Labyrinth of Souls by jharler 2019-05-02T03:34:12Z

Run !!

Escape by AXaViaN 2019-05-02T11:11:59Z

I like the graphisms, it reminds me Nidhogg, prince of persia and Chamber of Shaolin on amiga.

Mr Moneybag by managore 2019-05-02T12:27:41Z

Love this rogue like. Like usual in fact, I'm a big fan of your work. Perfectly fit the theme and addictive. Wish the gem could upgrade stuff too ^^

Ad vs People by nusan 2019-05-02T10:11:50Z

Highscore : 14600e :smile: Cool idea, at first I didn't understood that only the last card that killed use his effect (to add more cards). When you know that you will be more careful. Cool interface, like the arrow effect for the drag and drop.

Zugzwang by riv-roy 2019-04-30T03:50:27Z

Loved it! the powers on the side are a really nice touch, and the subjet is on spot because you want to use your own life to attack sometimes, anyway have a good evening!

Coin Bois by Alchemic 2019-04-30T04:37:54Z

controling two cractere at the same time in that king of puzzle game is hard :D but i enjoyed it, wp!

Stranger Coins by grena 2019-04-30T02:55:36Z

I loved it. The first time everything change I was like whaaaaat ? hahaha cool idea, just the audio is a bit annoying after few minutes XD

Monotheizmation by Zeriver 2019-05-03T20:21:17Z

The Game can be downloaded and played :) it's a cute god simulator where blood rains on your crops from time to time, and you hope that people will sacrifice someone to you! :D

Heartaker by lukbebalduke 2019-05-02T13:54:25Z

Really cool game, love the way we can kill 5 ninja at the same time. The mecanic of killing ennemies in his own blood are really fun. Amazing compo, keep up the good work

Soul Surge by Brackeys 2019-05-06T01:57:30Z

Learned a lot from your tuto, thanks @brackeys ! i think i made a game inspired by each of your videos :D one of them is on steam and another one is realising in 3 months. you where a big part of my learning process so thanks a lot.

Artvertising: The Battle of the Dollar Stores! by Mocadium 2019-05-02T10:45:21Z

Man-sized Disposal by kruemelkeksfan 2019-05-02T04:03:44Z

This game needs it's 20 ratings !

Seed. by AVAVT 2019-05-02T21:53:25Z

I looove this concept. The graphisms are really cool and it's challenging. Good job. It's a zen game I want to play to relax myself

Life's a Dish by dxk2294 2019-04-30T02:58:30Z

Sweet! My type of game! trying to figure out how to use the game is part of the game, well played, i got 80% match!

Castle Mania by Roitchie 2019-05-01T14:40:48Z

Just finished your game, cool base idea. I think you can have something really cool with effects on all near cases when you do your spell. It was easy to kill enemies when they are on a corner of my character (top-left for example) and then just move when he move. I can think about cool update to add more spell for example. Anyway good job for your first jam :smile:

Life Loan by Jadw1 2019-04-30T02:38:54Z

I really like the graphisms of the game :)

Dear Substance of Kin by Deconstructeam 2019-05-02T03:35:16Z

the graphics are so good.

Pay the door by Rakowu 2019-05-02T10:54:06Z

Good job man, I really love the idea of falling into another room to continue the level. For 10 hours of work it's really a great game. Keep up the good work

[SHIP-WRE-KT] by webthingee 2019-05-01T16:58:55Z

Making your own graphics is really satifying, i'm a dev who has to do is own graphics and i don't draw, most of the work i just needed to have a good choice of color so i learn what a color palette was and i needed everything to fit together so i learned what a moodboard was and for the rest i basicly needed to have a good taste and it's preatty easy to learn that from others when there doing such amazing works,well played, good day!

Provide by RedHermit 2019-04-30T04:31:10Z

I found balance!

With It Or On It by SaRNEh 2019-04-30T17:13:15Z

Loved the shadow + pixel art theme

One More Drop by ZAX 2019-04-30T02:23:09Z

When I first began to run, I was like hoooooo it's like in risk of rain you will get some permanent bonus. Too bad it was not permanent. But the game is pretty good ;)

Pig Web Tower Defense by Kevin Palani 2019-04-30T02:29:05Z

I like tower defense, and the idea to got currency only by loosing :)

Business Cat and the Literal Loan sharks by EggPlant891 2019-04-30T03:06:42Z

Piggy Butchery by Reality Blind 2019-04-30T04:00:03Z

My friend just got to sleep after we finished the gam jam but he will love your game, he is a fan of the old lemmings games and you find a way to innovate and keep with the subject, well played.

Dungeon of the Blood God by LurkinMcClerkin 2019-04-30T02:37:37Z

Lifelust by MateusBoga 2019-05-02T12:08:33Z

Board Life by Serious07 2019-04-30T03:10:20Z

It reminds me Hand of Fate a bit. The game is cool and I love the graphisms. Good job, maybe roll the dice faster for a next update ;)

Wanted by Stefan Jovanovic 2019-04-30T17:39:36Z

The first guy you shoot could be facing away so you have time to check the correct input to shoot :D

Pixel's Villagers by gamedevkng 2019-05-03T20:04:20Z

Plague Machine by Echo GameWorks 2019-04-30T03:45:24Z

Planting with Pain Donkeys Adventure by Biebras 2019-05-03T20:32:13Z

I write this review as my mage is continuously firing fire balls, lot of fun defending while switching life, nice one.

Life of the Party by Madbarron 2019-04-30T03:25:21Z

7 is my best :D

Lifeless space by PabloTitan 2019-05-02T11:00:29Z

Cool idea, cool effects, and cool explaining tutorial. I understood all the mecanics really fast and make me want to go to the end to see a full level without explanation. Soooo I finished your game, and I will wait for a next level :smile: .

The Poor Rebellion by Adam Clayden 2019-05-01T02:50:28Z

Dabbing peasant out of existence!

Everything is Money! by OgelGames 2019-04-30T02:49:31Z

Cool game man, but why we shoot coin on poor little piggy bank :( ?

The Underworld Underworld by Osspial 2019-04-30T19:35:50Z

Couldn't get out of the room with the shotgun! :D

HackZ Memories by Black Potion 2019-04-30T01:55:40Z

@tinykidtoo Thank you for your feedback. And yeah you have to find by yourself how to make more memories! :D

HackZ Memories by Black Potion 2019-04-30T10:08:09Z

@arimie yes we wanted to do something like that to really show the cool mechanics, but we didn't had time. Thank you for your feedback :smile:

HackZ Memories by Black Potion 2019-04-30T10:17:25Z

@carlsonandpeeters hahaha yeah but I read that if we are in a jam contest we should opt out from the Graphic category

HackZ Memories by Black Potion 2019-04-30T10:17:56Z

@minemes What kind of bugs did you had in the upgrade menu ?

HackZ Memories by Black Potion 2019-04-30T10:18:33Z

@taylomol000 yeah normally there is a cool music and some effect with our face talking. You are playing on which OS ?

HackZ Memories by Black Potion 2019-04-30T10:19:12Z

@alchemic Thank you :smile: We didn't really had time to balance good the whole game

HackZ Memories by Black Potion 2019-04-30T10:20:07Z

@no-grapes-games Thanks, we thought about it during the last few hours. The problem is that it doesn't work on webgl and we are really sad because of thant

HackZ Memories by Black Potion 2019-04-30T10:21:01Z

@akshay-b normally you can hear our face talking about the mechanics of the game to understand it better. And you can put your mouse over memories and upgrade to see what they does

HackZ Memories by Black Potion 2019-04-30T10:26:58Z

Just talked with people on the discord, they say it's ok to fix the bugs but not to do any minor update. So I will quickfix the camera

HackZ Memories by Black Potion 2019-04-30T11:14:29Z

@koemeterion yes I'm trying to figure out why the zoom out with the scroll of the mouse is broken at some points. Thank you for the feedback :)

HackZ Memories by Black Potion 2019-04-30T22:28:10Z

Yes we will @good-enough , it will remove memories or something but not this hard reset, and the esc button that kills the game without warning is not good as well.

HackZ Memories by Black Potion 2019-05-01T14:15:22Z

@doramemo Wow thank you so much for this feedback. You are the only that said he totally finished the game. Congratulations :champagne: 1. We didn't saw this bug before we submit, that shit to understand the power and upgrade. We will fix it as soon as we can. 2. I think you are right the animation and particules effect are laggy. We need to find a solution or to let the player to disabled it. replace the little memories that pop by a text for example. 3. Inflations :joy: hahaha. This bug is really a breaker for the gameplay. Thank you to notice us we didn't saw it 4. Ho yeah thats the worst part when we tried to finish our game after submitting it... I was thinking a system that sell the best memories you got when you try to buy, or a sell all button maybe.

HackZ Memories by Black Potion 2019-05-01T14:16:44Z

Thank you @duzzondrums , it was our first ludum dare and it was a bit trickyto add all the contents we wanted. Glad you noticed it :smile:

HackZ Memories by Black Potion 2019-05-01T14:17:26Z

@lucas-kauff Thats the worst thing that can happened. For me we need to fix the time of the detective during the redalert. He needs at least to scan your Hacker

HackZ Memories by Black Potion 2019-05-01T20:55:05Z

Just a quick update, i'v been working for hours trying to fix the WebGL video bug we had, and i finally did! so i'm currently uploading the windows, mac and linux version with the new version of the game.

For now the webGL version is working and updated to the new version. This new version is just a bug fix so i couldn't change the 1000 clicks at the end, it's not allowed, sorry for this.

Fixed bugs : - currency spawn in shop duplicating currency - detective use the wrong timer for speed acceleration - Zoom is not working - Hover Text showing when nothing to display.

Thx for all your comments and feedback. :v:

HackZ Memories by Black Potion 2019-05-02T21:20:09Z

@taylomol000 cooool, it's bad that it didn't work day one. But we are glad that it worked at last

Hospital Horrors by PseudoBytes 2019-05-01T02:20:59Z

Just spent 20m painting blood everywhere, loved it!

Dont Drop The Bass! by TaqoShaq 2019-05-02T03:43:21Z

Rating 20!

Fateshift by dougLima 2019-05-03T20:14:01Z

Level 27 !

Glass Cannon by Pyoid 2019-05-02T10:34:14Z

Like the concept, almost beat the highscore (16) :smile: A bit hard to evolve the ship multiple time when we have a lot of life because the interface disappear. And not knowing where the ennemies are is hard, they appear and kill you in a seconds. It fits for mobile game, good job I enjoyed play :v:

Lady Death by Maria Eugenia Franco 2019-04-30T04:09:03Z

That lady death can wall jump!

Removed by Cuppycat 2019-05-01T14:24:44Z

Shut up and take my money! by MicroIce 2019-04-30T04:33:04Z

The movement is smooth and the subject is spot on, well played.

Greedy HP by Bouergh 2019-04-30T19:50:04Z

Damn, well played, it's a fun game and congratulation on you webGl build, it can sometime get buggy, we did not successfully built our game on WebGL but i'm not losing hope

Faery Tales by Ryan Wine 2019-05-02T14:03:24Z

A bit hard to understand at first, I was teleported without knowing why, died so fast because I shoot too much... after that I understood I had to shoot less :smile: . didn't tried to mod the game but it's an awesome feature. I found the control a bit harsh (feary is really slow to jump) I think if you upgrade it, the game will be a lot smoother.

Faery Tales by Ryan Wine 2019-05-02T21:42:19Z

yeah too long to get off the ground I think.

HeartsLost by HyperSquid Studios 2019-04-30T02:46:43Z

Hard to survive >< . If you earn only one life per kill but has to shot twice it's a bit complicated...

The Bloody Merchant by Lombax 2019-05-02T03:26:12Z

it was our first Game Jam too, we almost went for a similar idea to yours but we could not produce the graphics. so we went for a hacking game about stealing memories :D you know how it goes.

utsvulten by ditto 2019-04-30T04:26:07Z

I just eated my brain or what ?

Boskov by Elie 2019-05-01T02:55:05Z

creepy, but it's my type of game :D you might enjoy our game too, it's trying to make you feel uneasy, not sure if we succeded.

Break Snake by Dobbermann2 2019-05-02T11:50:07Z

The game idea is good, I played a similar game in this ludum dare with a snake and guillotine. It was more a puzzle game than a score game. The animation and growing snake is good but I found the game not enough dynamic. When I play a snake game, I want my snake to go fast to a direction. Here it's hard to avoid box when you don't have the level. It's even hard to take coin without touching anything, I had to begin my turn way before arriving on the coin. So for me you have a really good base, you can improve by making the game easier, For example not dying when you get out of the level but reappearing on the opposite side ? Or make the level bigger. I got 7 highscore and it was really hard to do better, how much did you get ?

Boil Them by Sbug 2019-04-30T01:05:24Z

Really cool and funny audio XD I was totally in the mood to cook some people. Good job man

Shroom Bois by Torculus 2019-04-30T03:24:54Z

Well played, i played it on my own and it was fun as well

bird food by kyavi 2019-04-30T02:26:31Z

I like the way I gotta cut myself to move on. The feeling of the game remind me a game I had on amiga * - *.

BetYourLife by JabbaScript 2019-05-02T21:45:19Z

Simple concept, but really efficient. Good job, I will love to play something like that with friends during a party for example.

LD51 — Every 10 seconds

Binary Blasterz『ロボット 弾幕』 by Junber 2022-10-04T15:04:43Z

You got me at the first half, and it was an explosion in my head when I got 2 spaceship. Well done my friend well done. It's good job

Gelato Drift by thomz12 2022-10-03T16:37:07Z

Congratulation. I will try it and vote as soon as I can :)

Gelato Drift by thomz12 2022-10-04T08:09:11Z

Feel like a crazy taxi I LOVE IT. Good job ;) You should display the leaderboard directly when we died :D

Graveyard Shift by MattDahEpic 2022-10-04T08:36:48Z

I put seed on the ground and harvest = I had fun :) Great job ;)

Sheeple by Jonathan Holm 2022-10-04T07:35:57Z

I throw sheep to the dark lord. I liked it !!! Too bad you didn't had time to do the end, it's pretty good and the animation is awesome ;)

Hypersomnia Mania by RosyMaple 2022-10-04T07:55:07Z

I love the concept of mini games, looks like wario ware ;) Good job mates

KAIROS, Battle for Seconds by Paul Giovannini 2022-10-04T09:47:49Z

I loved everything. Graphism and animation are good, the principle of getting deity remind me of hades of course :) Good job ;)

Oroboros by Black Potion 2022-10-03T17:03:43Z

Merci beaucoup

Oroboros by Black Potion 2022-10-04T08:10:54Z

Thank you so much. We love it too with island in the sky hahaha.

Oroboros by Black Potion 2022-10-04T08:39:55Z

@pete-thorne oh thank you so much for your review. I noticed how are it is to pick up apple, I think I will put a radius around the mouse to pick stuff and I will make them stackable too hahaha we made wood plank object too but I removed it because we didn't had time to use it on quest. For the SFX we need to do it for attack, walking and maybe a bit of wind at least but not enough time too For the light level it looks like a post-process problem, still investigating these... Thank you

Oroboros by Black Potion 2022-10-04T09:16:03Z

thank you so much @julialalart at first we want to be protected by shadow hahahah so it's not a bad idea at all. And no time for SFX but it is on our todo list for next version of course o//

Oroboros by Black Potion 2022-10-04T18:17:03Z

There is a 48h replay in french on our twitch account if you want to see hahahaha @mantsje

Oroboros by Black Potion 2022-10-07T10:09:28Z

@leorid normally for the introduction you just have to click one time with the mouse left button. I saw a bug if you press another key then you cannot skip anymore ... weird

Oroboros by Black Potion 2022-10-18T14:56:26Z

@doot Thank you so much, indeed it helps a lot :)

The Goose Bureau by Tricky_Fat_Cat 2022-10-04T14:18:34Z

Tech Rider by cavedens 2022-10-04T13:19:28Z

I liked the retro theme good job it looks so good ^^

A Handy Job by 0X_VOID_X0 2022-10-04T14:52:05Z

Sooooooo hard but I loved it, I have trouble IRL to know where is my right and left hands... soooo well it's the same in your game. Good job

infected by Notinatal 2022-10-04T14:46:33Z

Good job I was really into the game. Without watching the video I understood what I had to do but 10 seconds is soooo short hahaha. Great job

infected by Notinatal 2022-10-04T15:21:23Z

yeah I'm sure that without the ten seconds and only the virus it will be perfect game to play on steam ;)

OH! STUPID ENGINEER by ThatzNiko 2022-10-04T10:15:39Z

Such a great game, construction and wave of ennemies I could play all day hahah Good job ;)

iAmNotEdible by ilya096 2022-10-04T07:19:39Z

Hello there, great job for your game. I like the humor of each object and the way it's display around the house. I was fighting various ennemies but I didn't succeed to die >< Anyway I had fun :D good job

Room Again by SofiGnedova 2022-10-04T14:26:54Z

I like how you can resolve puzzle with this 10 seconds back loop. Great job :)

Push It by Pete Thorne 2022-10-04T07:46:04Z

I pushed the button, I follow the button, I pushed the button, I follow the button hahaha. Good job it's fun to see the new way the button move, at the begining 10 seconds is a bit long without doing anything. And I couldn't hear really well the voice maybe some little subtitle :) Good game anyway ;)

Peter OS by Brandsma 2022-10-04T14:25:53Z

Hahahah it's so frustrating, good job :D I love the concept and the art

Sneaky's adventure by Vladimir ins 2022-10-04T07:29:11Z

I didn't succeed to launch the game, I can go to volume and when I press play I cannot do anything and nothing launched :/ do you have a windows build ?

Sneaky's adventure by Vladimir ins 2022-10-04T07:29:35Z

The audio is great though

Sneaky's adventure by Vladimir ins 2022-10-04T08:12:01Z

@vladimir-ins I will do that then :D

Sneaky's adventure by Vladimir ins 2022-10-04T08:14:02Z

I didn't really understand how to finish the game and what the 10 seconds do ? it increase something no ? Tell us more on your page ^^

RunCubungus by williewlchew 2022-10-04T08:03:27Z

I lost myself in the map :( But I love the idea of different dimension with different timer :) Good job ;)

Swipe For Victory by FrostPower 2022-10-04T07:49:40Z

Nice, a bit of trouble with the controls too :) I flew in the air like I don't care hahaha Great job anyway ^^
