LD46 — Keep it alive

Worm Protect Egg by Gunturtle 2020-04-22T01:11:21Z

Really cool game! The retro art is great, and the theme fits perfectly. I liked a lot the egg explosion effect. I just found it a bit too hard.. but perhaps its me that i suck

À la Fenêtre by DocGeraud 2020-04-22T15:16:15Z

Wow, really nice game! A very cool experience. Voice acting was great, the art style and the musit too! Great game!

The Blind Hummingbird by Webox 2020-04-21T13:39:11Z

Great Game! The color palette is great, and it mixes perfectly with the music style. The idea is very original and it was perfectly implemented. The games is really well thought. I really liked it. Impressive work!

CP-ARTY by willjardine 2020-04-22T17:26:18Z

Cool game! it would be nice to have more songs or a longer one! It feels really nice!!

DungeonScape by Lawrence 2020-04-23T17:29:27Z

Awesome game! very well thought. I enjoyed it a lot!

Lich Clicker by Fictions 2020-04-22T13:20:26Z

Loved this game! Art style, music, voice acting, the comments of the litch... The greate variety of things to upgrade. Great job!

Kaoamaru Kaiju by SplitPainter 2020-04-22T12:28:33Z

Great Narrative Game! With a very drastic message, i liked it! PS1 style is always great. Nice job! I'm going to read the postmortem now.

You Live Like This? by LurkinMcClerkin 2020-04-21T15:28:07Z

Nice Game! I liked the voice-overs. The art was cool, and the music fits nicely.

I didn't actually know if there is an ending, or just try to make him survive the longer possible? if the latter, perhaps a counter of time should be added, so you can know how much you managed to make him live.

I noted some problem with layer sorting, you can be "in front" of the logs, but the logs are rendered above for example.

Overall, nice job!

Sunlit by palsina 2020-04-23T13:03:30Z

Great game! cool procedural generation. Very relaxing, the sound when you cut a branch is very pleasant. I liked the minimalistic style of everything. Really enjoyed this!

Don't Drop The Egg! by rk3Omega 2020-04-21T14:07:05Z

I really liked this game! It was really hard for me, but thats the point of this kind of games. The pixel art was great, and the music was very catchy, although just a bit repetitive. Perhaps i'm horrible player, but i found it a bit hard to control the height of the jump by releasing the space button. I felt like always i jumped too high. The wall slide and wall jumps felt perfect imho. I liked how the air pushing you up felt. It was very clean and intuitive. Great game! Really good job.

Keep It Alive by ozancanonen 2020-04-22T14:26:09Z

Cool game! cool style! i really liked it.

A.R.S - Alien Rescue Simulator by azagaya 2020-04-21T13:43:24Z

@rk3omega hi! thanks for the complete feedback! yeah, human detects you in an area, so if they are close enough they see you behind walls. The original idea was to also include a raycast on each enemy, to see if they had clear sight of you... but i couldnt make it on time.

Also, each organ gives you a different ammount of heatlh. Heart and Brain are the best. Perhaps i should reduce the ammount they heal.

The walls should be thicker imho.

A.R.S - Alien Rescue Simulator by azagaya 2020-04-21T14:13:28Z

@systematic yes, art is heavily inspired in Rick and Morty!

A.R.S - Alien Rescue Simulator by azagaya 2020-04-21T19:33:09Z

@sztrovacsek oh, i fortgot to configure the viewport.. Yes that should be fixed. Sorry for that. My screen is just 1366x768 so i dont notice such things!

Thanks a lot for the feedback! Your game was great btw!

A.R.S - Alien Rescue Simulator by azagaya 2020-04-21T22:17:50Z

@dawcrash thanks for playing! About the voice, ill ask @andreco1984 who made it. About the walls.. the original idea was to make them semi transparent when either the player or the stretcher was there.. but i couldnt make it.

A.R.S - Alien Rescue Simulator by azagaya 2020-04-22T10:41:56Z

Thanks a lot for the comments! @disperse @splitpainter the music was the original creation of @andreco1984 and @san2020. The initial message also was by @andreco1984 ! I dont remember if the tardigrade idea was alsp from them.. they are very creative people

A.R.S - Alien Rescue Simulator by azagaya 2020-04-22T11:57:25Z

@splitpainter yes, it was in a subtle subtle way.. You can see the effect of normal maps in floor walls and characters in the second screenshot!

A.R.S - Alien Rescue Simulator by azagaya 2020-04-22T13:53:03Z

@DocGeraud Thanks! yes, collisions in walls are a bit buggy.. i'll fix them for a post jam version. Screenshakes, effects on hit and when shooting were all planned, but i couldn't add them on time.

And yes, Rick and Morty was the main inspiration for our artists.

Thanks for the feedback!

A.R.S - Alien Rescue Simulator by azagaya 2020-04-22T13:55:54Z

@pixel-error thanks for playing! Rick and Morty was our artists main inspiration!

A.R.S - Alien Rescue Simulator by azagaya 2020-04-23T01:33:40Z

@primalshadow thanks for playing! Yeah some users experience some lag in the web version. The binary version should run smoother. @pattedecanaard oh i completely forgot about on hit feedback! I had planned it. Thanks for the feedback! @nicksmaddog yeah, walls collisions are buggy.. sorry for that! Im glad you liked it!

A.R.S - Alien Rescue Simulator by azagaya 2020-04-23T01:42:34Z

@vulgaris yeah.. i really messed up with collissions there.. they should be fine in post jam (when we publish it)! Thanks for the feedback!

A.R.S - Alien Rescue Simulator by azagaya 2020-04-23T11:06:19Z

Gracias por el feedback @big-pear-studios !! Me alegro que te haya gustado.

A.R.S - Alien Rescue Simulator by azagaya 2020-04-23T14:05:42Z

@maqo12 thanks! the art was made by @laau and @andres-ocampo . they are really creative! The main inspiration was rick and morty.

@blackmoodgames gracias por jugarlo! el lag se da en la versión web. A algunos les anda bien y otros no.. Si bajas los binarios debería andar bien!

A.R.S - Alien Rescue Simulator by azagaya 2020-04-23T14:19:49Z

thanks @shubh ! I'm glad you liked it!

A.R.S - Alien Rescue Simulator by azagaya 2020-04-24T11:21:10Z

@sndr Gracias por los comentarios! me alegro que te haya gustado!

@nathant Thanks a lot! yes, some collisions are kind of broken. Ill try to fix it for a postjam version.

The lich feast by geroblacksmith 2020-04-21T13:30:14Z

I liked the retro style of music and art, with only 4 colors and chiptune music. The mechanics were interesting, although i think the need some more user feedback of what you are doing. Good job!

Flood by Joxev 2020-04-25T15:04:10Z

Cool game! I found it a bit hard though, but enjoyed it a lot. Some background music was missing, but its ok anyways. The art and the sounds are cool and fits perfectly. The wall jump felt really good.

DON`T DIE STAY ALIVE! by PenguinBob 2020-04-22T11:54:26Z

Hi, I enjoyed this game! simple mechanics, difficulty scales up nicely.

I would like that the wooden part of the spear stops the pinguin instead of killing it.

Music was relaxing. A bit short, but not annoying at all.

I would try another color palette, but that's just personal preference.

Cool game!

Something Fishy by sztrovacsek 2020-04-21T17:37:19Z

Overall I enjoyed the game. I felt responsible of feeding the fished, although the were just cyborgs. This could be also understood as an example of natural population control by the available food, but idk if that was like a secondary point.

I would like that the game paused when i clicked on the instructions. I really felt all my fishes were going to die when i was reading.

Also, perhaps some soft music at the background could work! Cool Game!

Something Fishy by sztrovacsek 2020-04-21T19:34:27Z

@sztrovacsek Oh, Its good to know that my fishes wont die... as they kept moving i thought the game wasn't paused.

Yandere Emulator by 730 2020-04-21T17:03:53Z

I liked the ambiance, and the general look and feel! the trap killed me just to many times! very well written dialogs! Good job!

Meet God Under the Neon Lights by Systematic 2020-04-22T17:52:18Z

Nice atmosphere and 3D models!

Artifact by Svartskogen 2020-04-21T16:02:52Z

Original game, nice art! Its harder than what it initially looks. The balance between the two kind of foxes is good!

Save The Health Service! by TomRafferty 2020-04-24T20:17:50Z

Hi! congrats for the game! The mechanics are simple, but enjoyable. The graphic art is good enough. The sound was a bit strange, but not annoying at all. I think more feedback on a catch would be fine. Also, when a person comes out from a house of one of the sides, its hard to catch them if you are far, and you dont have any information of where is people coming from. That could be probably sovled with some kind of indicator of the house from wich a person is comming out (like if a neighbour called to report it) Overall the game is good! congrats!

Slamming Slimes by IcefoxZettai 2020-04-21T15:48:31Z

I liked the pixel art, and the music was good also, although a little repetitive. The mechanics were simple but felt good. I liked how you can charge up the jump, and sometimes charging more than necessary is bad. I liked that enemies only froze you instead of killing you. Nice job!

LD47 — Stuck in a loop

Debugger by wdebowicz 2020-10-06T20:02:04Z

Great Game! I think i found a bug where the bar went to the other side of the side bar. Anyways, i really liked this!Captura de pantalla de 2020-10-06 16-53-08.png

Trouble in the Loop by DMac 2020-10-05T19:23:22Z

The ball's movement in the circular track looks smooth. The texture of the balls are cool. Im not sure if it ended after some time, or if there is another ending condition, but the game is nice.

BLOBIUS by chaoclypse 2020-10-07T14:39:35Z

Wow, i loved this one! Hitting an enemy is really rewarding in this game. The slow motion when you are about to hit your own bullet is perfect. Congratulations!

Unscripted by Iluvatar 2020-10-05T22:35:52Z

Great Art! Great athmosphere, great Sounds! really special game. I enjoyed it a lot.. Only thing to say, I would prefer the inventory to be always present in the top.

Cursed Labyrinth by marbles 2020-10-07T15:02:01Z

Hey! great game! really fun to play. The only think i don't understand is what i did after opening the locket. It appeared a text in red, and then nothing.. I kept waiting and reopening the locket. I got almost 200 pots haha. Then suddenly a rope appeared and i found the final boss. Really fun game! but idk why it took so long to me to find the boss.

...a loop is a loop is... by Le Slo 2020-10-06T12:42:52Z

Amazing mechanics and great level design! Really cool game! I would have preferred to jump with space bar. I unfixed the loop so many times by accident! But the game is excellent!

Circled by jobluch 2020-10-05T20:29:42Z

Cool and adictive game! music is really cool.. i liked the fact that there were different songs. Very well done!

W.M.L.F by Webox 2020-10-05T17:46:47Z

Great game, really fun. I find it relaxing! The Pixel-Art is really cool.

Circle Golf by CG_Fred 2020-10-06T19:33:20Z

Reaaly nice game! fun, simple mechanic, and challenging. I finished in 3.30 minutes.. idk if that's good. Really like this one!

Layers of time by Kaldrin 2020-10-06T16:58:45Z

Nice game and clever mechanic! really nice! i liked the minimalistic graphics. It would be great if it had audio!

Again by alvmivan 2020-10-05T18:17:26Z

Cool graphics! The shoot sfx was nice too, and the particles were excellent! Sometimes I found enemies to get stuck in walls.

Threaded Loop by Guillem Serra 2020-10-06T18:55:28Z

I loved the look and the concept. However, sometimes i couldn't say what was happening... At first i thought "ghost" would do what you did previously, but sometimes that didn't happen and i couldn't tell why. I really liked the game, but a short explanation or example would be nice!

CREATION EXCAVATION by taffyko 2020-10-25T20:23:00Z

I really liked the art, Mechanics are great and fun to play. the sound effects tometimes were too high, or too sharp and i had to turn down the volume. But it was a great, and well done game! I would like some ambiental music though.

A Day in the Woods by ditam 2020-10-06T17:33:11Z

Wow, really nice interactive story. It was very rewarding to find out I broke the initial loop! Sometimes the deviation needed to restart the loop was too punishing.. perhaps it would be better if you return to checkpoints instead of start the loop again when you make some mistakes. Really nice game! Contrats!

Cyber Curse by azagaya 2020-10-05T19:12:30Z

@dmac Thanks! is the first time i do that kind of music.

Cyber Curse by azagaya 2020-10-05T19:47:05Z

@oaksguard thanks! I even couldnt work full weekend on it. I almost gave up! But I'm proud of what I made, even though I know there are flaws on it.

Cyber Curse by azagaya 2020-10-06T11:43:27Z

@shortbread thanks for the feedback!

Cyber Curse by azagaya 2020-10-06T14:21:17Z

@shelvid thanks! yeah, footsteps may be to loud. They were fine on my computer, but listening in other computer also feels to loud. I thought about putting landmarks, or even a map, but I couldn't make it in time.

@marbles thanks for the feedback! yes, perhaps the small platforms are to small. Can be easily fixed in a post jam version.

Cyber Curse by azagaya 2020-10-06T14:38:15Z

@mhm32167 thanks! yeah, the idea was to introduce new enemies each repetition, but I had no time left.

Cyber Curse by azagaya 2020-10-06T21:46:39Z

@wiredsound @gonzalol thanks for playing! originally, the idea was that you pick first the dash, but i found the sword upgrade was fun, so i decided to put it sooner in the game.

@trypants thanks for playing! with astronaut you mean the main character?

Cyber Curse by azagaya 2020-10-06T22:54:37Z

@macmist thanks! I'm glad you liked it!

Cyber Curse by azagaya 2020-10-07T10:26:01Z

@samdwester thanks! Im glad you liked it!

Cyber Curse by azagaya 2020-10-07T15:24:43Z

@ansoneh thanks!

Cyber Curse by azagaya 2020-10-07T21:17:57Z

@kaldrin thanks for the feedback! yeah, deffinitely i should have added some marks to identify some spots.. or some comments like "Im again here?" or something. Also the beginning/ending was intended to be interpreted as a loop.. as if the time you played is not the first time the character went through this.

About the air stop, i always loved that mechanic! i think is really fun. In all games. No exception.

Cyber Curse by azagaya 2020-10-08T11:07:56Z

@mog13 ! thanks! yeah, combat is a bit hard on laptop, until you get the explosive attack. Thanks for the feedback!

Cyber Curse by azagaya 2020-10-12T12:54:25Z

@game-endeavor Hi! thanks for playing! yeah, enemi hits need more feedback, and hitboxes need to be stunned. The parallax background, i think i should change the tileset i used for that, so that it does not seem part of the level. About the spikes in the ground that kill you, besides changing the color, perhaps the problem is that the player respwans too fast, so the player cant really see what was in the floor. I could probably change those spikes to a red or orange color, or make them shine. Thanks for the great feedback!

@trexxak hi! thanks! yeah, the hit boxes need tunning. Ill make sure to fix them after the jam ends.

Cyber Curse by azagaya 2020-10-14T11:26:55Z

@forgeronstudio thanks for the feedback! Perhaps if i add a dedicated build for mac, it works better.

Cyber Curse by azagaya 2020-10-27T11:23:16Z

Thanks a lot @jjoeyay! Im glad you enjoied it!

Bob the Time Travelling Square by SciDev 2020-10-05T20:12:46Z

Nice game! nice visual signs, and the mechanic was well implemented. I would have that the music wasn't chip tune, due to the general look and feel of the game, but it was really nice anyways!

Break The Cycle by geroblacksmith 2020-10-05T18:40:05Z

Cool entry! Nice athmosphere!

ORBIDRONE by bixarrio 2020-10-07T14:47:38Z

Nice Game! I liked it. I found it difficult to understand at first. But it was pretty well done imho. Congrats!

Tum-Tum: An Unexpected Diet by Maxime Barre 2020-10-26T16:35:56Z

Nice one! good art! good musice! funny meow sound. Fun to play. congrats!

while(true) by Noah Kuhn 2020-10-05T22:45:41Z

Nice Game! i likeed the concept, although i woudl have preferred that enemies move more. they always were at the other corner of the screen.

HERO BURGER by mhm32167 2020-10-07T22:55:29Z

Nice Game! simple but effective. I would like perhaps more speed, and could it be that all things appeared always in the same line? I used to stay in the top line all time, only go down to pick a sauce. The music was fine, but the loop was a bit short, and started to feel repetitive after a while, although as its soft music, is not really a big problem imho.

Creatures of the Sky by WiredSound 2020-10-07T23:22:51Z

Nice short game! idk why, but sometimes it reminded me to Lovecraft. A bit short imho, but nice concept anyways. Both endings where nice. I think the story is this game's strong point.

Evaze by zappablamma 2020-10-05T20:04:02Z

Nice Entry! i liked the minimalistic graphics, and the game mechanic was really original. Cool Game!

Punpkin Loops by FreddyTurbina 2020-10-05T18:48:35Z

Nice game! I loved the music. The idea of being inside a music loop was cool to! Game runs very smooth. A bit to fast for my skills at the end. Congrats!

Patient Ghost by MartRoks 2020-10-06T12:11:19Z

Awesome game. Great athmosphere, background story is cool. A bit short, but really polished. Enjoyed it a lot!

Looponaut by exopunk 2020-10-06T12:50:45Z

Great Art! i really like the rewind effect. Going faster in the third loop really makes things harder instead of easier hehe. And for some reason, when dieing, I started again with only 1 life point. Is that normal?

Looper by Shortbread 2020-10-06T12:02:32Z

Amazing game! really clean style. Is very fun to play, and looks very polished. Congratulations for a great game!

Brick'd Out by Game Endeavor 2020-10-06T17:14:42Z

I like the innovation on a very well known game here. The graphics are cool, minimalistic. Breaking huge amount of bricks with those bombs feels rewarding. In level 3 i didn't understand why my ball went through all the bricks at first. I also liked that you only need mouse to play. Congrats! I think I found a bug, perhaps. Some times when I lost, the game over screen didn't disappear and I could hear the game going on in the background. I could loose again, and then the game showed for a bit, and again appeared the game over screen. I had to refresh the page.

RbLoop by OaksGuard 2020-10-05T19:50:35Z

Very clever game! nice concept arround loop! It was a bit difficult, but I really liked it!

LD48 — Deeper and deeper

Boots & Booty by Ava Skoog 2021-04-29T03:10:25Z

Wow, beautiful game, just beautiful. Love the art, the sounds of waves hitting the boat, the game mechanic. Awesome, in so little time. Congrats, you should be proud!

Midniight by Ace17 2021-05-01T14:47:27Z

Really liked the level design! Music was cool too! Great game!

Deep & Deeper by warxen 2021-05-01T15:30:17Z

Excellent game! With simple and really creative mechanics, and awesome levels and dialog! Congratulations!

Infinity Dive by keepee 2021-04-26T11:22:06Z

Really nice game, very cool fractal-like mechanic, really feeling you are falling. I like how you quickly discover what to do. I like also that it is so simple to play. Nice Idea on the theme! Very solid entry!

Dipper And Dipper by Marcenat 2021-05-01T16:11:49Z

Excellent game! Excellent dialogs and humor! I liked the art and sound too. Amazing entry. I always like this kind of puzzle games where you control both characters with the same keys!

Rooted by Webox 2021-04-27T03:30:15Z

Amazing entry. Very clever mechanics. Excellent level desing, great art. Nothing to complain, I loved it.

Gyro Scavenger by qorthos 2021-04-27T12:12:32Z

Great game! Love the aesthetics, coold idea, good sounds. Movement mechanic was really good to me! A bit too hard for me, I struggled a lot! Solid entry! Well done!

Deeper Trance by dhim 2021-05-01T20:24:27Z

Really nice concept! Sadly, i cannot see autostereograms (never could in my life), but I see that this should be mindblowing when you are able to see it! So I played in the cheat mode. Congrats! very creative!

AeroCat by W0oly 2021-04-27T20:27:38Z

This was such an awesome entry! those falling cat physics are really sweet! music when you die is really nice too. And graphics are excellent. Congrats!

F.R.I.E.N.D. by Jake White 2021-04-27T20:22:34Z

Great entry, a lot done in so little time! Great visuals! Congratulations! P.D: Mouse sensibility was too high in my browser, idk if a settings problem on my end.

Deep Space 99 by CG_Fred 2021-04-27T20:11:57Z

Great game! I love that the music changed between combat and safe moments. Great graphics and style. Simple but challenging gameplay. Congrats!

Fever Dream by RAFFE 2021-05-01T16:33:03Z

Nice game! Great art and sound! Deeper and Deeper into a dream is a cool concept. Liked the voice acting too. Congrats!

Autumn Hike by Brusi 2021-05-01T15:01:14Z

Love this game to the bits! Wow, how creative! Im sad the little rat passed aways though. Art was lovely, music too, The concept and effect of going "deeper" was really well done! congrats!

Ocean Cleanup by Weirdybeardyman 2021-04-30T22:18:42Z

@weirdybeardyman cool game! I liked the graphics and music! so much for a COMPO entry imho. I liked the controls, but when I hit the ground, the submarine sometimes go crazy. apart from that, great entry!

Ants Are Awesome by IndigoWolf 2021-04-26T15:50:55Z

Cool game! When i read "colony game" i thought "he had an ambitious scope" haha. I liked the result. I would love to play it again with some sound! Well done!

Adventurer of the deep by ROBOWARRIOR1982 2021-04-26T16:25:17Z

Great game! a lot of content for a 48hs jam! Well done!

Bunny Bunny Dig Dig by ZakAmana 2021-05-01T16:54:11Z

Excellent game! Impressive for a COMPO! reaaly, one of the best games both COMPO and JAM I've played.

T.O.P.O by emrod 2021-04-27T00:30:01Z

Great entry! Simple an intuitive gameplay, just keep going deeper. Theme is respected. Art is really nice. Music and sound is excellent to me!

Perhaps the HUD shouldnt have those lateral bars because the drill can be hidden behind them and feels like.. unnecesary.

Sometimes i felt i the collisions were a bit unfair, that i could have passed between two obstacles.

Overall, great entry! Congratulations!

Deep Randomizer by Omich 2021-04-26T14:16:21Z

Fun game made in this short time! Sometimes i think two weapons fired at the same time. Sometimes i didnt understand the instructions. Perhaps is because i read them in a rush to keep moving and avoiding enemies. Overall nice game!

Diary of Sedah by azagaya 2021-04-26T00:28:13Z

@hotpaw Thanks! Im glad you liked it! The "zombies in sleeping bags" were supposed to be some kind of worms hehe. Ill play your game for sure!

@liammasters Tahnks! I was afraid that the music didn't fit. Yeah, the combat is a bit off. Looking forward to play yours!

Diary of Sedah by azagaya 2021-04-26T11:02:00Z

@paroxysmal @verygenuinecraze thanks for playing!

Diary of Sedah by azagaya 2021-04-26T14:46:54Z

@bassilij thanks a lot! hehe i dont think ill continue this game after the jam, but thanks anyways ;)!

@thiradil thanks a lot for playing! Yeah, the gameplay may be a bit boring.

Diary of Sedah by azagaya 2021-04-26T14:59:09Z

@3lstmsinatrenchcoat thanks a lot! Im glad you liked the art style :)

Diary of Sedah by azagaya 2021-04-26T15:00:48Z

@indigowolf i missed your comment too! thanks, i put a lot of effort in pixel art, as its deffinitely something i want to learn.

@omich thanks! im glad you liked it!

@redspine thanks! Usually people complain about difficulty on my jam games, so this time I added a feature to skip so you could see the ending anyways.

@bridgeonastick thanks lot! The first time i write a story for a game. I was afraid it was to boring. And about the music, i feared it didnt fit well. Is the last thing i did.

@bubakgames thanks!

Diary of Sedah by azagaya 2021-04-26T23:41:23Z

@tescoone thanks! Yeah, i never wrote stories, so i wanted to do that this time. I'm glad you liked the soundtrack! most people don't even mention it :(

Diary of Sedah by azagaya 2021-04-27T12:00:43Z

@jorenkv ohh yeah, sorry i did not plan to make it keyboard only. As in higher levels you need to aim and shoot, a mouse is required. Surely more controls can be added for a post-jam. Thanks for playing!

@madr thanks a lot!

@deeemo thanks! yeah, that was kind of the idea, that you strategically choose when to kill enemies.

@xeke-death Thanks! I put a lot of effort in art and music.

@sadsmile thanks a lot!

@fishmasterino Thanks! I'm glad you liked it

Diary of Sedah by azagaya 2021-04-27T13:26:42Z

@stuartc Wow, thanks a lot for the kind words! Im glad you liked the combat, I think is what more people complaint about. For the worms, they will try to run away if you go near them, so chasing them is the safer way.

@dilem thanks! I'm glad you liked it!

Diary of Sedah by azagaya 2021-04-27T15:27:35Z

@sam-bigos thanks a lot for the feedback!

Yeah, challenge was low for me too, but I usually get complaints about the difficulty level (even some friends told me they ended up skipping levels).

The game ended there because it made no sense to make more levels without more variety, that's true. I'm not sure even if the last one should be there.

About the hearts restoration and shooting consuming light, those are great ideas! Ill note them down in case I decide to do a post jam version.

Im glad you liked the story! My first time writing something! Im glad you understood the twist!

Diary of Sedah by azagaya 2021-04-27T19:40:28Z

@landerack thanks a lot for the feedback! Your starting phrase is much better than my ending haha. About the features, yeah, they are all great ideas! Unfortunately, for my first compo i couldn't add all i wanted. If i continue with this in a post jam version, ill make sure to add more features! Thanks a lot!

Diary of Sedah by azagaya 2021-04-28T14:31:50Z

@mizatorian Thanks a lot! Yeah, i thought many people would find skipping levels a good feature.

@mrhassansan thanks! Im glad you liked the art and music! i put a lot of effort on those 48hs!

Diary of Sedah by azagaya 2021-04-28T16:38:48Z

@jonathan-turner im so sorry you couldnt figure out combat. The idea is this, you hold right click, and it does an area attack, you need to be pretty close to the bats. thats only for 1 and a half level, and then you get to shoot while holding the lamp. And that makes it easier to kill enemies. If you replay it and have trouble again, let me know!

Diary of Sedah by azagaya 2021-04-28T19:29:49Z

@gamedevtraum gracias por todo el feedback! muy util! la idea de los esqueletos es genial!

Diary of Sedah by azagaya 2021-04-29T13:23:32Z

@weirdybeardyman hi Thanks a lot for playing! what do you mean you couldn't tell bettween the attacks? The normal attack is just hold right click. When the lamp stoms on the floor it makes area damage. The ranged is first hold right clik for a normal attack. Maintain right click hold and press left click while still holding, and you will shoot to the cursor position. Think it as when you aim in a FPS with right click, and shoot with left click.

@todward thanks for playing! Im glad you liked it!

Diary of Sedah by azagaya 2021-05-01T02:25:20Z

Thanks a lot! Im glad you liked it! Yeah, de area attack should deffinitely be larger, and probably knock back the enemies. About the ending, is a good idea! But i dont think im able to do an animated fullscreen cutscene yet!

@marcenat thanks a lot for the feedback! A friend also told me about Dark Souls feeling, but as I didn't play DS, I wouldn't know. Im glad you got the twist!. Yeah, long range attack and short range attack are not properly balanced. Most people actually suggested me to improve short range one instead of nerf the other. But I agree with you, it is too op. The idea was to add some other things to pick up, but I didn't have time. This was my first compo.

Diary of Sedah by azagaya 2021-05-04T11:24:00Z

@paulhocker hy! thanks for playing! Yeah, the melee attack should have longer range, and perhaps apply some knockback on enemies. The enemies flash white when hit, but perhaps the flash is to short to notice. Anyways, in the next level you pick a ranged attack that make things easier. Were you able to get to that part? Thanks a lot for the feedback!

STARPOON by RedSPINE 2021-04-26T18:39:31Z

Nice game with a clean art style! I liked the simple, yet fun mechanics. I would change the explosion sounds. Sometimes the colors where a bit hard to read to me, are they generated automatically? Cool entry! congrats!

Hole Down by Seeko Studios 2021-05-03T22:04:48Z

Woooooow, excellent game! Could not expect less from you! Congrats! nothing to complain.

ScanR by CharlieGray 2021-05-01T14:46:25Z

Wow, cool mechanics and great mood! congrats! Solid entry

The Company Store by 3LSTMsInATrenchcoat 2021-04-26T17:47:45Z

I liked this game sooo much. Clever interpretation of the theme, clever twist on a very well known genre. Art is really cool due to a good palette choice. Perhaps some FX missing, and of course, it needs sound for a post jam version. But it liked this a lot!

Buried Deep by Paroxysmal 2021-04-26T11:58:46Z

Really nice pixel art! Very polished look and feel. I really liked the design of the level. Collisions sometimes dont work fine, i think sometimes i touched a coin or bone and didnt grab it, and i had to try again. Also, Sometimes i got stuck in the middle or below wooden platforms.

I would love to play it again with some music, but i know the time limitations. Great entry!

Dongeons & Potions by Revetoon 2021-05-01T16:22:53Z

Go to Hell!!! by GameDevTraum 2021-04-27T19:55:43Z

Deep Purple by BridgeOnAStick 2021-04-26T14:29:51Z

Amazing entrye. Icredible what you managed in such a short time. I find it hard at first to discover that i could only move one direction, and could only change the direction after picking the up arrow. It was a little confusing that it was an up arrow given that it allowed you to move to any other direction. Perhaps some more explanation about that, or what the specific blocks are. Anyways i could finish it all (missed some coins in some places). Art is awesome. Sound and music is cool too. REALLY nice game.

A long way down by Trolog 2021-04-27T03:45:15Z

Great game! Impressive that you managed yo include a store and upgrades! Very hard game, I played for a long time and I was not even in 50%. What I found a bit frustrating is that sometimes I just had to make a "faith jump" because of the path I made was impossible to go back. But I guess that's just me being bad at choosing how to make the path! Overall, great entry with a lot of content. Congrats!

The last Ark by Thiradil 2021-04-26T17:22:38Z

Great entry! Liked the art and the concetp. I would make the difficulty scale up a bit faster. Solid entry anyways, congrats!

Deep in mars by DocSystem 2021-05-01T15:48:48Z

Nice resource management game! I hate asteroid btw (its a joke, I know asteroids are important part of the game)

Deep in mars by DocSystem 2021-05-01T16:23:40Z

@deedose i know, i understood the game! I was just trying to make a joke. Sorry if it was misinterpreted. The game is really cool.

I'm So Deep by liammasters 2021-04-26T11:30:03Z

Cool Game! really original, im wondering how you measure the poetry, because once i wrote "Im poor at hearth, but i own a cat" and the princess seemed to like that? Great entry, fun to play!

Todd the Caver by Sam Bigos 2021-04-26T15:17:20Z

Great game! Physics interaction is so well done. Movement mechanic is really funny!. I liked the art too, and the detail of the lights affecting the borders of the terrain. Well done!

Deep Sleep - The Sandman by VeryGenuineCraze 2021-04-26T11:56:58Z

Woompers' Ice Age by GlebSviripa 2021-05-01T16:43:28Z

Lovely art, great voice acting! I got stuck many times with woompers and I had to reset. Perhaps removing the collisions of the woompers and stopmers? Really nice entry for your first ludum dare! Congratulations!

Lucifer's doom by TescoOne 2021-04-26T14:45:27Z

Cool entry. I dont like much the long delay when you attack. It was a good decision to stop everything waiting for the attack, otherwise at that speed i would end up dieing all the time. I manage to finish it at the 5th try. Its a bit tricky to get the timing. I liked the last levels when you not only had to wait for the timing but also consider the other fireballs coming at you. The art of the character and enemies were cool. I wish it had music and sound!

Also, consider changing the attack button from space to j k or some button. If you want to play in browser and not at full screen, space bar will just scroll the page! But thats not something that affects the game honestly.

Very well done.

Mind Hunter by Hotpaw 2021-04-26T11:20:53Z

Wow, great entry! Art style is really nice, and sound and music are very cool too. I couldn't manage to get the correct answers, even though I read the clues and previous comments. I just cannot see any connection between them. I guess I'm a bad mind hunter. I would love to see the ending. Very solid entry, congrats!

Help me there are buildings falling from the sky onto my precious mountain by Kaje Cimhael 2021-10-04T23:11:53Z

Nice Game! I like it that the balance is thought in two ways, balancing the platform, and balancing the type of buildings! I found it hard to keep track of what i could place, so i just tried until something felt. I enjoyed it a lot!

Wobbly Waiter by CG_Fred 2021-10-06T23:01:15Z

I made $5! Nice game! i really liked the controller, although at first i imagined it would feel annoying. I was wrong! I liked the background song! so relaxing. Fun Idea and very nice implementation! Congratulations!

Bennet Froggy by Weirdybeardyman 2021-10-06T23:42:07Z

Nice and cute game! Gives me "over the garden's walls" vives. Voice acting is clean and really good. Graphics are cute. Controller feels very nice! It is super hard to me though, i couldnt beat it :(

Night of Treats by Nefylem 2021-10-07T00:02:52Z

I like the mood of the game, but sometimes shadows were too sharp and it made it hard to see. About the music, imho it would have been better just one song in a loop, but i get it can get repetitive. Mouse sensivility was too high for me i think, and the camera sometimes was hard to control. I liked the ambient and the theme, animations, low ppoly enemies. Its really nice. Would have been nice to see that boss battle! Contratulations!

Volatile Defender by azagaya 2021-10-04T15:33:00Z

Volatile Defender by azagaya 2021-10-05T11:53:50Z

@matt-fabius thanks! Valuable feedback! I'm glad you liked the game. The leaderboard only updates when the scorescreen is opened, and is async, so i doubt thats causing freezes. Did you play in browser? Sometimes godot games run poorly on some browsers. I believe the bug that caused the bullets to pass through is also related to the framerate. The bullets should be slow enough to avoid tunneling, but a freeze or fps drop could cause it.

@kaje-cimhael I'm glad you like this updates! nice score btw!

@nshbae good suggestion, would make collecting items easied. Thanks!

@yotamco I'm glad you liked it! we put a lot of effort in polishing the game!

@cakestorm Wow thanks soo much for that feedback! Yeah, the shield is intended to be used offesively... i personally think it gives a great feel of power (even though in a real game we should probably nerf it). Im so happy you liked the game!

@openfungames thanks for playing! I'm glad you liked it!

@greenradiation Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, I tried with longer duration of buffs, but it made the game considerable easier, and thus, longer. I thought a short but dynamic experience was better for this game! That would probably change if it was a full game instead of a jam one.

@pvp Oh, thanks so much for those words! makes me happy :)!

@megamasterx Im so happy you liked this game so much! we put a lot of effort!

@badpiggy Thanks for the feedback! I'm glad you liked it! Movement speed could be easily tweaked, we may try other values for post jam version probably!

Volatile Defender by azagaya 2021-10-05T22:12:35Z

@professir Thanks! Thats was the idea when we designed it, we wanted a Megaman Battle Network with Plants vs Zombies feeling. The overwhelming feeleing when a lot of zombies approach your house is great! We tried to replicate that feeling.

@ghost-wave Thanks for playing! yeah, shield is a bit over powered haha, but i think it feels great!

Volatile Defender by azagaya 2021-10-06T21:42:47Z

@nardandas hi! thanks for playing! I'm sorry you found that annoying, but i dont think you should have encountered that problem so soon. If you pick the powerups strategically, and stock life and use it to defend the base, you can easily pass that score. But even though, as we want this to be a game of "last all you can", in a given time the game must become impossible. If not, the game could be endless and we don't want that for a jam game.

Some hints:

1- When picking a shield, use it to kill enemies by walking into them.

2- Dont pick any powerups right away, wait until many enemies are there. Specially the double shoot, is very useful against tanks, and it worth nothing for common enemies.

3- Stock life. Life can be used as a weapon as enemies explode when you touch them. That way you can "trade" base life with your own life.

4- Double shoot, if you move in the right moment, can be used to kill two enemies in adjacent rows.

5- Power Up synergy is the key. Is better to wait until many powerups are in the level before picking them.

Volatile Defender by azagaya 2021-10-07T11:59:12Z

@leyaotang thanks for playing!

@verysoftwares thanks for the feedback! yeah, the composer made some great tunes.

@recher Thanks for the complete feedback! Yes, we could add that to the description of the game. About the movement, it needs some tweaking. But the duration of the buffs, we tried longer and the game become too easy, and as a result, too long. We wanted each try to last arround 10mins. We should try to better balance the movment and the duration, perhaps fixing the movement is enough. Im glad you like it! thanks!

Volatile Defender by azagaya 2021-10-07T18:03:20Z

@ava-skoog thanks! Im glad you liked it! Yeah, movement could be improved a bit.

@sakura-magika Im glad you liked it! About the perspective, i see what you mean. If we decide to continue it we will think what we can do about it.

Volatile Defender by azagaya 2021-10-10T12:08:15Z

@lucasvb hi! thanks for playing! Im glad you liked art and music. About the setup, as far as we tested you can get really far by just improving your skills. Timing on items is not much impact if you don't pick right away, the idea is to leave them on the level waiting for other items that have synergy and pick them altogether. Or for example, if you have a double shoot item in the level, wait to pick it whene there is a tank. Also, when you have low enemy count, you may want to wait until it advances a bit to kill it, so pickups are dropped in a safer place. This are strategies that can make you reach better socres in the game, regardless of luck or randomness. After some point, the game must become unbeatable, so there is where luck starts to play a more important role. We didnt want this to be an endless game.

About webgl crashing, thanks for telling us, im not being able to reproduce any crash, but we will see if we can get other people to crash it.

Cake on the run! by GameDevTraum 2021-10-04T23:42:24Z

Me encantó! Divertido, buena musica y sfx, buena aplicación del tema! Hay algún tema con el frame rate, creo, porque dependiendo de los fps salto mucho o poco, cosas así, puede ser? Buenísimo el juego, no lo pude terminar si, quede como al 75% todas las veces que intenté.

Unable to Be Unstable by MadR 2021-10-05T19:33:08Z

I really liked the game! Was enjoyable, with good music and art! I felt the collisions where a bit off, because due to perspective i would have thought that you could pass behind the enemies. Not a problem after i lost one time though. The attack was cool because you need to plan where to put acid, but imho you should limit how often you can drop acid, or something, because spamming the attack was my way to victory!

I really love that the theme is superficially linked to the unstable plant and robots, but you only understand what was really unstable when you finish the game! this could be a double edge sword though, because people not finishing the game wont fully understand it! I wont share a screenshot of the end screen as i usually do because i want to avoid spoilers for other players!

Good entry! well done!
