LD39 — Running out of Power

Planet Nanadoo: Quest for the Powered Fruit by MrTroy 2017-08-04T02:48:47Z

Great game! The art style and music set a nice mood for the game. The one difficulty I had is I found z an awkward key to use to fire; space bar might have been easier. All in all was a lot of fun to play.

King of Mithril by wan 2017-08-01T03:07:54Z

Absolutely gorgeous game! Felt like the start to a great indie game. One bug I ran into, the "a" key didn't work for me (on windows 10). But only cowards run backwards anyways :) The arrow keys worked for me though.

Outside by gelisam 2017-08-05T19:32:04Z

I enjoyed the puzzle and the monologue was great and also explained the game well. I took me a few tries before I understood how to solve it, but that's the point of puzzles :) Thanks for making this!

FIZZLE by djfariel 2017-08-01T04:03:20Z

Well polished game; was a blast to play!

The Liberation of Liberatia by Somnium 2017-08-01T02:56:51Z

Great game and clever take on the theme! My one suggestion would be to make the important text (success/fail and chance to succeed) bold or colored to stand out.

Keep your sanity by Lorthal 2017-08-04T03:05:10Z

Game was a blast! Warning: Spoiler Alert. I loved the part where I was running endlessly down a tunnel until I turned back; very well done!

Plugging Away by AfroAnt 2017-08-08T03:14:57Z

That was an absolute blast to play. Great idea and well executed. It felt like the right amount of difficulty and I finally beat it after a couple of tries.

Great game that was fun to play. If there was more time it would have been helpful to have feedback; sometimes I didn't know why I couldn't do an ability or buy a skill. Overall had a lot of fun, thanks for making the game!

Rolling out of power! by Willbl3pic 2017-08-05T19:22:24Z

The game was enjoyable and very straight-forward. If there was more time it would have been fun to add more content (maybe enemies or pick-ups with abilities) to keep things interesting. Still, I liked the game a lot; thanks for making it!

Doki Doki Magica by Sir Daniev 2017-08-05T19:48:35Z

I also really enjoyed the art. I'll admit I couldn't beat the boss until I saw the comment that you can spam the spacebar. That made a huge difference (before I was just holding for autofire) and I beat it on the first try. I did find a good exploit was to hide behind the boss and collect hearts when my life was low. I wouldn't have minded a small damage invulnerability when I was hit because sometimes I was hit with 3 things at once insta-killing me. Still, it was a beautiful game and fun to play!

Alien Swarm by oxrock 2017-08-04T02:18:50Z

The game was a blast! I enjoyed it so much I played it again. Second time I made it 4:48 with 355 points. I loved the theme despite it being my downfall (I didn't manage my guns as well as I should have and when they ran out, so did my life). All in all a great game! I'm curious what your highest score was?

Unfueled by spudboy 2017-08-04T02:42:16Z

Solid game and great music. I also had a hard time with the ufo but the other two vehicle controls worked great.

Besmitten by Shodanon 2017-08-08T03:29:39Z

Made it to wave 17. Listening to the dragon screams was incredibly satisfying. Great game and well executed! Also, A+ for the physics when the monsters reached the village.

Smash ball by Sivael 2017-08-04T03:36:53Z

Great game! I had a blast just rolling around smashing everything in sight. Definitely not in the scope of the Ludum Dare, but it would be cool to have an entire town to smash! :) Thanks for making this.

Light The Way by BobbyTables 2017-08-04T02:23:00Z

Thanks for the reviews! My plan was to add fighting into the game play but I ended up running out of time. I have to say Unity was a blast to use and I'm looking forward to future games.

Light The Way by BobbyTables 2017-08-10T01:44:32Z

Shhh @akai-Ookami! :) Good find, I should have added wall detecting or decreased the player interaction radius for turning on towers. I think most towers that's not possible except for the first level.

Gravity Assist by pklaschka 2017-08-08T03:22:17Z

Cool idea and well executed. The aiming mechanic worked nicely and I had a lot of fun using the sun to curve my shots.

LD40 — The more you have, the worse it is

Brick Racer by nekoballs 2017-12-20T02:33:37Z

I had a lot of fun with this! The high score was a fantastic idea and nearly made me late for work because I wanted to improve my spot :)

Kingdom Savior by tmpxyz 2017-12-06T14:49:28Z

That was a blast to play. I really enjoyed collecting allies and choosing between managing defense/resource/attack.

Power Surge by Mettra 2017-12-20T02:49:32Z

Great game! Was a good difficulty level once I got the hang of it. It might have helped me if there was a description of what each upgrade did before the game started or on the game description but I got the gist of it (good icon choice!).

Gold Taxi by Code Dream 2017-12-06T14:55:48Z

I too really enjoyed the art. Driving around the city was enjoyable! I did notice the seconds on the time don't pad a zero which confused me until I realized what was happening (i.e. 1:5 instead of 1:05 for 1 minute 5 seconds).

Arr...A Generic Pirate Game by Windowwasher 2017-12-05T04:03:14Z

This game was a lot of fun to play! The islands with gold on them was a nice touch. Sometimes the royal ships felt too op, but I suppose that's what I get for destroying the Empire's fishing economy :)

Pirate's Escape by BobbyTables 2017-12-05T04:08:37Z

Thanks for the feedback @Windowwasher! If I had more time I would have looked into optimizing the ship spawning, but glad it still worked out!

Pirate's Escape by BobbyTables 2017-12-06T15:20:16Z

Glad you liked it @beanslasher! The lag was something I wish I could have fixed but 72 hours goes by quick.

Pirate's Escape by BobbyTables 2017-12-20T16:24:30Z

Great feedback everyone!

@notpresident35 - Thanks! I agree, definitely needs some touch up; glad you like it!

@Asellio - Always fun to have your own customization options :)

@AFlatThrasher - Glad you have fun! The best part of this game is seeing all the different strategies folks came up with. Of course, I didn't have a good feel of balancing game mechanics so I'm sure some designs are OP but its cool to see the ships created.

@binaryunit - I'll have to try the camera idea, that makes sense and I agree that would definitely help out.

@stmatn - Great suggestions! I really like the upgrade idea and would love to do some sort of talent tree. More enemies would also be fun, someone mentioned maybe sea monsters too :)

@nekoballs - Rotating the cannons is a cool idea. If I did that, I would probably make some sort of delay to make it feel a bit more realistic. If I had time I would have liked to add crewman to the ship and maybe the more crewman you had the faster the rotation.

Empowered State by grizeldi 2017-12-06T16:00:33Z

This game looked like a lot of fun! I think I was hitting a bug because I never saw rabbits, but would die seemingly at random. Maybe the rabbits weren't rendering? I was running this on Windows 10.

Fiscal Dungeon by Tom Panton 2017-12-20T03:27:19Z

Had a lot of fun with this game! Damn, never thought I'd be so glad to pay taxes.
