LD19 — Discovery

Roguesweeper by vede 2010-12-22T04:26:00

Same problem as littlehacksaw here... I definitely want to play it

Beacon by randomnine 2010-12-26T11:21:00

Woaw ! What a great game.

Where can I go now? by Mirroar 2010-12-26T10:47:00

omg ! the upgrade system + gathering resources + journey through the universe = so addictive and brilliant.
I had fun

Talapus Control by allinlabs 2010-12-23T08:22:00

To launch the game after installing dependencies just run Talapus.py
If you have any questions or comments let me know here.

Mini Ghost Hunter by 7Soul 2010-12-26T08:54:00

Graphics are so awesome <3
I really like your game, one of my favorite in this LD48

StickMan's Discovery by DivideByZero 2010-12-23T05:53:00

The game just crash when I launch it... :/

Fate of Mankind by LegacyCrono 2010-12-26T16:08:00

Nice game ! there is even achievements :)

Dodge and Collect! by Elegwa 2010-12-22T04:10:00

I like the graphics, but it's short and not so original or related with the theme... But at least, your game's working :)

Dodge and Collect! by Elegwa 2010-12-22T04:21:00

I forgot to say I kinda like the music, well done for that part sir ;)

The Detectorizer by danblack 2010-12-23T06:10:00

Ahhh, it was fun ! Wasn't expecting more from a game :)

LD20 — It's Dangerous to Go Alone! Take This!

The Last Survivor by Benn 2011-05-03T14:19:00

It was amazing. And the ending was just so perfect ! <3 awesome

Wild Forest by haqu 2011-05-03T08:19:00

I would have liked to play a longer game with more platforms and light/dark mechanics. Anyway the graphics are really nice, very smooth, it have some interesting monsters, and I like that.

Get the flock out of here! by phaed 2011-05-04T06:41:00

Monocle Engine ! Awesome :D the game fits the theme in an original way I think, it was nice. (played on Linux 64 bits, no problems at all)

LD21 — Escape

Stratus by RichMakeGame 2011-08-22T11:53:00

That was awesome, I want more !

Remind me Laputa by Miyazaki, and Skies of Arcadia (Dreamcast RPG)

LD24 — Evolution

Ages of Irving by Deconstructeam 2012-08-29T18:38:00

This is one of my favorite entry so far. Really amazing game, great work man ! An astonishing amount of content for 72 hours, I was blown away. I would definitively play an extended version with sounds and music.

Hunt'em! by Zamando 2012-08-28T16:19:00

What a lovely game !

Embryotic by reverso13 2012-08-30T12:15:00

Didn't expect that ending ^^

Badass by Sos 2012-08-29T18:58:00

Like always, SoS = FUCKING SUPER AWESOME CRAZINESS. You silly bastard :D <3

My Time by GamesByZed 2012-08-29T17:16:00

OH I'M JUST A THEORY ?! YOU'RE JUST A BITCH !
Awsome :D

My Time by GamesByZed 2012-08-29T17:17:00

OH I'M JUST A THEORY ?! YOU'RE JUST A BITCH !
Awesome :D

Coin-Operated Afternoon by Pierrec 2012-09-16T09:38:00

Hey, you're getting better and better at drawing characters. Nice use stop-motion, very original idea, it's the first time I see it in a LD game and the first time I play this kind of game.
Many choices in the dialogues that change completely the game, but you have to restart again and again to see everything, it's a bit repetitive. I wish the choices you made have an influence on the evolution of the characters relationship when you return to the guy's place to play again.

Unnatural Selection by SaiKai 2012-08-29T16:59:00

I'm a big fan of the meteor's graphics, it feels really powerful ! Funny for a 5 hours game, nice work.

Porte par le Vent by Elisée and friends 2012-08-29T13:38:00

I really like the graphics, levels are huge for a LD and the game is very fun. It actually make me want to try CraftStudio. Definitively an enjoyable game, but the difficulty is a little hard, checkpoints between levels could be a good improvement.

Monkey Bowling by olav_st 2012-08-30T14:19:00

Cool last evolution and ending

Kitten Mate by Canard Sauvage 2012-08-28T14:32:00

The applet is not loading (tried on firefox and chrome) and the .jar's window pops out of my screen so I can't see the game ? move the window :/

LD25 — You are the Villain

Happy Little Murder Friends by farmergnome 2012-12-22T07:43:00

Incredibly complete and polished entry. Extremely fast paced action rampage game. This is something strange to say but the colors you choose for some levels are just perfect (http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-4DsDbhfCoHU/UNS_B0BA-qI/AAAAAAAAALE/L57W8q7wdaA/s1600/MF5.png). Very minimal graphics and yet it's full of life, so much happening on screen. 5 stars in visual and audio for me.
I liked the main menu too.

Weirdo question time : does the characters you can choose to play with are indie developers/games ? :D (Edmund McMillen, Johann Sebastian Joust, Danny Baranowsky, ... ?)

Revenge Bear by dek 2012-12-19T13:34:00

Graphics and animations are amazingly good ! Wouldn't mind if there were more particles (blood !).
Good entry !

TYRANOFORCE by blob 2012-12-22T07:03:00

One button game like Pax Britannica (http://paxbritannica.henk.ca/), you did very well in 72h. Very polished, the ships seems well balanced but the 60 sec limit is too hard in my opinion; the game's short but funny and would have a good re-play value without the 60 limit.

Close My Side by DiscoFish 2012-12-18T20:50:00

More like a short interactive (not that much) story than an actual game. But what a story, man ! It's completely insane and amazing ! You fucking psychopath :D I really loved it.
Good graphics and music too, fit well with what's happening.

Nosferatu by jerombd 2012-12-20T12:02:00

I have to agree with everyone else that the game aesthetic is fantastic ! But I didn't finished it, got discouraged before the end. Probably because of the collision; the limited number of life was a cool thing, don't remove it !

Abrupt Salvation by NostraDamon 2012-12-19T10:08:00

You did an amazing job, the game is very fun !

Dastardly Fiend by PixelMonkey 2012-12-16T21:53:00

Simple but funny :)

The last game before the end of the world by grifdail 2012-12-18T20:13:00

Nice and simple. Really good music too. However, it goes too fast for my eyes/brain, you should consider reducing the speed.

ECHO CHAMBER by Loren 2012-12-19T12:29:00

very original, but it seems a bit too easy and repetitive... great take on the theme though

Jean Jaures Reloaded by Toki Anholmes 2012-12-19T13:17:00

I grew up in the town where Jean Jaures is born and grew up. When I was a child, if someone would had told me that I would play a game where you have to shoot Jean Jaures repetitively, I would not have believed it. And still, here I am, playing this game :D Feels really strange.

Anyway, good work on the graphics and menu, gives a good mood and feels really like the beginning of the previous century.
Gameplay is nice and simple. However, turrets don't seems to be very effective ?

Cow Stealer by ParaPup 2012-12-19T12:43:00

Gets very repetitive, you should include a score or a win/lose condition or something. However, not bad at all for a first game, like Ratking says, keep doing games ! :)

Flash Simulator 2013 by Hapistorique 2012-12-16T21:40:00

I laughed so hard... it was fun :)

The Quite Annoying League by Pierrec 2012-12-19T15:25:00

This game is absurdly fun, pretty, hilarious and enjoyable from the start to the end! Feels like breath of fresh air.

Evile, inc by nickworks 2012-12-19T12:17:00

Well executed idea, with proper graphics and sound/music, you'll have a really great game !

Carnage by SXPanda 2012-12-19T10:16:00

Really liked it. The game deserves its name, it was huge massacre ! Nice powers too, but controls are a bit odd.

Form of the Destructor by diggersworld 2012-12-19T12:38:00

Fun little game. I love the splash screen !

Godwin by nitramgc 2012-12-19T12:57:00

Pixel hunting was a pain in the ass, but the game deserves that you give it a try just for dat freaking rotary saw ! That was brutal. And satisfying...

Atomic Creep Spawner!! by deepnight 2012-12-18T19:06:00

As good as pr0n

Ore Chasm by Black Ships Fill the Sky 2013-01-07T15:03:00

One of the most addictive game of this LD. I played and finished it many times; all alone, with friends, and with strangers.

What I liked :
* the game feels really good and is very fun, with all the lasers, and propulsion, and explosions.
* loved the in game interface to buy stuff.
* the theme worked for me. You're just destroying the planet to get the last resources, so yeah, the players are definitively villains greedy bastards.
* the pirate cave ! so awesome the first time I found it !
* graphics and music, just well done, you know your stuff.

What I didn't like / could be improved :
* there's no ending :( I would expect to find something after the last layer.
* the first ~30 minutes or so is challenging, but after getting all upgrades/weapons the game is too easy. Maybe some monsters or something could change that.
* I would had love to keep every weapons I bought.
* the upgrades buttons would need confirmations with <space> like weapons. How many times I felt on the wrong upgrade...
* in the post LD version, me and my friend encountered the bug where we got stuck and disappeared.
* on the post LD version, if I host a game and a friend join the game, but I get disconnected or refresh the page, the host is listed with others and my friend can still continue playing but I can't join the game (didn't try on the normal version).

I really think this game has a huge potential. Fuck, I would even pay for an enhanced version with more upgrades, maybe monsters/boss, proper ending... or at least, I'm sure more players could enjoy it if you post it on web portals like Kongregate.

Long story short, I know you're busy with BroForce, but this game is super addictive and already complete on itself, it only needs some little changes to be freaking awesome !

Anyway, you got a new fan :)

Greed by Gib 2012-12-18T19:50:00

Gib is the anonymous account of Peter Molyneux, yup.
5 stars for innovation, very original and unique answer to the theme.

Tale of Scale by ratking 2012-12-19T14:38:00

5 stars for innovation.
You should really dig more into it, it's a very unique concept that I've never saw anywhere else.

Withdrawal by wupto 2012-12-19T16:00:00

Extremely solid and polished for game made in such a small amount of time, well done ! Very solid, Hotline Miami vibes, well executed. Absurdly good game :)

Cruel Cruel Dastard by alect 2012-12-19T10:29:00

Amazingly good puzzle game !

Beach, Please! by Elisée and friends 2012-12-19T07:29:00

Well done, CraftStudio people, well done. Very pretty, as always

Holly Jolly Pyromaniac by UndergroundPixel 2012-12-20T11:28:00

Art and music are awesome, very polished game, but the gameplay needs more variations.

Lootology : Experiment #001 by Lythom 2012-12-18T20:36:00

The light saber mechanic is really fun, I had some amazing epic battles. Very challenging.
I didn't understand what's up with the "loot system based on my actions" though. And I'm sure how the game's related to the theme.

Cell 22 by Pitoum 2012-12-22T07:19:00

A nice idea and incredibly polished. Put some sounds / ambient music in it, and you'll have an moody and immersive game.
I have to ask : is prisoner #31 a reference to Face McShooty in Borderlands 2 ? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVpg0vws10Y)

Unhappy Holidays! by GeorgeBroussard 2012-12-19T14:47:00

Simple but great. Love the sprites

Evil Robot of Doom Crushes Innocent Town due to Parliamentary Disagreement by Nik Sudan 2012-12-19T15:49:00

Great aesthetics and art style. I might like it even more if the game was slower, I feel like it's a little hard and the enemies come too fast.

LD26 — Minimalism

HELPME_ by Sestren 2013-04-30T00:54:00

Haha fun and creative idea :D it take time to get used to the control, but once you're mastering it, you're back to the good'ol days when you were just a child in pajamas on a sunday morning playing the NES. Had a good time, thanks :)

Gods Will Be Watching by Deconstructeam 2013-05-16T09:35:00

Excellent work Deconstructeam !

Factorism by dagothig 2013-05-05T12:04:00

I love this kind of SpaceChem-like puzzle game (well, it's different but it's my only reference :s)
I would have loved some music. Pretty complete game, I don't know what else to say actually...

Gimme back my keys by pinkmonkeyhead 2013-05-01T04:03:00

Great visual style and nice music !

simpLify by SonnyBone 2013-04-30T00:20:00

Pretty impressive graphics... my god, this game is beautiful. And so is the music and sounds effects, once again, pretty impressive for one person, you have a hell of a talent sir ! Well done.

SpeedJumper ! by Nakato 2013-04-30T14:12:00

A fun (and very hard) one-button game ! Congratulations !

Escape by Colisan 2013-05-13T15:07:00

"Controls (not in the game for a better minimalist look)" Yeah, sure, nice try :p
Nice animation and the humour was greatly welcomed :D
Even if there's bugs, the game's pretty polished, especially for a 48h. Well done, I loved it !

Back to Rainbows by Nangie 2013-04-30T00:48:00

Yes, you can recompile it to fix it. (having this issue too, even with mssvcr110.dll in the folder -Win7 x64)

Simplification Quest by Adbook 2013-05-05T12:22:00

I loved the visual part (tiles and the character), it's nice you took the time to write a story too. But I have encountered some bugs : the player walks backward, sometimes the run mode is activated without me pushing shift key, some tiles doesn't show up (exit door) and sounds aren't playing (on windows 7 at least).
It's pretty hard too, made to level 4 but I then gave up. I think you should consider making an easier game for your next LD (or maybe it's just me sucking with platformers...). Or maybe putting some checkpoints in the level would solve it ?

dotLife by ddionisio 2013-04-30T14:29:00

That was sweet and beautiful :') Simple gameplay but very enjoyable, I love the FX you put in it. Very moody and atmospheric. Great entry !

(Follow the) Line by Chman 2013-04-29T16:33:00

Well done ! Great colors and enjoyable gameplay !
Too bad there's no music, I would have loved some for this kind of game.

One Word RPG by Clavus 2013-04-30T14:06:00

Your first intention was very interesting, that's too bad you ran out of time to complete it.

Chez Angelo by EdoMiyamoto 2013-04-30T14:47:00

Oh, I played your previous entry (A small village), there's a lot of improvements since back then !
A lot of characters to talk to, a lot of objects to interact with, your game is full of life ! This kind of narrative game reminds me Thirty Flights of Loving.
Had a great time, until I had to found the key. I did find it but I wasn't able to pick it up :/ Can you help ? (I first talk to the guy next to the flower, then to the guy downstairs, jump over the bar, pressed E looking at the key but nothing happened :( )
I want to finish this great game !

beTween by Benn 2013-04-29T13:55:00

Simple and clean idea, I really love it. But the game's freezing a little bit.

Balls! by Codexus 2013-05-05T09:34:00

I'm always impressed when I see someone creating a fully animated and textured character for LD. Great graphics and music, but gameplay-wise I didn't get that much fun, even though the level design is nice. Pushing a ball is kinda boring in my opinion, maybe adding some variants to the level could make it more interesting ? Like floors that change the physics of the ball, or maybe timed moving wall... don't know

TOOM by PoV 2013-05-05T13:55:00

I'm impressed by the visual style of this game. Finished it, was worth playing. A little short.

Vs. by KJScott 2013-04-30T00:03:00

I feel dumb not figuring out what to do...

Minimal Defense by Xelanon 2013-04-30T00:42:00

Simple game but yet very fun. Well done !
(I'm not a big fan of the negative point when you miss) (and btw, I love the first comment xD kind of true about the graphics, it still is a fun game)

Myrne 6312 by Beldarak 2013-04-30T01:25:00

I played it alone (unfortunately) but it was awesome. By the game is made to be played on a AZERTY keyboard, which sucks if you're are on QWERTY, you should add a option of it (or make the QWERTY the default one)

Terminally ill by Sebastian 2013-05-04T07:27:00

Pwwwwetty hard... require some multi-task :)
Loved it, sound & music, screen effects, that's rad !

FOLD by jwaap 2013-05-01T14:16:00

This game is a real breath of fresh air. Beautiful aesthetic and sounds.

Telekinetic Minimalist Cult 5: Packrat Nightmare by RobotLovesKitty 2013-05-13T15:17:00

Minimalist, Ho!

Minimalist Horror Story by MinionStudios 2013-05-04T07:18:00

Loved that the candle is burning, pretty creepy, I was stress to end up in the dark. Remind me Amnesia, which is a good thing.
Searching in the furniture was kinda hard and boring. I like the game though

13 Squares by aduros 2013-04-29T16:25:00

Really love this idea, and it's the first I play this kind of metroidvania

BASHLAND - Breakout Mario Mashup by McFunkypants 2013-04-29T14:16:00

Quiet enjoyable

Line Quest by RandomSpark 2013-04-30T00:28:00

Haha, took me a moment to figure out how to play, but this "1 dimension" roguelike is pretty neat. You kept the core mechanics and gameplay but simplified it, and that's quiet a good job you did ! Very minimalist, and yet fun, I'll give you a 5 star for the theme.
Cute story and dialogs at the beginning too :)

Line Quest by RandomSpark 2013-04-30T13:59:00

I'm back here to say that, after playing a lot of other entries, yours is one of the smarter so far, I really love it. It kinda reminds me The Linear RPG by Sophie Houlden (http://www.sophiehoulden.com/games/thelinearrpg/) I don't know if you ever played it.

CubeMaster by JimmyLord 2013-04-30T13:33:00

Wasn't expecting this "Panic!" situation. That was stressful ^^

SPACEd out by Alex Camilleri 2013-05-01T15:48:00

I love one button game ^^ good take on the theme and very lively music. Nice entry !

Balls Balls Balls by matthias_zarzecki 2013-05-13T14:55:00

Would be perfect on smartphone !

Bee Trip by jim3wg 2013-04-29T17:11:00

Really cute and pretty graphics. The game gets repetitive, but I know you had a limited time.
But it could be fun to have an enhanced version with better gameplay and music (I would play it on android :) )

That day by FredericRP 2013-04-30T13:50:00

owww... I was expecting a 2nd scene after the credits. It was short and nice, very complete game on his own, full of references and jokes all around. The text on the bottom of the screen was a great idea. Had a good time, thanks !

Controlled State by GameNacho 2013-04-30T01:10:00

I've been questionned, tortured and killed... Pretty deep game... I first thought it'll be a "every day is exactly the same" type of game, but that's just a part of your dystopian society. Quiet brutal ending for me :)
Pretty neat game, very moody. Let's try the other endings !

Controlled State by GameNacho 2013-04-30T01:15:00

@ataxkt I actually liked the graphics. Everything's gray, except the propanganda. Felt very depressed while playing as a citizen of this morose country. So, that's a perfect match for me.

hunter hungry by Jonathan Whiting 2013-04-30T14:22:00

Great aesthetic ! I love how took the theme to make a caveman game with basic objective : to feed. Gameplay and level design are good and complete, and so are the music and sounds. Great game !

Drug Hunt by kill0u 2013-05-01T16:14:00

Sooooo good :D It reminds me when I... hm, wait, no, forget about that...
---
No source ? Too bad, I would have loved see how you did the screen perturbations on the splash screen.

Mustache Armies by TurboDindon 2013-05-18T11:53:00

Pretty fun !

Daft Pong by mikelovesrobots3 2013-05-13T14:53:00

I love that, when the ball goes too fast, it's actually making some sort of minimalist 8bit music :p
Fun, well done.

today is your lucky day by robb 2013-04-30T00:31:00

I'm not sure what to do... there's always a potato under the bucket

Refracted by Dragan 2013-04-30T01:32:00

Brilliant concept, good work !

MBlok by tSwitch 2013-05-01T14:56:00

Pretty rad and original puzzle, very complete game on his own. I particularly love the design of the menu, with the background and particles. Add more levels and you'll have a good game to put on Kongregate and stuff, or mobile market.

Long live the King by Lythom 2013-05-13T14:29:00

Well, I wasn't expecting that... overlapping the 2 stories like you did was actually pretty smart ! Great and innovative way to tell a story, I loved it !

The Road by GeorgeBroussard 2013-05-01T14:26:00

"You died from playing with your dad's gun" oh my god George xD
Liked the age concept (dying was both horrible and pretty funny) and the music too. Congrats !

Pieces by wolfadex 2013-04-30T00:13:00

pretty slick controls, good level design (and i'm happy you integrated checkpoints ^^), and original minimalist graphics. Well done !

LD28 — You Only Get One

Constrained by Split82 2013-12-16T17:56:00

Pretty good concept you got here. Such a shame you only got 3 hours, I would have loved to play more levels. Very impressive though

One man, one shot by lightsoda 2013-12-16T17:13:00

I liked the aesthetic of the game, but darn it it's hard. You have to restart from the beginning when you die in the 2nd level... (I know, it's to fit in the theme). Nice work on the animation tho, the music is also pretty good too

Last Chance Supermarket by Sebastian 2013-12-18T07:45:00

Impressive game and clever response to the theme

Jejeboy: Mad Shitter by Jejeboy 2013-12-18T08:48:00

Reminds me of some levels of an good old called Crash Bandicoot on PS1. Lot of fun !

The One Ship by tiffi 2013-12-16T04:48:00

I was more interested in the dialogue between the player and the IA but those ***** fucking robots kept spawning behind by back

You Only Get One by Broxxar 2013-12-16T04:19:00

The cross-genre between adventure game, top down shooter (even if there's no real shooting involved) and horror is pretty rad man. Awesome entry.
I didn't finished the game though, I'm stuck after "using" the aerosol, no matter what I do I die.

On the bad side I would say that the walls and doors are pretty hard to see.

Bahha:Monster Slayer *TEST* by SlothSoft 2013-12-16T04:32:00

I have to say the game felt pretty good right at the start, but after 3 or 4 rooms the level is completely empty and there's nothing else.
Maybe try to work on it tomorrow and enter the compo instead ?

Dare to Dig! by Mirroar 2013-12-17T02:15:00

I haven't rated it yet but it's one of my favorite game so far in this LD, it's very addictive and I played multiple times since yesterday.
Yet I can't find this damn fountain of youth. How deep do I have to dig to found the it ? (My best score so far is 17084)
I will beat the shit out this game and then I'll come back here to rate it !

Dare to Dig! by Mirroar 2013-12-17T02:47:00

Ok, I've got my answer. Finished the game 8D http://i.imgur.com/YkYkJD3.png
And new personal best score : 48185. I was something like 10 or 12 levels deep, maybe ?
It was so much fun, great game !

Color Range by allinlabs 2013-12-16T20:40:00

Thank you guys for noticing, I pushed an hotfix to address this bug.

Only One Chance by johnfn 2013-12-16T23:26:00

Now that I played this game, I'm happier than when I started playing it.

Jump Chip by arkeus 2013-12-16T23:32:00

Melted by brain and my fingers... I love it but this is so hard for me

You only get one COLOUR by soy_yuma 2013-12-18T23:43:00

Hi, I'm the guy who made a game similar to yours, Thanks for your comments ! :)
I actually really like your level design, especially the tutorials one, I think it's better than in my game. For example, the ones with positive/negative spaces are a great idea (tutorial 4 if I remember correctly). We should merge our games :D
I also like your peaceful and ambient music that goes well with the game.

Make it Count by tSwitch 2013-12-16T03:58:00

I know you're not supposed to, but it felt pretty satisfying to kill the hostages too, you know, just once in a while...
A well made game. I have the feeling the game would be pretty great on mobile too !

LD29 — Beneath the Surface

I Contemplated the Sun of Limbo by Evilion 2014-05-01T18:46:00

Fantastic visuals & great ambient sounds. Love the man shaped.. thingy.

our god lives underground by Andrew Shouldice 2014-05-02T21:25:00

Too short. A lot of good things though: loved the architecture work you done, there some neat ambient sounds, and the black and white contrast is superb. Not much to do in the game (simple puzzle mechanics like in Ico would be wonderful), but I think that ok, it's contemplative and there's a lot done for a 48h entry. Well done!

The Valley Rule by Raiyumi 2014-05-01T17:06:00

Very moody, very much like fez but in a good way. Polished entry with awesome sounds and music, great art aesthetic. Sadly a few bugs (game froze while going through a door)

A Glorious Escape for A Lich King by Benjamin 2014-05-01T18:06:00

Can't find any flaw, it's a great entry and it's very satisfying to play it a long time. I paid for game that are way worse than this and I spent less time on them...
Great job!

Kinetectonic by headchant 2014-04-30T16:12:00

OMG, this game. So perfect for a ludum dare. Simple yet deep. I'd love to be able to do such a great game one day. (I can't keep things simple somehow -_-)
It's fun to play, like, once I understood was going on I was just addicted. Great entry and congrats ! :)

UNDERQUEST by Tweak 2014-04-30T12:59:00

I think the graphics are just gorgeous, totally dig this style.

The Sea Has No Claim by dukope 2014-04-30T00:00:00

Great aesthetic and choice of color, the allocation interface is just great. The game start very simple, but there is a lot of new equipments for each new rescue, which add a lot of flavor to the game as it get harder. I'm not sure there's a lot of replayability to it, as the game allow the player to choose a lot of resources, so I usually take a little of everything and there's no crucial choice to make here.
Still, a great entry and a very enjoyable game!

Vertico by UltimateWalrus 2014-05-02T21:46:00

Very impressive for 48h. A lot of good work done on so many fields. I don't know how you managed to do it but you rock

Indie Space Miner by Supersonic112 2014-05-01T13:10:00

It needs clearer way to indicate what's happening. A meter or something

June 20th by Pierrec 2014-05-02T19:41:00

Even with those pixelated minimalist graphics, you made me feel at the beach. The little stuff, like looking up and see birds flying, looking down and have the feet in the water while searching for seashell.
Second ending would have been nice, I'm pretty sure I got all those little fuckers soul! Muahaha.
Anyway, great entry, and as always, delightful dialogs full of life <3

Beneath The Surface - The Path by Baknik 2014-04-30T00:39:00

It fits to the theme. Too bad there isn't much levels. I liked the indirect control over the physics bellow

Sub Bomber by Rahazan 2014-05-02T20:52:00

Very frustrating we can't control the reactor. But it's pretty good for 8 hours!
Not sure how to feel and rate all those flappy bird clones though :/

Soulitude by bitserum 2014-05-02T21:28:00

Huge work done for the graphics, it's beautiful! I want moar! T_T

Hanoka by Wolve 2014-05-04T13:08:00

The movement & shooting system in the game feel very very good and is rewarding, it's a lot of fun

The Find by Alexis Moroz 2014-04-30T16:21:00

The game can be so meta when associated with LD entries :D

SUPER ROBO GARDEN ARENA by nxT 2014-05-03T11:17:00

Very pretty characters and pixel art

Ant Vision by frickajr 2014-05-01T19:44:00

Great concept, this game made me realize that it's just very very fun to play insects. It reminds me of a playstation 2 game where you played a mosquito. Would had love to see humans in the game. Or animal or some sort. even other insects. But that seems very complicated to implement for a Ludum Dare. Good entry

Shadow Gems by Flatgub 2014-05-01T15:29:00

As pointed out, the platformer engine is not smooth, and the controls are... well, not great. But if you get past this little things, you have a pretty deep game with great mechanics that really deserve to get a try. I personally loved it, it's fun and pretty much complete as a whole. You and your game, sir, deserve more votes and comments! I'd love to see this concept extended :) (I'll admit I have a kink for mining game with resource management)

Shadow Gems by Flatgub 2014-05-01T15:49:00

Some ideas to make the game even cooler:
* metrics system to see how deep we are (or some other stats)
* unified treasure/gems system, so i can buy whatever I want
* infinite (or at least larger) map ?
* went to the bottom, but there were nothing special. an end game would be cool but I suppose you ran out of time
* upgrades

Mine Explorer by Joe Williamson 2014-05-04T13:34:00

Very nice pixel art and animation

Beneath the City by deepnight 2014-05-02T19:08:00

Excellent, as always. Very impressive when I see what I can do in the same amount of time.

Dungeon Break by anissen 2014-05-01T19:33:00

I think I made it to the surface, even though there were nothing to do there. Some levels have a good progression, and are fun to solve, some are too easy (the last ones). That's the hard part when making a puzzle game: knowing the difficulty of the level you just made. Like others said, the game needs some feedback on desktop when moving tiles, but it seems fit for mobile (gave it a try on my nexus 4 but the game screen was too big).
Nice work!

Search Beneath the Surface by halfmage 2014-04-30T12:49:00

I think the camera is following the little bud too quickly (and too closely ?). I'm getting motion sickness from playing this game. I like the art style though, the little dude and the ship flying at the hand. I made it with 5 health left, that was close ! ^^

Sewer Quest by daandruff 2014-04-30T13:59:00

Fantastic graphics but the music loop is too short and repetitive, it gets very boring.

Digable Planet by Oddly Shaped Pixels 2014-04-30T00:33:00

I feel the game has potential but I can't wrap my head around the controls. Things happen too quickly, drill too fast and the first few games were hard.
On the other side, graphics are great, and I see the strategy in it. Just, my brain and my hand somehow refuse to work together and I can't beat it.

Beneath The Surface by adamwoolridge 2014-05-02T20:18:00

Reminds me of a boss in Fez (from the Dreamcast). Liked the concept and the graphics, but the control for rotating felt weird.

Mole Empire by PriorBlue 2014-05-02T18:56:00

Couldn't get past the spiders sadly, tried 5 times but I suck :( But there seems to have various enemies, nice shadow effects, the music was perfect and the animation really worked well.
Impressive performance for a Love game, I didn't know you could do such cpu intensive calculation with it. I played a lot with the editor too, it was way better than what I use for making map. Nicely done!

CAVE TO DOWN by kato 2014-05-01T19:16:00

Little word of advise: don't use installers for your game, usually people don't like them and prefer zip file (but I've no idea if it's even possible with Gamemaker?).
That being said, nice little game, would definitively see that on mobile. Good work!

Hide-n-Stab by bendmorris 2014-04-30T15:42:00

Great concept, too bad it's hard to find someone who plays at the same time as you. I guess that's the problem when you do multiplayer for a Ludum Dare... Still, fits perfectly the theme, very original.

Come On, Sugar ! by Skywilly 2014-04-30T00:54:00

Well... The game over voice definitively made it for me. Great job!

Fish Deluxe by leafo 2014-04-30T13:32:00

Good visuals and music, it sets the mood, but the gameplay is a little bit too repetitive.

Boku no Tentacle by Zed 2014-05-02T19:59:00

The gameplay is not very original but feel good and the dialogs are just brilliant (and dubbed !). Really happy I've played this.

You are a metro car by fserb 2014-05-03T20:17:00

Pretty cool and simple idea, well executed, and the result is really fun to play. I like it! Well done

Inspector Badass by Elisée and friends 2014-04-30T13:25:00

It's the best game ever. What else can I say ?
The game has sound effects, music and good voice over, gorgeous graphics, randomly generated levels, punks from the 80's, multiple levels... Very polished and complete game, I'm giving 5 stars in a lot of categories. Just a fantastic game, good work team!

Dig Up! by eriksundqvist 2014-05-01T19:09:00

I like this kind of digging game! But there's something missing here, I don't know, maybe more diversity...? Would had love to find more materials, maybe treasure, and sometimes I found caves, but there's just nothing special in it :/
And more cool bad ass stuff in the store perhaps? Like something that just explode the blocks, bombs, lasers, you name it.
And I couldn't find a way to restart. Behind stuck down there is a little harsh don't you think. Maybe restart from the shop while losing our cargo would be better?
Still, good music, nice graphics, that's a good work you've done there!

LD33 — You are the Monster

Fear Syndicate Thesis by Deconstructeam 2015-08-25T20:09:00

That ending.
Deconstructeam you are incredible... my mind is blown... I have to lay down for a minute... I am in a half-conscious hypnotic state right now

Unsolicited by dukope 2015-08-27T11:40:00

I don't know why and how, but this is fun!
By the way, there's an annoying interface bug where the list of names pops up but the origins point of the popup seems to be out of the screen, so I can't reach some of the names. Happens often when the list is big and I have to fill a blank at the to of the form

Escape From Twump Tower by 01010111 2015-08-25T21:47:00

I am so impressed by the level design O_O like, some people really know their stuff around here

Up & Away! by bytegrove 2015-08-31T11:36:00

Incredible game for a compo entry! Reminded me of some old Playstation platformer games

Separated by rxi 2015-08-28T11:45:00

amazing mood, pixels and music

The Monster Inside by Random Seed Games 2015-09-03T12:04:00

Fantastic game with a clever story telling. It's so polished on every aspects that you could probably sell it if it was longer.

Orange Squares...Beware! by Benn 2015-08-26T22:46:00

I've enjoyed your games since The Last Survivor. You always come up with new and originals mechanics, and exploits them fully. On a less personal level, man, that game is pretty hard and is really not that much related to the theme...

Daikaiju by GarethIW 2015-08-27T12:02:00

A lot of games with gigantic monster destroying cities in this LD edition! :)
This is fun, I like that we play the monster but it's shown through a tv news feed, that way we get some feedback on how the horror is perceived by the humans, we get the 2 sides of this "story".
The tv effects with the news banner scrolling are very polished, but the in-game seems a little but unfinished, it's probably missing some colors. Although I've never been a big fan of a 3D game with 2D objects in it, some objects are hard to grab / to target. But I understand 3D requires a lot more development time.

Monsters Rescue by palsina 2015-08-25T11:13:00

The art and design of the monsters are just incredible. The controls are a little clonky though, and the gameplay gets quickly repetitive. But it's incredibly well polished, well done guys!

A Bad Wolf King is Hard to Feed by McFunkypants 2015-09-13T21:38:00

The controls are a little too sensible to my taste, but exploring this beautiful world make it up for it.

Who Shot First by CheesyRamen 2015-08-25T18:14:00

Man, that's hard. But it's definitively a good and original concept that should be explored even further. It's deep, it's fun, I dig it.
On the other side, I'd love a bigger room with more obstacles.
I'm giving you a 5 for the theme, best idea i've seen so far.

taikun by zillix 2015-08-26T21:50:00

I love this indirect control!

Necromorph by Supernaught 2015-09-02T21:52:00

Super beautiful game and fun to play. The gameplay switch when you kill an enemy kept it really fresh to play, and I enjoyed finishing it!
The controls are a little buggy (sometime it would do the action, other times it wouldn't change direction or just stop...). I also feel there is something missing with the knight not attacking you.
Still, it's a really fresh platformer.

The Monster Files by Literal Games 2015-09-09T11:43:00

Great game and it's actually pretty long. The fighting seems weird, but everything else is perfect!

Galactic Space Crusher by Jishenaz 2015-08-25T18:47:00

The game is not finished, but it's a good start, there's definitively something to explore here; the ship and all the cannons feels great; I like how it's slow paced and everything is subject to time and distance, that you have to think ahead where the enemy will be when the lasers arrives.
But it's too easy and too repetitive in it's current state. Yet promising! Good job

Delicious Cortex by deepnight 2015-08-26T11:11:00

Always a good time with your games. Everything is perfectly executed, the difficulty curve is good, it's easy to play and you understand immediately how things work. Many thing to learn from it. Well done!

Monster Cube - MIQ by andreiichim 2015-08-28T12:08:00

The theme is a bit light but the player movements are great and smashing the little cubes feels actually really satisfying. I had more fun than what I asked for

Ben(guin) by tuben999 2015-09-02T11:34:00

Real cute characters and animation

Hero Mate by Lancelot Gao 2015-09-03T21:53:00

It's crazy how good the graphics are and how polished the game is. Really good game and interesting take on the theme

Mornings of a Seventeen Year-Old Girl by Mike Mezhenin 2015-08-26T23:12:00

The aesthetics reminded me of Daria, which instantly caught my attention. I'm a sucker for this 'everyday slices of life' games and I love this one. Even tough the gameplay is pretty mechanical, it's beautiful and touching, without even saying a word.
Great choice for the music btw

Shark by camlang 2015-09-02T22:16:00

Pretty fun and gory but it gets kinda repetitive and boring after a while. More enemies / people to eat, something more to do under the water and leveling up / powers would solve this though, if you're planning on a post-jam version of it.

Writhe: The Thing from the Omega Sector by DragonXVI 2015-08-26T22:58:00

This is truly horrifying. In a good way! I like the pixel aesthetic with modern effects like lights, the game plays well, is simple to understand but fun.
And man, how awesome is the music?! I launched the game but went to another tab, and after a few moments, I was like "what's that sound? Is it from the tentacules games? Holy crap, that great... ok let's play it!".

There's no mention of any collaborators. Did you do it all by yourself? Because the music is incredible, the level design is pretty good and interesting, graphics are great... some people just know their stuff here!

This is NOT a scam! by Reccy 2015-08-25T11:59:00

Disclaimer: can safely played at work. It's actually a great app if you're working in a call center or IT department. I see a lot of potential for pranks in this... But enough with my evil plans directed at my co-workers.

People might be fooled by the austere interface of the game, but it's actually perfectly coherent with the game.

There's a connection between you and the people you scam. At least that's what I felt. I would love to play an enhanced version with more in-depth conversation, get attached to their personality. And then just scam them!
The summary at the end was a really nice touch. I felt even more connected to them. Like, my choice had consequences to this people.

Like you can imagine, I really liked you game. Consider me a fan. It reminded me of @oujevipo's game "Never Alone Hotline" (http://ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-22/?action=preview&uid=1874), but in a more dicky way.


You monster.

Nimble by Lynx 2015-08-28T23:37:00

My goodness this game is good

Space Invadees by lanestp 2015-08-31T00:28:00

5/5 for the acting performance :D LD games need more voice over!

Youkai by Nibble Bits Studio 2015-08-27T17:12:00

Super satisfying, simple to play, the controls feel good, it is indeed perfect. It really help releasing stress

The Old One by Chris Olsen 2015-08-30T12:06:00

The aesthetics and graphics are incredible!

Tentacles by crafteverywhere 2015-09-02T11:26:00

Very nice and polished game. At first I didn't notice that I could level up, you could use something more visible than a flickering button. Maybe a text near the middle of the screen "Use your point to level up" when it's available

Don't get caught! by nmrsmn 2015-08-25T11:28:00

Having no minimap and being lost was part of the fun, but having some kind of indication of which direction is the exit would have been nice. Even if it's only at the very beginning of the level. The exit itself can easily be mistaken to something else and is easy to miss. But enough with my complains. It's an incredible first Ludum Dare entry, with replayability, good graphics (even though it's not yours) and a nice take on the theme. Well done

Excremonsters! by Ninja Garage 2015-08-28T11:24:00

Eating while playing this game was not the best idea, one question popped in my mind: was the poop texture "made" during the jam or did you externalized this process, I'm curious?

Small People Problems by Brainfreezeman 2015-08-26T11:42:00

Holy broccoli! I don't know how there's not more review on this game. The game is very polished and is freaking fun to play. Also, giant worm + eating people + destroy buildings. What's not to love about it ? And it's perfectly executed. Great job to the team!

The Mammoth: A Cave Painting by inbetweengames 2015-09-02T22:29:00

Incredible narrative game

Abominable by Cosmic5 2015-08-31T11:50:00

Very nice graphics and good mood

iMonster by chkkll 2015-08-26T11:55:00

Maybe I'm missing something but... players can't attack you? Is there something to do other than killing them (too easily I would say) ?
I love the graphics and the bloody floor is freaking rad, the music is great too. But gameplay wise, something is missing

Inner Monsters by psypol 2015-08-25T21:24:00

I'm very impressed how well polished the game is. There's multiple music (and they're pretty good for a game jam too!), the take on the theme is pretty clever, there's a lot of different situations (even though I'd love to have different objects for the same situation) and it's fun to play.
Very well done guys!

bloody tentacles by zuurr 2015-08-26T11:28:00

The level tiles and enemies are a little too repetitive, but the monster is freaking awesome and I love how it moves his bloody tentacles. A real nightmare vision. Well done!

Motherflipin' T-Rex! by mantis 2015-08-25T17:40:00

Dinosaur + Destruction = a combination that can't fail. This is so much fun

Btw, why are the people flying at the end? Is everyone going to heaven because everyone is dead? :D

You Have Been Found Guilty by Tommyno222 2015-09-02T11:49:00

Great graphics, and the introduction is so well made and has everything. But the jumpings are kind of ridiculous, I finished the game without killing anyone and without losing any life... which could be a good gameplay alternative, but really isn't.

Chompy by GeorgeBroussard 2015-09-01T11:49:00

Super cute baby monster. It brings back memories.

Slasher by Miltage 2015-08-28T23:31:00

Challenging and very random in the kids movements, would love to be able to lure them someplace dark or distract some of them
