Nice game. It starts easy and gets very difficult! :)

Great game you got here, controls are really smooth. I like the art style used as well. Get it finished past the turrents, would love to continue playing it

Wow this game is really awesome. I'm impressed ! My only gripe with the game were a few bugs tha cut my progression.

The graphics are really neat (by the way there is a slight glich layer wise, sometimes when the character is in front of a block the top of his head is rendered underneath said block).

The music is top notch and the fact that each new unlock changes it is awesome.

Fix the bugs, add a few other levels (like not small levels, but a few new environments with each 5 levels) and you got a game you can ship ! Great work man :ok_hand: !

very polished - great graphics and music but too bad it is unfinished - gret work

woah this is great! Such a great game feel. The changing music adds a lot to the suspense. the puzzles were very fun to solve. I really don't have any problems with this other than a lack of ending. Really good job!

This game is awesome! Love the art style and the music. The bullets have some real weight to them when you shoot. Introducing new mechanics with existing materials is great! Really great game!

nice game man, i liked how one little puzzle led into another

I'm glad I found this gem. When you have a limited amount of time to build worlds, it's very beneficial if you can build one world and re-use it in new ways, as you're fully aware, because this game is proof of that. You re-used the same space in smart and efficient ways. And, this game does get difficult, but it progresses nicely to that. It starts rather calm, and eventually builds to a hecticness. I liked the puzzles. My initial idea for the jam was something involving pipes, but I realized I'm not skilled enough to pull it off yet. So, this also gave me some ideas. So, in addition to being an enjoyable game, this also might prove to be an inspiration. Very well done. You should be proud.

Loved it, even though this is unfinished its still probably the best game i played so far. Didn't get to the turrets, had the engine on but after that i couldn't get past the one room with the giant fast spinning blade. Gameplay and design was excellent, graphics were cute and the music was really really good (after the first unlock at least). It took me The first alien crab game was also fun, I'm looking forward to the 3rd instalment. Excellent work, congrats.

Alright I'm sorry how does this game not have a bazillion votes and reviews??? You could have literally ended it right after turrets, sent the little guy off on a spaceship to Mars when you hit the lever or something and this game would still be amazing.

* Ridiculous polish on the graphics, animations, and camera * Super tight and responsive controls * *Dope* music that changes with each upgrade * An actual puzzle/action progression system with various mechanics introduced * Interesting puzzle mechanics in that! * A healthy dose of difficulty * A really cute MC design??

This is spectacular. I'm actually f*ckin upset that I found this in the "Danger" category instead of on the front page. Even in its unfinished state this game is more complete than the majority of games that I've played this LD. Do you have a Twitter account? I'd love to follow you, regardless whether or not you continue this game or move onto something else amazing.

Jesus christ.

Nice game you have here. SUPER WELL DONE!

Come check out my game if you like! https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/40/virus-detected

Nice game, though I stack in place with three buttons and two hatches, which spawn flying things. They always got stuck in walls near buttons and then game crashed.

Overall love game feeling (and space derelict entourage), main character (thats look like a skull frontally), activation of traps and backtracking through them, like in Prince of Persia. Great work!

Really like the level design, nice ramp up in difficulty. Game mechanics get introduced in a simple and understandable way then get combined with others or used in different ways. Good job, i really like it.

emilio-segura 2017-12-12 21:10

it gets harder every time but i like the challenge, nice job

knarf 2017-12-14 11:10

Great job ! It seems like it's really close to your initial scope, as there is almost just the ending screen missing to the game ; I've reached the last switch to activate and then get stuck, but it took me a lot of time and retries to get there ! The gamefeel is simplistic yet smooth, nice job on visuals, and great music as always :) I loved the weird mechanics that you always find and exploit brillantly to unlock new parts of the game : the pipes + simultaneous switchs + straightforward enemies combinations are very clever and tricky... That's a great comeback for the adventures of alien crab :) Cheers !

Congrats on 5th! Really happy that this game was recognized.

The problem of gambling can have a detrimental effect on personal finances as chasing losses becomes unmanageable. In addition to spending on wages, savings and free cash, debt can also be a characteristic of problem gambling as a result of borrowing and borrowing to cover gambling losses, but whoever plays smart can make money on it, I often playing casino from reviews https://play.casino/payments/muchbetter/ and I manage to win a little.

Your desire, excitement, and aspiration are heard, go https://1depositcasinouk.com/ . Try your luck and share your emotions. Don't forget who risks wins.

What a difficult game! It reminded me a bit of terraria with its gameplay and design, but it's unmatched in complexity. I already felt how a couple of my nerve cells said goodbye to me forever)

2022-11-26 10:37

Are you still playing games, or are you already moving in a big way?

This is actually the first time I've heard of this game. But I can say with certainty that starting from the age of 14, children and teenagers are not interested in such games. Either they play something big or think about making money first. Personally, I started earning at the age of 16. Now I'm 22, and I have my own mansion, car, and a lot of other things. And thanks, what do you think? You won't believe it, but it's all gambling. Many people are skeptical and can't think that you can make money by acting strategically on this. In the meantime, I, on the other hand, with the help of https://rich-palms-casinos.com/, am making money.
