LD31 — Entire Game on One Screen

Tower Falling by dalbinblue 2014-12-09T00:00:00

Great game! I've managed to finish it and it was really a ton of fun, so thanks much for it! The last levels are really well-thought and challenge to beat. The only downside from my view is that sometimes there are buggy invisible blocks, but that should be easy to fix in post-compo version. :}

And you should write somewhere, that after you blow up the last pillar, you have to be in light spot or you are dead. I actually didn't see this rule anywhere. (But I might be blind :D )

Great game!

Dungeons & Margins VII: Financial Fantasy by matthewdpace 2014-12-09T11:29:00

Yeah, please make a proper release at least for Windows, this game looks promising! :)

MicroChess by feizenbara 2014-12-09T10:47:00

Well, it's too difficult for me, but I accidently got near the end of this game and then it crashes. Sometimes I've just pressed some keys and I've won. Interesting concept, but well I'm not the best kind of player fot it. :D

And there's interesting bug - when you move before all interactions are proccessed, it messes up them and they start again and sometimes in very different order - sometimes this can be exploited to win the level.

Also - great humour. :)

A Battle of Snow & Fire by SneManden 2014-12-08T22:59:00

I really like the motion of dragons' bodies, it looks really nice. Also the A.I. of dragons seem pretty well balanced. They aren't targeting all the time the snowman, but sometimes they seem pretty clever.

Maybe add a little bit of story and maybe some bonuses and it could very nice game. :-)

Make War, Not Science! by Budi 2014-12-09T00:15:00

Windows 32bit version should be fixed, I've changed linker flags to make this library statically linked and just to be sure I put the library into archive.

Please report any more errors, I will do my best to solve all critical problems. Thanks :-}

Make War, Not Science! by Budi 2014-12-09T23:00:00

Well, I think you have 64bit system and there wasn't proper support fot it before. I've updated the archive, now you should be able to run my game.

About static linking - I don't think it's good idea, it's much better to rely on system libraries.

Make War, Not Science! by Budi 2014-12-10T08:11:00

I've tested the download links and everything seemes to work ok. Was probably issue on Google's side. Sorry, I didn't expect this to happen. :/

If this is going to continue, I will think of moving the files elssewhere.

Chance Encounter by allurious 2014-12-09T11:38:00

One of the best games I played so far. Great graphics & humour. I like it very much. :)

Orbitalis by acerunox 2014-12-09T13:21:00

Great clone of Flappy Bird, I can imagine it as a simple browser game. With sharing online scores onto Facebook, it could be really good "social game".

You Have the Con by OccamsRazor 2014-12-08T22:44:00

I liked the idea, it feels complete and graphics with music and mood blends together well. I don't like controlling the direction of ship with mouse, for me, he game feels too much "clicky".

But overall well done, sir!

No way! by Jadernak 2014-12-09T13:13:00

Very nice and funny concept, the stories are great, but a little bit of hint what I can do would be also nice. :)

Cave In by tielbyrd 2014-12-08T23:17:00

Physics is really awesome. It's great mixture of real collisions and gravity with object unrealistically warping through each other. :) Maybe adding more well-designed objects and few levels and this game would make this game REALLY great.

Spider Simulator by Stechas 2014-12-08T23:11:00

Excellent idea! I really like the idea to create threads and join them to catch all the flies in the world! The only downside of this game is sometimes it's quite difficult to connect two threads together. But overall it's great concept!

GTAlien by Pulsartronic 2014-12-09T13:00:00

Very cool game, it's really a lot of fun!

Orbitals by DXsmiley 2014-12-09T10:35:00

I really like orbital mechanics in this game! Crazy music together with minimalistic graphics makes this game really consistent! Very nice! :)

Bernard's Tomb by anael 2014-12-08T22:49:00

For me, it shows only blue screen and writes "Error : can't read file D:/ld31-games/Bernardstomb_win/meshs/player_head.maa:" into console window.

Also it crashes after I try to close the window.

Tested on Win7 32bit.

You Gotta Feed the Wizards by lycrashampoo 2014-12-09T10:59:00

Very interesting concept, but too difficult for me. :/ Also the installer is pretty annoying to me.

LD34 — Two Button Controls / Growing

Get Grown Or Die Trying by OrangeeZ 2015-12-17T15:11:00

Surely one of the better games - I have really fun playing it. I like the idea of tree against lumberjacks, drug addicts are kinda weird to this game. Also I miss the point, why the tree has thug life necklace, but it's funny. :D

There are some points to how it make better: The upgrade system is unclear, once I have a powerful kill-all-enemies acorn and then I got it swapped with not so good red balls. But the last spiky ball gun is great. Also it would be nice to have a music in-game. In the menu it's great, but I do not spend much time in menus, I rather play a game. :-)

Growing Spaceships by Lasty 2015-12-17T14:13:00

I like the concept, it reminds me TerraTech, but it's much more simpler. It runs ok, so yeah, it's fine game, which I can imagine to grow into really great game.

If I were you, I would focus on balancing gameplay. I would love to make a huge ship (Death Star :D ) and destroy everything, but those small ships are still harassing me and destroying my ship, so I can't really grow. And it would be wonderful, if the game generated the enemies the same size as I have - then I would really like to enjoy a big-ass combat between huge ships. Also I think the missiles need cooldown.

So to sum it up - I really like the gameplay, but it needs a little bit of polish.

I played patch 2.

Shaman Flower by SaintHeiser 2015-12-22T14:24:00

Awesome, like it!

Asteroid Madness by maksibonus 2015-12-17T15:24:00

I really liked how the music was sped up by your progress, great idea!

In the beggining it's really entertaining game, but then it gets the same, there are no funny texts and music gets really annoying.

Thanks!

Damacreat by KayZ 2015-12-22T14:30:00

The controls are interesting but really HARD.

Colony 3028 by klianc09 2015-12-22T13:28:00

Yeah, everything is quite small and hard to control. I like the concept, but I was kinda frustrated by the speed and controls.

Thumbs up for RTS in 72 hours! :-)

BREAKING MOUSE :) by elizeu 2015-12-22T14:51:00

Nice game, I like the art. :-) The collisions should be more clear - I think if the bullet collides with UFO, it should kill it.

I also like the speed of this game, it's really funny and challenging. :-)

Generic Tycoon Game by krika08 2015-12-17T14:24:00

Without game engine - great work! :-) A like the idea of generic tycoon. :D Overall I think it needs polishing, because the game is quite pointless. I like you made music and sounds, it really adds a lot to a game like this.

Growing experiment by LabOne 2015-12-17T14:43:00

Interesting concept, I would like it, when there some changes.

You should be able to eat the food from a bigger distance - now it's quite hard to aim for it. The mouse bug is pretty bad (playing in reverse is hardcore). Also after each restart there shouldn't be the tutorial again.

Quality Control by PixelPerfect 2015-12-17T14:36:00

I like the concept, but this game needs a little bit of polish.

The tutorial is needed, I thought the objects need to satisfy all requirements. Also the size is pretty unclear.

Also the screens with score and instructions are pretty annoying, I just wanna play again. (And they are slow).

And there should be bigger time window, when you can click on the object. Sometimes I know what I should do with it, but I am just a little bit late.

Overall - great concept, thanks for the game! :-)

Forest Wars by Rother Games 2015-12-16T20:24:00

Loved the concept and art. :-) Also the music is very satisfying!

Some tips to make it better:
The tutorial is really boring, I just wanna play! It would be much better to show the controls in the small tutorial, when you actually play the game, but I understand it's really hard to do in 48 hours. Also it would be good to write the controls on this page (yeah, I forgot even the "show me again the tutorial" key :D )

Those tall buildings kinda overlaps the smaller ones, so it's quite hard to see, what's happening underneath them.

Also the controls are quite uncommon for strategy games - I would like to have LMB as select and then RMB as move.

The screen moving is also quite unusual, it would be better to move the screen by moving the mouse to the edges or by holding the middle button. It's not so hard to implement and it would lead to a much smoother gameplay.

Also - I cannot download the source codes, please fix the link - thanks! :-)

Overall - great game, thanks!

Sprout by TheOZone 2015-12-22T13:37:00

I like the art, which is created by the game. Needs a little bit of polish (sometime your sprout is generated so badly you are immediately doomed).

Also the music is great, nice concept, this game is really good. :-)

Petal Hill by fishbrain 2015-12-22T12:55:00

Sounds are really weird, scary, but actually I really like them. Original concept, well done :-)

CandyShopping by Kraky 2015-12-22T15:01:00

Nice game. :-) The graphics is unfortunately quite bad, cars should have smaller hitbox and it's maybe too much random. Gameplay is good, I spent like 10 minutes trying to win. :-) I also like the audio - especially in the menu.

Formula Wroom by Benlitz 2015-12-22T14:01:00

I like the name! :-) The concept is great and I like the animation of car switching the lane. It's really hard to beat the yellow card. Also I think it should be 5 lap race, 3 is quite short for me.

Hero of the nest by Alexander Shukalo 2015-12-17T14:18:00

Nice graphics and music. The game is pretty hard - I've really sucked at this. Overall great work!

And the world kept on turning by little-burrito 2015-12-20T18:50:00

Great game - nice audio, good concept - really liked that. :-) The difficulty is kinda high, but it's surely doable.

FIY I've encountered a possible bug - I've finished the level 4 and it didn't do anything. In the second run it was ok. (Sorry, I don't have more information :/ )

Complete Control by Mikhail 2015-12-19T20:05:00

Interesting concept, I really like there are many strategy games this Ludum Dare.

Unfortunately, for really great strategy it needs better graphics (actually it needs some graphics...), better controls (for sure! these controls are so unpractical), balanced gameplay (now the gameplay is: spam mines, spam barracks, win everything) and better UI.

But there is one aspect, which I liked a lot - the music! I really liked that dystopic mood of the music - I really felt like great emperor ruining the whole world in the huge war. But sometimes it's maybe too much dystopic and scary. :-D

Eatvolution by raatmarien 2015-12-22T14:43:00

Nice game, classic concept made clean, smooth. I like it.

Garbage Can you escape? by Weloxux 2015-12-22T13:50:00

I like this game! It feels very Ludum Darish! :-) Humorous, retro graphics, 8bit music, simple gameplay. Actually this is one of the best game I've seen this jam, it feels really good. :-)

TrainWrecker by Kryptarchy 2015-12-22T14:37:00

I really like this game. :-) Simple graphics, great concept with shooting chariots. I like that you grow, but you become easier target for enemies, so they destroy some of your chariots and then again. Nice loop. :-)

2 Button Garden by Calvin B 2015-12-22T12:35:00

Nice concept, it would be nice, if this game was more deep - some random elements, which can break the stereotype. Overall I liked that, it's simple with cool music. :-)

And I love the flower on the fire - it's just so cool. :D

Flip Flop Adventures by Nibbles Team 2015-12-17T14:02:00

Really nice graphics and music, I like that. I think the game's a little bit bugged. After some time playing it, it generates more and more tunnels and sometimes unbeatable obstacles (one I got an obstacle even in the tunnel). Also I think it needs more gameplay balance - I would like to see more obstacles, but a little bit slower - now you are just waiting for a really fast obstacle to just smash you.

Skyway by Decentsauce 2015-12-22T13:14:00

I like the voice! Well done, man. :-D

I like the concept, it needs just a little bit of balance, slow speed is a little bit boring, but after one speed up and bad luck with obstacles, it immediately gets really hard.

Dog Eat Dog by Lythornus 2015-12-22T13:21:00

Nobody likes installers for simple game. It would be great, if I can just run the game without installing it.

But for your first entry to game jams - it feels good, keep on doing it! :-)

And I like the handdrawn menu - it's funny looking. :D

Singapore Christmas by iovorobiev 2015-12-22T14:13:00

Nice idea. :-) I like that this game is only one button control. :-) I have like 10 layers and it's quite simple even on this height, but the tree growth gets really long and the game is more about waiting. :-/

Overall I like concept of this game, well done! :-)

Space Meteor Runner by Los_Stormtroopers 2015-12-19T19:45:00

I do not like that you disabled all categories except overall - there are always better sides and worse sides about every game.

I like the graphics and music. The controls are little bit harder - I miss the repair bonus a lot. Also I think it needs a little bit more balancing. In the beginning it's really simple and after some time it suddenly becomes unplayable. I think it would be better to start at faster speed, but accelerate slower.

But it's amazing you were group of people who met for the first time in their lives and made this game, thumbs up! :)

Apple Juice Tycoon by felixreeve 2015-12-17T13:50:00

I really loved the concept. I can see it as quite good strategy game.

It would be nice to have a better controls (using mouse) and the opportunity to play the game directly in browser with one click (nowadays it's not really hard to host it somewhere)

EXTERMINOIDS! by LudoGames 2015-12-22T12:25:00

Great concept - it feels like start of really good game, it just needs more levels. :-)

Characters are getting stucked some times, which is quite annoying and I don't like the camera effect, when your character is shooting.

War... by Lapiroxx 2015-12-19T20:20:00

Well, I don't know what to say. I really like the thought of this game - war is bad even if you on the winners' side.

Is this entry even game? Again I don't know.

I really want to thank you for this entry, it's really different and really deep. The scoring wasn't easy for me, I really like its music, mood and theme, but in overall it's just not a game.

Just... well done!

Elevation by Finn Stokes 2015-12-20T19:01:00

This game is pretty awesome - I really like the level design and level progression! Really great concept. :-)
