LD25 — You are the Villain (47)

ECHO CHAMBER by loren 2012-12-22T09:52:00

Wow, this game really has it all. Great graphics, great gameplay, great sound and it even carries a message! But after playing your game i realize i have to give you something to improve on.

One thing i think you could've been done better is to get a more solid art style. I really love the bright colors and chaos that occurs during retribution, flashing words and colorful lines etc. But the praisers, the chamber and the GUI seems a bit out of place. Don't get me wrong, it looks great, but i think you could've been done even better!

You still get a five star in overall and you immediately rise to my top three!

You are the Asteroid! by rainblade studios 2012-12-21T20:01:00

A very nice debut you got here! The controls are slick and it's easy to understand what you're supposed to do. It's a little easy and it would be great with a health bar. Other than that, great job.

Super Villain Goat Hunter by Taffaz 2012-12-21T19:48:00

I can't see any connection to the theme, other than killing innocent goats (Which is quite evil when i think of it). The gameplay is not that interesting and the lack of sound doesn't do it any better. But you still present a clear idea and a clear objective, and you do it well.

The other side by vrld 2012-12-21T17:31:00

The games looks really good and the controls are awesome. But i can't figure out how to play? All my aliens in space invaders die and i win, i kill pac-man and i lose? Amazing that you managed to finish 3 games but i still couldn't get past pac-man, which probably is mostly my fault. Great job!

MEMEX by Cake&Code 2012-12-21T17:16:00

A real piece of art and story telling. I came for the looks but stayed for the conclusion! I can't see the connection to the theme but i still get the feeling that i should. Amazing work!

Carnage by SXPanda 2012-12-21T16:04:00

A really cool game. Few bugs but nothing serious. The most annoying one was that his arm would extend at random times, but as it doesn't affect game play it didn't really matter. I liked that you have different special powers and even a scoreboard! It all proves that it's a well polished and well thought out game! Good job!

Namcap: Reverse Pacman by caranha 2012-12-21T15:43:00

A little hard to control the ghosts, but still very enjoyable. You almost managed to catch the retro feeling but the score numbers and the selection ruins it. Still a really good and well executed idea!

Children : Reverse Slender by HackThePanda 2012-12-21T15:37:00

I like the idea but it lacks gameplay and the sound is just a little to much. I like the fact that you've given the player the ability to jump, even though it's not necessary, i read in the comments that you included it for the immersion and i think that's awesome! Still a fun game that's more about the message than gameplay. Good job!

Victor Grozny by DustyStylus 2012-12-21T15:29:00

I really cool concept but unfortunately i couldn't get the hang of it. I miss some clear instructions. But still looks great and really stands out. Good job!

Battle Goats: The Card Game by Pent 2012-12-21T15:20:00

Feels like a game of luck, would be great with more variety. With more time i think this game could turn into something great! But for 48 hours it's a solid game. Good job!

ARM: Alien Research Mission by Hume 2012-12-21T15:10:00

I really liked the controls, challenging yet fun! Great job.

Demons in Dungeons by blay09 2012-12-21T15:00:00

Can't get past the first level, but the game both looks good and feels good. And it also seems like a very big game for 48 hours, very good job!

Lack of Texture Adventure by Dioiminik 2012-12-21T14:53:00

A very hard but fun game. Interesting level design. The enemies with lasers feels over powered, but it sure do make things more interesting. Good job!

Space Liberators by ceronman 2012-12-21T14:45:00

A very fun little game, a bit hard to understand at first but you quickly get the hand of it. Good job!

Monologuer by Devenger 2012-12-21T12:37:00

A wonderful concept, a little hard to understand at the beginning. But you quickly get a hang of it. Good job!

Killer Crusade by Loginaut 2012-12-21T12:24:00

Couldn't open it :( I'm on a Mac.

Black Sheep by Spouwny 2012-12-21T12:20:00

Great controls, really satisfying. You really felt like the bad guy!

Dirty Robbing Hood by peterfeatherstone 2012-12-21T12:06:00

I like the look and the main idea. One problem though is that it's really hard to find your way back to the den, other then that, great job!

The Launch by DTG 2012-12-21T11:59:00

Wow, i really liked this game and the idea of delaying the hero so you can launch a missile is genius! Well done! Damsel in distress is a little over powered though, i just spammed scream and the hero just stood there. But i really liked it and hope that you'll put down more time and make it even more awesome!

Regnant by phaze0 2012-12-21T11:49:00

A little hard to understand, but the idea shines through and i think it has potential.

Prison Escape by Tyren 2012-12-20T22:14:00

Unfortunately i couldn't play it as i'm on a mac. But i watched the walkthrough and it looks like an interesting idea with solid core mechanics that, with a little work, could turn out as to be an awesome game! Great work!

Blob Revolution by kill0u 2012-12-20T22:05:00

I couldn't figure out how to stick to walls, but i still see a well though out platformer that could go far if given more then 48 hours! Looks great!

Frankenstein Complex by Beerman 2012-12-20T21:59:00

I guess i enjoyed this game as i ended up playing it for almost half an hour! Would've been great with some challenge to it, in the end you only really wait for you monsters to finish. Other then that, a really neat concept with a lot of potential!

Minions by ripter 2012-12-20T21:29:00

This game has a very ambitious feel to it and is very enjoy able. Got to a part where i needed two ghasts but i only had one, searched everywhere but couldn't find one. I think it has a lot of potential!

Keep our Dungeons EVIL by hadesfury 2012-12-18T17:37:00

Looks great and feel great. It got a high quality feel and it really sticks out. Great job!

Tetrominoes Butcher by dacap 2012-12-18T10:20:00

This is an awesome Tetris "copy". Looks great, the gameplay is fun and interesting. Well done!

Dig-Dug Dungeon by bigbadwofl 2012-12-18T10:09:00

A wonderful little game! With a clear goal, you want to keep going and you are very satisfied when you succeed! unfortunately my game froze when i was about to kill my first enemy, but still a great game!

A small village by EdoMiyamoto 2012-12-17T18:54:00

A fun game! When you think it's all over you are presented with a new quest! Good job.

Goblin Fortress by AtkinsSJ 2012-12-17T18:45:00

A game with a lot of potential. But without a real goal it all seems pointless. I really love the sounds though, nom nom nom!

Alphanauts by dom2d 2012-12-17T18:35:00

Wow, the concept is amazing and very clever! The graphics are great and the music isn't that bad. A very great game for the jam!

Villain by Mathias Olsson 2012-12-17T18:30:00

That sound when you jump is the best sound. Ever. You get a five star audio for that!

DONUT HEIST: Nom in 60 Seconds by jcvsmc 2012-12-17T18:14:00

A very cute and fun game! The music is a bit to "staby" and the sound when you pick up the donuts gets annoying after a while and I cant figure out how to exit :/

But i still liked the game and it's actually one of my favorite games so far!

Evil Rover by tumoxep 2012-12-17T18:06:00

I love the idea and the art style is so cool! A little short though but still cracked me up!

3radicat3 by nihilocrat 2012-12-17T18:04:00

A fun idea and great work for only a few hours! I like the split misslie mechanic but unfortunately i discovered it when i had already won!

I will always love you... do I? by poga 2012-12-17T17:59:00

I love the intro scene haha! I like the idea behind it but can't figure out the connection to the theme.

THE PRINCESS IS MINE by emveyh 2012-12-17T17:55:00

I really like the art style, i get the feeling i'm looking through a surveillance camera. The pathfinding isn't that great, one of my minions just ran away and ultimately cost me the game! D:

Still a great game and a neat concept!

Fearless by lekochen 2012-12-17T17:48:00

I like the idea, but i don't get the close your eyes thing, does it just make you invincible? But overall a neat little game that really suits this "contest" perfect!

You Are The Ghost Beta by boxerbomb 2012-12-17T17:42:00

A nice try. It seems a little un polished but the idea still shines through. Love the look on the ghost though!

Caluminator by therayman94 2012-12-17T17:36:00

Great idea, loved the clubbing seal part, true evil! A little buggy though, once i was floating in the air and taking tons of damage. But over all a fun and enjoyable game.

O TUTT'I CAVI LESI by Capro 2012-12-17T17:31:00

I love the art style! Couldn't figure out what to do and the audio wasn't that great, but the art style! Genius!

Centipede 2013 by robashton 2012-12-17T17:22:00

Couldn't load for some reason, got stuck at 75 %.

Cow Stealer by ParaPup 2012-12-17T17:21:00

Impressive for a first game! Keep it up!

Minion's Defense by Scott McBee 2012-12-17T17:10:00

I really liked to look of the game and to objective of the game is clear! The knight has a ton of health though! Can't see a connection to the theme other than that knights some times are good? Other than that, good job!

A Villain's Demise by monomanio 2012-12-17T10:17:00

Looks frikin' awesome. Couldn't play much though. Lagged so much it was unplayable. But i'll be back!

The Twist by amassingham 2012-12-17T10:13:00

You can't not like this game! Hilarious!

Makarun by timtipgames 2012-12-17T09:17:00

A really fun game! Didn't get to finish it but i'll replay it when i have the time! One thing that bugged me is that it had some parts where you had to wait until someone looked away in order to continue, which really broke the otherwise excellent flow! But overall a really neat game and i love the representation of the guards vision!

Copyright Criminal by BNeutral 2012-12-17T08:40:00

I think you've earned a five star in innovation! A really interesting and funny game, a bit hard in the beginning when i didn't know that the police wouldn't shot if you didn't upload. A fun game!

LD24 — Evolution (9)

The Phoenix Rising by Brassawiking 2012-08-27T19:48:00

Really enjoyed the graphics, sadly i couldn't get past the part where you hide behind the car, i just keep running and hiding behind cars. But up to that point the game felt very ambitious and i'll have to try to play through it later!

Boxy the Boxcat in Evolution Escapades by matthias_zarzecki 2012-08-27T19:23:00

Daht mighty laser vision, nuff' said! Loved it, great job for a 48 hour compo!

EVOL by Dark Acre Jack 2012-08-27T19:15:00

I found it quite hard to understand what to do and the weird walking were bugging me, other then that, a very interesting game :)

Human Evolution by emveyh 2012-08-27T19:08:00

I really liked the fact that there's a visual feedback of the evolution, makes you want to find out how he looks like at the end! Good job!

Panspermia by camdensegal 2012-08-27T18:55:00

I found this game very entertaining! I really liked the gameplay and the overall feel of the game, but the meteors could be a little bit faster :)

The Sky in the Room by Porpentine 2012-08-27T14:01:00

Not my kind of game, but i'm still very impressed that you managed to make it in just 2 days! Everything is well written and it feels very professional.

Threevolution by dredlockz 2012-08-27T10:41:00

I really like the graphics, 5/5!

Nom's Evolvathlon by bvanschooten 2012-08-27T10:20:00

I like the overall idea and i really like the game! I didn't get through the first level though. I took breath instead of jump that made it impossible.

Cellception by DiG 2012-08-27T10:09:00

a fun and intresting concept, i get some lag spikes at the beginning though. But overall, a good game!

LD23 — Tiny World (18)

The Last Colony by Wyzfen 2012-05-10T16:00:00

A fun idea that looks good and play well!

Pow! Pow! Pow! by Cake&Code 2012-05-03T07:19:00

Cool gameplay, a little hard to use the "growing stuff" to jump higher sometimes. But what really made the experience great was the art. Well done!

Hamster Bowling by tfendall 2012-05-03T07:09:00

Awesome! A really original idea, fun and simple gameplay, bravo!

Supercell by Nick Cash 2012-05-01T16:51:00

A very good looking game, and i really enjoyed the audio!

Genesis by TyrusPeace 2012-04-30T10:13:00

The game looked great and i really liked the sounds! But it was quite hard to aim, but still a great game!

Pale Blue Dot by KevinWorkman 2012-04-30T10:08:00

I really like the concept of this game! But i did end up trying to avoid everything because the sound at collision made it hard to hear Sagan! ;)

Peppyland by spooks 2012-04-30T10:02:00

Im a huge fan of platformers and i must say i enjoyed playing this one! Quite challenging and when the old man in the end that he could do it better it really made me want to play more!

Shorted Out by HybridMind 2012-04-30T09:57:00

A really laid back and simple game, love it! A lot of the games submited is hard to understand. But this game is pretty straight forward while still offering fun gameplay! Well done.

Our Tiny World by hamburger 2012-04-30T09:53:00

A really different game! I really enjoyed it even though i couldn't quite understand the mechanics.

Epic Scale Warfare by devwil 2012-04-30T09:47:00

I think i understand the gameplay but after the tutorial it gets quite hard. I zoom in to a planet and see the room, nothing more. I can hear gun shoots and i guess it's supposed to be a battle in there but i can't see it. I'm on safari.

Home is where the robots are. by greg20man 2012-04-30T09:40:00

Didn't work for me, im on mac.

Tiny World of Wonders - FaBrito (@fabritobricio) by FaBrito 2012-04-30T09:35:00

I really liked the concept of finding all the statues. I wish the challenges were as good as the stone henge puzzle was. Other then that. Great job!

The Tiny Gryphalope by bytegrove 2012-04-30T09:24:00

Nice gameplay and amazing graphics, and great audio as well! A little hard to aim and the enemies where very hard to spot. But very impressive for a 48 hour work!

Pieces by john_conder9 2012-04-30T09:16:00

Quite impressive work for jut 72 hours. Audio got quite annoying after awhile and the camera follow could be better. But overall a good game!

Stranded by The Evil Cult 2012-04-30T09:07:00

A very fun game even though it's quite easy. Not that much content but it looks like you've concentrated on making the game look good, which i can say it does. I would really like to see a post jam version with some epic boss fights! At one point in the game i had a problem shooting while facing down, but it immediately fixed it self!

Great game!

Intergalactic Curling League by Steve Cochrane 2012-04-30T08:53:00

I really enjoyed it! The music worked well with the overall theme and the graphics looked great. It was a little hard to push the other planets though.

Good job!

Kumiho by Christina Antoinette Neofotistou 2012-04-26T08:43:00

Best game so far! Really loved the graphics and music!

Minisk, You Will by Miltage 2012-04-24T20:04:00

A very simple and entertaining game! The game difficulty scales rather slow but after a while it gets quite intense. I really like the audio on the sucky-thingies, it really makes you panic. Well done!
