My favorite entry of LD35... I laughed out loud when Sergei made his final request.
My only complaint is that the coding window can't be resized. By the end, I had a line over 200 characters long, and it was a little unwieldy to have to scroll to edit.
I want to see more games like this!
Wow this is a great entry.
I love that the key-to-shape mapping changes every round. The game never gets easy.
It took me a minute to realize that all of the figures are facing left. Knowing that helps a lot when it gets faster - there's not any time to look at the guides in the corners. But it's still hard to quickly translate the direction they're facing to the right key. It's especially difficult with the more horizontal figures, like the fish and the dog (I think it's a dog). The standing figures like the man and the giraffe are much easier - you just point in the direction of their head.
Smooth animation, great UI, very polished all around. I just realized that "press [down arrow] to begin" is written in a font made from tangram pieces - slick.
I'll keep coming back to this one,... and I'm gonna beat Tommy's score :)
Very nice visuals, especially on the title screen! It would be great to see some other environments in this style.
I think the movement might be more satisfying if the car actually turned a little instead of just sliding left-to-right.
Cool entry - would love to see more.
I love this entry. The mechanics are surprising and the ending is great. At first I thought the warping was a glitch, but then I realized it was the central mechanic. So cool.
I wonder - was warping to the top of the platform even if you're not on it originally a glitch and you worked the level design around it? Or did you plan it like that from the beginning?
Also, what is "Pyburet"? An anagram for "puberty"?
The shapes and the transitions are very cool. It's more fun than you'd expect for how simple it is. Sometimes at the end, it felt like there wasn't even enough time to press the arrow keys enough times to switch to the right shape. I got 89% though! Cool entry.
Wow. A lot of games this LD have involved changing your shape to fit through things. This is the best one I've played!
It is smartly balanced as the score encourages you to spread out but the holes require you to tuck in. The blood spilling out is a funny touch.
The controls can be a little tough because it's not always easy to grab the body part you want to grab. Also, it would be nice if the exact amount of time you have left to change shape was more clear.
All in all, this is an awesome entry! One of my favorites.
Awesome!
Actually, we made a similar game (eat-everything-to-get-bigger-until-you-eat-the-Sun) for LD33 last August. It's called Have a Cow. You should check it out.
One feature I would really like here is for the camera to zoom out whenever you level up. It might help movement be easier at bigger sizes, and add to the satisfaction of growth.
The writing and mood make this one of best entries I've played yet. Great game!
Cool mechanic wish it had more puzzles.
Pretty interesting puzzle game. Movement was a little confusing because if i shift into an item i cant move but then if I shift something into me then I can move again (as the item). Also 10/10 on the plant/chair graphics.
I like the idea of changing between shapes to get through the sections and how some sections have multiple solutions. Changing to airplane controls was a little confusing to me though. It seems like you teleport to the ceiling when you use airplane.
Looks like it could be interesting. Would like to see the post-jam version if you make one.
Disappointed there wasn't more. Had a really nice mood to the game and then it abruptly ended, unless I missed something. I'm guessing time constraints were a factor. Would like to check out a post-jam version some time.
Getting a timeout when I try to play your game. Seems the site is down :(
Fun cute and short game. Really enjoyed the music as well. Only issue I have is I keep trying to press space to jump and I rocket off the map haha.
Couldn't play it well cuz I'm used to inverted mouse but still like the concept. Never going to look at my furniture the same away again.
Overall a decent puzzle game. Would have loved some background music though.
Hey nice entry. I like the growing controls but I wish you could see how many stones you had left to hit to until you lose.
Fyi, I love Rise of the Valkyries, but you should probably opt out of the audio category since it's a 3rd party asset.
Good work!
Really good look, nice music, and fun.
I'd suggest making the red/green buttons different shapes (arrows) or on different tracks. It can be a bit hard to keep track of which color is which button without other visual cues, especially on the hard difficulty since you don't really have time to look at the key.
Other than that, this is excellent!
My favorite game yet. The animation, music, sound, and mechanics are all perfect. The level design is also great. It throws you right into the hard stuff, which I love.
Also, the detail in the backgrounds is awesome! The hanging spiders, the dejected guards... I think I saw a unicorn in a cloud somewhere, but I was too zoned in to the gameplay to be sure. It all really added to the feel.
I also love the fact that the main character has different running animation for both outfits.
6 stars out of 5, 11 points out of 10, awesome work.
I love games that make you explore to find the mechanics. Sadly, I ended up beating this without any understanding of the game other than the two planets that make you rotate.
Great visuals and sound.
Don't really care for having to remember which color is which power-up, but this is otherwise perfect. I will definitely be coming back to this after the judging period.
I'd like to see an AI play this... I'm curious if it's possible or even likely to get into unwinnable situations.
"Because now it's the same but invisible" lol
Really a brain-twister to have to think about your inputs changing. Would love to see this mechanic expanded upon. Goes great with a little fourth-wall breaking humor.
Awesome work.
Excellent. It's a lot more challenging than it looks at first. :)
I know the theme is two-button controls, but I think having a third separate button for the switch would make the game a bit less frustrating. Maybe consider releasing a post-jam version with an extra button?
Anyway, great work.
A lot of fun. Looks and sounds great!
On one playthrough, I don't think I missed any bubbles, but I still died because it was too long between bubbles...
Wow. Really amazing how fun this is for something so simple. Smart design with the X-ing out of numbers on misses.
Ya know, Chrome doesn't support your game, so maybe that should have been the evil option lol
Great artwork, funny, awesome, addictive. Killed 3800+ enemies.
Controls could be a bit better - it was a little frustrating to have to left click to activate the attacks. If you could just left click to shoot fireballs and use the three buttons to immediately fire the other attacks, I think it would be even better.
The sound effects, particle effects, and screen-shake all make knocking down buildings very satisfying.
54.94 seconds! The rng makes this game very tough.
Using the moon to indicate time is great
This is a really interesting idea. I'm not sure I understand the mechanics here but this concept should be further developed. Also, the drawing suits the idea really well.
"This is Ludum Dare so we won't make you start over." Thank you. Well done.
Awesome writing and graphics and art. Especially Tina.
Having to restart every time made it take forever to beat though.
10/10 would splat Travis again
The music was by far the best part. Cool idea.
So can you take money from minorities infinitely and make infinite tanks? It seems that way. I made 100+ but didn't have nearly that many tanks for the RTS portion. RTS controls felt kind of buggy too. Could be a pretty fun dictator simulator if things work a little smoother.
Very nice!
The movement is good and fluid, but the controls are a bit frustrating. It would be nice if there were more tolerance for clicking on the green balls and/or you could just right-click in a direction to fire instead of having to click on the actual block.
Btw, I couldn't get the post-jam version to run. It was just a black screen.
Yes! Very polished, would make a great mobile game. My favorite feature was pressing up to pick up the phone for the instructions.
The music surprised me, as it contrasted with the art style.
The controls are nice, and the umbrella functioning as both attack and defense is brilliant.
Add in some progression (more enemies, obstacles, etc.) and a bit more polish, and you'd have a marketable mobile game.
I love this concept. The controls are very stiff, which is a frustrating source of difficulty. I would love to see this idea developed further and polished.
Great! Would be nice if you could see what you're actually going to say rather than just categories.
One of my favorite entries -- creative and well designed. I love the way the patrons are drawn to match their preferences. The financial system based on auctions is unique and challenging. Unfortunately, due to mismanagement, I ended up with only 1 painting in my gallery and universally hated...
One minor complaint - the responsiveness of changing the arrow directions is not great. I sent people the wrong direction a couple times.
Pretty fun multiplayer, graphics are great.
LD37 — One room (12)
Mischievous Room VR by chinnie 2016-12-16T21:27:00
Awesome experiment in VR flight! I found myself flying around the room for several minutes after catching all the faeries, just to enjoy the controls.
At first, it was a bit unsettling... Rushing toward the walls made me feel uneasy, like I was going to fall. But once I got used to it, I loved it. I hope this flight concept is developed into a full game.
Great work!
RoomZoom by TheSambassador 2016-12-16T21:07:00
I love that you actually have to move around in space rather than just teleporting everywhere, as is so common in roomscale games. I like that the game scales to the size of your room and the use of semi-transparent walls to let the player see their boundaries. The graphics are simple but perfect for showing the player what's going on, which is great for a prototype like this.
Excellent entry!
One Room With Ladders in VR by kmausser 2016-12-16T20:37:00
Cool entry. I really wanted to beat it, but it was too hard for me to do so. I got about halfway up I think.
The reflections all around you were cool, and I liked how they helped you see how far you've progressed.
FIIL Mark 37 by martincohen 2016-12-16T05:09:00
The atmosphere and art for this game was excellent
Rewind by gontzalve 2016-12-14T15:56:00
Great idea, art, and music! I love the simple mechanics. I really wanted to beat it, but unfortunately I couldn't...
I kept running into a bug where the character would run backward when I pressed spacebar, which would invariably get me killed.
Aside from that issue, this is an awesome entry!
Claim Your Color by tybantarnusa 2016-12-14T15:42:00
Great mood and fun, tense gameplay! I love that you hide the scores in the last 30 seconds - it gives the ending some suspense.
Now we need a multiplayer version!
Royal Rise (Online Multiplayer) by thebrickanator 2016-12-14T07:44:00
Ridiculously fun, I enjoyed this game a ton! Playing it during a stream turned it into a madhouse as everyone was hopping in to play. Very impressive for only having 22 hours.
The Recursive Dollhouse by Omiya Games 2016-12-14T07:24:00
Very very creative use of the theme that technically keeps you in one room the entire time. Also enjoyed that it wasn't too hard to keep track of where you were/needed to go.
Furni-Chore by AgentParsec 2016-12-14T07:20:00
Only complaint is that I didn't feel it captured the spirit of "one room" since there are many rooms but that being said it was quite fun, even though I am stuck on 14!
The Nights by Rscar 2016-12-14T07:17:00
I only made it to the 7th night :(
levelone by dietzribi 2016-12-14T07:09:00
Wanted nothing more than to get in that door!
Moving Day by Phobos001 2016-12-14T07:05:00
Relocated house on top of neighbor. Very realistic. :D
