LD26 — Minimalism

STL RNNR by Siewart 2013-04-30T19:23:00

My favourite of all entries I've played so far, reminds me of defrag.

MINUS by rubna 2013-05-06T14:23:00

This one was really promising! You had a solid arcade mechanic down, but unfortunately didn't execute on a game. The controls were also a little bit awkward, but the graphics were pleasing in the clean style.

Phobius3 by Troyan 2013-05-06T11:20:00

I get a 404 when I follow your link to the webplayer.

Spread by Typedeaf 2013-05-12T01:17:00

Could not find a white or blue seed. Very enjoyable mood. Really needs some player direction on where to go next like a pointer to the next seed, at least until the player has planted one of each tree.

Cubey's Confusion Cube by seflopod 2013-05-12T00:38:00

Enjoyable enough I played it twice. Couldn't tell if the level was different the second time so I guess its disorienting enough :D nice!

Cavern by Parabol 2013-05-06T11:23:00

You might want to put your game somewhere more accessible, skydrive asks for an MSN login.

Tilegrid by Binary Gambit 2013-04-30T14:25:00

Thanks for the comments, I have updated the notes with some rules clarifications. Unfortunately we didn't get around to implementing the feature to give your score immediately when you run out of tiles.

Tilegrid by Binary Gambit 2013-04-30T17:02:00

No required points for progression, just a measure of how well you performed on that map. We were thinking of implementing a progression system and some more maps, but time ran out.

Tilegrid by Binary Gambit 2013-05-03T19:18:00

The bloops are a bit loud, there is an option to turn them off in the main menu though.

Tilegrid by Binary Gambit 2013-05-20T01:28:00

Thanks for all the feedback and (hopefully) positive ratings. Check out our Postmortem and Timelapse, links above.

Minimalism by chanko08 2013-05-06T15:24:00

Fun little puzzle game, enjoyed it to the end!

The March by TeeDoubleU 2013-05-06T15:44:00

Crashes for me every time on win7 64 after the cut scene at the start.

I Want To See Space by PizzaPranks 2013-05-12T00:57:00

Great short story. Got a minor bug with a button being visible on the screen that does not go away. The rest was fabulous.

Platformer '81 by foyosoft 2013-05-12T00:48:00

Incredibly hard but fun. I played through the first level several times before realising there is only one correct combination of key presses.

Minimal Mousetraps by Johnicholas 2013-05-09T20:04:00

Would be nice if the mouse ran faster, it takes an awfully long time to see the results of your work. It's not really clear to me what the cats do?

1951 by Andrei Barsan 2013-05-02T17:50:00

Great gameplay.

Church of Minimalism by kibertoad 2013-05-09T08:40:00

Interesting concept and the events are quite varied and creative. Unfortunately I got a crash when I tried to send the military to another city, on Win7 64.

Minimalazor by Robotic 2013-05-07T12:44:00

Good concept, a lot of fun to play!

LD27 — 10 Seconds

Too simple by tryzor 2013-09-05T14:46:00

the music was incredibly loud for me on load. The movement just felt like it could do with more gravity, but overall good work!

Red Or Blue ? by leo_gri 2013-09-05T16:05:00

good fun. The one sound effect worked incredibly well!

Tardis Robot Hospital by Binary Gambit 2013-09-05T14:33:00

Ok, I have put up a playable version. Shows off our basic concept. There was a heap of problems getting the graphics to display and to get the executable to be packaged correctly.

fastDefense by little-automaton 2013-09-05T15:17:00

"9:" is an invalid integer.
I am sad as this game looked to be awesome!

Hackfield by Katamori 2013-09-06T08:12:00

Fantastic game! Only i suggest you make the "exit" green so people can see it easier, and then make it more blue as the levels go on. I liked that the background got more complex so you cant see where you are going. 5/5

Detective Shadow by Mandraw 2013-09-05T15:22:00

Good work on your first game! Cant wait to see what you do in the next Ludum Dare

Blood Trail:10 Seconds to Die by SlothSoft 2013-09-05T14:43:00

Not bad. Was a little confused if I needed to be precise or just go for it.

The Red Button by GreenyUk 2013-09-05T15:28:00

Wow! incredible effort. I love the particle trails that make your character look like you are travelling really fast!

Red/Blue by aaronj 2013-09-06T07:55:00

I had a dll error on win8 64bit but once i spammed "close" enough the game started anyway. Nice game, enjoyed it! Just needed a reset button!

Worst 10 Seconds of Your Life by biscuitdough 2013-09-05T15:35:00

interesting idea. Keeping the ball on the screen might help players to think it is possible!

Ten Second Germification by DeanoC 2013-09-05T16:00:00

interesting. Could do with a few more stages of graphical change, so that the RGB germs dont jump around so much, and perhaps more magnifications so you can see the patterns occurring around your "base". was fun!

Reactor Maintenance Simulator. by Tetha 2013-09-05T15:38:00

had a lot of fun with this. Larger levels with a bit more maze feel might work.

Super Mega Penguin X by Darkfrost 2013-09-05T14:54:00

Overall AWESOME! was good fun and the character was cute.
Ran perfectly on Win8 64 after installing the redist

Furnitorture by Steven Colling 2013-09-06T08:18:00

Fun! was a bit dark and I was unsure what to do when the whole room was full.

LD28 — You Only Get One

The Superior Resolution by phaze0 2013-12-17T00:05:00

to those who did not RTFM, please do so. Great concept. The sound effects are essential. Good use of theme. 5/5 for gfx ;)

Natural Sheep Care by nka 2013-12-17T02:05:00

great game with awesome graphics and atmosphere. Difficult as all hell.

Resistance Runner by Mezzomatto 2013-12-17T10:21:00

Apart from the quibbles that the other commenters mentioned, great stuff!

Master Thief by Kareemroks101 2013-12-17T00:51:00

it runs very well on my machine. Character animations are great. I like the level intro sequences with the boss. Good font selection. :D

Desert Robot Commandos by Binary Gambit 2013-12-17T00:33:00

oh it might be worth mentioning that the simulation only runs when you move. Press spacebar to wait!

Desert Robot Commandos by Binary Gambit 2013-12-17T04:17:00

ive added the required DLLs to the executable. Should be aok now. Thanks for all the comments so far!

Desert Robot Commandos by Binary Gambit 2013-12-26T11:01:00

I've uploaded a new version that is compatible with Love2d 0.9.0
Thanks for all the comments so far. :D

Deci-minute Gamer Dinner! by Aske 2013-12-17T00:20:00

is this "winnable"? Being stuck in a house with Payday II and GTA V is my idea of a horror story :D

Wrecked by Pomb 2013-12-17T02:11:00

fund game, very difficult. I liked the non-standard rotation and jetpack controls. The scrap metal is maybe a bit too heavy.

Old MacDonald vs Zombies by rogueNoodle 2013-12-17T13:17:00

"A ridiculous amount of fun!" -- this

You only get one stone by Vladp995 2013-12-17T08:41:00

Good work making an idle game. Not many people in LD gonna have the balls to try that! Plays well (still playing after an hour)

One Shot Showdown by ninjacharlie 2013-12-26T22:51:00

cool entry. Your music choice was awesome! Played quite a few rounds. Are the levels completely random or generated to be winnable every time?

Only One World by j_stirk 2013-12-17T04:13:00

Did you plan/design the gameplay on this or just make it and hope? Seems good either way :D

Uno Terra by Diptoman 2013-12-18T12:25:00

Nice work "not" making a tutorial. Sandbox mode worked well. Funny choice of resolution. Thumbs up!

One Earth, One Defender by Mental Atrophy 2013-12-17T00:32:00

great entry! also remember you made it in FORTY EIGHT HOURS. bloody marvellous!

Medieval Fantasy Island by aayars 2013-12-17T01:01:00

your screenshots look amazing but when I run it, it looks like this:

Sole Survivor by LD_LAN_Party 2013-12-21T05:01:00

Couldn't run on Ubuntu 13.04 due to:

error while loading shared libraries: libGLEW.so.1.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Shooting Atoms For Peace by Denis Chakarov 2014-01-02T11:57:00

Solid little puzzle game, only complaint is that the background pattern made discerning the projectile path a little difficult.

YOGO swat member by severus 2013-12-17T00:11:00

good entry! I like that you kept you scope small and achievable, and the line of sight mechanic is well polished.

My Last Pocket by marccspro 2013-12-20T17:27:00

On Ubuntu 13.04 I get the following error:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no lwjgl in java.library.path


Looks like lwjgl isn't packaged in the .jar?

Process Journey by Lissar 2013-12-17T04:39:00

enjoyable is the right word for it. Thank you :D

The Library *Real Name: Welcome to the Library* by Capitals 2013-12-16T23:42:00

Great for a first LD Jam!

Chambers by person124 2013-12-16T23:30:00

some bugs when going through elevators that made me lose my run. GREAT level design with simple components. :D good work!

Bomb by Nnnnneeeedddd 2013-12-20T17:16:00

Vomited audio errors at me on Ubuntu 13.04.

Only One Refuel by tyty5949 2013-12-17T00:22:00

I also couldn't get the web version to run.

Earth by george_prosser 2013-12-17T00:39:00

friggin HARD! but very polished. Good to see more Lovers in the Ludum Dare.

A Space Game by SerialVelocity 2013-12-16T23:56:00

another opengameart.org user I see. Fun gameplay and the bullet time works well (and is essential for success!).

Top Heavy by 302_Dave 2013-12-22T16:08:00

Didn't run under linux for me, seemed to complain that LWJGL was not linked correctly.

Top Heavy by 302_Dave 2013-12-22T16:09:00

The error: http://pastie.org/8569567

Weird Kingdom by insane66 2013-12-17T01:07:00

I love the death animation on the boss! *no spoilers*

One Job One Shot by BluShine 2013-12-17T10:18:00

Great game, this one is a lot of fun!

One Job One Shot by BluShine 2013-12-17T23:28:00

Played through to completion (not the bonus levels yet), level three stumped me for quite a while, but the rest I could work out in a few attempts.

RoboKnight Must Choose by Mutt 2013-12-17T01:14:00

cool entry! Took me a while to realise the levels were repeating themselves because the powerups are random.

NUCLEAR by backflipppp 2013-12-24T06:08:00

Could you create a linux executable?

G.T.F.O. by Centhra 2013-12-17T04:30:00

Good to see more Lovers in LD :D nice game. Only gripe is putting deadly obstacles just outside of the view port...

Single Shot by Suyo 2013-12-25T17:03:00

Solid entry, but a little too easy, I played for quite some time and was never at risk of losing.

Follow the Sun by incobalt 2013-12-17T00:43:00

love the storybook feel. Maybe next time try using sprites as your intro art is great!

Try to fly by kill0u 2013-12-17T01:58:00

fun. I liked the comments from your "friends"

You Only Get One Shot by oldmanbiles 2013-12-16T23:37:00

sooo dark.. the humor. Nice entry

The one shot by jamesy012 2013-12-17T09:48:00

You used the wrong slash on your linux link.

Drain by hydancer 2013-12-26T11:10:00

Nice game. Wish i could make my simple graphics work so well in Love2d

L1ghter by quill18 2013-12-17T12:53:00

enjoyable, the chess puzzle was a little tedious and I had a CTD after getting 2 keys. thanks.

Immortality by Kane 2013-12-22T15:42:00

Well executed, funny, great use of theme, I really liked this one!

LD30 — Connected Worlds

Aliens and Pigs: Why Not? by lytedev 2014-09-01T18:17:00

Good Times! The time limit was a bit long tho

TransmissionForce by Binary Gambit 2014-09-03T16:18:00

Thanks for all the comments. I would definitely avoid re-sizing the window as it breaks everything completely. I would have disabled that feature but then it doesn't work at all on Android.

Music is from nosoapradio.us. I recommend checking it out. I have no musical skill whatsoever (except with selecting it)

Spacewatch by SleepyStudios 2014-08-26T21:19:00

Not bad, took me a while to figure it out. Very polished but it would be nice if the arrow was more pointy towards the business end!

Hero of Elements by donfabio 2014-09-01T10:27:00

Thanks for showing this at the Frankfurt Independent Game Dev Meetup

Space Pioneers by Vudu 2014-08-28T21:19:00

Crash on Ubuntu 14.04 every time I open the archive :(

HappyGreetings by Tadepex 2014-09-02T18:03:00

Tutorial please!

Dragon Theatre by vipper 2014-09-02T18:00:00

Not bad. The story font is near unreadable on my hi resolution monitor

Salvation by 43iscoding 2014-09-01T18:30:00

Solid Entry. I like that the mechanics are metered out over the first few levels.

Generic Space Adventures by Markus 2014-09-02T18:21:00

Weird. Was this just an experiment to see how long people will play for? I have this feeling you are collecting data ;)

TrainSim 4000 by smbe19 2014-08-28T21:42:00

Enjoyable and Addictive :D

WorldWar of Connectidia by Goutye 2014-09-02T18:40:00

This has a lot of mechanics for a 48 hour compo. WELL DONE! PS-Love2d is wikkidcool

Connected Retro Worlds by yodamaster 2014-09-01T10:26:00

Thanks for showing this at the Frankfurt Independent Game Dev Meetup.

Crossover by Lafolie 2014-09-02T18:06:00

Hilarious! This is a great concept. Your graphics and gameplay are awesome. It would be nice if you could hold the mouse button down to fire. Also falling off is way more dangerous than the bad dudes. Are the levels hand designed?

God Bless My Spaceship by Autonomous 2014-08-28T21:10:00

not bad at all. Love your art. It runs pretty slow on a low end tablet.

Frogging - XNA by gladers 2014-09-01T10:29:00

Thanks for showing this at the Frankfurt Independent Game Dev Meetup

GeoQuest by caranha 2014-09-01T18:08:00

Great game. The level at my desk is WAYYY too hard :D

LD31 — Entire Game on One Screen

Castle Dice by cacciatc 2014-12-11T10:04:00

Nice as a concept. You make the same mistakes as me by not focusing on the user experience :D Single clicks to add dice, a button to skip the rolling, highlighting of items you can buy with your current roll. But I know how these things get pushed back and then not added during a jam. Nice!

Wide Screen Defender by DevWouter 2014-12-10T14:01:00

Love the Concept. Points for using Love2d :D

The Icing on the Cake by Binary Gambit 2014-12-10T12:34:00

Thanks for all the comments. I do wish that I had time to add sound effects. Sorry to hear the subjective scoring didn't work for everyone (probably should have expected that)

Play PC R-9400 by Toestee 2014-12-11T10:13:00

Nice work getting TWO games onto one screen

Shields are down by MarioY19 2014-12-10T11:08:00

Cool concept! I was confused as to when the blocks are "non-collidable" . I wanted to check out your past LD games but your profile is not found :(

Dwindling Fire by PlasterPhantom 2014-12-10T11:00:00

so many hover info panels. Apart from that, GREAT!

Snow Need To Rush by SnoutUp 2014-12-10T14:03:00

Wow, I have dizzyness after just a few minutes. Loads of fun tho. I also made a snowman game

Snamwons Revenge by yodamaster 2014-12-10T11:47:00

The graphics are so awesome! Would give this 5/5 stars for the Mindf**k category.. :D

Spotlights in the Deep by SeriouslyCrunchy 2014-12-10T11:18:00

I like that your monsters each have different AI. Great idea, similar to one of my old LD entries. :D

Frankfurt Ludum Dare Venue - Keeper by gladers 2014-12-10T11:44:00

Noice! I like all the changes you made on the final day. Mikaylas Pizza voice is rather amuzing (and more than a little CREEPY)

Windows Cleaner Simulator by Instant Noodles 2014-12-10T12:00:00

Cleaning a window didnt let me see the people inside, as is depicted in the main screenshot. Is that a bug?

Sugarbound by PixelCrust 2014-12-10T11:36:00

This is just awesome. A little more work on the player movement and it would be perfect

Bunnyix by Damdoshi 2014-12-10T11:53:00

Funny to see all the Windows people complaining they cant play this. Did you all provide a Linux build for YOUR game?
Game was really interesting, nice work coding the engine from scratch. Reminds me of a color Vectrex system :D

Get Bigger! by admix 2014-12-10T11:32:00

Really enjoyed this game. Controls feel nice, and the graphics implimentation makes me jealous of your skill!

Rage Game--Survival by Rowan123 2014-12-10T13:53:00

"raaaaege, i hate this game! Ok, one more try."
^^THIS^^

A Carrot Game by the-arrival 2014-12-10T10:44:00

Enjoyable, the max level pistol was my go-to weapon

SIRTET by stray 2014-12-11T10:09:00

love it

Nebula by UrbanLogicGames 2014-12-10T12:18:00

Wow, with some AI and a little innaccuracy in the scanner this game would be amazing. Love the effects as well.

Window Rogue by Scrapworks 2014-12-10T11:27:00

Loved it! The gibs were awesome. Any tips for peeps just starting out with particles?

LD34 — Two Button Controls / Growing

Huebot Mazerunner by Binary Gambit 2015-12-15T09:12:00

Thanks for playing.. your game was also fantastic! The idea was to confuse the play a little bit so they need to think from a different perspective.

Zen Jen by fluidvolt 2015-12-15T08:38:00

Very nice! Stop trying to be zen and just be zen!

Workshop Panic by Bloodyaugust 2015-12-15T08:42:00

Sadly in the Web version on Linux, and in the Linux download version the sack gets stuck after collecting the first present. On windows it plays nicely.

Flove by SpringCabal 2015-12-15T08:49:00

Very enjoyable, even with my mediocre graphics card
