I really liked this game! The transitions look really nice! The rate of play goes so fast hahah I tried to keep up but I would get arthritis or something hahahahahaa! I think this is a really fun game, and I think you hit a home run with this this submission! Great work, and I hope to see you in the next jam!
Reminds me of Viruses in the Mid 2000's. There was a sense of pageantry when your computer got infected, none of this modern "secretly mine cryptocurrency and avoid detection". Back then it was all about shovelling as much crap onto the infected computer as possible. I didn't think I'd get nostalgic playing this, but it happened! Great entry!
@beanslasher Thank you so much for those kind words! It's great to hear that you liked the game!
@sauski Thank you so much!
First match I got completely overwhelmed, but the second time I nicely used my folders and eventually I managed to get more space available than the size of the harddrive (-60mb/500mb). I did really have fun though, with a few minor changes this could be very entertaining! Very well done!
@hare-software Hehe, I'm gonna have to fix that bug
Awesome game!! Gets a bit repetitive, and the music also cut out after a while. Nicely done!!
@badduck I thought the new version fixed that bug, we'll try to fix it as fast as possible. But thanks for the positive feedback!
Edit: It has been fixed, thank you for the bug report
Very nice play style, I enjoyed it very much and smooth transitions!
The balancing felt a little off, but all of the mechanics were really solid. I loved the idea of grabbing a folder to sweep up stuff, but it definitely felt a bit unbalanced. It would be cool if there was maybe things you didn't want to delete that would pop in, so you had to be more careful and maybe drag things around to organize your desktop. Thanks for sharing the game with my stream, I had a blast playing it!
Fun game, the transitions were nice, and the UI as a whole felt pretty clean. It got kinda overwhelming after a bit, though.
very nice game :D I really enjoyed
- **Bluescreen** awesome - I like the **music**
- Cleaner, Defragmenter had **no effect** (probably a bug). - Progress bars hard to see (because of **low contrast**). - **Camera rotation** is overused and a bit too much. Maybe use a more subtle effect for transitions. - **Tutorial descriptions** are cut on some items.
I liked the idea of a file type hierarchie (e.g. zip can contain folders etc.). Some indicator when a zip file reached max size might be interesting.
Generally I think this is a solid entry with an unusual idea. The gameplay needs some tweaks to stay fresh though.
@anudin Thank you so much for the feedback! The no effect on the cleaner and defragmenter is definitely a bug, which we'll try to fix as soon as we can. Will definitely change the camera transitions so it wouldn't be just one camera rotation. We'll see what we can do with the tutorial description.
Your criticism means a lot for changing the game and making it better, thank you again!
@kassjak Glad to help. even though I have the feeling that the quality of feedback gets better from LD to LD I think there's still huge room for improvement. Better feedback gets us better games! People: dare to criticise and write more than "I liked it.". You'll get way more karma like that anyways.
This game is really cool! One suggestion I would make is that you should change the difficulty curve. I found all the difficulties way too easy and the game seemed to be going on forever without any action. The fake anti-virus is the only way I lost, and that was because I was curios what it would do to the computer, haha. Overall, this is a solid entry for Ludum Dare - and a fun one at that :)
@adonisdevs Thank you very much for your feedback! We have changed some settings for the game to be harder by its difficulty.
This is really cool! I didn't initially realize that zips and folders could just be dragged over other files to pick them up, but once I'd figured that out it got really fun. Difficulty takes a little while to ramp up, but wow does it get hard if you let it run! The only minor issue I had was that the trash bin / cleaner / defrag were slightly off the left of my screen - close enough I could see and read them, just partially covered. Other than that everything worked as described, and was really smooth. Neat design, and quite fun! I really loved the blue screen, too, it's a cool glitch-out effect.
@justinmullin Thank you so much, man!
Pretty cool idea, a little easy but that just takes some balancing passes to fix. Liked the concept of folders. Pretty cool blue-screen too
Nice interpretation of the Theme, I liked the Graphics. Overall nice Game!
Very well made graphics. After some time with one new file every second suddenly there spawned hundreds of files in very few seconds and I lost without any chance
Great take on the theme. Evast - love it! Liked the graphics. Is there a way to win or is it just to see how long you can survive? I ran the cleaner almost 9 minutes in and then didn't get any other files -- I guess I won!!! ;) One thing with the graphics, they're great, but due to the colors, I had a hard time seeing the text in the upper right corner.
It should speed up after a while.
@arcus I'm guessing you're talking about the file spawning. It actually does. If you want to play a quick game, then you should play hard mode because it has a faster spawn rate.
@kassjak Oh, well done then.
Congrats on coming up with such interesting concept and making it happen. Looks good as well. Nice touch adding difficulty choice, even though it's just a number representing space.
