LD30 — Connected Worlds

Heart Star by AdventureIslands 2014-08-25T03:14:00

Wow, this is super polished! The reaction when one falls is very cute. This is just a great little game! Very well done! I'd love to see controller support in the future!

APOLLO by graebor 2014-08-25T15:56:00

Wow, this looks great! Interesting gameplay, I'll definitely be playing more!

A Step Away by PixelMonkey 2014-08-25T03:50:00

Very nice game! I did get stuck in a death loop at one point. I was in the "dark" world, jumping to the next vertical screen, then dropped into the screen below. I really like the concept for the game, I could see this being a good full game.

Videogame Hero by shatterhand 2014-08-26T16:42:00

This is a good game that could be great! Some tweaking could bring it all together nicely.

Monster+Connect! by saguaro 2014-08-26T02:49:00

This was a cool little game, thanks for sharing! A couple little oddities, but not bad overall!

Monster Dude's World! by CartoonJenn 2014-08-25T03:20:00

This is a good start, though there is not much to it. I hope the developers had fun making it, I would like to see the game fleshed out a little more. Keep up the good work!

Outer Shibe: Much Space by PixelOaks 2014-08-26T02:37:00

Nice job! This plays well. Nice, fast action. I was cynical at first but you have pulled off something fun!

Business, pleasure or just plain bad by cptalbertwesker 2014-08-27T12:43:00

I am not good at my job. Love the idea, I could see this being expanded into an intergalactic Papers, Please!

Space Spy Story by reheated 2014-08-25T03:41:00

Interesting. I'm not sure that I know what I am doing, though. I passed the first level but wasn't able to figure out the second. I'll try again tomorrow after actual sleep!

Hanspaul Holes by Lokiman 2014-08-25T03:58:00

Interesting puzzle game. It did take me a minute before I realized that you had to use the arrow keys to move the ball. That could simply be due to lack of sleep! Nice work!

Elemental by Aurel Bílý 2014-08-25T04:01:00

This is a cool little game. Typing based RPG battle system, neat idea!

Trust Music by Fonserbc 2014-08-25T03:53:00

Running chrome on Win8 I was unable to see anything. I pressed space to open my eyes but the screen stayed black. While pressing keys, I could hear music.

Dwarf Wars by AxeTheory 2014-08-25T04:04:00

Cool game, it definitely seems enjoyable. It took a minute to realize that I was trying to fling the guys up to the enemy base and stop trying to play missle command!

Dream Witch Erika by SimonLarsen 2014-08-26T16:49:00

Well this is a beautiful game! Plays pretty well, too. There are a lot of platformers this year, but this stands out!

The Artifacts of Color by Jaucheman 2014-08-27T12:34:00

My score was 340 ;) Not a bad game, I would like to see where you can take it. I'm guessing the controls were frustrating on purpose (similar to QWOP, though not exactly). I was able to play to completion, though. Nice work.

Super Galactic Space Bus Driver by Laddo D 2014-08-26T03:12:00

This is pretty solid, well done! Very enjoyable!

These Cosmic Chains by ploogle 2014-08-25T15:46:00

Interesting take on the theme. I think some progress markers would be nice, just to let the player know they are getting somewhere. I kept flying back to the sun to make sure it was still back there!

Lice evolutions by xrm0 2014-08-25T15:51:00

Haha, this is interesting. Nice work.

Oooover the double rainbow (Baldaquin IV) by Marcellus 2014-08-26T02:57:00

Nice take on the theme! I would like to see this fleshed out some more, I think it could be a pretty good game!

Souzou Cliff by PixlWalkr 2014-08-26T16:18:00

I like the story aspect. Fix a few typos and speed up the story telling just a bit and it will be very enjoyable. I had trouble with the platforming, but I think that is just me. Controlling 2 characters is interesting, though. Love the feel of the world, graphically it is very pleasing. I really like the audio as well. Thanks for sharing!

Multidimensional Bull Slaughter by Jani Nykänen 2014-08-25T16:01:00

This is fun once you get the hang of it! Nice game!

Twist And Weave by ZeppelinCaptain 2014-08-26T16:24:00

Nice, relaxed game. I like it a lot!

Celestial Impact by Boodog 2014-08-26T16:40:00

Nice work! Some tweaking on the controls might be in order, but this is a good effort!

Worldly Traveler by MrTedders 2014-08-26T02:32:00

Interesting take on the theme. I like the ridiculous graphics, audio was good. I like puzzle games like this. Popping off control panels and such! Old school bread and butter!

Orbital by louis.denizet 2014-08-27T13:20:00

Nice, simple graphics and gameplay. This is definitely one you can just pick up and play for a little bit and put down. Definitely has that draw to it. Very solid entry!

Liebyrinth by SketchyGalore 2014-08-26T16:39:00

All right, this is punishing further on! Nice work!

Galactic Bonding by alvarop 2014-08-25T03:45:00

Good work! This is a decent little time waster which really relies on memorizing the expressions/keys. You should be proud of pulling off even a simple game in 48 hours!

gravity by r0x0r 2014-08-26T03:01:00

Jumping between worlds has a cool feel to it. Nice work!

Zeit by Waterman7 2014-08-26T16:21:00

Great take on the theme. I didn't get past the prototype phase either, I hope you take the time to expand on this! Nice work so far!

Legacy of Lamas by Cell 2014-08-25T03:29:00

I definitely feel as if I've missed something. The game is very interesting from a visual standpoint, though. I'll be interested to see what's next!

Ennaffa by MintArcade 2014-08-27T12:59:00

Well, the visuals are amazing outside! Definitely a good looking game for 48 hours!

R-elink: A link between worlds by RaycoSantana 2014-08-25T11:11:00

You are right! Our concepts are very similar! You definitely pulled off a much better (and more complete) game than I did! Excellent execution!

The Garden by bendmorris 2014-08-26T16:35:00

I keep trying to quit, then I decide to let it go a little longer haha. You did something right!

Wormhole TD by FinnMacd 2014-08-26T16:38:00

Runs fine for me. Not a bad first attempt! Enjoyable!

Energize The Portals by Jaloko 2014-08-26T16:23:00

Looks good, it seems you caught everyone's attention with the parallax scrolling backgrounds! A few tweaks and you could really have a nice game here!

Phase Rider by Aggrathon 2014-08-27T13:10:00

A nice homage to the old pod racer games! Really solid for 48 hours!

A Ludic Proof of the Difficulties Inherent in Finding a Proper Skull by JackDegree 2014-08-27T13:07:00

I went home thinking of my mediocre career! Nice take on the classic text adventure!

Protect Both Worlds by Perjoka 2014-08-26T16:58:00

For some reason the camera angle stood out to me as just about perfect! Not sure that it actually matters, but it caught me. I like the game quite a bit now that I've figured it out. I would love to see the idea expanded upon.

Gray Area by Resonious 2014-08-26T03:06:00

Nice work! Need to normalize the audio a bit, but the gameplay is solid!

Cubic's Adventure by RikMuld 2014-08-25T15:53:00

Nice game, I would like to see more!

FLIP! by SetArray 2014-08-26T03:05:00

Very nice audio. I like the attention to the theme. It would be nice to see expanded upon! Keep up the good work!

FireBug by arbiccdheife 2014-08-26T01:22:00

The voices are so bad that they are great! Jumping needs a lot of work, but for 48 hours, this is a great effort! Nice work!

Princess Color by lasecun 2014-08-27T12:36:00

Not bad! It definitely could use some HUD elements. Otherwise, it plays well!

schizm by KittyMac 2014-08-26T03:09:00

Wow, the AI kicks the crap out of me! Nicely done, very good looking, solid gameplay! This is definitely in my top 10!

Airlocked by aGoodPointPoorlyMade 2014-08-27T12:52:00

Looks good, plays well, I'd call this a success!

Bi-Bob by Donar 2014-08-26T01:28:00

Very good interpretation of the theme. There is definitely some challenge in the top level!

Severed Worlds by Rob Glen 2014-08-26T01:37:00

The music was nice, gameplay was a little slow and I wasn't sure what to do. I clicked the weird objects, but they didn't seem to do anything. I might be back to give it another try, though. Nice effort for 48 hours!

Node 54 by silentlamb 2014-08-27T12:38:00

The inverted controls are rough! Fun game, you should definitely continue development of this!

Waterfly Octus by gillenew 2014-08-25T16:00:00

A bit off theme, but I really like this game! Great work!

Where's the Color? by tbam 2014-08-27T12:47:00

I can totally appreciate your honesty! Nice effort, I'm not a huge fan of runners, but I did play this longer than I planned!

Star Tycoons by MechanicMoon 2014-08-26T19:55:00

Thanks for the "comment" on my game... Interesting game, definitely takes some getting use to. Looks good.

Star Tycoons by MechanicMoon 2014-08-26T20:16:00

Currently my ship is flying back and forth between a planet and an outpost. I am making large sums of money, but the interface seems frozen as I am unable to buy more outposts or ships. Using Win 7, latest Chrome, 2.4ghz i5, 8gb RAM.

Star Tycoons by MechanicMoon 2014-08-26T20:36:00

HTML5, I was attacked by pirates but I paid them off. There is a purple ship flying around, though. Maybe that has something to do with it?

Star Tycoons by MechanicMoon 2014-08-26T20:47:00

The only part of the interface that is working is the grid toggle. I'll try again after dinner with my family this evening. I find myself really wanting to play more... haha

Parazzle by adoldev 2014-08-27T12:50:00

This is hard, but I really like the concept!

DEMON BABY HALL DEFENSE by uberscientist 2014-08-27T12:48:00

This is... interesting! haha, not a bad FPS, nice work!

Dimensional Leak by Blizzard Muffin 2014-08-27T12:53:00

This is a very solid first entry! I'll be looking forward to more from you in the future!

Connection of the Damned by modwizcode 2014-08-27T13:04:00

OK, you definitely deserve some points in humor! I know how it is to run out of time while fighting with code issues and making things work. Good job on your first entry!

Rainboverse by modbox 2014-08-27T12:55:00

Nice first LD, glad you had fun!

Souls by explosivelimes 2014-08-25T03:01:00

We've played a couple rounds so far with a deck printed on regular paper. Not too hard to get into, seems like it could hold the attention of our gaming crew. Look forward to playing some more!

I would like to see some more polish on the illustrations. Not too much, the cards as they are have a certain charm. It is way too early to make a call on the game balance, but that will come with time. For 48 hours, this is impressive and totally nails the competition theme!

Super Alien Bro by nerd burglars 2014-08-27T14:40:00

It isn't working on my work PC, I'll have to try when I get home. After the ship crashes I just have a black screen. If I hit enter, I can hear the level restart. Music is catchy, though!

Two Selves by @kadybat [ellen] 2014-08-25T03:08:00

This is an interesting text adventure game which explores the life of a person who leads 2 lives. One displayed to the outside world which conforms to people's expectations and the author's "real" life. I definitely feel like I'm on the outside looking in while playing this game. Good luck to the author, I did not play to completion but I will be coming back for more.

Ludum dare entry #1 by SomeGreenGoo 2014-08-27T13:01:00

Definitely a good choice focusing on gameplay over graphics! I would really like to see this after a few rounds of polish. You should definitely continue development!

TwitForce by GLStephen 2014-08-26T01:32:00

Not a bad effort, it would be nice to see the idea fleshed out some, though. Not sure about the theme, but maybe it is hidden in there somewhere.

PhotoWorlds by bobrocks 2014-08-25T03:23:00

I found out that part of the main mechanic for this concept (displaying the screen shot on the "poloroid" picture) is not working anywhere but on my dev PC. Sigh... oh well. I'll flesh it out and have some fun with it in my own time. Thanks for stopping by. Let me know if you have a different experience!

PhotoWorlds by bobrocks 2014-08-25T20:59:00

Thank you all for stopping by! I wish I had something better for you to play! I enjoyed myself and learned a few things. Hopefully that will result in a better game next time!

PhotoWorlds by bobrocks 2014-08-26T12:23:00

Thanks for commenting alvarop and harko12. Alvarop, I've updated the .exe changing where the game is saving the screenshot. That seems to have fixed the issue that caused displaying the image to not work.

Harko12, That is all there is to it, unfortunately. I had limited time to put toward this and spent most of it just figuring out how to make this feature work. I will be continuing on the project, though. I like the idea and want to see what I can do with it. Thanks again to everyone who tried it out!

PhotoWorlds by bobrocks 2014-08-26T20:08:00

That's no good, FinnMacd! Thanks for letting me know. I'm not sure what is causing that. My cousin is having the same problem (He's the only one I know locally that is). I'm looking into a different way to store the "photos" in general. I really appreciate you giving it another shot!

PhotoWorlds by bobrocks 2014-08-26T20:45:00

Ikr: Thanks for trying. I did recently fix it, glad you like the concept. I will be working on it more as it seems it wasn't a 48 hour concept (for me, anyway!).

FinnMacd: Thanks for trying again. I'm not sure why it is working on some systems, but not others. I'm glad you got to try it out and I will post about updates here!

MechanicMoon (javifugitivo): Thanks for clearing that up. I understand how it is and thank you for the compliments!

PhotoWorlds by bobrocks 2014-08-27T00:30:00

Thanks for giving it another try! I know it isn't much, but that is the main mechanic. The rest of the game is *mostly* familiar waters!

Space Kittens Will Not Save The World by Praron 2014-08-27T13:12:00

Love the art style, very simple and appealing. The game is pretty hard, not a bad thing at all. Great entry!

Clashing Galaxies by lkr 2014-08-26T16:44:00

Wow, this is harsh! You definitely have to figure out a good strategy if you don't want your butt handed to you. Well done!

Adventures of a Dwarven Fellow : Day One by Spairn 2014-08-27T13:16:00

Wow, those turtles have a lot of blood in them! I might be missing something, but the turtles in the tower keep kicking my ass!

Nosliw Plane by hamster_mk_4 2014-08-26T03:16:00

Interesting. I had trouble reading the text, either due to the font or the size. That could just be me, though. Not a bad start for a 3D platformer. I hope you plan on fleshing this out some.

Breach of Dimensions by ursagames 2014-08-27T00:50:00

This game controls really well for a 3D platformer made in 48 hours. The attacking could use some work, but that can come with time. Really happy with the game, would like to see more. I made it to the second artifact (in the lava level)

Space Age by john111898 2014-08-26T01:16:00

Wow, this is pretty in-depth! Nicely done! I would like to see dev continued, smooth out some of the UI and expand upon it. Could be a lot of fun!

Crystalbots: T-94 wants colors by rynti 2014-08-25T03:34:00

Not bad. I would like to see the controls tweaked, somewhat. Either that, or I just need to get use to them.

LD44 — Your life is currency

Woodland Warfare by Kichex 2019-04-30T03:48:41Z

Nice work for the time allotted. I hope you plan on expanding upon it!

Piggy Butchery by Reality Blind 2019-04-30T03:58:04Z

I love the art style, the gameplay looks like it could be fun but I can't get the pig past the first pit. Then the game just sits at the screen. It could be fun with some more time invested. Nice work!

Tanemaki by Wyatt 2019-04-30T03:25:36Z

This was a nice surprise game. I really enjoyed playing, nice work.
