LD27 — 10 Seconds

BURN_TIME by nihilocrat 2013-08-26T16:40:00

Very good and nice-lookng game!

Hungry Dragon by skyr 2013-08-26T16:50:00

Very nice and minimalistic game)

Cloksion by DavidBittner 2013-08-26T16:56:00

Nice game but has some difficulties with control

Burger Hunter by euvl 2013-08-26T17:00:00

It would be great to see linux version of this.

LD28 — You Only Get One

Brave Boy Punches Enemies by CAT_IN_THE_DARK_WOOD 2014-01-03T17:37:00

@eskivor. It can be a little bug in javascript library. I suppose that you have touch screen also. Becouse try to select girl by touching them instead of mouse-cleacking.

LD29 — Beneath the Surface

Beneath the Surface by Jojo 2014-04-28T14:33:00

It's too randomly. Has no any balance.

Operation: Delve by xgeovanni 2014-04-28T15:03:00

Character does not follows cursor. Just letting you know

Dwarven Kingdoms by kristof 2014-04-28T14:47:00

Need linux version!

Elementities by Helco 2014-04-28T14:07:00

Nice text game. But i found some bug. AI can select for battle already killed enemies. At this moment enemy disappears(because it's dead?) but it shoots

Heavy Man by timtipgames 2014-04-28T16:01:00

It was really funny! Nice game play / sounds!

Oligarch wars by enepomnyaschih 2014-04-28T12:45:00

Very nice game. Like snake + miner + tower defence.

Insane Grandpa by jahlgren 2014-04-28T16:35:00

GREAT graphics and animation!But too hard in 666))

Insane Grandpa by jahlgren 2014-04-28T17:21:00

It was hard, but i won! It's amazing! Cool story, bro

Kappa cat by cinnamonmelonpig 2014-04-28T14:57:00

Good runner\scroller, nice graphics and random-generated level. I love powerup effect!

Symphony of Life by Bernhard 2014-04-28T15:34:00

It was hard to understand what to do, but I did it and the game is amazimg! Love sound generation, gameplay and idea

Whale Princess Rescue Expedition by zinfandel 2014-04-28T14:36:00

Cool game in all meanings )). Nice graphics too.

Upside Down by Markus Brand 2014-04-28T15:39:00

It's too hard. I could not control jumps normal. Something wrong with render - image not solid(twitchs). Nice music :)

Drill Bill by mactinite 2014-04-28T15:26:00

Is it any chance to win in this game?

Beneath the Surface, Drillsnake by ioboi 2014-04-28T15:24:00

Nice idea. But not very intuitive controls(change drill direction). Good job! Two drills it's very hard!!!

Beneath The Darkness by Nichii 2014-04-28T16:02:00

Colorful arts and a lot of levels make game intresting. But can you fix hit areas of enities. Becouse colliding with nothing annoying.

Pug vs. Nemo by Andrey 2014-04-28T17:33:00

It's extremely easy! Nice graphics

The Creature Beneath by Otrora Games 2014-04-28T15:07:00

Ohh, so wonderful game. Art is so fairy. Defenetly, I like this game ^_^.

SkinDeep by Kitatus_Studios 2014-04-28T14:56:00

Nice intro. But something wrong with collision detection and physics

CavEscape by thomz12 2014-04-28T14:39:00

Nice graphics and exciting gameplay!

60 Seconds and a Wake Up by CayoDaves 2014-04-28T15:10:00

Very nice idea, simple and attractive gameplay

Miner Fish by CheeseyBob 2014-04-28T15:52:00

Nice idea. On Linux works fine. Pleasant graphics

Beneath by nicso 2014-04-28T15:12:00

Nice game.

Metal Meter Madness by mrspeaker 2014-04-28T15:01:00

Funny game. Once main hero appeared between two girls but can move - luky choise :D.

LD30 — Connected Worlds

Twin Worlds by AlexFili 2014-08-27T16:02:00

I can't understand what some item means, focus on graphics can make this game much more nice.

Biotope by egos 2014-08-27T17:18:00

Take a minute to understand main idea and realize how to produce gems. Cool game.

Satellite; by dylanigan 2014-08-27T17:37:00

Like the intro! On my linux machine mouse speed is extremely fast, can't control game well. Maybe, fault on Unity side.

Shared Mass by mephisto 2014-08-27T16:48:00

Very smart game, nice graphics! BTW I caught some exception somewhere in music, i don't know really
http://pastebin.com/vYD87SNr

A Cold Night by geoisgame 2014-08-28T16:21:00

Wow, you are ultrahardcore coder(s) & artist(s) making isometric RTS during 72 hours! Has some problems in rendering order, still good-looking game.

A Bridge Between Worlds by MoArtis 2014-08-27T13:13:00

Quite original idea. IMHO one pixel per day is not enough to have fun, maybe you should give people more freedom to act.

TrainSim 4000 by smbe19 2014-08-27T15:35:00

Like your transport simulator. Very simple graphics & music, quite enoqyable gameplay

Invasion by Ogniok 2014-08-28T15:40:00

nice graphics, but this game runs quite slow on my machine. Love the multiplayer feature!

Intergalactic Sysadmin Adventure by zak_dk 2014-08-26T15:15:00

So cool art and idea of making crossover cabel. Lol :D. Finally, I like this entry.

The Guy Who Lost His Arms by Quetzakol 2014-08-27T16:27:00

Nice concept, not bad realization.

The Connection by jas7229 2014-08-27T16:18:00

Beautiful music, petty nice graphics, good concept and idea! I like this game, 5 out of 5!

Lucy's Journey by ajopart 2014-08-27T13:25:00

It's quite hard to see platforms when they are in "other dimension", maybe my screen is the reason. Still pretty hard and enjoyable entry.

Shared Destiny by Pesty 2014-08-28T16:08:00

Soooo great level deign! Very good entry!

Hipster Fenrir by HipsterFenrir 2014-08-27T17:23:00

Pretty nice graphics!

Icecream and World Domination by KigurumiDevs 2014-08-28T16:44:00

Nice and solid strategy game. Like arts, music, interpretation of idea and gameplay, of course.

Orbital Expansion by Eniimal 2014-08-27T15:01:00

Quite addictive game, nice idea, but.. Ads? It's not suitable on LD, I guess.

LD31 — Entire Game on One Screen

Go farm! by vidarn 2014-12-10T09:58:00

very addictive game! Nice graphics, controls are a bit delayed. Can't understand purpose of sand =)

Screen of Infinite Detail by Snicklodocus 2014-12-10T09:11:00

Good entry, like the concept and fine-tuned controls. I expected some recursive gameplay with more and more detailed level, but still very good idea.

Dolly by Jessica Hayley 2014-12-09T12:03:00

Very interesting gameplay, it's cool when you see your own corpses, but uncool when you begin to stuck in them, and level becomes too difflicult because of your previous mistakes.
And in my opinion that's not a gameplay element. You should have thought about it.

Overserious Snowball Fight by shcromlet 2014-12-10T09:18:00

I successfully defeated against first wave, but things are going too fast then. Als I noticed some lags after the first vawe, but who cares that, cos I was already dead =)

LD32 — An Unconventional Weapon

LIMB-O by Grouflon 2015-04-21T13:13:00

Funny and sad game. It's very solid game, with great graphics. Nice work!

Utensil Attack by TheBurningHat 2015-04-25T14:13:00

Yeah, I go pretty far until accidentally switched window =) When I returned, I was already dead. Classic idea and nice implementation =)

Dreamfisher by Tanser 2015-04-21T12:47:00

Oh, art is amazing. Nice work!

Pencil Hero by Neonian 2015-04-25T13:36:00

Love the jump animation. Pretty challenging fight red guys when they spinning constantly and dodge flying pencils at the same time =)

Sophistication Annihilation by Newt_ 2015-04-25T13:48:00

Wow, that's was super-challenging! Really unexpected gameplay =) Also like easter egg on funerals =) Nice dark humor. But with more and more tries i want faster way to replay. Like spacebar or something.

Sophistication Annihilation by Newt_ 2015-04-25T13:51:00

Sorry, messed up browser tabs =)

SUPER BRO THROW by SinclairStrange 2015-04-25T13:52:00

Wow, that's was super-challenging! Really unexpected gameplay =) Also like easter egg on funerals =) Nice dark humor. But with more and more tries i want faster way to replay. Like spacebar or something.

LD33 — You are the Monster

Possessive by PeculiarCarrot 2015-08-26T17:43:00

Really love AI in this game. Guis who had seen that you posessed someone, will attack him, but others are don't really know that guy was really posessed. Maybe too hard to play for me, but when guards generating from nowhere, it was a bit frustrating for me.

Fiskarens fiende by WillysJerry 2015-08-26T18:18:00

Nice game! It allows you to work on tactics. but in my opinion, difficulty increases too fast

I am Become Death by mfagerlund 2015-08-25T16:31:00

Nice game, took some time to understand mechanics, but very interesting later. I thought I killed all the greenies, but I didn't seen screen with "you win" or something. Did I miss someone?

Fade by CreamyBacon1 2015-08-26T17:57:00

Original mechanics, really hard to play, reminds me VVVVVV or something. Good entry!

Dark Howl by Kakureta 2015-08-25T17:54:00

Quite challenging platformer, close to theme. Cool music, nice and atmospheric art. I like parallax effect on background.

Policia para quem precisa by Markof 2015-08-26T17:49:00

Car control pretends to be "realistic". This adds a lot more fun =) Hope this game were english (it's not my native too, but it would be great to understand signs I click on)

Taxman by colinn 2015-08-25T18:00:00

doesn't Work on linux, unfortunately (says "could not find data folder" or something i nconsole)

Professor Chaos's "Mean Sardine Machine" by Mach60KAS 2015-08-25T18:05:00

Hahaha, you are such a monster making this "game"! =) Hilarious entry =)

LD34 — Two Button Controls / Growing

Clan Recruiting Simulator by LeetLeaf 2015-12-16T09:21:00

Cant see "Health" and "Followers" info, probably because I'm playing under linux in Wine. Cool entry, love post-processing effects (some noise etc). Cool and original connection with theme.

Elevator Ellie by issa 2015-12-15T14:08:00

Cute graphics, pretty simple and nive entry. Needs some variations to be less repetitive.

In the beginning by Liam :D 2015-12-16T07:01:00

Very interesting concept, but still miss something to turn into interesting game.

Attack In The Mushroom Kingdom by Monochrome Bears 2015-12-15T17:50:00

Nice job, guys! Great art and atmosphere! Like to watch how mushroom kingdom grows!

They Call It Lucy by kiv 2015-12-15T17:48:00

That's the most strange thing I've ever played. Fantastic entry, awesome art and sound, 100% theme hit. I think I've found some kind of pattern, but maybe it's just illusion

sprout by lonewookie 2015-12-15T15:14:00

Nice game, simple gameplay. Maybe it would be easier to control plant using keyboard instead of mouse. Also, game need some balancing as it becomes too hard really quickly.

Sad Submission by Loneshark 2015-12-15T18:10:00

Good music and graphics. Can't figure out what to do after I grab weapon and see man in Santa costume. When I kill him, game just restarts. Also, when I dive into well, game restarts too. Can't see any connection with theme

Grow Pandora by Shivur 2015-12-16T07:32:00

Nice Tower-defence entry. Faced with some exceptions during playtime (http://pastebin.com/4AZ16zkr)

Happy Little Flower by Reccy 2015-12-15T17:21:00

Linuxversion refuses to launch, although it works fine nuder Wine. I just came through growing sequence without pressing red button and it was kinda boring =) Maybe the reason is I'm too obedient for such kind of games :D

Battle Rose by goodbadokay 2015-12-17T18:00:00

Hello from Omsk Ludum Dare dudes.

Grunnist by Alpenter 2015-12-15T14:21:00

It's pretty fun. I like well-thought tile presets. It makes level less random, but more interesting. Particle effects and sound is OK to. It's really hard to pay attention to obstacles and enemies at the same time, but I walked pretty far by holding Right key and pressing Up time to time.

Horde (Growing) by Kushulain 2015-12-15T16:05:00

Wow, I totally impressed! This game is pretty addictive! It has simple control, large world to explore and strategic elements. Maybe it needs some tuning, or maybe I am bad at this, but it is hard to control your tribe when it becomes large.

Yggshroom by Ghen 2015-12-16T12:13:00

Very good entry, has something common in concept with our game indeed! Love mechanics and art!

Feed The Baby by treslapin 2015-12-16T12:18:00

Hilarious game, I like art style and connection with theme!

Red Concert by tantumgames 2015-12-17T17:44:00

Congrats comrade, really good entry. And kalinka-malinka at the end make my evening, thank a lot.
PS: From Siberia with love.

Eskort mission by StitchesMagoo 2015-12-16T09:01:00

Okay, it's really fun and solid game, awesome graphics and great idea. It needs some tuning to become playable. You have too little lives to play it as action game, but your enemies can shoot out of screen bounds which makes it impossible to play as stealth game. Can't see connection with theme. But 5 out of 5 overall, good job!

Friendly Fire by Osaft 2015-12-15T17:34:00

Ha-ha, so "friendly"! You should make version of this game where player should rotate camera to right angle and then blow into microphone to spread fire! :D Also, nice graphics.

Weight Control by ChiPassGames 2015-12-15T15:47:00

The concept of eating, breaking walls, jumping and loosing weight sounds like something brilliant and promising, I expected good and interesting mechanics. But this game is too simple for my taste. It's still OK, but I expected something more complex =)

Chompatron Saves The World by Tim Ruswick 2015-12-16T08:50:00

Fun game but becomes repetitive fast. Can't see connection with theme.

Noise Runner by amYk777 2015-12-16T09:05:00

This game requires more glithces! Too easy to play, but funny though.

Don't Let Your Cat Starve by TeamQuiet 2015-12-15T18:24:00

This game is pretty simple on first look. But it's really hard to keep harmony in this world of cats, cows and grass. I handled it building and removing a wall between cats and cows time to time. Unfortunately, on Linux under Wine game sometimes behaves unstable.

LD35 — Shapeshift

neon:morph 2000 by JonathanG 2016-04-30T19:05:00

Rolling control is pretty OK. Nice game, I spent couple of minutes waiting for some shape-shifting gameplay to play, but game starts to be really hard before you have chance to aquaitance with shape-shifting mechanics. Probably specially designed tutorial level will solve this.

doppel trouble by blob 2016-04-24T07:53:00

Pretty solid game, like the graphics and mood, good stealth mechanics too.

Speigas by mitkus 2016-04-24T08:55:00

Wow, really nice strategy game! Good take on theme too. As for me, difference in cell altitude should affect gameplay more (e.g. if you climb on high cell you can shoot farther or something like that)

Shape Research Lab by SaintHeiser 2016-04-30T15:42:00

Wow, that is pretty solid game wih awesome art! Good connection with theme too. As for me, it's hard to play, probably because of controls. Traditional WASD scheme would work better in this game, IMO.

ShapeDriller Company by psychomonster 2016-04-30T16:12:00

Wow, that's really nice and challenging game! I like mechanics. At start changing form by arrows seems to be bad idea, but hints on objects (animation showing correct arrow for this object) makes this a lot easier and funny.

Transformagician by HuvaaKoodia 2016-04-30T18:55:00

That is really solid cool game. Like visual style of game and atmosphere it creates.

Mountain by guoboism 2016-04-23T09:27:00

Very atmospheric entry! A bit short though. Quite unusual concept, thank you, really enjoyed playing this!

ObamaCore by CluelessGames 2016-04-23T09:46:00

Wow, THAT was unexpected! Really funny entry, 10/10!

Lumiania by Yword 2016-04-25T16:10:00

So nice game. Art, audio and gameplay are excellent.
But controls are quite wired. May as well it's good enough for gamepad.

Terrain Shifter by AshkoreDracson 2016-04-24T07:24:00

Wow, that's pretty challenging! Fresh idea IMO and really nice take on theme! Thank you for native linux build too. For some reason I have my in-game cursor shifted from my mouse pointer to about 50px vertically, but that's minor issue.

SqueezeMeIn by Zerkruemler 2016-04-23T10:03:00

Interesting mechanics. First I tried to reach the goal, then I started just move pixels around like in some zen sandbox-like game. Pretty entertaining.

Za bochok by CAT_IN_THE_DARK_WOOD 2016-04-23T09:38:00

@marmpa, you can try this again, I'm online now and ready to play!

Mountain Fold by PamNawi 2016-04-24T08:33:00

Runned up to the end of background =) Simple and nice game, thank you, really like this graphics.

SHIELD Low by crazya 2016-04-30T19:15:00

Nice take on "bullet hell" genre! I see connection with one of theme candidates for LD35, something like "your health is your weapon" or something. Good game overall, nice graphics.

Pinata Mania by funisfun8 2016-04-23T15:25:00

Move speed seems slow. It would be nice to see more complicated level design and some improvemens of game mechanics, e.g. more candy you collect => more destructive you will be after transformation.

OBfu by zowesiouff 2016-04-24T07:01:00

I like redirection to "Unresolved problems" after all! Great game though conceps of different rules on different levels seems a bit.. Misleading? Overall good entry and nice take on theme.

Rocketmorph by ermrk 2016-04-23T09:31:00

Simple but addictive concept, nice music!

Shifters by Reis Mahnic 2016-04-24T08:28:00

Interesting story,thank you!

The polyman by marmpa 2016-04-23T09:55:00

Took some time to understand how to beat first obstacle (climb walls). Human form should have its own advantages (e.g. climb stairs or something)

Not be eaten by iplusplusteam 2016-04-24T16:18:00

Nice game dudes. I like the concept.
Hello from Omsk Ludum Dare.

shapescalation by ploerre 2016-04-23T10:13:00

Please check archive with Linux bulid. It fails to open. Still I was able to play Windows version. Pretty good entry, I like how puzzle is combined with action. Music style is interesting too.

Mimic by Chaserbrown 2016-04-26T03:24:00

Linux version works well. That is really nice take on theme, and graphics is pretty cool. Some flappy-eel gameplay is OK to, but a bit hard in my taste. Good entry overall, thank you!

Ultra Space Sim 2k16 by telmore 2016-04-26T03:17:00

Really nice idea of constructing your ship! And really nice graphics too. Can't wait to see complete post-compo version!

We Don't Know How to Approach You by Drusilla 2016-04-26T03:35:00

[offtopic] Such unreadable color scheme on downloads page [/offtopic]
Linux version seems not to work, may be because of lack of resources. But windows one works fine. I like the mechanics of choosing different forms and words before reveal yourself to people and see their reaction. Nice and simple idea, perfectly fits for theme.

Tito's Revenge by brinkhousegames 2016-04-24T07:11:00

WOW, i really like this entry! Can't see strong connection with theme though. But music, graphics and mood are awesome! Thank you.

Logan's Quest by Joshsimard 2016-04-23T09:19:00

Good controls and level design. Great that you've done two different levels! Music is a bit repetitive though. Thanks for game, really enjoyed it!

Atomicollider by seizeTheDia 2016-04-24T09:33:00

Like these motion effects and graphics! Very nice game!

Extanation by Fake Unicorn 2016-04-24T07:15:00

Graphic is fantastic! Looks like comics book or somepthing. Can't see strong connection with theme, it's not shape shifting, it's more like soul-taking! =) But still good entry overall.

Shapedrifter by LRP 2016-04-30T15:09:00

Please, fix windows and linux download links. They all redirect to OS X build

Good boy, Bad boy by zateamplay 2016-04-30T15:18:00

I've understood the mechanics and it's pretty nice. Still game needs a lot of polishing, like textures of good\bad guys at least =) Nice design of level and textures though. Can't see strict connection to the theme.

Wispers Of The Afterlife by TeamWisper 2016-04-23T09:37:00

Interesting idea and good sound!
