LD40 — The more you have, the worse it is

thanks, I hate it! by thristhart 2017-12-05T04:37:36Z

really fun! started to lag out around 250, tho

Chitin Conquest by Zac McDonald 2017-12-11T00:38:01Z

very difficult to make any progress whatsoever since the camera rocks back and forth making it very hard to see when you're trying and failing to shoot backwards and defend yourself. if this wasn't the case, i probably would have had a much more positive experience. other than that, the visuals were pretty great.

The Rubber Robbery by TheMadStrauss 2017-12-06T21:49:52Z

therubberrobbery.jpg

super fun concept! had a lot of fun. music is awesome, too

DROP by Syrapt0r 2017-12-04T21:23:54Z

difficult but fun! wish the art was a little more cohesive. maybe some music, and a little instruction at the beginning. other than that, i had a lot of fun! good work

Rogue Intelligence by Ayxs 2017-12-04T20:41:43Z

really neat game! i did think, though, that the slowing down mechanic was more of an annoyance than a challenge. i didn't really feel motivated to finish the game after my walk speed was reduced to almost nothing. other than that, cool puzzle game with a nice atmosphere! music was quite good too

A time paradox by lythom 2017-12-04T16:52:45Z

fantastic game! really fun, challenging with a unique gameplay concept. music is wonderful, wish there was some more sound design though. overall, really great game!

Chaos Space Kitchen by seano 2017-12-05T02:00:55Z

fun, but controls are a little floaty

A Platformer for Ants by Elendow 2017-12-10T21:51:31Z

fantastic idea! music was great.

Robox! by ted 2017-12-10T21:44:31Z

i really loved the aesthetics of this game, i think you really got a great style going! the gameplay definitely had heart in it, and i did have fun. it was definitely missing sound (i'm aware you did a post-compo update to fix this though) and some sort of tutorial, but besides those things i thought it was a great entry! good work.

Curse of Greed by Sophie Houlden 2017-12-07T22:07:45Z

awesome balancing mechanic. had a lot of fun!

Earl's Quest by wujood 2017-12-08T23:57:36Z

i love the style, but i have to say there was way too much uninteresting wandering around for me. i really expected more to happen after the very beginning of the game. perhaps i was just on the wrong path? anyways, it's pretty solid RPG with amusing writing. good work!

Life's A Glitch by gamepopper 2017-12-09T22:10:58Z

fun, but a little too difficult too quickly.

Asteroids Attack by Kutase 2017-12-06T22:26:15Z

managed to get 4920! that was a ton of fun. really good twist on asteroids!

Mr. Capital! by fluidvolt 2017-12-09T03:30:52Z

like others have said, the controls were pretty frustrating. i thinks it's because you can't move mid-air, but i could be wrong. besides that, i thought it was an awesome entry and really enjoyed the humor! and music!

mr-capital.JPG

edit: ok upon a further listen i realized i really love the music a lot! do you think i could an mp3 download of it? thanks!

Stacks by torfi 2017-12-09T22:00:22Z

i loved the sounds the stacks made so much

Fox Flares by aeveis 2017-12-09T22:16:37Z

fun mechanic, but it is very hard to control haha

It's the Wurst by A-Flat Miner Studios 2017-12-06T21:10:57Z

neat

Slightly annoying traffic by JOrbits 2017-12-08T01:21:58Z

fun lil car game!

Glitched by tomer_cool 2017-12-04T21:11:05Z

ohyeah.JPG

fun game! just wish you had gone a little farther with it (audio glitches, more challenging levels, etc.) didn't really feel like there was much of a challenge

CalligraTree by Roaring Cat Games 2017-12-08T01:03:14Z

beautiful, calm little toy. i love seeing unusual game ideas like this in LD.

Mushroom Délicieux by TRASEVOL_DOG 2017-12-10T19:35:38Z

love it!

SUPER COP HERO by Finlal 2017-12-11T00:58:32Z

lots of fun! very challenging

Presents by gilborn 2017-12-04T21:04:59Z

pretty amusing game! i love the surreal voice that keeps yelling into my ear

Sores by bradleysmith 2017-12-05T04:30:37Z

nice, cohesive games! everything about it seems like it does exactly what you wanted it to do.

Tower Snake by superfrog 2017-12-06T20:14:56Z

i agree with everyone else here that your choice of platform is fantastic! as for the game, it's a simple, challenging take on snake, which totally fits the theme to a tee. good work!

S - The Game by Stadoblech 2017-12-09T20:37:12Z

super interesting mechanic! i enjoyed this a lot

Dungeon Of Steel by Steel_Dev 2017-12-06T20:39:33Z

had fun, but didn't feel like it was much of a challenge up until the boss fight. kinda wish there had been more types of enemies. i did enjoy the descriptions of the items, though :)

Make Ludum Dare Great Again by ultimategrinder 2017-12-06T22:30:44Z

nice soundtrack

Be Yourself by Noa Calice 2017-12-09T00:16:48Z

awesome, unique entry! i love the idea, but can't help but nitpick a few things. the audio (music, sfx) could definitely be a lot better, and the game becomes almost impossible much too quickly. a more forgiving difficulty curve and perhaps some more content would help a lot. aside from all that, i thought the art style and visuals were fantastic! i agree with everyone else about the Edmund McMillen thing. good work!

Dog-Off! by BrothersT 2017-12-05T05:35:51Z

AWESOME game! art, music, sound, gameplay all really well put together. glad you added a leaderboard too :)

The More the Not So Much Merriblobs by pinneh 2017-12-08T01:06:46Z

simple and entertaining!

Cardhoard by HacksawUnit 2017-12-08T23:45:44Z

this is the best arcade-style game I've played this jam! really awesome work. the only things i would like to see are music and a leaderboard, but those are definitely minor bonuses in comparison to what you have already. :eye:

Billy the giant hates dancing paragliders on a boat by Rombus 2017-12-06T20:09:29Z

fun lil game! really feels finished and cohesive. great work! (i also enjoyed the music quite a bit)

Big Pockets by Jeremy Ryan 2017-12-05T06:06:24Z

link seems to be broken @jeremy-ryan

Big Pockets by Jeremy Ryan 2017-12-05T16:17:08Z

fun idea! id love to see this more fleshed out. really liked the music

Horny Bunny by Thomas FUentes 2017-12-08T01:46:45Z

wow... good work guys

Critter Clutter by Burgee 2017-12-08T00:07:03Z

adorable, simple and well made! good work, guys

Hyper diapers by Gaziter 2017-12-10T19:29:44Z

really fun, challenging and lighthearted game! love it a lot

Scavenger by Stefan Richings 2017-12-07T22:03:09Z

really creepy & cool game. loved the visuals and the atmosphere!

Santas Unwanted Helper: Reindeer Revolution by ponker 2017-12-06T22:40:13Z

really fun game! i love the art, camera effects, mechanics, music, etc. good work guys!

LUGO by Bonelazy 2017-12-06T22:01:56Z

after my first goal, the car seems to want to drive rapidly backwards without my input? anyways, really impressive for 72 hours

Cushion Catastrophe by Riemann Integrable 2017-12-04T21:43:59Z

fun lil cat game! definitely could be a little more connected to the theme though

Carl Hates Christmas by gwinnell 2017-12-09T00:30:52Z

haaa this game was sick! i really found myself having a lot of fun. i didn't really want it to end when it did, even. the music was jammin, too.

Between Stations by Sand-Gardeners 2017-12-06T21:40:52Z

amazing writing and atmosphere. i ADORE games like this, and you guys got it just right. can't wait to see what you guys come up with next LD!

tvland.JPG

MEGA by Yetman 2017-12-06T22:07:36Z

cool idea, but was a little short. wished there were some music or at least some sound effects.

KRANKSWONK by Remzo 2017-12-04T16:23:55Z

really pretty game! i enjoyed the puzzle

CTRL FRK by slovnoslomo 2017-12-09T21:56:10Z

really neat idea but i felt like it'd eventually go towards the goal no matter what i did, so it was kind of just a game of waiting

Dense Revolve by fiaKaiera 2017-12-09T00:46:21Z

only after i figured out that really the only way to reliably do damage to the vortex was to go down to one bullet and wall-jump did i start having fun. i think this has a lot of potential but there wasn't enough there to keep me interested after i completed it. i did enjoy it, though!

Basher Builder by Noxbuds 2017-12-04T16:14:43Z

the damage system seems a little arbitrary but hey i liked the log

Frostbite by Blinkeye 2017-12-06T20:04:47Z

neat idea, love the art!

Home Decoration. by RickSquanchez 2017-12-06T22:14:15Z

pretty fun, but definitely left me wanting more.

Infestus by Handle 2017-12-05T04:25:36Z

fun! really irritating when the grubs get caught on walls though.

Snake Charmer by fakeyou 2017-12-04T21:41:11Z

fun take on a classic game! could use some music and maybe a little more visual variety. also this can happen: oopsnake.jpg

A Spark of Light by TurbulentWinds 2017-12-09T21:24:29Z

really cool style, but i felt like the light meter text removed some of the immersion

Brewry by Lumme 2017-12-04T20:47:09Z

interestingly, combining everything seems to result in the game simply stating "the customer."

Drunken Soviet by Neferius 2017-12-09T22:09:00Z

lots of fun, also im really dizzy now thx

Neighborhood's Madness by grostonton 2017-12-06T20:01:28Z

not really sure what was happening the entire time i was playing, but at least i won?

Raul VS Mo the Ghost ... alawacagabainAM by Dokalfar 2017-12-04T16:59:01Z

pretty fun! im really a sucker for these types of games. music is great, sound is great, graphics are wonderful. i got 28269 points :)

Npigs by 6smith 2017-12-04T15:47:22Z

@arron the missing characters is a bug, thanks for pointing that out. not sure why your name didnt get put on. (ill fix these soon :)) dropping to the ground only changes your current score, not your high score (the score in parenthesis) and if you drop far enough, your pig will go BLAM and your score will jump to your next highest pig. thanks for playin!

@riemann-integrable thank you! checkpoints were one of the features i considered adding, but instead i opted for pig-death (which doesn't seem to happen very often, so...) anyways, thanks for playing!

everyone else: thank you guys for playing! make sure you leave a rating and ill be returning the favor on your games :)

Npigs by 6smith 2017-12-04T20:48:02Z

@arron lol i saw that! good job @thomas288 for finding an easy way to get points

Npigs by 6smith 2017-12-05T06:00:54Z

thanks for all the comments guys! <3

Npigs by 6smith 2017-12-06T22:57:04Z

@tim-eriksen yeah since this is my first time i didn't really understand all of the compo rules. my foolishness aside, the bug where you push your own pigs through platforms was something i dearly wanted to fix, but didn't have time to as it was an issue with the physics system the game engine came with. anyways, thanks for playing!

Npigs by 6smith 2017-12-07T16:44:01Z

oh man, lots of stuff to address here!

@krasse i probably will make a post-LD version, and yes, one thing i definitely want to add is custom controls.

@budgiem2 it's true that you have to adjust your play style the farther you get. i think the pig death mechanic works well for some play styles, and checkpoints for others. in a post-LD version i think i'll probably add checkpoints. oh yeah, the L-shaped ones are actually rectangular because i didn't realize the engine only supports rectangular hitboxes. i didn't end up having time to fix that lol

@andreas-ragen-ayal pigs die after they have been falling for a little more than two seconds. i think a mix of pig death and checkpoints might be the way forward for a post-LD version.

@yetman it is endless!

thanks for your comments, everybody! i hope i've been able to address most of your questions.

Npigs by 6smith 2017-12-07T20:21:55Z

@trabitboy you're totally right that having a lot of pigs is annoying especially at the beginning. i've noticed that many people decide to skip getting pigs at the beginning in order to get their first couple hundred points easier. after you get high enough, dropping a pig results in their death, allowing the player to choose how many pigs they want to use. a solution to this problem might be placing the first extra pig much higher up the level, so that by the time you get there you are better at platforming reliably and you can skip the frustrating act of dropping a pig and having to get them back up again. anyways, there are definitely some changes that can be made to make the beginning much more forgiving and give each player a little more time to develop a strategy. something for me to think about! thanks for playing.

Npigs by 6smith 2017-12-08T06:10:21Z

@burgee the music is public domain work, see a few messages above for the explanation :)

the level is procedural! you get a new one every time you refresh the page. it's also endless!

nope, i was not the one who suggested that theme. it's an even funnier coincidence considering that at least one other game uses a three-color palette!

thanks for playing!

Npigs by 6smith 2017-12-09T03:17:43Z

@triastase you're totally right, and its something i tried to alleviate. guess i didn't get it quite right! (also there is a way to lose! it's just not very common among heights lower than ~500) thanks for playing!

Npigs by 6smith 2017-12-13T17:42:43Z

@icylava it's funny you mention the minimap, because that's definitely something i'm planning on adding in a post-jam version. thanks for playing!

Panic Blocks by Darkfire92 2017-12-04T06:19:47Z

really good job on the visuals. fun but challenging, maybe missing a deeper theme connection? (not that I'm one to talk) :eye:

Shoot and Die by LifeHack 2017-12-05T05:52:59Z

even though it is rough, i did have fun playing it! good work

Christmas Present by Jons games 2017-12-06T22:52:51Z

super innovative! challenging, fun and well-made. good work!

Feed Them by Fis 2017-12-08T01:16:28Z

love the art and the music. really wish there were some sound effects, though

25 - The Golden Age by Ambeurk 2017-12-06T20:19:18Z

i really enjoyed the running mechanic of self reflection and predicting how your choices will affect different aspects of your life. good work!

Evil Money by interpol 2017-12-09T21:48:29Z

Super Trader 64 by WildGamut 2017-12-06T21:55:04Z

had kind of a hard time controlling the cat. other than that, fun idea and i loved the art!

Phool by ciaccodavide 2017-12-09T00:07:29Z

ooo do i love this type of game! it was pretty damn fun, and the aesthetics are fantastic! i kinda wished that there were more visuals effects for like bullet collisions, enemy deaths, stronger enemies, etc. overall, a great entry!

Glutonny by Crock 2017-12-04T16:19:13Z

pretty neat concept. wish there was a little more content, though.

Snowballing Out of Control! by Shipshape Detour 2017-12-05T05:58:41Z

Don't get drunk by tulipekoni 2017-12-09T00:23:13Z

had some fun playing! managed to do pretty well:

dont-get-drunk.JPG

some things i enjoyed: - the challenge of platforming while drunk - the little dude with his little hood

some things i didn't really enjoy: - the music could use some help - maybe a little more variety on the roof besides red boxes?

altogether, i thought this was a pretty neat entry. good work!

The Shepherd by TheTopHatNoob 2017-12-04T20:57:47Z

neat concept! i wish the wolf-hit-with-stick sound was slightly less cacophonous, though. definitely fits the theme.

Statues by giucapan 2017-12-05T15:21:23Z

one of the most unique games i've played this jam. really fantastic work

Clumsy Paws by sovogirl 2017-12-04T21:32:37Z

one of the best jam games i've seen! art, audio and concept are all incredible. lots of personality, too! (also i loved the game over screen...)

ohwow.JPG

good job guys!

Thousand Kisses of Death by secretstage 2017-12-05T05:44:00Z

fantastic game! fun, simple and with good art and music. pretty atmospheric, too

Oh no! Zombies! by Benjamin San Souci 2017-12-05T04:42:55Z

cool concept! had a lot of fun until the game crashed around wave 4

LD45 — Start with nothing

Batulathil by thristhart 2019-10-07T22:52:33Z

The "Going the Distance" quest doesn't seem to work. I have 8+ cards in a single deck and nothing has happened. Bug?

Batulathil by thristhart 2019-10-08T14:27:39Z

@thristhart Thanks for the clarification! However, I'm now getting this error when trying to play the game: Screenshot from 2019-10-08 08-26-25.png

It's stuck on the loading screen :(

Batulathil by thristhart 2019-10-09T14:12:54Z

@thristhart thanks for all the help! very enjoyable game, interesting concept.

A thrilling story

No.thing by adliberum 2019-10-27T15:14:56Z

what an awesome little text game! short, but very entertaining.

Better than nothing by Fictions 2019-10-27T22:57:22Z

awesome concept! fun and simple. a little rough around the edges, but definitely in top 5% of submissions

ØJE by Gaming Night 2019-10-27T23:02:47Z

absolutely phenomenal art! some of the best i've seen this jam. gameplay is a little confusing however, but still very fun and interesting. good work!

Ad Infinitum by 6smith 2019-10-07T03:59:41Z

@bjeaurn @bobotast @pavel-ivanov @musicblox @bagenzo @ordineu Thanks for all the comments!

Ad Infinitum by 6smith 2019-10-22T13:58:00Z

@hitchh1k3r thanks for the comments! not sure if you noticed, but the header text does change... not much of a story, but it's definitely there. also i remember playing Curiosity! what an awesome concept that fell so flat lol

Ad Infinitum by 6smith 2019-10-27T14:29:10Z

@hitchh1k3r ... I never expected somebody to get that far! That's very impressive lol... The following should help you:

!> You win the game by sacrificing enough friends, if you don't sacrifice any friends, the game goes on forever and the list of messages runs out, thus leaving a message "undefined".

Space Crash by Xacur 2019-10-07T02:53:38Z

Frustrating when the aliens still get to move while your're in a dialogue, like when picking up a stone or whatever. Art is quite nice, though.

Cast Away by OrdiNeu 2019-10-07T03:32:09Z

Cool little game! Love the music.

HEARTSCAPE by ZakAmana 2019-10-27T22:38:02Z

Scrap Attack by TheseusInABottle 2019-10-07T14:17:37Z

- love the character art. - It's annoying that the pieces of scrap just disappear, especially if you are going for one - Sometimes depositing into the bin doesn't work fun little game!

Generic Joe by LyghtningWither 2019-10-07T14:23:53Z

good stuff dude

Egg Farm by kuviman 2019-10-07T03:28:44Z

Really interesting concept! Pretty fun, difficult though.

Yogurt's Quest by Aurailus 2019-10-07T03:18:25Z

Very pretty, also very difficult. Wish there were save points of some sort.

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T04:11:43Z

Fun, hectic little tower defense type of game. Would've been nice to have waves and time to set up the area, though.

Mr.Grind by iozsaygi 2019-10-07T03:13:27Z

Great little clicker/idle game.

Orb Override by MusicBlox 2019-10-07T04:08:26Z

Very difficult to figure out what to do, even with the instructions.

Egg Problem by Bry 2019-10-07T03:45:14Z

Awesome, very solid tower defense

Sokobaiogenesis by Bagenzo 2019-10-07T03:22:23Z

Interesting little puzzle. Mechanics are somewhat difficult to master. Got stuck pretty fast.

afdsfgs fgsdg sd by Tacokhun 2019-10-07T14:21:03Z

fun eating/growing type of game! i love that it's a bunch of sperm of different sizes eating each other.

Start Powerless by rob1221dev 2019-10-07T03:40:13Z

great game! nice and simple mechanics, well designed levels. graphics and sound effects are great.

Shadow of Archimedes by Eckkert 2020-10-05T23:29:07Z

that was a really fantastic experience! i went in without reading the description and i was still able to figure out what to do with only a little trial and error, and eventually i beat it! really interesting mechanics and take on the theme, nice graphics and music, good minimal UI. the only thing i would suggest is maybe an icon on the machines to indicate what they produce. really awesome fulfilling experience, good work you guys!!

Convolooption by potatopancakes 2020-10-06T02:53:15Z

great arcade game! sometimes i do feel a little cheated, though, like i shouldve captured something but i didnt. overall, a good application of the lasso concept!

ray caster racing js by awesomearcade365 2020-10-05T23:02:18Z

you sure are stuck in a loop haha! good one!

SORO BORO by nethead 2020-10-06T03:27:46Z

awesome game and concept, really enjoyed it. some of the timing with enemies could be a little more forgiving, though! if it didnt get so hard i might be more motivated to try and finish it!

LD48 — Deeper and deeper

Manic Miner by ryannielson 2021-05-02T01:50:08Z

nice simple game, would love to see maybe a little bit more in terms of mechanics but it is pretty great how it is.

self reflection by torcado 2021-04-29T00:03:18Z

brilliant as usual man. we actually ended up on pretty similar ideas! although you definitely put out a more complete and polished experience, and considering this was a compo its super impressive. i really liked the tone and the concept of literal and metaphorical self-reflection, it just worked so well. the puzzles were very well-made, that last one was nice and tough. just like with my submission i wish there were more puzzles!

Holey Hell by managore 2021-05-05T17:22:24Z

just about perfect

Nuclear blaze by deepnight 2021-05-02T04:37:29Z

incredible! only complaint is that the distance between checkpoints can be a little too long

One-Butt Alien Corridor by PeachTreeOath 2021-05-01T04:28:43Z

great concept!

Financial Depths by joh 2021-05-02T02:17:42Z

i like the concept a lot, really unique take on the theme!

Not So Grimm by Rongefilet 2021-05-02T02:11:07Z

i like the aesthetic and the atmosphere a lot, but i feel like it needed a little bit more to break up the monotony. i appreciate a game that isnt more than exploring a nice environment, but it was pretty repetitive

Deepest Sword by Strega 2021-04-28T05:40:22Z

10/10 game crashed tho lmao

Worm Excavation League by HacksawUnit 2021-04-28T23:20:29Z

brilliant arcade game as usual dude. always love playing your submissions they're baller. keep it up!!

Telekinetic kalamari by jandourek 2021-05-02T02:23:33Z

i liked where it was going but the blocks were way too bouncy and progressing just got a little too frustrating for me :((

Dangerous Mine by fraanns 2021-05-04T05:55:04Z

i played a bit :))

Screenshot 2021-05-03 233617.png

impressive that u had unlimited world generation, and the break and collecting of coins was very satisfying. i did feel like i hit a point where there wasnt much reason to continue, but i guess it was a longer wait to that point than most entries. honestly the weapons were kinda useless. if the enemies didnt collide with each other it wouldnt feel like there's impenetrable walls to get through. maybe the background should look more like dirt / cave, not sky? since there are only 5 items anyways, why not just have them at set places in the hot select wheel?? was very frustrating to have to go into your inventory to grab things every time you used up an item.

overall, i had fun :))

Bucket: A Space Odyssey by Carraka 2021-04-28T22:45:47Z

fantastic job!! i wouldve liked to see something to break up the wall of text a bit, but it didnt take away from the writing, which was great. i think i got the bad ending lmao

Suluben by kromeboy 2021-04-29T02:17:33Z

nice and simple idea, well implemented. would've appreciated some sound effects though!

I Stole a Wizard's Sack and All I Got Was This Lousy Infinite Pocket Universe by 6smith 2021-04-27T21:32:11Z

@landerack thank you for playing! that level is definitely trickier than the first two, so, here's something to help you and other peeps out:

Hint for Level 4

(Level 4 is the first level with holes) !> You have to hit the buttons in numerical order, 1 then 2 then 3. The sequence you have pressed is shown on the floor in each room. Just following the holes will take you 1 to 3 to 2. You have to move each bag to the correct room so that using the bags to travel between them will take you from 1 to 2 to 3. You may get the button order off by one or two, so that you hit them 2,3,1 or 3,1,2. you can use the holes to fix that offset, because pressing any 3 buttons will reset the sequence. For level 6 you have to plan it out more, and if you get off by one you have to restart.

hope that helps! remember that you can restart a level by pressing R. and if you need another hint for this level or any other level i'm happy to write more!

I Stole a Wizard's Sack and All I Got Was This Lousy Infinite Pocket Universe by 6smith 2021-04-28T21:20:52Z

@fraanns @heyllopotato @bamallama @sam-machell @faithcaio @whismirk @oligue @stefan-laimer @dalloner @labete thanks y'all for playing!! i really appreciate all the comments. ive seen a couple suggestions to develop a full game, which i was thinking about doing anyways. so if you're interested, and have an itch.io account, please consider [giving me a follow](https://itch.io/login?return_to=https%3A%2F%2Fben-m.itch.io%2F&intent=follow_user) for updates! making good puzzles is tough and i'd really love to have some feedback as i continue to create them and learn.

I Stole a Wizard's Sack and All I Got Was This Lousy Infinite Pocket Universe by 6smith 2021-04-28T22:56:01Z

@doc-kaos if i understand you correctly i think it wasnt clear enough that you cant take items up the rope out of a bag, so you have to figure out how to get the key to the door by only taking items into bags. if you mean opening the door with the key didnt work, then oops! thats a bug :)) anyways, thanks for playing!

@backurio i really wish i had allocated my time better because i have a lot of ideas for more puzzles, as well as ways to introduce the mechanics more gradually. hoping to get your feedback again on the post-jam version!! thanks for playing!

@no-grapes-games yeah i lost a lot of sleep on this lmao. glad you enjoyed it!!

@rovernoon good suggestions, all things i will keep in mind when working on the full game. thanks for playing!

@panurge that makes me happy to hear lol, thanks to y'all for playing!

I Stole a Wizard's Sack and All I Got Was This Lousy Infinite Pocket Universe by 6smith 2021-05-01T16:17:12Z

@hybitous soon :wink:

@kromeboy ah sorry you had trouble with that, ill make sure to change that in the full version

@dninosores glad you enjoyed it! thanks for playing!

@andrewkennedy thank you!! there is a hint for level 4 if you scroll up in the comments, it may help you

I Stole a Wizard's Sack and All I Got Was This Lousy Infinite Pocket Universe by 6smith 2021-05-04T04:49:44Z

@bender-biber thanks for playing! ill definitely be working on a full version of the game with more levels, so if you're interested you can follow my itch.io page [here](https://ben-m.itch.io/)

@jandourek thank you! thats a great suggestion, ill have to try to think of a good way to implement that.

Rip Deeper by Hozoku 2021-05-02T01:34:43Z

the art and music is amazing, super impressive. unfortunately i think the controls and the gameplay needed some attention. the controls were very difficult to use and the tutorial was unclear. some highlighting of what you were about to interact with or where you were about to place something wouldve been a good addition. attacking also felt kinda sluggish. i like the idea, and these issues are certainly fixable. all in all, i think y'all did a good job!

Ski Trip by Rhoka 2021-04-29T04:04:08Z

that was awesome no complaints just that i want more lol

Super Turtle Drop by JavaSaurus 2021-04-28T23:13:21Z

rlly fun little arcade game! it does seem that the winning strategy is simply to dig straight down until you hit a metal tetromino, then carefully dig around it to continue digging straight down again. i just did that until i got what i figured was the highest score then gave up lol

Screenshot 2021-04-28 170838.png

maybe you could discourage a degenerate strategy like that by punishing the player a little more for not getting the time blocks things? also it would be nice to know how close the spikes are to you

Bunny Bunny Dig Dig by ZakAmana 2021-05-02T04:26:30Z

amazing game. pretty much 10/10 except there isnt a whole lot of content, but its a jam game so obviously nothing against yall for that!

Worm by Jess_Foley 2021-04-28T05:10:49Z

loved this lmao really awesome take on the theme, took me a minute to realized how to gain points, could just be me though

Chthonic Brilliance by cassowary 2021-05-01T04:23:49Z

great little puzzle game, no complaints!

Shrink and Destroy by Tomssuli 2021-04-29T04:15:13Z

loved the voice acting

The Icarus by PowerAnze 2021-05-02T01:47:01Z

really interesting game, i like the idea and the look/feel of it a lot. i do feel like the radar mechanic would be a little less frustrating if the points moved with the camera in the X/Y axis like they do with the Z (up/down) axis?

Sblaaf!! by Thob 2021-04-28T22:15:47Z

love the art and the music of course!! havent heard that song in a while lmao

was having fun but i did manage to get stuck on a rock:

Screenshot 2021-04-28 161325.png

overall good job guys!

Driller by CookieRA 2021-05-02T05:07:34Z

i like it! i did manage to get stuck in the shop though lol

The Deep Unknown by SirRafufl 2021-05-01T22:06:54Z

fun! i liked the art. it could be a little confusing where the next checkpoint or end gate was though, maybe a minimap?

Cursed Cave by Bender Biber 2021-05-01T03:45:09Z

could be a little brighter, couldnt really see anything. is there any way to regain health? i seem to just die before i get very far. also a more satisfying feedback when hitting things would've been nice

Psychedelic by SaltFactory Studio 2021-04-29T03:05:39Z

unique entry! really liked the style. i wish it was a little longer! i also would've liked not to have to stop so suddenly when hitting an obstacle, maybe instead of colliding and having to walk off it you could just lose your momentum but then keep falling? good job all!

Bomb Miner! by Parsafari 2021-04-29T04:05:06Z

nothin better than the classics

Sausage Void by Wyzard 2021-04-28T04:48:46Z

as a big sausage fan i approve of this game would be nice to have some sort of feedback when pressing the buttons tho

Cavin' by HeylloPotato 2021-05-04T04:52:21Z

lmao i was just starting to really get into it when it ended! good work

GodMode by Landerack 2021-05-02T05:02:23Z

loved the art! i liked the idea, but the controls did feel a little strange. i wish the player image changed direction to match the direction of movement, and maybe some sort of indication of how much velocity you are going to get when you press trigger. also an indication of when you were taking damage would be good to, maybe by getting knocked back a bit, with a flash of red on your player maybe? anyways, all in all a good idea. enjoyed it!

Untitled Simulator by Eugenik 2021-04-28T22:58:32Z

had an absolute blast with this lol super creative take on the theme i love it

Dig Deaper by wigglewigglestudios 2021-04-28T04:53:25Z

like the idea, progression could be a bit more forgiving tho

I'm So Deep by liammasters 2021-05-02T04:44:18Z

interesting idea! apparently you can just keep winning by repeating her exact poem lol

Asterisk by Crychair 2021-05-02T04:53:01Z

nice little game. i liked the voice acting! i did have some trouble understanding when the mines were triggered and were about to explode, some sort of indication of that would've been nice. i also felt the gravity was a bit slow. i did like the art, it was very well done. overall, good work!!

Body Venture by Storm_Rider 2021-04-28T02:18:14Z

good game, although i had some trouble getting past the second level. couldnt seem to stack them boxes! is there a trick to it??

Dive & Dig by andrewkennedy 2021-05-01T03:24:11Z

interesting idea! wished that there was a little more of a challenge though, some more mechanics maybe also being able to turn your rig without moving would be nice

Follow My Voice by coyotethursday 2021-05-01T03:08:27Z

love it, very creative. short and sweet.

Memeco 0.02 by LeYaoTang 2021-04-28T04:43:20Z

scratches the bizarre itch pretty good. managed to get the train stuck after getting two corpses in the house? not sure if bug or i was doing something wrong. love the style tho

IO - LudumDare 48 by Andrea Barbani 2021-05-01T03:40:57Z

fun platformer! i did have an issue where the dialogue would pop up and fade away several times before bringing me to the next level

Deep In the Ocean by angrySandwich 2021-04-28T05:03:20Z

the music started to hurt me a little, and i think it could use an increase in difficulty as you go further down. overall pretty fun though! my best was 1500

Suichu by Staber 2021-05-01T03:51:41Z

really loved the art! i liked where you were going with this but the gameplay could use some work. its unclear what things hurt you before falling into them, its very easy to get stuck on platforms, and the low gravity is kinda frustrating. its also very short.

Deep Breath by Saltysa 2021-05-02T02:04:07Z

liked the idea and the art! i did manage to get stuck in a loop of spawning / dying where i didnt have time to press E long enough to make the thing attacking me go away tho :(

LD49 — Unstable

Cassie's Hat by thristhart 2021-10-05T00:42:10Z

enjoying it so far, though unfortunately i have to inform you that half of the art got anti-aliased to hell: https://i.imgur.com/IYhgS6c.png

edit: i think its just my goofy ass browser, works fine in Edge

edit2: it was my dark mode extension lmao

edit3: how did i get -103 sturdiness

- would be nice to be able to see what status effects characters have and what they do - looks like the plunge attack is broken unfortunately: https://i.imgur.com/xCpo342.png

edit4: just finished it! very fun, i liked the characters and the combat was not bad. just wish there was more!

gunstable by torcado 2021-10-04T22:20:11Z

fun little arcade shooter! i really enjoyed this one. the removing weapons mechanic is pretty interesting.

You won't believe your result from this personality test! by allthebees 2021-10-05T01:11:21Z

Psychogoat Collapse by 6smith 2021-10-05T18:39:26Z

@ekun @nethead @grumpy-gecko @aderpychickenstudios thanks for the comments!!

@cottontshirtz @diego-escalante yeah the rooms fitting together better would've been nice, although part of the challenge is intended to be from rooms that dont quite fit together and create a difficult platforming puzzle. unfortunately they are just impossible sometimes, which i agree definitely isnt fair. anyways, thanks for playing!

@david-bohan i think both just made among us lmao

Psychogoat Collapse by 6smith 2021-10-11T18:07:39Z

@tombuston @ddrkirbyisq @dinwy @itzemii @nate954 @ildfuglen @fabdynamic thanks for playing y'all! and thank you for all the suggestions, hopefully ill have time to work on an updated post-jam version.

Shaky Shack by Brusi 2021-10-05T18:32:45Z

very well executed idea! i like the idea of randomizing the spell book but i think it makes it a little too difficult. if you could memorize the spell book there would be a bit more replay value

Trauma by AdamCYounis 2021-10-05T19:37:42Z

incredible entry! interesting puzzle mechanic, and i thought the writing was very good.

Grabanakki by Saturnyoshi 2021-10-05T18:56:15Z

dang this like a full ass game

seriously though this is incredible! only complaint so far as that there's a bit of annoying bug where you can be inside the grey blocks, then if you try to pick it up from inside it just takes whatever's beneath you instead

Prodosia by Morhailen 2021-10-07T03:19:20Z

incredible unique entry!! short, sweet, good writing, *amazing* voice acting, interesting story... it has it all, honestly. only (minor) complaint is that the text can be hard to read sometimes, would've benefitted from a dark outline

Tables & Tremors by SlimmerBurger 2021-10-07T03:28:18Z

nice game! i like the style and concept a lot, but for a parkour game i feel like the FOV is way too low :(

Potion Commotion by Frozendoze 2021-10-08T02:04:41Z

super well executed idea! no complaints honestly

TECHNUCLEAR by TheGreenWorm 2021-10-08T02:16:35Z

came for the game play, stayed for the sound design

best audio of any entry fr

the gameplay was very good too, very polished

AstroJump by odedro987 2021-10-06T20:56:13Z

for what there is, it is well done! though i kinda wish there was a bit more content, also im not really sure i see the connection to the theme

Stable Inc. by CorbenG 2021-10-05T01:22:52Z

im red/green colorblind and this was painful to play lmao

Kattonauten by Elastic 2021-10-05T19:23:34Z

great idea and execution! unfortunately i ran into the bug that everyone else has and got stuck in a wall. maybe a workaround could have been allowing the restart button to be pressed any time?

anyways, i really enjoyed it. wonderful work!

LD50 — Delay the inevitable

Shotgun King: the Final Checkmate by benjamin 2022-04-07T17:11:31Z

great idea executed perfectly - really well balanced challenge - great replayability - extremely polished - incredible style and art

amazing job y'all! you've seriously outdone yourselves

Demon Sigil by Justin Herrick 2022-04-07T16:42:21Z

nice little game! a few things i noticed: - since the bullets come out of the tip of the gun instead of the center of the player, aiming north and south isnt accurate - the bullets dont travel to where your mouse actually is - the ammo pickups are difficult to see, but that might just be me - having to click for every shot is kinda annoying

anyways, i did enjoy the game. good work!

chronis by torcado 2022-04-06T14:44:45Z

very interesting idea! there's definitely a lot of strategy to be utilized here, certainly not an easy game. it quickly becomes challenging to remember what happened in the past and how to use that info effectively. maybe needs a slightly more forgiving speed increase?

anyways, i always love seeing your submissions! great work as always

Terminal Hydrophilia by 6smith 2022-04-07T18:26:11Z

@larsdu @mopifish @zack-hd @ezykill @janniz @willoxs @phobos001 @hajpappan @simba @collin-visser

thanks for playing everyone! i really appreciate the detailed feedback.

to address your general suggestions, here are the features i was planning but didnt get the time to implement, as well as things im aware need fixing: - increase in size or some other visible evolution of the player bubble - particle effects and other kinds of visual effects for various things - more pickups, as well as a systematic bullet styling that respects all the upgrades you've picked up so far - more enemies! i had so many ideas that i didnt get a chance to add: - ice enemies that are immune to freeze bullets and much stronger. these would also have a distinct visual style, as well as the ability to damage you by running straight into you >:) ice crystal droplets as currency for stronger upgrades would also be cool - possibly fire enemies as well. these could be exclusively bosses perhaps - enemies that can fire through walls - enemies with exotic movement patterns: quick staccato motion on a grid, bullet dodging, swarming and surrounding, etc. - better balancing. every time you receive an upgrade, your bullets cost more. this, combined with stronger enemies not being significantly more valuable, causes your outlook to be pretty bleak around the 2-3 minute mark, as @willoxs pointed out - making some mechanics more obvious: the big one is the evaporation bar. it indicates the rate at which your water meter goes down by itself. this really isnt obvious (thanks @janniz and @matt-e), which i have some ideas about improving, while also still maintaining a minimal use of text

i wont make any promises about continued development, because every time i do it seems to release a wretched curse that prevents me from doing so, but in case i do make sure to [follow me on itch.io!](https://ben-m.itch.io)

Icebreak by tylerstraub 2022-04-06T23:34:14Z

you've somehow created the hardest game known to man

Heaven Fallen by Lighty_the_Light 2022-04-06T16:43:04Z

had a great time playing this! something about it is just especially fun. the fact that you cant remove blocks after you've placed them definitely adds a huge challenge... maybe not a fair one. perhaps if you allowed block removal with a resource cost? i just keep dying to a single column lol

Click to Continue by Daniel Foutz 2022-04-07T03:25:04Z

155 Hitmen by somestufz 2022-04-07T18:58:55Z

nice and simple. could use some sort of hit feedback tho

Giraffe o'Clock by Kepsert 2022-04-07T16:53:40Z

love the art and music but the character was just way too floaty for me

Venting Machine by EmberUshi 2022-04-07T03:03:05Z

i liked when she kicked the vending machine

Worjar: And the inevitable end by ATH-AI 2022-04-08T03:18:17Z

i love the absurdist vibe so much! will try my hardest to force my friends to play this

Mr. Second by Marvis 2022-04-07T19:11:08Z

really like this mechanic, havent seen anything quite like it before. i wish the grabby things were just a little more forgiving though!

Bomb Digging by tete 2022-04-07T18:54:15Z

Buzzkill by brittbrady 2023-01-10T00:00:57Z

very well polished and great audio, if a little simple

Dreamcatcher by 6smith 2023-01-10T00:09:03Z

@tero-pulkkinen you can play the game directly on the page, ignore the link for now

Gun Harvester by The1 2023-01-13T05:41:20Z

i really enjoyed this! has a lot of potential, would love to see the idea explored more. for instance, with a larger game area you could have much more dangerous plants, especially ones that create a variety of enemies and are harder to kill. being able to construct defenses such as walls might be an interesting mechanic as well. might want to choose a different game engine though because the game had some major performance issues with large numbers of objects

Organigrow by Phillip Scott 2023-01-13T03:52:05Z

i liked it, pretty polished, art was good. wish i couldve held all three tools at once, felt a little annoying to have to pick them individually. also was unsure what harvesting actually meant

Combine Harv-racer by procrasteroid 2023-01-13T04:51:02Z

nice little game, felt fun to play

Overgrowth by Sheng Mai 2023-01-21T04:37:33Z

i really enjoyed this, though i think it could've had a bit more complexity
