It's so so good! The most original game I've seen so far and an excellent use of the theme. The timing of the buttons to the videos match up nicely and feel natural. Overall a really good entry, nice work!
Really fun take on snake! The game feels really smooth and polished, and it uses the theme really well.
My only suggestion would be to add another cue that the 10 seconds are about to expire, maybe the music changes or the fruit flash red or something, because it is hard to check the timer in the corner during the fast-paced game.
Overall the game is really fun and addicting, well done!
I like it! Good gameplay loop and chill vibes. It reminded me of the papa's games. Good use of the theme without making the game too stressfull. Nice work!
Always cool to see card games in Ludum Dare. Really liked the game, the mechanics were fun and I liked getting to rebuild the deck. The office setting was original and clever as well. One thing, and this might just be on me, but I couldn't figure out what the money was used for. Also the Fullscreen in WebGL doesn't work at my resolution and everything looked very stretched out. Overall I had a lot of fun and I'm impressed by how much you got done in 3 days!
Had a lot of fun. The forklift felt really fun to just drive around and the gameplay loop was solid. I liked the art and music too, and the level was well laid out. My only complaint was I found the game too hard. The timing of getting from place to place was very short, although I know you had limited options given the theme. Very small suggestion but can you add the controls for closing the menu to your list of controls cause it was not apparent that I had to hit R again to close the upgrade window. Overall really good entry!
Really well-designed game. The puzzles are really fun, they took me a few tries but were never unfair. Music, art, and overall vibe is very chill. I only wish it tied into the theme. I think it could be a great mobile game with a little more work!
Fun game, the central mechanic is fun and the upgrades are smart. I could see it running well on mobile.
Great game! I liked all the microgames, throwing the paper was my favorite. I'm impressed by the level of polish in such a short time frame. Nice work!
Really good game! The art and music are probably the best I've seen so far. The platforming is very fun too. I wish that there were save points, so I didn't have to walk all the way back every time I died, but that's really just a small thing. A cool thing for a post-jam version would be to add aging as a mechanic, not sure what that would be exactly, but if the goal is to delay aging it seems like the player aging if you don't collect a feather for a while could be interesting. Also, you should put the music on itch as an mp3 because I'd listen to it. Excellent work!
Funny game, the controls feel tight and overall driving the truck is fun. I did have problems with the road being elevated and falling off of it, and there was a weird popping sound that was a little distracting. Overall, I think it has a great gameplay loop.
Why is it so addicting?!? Seriously though, for such a simple concept it is remarkable fun. I'm very impressed. My only subjection is to remove the "random positive" rule, as it is just RNG in an otherwise skill-based game. Overall, this is a genius game. Nice work!
Genius. The concept is incredible and totally unique, it seemed like a long-lost DS game or something. I did run into some bugs with incorrect collisions and one time no platforms spawned in at the start. Overall, a really strong entry, I have no idea how you managed to program all of that in the time frame.
Smart game, does a very good job of explaining a complicated topic. I didn't fully understand what "get the min points" meant but otherwise it was very clear. I do wish it tied into the theme a bit more, but otherwise enjoyed it.
Fun game! The gameplay is simple yet fun and pausing the conveyor belts creates plenty of strategies. I did find the game spawning food that would fall at the same time meaning it was impossible to catch both, but it could be that I am just not very good. Had a lot of fun with this one, nice work!
Nice little game. Writing is excellent and the art is very nice too. The limited color palette + dithering helped match the theme really well. Only suggestion is that I do wish the dog moved a bit faster.
Love it! I've never seen this idea before and you executed it flawlessly. Art and Music are great too. One of the best games I've seen so far.
Fun game! The combat was simple yet fun and placing traps was a great addition. I was a bit confused on how to steal the enemy's supplies through. Overall, I really liked the game. nice work!
The lines were hilarious, and I liked the sound effects too. I do wish I had a better understanding of what choices would be penalizing, so the game could be more easily "won". Letting the player read and copy/paste the entire speech at the end was a genius idea I would never have thought of. Nice work!
I like the gameplay loop and the sprites are great. It's a small thing but I wish you could drag the cards out to place them instead of clicking.
Fun game! The idea is very clever and the music is great. I do wish some stuff appeared at the start of the game, as the steamroller is almost at the grandma when stuff starts to spawn.
Very clever take on theme and it's well designed. Gameplay is fun and innovative; the animations are also very high quality.
Love the game, it was a lot of fun and the idea is original. I do wish the ships responded a little more to opening routes around pirates, because they would often ignore them. Overall I had a great time with this game and it is a standout for me so far.
Cool game! Art is exceptional and gameplay is creative. I'm impressed by how much you did in the time frame.
Excellent game, great concept and you delivered well. One of the best games I've seen so far. I'll definitely be playing some more in the next few days. Nice work!
Great art and sound effects. The tutorial was clever
Great game! Very good base mechanic and the art is exceptional. Nice work!
The art is beautiful! I liked the gameplay, although I found it a bit too hard. I always died before getting any of the yellow guys or upgrades. The idea is very clever and fits the theme well. Music was great too.
Loved the game! Great interpretation of the theme and I'll play anything kaiju related. Seeing the kaiju chasing the boat through the water while it tried to escape was nerve racking. I do wish it was slightly easier to get the kaiju's attention by shooting it. Very fun and the music art was good too.
I like the art style!
Cool game! I like the concept and the first shift was really fun and surprising. I would recommend speeding the shifts up to like 10 seconds and adding a progress bar, as a minute is a long time to wait. I like the concept a lot and think it is well executed. Good job!
Really liked the game! Thought the growing mechanic was really well done, and the movement was fun. The art was nice and the music was really good. Only problem was that I fell through the grass outside and kept falling forever, but otherwise the game ran well. Overall fun and a good take on the theme. Great job!
Good game! The art is some of the best I have seen all jam, and the music is very relaxing. It is very funny and I like the way you used the theme. Great job!
Cool game! I like the atmosphere a lot and the gameplay is innovative. My main suggestion is to give the player more of an idea of what the stats beyond shield and energy do. Also UI wise I would label the on/off switches to say if they raise or lower. I really liked the use of audio feedback, and the audio in general. Good job!
Fun game! The gameplay is both fun and innovative. I love the art, music, and sound effects. Great job!
Nice game! The levels were all really fun and built upon each other very well. I like the art and the music a lot too. My only suggestion would be to speed up the enemy spawning in the later levels. Overall a very good entry. Great job!
Fun game! I like the mechanics and hiding from the guys is fun. I also liked how you can move the walls. Only recommendations would be to give the player more energy and reverse the order of the levels. Liked this game a lot, great job!
Fun game! I like how the pizza speeds up as you get higher and higher. That slo-mo cam at the end made me laugh out loud. Great job!
Cool game! I love the idea, and the physics work just like I want them too. I did find the levels too hard (I had to look on here for the solution to 2 and couldn't figure out 3), and I had trouble with the camera. Overall I like the mechanics a lot and the music and graphics combine for a cool vibe. Good job!
Really, really fun game. Love the idea and the gameplay is very addictive. I like the idea of the floor shifting too. Only suggestion is that it is a little hard (It took me 15 mins to get 700k and then I fell off the edge lol). This was a standout entry, great job!
Cool game! Very ambitious and I like the idea of using cards. The art and music are very good and create a great vibe. My only suggestion is to make roads a permanently available card, because right now it is too hard to connect the city. Overall, I love the way the pieces interact and I think the game is a very strong entry. Great job!
Fun game! Very clever and it felt satisfying to knock the building down. I liked the little particles the pieces broke in to. I wish there were more levels, but I understand the time constraint. Great job!
Fun game! Good concept and I like how there are multiple styles of building. Good music too. Only suggestion would be to make it harder. The sound of the pieces snapping together is so satisfying. Great job!
Brilliant. Incredible concept and great execution. I have no idea how you completed this all in 48 hours. Gameplay is great, art is great, music is great, everything is great. Only suggestion would be that I found points to be given out too slowly. Overall really strong entry. Great job!
Really smart game. A brilliant concept that is very well executed. The graphics look good and the way the letters fall is very nice. Really funny text and gameplay. Only recommendation would be that being able to hold the spacebar to quick drop letters would be nice, but I understand it might go against the spirit of the game. Great job!
I absolutely love it. Great and challenging gameplay. It feels very satisfying to get one of the robots. Some of the best art I have seen so far. Good music and sound effects. All around outstanding. Great job!
Cool game! The idea is very creative, and the game seems like it must have been very complicated to code so I am impressed. I love the art, music, and general vibe of the game. I would recommend increasing what the values do by a lot, because I had trouble noticing the differences. Also I would not let the player evolve extinct species. Overall very creative and chill game, Great job!
What a game! Super fun and needs a lot of strategy. I love the art and music. The game does a good job of teaching you as you go. Lots of great little details (the pizza falling out of the box, ect) that make for a great vibe. Only thing I would recommend is a horse falling-down animation. Great job!
Fun gameplay and great art/music. Found the bosses a bit too difficult though. Liked the mood of the game. Good job!
Fun game! I love the loop and getting everything to balance just right is very satisfying. Menus are well polished and everything feels really good. Only bit of advice would be to have the 3d art match the very good 2d art a little more, but I understand the restraints of a jam. Overall a really good game. Great job!
Great game! The art is some of the best I have seen this jam. The music is also good. The idea of the tv-controls is creative. Gameplay is really fun, but I did feel like sometimes I would lose out of nowhere. Overall really good game in all categories. Great job!
Cool game! The gameplay is fun and addictive. The art is also very cute. My only recommendations would be to tweak the spawning of objects, because they would sometimes drop right on my head. I would also speed up the deflation of the balloon a little. Overall cute and fun game. Great job!
Really good game! Super fun gameplay that got more challenging as the game went on. I like the minimalist art a lot. Music is nice and relaxing. The game is a good difficulty. I think this concept would work really well on mobile. Definitely a game I will return too. Great job!
Good game! Clever idea and fun gameplay. My only suggestions are to lower gravity a bit, change the explanation of the powers to the numbers (ie "press 1" instead of "press one") to help the player understand how to activate it, and to make the solution to the cloud level a bit more obvious (I couldn't figure it out). I really liked the music and the level design is strong. Your idea is ambitious and well done. Great job!
(Spoiler warning)
1. I was very surprised when the game changed from a card based stat balancing game, I didn't expect it coming at all. 2. I think that the gameplay was the best use of the theme, because I had to figure out what to do and the goals kept changing. 3. I really enjoyed the game, but I would say that fun could use a bit of improvement in the middle section. I got stuck on the snake game for a very long time because it is too hard.
This game was really exceptional, I think it was the best use of the "unstable" theme I have seen so far and really excelled in almost every aspect. As I said above I had problems with the snake game, and I think making an option to turn off the shaky-blurry cam would be good, as it was hard for me to see and kind of gave me a headache. Otherwise the game excelled in all categories. Great job!
Absolutely hilarious. Love the gameplay and the idea is so clever. Only thing I would recommend is to make the upgrades a bit cheaper. Really really fun and creative game. Great job!
I really like the art! Great animations on the character. The whole idea is really original and clever, and it is done well. I had a bit of trouble with the main menu (took me a while to figure what button started the game) and I found the levels a bit too hard. Overall very good looking and fun game. Great job!
Really good game. Loved the gameplay and it felt good to win a battle. There is so much content, I am very impressed. My only suggestion is to explain why people "left the party" (i.e. are they dying in battle, starving, or something else) because I couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong. Overall, a very compelling 4x game with a ton of content! Great job!
Interesting game! The falling-city idea is clever and I haven't seen it before. The art is also good. I do wish there was a way to choose what to build (if there is I couldn't find it). Overall fun and creative game, great job!
Interesting game! I really liked the art and the music, and I think it is a good concept. I had trouble figuring out what the people wanted though, they kept not supporting the bills no matter what I chose. The little sound effects from the tv are a great touch. Good job!
What a game! Really great classic strategy gameplay that felt fleshed out and complex. I think the story and world-building are cool too. I do wish that I understood what money, food, and manufacturing did a bit more, and for some reason it wouldn't let me do fullscreen. Overall your game really impressed me and I can't wait to play it again. This is easily one of my favorites of this jam. Great job!
Fun game! I haven't seen a racing game in the jam yet, and there is a lot in this one given the time-constraints. Gameplay is fun and voice over was a great addition. I did have some problems with the AI (they got stuck running into a wall over and over at the very start of the game), but I honestly think the racing is fun enough if there was a timer or points or something added I wouldn't care about a lack of opponents. Overall really fun and ambitious game. Great job!
Good game! The art is beautiful, and the music is good too! Gameplay is really fun (although I wish the islands sunk a bit more frequently, only one island sunk for me and it was one I barely used). Overall it has a nice chill vibe and relaxing gameplay. Great job!
Adorable game! Really liked all the art and the animations were really cute. The gameplay was really original and fun, and everything in the game is really well-polished. The only recommendation I have is to scale difficulty a bit more, because I thought the game was a bit too easy and then all of a sudden became very hard. Overall a really fun and cute game. Great job!
Really like the graphics and the animations in this game. Running between the four areas to fix the problems is a great idea and is well executed. I did run into a problem where I couldn't push the rods down if there were more than one up, but otherwise the game ran great. Found it fun and it had a good energy. Great job!
I really like the art style, voice over, and general mood of the game. I had a lot of trouble completing the missions though, either I would run out of time or I would do it right and still get fired. I can tell there is a lot more to the game, but I sadly couldn't get past the first mission :( . Good job on the look of the game though, it really has a unique and cool vibe to it!
Fun game! I like how intuitive the controls feel. And I could repeat an idea multiple times, which is impressive for a physics game. I found levels 7-8 a bit too hard (I couldn't finish 8) but otherwise I thought the levels were a good difficulty and built on each other really well. Great job!
This game is exceptional. Really smart puzzles that require some thought, and they all build upon each other really well. The art style is also really cool and minimalistic. I really like how the recipes are consistent and how mechanics introduced in previous levels come back. My only problem was that I couldn't solve the level where you had to get 4 orange circles and there are all of those open/shut doors (though I think that was more on me than the game). Overall your game is very creative and fun, and I think it would work really well as a mobile game. Great job!
Your game is very well designed, and the gameplay feels balanced and very polished. There was a good amount of strategy needed, and I thought it was a great difficulty. The only suggestion I have is that the rams and the dirty sheep are too similar colored, so I kept sending the rams to the washing station by accident. Overall it is a very fun and creative game! The music in your game is also very good. Great job!
Fun game! Great concept and it plays really well. The commits are funny and I liked how they were in a different order every time. It made the game very re-playable. This was one of the more original games I have played this jam, and I really enjoyed it. Great job! (High score 210)
Great work! The gameplay was really fun, and I was amazed by how many levels you were able to make in such a short amount of time! They got more challenging as it went along, but I was able to complete the game. The little touches are what really makes this game stand out, the way the pill says wheeee and ouch made me smile every time. I will also support any game that uses the mouse cleverly, which you did a phenomenal job at. Great job!
Cool game! Really liked the graphics and the music was relaxing. I found the puzzles fun but a little challenging, and I was able to eventually complete them (most of the challenge was just hitting all the keys in the mars rover level as they are very close by each other). I thought the theme was very funny and creative. Overall really unique and fun game. Great job!
What a wild ride (or rocky rhode) that was! Very impressed with how you made 5 completely different games in 3 days. I couldn't predict what was going to happen next. The art was probably the best I have seen this jam and the music was also top-tier. Also great voice acting! Gameplay was fun in all scenes, and I liked the story. Overall excellent work and I wish there was more! Great job!
Really impressed by this game. The gameplay is original, I don't think I have every seen this concept before, and it works really well. The game is well balanced and feels very re-playable. It is also really polished, (Good UI, sound effects, tutorial, voice acting, etc) which is very impressive given the 72 hour time limit. The only problem I ran into is if you change the controls the bottom-screen UI gets glitched out and is a massive text box of all your custom controls. Overall your game is very innovative and I really enjoyed it, great job!
Cool game! Really fun puzzle mechanics and I liked how they got more complex as the game went on. They were a good difficulty (I could complete them but had to try multiple times). I would definitely recommend adding that the space key resets the level to your description, because I spent a good while having to restart the whole game if I made a mistake. Overall, really funny and well executed idea. Great job!
When I saw this I thought someone had made a game just for me, and I was not disappointed at all! The gameplay was really fun and just the right amount of complexity for this type of game. Trying to balance out the city also meant some strategy was needed, which was fun. The real highlight was the music, and the moment where everything changes was probably my favorite moment of any game this jam. My only suggestion is I found it a bit hard to move the people around and ended up moving them all in a massive clump, which made it hard to get to the specific trees and stuff I needed. Really great work and this game is definitely a highlight of the jam for me, great job!
Best game I've played of the jam so far! So creative and I have no idea how you made the text files work with the game but it was amazing. Really funny writing and an interesting story. Such a well thought out game, it's amazing you built it in a weekend. Only problems I ran into were that Security code X9 wasn't working for me, so I had to restart the game. Also the game crashed at what I assume was the end, but because of the format of the game I couldn't tell if this was intentional or not. The way your game worked was like nothing I have ever played before. I'm really impressed and would definitely pay for an expanded version. Great job!
Really fun! I love how, like any great platformer, mechanics are introduced as the levels go on. Good amount of strategy involved and I liked how the music matched the game's fast-paced nature. Only problem I had was sometimes my character would get stuck on the walls, which was a problem in the level you have to fall through the hole. Otherwise, the levels were fun enough I played through it twice. Also I liked getting to choose what keys to use at the start. Great job!
Liked the writing a lot and the art was good. Music was great and very soothing. Had some trouble with the fights, and the retry feature wasn't working for me (it would send me back to the house but I couldn't leave or go to sleep). Really enjoyed the vibe of the game, great job!
Cool game! Loved the mood and the music was great. The lighting effects were really good and the puzzles were intuitive and just the right difficulty. The writing was also really good, and I liked the way the words typed out with sound effects. Great job!
Great game! I love the art, and the music is truly incredible. Together they create a great chill vibe. Good gameplay loop and I like the achievements and unlocks system. I got stuck on the cat breeder mission because I couldn't figure out what dish it wanted (tried ordinary and delicious fish soup), so I would recommend making the missions a little more clear. Lots of little details in the game, the way the fire in the cooking pot lights up & the subtle character animations are really well done. Good job!
Great game! Really fun & addicting gameplay loop and I love the art. The slightly blurred background is a great touch. I would suggest adding that you get points from the cat eating the cans to your description, because for a while I thought the points were the number of cans placed. Love the animations on the cat & great music. Good job! (High score 121)
LD52 — Harvest (7)
Halloween Harvest by muriel 2023-01-14T02:20:43Z ♥ 1
This game slaps. Very good gameplay loop and I think it gets more difficult at a very good pace. So many small details I think are briliant like limiting each box to two pumpkins. The reload animation is also incredibly smooth. An absolute blast to play (I died on level 7), highlight of the jam for me.
Damn Rats - LD52 by mr_lazy 2023-01-14T02:00:58Z ♥ 1
Simple but fun game. I like how it forces you to think about how to swat multiple rats for max efficiency. I did find the swatters hitbox too small though. Also slapping sound effect is great.
Erntehelfer by th1z 2023-01-13T05:16:02Z ♥ 0
I see you had a very similar idea to us lol. I liked the upgrades and regenerating level, but found the turn radius a little too big. I agree about opting out of graphics and audio as others have said.
Attack of the Mutant Veggies by PizzArt64 2023-01-13T05:04:29Z ♥ 1
Fun game! The gameplay loop is very solid, though I wish it was either faster-paced or the enemies dropped more money. The game has a lot of character and I loved the cutscene at the start. Nice!
The Time Traveler's Garden by Drizzle Games 2023-01-13T04:49:55Z ♥ 6
Really strong entry. As everyone I'm sure has said, planting the enemies is very clever. The art and general mood of the game is exceptional, and I love the switch from the kitchen to the ruined future. I will say I found thecombat a little too hard, I would have liked to be able to swing in a direction independent from the direction I'm moving if that makes any sense.
PS: It may be a random detail, but the door-swinging animation is so damn satisfying.
Rabbit Harvest by KlinsmannHengles 2023-01-12T05:19:11Z ♥ 1
Cute game and good atmosphere! The sound effects are nice, but I think some background music would've been a good addition.
Tractor Tony's Pro Reaper by Fabian Denter 2023-01-12T05:08:29Z ♥ 1
First off, the graphics are absolutely stunning. The game is very fun and the music is great. Two small notes are that I wish that there was something to help me keep track of what letters I have collected, and that I wish the camera was fixed to the tractor (occasionally it would remain to high while falling and the tractor wouldn't be visible). Overall a very good game!
