LD56 — Tiny Creatures

TINY PACK by xk_the_name 2024-10-07T01:23:49Z

Very good submission! As people have mentioned, this being done in 48 hours is quite an accomplishment! Good time saving strategies were used in the development for sure!

The Fair Folk of Ridianfa by unpronounceable 2024-10-07T19:55:03Z

I can always appreciate ascii art and old school adventure games. Though I feel like there is little understanding of what the player is doing? They can make decisions but it may not be clear why they are making them.

smolHunt by ping78 2024-10-08T18:09:21Z

Cute game, I really like the models for the cat and the rats. I wish there was more to the gameplay however. Besides that, Very good Compo submission!

Whiskers of Fear by tinykidtoo 2024-10-08T06:07:20Z

Pretty neat game with a lot of good models! very diverse environment given the amount of time for the compo! Would be good to know how many pieces of food the player is meant to collect

Attack on The Piper by kiv 2024-10-06T23:43:06Z

Very interesting concept for a game. A light logical deduction based game with branching pathways, very cool! Though the gameplay mostly comes down to talking to the rat with the red dot next to it.

Fish Thingy by Steffo 2024-10-06T23:25:52Z

Cute game, took a second to realize that the "cool music" I was hearing was actually the sound of my fishies dying :upside_down:

Evolve by oller125 2024-10-10T21:25:08Z

Nice work, I could see the influence from spore just from the screenshots. Very nice redux of the cellular stage!

Cheeese Watch by Yorsh 2024-10-07T22:41:09Z

Very fun! Only notes would be that the range in which you can actually flick is rather small, so when things get hectic it can be irritating/frustrating to miss so frequently. Besides that, the sound is very well done for a Compo, as well as the visuals! Good work!

Harmonies by JacobSchwartz 2024-10-10T21:08:18Z

Just a tip, Godot has the ability to export your game files in HTML5, which you can use to either embed your game directly into the Ludum Dare submission page, or use to host your game directly on a itch.io page! That way more people can play your game without running into system errors!

Tiny Echos by Talia 2024-10-08T18:37:10Z

Interesting little platformer. Pretty minimal graphics, but the atmosphere is very serene. Good work!

Colobox by CrishNate 2024-10-08T19:02:29Z

I wish there was a bit more to this game, but good entry!

Exter-meh-nator by Samuel Fine 2024-10-10T21:12:57Z

Cool game! Just a tip, Godot actually has the ability to export your game into HTML5 so that you can embed your game directly into your itch.io page. I managed to figure it out for this jam so it wasn't too hard to accomplish. Helps more people play/rate your game!

Critter Clash by Frogravity 2024-10-08T17:59:36Z

Very interesting game! Fun art style and design!

Impish Descent by Honey Pony 2024-10-10T21:17:35Z

Fun combat game! Good variety of imps and relics, but the gameplay is a little repetitive. Great submission with lots of potential!

W.A.S.P. - Warrior And Scout Protocol by Paroxysmal 2024-10-07T00:08:24Z

As people have mentioned, the graphics are very appealing! For a GameJam game, this looks and feels very good to play, but maybe one more enemy type would be good? Besides that, this is a very good game!

Dollhouse Blaze by ugly_robot 2024-10-08T18:01:35Z

Your itch link is not working :(

Dollhouse Blaze by ugly_robot 2024-10-08T18:43:08Z

@ugly-robot Nice! just played it and it's very fun! Cool execution of the idea, I can see this being developed into a fun, hectic game!

Tiny Creatures by kernon 2024-10-07T00:26:13Z

Interesting idea, but needs some more development time!

Keep It Up Kitty by richjbaron 2024-10-07T04:37:08Z

Fun little game, though the way the treats work is rather punishing. Having to not let any drop past and having to make the cat and the treats bounce into each other is kind of demanding for the player? Good music for it though!

Stacked Creatures by Kepsert 2024-10-06T23:32:46Z

Very fun game! Good development of mechanics throughout! Very intuitive level design and progression of difficulty!

Gob by rickylee 2024-10-07T00:45:52Z

Very fun game! As far as game jam games go, if I can make it to the end of a game I'd say that's a good sign. Reminds me of Katamari Damacy in concept! Both in gameplay and in polygonal art style.

Attention Spam by DogeSquad 2024-10-08T19:09:28Z

Funny concept and interesting execution. Additional levels would really help! Good job!

Creature Tamer by ljg 2024-10-10T21:10:36Z

Funny little text adventure game. Could use some more time in the oven, but good progress for the Compo!

My Game by xiaoliu99 2024-10-10T21:05:06Z

Fun game, good job completing the submission! All the more experience for your next jam!

(o o) by zimonitrome 2024-10-06T23:21:54Z

Very cute! Unique usage of ascii art for the game

Observing by look_for_happiness 2024-10-08T19:01:00Z

Cute idea! Always feels good to find an effective art style given the game design!

Bnuuy by Tetrergeru 2024-10-08T19:28:03Z

Graphics are very cute! Not sure if it's intended that shooting while in the air pushes the player backwards, but sort of feels nice haha. with some added movement options and more clear enemy projectiles, this game could be very good!

Look by sudocoffee 2024-10-08T18:11:25Z

Very interesting mind bending game. Could use more development to really see the full vision, but good job given the time constraint!

Goldfish Husbandry by gnats 2024-10-07T22:55:25Z

Nice game, brings me back to breeding pokemon to get perfect IVs. The UI may benefit from some outlining as I had problems actually placing the fish into the correct places.

Tiny Trails by Custodi 2024-10-06T23:52:45Z

Fun ideas around different mechanics that can be made that involve the mouse. Juggling between protecting all of the fellas can be pretty difficult/tedious as many of the mechanics overlap at times (clicking near the yellows, while holding for the blues, while pushing off the reds)

Buncha Bad Babies Beating Bald Bloke by Kaaren Tenson 2024-10-06T23:15:29Z

Fun idea with funny animations. The difficulty is a bit high as it uses all of the keys on your keyboard, but if you put enough time it is still beatable.

Rat Game by Pachino55 2024-10-07T23:02:45Z

After the first falling mouse trap I was almost expecting a Mario Kaizo type game, so I was surprised to see the later levels were so simplistic. Something that would be nice to add to a platformer like this would be 'coyote time' so that running and jumping off of the edge of a platform doesn't feel as difficult!

Follow ME! by OldToadPower 2024-10-08T17:09:27Z

I really like this game! As other have mentioned, the speed of it is a little slow, both for the players movement and the following of the dudes. There was a bit of an issue with giving the 'attack' command as it works as a toggle for nearby targets, meaning if you are in a big group of followers you are turning it on for some, but turning it off for others. Though this could be fixed by having a 'don't do X' button, this led to me finding out that quickly toggling between attack and not-attack resets the attack cooldown for the guys, making them shoot very quickly which helped keep more dudes safe.

GravelHeir by reecemungus 2024-10-08T18:04:51Z

Fun adventure game, and I love the tone! Just to let you know, the itch.io link does not work! It says you still need to publish the game? Just a heads up!

gmO- by James-Tanm 2024-10-08T18:00:31Z

Fun game with an interesting premise!

Finger Gun by John Brewer 2024-10-10T21:05:40Z

Interesting idea for a niche platform!

A Story of Steebs by BrotherBrody 2024-10-06T23:36:00Z

@paroxysmal understood! Just added control in post description

A Story of Steebs by BrotherBrody 2024-10-06T23:36:29Z

@dooskington Thanks for playing! And yes, the player window for itch does have that issue

A Story of Steebs by BrotherBrody 2024-10-08T21:31:11Z

@peringo @james-tanm Thanks to both of you for the praise and critiques! And for playing into my steeb-like joke :sweat_smile:

A Story of Steebs by BrotherBrody 2024-10-10T06:17:13Z

@sudocoffee Thanks for stepping out of your comfort zone to try my game! I know that takes a lot of willpower so be sure to rest up.

And yes, I was nearing the submission time as I was designing levels so some had more inspiration than others. I wanted to make sure I had enough time to iron out any problems with the submission since I had never done it for Ludum Dare or on itch.io before :smile:

Pestilence by Oliver Crowston 2024-10-07T19:44:45Z

Fun little rat game! It's a little on the easier side, but that isn't always a bad thing. Only note was when walking up to the houses, if your rat touches the house it snap to face the opposite direction, making it so that you can't interact with it with 'e'. SO you just have to be careful about walking up close enough to the houses :)

Tiny Heads by DashVirus 2024-10-08T18:02:46Z

Interesting stacking of mechanics, and a good art style for development!

One day by BOHNE 2024-10-08T18:59:28Z

Well, I guess he's a man of his word
