LD43 — Sacrifices must be made

The Resistance by Sebastian Lague 2018-12-04T11:05:02Z

Nice to see the guy I'm learning from participating the same event) Very good game design with fun mechanics and levels. Adding a couple more mechanisms to play with and a dozen of levels would make it a full finished game. I loved it already though, great job! Fortold Land of Ohm is something xD

Night's End by glimaleite 2018-12-03T12:51:16Z

For some reason my projectiles didn't work as intended. They just hit the floor immediately after being shot. Highest rates on graphics and audio though!

Night's End by glimaleite 2018-12-03T15:51:46Z

@glimaleite the reload fixed it. Well now it's an overall well made game! xD

The Saver by dunin 2018-12-03T20:21:09Z

The player movement is amazing! Nice level design and atmosphere too so yeah, I liked it a lot. Great work!

Within by jhell 2018-12-03T13:29:47Z

WOW I LOVED THE AUDIO! Nice one! xD

Working Overtime by kbf123 2018-12-03T12:35:21Z

Could not resize the app window so was not able to try

Head Spin Builder - Sacrifice Edition! by meursault 2018-12-03T12:48:03Z

Good job!)

Defuse by Andrew Garcia 2018-12-03T09:31:00Z

What a great game! Good job!

Farewell Dear Cargo by ignaciogamedev 2018-12-04T20:27:10Z

Great game! Had a blast playing it!

Sacrifice my farm!! by xenop 2018-12-03T12:27:22Z

Simple but I cracked a smile when saw the farmers xD Good Job)

Save the little ones by acoto87 2018-12-03T14:42:48Z

Nicely assembled levels and classic screen transitions make me feel happy like a kid) Good job!

Requiem by brklipel 2018-12-06T09:44:28Z

Controls are a bit weird with mouse as it is hard to aim the laser but overall it has a nice feel to it. I liked the graphics too. Great work!

Medic ! by Eryph 2018-12-03T20:57:28Z

Come on I want to play this game already! XD

Bottomless God by Thewerebean 2018-12-04T10:17:08Z

I found it fun and easy to play. Nice job with the meteors graphics!

The Chickening by Ryvencore 2018-12-03T20:54:07Z

What a fun to play game! It runs smoothly and I didn't stuck in the chickens despite not killing more than 5 of them! I first tried it and it feels so gooood! I've got the sense as though I made it through a very difficult and chaotic game although I was not supposed to, so great balance! Well done!

Overpopulation by Centauri 2018-12-03T21:16:03Z

Nicely made game, very enjoyable to play and basically shoots for being almost as atmospheric as Papers Please. Good Job!

The Exchange by caeonosphere 2018-12-03T14:32:13Z

Very unusual game with surprisingly engaging atmosphere. Good work!

On The Verge by Akros 2018-12-03T15:48:25Z

What the hell, the game is so well put together! It gave me creeps and I liked it.

Cult Tycoon by Hunter Ahlquist 2018-12-04T10:37:29Z

There are couple of things I want to talk about. I feel like the main gameplay lacks a goal, at least the sacrifice menu didn't do much for me except for the sound effect, I even restarted the game to check intro tutorial one more time to see what sacrificing does and still could not find out. Some little score counter would have been nice. I don't know why the intro has to be so distracting with switching 4 images a second, you could do better without it. But after all, the gameplay mechanics were clear to me and I enjoyed playing it for a while and so it's a nice little game! Good job!

Shepards Island by Zhorky 2018-12-03T21:07:14Z

I was curious what variations I could get and how to maximize the mutation probability. I just noticed that chance is higher the more variations of sheeps you have atm. At the start I was on the opposite trying to breed the same looking sheeps over and over again. Somewhat fun to play and really interesting, great work!

Noah's mARK II by Arthur Baars 2018-12-03T14:50:18Z

As BinaryLynx I totally approve the engine you are using as it empowered you to create such a wonderful peace of art! High scores and firm handshakes xD

Purify Quest by Almog 2018-12-03T15:30:27Z

Well done! It's obvious how much effort you have put into the game and let me tell you, I personally liked it a lot! PS - I found a little humor in such a dark atmoshere)

SoulAssain by Joker_v 2018-12-03T10:00:10Z

What a good game!!) Loved it and it's art xD

Our first game, Hatty & Tom. by emeffe 2018-12-06T00:16:35Z

Nice art and animations!

Expendibots by pandan 2018-12-03T15:22:14Z

It really reminded me of a game called Swarm if I recall correctly. I was thinking of making something similar as it fits the theme perfectly but changed my mind in the end. It is nice to see this initial swarm idea making into this event with such a beautiful implementation. Good job!

The Gods Are Watching by KaisenTheGreatOne 2018-12-03T16:09:46Z

I would call it a demo rather than a game but nevertheless I spent around 10 minutes trying to figure it out so not bad at all. Good work!

Lost In Space by Sargonius 2018-12-03T20:44:59Z

Wow it is kind of the concept I had at the beggining of creating my game for this LD. Although in the end I find the result projects very distinct. You did a good job! The game is responsive and fun to play)

King's Last Stand by Pukami 2018-12-03T15:15:42Z

I liked this game! It's relaxing atmosphere, simple mechanics and graphics are fitting each other rather well! Good job!

The Astonishing Airscapade of Sir Bittergloom by Yuri Yakovlev 2018-12-04T20:36:04Z

Well made game, I enjoyed playing it and found it kinda fun. Great job!

Love is Sacrifice by Pawel W. 2018-12-03T21:53:34Z

It was funny to play the game for some reason. I really thought it is a story about 2 guys and I am still not sure but hey, graphics are great and atmosphere is fantastic. NavMesh movements are something special too xD Good job!)

Judgement of a Priest by SuperGobo 2018-12-03T20:29:54Z

I liked the atmosphere a lot. Nice pixel art and great music! Gameplay is not totally clear for me but I suppose I chose right sacrifices in response to what I see. FIRST TRY! xD

Alien Escape by carlpilot 2018-12-03T15:38:47Z

Nice little pink game!:) Although I find a little connection to the theme, graphics are nice and crafting mechanic is really sweet. Good work!

Fuite / Escape by Thomas Lacroix 2018-12-03T14:36:22Z

Very well made game. Good scope with such a simple idea makes it so enjoyable to play)

Passage Home by Fnissalot 2018-12-03T09:43:27Z

Tried 4 times but couldn't make it. Still a good little game, otherwise I would not have bothered retrying after the first failure, and the second one, and...)

Typeless by Naihto 2018-12-03T08:49:22Z

Holly Molly it is so well made! I mean, it has no flaws, not that I noticed. Very original spin on the theme, loved it!

Fading Light by BinaryLynx 2018-12-03T03:17:05Z

On release I screwed up the name a bit because of exhaustion xD

Fading Light by BinaryLynx 2018-12-03T09:01:22Z

Good luck with beating the game!

Fading Light by BinaryLynx 2018-12-03T10:09:04Z

@burnedkirby Loved your comment as it gave me laughs) So true! Yeah, I could not polish it in time unfortunately. It is great that you kept the pet fed as it is the source of a visual bug if not treated well as I added him last minute and didn't test xD Difficulty of the game is very random (mostly, once again, because of a single Tag I accidentally put last minute)

Fading Light by BinaryLynx 2018-12-03T15:08:20Z

@xenop Here you go! Thanks for letting me know, I totally forgot to do it.

Fading Light by BinaryLynx 2018-12-03T19:43:01Z

@ale Can i modify the initial post Oo? I was afraid it would not let me make changes or I would not be able to apply for Compo anymore so I just added the regarding comment.

Fading Light by BinaryLynx 2018-12-03T19:58:00Z

@ale @jeroenpx @f4kethis I was waiting before adding more specific instructions but now I feel like it is about the time.

Items (vent/pipe/engines etc.) must contain comparable parts to work. You replace and attach parts with E. Some (3) Items are interacteble for you to press F. They won't respond if they are not working.

Examples: 1) if there is a meteor in front of the ship you must Interact (F) with the steering wheel panel to avoid it. But if steering wheel panel is missing the wheel part, you won't be able to do so and you will crash. 2) If the pipe is leaking (missing the valve) you can take (E) the steering wheel and place it onto the pipe (E again near the pipe with the wheel in hands) to fix it.

Fading Light by BinaryLynx 2018-12-03T21:27:56Z

@zhorky Thanks a lot for your time and feedback! Polish the game could use for sure) I hope you have beaten the game after all (although I highly doubt it as I made it hard as hell)

Fading Light by BinaryLynx 2018-12-04T09:27:14Z

@hempuli You are actually first to find out that radio is working! It's funny that at start of development I called it radio but then I thought that radio is harsh in space so renamed it to BoomBox xD I am really glad that you want to return to the game. Just read my comment below the post with an image, you will find all you need.

Fading Light by BinaryLynx 2018-12-04T14:20:21Z

@gerardb Thanks for figuring my game out! I am glad you liked it :)

Fading Light by BinaryLynx 2018-12-05T15:30:32Z

@joker-v @morg @thmokedfish @hempuli @tomdeal @jhell @ale @burnedkirby @xenop Hey guys! Thanks for playing my game! I would really appreciate you giving it another try as I polished it quite a bit. Basically I made things more clear with visual feedback and you most likely will understand the game better. Thanks a lot!)

LD57 — Depths

Depths Scraper by mr.kvinter 2025-04-07T17:47:00Z

Great game! Cant believe it was made this quickly. Fighting could use some work, but otherwise all around giga-solid

Depth Defying by DangItsPang 2025-04-07T17:49:45Z

Nice one, took a while to figure out

VoidQuest by koalabear 2025-04-07T17:56:36Z

Neat controls, gj

Living Lift by Scrawach 2025-04-07T18:01:58Z

Simple idea, great execution, nice polish! Finished it by killing the monster

D.R.I.L.L .inc by Kaspar Saarekivi 2025-04-07T17:53:14Z

Overall solid controlls. Idk if its a shader or something but trail detail is also very nice

Don't go too deep! by p3tition 2025-04-07T17:51:02Z

Nice arcade with some upgrade mechanics twist

Diving Belle by The Stewarts 2025-04-07T18:11:38Z

Great polished game! Graphics, gameplay and sounds are all solid. The only thing i would change is aiming towards mouse rather than closest fish and I'm not sure if it's an upgrade i didn't get, but piercing multiple fish would be awesome

Coals of the Eternal Cycle by sqqqwer 2025-04-07T17:50:21Z

Giga graphics, lighting was super imersive, GJ
