LD46 — Keep it alive

I am your Dead by Akelliona 2020-04-21T09:08:39Z

The idea behind this game is interesting, with all the lore and backstory. The sound design is cool. But this game can seem very confusing, especially the movement mechanic. So i think the main game loop could use a bit of polish. Keep it up :smile: :thumbsup:

Damn, i'm really digging the atmosphere of this game, it definitely has a silver thread running through it. Very mysterious. I love the weirdly sensual sounds from the flame :laughing: The flame definitively reminds me of the flame demon from Howl's Moving Castle :thinking: Also beeautiful graphics!

Overall a really nice game, with a mysterious aesthetic, keep it up :smile:

*SPOILER ALERT* When the avatar appears in the flame, and i walk into it, then screen just goes black, is this intentional??

Protect the little one by Vodzik 2020-04-21T09:02:33Z

I like the graphics and the theme is pretty good. Reminds me of the game ICO where you, as the only character capable of fighting, has to protect another weaker character. The character also feels good to control. If i should criticize anything, then it is that it is hard to know how the game's systems operate (like the enemy wave mechanic), but i figured it out eventually. Nice game :smile:

Ahh a delightful game, hungry traveller! Jokes aside, it is rare to see story driven games in game jams. This game definitely has a very mysterious atmosphere about it. I like the innovative backstory and lore, and the writing is pretty good. This reminds me a lot of a specific game, that i can't remember the name of. All in all, a nice mysterious game :smiley:

The theme is pretty innovative, and i like the funny graphics. Although the game is pretty difficult, and hard to get the hang of. But maybe with some slight tweaks to the mechanics, controls, and maybe the addition of a tutorial, i could imagine this would be quite fun. Although i might add, i like that the game doesn't start for real until you figure out the core mechanic. That being said, nice game :smile:

DAAAMN, this shit is amazing :smiley:. Was this made by two people? I really like how innovative the theme and mechanics are. The graphics are also really good. I also really like how simple and intuitive the controls are. When you start playing it looks like some sort of platformer, but all of a sudden - BAAM - it's a tower defense game. Great work, keep it up :smile:

The graphics are really impressive, and have a very nice and consistent aesthetic. The world is also very fleshed out, and developed, kudos! One aspect where this game could be improved, is in the communication with the player. I had to go searching through web pages to find out how to progress in the monologues, which isn't ideal. And i couldn't figure out how to attack with the sword :thinking: But that being said, this is a nice and polished game, that's very impressive for an LD jam :smile:

KiTa by MKRaw 2020-04-25T10:15:10Z

Nice, you really nailed the core game-play loop (something that's very hard for an LD game). The main mechanic is entertaining, and the difficulty scales nicely. The graphics have a really nice and consistent aesthetic. I also like the music, reminds me a bit of the Don't Starve OST, which i love. Very impressive for one person, keep it up :smile:

Edit: i just realized you didn't make the music, oh well, still great :slight_smile:

Feed Them, With A Gun! by Andrew-David 2020-04-21T11:58:56Z

I really like the sleek visuals, the game really has a clean look to it. The controls also seem very responsive:smile: I couldn't notice any prominent bugs :thumbsup:

I like this man :smile:
