Comments by Benn

LD19 — Discovery

Where am I? by Benn 2010-12-20T16:45:00

Thank you all for the great comments :)

jrrt: I should have added more colours so you could get a bit more of a song out of it! :P

The Secret Documents by Danik 2010-12-20T17:58:00

I found it a bit easy to dodge the guards rather than trying to hide, but otherwise enjoyable game! :)

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

Danger! Take. by ExciteMike 2011-05-06T15:37:00

Short, but enjoyable :) I agree with Zemmi about not needing to use the shield though.

LD21 — Escape

Chasteroids by pdehaan 2011-09-05T12:32:00

Fun little game, perhaps a tad too easy which could have been rectified by causing damage when hitting the asteroids. Good job :)

LD22 — Alone

The Last Leech by Daz 2012-01-08T22:30:00

When I first watched the intro I thought that he punched the girl :P

LD23 — Tiny World

Atomsmash by Dan C 2012-05-02T15:08:00

Sweet C64 entry! :)

MacroPong by LegacyCrono 2012-04-24T14:33:00

I like how the difficulty rises with the size of the player's resolution :)

subAtomic by MurrayL 2012-04-24T14:56:00

Very enjoyable! :)

LD26 — Minimalism

*Humorous Title!* by Graf_Grun 2013-05-16T11:41:00

Neat! I enjoyed this!

Frame Aim by Symmeteer 2013-05-02T11:06:00

I really like this idea, it's a shame there's only one level!

Short Fall by Arowx 2013-05-15T12:59:00

I really enjoyed this! I think it worked well with Unity too :)

LD27 — 10 Seconds

Clocked In by rylgh 2013-08-27T12:36:00

Full 5/5 from me. I enjoyed it a lot :)

10 by Benn 2013-09-04T12:21:00

Thanks for the awesome comments guys! @Surrealix - There is a bug where if you press the space bar really quickly, the text doesn't disappear D: Refresh and wait a bit before pressing space!

LD29 — Beneath the Surface

Orlok's Ordeal by Daveloper 2014-04-29T15:39:00

Great jam entry! I enjoyed the painting quips ^__^

Forerunner by atomic_swerve 2014-05-07T20:46:00

Nice game! I enjoyed the pixelated style :)

Flesh Hunter by Tom Gardiner 2014-05-07T20:59:00

Nice entry! I like the screenshake :P

LD30 — Connected Worlds

Circular Logic by Benn 2014-08-25T10:26:00

Thanks for the great feedback guys! :D I have added a source link for the game's code now :)

Spacegate by Cyanblue 2014-08-31T00:29:00

Like diamondgfx said, it took me a while to figure out, but I started enjoying it once I realised what I was doing ^__^

LD33 — You are the Monster

Orange Squares...Beware! by Benn 2015-08-27T11:50:00

Hey guys, thanks for the awesome comments ^__^

You guys are right about the lack of theme, I just couldn't find a way to fit it in that didn't take something away from the game.

To me Ludum Dare is about encouraging people to make games. The theme is purely supposed to help people come up with new ideas / inspiration.

If the theme isn't doing that, or is actually preventing people from making games due to disliking the theme, I heartily encourage all of you to drop the theme and make whatever you want as long as you make a game. That's why we are all here, to make games.

I will probably never win a Ludum Dare as a result but I do make games that I am proud of and to me that is more important ^__^

LD34 — Two Button Controls / Growing

OrbiHop by TnT 2016-01-03T16:28:00

Nice game! I get the feeling that I would have enjoyed it a bit more if I had control of the rotating planets instead of having to wait for it to rotate by itself, but I saw it through to the end ^__^
