The Gifts of Gaios by Kaleido 2018-12-03T08:46:06Z

Really wonderful idea - about halfway through the first level I thought to myself "it would be really cool if we were forced to pick one of our abilities to sacrifice" and you did exactly that. Loved how it afforded different paths an obstacles depending on your choices, and made for a really natural difficulty curb.

I found myself getting stunlocked quite a bit- the very last hallway was especially hard to get through, but it did make me reflect pretty heavily on everything I had sacrificed that was making it so hard. But overall, a really innovative concept executed really well.

Rainbow Cats by Niarkou 2018-12-04T10:55:04Z

A really fun little game with really great puzzles!! Biggest issue from me was the buttons on the screen between each stage were in reversed positions from z and x on the keyboard, meaning I hit the wrong one quite a few times and had to start over from the beginning. Apart from that though, it was a really fun game though with a great learning curve, very nice work.

Ursa by Maksym 2018-12-04T11:27:25Z

Super pretty, a great atmosphere, and music was wonderful. As mentioned in the previous comment, double jumping is a bit finicky (it looks like the reason for this is when you're on a platform thats smaller than the bear, it thinks you're floating?) and was unable to get past the first walljumping stage because of it - but will definitely check back later to play again since it's a very lovely game, very great work.

You Can't Make An Omelette by Derek Wilson 2018-12-04T06:44:12Z

A really fun and really wonderful game. Also, I know it's a small thing, but the feedback for pressing the button at the very start was really good.

Meaningless dungeon by Ethan Losten 2018-12-03T07:50:40Z

Just a heads up - the itch link seems to be broken!!

Old Ways by Esosek 2018-12-03T09:08:52Z

Fun concept!! Having the wheelbarrow feel like a vehicle was a really good touch.

Gunning out of Energy by Ants Aare 2018-12-04T11:07:46Z

Really fun!! Your energy being used for everything really makes you think hard about when to use it. Ran into two bugs - clicking on the about page sends you to the game over screen, and when I bought the armor from the shop, my energy went to/below zero, and I could no longer take damage from enemies or do anything as I had run out of energy, so had to restart. (Neither were gamebreaking or anything for me though, just mentioning them to give you a heads up!!)

@thevinter if I'm not mistaken, bug fixes are ok to add after uploading! "Certain Bug Fixes are allowed.

You are asked to highlight the changes you make in your submission (a short change log). "

F R I E N D G U N by Hydezeke 2018-12-04T06:14:39Z

Really great job on the atmosphere and how alive the whole game felt, wonderful work.

Quetzalcoatl by gentoogames 2018-12-04T10:58:18Z

There's no download link 😱

Pizza Cats In Space: Encounters of the Fur Kind by rabidBadgr 2018-12-04T02:15:46Z

Really great job, especially for not having any unity experience a few days ago. Unsure if there's more than one level, but I can't seem to be able to click the continue to next level button after beating the stage (quit button works fine though). There were also two collectibles towards the end that I did not seem able to jump high enough to grab (though I might just need to git gud)

Fire Leaf Water by The Gear Shift 2018-12-04T02:30:36Z

A really small concept that you managed to get a ton of mileage out of - great work.

Byesee Bye Balloon by Rock Night 2018-12-03T09:13:30Z

Heads up - there don't seem to be any links to play the game!

The things we carry by arctic_allosaurus 2018-12-04T01:20:22Z

Loved the atmosphere and art!! Unsure if intentional or not, but while playing I wasn't sure if I actually could reach home, or if it was more of an infinite runner situation (but eventually made it to the end and found out it was the former!) Whether or not you want to convey this information (through say some sort of percentage of how close you got whenever you lose) is up to you though, as the player knowing they're making progress might be against the mood you were trying to go for.

Goodboy Advance by rik 2018-12-04T02:25:02Z

Outstanding work... gameplay art and music were all wonderful and having to explore each stage again with a different set of tools made a lot of use out of a small space. Really great job making such a professional looking and feeling game in such a short amount of time.

All Alone, On This Plateau. by Anyonebacon 2018-12-03T07:19:18Z

A really powerful small experience - great work!! Quick note, I don't know if this is exclusive to me but I couldn't play on the itch build as pressing space moved the screen down rather than starting the game (Gamejolt worked fine however)

Dog Dog Dungeon by bubblewandgames 2018-12-04T23:07:12Z

@kelbg oh no, thank you for pointing that out!! that makes for a 3rd end level breaking glitch, note to self, do not save the last level for the last hour. should be fixed now!!

Zoe and the Polypantheon by Carraka 2018-12-04T03:13:10Z

Loved the game! Lovely art and intuitive puzzle solutions. Only managed to get 2 endings so far but I can guess think of the order of events I'll need to follow to get the last one, only thing I'm missing is figuring out where to use one of the items, but the fact that I know what to do once I figure that out goes to show you did a good job making it flow nicely.

Everything was Explosive - The Space Adventure by muumeroinen 2018-12-04T06:19:29Z

Really fun game, throwing yourself at spaceships and blowing yourself up had a very good feel to it. Would have liked to change the direction I was shooting in after I started shooting, but this may have been intentional to make it harder, and if that's the case I would keep it!

Elon Musk Simulator by Farious 2018-12-04T01:56:16Z

Nice job! Quick heads up - the window size in the webgl version makes the text pretty hard to read.

Armorican Defenders by Avzgui 2018-12-04T05:26:30Z

Great work on this!! There seem to be a few bugs that you might wanna fix up if you can, specifically the owl tower freezes the game, and the canons also freeze the game when shooting (but only for a few seconds).

The Making Of by Silvae 2018-12-04T01:46:41Z

Really fun concept, loved the individual mini-games being broken down into tiny chunks still reflective of their actual tasks. The music game while fun was a bit longer than the others- ended up with 10 code 10 art and only 2 music. Although to be fair, sacrifices do have to be made.

Angry Mountain by Samuel Fine 2018-12-04T10:08:41Z

A fun and cute little game, and the lack of animations added to the absurdity of a raccoon on a hoverboard. Despite the missing stuff I could still see where you were going with it, and you did a nice job with the time you had!!

Llama Duck Mama by WubbaDuck 2019-10-08T04:22:14Z

I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong but I don't seem to be able to harvest items by pressing E (I haven't rated yet but will go back to it if there's a solution to this!!)

Llama Duck Mama by WubbaDuck 2019-10-08T04:39:32Z

@wubbaduck oh I understand now! I was just tapping E - maybe write in the description that you need to hold it! Thanks!!

SHPLAT by Isvan 2019-10-08T04:37:49Z

Really love this, great use of the theme and love the concept in general. Having the controls a bit more responsive when moving left/right and movement while in the air would be nice though not necessary. Having the trails a bit more consistent with where you move would be nice too but all this is just juice, the core concept and style is excellent, great job.

Cloud Boy by JCMonkey 2019-10-08T04:59:29Z

Love the mechanics and the sound effects are very satisfying

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-09T04:33:22Z

Really fun, the bullet flash made it a bit hard to see but other than that great job!

Split or Steal by Monish Vyas 2019-10-08T06:30:18Z

Love the art, and the simple decision was surprisingly stressful each time (but like, in a good way, since hard decisions are supposed to be stressful)

Better than nothing by Fictions 2019-10-09T04:29:54Z

Loved the trade off of unlocking a new ability while increasing the number of enemies you had to deal with

Sneeter by bubblewandgames 2019-10-08T04:42:35Z

@karwei Yeah that's one of the known bugs that we just didn't have time to fix unfortunately 😭 glad you had fun though, thank you!!

@theomaniacal Thanks so much!!

Sneeter by bubblewandgames 2019-10-08T06:23:59Z

Thank you @itsbamboo @lizelive @space-nomad !!! And yeah absolutely, we're going to add sounds after Ludum Dare is over for sure

Ultimate Color Battle by Thierry Brochart 2019-10-09T04:18:42Z

Extremely cute, great job to you and your daughters.

Palely by Fluffy_Kaeloky 2019-10-08T20:49:25Z

Wow amazing work, love the core mechanic and the art style!!

Stylemancer by mattdotam 2019-10-08T04:35:55Z

This is so clever I love it!!

Orbiter by stuckne1 2019-10-09T03:16:00Z

Though short, the concept itself is really fun and could definitely be expanded upon to make a full game. Nice work!

Space Beggar by Carlos Lennon 2019-10-08T04:16:44Z

A fun spin on Asteroids, a bit hard to handle but it made trying for higher scores more rewarding in the long run!

Swoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooord!! by She Wrote 2025-04-08T07:54:28Z

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooouper clever. Felt a bit finicky at times but felt like that was part of the charm, like getting a gun in the middle of my perfectly balanced pillar and just having to figure it out on the fly. Excellent work on this

Blip by osh.studio 2025-04-08T06:01:28Z

The teleport was a really neat mechanic and loved how you use it to expand on the movement and controls. Figuring out the different things you could do with it was its own little puzzle and you absolutely made the most out of it. Great work!!

Orpheus Scroll by Triliks 2025-04-08T05:15:45Z

Really truly innovative - had a lovely time with this one. Loved the art!!! Had some issues at the start since it seemed to only work in fullscreen but the button wouldnt work at first, but after it actually started scrolling the button worked and I was able to play the lyre properly. I'm on Firefox and Windows 11! Lovely stuff :)

Topography by sudocoffee 2025-04-08T08:07:38Z

Wow what an amazing concept!! Had a ton of fun solving this, really clever. The audio was lovely too, I couldn't tell if the music was reacting to what I was doing or not, it felt like it was but I didn't end up confirming one way or the other, either way it was lovely. The only issue I had was at one point I dug all the way back up to the surface and had to restart, so from then on out I was always a little scared I would do that on accident. Really great work, excellent idea and excellent execution of it

Sonar Boat Game by Joel Davis 2025-04-08T03:47:19Z

The sonar idea was suuuper interesting. I did find myself relying more on looking for the items under the water itself than using the sonar but I really loved using it and just the whole concept behind it, especially having to draw it in a line rather than say just, pressing a button and instantly getting a depth map of your surroundings. Great work!!

Crabs in a Bucket by busisen 2025-04-08T23:12:30Z

This was a super clever concept!! Loved having to juggle jumping to dodge the crabs but also jumping to damage them and needing to make decisions on the fly knowing if I jump to dodge a crab things could quickly spiral out of control.

Icebreakers! by npckc 2025-04-08T03:40:28Z

This was sooo cute!! Really cant sing enough praises. Characters were lovely art was so cute and the game was an absolute delight to play through the entire time. Music was also sooo good.

I kept getting an error message popup in the embedded version - Error syncing IDBFS: SecurityError: IDBFactory.open: The operation is insecure. Seemed to happen every time a choice was presented. Didn't cause any issues though, just letting you know!! I use Firefox and Windows 11.

AM I ORTHODOX? by ZungryWare 2025-04-08T04:35:28Z

Hey this was so cool. Incredible concept done incredibly well. Loved every second of it. Even when it got to the point where I ran out of things I could think of asking, I would use hints just to read more. Amazing work

Super Pyonpon by Saturnyoshi 2025-04-08T05:01:26Z

This was so much fun!!!! Everything from the gameplay to the pixelart to the juice to the music, it ruled and you absolutely nailed what you were going for. Just a complete blast to play and a lovely experience all around
