Well that was fun ! One of the most immersive entry so far, which is quite a big surprise considering what you can expect from a wacky platformer. Had troubles with deadly borders though, when the charcacter get stuck even though he still have lot of room to escape.
The mood and the cyberpunk setting are on point with the theme, very well done !
Turned way more difficult than I though haha. That's some clever dual purpose design you made here, congrats !
Nice entry, didn't expect to be like a third person schmup ! Too bad you didn't had the time to use the space left aboard as a real mechanic. And I have to admit, like Alex, that's it felt a little slow. But hey, it's a compo, and the overall work is really impressive !
PS: last Ludum, when I saw your game, I realized I should try to be more personnal during jams, to think about expressing myself rather than only finding a cool mechanic. That's what I tried this week-end, I really loved it and I have to thank you for that ;)
Beautiful idea and atmosphere ! Here are a few things I could point out: - The first sound effect when you start the game tragically destroyed my ears - People already said it, but it is too long considering the few buildings there are (which make the end ironic considering you ask if the player want to try a new strategy) - I was surprised that the metal factory cost that much metal and almost no energy, would'nt the opposite make more sense ?
Anyway, I'm more than impressed than you managed to finish a city builder during a jam, congrats !
Nice idea, couldn't agree more concerning the fact enemy shouldn't get pass walls. Anyway, the main mechanic is well put, well done !
Hahaha loved the mood, even the minimalist sound design make the overall funnier, you nailed it mate !
Well, you know exactly what's right and wrong in your concept, and we know exactly what happened thanks to your post-mortem, so I don't havce much to say, except the result is still impressive in my eyes, and that I really liked the 3D world's look. Keep up the good work man ! :)
Hahaha you knew about the up arrow, you bastards ! This journey was so great that I preordered 40 times the GOTY version.
The music is catchy as hell, and the game fits the theme pretty well, congrats ! Did I said I loved the music ?
The art is stunning, most impressive one I've encountered yet, well done !
As everyone said, nice calm and relaxing experience. As a negative point I'd say the overall is quite clunky.
Haha, loved the meta stuff about the jam, well done !
Yes, finally some fine lovecraftian game ! Well done !
Cool entry, would have been cooler to make the enemies tougher, so you're forced to move more often, because I juste played as a turret during most of my playthrough ^^
You probably thought all my survivors died slaughtered by a creepy monster ? NOPE, they've been taxidermized by Chuck Testa.
Seriously, that is a great entry. Most tense game I've played in a jam, the game design really emphasis the overall mood. And everything seems so polished, weel done, really !
Hi Gary, there's no simple way to tell you how impressed I am by your work. I've been doing each Ludum since the 41st (that's not a lot, but I plan to miss none of them from now) and each time I'm just puzzled by the quantity and quality of content you manage to create in 48h. For this game I'll point the same negative points as others : controls and camera are quite rigid (I should probably test with a controller later though) and the lack of checkpoints makes the compo version a little bit frustrating. But the overall experience still feels so polished, from the animated menu to the end, and the design suits the theme really well. Well done !
Impressive entry considering how much time you had ! The way you dealt with the theme make your game quite unique and fun to play :)
Haha I totally loved the lore, well done ! One of the best I've played : original, funny, polished, what more could we ask for ?
Nice entry. I'm impressed to see how much features you managed to add for a compo game !
I'm glad you manage to keep your series going ! Pretty fun result for a game made in such a short time :)
Can't play the game either. Would love to as the visuals looks awesome.
Great entry, congratulations ! The level design is simple but well thought and as others I loved the art style but had trouble understanding how the theme fitted until I read your explanation.
@pandan my bad, my first build was a Html one but as it turned out to be laggy, I've eventually chosen Windows. I'll try to implement Max & Linux builds soon if that's what you need :)
My favorite entry so far, congratulations for pulling out such a polished and fun game ! Something could perhaps be done with the player's movement, like losing life when moving but being rewarded by doing so (enemy that use ranged attack the player must go to). I also agree on the fact ther's too much waiting, bu still, the result is impressive :)
Pretty cool game, reminded me of the golden age of Flash Games ! Nice to see you took time to fix your entry's issues. I think the pixellated ingame font is still hard to read though.
Very nice entry ! :) I totally agree with most of the comments considering the game design flaws. The only thing I could add would be regarding the enemy's graphic design. Associating a cartoonish long nose with a greedy character can easily calls back the racist depiction of jews, which can be troubling for some of yours players.
Nice entry ! The gameplay lacks some fluidity but apart from that, I had a lot of fun !
Loved the feel ! And it fits the theme perfectly ! But as the others comment, I had some problems regarding the difficulty of the game, and most of all, the inverted mouse.
Fun concept haha, I don't know if that makes me a psychopath but I would have love if we were playing the killer in the first level.
That's the most intriguing game I've seen for this Ludum Game. The atmosphere was on point, reminded me how Stanley Parable made me feel. You just gained a new follower :)
Loved the bromuda haha. Cool game, even if honestly wouldn't say these two genres are incompatible.
Damn, I was not far from beating your high score ! That is for sure a great game ! To make the monsters more threatening, I think it would be better not to have these square corners, cause it's quite easy to use them to hide easily.
I know I'm not the first to comment that, but the fact that we have to look at the ball and at the alien at the same time is not just hard, but uncomfortable. Otherwise, I'm really impressed, you did a truly great job !
Even if it's not finished, your game is quite funny actually :smiley: I had to press all the buttons on my keyboard to go through the monologues and I had to make the game crash to exit it x) But I really enjoyed it, it's a great idea you had there and the graphics you made are quite nice.
A word of advicce : Don't forget to rate other games so that yours can get rated :)
Loved the game ! It would be super addictive if it wasn't so easy, I had to stop after reaching 3000 because there was'nt enough challenge.
Loved the graphics ! Considering the balloons speed, I think that the serpent is a little too slow. Making him quicker (or more responsive) would make the player's mistakes less frustrating and the overall experience more relaxing.
Hahaha this is perfect ! I can now die in peace.
To be more constructive, I would say I loved the basic concept, and laugh at it for five good minutes, but it's finally quite frustrating because trying to draw he simpliest thing quickly become a long and tedious task. Just as an example, making the splash longer when you shoot an insect with your shotgun would allow the player to make lines more easily, and the experience would become way cooler.
Cool game ! Funny how it turns out to be a mix between an fps and a puzzle game.
Well.. Humanity is doomed. Sorry guys. Anyway, well done ! That's a very good use of the theme.
Great job ! I don't want to repeat what the other comments say, but I agree with all the compliments they made. I would just add it's sad the main car doesn't make any sound when it move. It'ld reinforce the loneliness of the player, like the foosteps in horror games.
Haha that's the best idea ever. It first made me laugh, and before I realized the concept actually works perfectly. Well done !
For a 15 yo's first Ludum Dare, that's impressive, keep up the good work man !
This game you made is a good omen for future works. Your AI seems to work fine :)
Unfortunately I can't hear any music or sound (windows version) :/ I think there are multiple things that could be changed to add to a more comfortable gameplay as transitions between movements or a prettier UI for example. But within your code the game seems to be cleverly built :)
Your game needs a good polish and maby to be closer to the theme but still has a lot of potential !
A word of advice : Don't forget to rate other games to improve your game's visibility.
Really cool concept haha I would add something to what the other comments say : I think it lacks a way to speed time, like what you can find in many tower defense games.
Wow ! That's actually a really entertaining game ! It's fluid, easy to comprehend, and very funny :smile:
A word of advice : Don't forget to rate other games so that yours can become more visible.
Wow, that's the most impressive entry I've seen for the moment ! The theme is perfectly used and the overall just look so professional, well done !
Nice game you have there, I love your 3d menu :smiley: There are a few things you could improve for a more comfortable gameplay (like the f and x that are not quite as easy to use in game as q and e) but overall it's a good game with potential :)
A word of advice : Don't forget to rate other games to increase your visibilty and chances to be rated.
Great menu and options !
What you had time to do with your game is looking really neat and even quite professional.
A word of advice for later jams : The menu and options should be one of the last things to do on your list. Sure it's important, but most of the time in these jams you don't have time to finish your game and people don't mind if there is no menu or save at all ;)
Anyway, I see great potential in what you did :)
That's a really cool work for a 11 yo's first Ludum Dare. The experience would be funnier if the countdown wasn't so long. 4 minutes is really big for this kind of gameplay.
Haha that's an original way to use the theme, well done !
Fun fact, this game's sooo relaxing when playing on a graphic tablet ! But I played it a few time, and the levels never changes. Too bad they're not actually procedurally generated ingame.
I enjoyed playing to your game :)
Unfortunately one robot got me and I died in shame :sob: I think the focus on the mouse is the main issue with the game because a false mouvement can cost you a lot.
Your game is quite funny to play anyway :smiley:
A word of advice : Don't forget to rate other games so that yours become visible to be rated.
Same problem for me. Despite everything I trid, I didn't managed to get pass the menu.
Glad you made the update concerning the reloading ! The game is really fun to play, even if honestly don't think it fits the theme.
Nice game :)
Unfortunaely for me I was quickly overwhelmed by enemies and died in shame x)
I liked your graphics and your music though.
A word of advice : Go and rate other LD games so that yours becomes more visible to be rated.
That's how I like my games : short, funny, and telling me how beautiful and terryfying I am.
Your work is quite neat, no bugs, easy to understand. That's a great mini-game overall :smiley:
A word of advice : don't forget to rate other games if you want yours to be rated more :wink:
Wow I really like your game :smiley:
I tested it on my own so I guess it's not as funny as with someone else but it still is x) The sound design and the graphics are quite good and the game is fluid. Nice use of random generation of obstacles :thumbsup:
Don't forget to rate other games so that yours become more visible ;)
Nice game =D Good idea for the theme, farming simulator and shooter is clearly a weird match x) But you managed to do something really interesting out of it :D If I had one thing to add for a more comfortable gameplay experience, it would be to enlarge the player area of action ; between the Corn-sters and the squeletons/zombies you can't move a lot your character and there is one third of the screen on the right that is for the poultry and that could be shortened a bit.
Overall, I see a nice game with great theme accuracy and nice gameplay :)
Great concept, there's a lot of potential in this game ! Perhaps one of the best use of the theme I've seen so far. Of course, there's a lot of negative things to say, for example the fact the game is too easy, and has an end (why not just unending waves of zombies spawning more and more until the inevitable death of the player ?), but I still really liked it !
