This is great - the multiplying tribbles was a really good use of the theme. It controls well, and you designed the levels very well, just challenging enough. As mentioned above, perhaps the only unfair bit was dying to tribbles in front of the door. Sneaky blighters. Great LD entry, thanks for making it.
Very nice use of the theme. I liked the retro dungeon crawling style, and weird enemy types. Great job!
Nice to see something different. What an ending π
Lovely game. The animations are terrific.
The death count escalated quickly π Fun idea, well done π
Yes, I did enjoy it! Took me a moment to realise the jumping/rising tactic, but it works really well. Very satisfying. Well-made game.
Great game. The mechanics work really nicely, and its fun getting out of tight spots with some accurate squashing :)
Excellent game - really playable and satisfying to control & shoot.
Nice, stylish game. I liked the addition of the brake control, that adds a lot to it. And gaining lives rather than dying on first hit, again mixes it up. As someone above said, I felt I wanted to go a tiny bit quicker? - though I like the weighty feel.
This turned out nice! I actually like the controls. Confusing for a moment, but its nice to learn how something works, and its not unpredictable when you've grasped it.
Greetings @lost-dutchman-software ! You could've set it inside a tiny Japanese apartment or capsule hotel? I accept your theme usage anyway π - actually, I like entries that think outside the norm, or that use a hobby or interest.
Edit - had the theme been 'Magic' or 'Decay' I was going to use photos from my Pendle walk on saturday and use those for something + witches. Wrong theme.
Sadly, despite going to Japan, and having all kinds of phrase books, I may have forgotten it all... βΉοΈ
Lovely game, very playable. Great style.
fun game - I like how tight the controls are. The visuals are good too - a nice style.
OMG, that is brilliant! Very glad I spotted your entry on the main feed.
Awesome use of the theme - and very well polished. GREAT work.
LOVE IT! Simple, but perfectly executed.
Wow - thats a really ambitious jam project! As others mentioned I think, needs some tweaks, but extremely impressive. [played the post jam version]
Wow - what a polished and fun game! That is crazy-good. Lots of subtle gameplay mechanics as you get used to the physics.
This a a great game! Very enjoyable to play, and implements the theme very well. 5/5 from me, my favourite LD41 game so far.
Great *fun* game - love the hand drawn style, and the various effects you've added to the game.
Excellent game, and great use of the theme π
I couldnt get very far, but great game. Genuinely fun to play!
Awesome little game - very well polished, music and graphics.
Really enjoyed your game, and it mixes the 2 genres very well. The combination is actually rather nice!
Very enjoyable and playable. Maybe could make more use of the weapon types, but its great fun.
Tons of fun - this turned out great!
Awesome - one of my faves.
Great game - very playable, tight controls. Top job!
This is very original + fun! Controlling the shot is a little tricky, but thats also part of the charm.
Awesome concept, and plays well.
Very playable and fun game - great job.
Super-cute. I know you ran out of time, but I reckon this is sooo close to being a very cool game; the 2-item control thing is strangely satisfying, and it fits perfectly with the salt/pepper idea.
Terrific game, wonderful art. The cat is just awesome.
I kinda wish I could control placing of items a *bit* better (to barricade myself in?), but maybe I just suck :P
Really fun - kudos to the artists especially, great cartoon characters.
This is great fun! The controls are v smooth, you can actually fight :D
Fun game - turns out there are actually some tactics to pooping..! Cute graphics. Nice job.
I found the controls a little floaty perhaps, could tighten that up.
This is really great - very ambitious to try a stealth game. Love the graphics + audio, and excellent use of theme.
Really nice idea, and very well presented. I can see this expanded to a full game - wanted some trickier levels to try!
[I had trouble with some controls, e.g. how the turret realigned itself].
Excellent game - lots of good tactics to use. You nailed the retro art style ;)
My favorite so far - love it!
Whoa - beautiful game!
Didn't expect such a slick game - plays so well! The malfunctioning tank idea is very original - tho I did find it pretty difficult(!).
Very relaxing game - great job!
[wasnt always sure if my colour was matched?]
Very clever puzzler, cute style too.
Really well done game, with lots of nice attention to detail. Great use of the theme. Moody music.
[PS had to swap your openal32.dll for another one on my machine to get it to run. Win7]
I knew from the title and screenshot this would be awesome! Great entry.
I agree with @factorial that the control wasn't obvious to start with.
Great fun. Excellent pixel art and style.
Loved it! Very playable and fun. The canon and powerups are great additions.
Great game, very playable, and most importantly FUN! Attention to detail (like the heads etc) makes a big difference. Funky music gives it a cool feel.
I'd like the worm to bend a bit, and maybe add some extra dangers underground, and a perhaps some goals/target. I hope you continue updating it.
Very imaginative and puzzler, excellent style and gfx. Great to see something this original in the jam.
Great use of theme, very enjoyable. Really like the art style.
Wonderful! great job on the retro style. Its really playable too.
Surely wins the cutest game award! Expertly made, I hope you continue with these (mobile versions?).
Excellent! one of my favorites.
Great fun, and excellent snow effect.
Great use of theme, and very stylish.
Brutal difficulty, but so well done! Great game.
Super game. really like the changes in motion of the enemy waves. Amazing what you can do with just blobs - it looks great!
Brilliant little game! Good controls (well, its supposed to be tricky) and beautiful presentation. How you made this in the allotted time I will never know.
Really cool idea to combine these elements!
All-round excellent game! The mechanic is really satisfying, makes a change from regular shooters. 5/5 from me.
Awesome! Gets brain-twistingly tough, but a great game. Sound + graphics are excellent too. 5/5 from me.
A simple game, but rather enjoyable! It does what it set out to do. Path finding works well. I like the mechanic/strategy. varying the level layout would be good.
I didnt really expect anything so original from the screenshot -- the game mechanic here is brilliant! One of my favorites so far, great job. 5/5.
I actually love the 'heavy' inertia here, v interesting to plan your route. Very enjoyable.
And no, I can't complete 20 levels at all ;) (would be nice to 'cheat' and continue my game?).
I whipped him. Then things got really nasty :P !
Fun game!
Fun game - gets nice and challenging.
Wish I could progress further (sry!), but either way I LOVE what you've achieved here with the art style + atmosphere (and clever use of theme). Great job! An easy 5/5 for mood and graphics.
Love this one! Simple idea, but implemented really well. Controls and movement are excellent.
Great idea. And, yes, kinda creepy?!
I really admire entries that fully embraced the theme (I struggled this time).
Really well implemented idea, very slick.
As Yaroslav said above, it would be cool if the game screen had a little more to it, more interaction.
Great idea and implementation. Love the graphics + audio too :)
[Hi - I get an APPCRASH as soon as the window appears. 64 bit Win7. Games looks v interesting, look fwd to playing I hope]
Fun, and plays really well. Nice art style.
[Avira reports 'TR/Dropper.gen' in the zip download. ?]
Love this one! Fully embraces the 'one screen' theme, and very playable, tight controls. 5/5 from me :)
Cool concept - love maths :) Very satisfying feedback when clicking. could be a great mobile game too.
Great game! Some very imaginative mechanics and animation.
Great fun! Level progression is done really well too. Very original art style, perfect.
Very enjoyable game to play, with interesting level design and ideas. I played the simplified version :)
Very clever concepts. Hurt my brain, but in a good way ;) Great job.
Very enjoyable shooter! Controls excellently. + the audio really brings it together. The final theme/boss was cool to discover. Great entry.
Great concept!! Perhaps make it a bit more challenging at the start - the game is best when its challenging you.
Fantastic - great controls, graphics and sound. Lots of nice little details, like how the people run to the chopper :)
Oh, thats a super fun + crazy game! And the music matches it perfectly. I didnt read the instructions to start with, and the resulting chaos was very very funny!
Very cool concept, and it plays nicely, great job!
You could do many fun things with this concept; e.g. if both tracks were *almost* the same you could flip between them to avoid obstacles or overtake other cars.
Nice concept, very cool presentation and feedback. Sneaky title too :)
Ooh, this is a fun little game! The level progression is nice, adding one planet each time. My tactic is always sacrificing planets from the start :)
Excellent concept, and I love the art and sfx. The game is a bit too hard for me, I really wanted to progress more..! Top job though.
Excellent. Very well executed concept. Love the minimalist style too.
Great concept + execution.
Oh wow, this is excellent. Would take me a year to make this! [The only thing I would change is the music perhaps, I'd go for something more ambient and mysterious?].
Love it! Simply fun to play. Good difficulty level too, lets you learn the rules.
Very enjoyable (and a fully complete game). Like you say, there are more tactics than you think! Reminds me a little of Deus Ex hacking?
Very cool! The music and beat really work well. This would be good as a quick-play mobile game.
Loved your game. It is indeed really tough, but I hear thats cool these days... :)
Great retro graphics and very playable.
This is brilliant! Great concept, and fiendish level design. The concept really works well.
Love the art, and very satisfying to play/control. Top job!
Would love to try this, mac/win ideally (else, will try to do a linux build).
Very nice game. Theres more to it than meets the eye, the control of the boat and spear are not the simple approach you might expect.
Highly polished game, and fun to play. Very impressive.
Fantastic design and atmosphere. I'd like to see the idea expanded, with more things to collect and fight. Very impressive.
Loved this, it plays really well. The control/motion of the worm feels right to me.
If you can add a few more game elements/levels, that would be awesome.
I really enjoyed controlling the sub - give me enemies to bomb and this would be awesome!
Great game (if a little difficult). Love the animations, and music.
Enjoyed your game, I think the use of light for powerups is very cool, and perhaps it could focus even more on that aspect.
I reached 9 miles - and become quite good at reverse controls. I thought collecting another wheel would reverse it, but...
Great game, very well made. I'd like a way to continue my destruction and extend the time :)
This is great! The momentum is a little high, but I quite like it that way. You designed some really good levels too. The background was bonkers crazy, but I think this is a key feature... And, that ending :|
Really enjoyed this, interesting quirky style, and some very nice enemy formations and progression.
Really enjoyed your game, esp the room layouts and items/abilities, and descending down each floor. Very playable and fun, and great isometric style.
It did freeze (in different places) a couple of times, not sure why (Mac/Chrome).
Very slick, great job. The lighting and music are nice touches.
Beautiful animations - great stuff.
Very interesting concept.
As others said, perhaps with smaller introductory levels first, and hints, could be a very unique game. Great job!
Wonderful game, with excellent art. A little too hard (for me) at the start, perhaps make it a bit easier at the start?
Very enjoyable game, controls are spot on, and the artstyle is great.
Great game, very fun to explore!
That jetski is fun to control! Nice job.
Controls are a little tricky (not quite intuitive), but definitely a great effort, and could be developed further.
Fun game, very playable. I like the progression of each level (more than I expected at first).

Sluggish Grind by Catusfelony 2019-10-23T15:35:38Z ♥ 1
Fab game, enjoyable to play, + I loved the clean B&W pixel art. The shop/items were really well done. The level design is also very well thought out. A great LDjam entry.
Wisp by mikymod 2019-10-23T15:27:09Z ♥ 2
Lovely, slick game. Simple but excellent graphics and audio, top job.
Memories of Eleph by Leandroc 2019-10-21T14:29:55Z ♥ 1
Absolutely lovely game. Graphics and audio are wonderful. I'd really like to play without the timer, it just feels like a game where you wander and discover puzzles etc at your own pace.
You Broke the Game by OlegKlishin 2019-10-14T20:10:10Z ♥ 2
Its all been said above, but wow, what a fab, polished, engaging game. This could genuinely become a full release game. LOVE the graphics, music and themes. You're a very talented bunch.
Nightbirds by Jiri Hysek 2019-10-14T17:26:55Z ♥ 1
Fab entry - interesting mechanics and progression. I like the clean art style and realistic birds - very atmospheric.
Ooze for the Ooze Gods by maxdmg 2019-10-14T17:16:42Z ♥ 1
Lovely game - controls are smooth, and the art is great. As @moebiusmeow said, it is very satisfying to consume things and grow.
Wild Wild Yard by benjamin 2019-10-14T17:13:06Z ♥ 0
What a lovely game! I died a lot, but thats the point, I think ;) As other said, the amount of items and content is really strong for a compo game, and I loved the pixel art.
Deadrun II by jcmoyer 2019-10-13T16:18:48Z ♥ 0
Very cool entry! The graphics+lighting and especially audio make this very unnerving and atmospheric. Enemy design too... Great job. Like others said, a few different enemy attacks/patterns and it becomes even better. But, I also ran out of time on my own game :/
We've Got Nothing by Doey 2019-10-12T15:12:53Z ♥ 1
That was a fun one! The controls were a little tricky (due to size of stuff), but not unpredictable. Really good use of the theme.
Word Crush by lunarDust 2019-10-12T14:53:50Z ♥ 2
Great entry, and use of the theme. I can imagine really building on this, to have the board react to every word you make [big job, but would be fab].
When Nothing Came by velvetlobster 2019-10-09T20:46:41Z ♥ 2
Really beautiful experience, my fave LD45 game so far. The graphics, sound & concept all came together so well.
Loot Simulator 2019 by Adam Gaskins 2019-10-09T17:50:32Z ♥ 0
Absolutely fab shooter. The loot was very rewarding :) Getting over-powered after level 10 was cool.
Snow Ball by Cryptex 2019-10-08T21:13:47Z ♥ 1
Very well made game, the controls are super-satisfying, and the katamari style build up looks perfect.
I struggled in a few places to read the upcoming terrain change. Bit of extra shading/shadow, maybe. Minor stuff, great entry.
Nun in the Chamber by BrokenMirrorMedia 2019-10-08T21:05:06Z ♥ 1
It was hard at first, but you do learn the tactics. Really good use of the theme, and *love* the pixel art. Yeah, that enemy AI doesn't mess around! :)
Scrap Seekers by Gonzo13 2019-10-07T20:59:28Z ♥ 1
Very nice implementation of the theme. I also had to think a little on how it worked, but I got there.
--> I mainly came to say: you are very good at pixel art! <--
The Monkey and the Tree by Apace 2019-10-07T20:51:18Z ♥ 0
Ow, my wrist :) The way you control the direction and speed just with this one motion is very novel. Cute and fun game, great job.
Nothing In The Way by JediNeeson 2019-10-07T20:30:02Z ♥ 2
Lovely game, very complete. Great use of the theme - it really does start with nothing!
Bearly Alive by tayron 2019-10-07T19:08:25Z ♥ 1
Hey @bjeaurn, A survival game I can actually complete, yay! The win screen was cool to reach. Relaxing and brutal at the same time. The food vs energy balance is nicely done, and works really well. A simple change would be to up the movement speed a little (+someone above mentioned inertia/momentum).
