LD26 — Minimalism

Twinimalism by TenTonToon 2013-05-11T02:19:00

Awesome game mechanic and fun gameplay! Also, I love the Mondrian background :) Keep it up!

minimal graphics by Spit Tex 2013-05-03T16:54:00

Interesting, I love the concept!

goldmine by frosty 2013-04-30T14:59:00

Simple and fun gameplay, and I love the graphics!

ABSTRAIT by Tkatchenko 2013-04-30T11:49:00

Nice game! I love the colors. And the puzzles are great!

Truth Only by OrangeeZ 2013-04-30T10:16:00

Fun gameplay and awesome graphics & music!

The Vale by Tyro 2013-05-01T04:24:00

Sound effects would be lovely. Other than that, nice old school graphics. Love the mechanic and the controls! :D

Merkaba by NostraDamon 2013-05-15T06:03:00

Finished it! :D Love the mood. Nice work!

Fading by Blizzil 2013-05-02T16:10:00

I love the clean minimal graphics as well as the level design. Awesome work!

hedraSeed by RobKat 2013-05-02T16:18:00

I kept falling after several attempts, so I got discouraged and quit. But other than that, it's an interesting game and I love the ambience and the visuals. :)

Pale Brown Dot by Fritzendugan 2013-05-01T04:34:00

Beat the 2 levels! :D Love the ambient music. Great work!

On Minimalism by richy486 2013-05-11T02:46:00

This is the the most minimalist game I have played. Haha :P Love the level design, but it's really hard to see the player. But I guess that's part of minimalism, so. Nonetheless, great work!

Less is More? by atraxgames 2013-04-30T13:46:00

Fun gameplay and beautiful aesthetics! One of the most polished games I've played.

MONO by timtipgames 2013-04-30T12:49:00

Well designed levels and beautifully polished graphics! I love this, awesome work!

Invasion by KR-Eddie 2013-05-03T16:43:00

Cool gameplay! Better controls + some sound effects and upbeat electro music (like some chiptune drum and bass or something) and I'd get addicted to this game. Great work!

Fantasy RPG #58 by Martze 2013-04-30T05:06:00

It could be better if the mobs can attack too. But anyhow, awesome game!

16 by Xaychru 2013-04-30T10:21:00

Simple and fun and addicting!

Minimalism by Kwrky 2013-04-30T09:58:00

I love the mechanic and the transition thingy. Awesome game!

Potato Dungeon by _Rilem 2013-04-30T13:58:00

Fun gameplay, minimalit controls, excellent sound = 5/5 best LD26 game ever!

Tessitron by radmars 2013-05-11T02:55:00

Really awesome I had fun playing with this. Love the graphics and the music. Great work!

The Haunting of the Torus by Zoidbergtron 2013-05-12T01:50:00

Needs more juice but good job for a first game. Love the music though. Also, here's a really helpful article on making a shmup game. http://shmuptheory.blogspot.com/2010/02/anatomy-of-shmup.html

Keep it up!

OZE by BigBlackBeard 2013-05-11T02:24:00

Nice mechanic, I had fun playing this game. Awesome work! :)

Cylinder by Jacqueslelezard 2013-05-15T06:32:00

Wow, this game is fantastic! Unique gameplay and great level design. While playing, I could really feel like I was inside the cylinder and my world was like really rotating.

The new controls are much better, however I also liked how the slow-paced version gave me a "2001: A Space Odyssey"-ish feel.

Awesome game overall! 5/5.

Cavern by Parabol 2013-05-01T04:38:00

Love the graphics and the ambience! :)

Way Out by Dabuuker 2013-04-30T12:11:00

Checkpoints would be great! Anyhow, beautiful graphics and great gameplay. Nice work!

jump by yinbar 2013-04-30T11:38:00

Simple and fun. The jump control is kinda hard though. Great job nonetheless!

The Simple Clicker Game by psc1997 2013-05-11T08:42:00

Very simple but I had fun!

Gawdamn Aliens! by Jyrkface 2013-04-30T14:49:00

A bit difficult but fun to play. Awesome work!

Cubed Dream by SteFilms 2013-04-30T10:34:00

Awesome game! I like the story. Keep up the good work!

MiniMOBA by kingtharg 2013-05-12T01:45:00

Interesting concept. I've always wanted to see a minimalist MOBA. I hope you finish this. :D

MINLIFE by DesignerNap 2013-04-30T11:35:00

This is really great! It's awesome to make a game that's really personal. Love the ambience. Nice work!

Ginnungagap by kyyninen 2013-04-30T11:23:00

Gameplay is really fun. Great work!

Min's Journey by acro 2013-04-30T09:36:00

Nice little game! I loved the quirky graphics and the ending. Keep it up :P

Minimo by mire 2013-04-30T11:44:00

Fun gameplay, but I second Broxxar on restarting the current level on death.

Mono by Alphonsus 2013-04-29T22:40:00

@Tyro Thanks! And yeah I'm aware of that bug. I hate working with collision. Haha

Mono by Alphonsus 2013-04-30T09:51:00

@Everyone - I am really sorry about the collision thing. I will work on it as soon as I can, but I'm really tired atm to even look at lines of code. Haha. Hope you guys had fun though :D

Mono by Alphonsus 2013-04-30T15:26:00

*** LEVEL 8 SPOILER ALERT! ***

@Clavus Make sure to jump on the green platform (don't get the green cube yet) during the zombie chase so he falls down. The pink cube also requires good timing. :D

Mono by Alphonsus 2013-04-30T15:39:00

@thatwhichis Yeah, the point of the game is to make the world monochromatic. I should have mentioned somewhere that every colored cube must be picked up before you can exit the level. :D

Mono by Alphonsus 2013-05-04T16:19:00

Thanks everyone especially Fritzendugan and BrothersT for taking the time to write these constructive criticisms. I will definitely take them into account when I start on improving the game. :)

Mono by Alphonsus 2013-05-09T10:30:00

@paulopn Thanks for the suggestions! And nope, I use Slick2D.

Mono by Alphonsus 2013-05-14T14:42:00

@KEFIR,
Sorry about that. It's working now. :D

Pursuit of Happiness by paranoiks 2013-05-02T16:33:00

Beautiful, relaxing game! Nicely done.

2 Bit Battle Royale by cpayne 2013-05-11T02:30:00

I don't have anyone to play with, but this is really neat. Nice idea for a minimalist game! Keep it up

Gold Farmer by Azrou 2013-04-30T15:10:00

Nice little game. WASD + mouse controls would be a bit better though. Anyhow, great work!

I Want To See Space by PizzaPranks 2013-05-11T09:01:00

Love the conversation and the story. :) Music would be nice though. Keep it up!

one life by thatwhichis 2013-04-30T15:12:00

This made me laugh! 5/5 would hit space bar again.

MrHipst by Mrhankey91 2013-04-30T14:21:00

Very minimalist graphics and I love it. Wish it had more levels though. Awesome job!

Drimonna by Colapsydo 2013-05-02T15:55:00

I'm not really sure if I get it, but it's a nice new gameplay and looks interesting. Great work!

DudeJump by agnulf 2013-05-01T04:18:00

Make it restart to the current level only when you die and not the whole game. Nonetheless, awesome little game! :)

Antichromatic by arkeus 2013-05-12T01:15:00

Very well polished game. Nice mechanic, great controls and challenging levels. Awesome work!

<Insert Title Here> by hannardynamite 2013-05-12T01:21:00

Nice little game, keep it up!

Mini Maze by Mago 2013-05-11T08:34:00

Nice minimalist game!

accord by omaha 2013-05-15T06:15:00

A bit frustrating when I keep dying because I want to listen to the next notes. :P Nonetheless, this is fun. Great work!

hunter hungry by Jonathan Whiting 2013-05-12T01:36:00

Visual style is really amazing! Love the mood, especially the music. And the sound is great because it's minimal and not irritating. Very well polished game, great level design, simple & interesting gameplay. 5/5!

Minimalismism by tayl1r 2013-05-03T16:49:00

Very simple and enjoyable! Love the level transitions. :D

Mustache Armies by TurboDindon 2013-05-12T02:41:00

Very addicting gameplay! My favorite entry so far. The game crashes frequently for me though so I couldn't get to finish it. But nevertheless, awesome work! 5/5!

Re-Claim by Natedog9145 2013-05-11T08:50:00

It's a bit buggy but overall a nice little game. Also, I suggest making it so that you need to really pickup the blue and yellow cubes instead of clicking them. The last level was unforgiving, but I finished it after a couple retries. :P

I hope you make more levels. Keep up the good work!

Flipcrusher by Avant-Marde 2013-04-30T14:45:00

I love the mechanic. Fun gameplay but kinda tough. Great work!

RogueOut by badlydrawnrod 2013-05-17T03:51:00

Had fun with this game. Great work!

Minimal 2 Player Game by NiallM 2013-04-30T10:27:00

Awesome job! Beautiful graphics and sound. Also, I chuckled at the ending. Haha

Natural by Oye Beto 2013-05-16T05:05:00

2nd level was really hard. :P Nice game!

The Road by GeorgeBroussard 2013-05-20T19:05:00

Pretty cool game! Had fun with this. Keep it up!
