LD33 — You are the Monster

KRAGZHOR by UrbanHelsing 2015-08-25T14:39:00

Fun game, but really hard. Didn't understand how to eat at the beginning. Realized after a while that you have to grab a human and then use C to consume them. An indication that you need to hold a human when trying to eat would be cool.
Otherwise really good game!

LD40 — The more you have, the worse it is

Save the Hats by Gruhh 2017-12-05T15:52:16Z

Nice game, really liked the style of the game! Good introduction. I first didn't understand what the hat on the slider was, but after a while I realized it was the indicator for the balance of the hats. A bit annoying that there was no way to skip the long conversation in the beginning, when restarting you had to listen to it again.

Super goblin tower by uchiro 2017-12-06T17:14:01Z

Nice game, love the return of the good ol' tower builder game. I loved the artstyle, the game idea was straightforward and it followed the them of this LD. Was a bit too easy, but that just means it needs more testing. Nice with a bit of story as well!

Ricochette by Nathalia Hohl 2017-12-09T23:30:59Z

Nice with a competitive game. Simplistic and without anything unnecessary, makes you able to focus more on the actual gameplay. Feels like a finished games, the only thing I feel the need of is more levels, but a competitive game could be played on the same level over and over again and still keep its glance, so it's not a necessity.

Liked it, really fits the team.

Killer Kitties by PepperSalt 2017-12-05T12:34:49Z

Write out the hotkeys! Didn't realize my first play through that you could use the balloons you collected, thought it first was a game where the end was inevitable. Use Z to throw balloons. Otherwise, great idea, enjoyed it and got over 100points on my second play through!

Armed Descent by Acr515 2017-12-09T23:23:38Z

Fantastic game, really loved the artstyle, the gameplay and the music. Nice with a top down with limited resources, so you actually have to aim.

Good work!

Mortal Komba by kokirisandfriends 2017-12-05T11:49:00Z

So simpel yet so lovely.

Great music, fun gameplay and really follows the theme of this jam!

Disaster Deli by William Beaty 2017-12-05T13:00:03Z

Interesting game, liked the music and the style of it, and the concept was good. But I couldn't deliver the right burger! Don't know if I misunderstood anything, but when I tried to hand in the correct burger, the customer still wasn't happy.

LD42 — Running out of space

Upwards by Nitin Kumar 2018-08-14T18:11:09Z

Loved it, perfect as mobile game.

Climate Change Simulator 2018 Chinese Hoax Edition by smbe19 2018-08-14T17:40:22Z

Good game! When I was about to kill the population it came 5 city-cards after each other. One QOL update would be to disable the movement of the screen with the mouse, or add the ability to disable it.

Brick Brawlers by Tony Li 2018-08-14T19:04:07Z

Fun game! Innovative and a nice way of interpreting the theme!

Card Tower Defense by frozenfire92 2018-08-14T18:05:56Z

Lost at wave 9, very fun game once you understood how to play!

Triple Tribble Trouble by freso 2018-08-14T17:47:21Z

Nice game, love the transition to new levels. A bit unresponsive controls (they feel a bit delayed), so a QOL fix would be to look into what's causing the slight delay. Otherwise liked your way of interpreting the theme, and that jumping on the enemies would add more height than just using jump.

Re: Growth by frostByte4k 2018-08-14T19:11:09Z

The art style was great! Solid comp game, was hard but fun. I didn't understand if there were some sort of conditions for where the grass spawned, or if it was just some random blocks around you.

LArena by Haj 2018-08-14T20:19:32Z

@weine Thanks for the feedback! I actually spent some time getting a script generating the InputManager.asset(Unity) settings to work properly, so it could hypothetically support 16 gamepads. (though there's a limit on how many of a certain control-type one can connect to the computer.) Had no way of trying it out thought so it's just hypothetically.

@freso Hehe oops, thanks for pointing that out! I was thinking about changing them, but instead left them all in the same awkward position. If I continue on the game I will probably change that in the future.

@frozenfire92 My plan is actually to add some AI whenever I got the time, would be a fun project in its own.

Sorry everyone for the hard to parse title screen :sweat_smile:

Deep Down by Nyunesu 2018-08-14T20:32:21Z

Annoying jumping sound, but freaking lit music. Graphics looked really good as well. The game mechanics were simple and relatable. All in all, really great game.

Hell's Highway by magicera 2018-08-14T15:50:00Z

Fun and humorous game, the music was very fitting! Wasn't sure if you were supposed to reach a destination or just survive as long as possible? Survived for 75 seconds as most but never succeeded in reaching any goal.

Dumpin' Stars by AntonioNP 2018-08-14T17:23:03Z

A bit hard to push the trash into the pressing machine, but I like the idea! The acceleration felt a bit slow, which might be more realistic but is annoying.

Anxiety by TontonPizza 2018-08-14T21:07:17Z

Wow, what a game. Well done conveying the feelings of anxiety. Short and well designed, thanks for the experience!

Zlinx by frontlinesaint 2018-08-14T18:57:31Z

Nice, didn't understand how the tripple jump worked, but managed to finish the first level without it. One tip is to make the first levels easier and not just go instant hard mode -- but was fun anyway.

Zombie Royale by Devilzinn 2018-08-14T17:09:01Z

Nice game, a bit hard. A better indication for when the dynamite is going to blow would've been nice!
