Is it even possible to eat the fly? My high score was 615 and I swear I got the frog and fly to collide a few times but nothing ever happened. I started to wonder if it was just set dressing... all in all this is adorable and complete, and another great PICO-8 package.
I got third! Mostly because I stopped bothering to shoot enemies and just flew right through them (until eventually this tactic failed and i died). I think I never got a score multiplier though, that was always at zero.
lol thank science it's color coded, my mastery of advanced math is not so good if i were to identify them any other way!!
Oof, it's very difficult! I believe I understood the instructions, it took a second try to really "get" it. It would be helpful if there were a visual indicator of which rings were inaccessible at any given time, for example if I had a tower on the board then the outermost ring would be a different color (or missing completely). But it's also compo, and there is just never enough time!!
Pretty darn cute, and mobile friendly, too. Love that!
Definitely one of my top 5 favorites in the JAM category. The core gameplay is solid and from there everything is juiced up in a really satisfying way.
Oh, this is so polished!! I didn't get very far because I couldn't figure out how to rotate the rooms and kept running out of time, but the sounds is good and it looks great.
It looks like the character sprite is stretched out vertically in the game, but has square pixels in the art on the itch page. Was that a deliberate design decision?
I like the look of this a lot, and maybe this could even be adapted to a fun tabletop solitaire game! Just need a 6x6 board, a bunch of tiles and a six sided die...
Very high difficulty, haha! I was never able to fill up my inventory before the controls seemed to stop working and inevitably I'd crash into the planet or the ship would just float along doing whatever it wanted instead of following the mouse. Cool sfx and mood!
Great demo! lol i'm a bug 5ff72.gif
I love that the ride passengers just emit streams of emoji nonsense, talking your ear off the entire ride XD
Very difficult! It looks great though, cool scenery and character art.
5/5 for THEME, very creative way to address it lol
lol I couldn't get past the 3rd or 4th level but it was pretty funny. I love the old scifi tv show away mission vibe.
Maybe it was my mouse but I just couldn't move the points fast enough and the ball moves SO FAST. I got stuck on level 3. Very cool, very INNOVATIVE game design though!!!
I liked it! I wish I had a score so I could brag about it, but I got to the fourth level, I think.
210 !!
Pretty happy about it. As far as I can tell, there isn't a reason to use the mouse except that the shoot button is bound to it. Maybe I missed it, but it would be nice if I could have played with just keyboard alone.
Looks cool, great concept, just a bit too difficult for me - level 2 was too much and I couldn't get past it.
The controls were confusing at first, but I figured them out pretty well i think.
Pretty cool! It was definitely moody. I didn't beat it but the scanner is a cool mechanic.
Worked fine for me in firefox. It's a tricky puzzler, very cute and a creative way to use flocking and stuff. I hope you get high marks for innovation!
Nice sprite work and the puzzles made me think. Those flowers grow really fast! I made it to the end, though. GG!
6700!! I probably could have gone longer but the "transparency texture ghost" spawned directly on top of me and killed me instantly 😢
It was better now that the controls are fixed but goodness it is difficult! I didn't get far but it's awesome to finish a compo game with both 3D and music-timing elements!
Very challenging! Mood is on point. I didn't get far before I started racking up violations but it was cool to push the buttons and tell the ships where to go XD
When I started the itch web version the first time, none of the clothes spawned and I was forced to "complete" with nothing in my suitcase... but it only happened that one time and I cannot reproduce the error.
This is cute! I like the look and there's lots of little interactive things.
I didn't beat it, but I got a couple levels in. No issues on windows firefox.
The mechanics worked pretty well! And it's a complete game in the compo. Great job <3
Supremely difficult! It took all 11 arrows on the second level to kill the single zombie, and the next level with three zombies and 1 arrow isn't enough to kill any of them, so that's where I got stuck. The game is humorous and looks cool too. High marks for sound design XD
Attractive art style! I didn't have to think hard to grasp the controls. Not sure if jumping did much but it was cool to see cube guy bounce all over the place!
Usually when I don't know what to do in a game, I get very frustrated. But this time, I decided to treat it as though figuring out the gameplay was a puzzle itself. I was rewarded for that and got to make lemonade <3
I, too, ran into the "high resolution" bug playing the web build on my 4K display. I was able to click around when i moved the window to a smaller display.
It's colorful, I didn't really understand what I was doing, but I got some things built <3
I had some trouble with the web build (couldn't look behind me or downwards) but it looks cool and has a big mood!
It's a little game with a lot of character and goodness I love procedural content. I probably could have done better if I played with a little more strategy but it was cool seeing how far I could go. Good jam game
This is supremely silly and I adore it for that.
This was cute and fun and it's a shame I can't rate it :,-)
I'm going to interpret the fidgety camera as an extreme dedication to the PSX/N64 aesthetic, which I liked a lot. This is a great product of a jam, things mostly work, it has a beginning and an end (I think?) and cute character art and more polish than a jam game could expect to have.
Pretty cute! I couldn't beat it, but I love that the player character has a big fluffy hair-do. Played in 4K fullscreen, no issues.
I got 14 points! My first round I didn't understand that the little guys were bad, I thought they were my little pals following me around the grid...
Fun and frantic!
Very cool! Don't forget to play and rate other folks' games, too!
I got to 1299m, turbo break was my favorite part.
There were several "platformers with boundaries around them" games this round but this is the best "platformers with boundaries around them" game in the compo imho. I beat every level, some were tricky!!
I think doritos are my favorite flavor of space ship now, this was nice to look at. Also I love that the controls are not complicated at all.
Gosh I love procedural content in jam games, that's always so cool. It's compo, you know there's plenty you could have elaborated on if you had more time. I think it's a good idea and well executed and just the right bite-size for a jam and folks that are really into the genre will be rewarded with plenty of content
lol why are they fighting in hot tubs??? This was great, really cute art, and I didn't fully figure out how damage was calculated. I can see how it would be a frantic nightmare with a second player XD
GG
Tight demo, it seems like everything works! Best of luck if you choose to elaborate on it
Big fan of mice and explosives, this was really cute and cool. Inspired by a classic!
tooltips over the symbols was all I was missing
I love the "no button" control scheme, only have to maneuver well. Cool game GG!
I think I survived 10 days, this game has a cool aesthetic. I had a dog on my island! But no opera singer...
I had no performance problems in firefox.
That was silly and fun! I think I got caught in a loop but it was humorous and I'm glad you had a fun jam.
It's so easy to overscope in a jam! Better luck next time!!
Pretty tough! I got squished between the map and the bounding box a few times, it wasn't always enemies that got me, but often the environment. Monochrome looks pretty good and the red highlights look great, they're big enough I can see the enemies even if they're mostly white.
I loved it. Really liked the tunes.
I am grateful you made the difficulty low, I could feel that you gave me a high tolerance for error. If the timing were more exact I would fail in the first couple measures and never see the ending.
I hope this is the winner for audio category!
I did terribly lol, I think I killed 40 mobs? Perhaps I can't read fast enough to understand what's good to keep and what isn't. I love the look of it, though.
I love wario ware in space, what a brilliant idea.
Maybe I was doing it wrong, but every time I fulfilled an order and hit "next client" the client would curse at me, even if the box was full of what they asked for. I don't know what I was doing wrong, but no client left my shop happy, they were all angry.
It looks cool though, and it's got a lot of polish for a jam game. GG!!
Please tag me if you get the web build working again!
I didn't have any performance problems with the web build 👍
This is the best looking game I've seen in the jam I think, everything is very carefully designed. I couldn't get the cats to go in tub though, they just sat on it.
GG
This is one of the better AI games, most are just too open ended. This is scoped way down and makes sense.
@jerem-watts I liked the story, I can't say I really understood it, but I liked it, and the character art was charming. I liked the ending. GG!
Gosh the little veggie's faces are definitely my favorite part!!
I love the car movement mechanics, that's pretty great, and I do love games where I can ram bad guys as an offensive move. Well done <3
jam games making me cry today i guess...
What an adventure! Had one adventure where I just kept adding "bad" memories until it was pretty much the whole mind...
3622!
I like the simplicity, things really just work as they're supposed to, and of course the sound and music stands out a lot.
Very cute art style and characters! I could not complete the second level, it would not allow me to return the pillow to the coffin even though I navigated back to it successfully (barely alive despite trying to place the bookshelf strategically).
It's a big game for a short jam, so great job! I would be more inclined to continue playing after multiple deaths if I could quickly respawn without the long exposition each time.
Cool swiping technique to kill the ghosts! I had fun, but I didn't get a big high score XD
It's a lot of fun to see ideas that are different from other games and I haven't seen another game like this in LD54
When I glanced at the controls and saw there were only four buttons I had high hopes, and I was rewarded with a clever puzzle game. I managed to get just over 2000 without much strategy, and I know I can do better when I try again. Of course there's room for juice but this is compo and this is a great compo entry. Loved it.
This is good! tic is tricky and this is a good, working game in a short time with a cool, original concept that was executed well.
If I could change anything (other than the music) it would be to have control over the character with directional controls.
Can you upload a web build? I'm pretty sure ren'py has html export.
I'd love to give this game a try, please tag me if you compile a version I can play in a browser!
The LD embed is broken, I suggest you just remove it and direct people to the itch page.
I love the look of this super cute 3D tangrams puzzle! Somehow I was able to zoom the camera in, but then I couldn't zoom back out, which made some of the key legend inside the case unreadable. It may have been caused when I went fullscreen using the itch web build? Not sure. Good jam game!
I didn't get very far, but I really liked the character sprites. Syncing the lazer to the music was very clever!
I empathize completely with the bubble pets. They're just like me, sitting around waiting to be fed and getting mad and exploding when I'm not fed...
I did my best but the light flashing on and off constantly is too distracting, so I had to stop after collecting just one or two things. Is there a way to turn it on and leave it on?
gosh there are so many good compo games this round. This is another one of them. Maybe I cheesed it a little bit? On some patterns you can just park your ship in a safe spot and still get tons of bonus for being close to the red dot spawn locations.

This is adorable and I haven't seen a concept like this one yet (specifically where you *pilot* the playable space)! Smart idea and good execution. I look like a badass in my shades <3
This is cute and really polished. Some of the puzzles were over my head, so I didn't get to the end, but it's a good looking product and a great jam game.
What a thoughtful and detailed jam game, probably just the right scope for a jam and it has everything a loot goblin could want
Looked good in 4K! I'll be honest I had no idea what I was doing but the colors and effects were pretty, good job <3
wow epic mood!
No bugs, adorable, functionally complete, great job. This is one of the better executed "cooking" jam games I've played
I hope the sound effects were as fun to make as they were to hear
What a cool concept! I had fun flopping my tether around
I feel silly, this is one of the first games I rated, but forgot to comment on it! This is an excellent compo game and one of my favorites this round. <3 <3 <3
this is great character art, they look soooo cool. If this gets adapted to a comic book I want to read it!
A most excellent entry! Lots of cool furniture, I'm jealous. I want that house and that decor.
Grampas sure are their own breed huh?
I adore the character art.
I struggled with drawing the box, it really, *really* wants you to draw from the top left to the bottom right and my instinct most of the time was the opposite, which doesn't work very well.
Cute puzzler! I love the little kitty guy and his quest for the lightning
This was really silly and fun - like some other folks I got immediately wrecked and not sure how I died, even when I figured out I had to bash the report card. I like the boss-rush attitude though
It's true, in compo, there is just never enough time. I thought you did a good job and it's cool to look at and very moody.
lol i love how mean it is
Lots of mechanics in a compo game, ambitious and it paid off. I don't worry too much about sound anyway. GG
I made it to the end and all I lost was my head! Hahaha
That's a cool, hyper-specific concept and it works perfectly with the theme. I found it too difficult, but it is functional and goodness it has mood!
Please publish a web build!
I managed to get it to hang after I simultaneously rotated and placed a piece. At least, I think it was that. I had also just grabbed a package and moved it backwards so it wouldn't fall into the fire XD
This really works well though, good controls, I thought it was fun.
I could have used some checkpoints but this was fun and silly and that's my jam.
It looks nice and it plays nice! If I had to complain about something it would be the lack of any visual confirmation that you're being damaged.
Adorable. Certainly one of my favorites already. If I could use gamepad instead of keyboard + mouse it would be perfect.
This was delightful and frankly, perfect in every way. Loved it.
Super cute, very polished entry and I appreciate all the goofy humor.
I struggled to find my feet and hands as my body became a jumble of limbs several times, but it's funny!
Oh geez when those vertical lazers came on my SPACE got really LIMITED. Neat game, I didn't understand what everything did but it looked cool and played nice.
I got 5840! Is that good?
It was rough, I ran out of sand almost immediately and the coconuts kept spawning the same place where the badguys spawned!
Very cute game. Well done.
I thought it was fun! The jump sound effects are great.
I got 2970, eventually I ran out of food and it was just a matter of keeping the mean meatball on the other side of the blue block until the walls killed me. It's good and all it's missing is a keyboard shortcut to restart after you die.
I would like if it would end my game and restart if I run out of words - I got one word in and the remain letters were `v`, `l`, `m`, and `k`... there's no word made exclusively from those letters and I have to refresh the page to try again.
The style is adorable, and maybe I don't understand how to play, but I enjoyed poking at it.
Would love it if the reset were instant! Very good game. I accept that level 15 stumped me and there are too many games to rate to spend another 20 minutes on it XD
Everything looks and feels good. Solid compo entry
I couldn't play this because the web player wouldn't work - try uploading to itch? The ludum dare site game embeds are fragile.
Smart, smart, smart. Small scope, great execution, that's how to do it, good job!
Pretty cute! I adore this for its simplicity. In my efforts to avoid collisions I had ships running really fancy twisty loopy paths, and it worked for a while - until inevitably a ship spawns at the corner and bumps into another ship or the environment.
lots of fun
This guy! Fantasy consoles not good enough for you, gotta make a game for a REAL console! Well done.
I got around 400 points, mostly taking hull damage when asteroids spawned on the opposite side of the screen such that it would be impossible to reach them in time before losing a man. But this is a compo entry and cool as hell. Looks great. Nice touch that the web version includes the CRT shader.
I got a win, a loss, and a draw over three playthroughs which is pretty cool. Sometimes the right strategy is just to stand still for a few rounds while the enemies stumble over each other! I thought it was fun. Looks like folks have already pointed out some opportunities for UI improvements (a keybind for "next turn" would be really convenient).
I like it a lot. It's really hard to get something elegant done inside the compo time restrictions but this is perfectly scoped and well executed.
I don't have much to contribute, I think I got 5 or 6 puzzles in and enjoyed it. The flowers + pots theme is way nicer to play and look at than "warehouse worker and crates". Nice twist with adding floor space as a game mechanic!
I thought this was cute and well put-together for a compo!! Great job. Maybe consider adding a "close" button to the window with the tutorial text? I accidentally started defragging before I figured out how to close the window (you have to hit a button on the task bar???) and played the first 20 seconds of the game with teh giant tutorial window in the way
Made to the end and I had to "cheese" it a little bit by rapidly pressing buttons when I felt stuck. This is a great game, really cool effects in a TIC game! <3
I liked the writing, the transmissions between ship and docks were funny!
Within a second or two of getting control of the character, just walking around near where the character spawns (I'm playing the version embedded into the page you're reading this comment on)Screenshot 2023-10-01 181245.png
The mood was moody! I didn't get very far because I had to start at the beginning every time I died and I died a *lot*. Congrats on a complete entry!
I couldn't figure out the controls but the character art was cute and the concept was pretty neat
i like the body guns!
this brings back memories!!
-75 and I enjoyed every minute of it
lol I love my little donut hands twirling the wheel around like a silly person. I hit the walls a lot but the matrix/faceoff/johnwoo slowdown was very clever and cool
i loved the jokes XD
lol i love the whiny customer sfx
wah. wah. weh. wah.
i loved the art style
Don't forget to play and rate other folks' games!!
Please upload a web build!
The difficulty was mostly due to the poor performance, but the colorful art and cute style was neato. I drove around for a while and managed to pick up a passenger, but I never did discover where to drop them off.
Good first attempt! I didn't really understand what was going on, and after I got a little bit into the level the blobs got me and slowed me down. I threw all my cards at them, then the blobs disappeared - but after that I still couldn't move!
brilliant, just a really well executed compo game. I got less than 10k in the end, but it was a ton of fun and an original game
Please upload a web build!
I *think* I got pretty far but there was a room I knew I couldn't get through without a gamepad and a lot more free time. (the vertical room with the floor of spikes and the series of 1x1 blocks that you had to jump-dash to climb)
Platforming seemed really solid though the inertia(?) of the player character was frustrating (like everything was slightly icy/slippery) and I'd stick to walls even if I didn't jump against them first.
Someone probably already said it but this is 5/5 audio for the bangin' tunes
I could only play the web version, it's weird but the camera keeps spinning around the car making it impossible to see where I'm going - I assume it doesn't do that on the download version judging by the praise in the comments.
So I couldn't really get far into the game but the mood and graphics were rad as heck!
I must have failed to understand the win condition, because it didn't seem like any arrangement of the body parts on level two qualified as a success, so I could not continue. That said the visuals are cool and the mood and music are good.
looked and played great, good vibe
i adore the fruity little sprites
You're asking way too much from players to require them to review a powerpoint presentation or watch a youtube video to learn how to play a game they won't play for more than a handful of minutes!! I jumped straight into the action and didn't know what I was doing. I figured out the general controls quickly, but the objectives were inscrutable so I just gave up after flying around for a bit (visited the hens, cow, and apple trees)
The scene is pretty and the controls are solid though, and the colorful graphics and cute assets were very pleasant!
it's pretty, and definitely moody!
SO SILLY loved it

i thgouth the sprites were really cool and the premise was original and cute
lol this was hilarious but take audio ranking off your entry because I have high confidence you did not record those clips yourself XD
This was great, I think it would be awesome if you doubled the truck speed and used the developer mouse features to place the arrows! I struggled with the cursor because it would skip over unplaceable tiles which, on the early levels especially, has the effect of moving my cursor from one end of the screen to the other at times
that said compo is hard and pico-8 is already challenging, and this is a fully formed game loop with original mechanics, fantastic job
my pigeons are famous because they never once failed a contract <3 gg good game definitely 5/5 mood
nice and moody, mouse was wayyyy too sensitive and i didn't figure out how to reduce the sensitivity
those dastardly packages! cool art style. 5/5 theme i haven't seen many ppl make the objective to prevent a delivery
i figured out how to rapid-fire by hitting both RMB and space a bunch, which was cool
Maybe I failed to notice something in the UI (game is pretty frantic) but sometimes it felt like i could do two deliveries before returning to the store and sometimes I could only deliver one, and I couldn't really predict if I could deliver twice in one go or not.
that said i liked it, it was fun, and the colors and sprites are great
5/5 humor because i wrote a dirty joke on my letter
was really neat to fold it up, hurl it, then unfold it again at the end (spoiler alert)
i enjoyed it quite a bit, and it was nice not to have to worry about altitude
i liked the puzzles but i struggled with the ladder. i like the mechanic, I think it's novel because i can't think of any games with ladder puzzles like these!
i thought it was charming and a good execution of the concept in a very short amount of time, and it is a full package even if it's not frilly
looks great, feels great, love everything about it
tooooo funny lol ggwp
i thought i was driving around in circles at first several times before i realized the levels were procedurally generated and I was just seeing the same set of corners and parked cars a few times in a row
i loved the tunes and the aesthetic
so simple, so silly, loved it
adorable! cabbage sub forever
the art and mood are on point i love it
haha great compo entry, i thought the music and seizure button was humorous
what an 5/5 INNOVATIVE pico puzzler! super cute game, i too made a pico-8 cart this time and i too didn't have time to make music for it.
great job awesome compo entry
On the web build on a 4k display while fullscreened the transitions between levels (the zig zag black bars) stay at the bottom of the screen during play and converge in the center of the screen during level transitions
i liked this little platformer though the character art is whimsical and great <3
on a 4k display the mouse's dialogue is offscreen: Screenshot 2023-05-08 235911.png
I figured it out anyway, super cute! Great concept too
this was so comfy and fun to play just a cozy little delivery truck delivering around this cozy little town <3
the bgm is a banger, whole game is pro grade good job
brilliant, everything brilliant 5/5 mood 5/5 humor
great job! drinking the beer was my favorite part <3
it's like animal crossing but you get to kidnap the villagers! great compo entry
that was SILLY and i loved it
hahah it's hard! gg lots of fun
i didn't really understand what to do, but i liked switching between two characters with different abilities that was cool
banger tune and awesome vfx
proceduraly generated content in the compo is one of my favorite things, this is good!
i love how hopelessly ridiculous it is and how deliberately it's being silly. that's my jam <3 GG
haha my man in the back throws the packages out wayyy too hard i have to drive past the goals a van length or so otherwise the package gets launched into one end of the goal and out the other
mouse movement is a cool mechanic
instant classic it should come with new operating systems like pinball used to come with windows
lol it wasn't until the end I realized that I was *delivering* mail and not just running down the street robbing people's mailboxes!! i thoguth it was delightful
great compo entry, it was too hard for me and I didn't get far but there's quite a bit of depth and complex movement mechanics, which i love
it was really difficult, but this is an exciting product for compo! GG
I especially loved the dangerous drone-eating hawk <3 <3 <3
cool to see a working game in 6 hours, that's tough!! I wish I could enlarge the screen a bit, the tiles are incredibly tiny on 4k displays (web version)
i didn't do that great but it was really fun! i couldn't help but imagine it with touch controls and playing on a tablet. excellent compo entry <3
please publish a web build!
i found it very difficult but i'm also so uncoordinated i fall out of my chair sometimes. This is a masterpiece for the compo constraints loved it good job!
Please publish a web build!
i like all the cool stuff that you got in there for a compo entry that's awesome as heck. its so tough to add real depth in a game with those constraints and you did it!
instant classic
excellent excellent
this is a great one, i didn't get it at first but then i got to planet hopping pretty good!
5/5 humor a chicken threw a hammer into my basket, smashing an egg, and then it pooped an egg into the basket to replace it
rockin soundtrack, i struggled with the level that followed the tutorial but its a cool jam game <3
i love the water effects that's so neat
I thought it was adorable but I got speared by spikes frequently because they are pretty much indistinguishable from the harmless background foliage.
Please publish a web build!
I played with a couple AI players but couldn't figure out how to end my turn ("evoke darkness" did nothing), this game seems well over my head. I liked the isometric viewport a lot and it was neat that I could download the game state as JSON, that's a first in my experience with LD!
the polish on this one is wonderful. a delightful chill adventure in kawaiispace <3 loved teh character design and art
LOL my keyboard apparently doesn't support pressing four simultaneous apha keys so I struggled (more than what I suspect is usual) with the controls but this is hilarious, kudos well done
Please publish a web build!
Please publish a web build!
It reminded me of Papers Please but without the atmosphere of dread, so I liked it quite a lot
i got 56!!! good job on the compo!!!
Please publish a web build!
Please publish a web build!
i like the minimalism, i wasn't confused by anything and if i were a better driver i'd have done great XD
Incredible. I found "easy" pretty challenging and I bet there's a crowd that loves nightmare mode. The "delivery" gave me a chuckle!!
I love this for a lot of reasons but the biggest reason is i can't think of any game like it
5 star mood game right here!!!
It was frustrating but hilarious picking up the macguffin and then immediately running into a wall and getting eaten by the baddie XD
love the aesthetic and lab theme!!
yeah but why is the popcorn hot
great entry! lots of polish!
cool aesthetic! the animations really solid too <3
Please publish a web build!
The monkey is SO CUTE. Charming entry great job <3
ok this is pretty innovative and very ridiculous love it
Please publish a web build!
RAIL GRIND MECHANICS??? instant 5 stars
i love this boat game its so peaceful
goodness I love the colors and particle effects a lot, I got pretty far but still have no idea how to optimize the routes. great compo entry
I did NOT see the mood shift coming at nightfall!! That is an awesome strategy for capturing humor *and* mood lol 5 star game
Please upload a web build!
i love these sprites <3
Please upload a web build!
frustrating that every mission equips my butter knife regardless of what weapons I have in my inventory but the concept is rad and the execution is good!
EXCELLENT compo entry that's a lot of depth and charm in not a lot of time
popopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopop

adorable sprites! tricky puzzles!
i love the style, i was too scared to get every ending but wow what a mood!
cool stuff as always pomo!
please upload a web build!
Please upload a web build!
tight game loop and cool look!!
ADORABLE i loved it
Please upload a web build!
good job! it was very difficult and i couldn't get far (the handhold hitboxes seem so small or my clicking was not very accurate) but its a complete package and nice to look at
great execution and the character art is fantastic and the tunes are rad!
Please publish a web build!
Please publish a web build!
Please upload a web build!
It took a minute but I got the hang of it. It's notable that PICO-8 doesn't have sprite rotation in its API and you had to make it yourself and its a really cool effect!
Can you upload a web build?
i love the colors and particle effects! i thought i had a winning strategy ignoring shield upgrades for specimen slots but i was wrong
Maybe I'm not doing it right but I don't see a moving image to click on :-(
FireFox + Windows 11
very challenging but it looks great and the concept is tight
definitely the longest i've played a PICO-8 game, i especially appreciated the hungry art connoisseur. well done
Since there's no audio, you should opt out of the audio judging! I think you get a better overall score that way.
I loved the simple art, and it make me chuckle sometimes when my truck would immediately flip over just from the respawn bounce alone XD
Cool concept! I liked the modern take on a text adventure, and seeing the fog of war dissipate as I explored was rewarding
Please publish a web build!
I get this when I follow your link: Screenshot 2023-05-01 111138.png
This is what I see when I click the link: Screenshot 2023-05-01 111138.png

I flew around for a bit but the movement was maybe broken? If I pressed W then the player would zip straight up extremely quickly but flying any other direction (with S, A, or D) the player would move only extremely slowly... just going from the left side of the screen to the right could take minutes. I never encountered the guardian. Is it a bug or intentional? I played the web build btw
Can you publish a web build please?
I love how it fits in one fully coherent package, and has a distinct mood (the color scheme and fisheye zoom in camera effect really brings it home)
you're a pico-8 master, this cart is perfect in every way
It is difficult! I like the delivery dude's animation
Solid! My party froze about 10 hours from the village but we did our best
If you ever get it playable, please ping me. Even after LD48 ends I'll still try it out.
Is it just me or is it unplayable on PC? Interesting concept! Good effort for compo
Please publish a web build so I can play your game!
Delightful! and gross but good job lol
Epic compo entry! Well done.
Absolutely adorable! Loved everything about it. Please add some netcode so we can play with our friends without sharing a keyboard during the pandemic lol
Upload a web build so I can play your game!
Publish a web build so I can play your game!
Please make a web build so I can play your game! *pfv faca versao q posso jogar no browser*
Neat effects! With some more time this could be really neat, but for what it is it's a good compo entry
games like these give me the heebie-jeebies, good job
Looked good, nice and moody. I'd love to see this with more polish and juice. Compo is just never enough time!!
lol seriously who designs a submarine that isn't fish proof!! great compo entry, there's just never enough time!
Fabulous! Adorable theme. Great effort, it's totally playable but the controls are not ideal. Well done, the compo is just never enough time!!
Neat proof of concept! The compo is so hard, there's just never enough time!! Good job with what you got <3
Cute and lots of polish. Compo is so hard, there's just never enough time!
Make a web build so I can play your game!
Cute visuals! I don't love the grindy nature of the gameplay loop but the packaging, juice, and details were fantastic for a jam game.
Impressive attempt at a narrative game in the very tight time constraints of the compo. GG well done
click-and-hold to mine would have been wonderful, but it's pretty cool the way it is, also
I don't agree that the music fit the atmosphere lol I was stressed out the whole time trying not to get zapped!! Challenging and more fun that I expected to have tho, good job!
It was pretty dark but I could mostly see what I was doing. Great proof of concept! A little more time (48 hours is never enough) to polish it off with some sounds would have made it great. Good job <3
Neat! I also didn't read the controls before I played and didn't realize I could space + shift for extra stuff...
I definitely didn't understand what I was doing, but it's a very cool concept! Stay dry lol
Very polished pico game!
Don't forget to rate other peoples games! This was a good solo effort, good job
omg those poor fish, what happens to them when I bump into them??? Great job btw
It crashed my browser after a couple screens in, but I got the idea. Great job for a compo entry!
Good job, we all know 48 hours just isn't enough time for everything you want! Controls were pretty good, enemies were cool looking too
Keen, amazing what ppl can do in 48 hours!
Tricky! Kept me up way too late on a work night. Well done
Challenging and adorable. I did not expect to play it for 30 minutes but apparently I did...
Be advised: windows 7 is no longer receiving security updates and you're setting yourself up to get viruses and malware!
great compo entry, it's a decent pixel puzzler made in two days, well done
I won, but at what cost?
Cool visual direction! I didn't read carefully and died when i collected every powerup, but a second play through I got the hang of it. good job <3
keen premise! haven't seen many entries like this
I beat the boss!! SPOILERS: it was the brother the whole time AAARRRRGG
Congrats on your first jam! It works
I wish i had a gun taht killed slimes! Great to see procedurally generated game content i love that
Great entry for a compo game, I can tell you wanted to do more but there just wasn't enough time! Cool visuals and an original concept. I hope you get high scores for innovation!
Very difficult! But immersive and fun to look at. A full experience. It was chilling. Would be a fun nightmare in VR... Great jam game
I think I was your 20th rating! You're in the running, now! This was a tricky game (I'm terrible at top down shooters) but there's a lot of polish and little things in the game that add a lot of flavor (including the dialogue). Good job <3
I'm so glad I went back to play this some more after I ate, this was a great adventure! I did get the treasure <3
bem feito! i played this on my stream. didn't win, but it was a cool experience. thank you
I'm a total sucker for space games so this one bit me. The probe-to-probe dialogue was adorable! Good job and thanks for suggesting it <3
A lot of depth for a compo game!! You already know about the issues with Firefox. Good job, I hope you get high marks in humor and mood lol
Fantastic execution. I'm not usually a fan of card-game-as-a-video-game (especially in a jam) but this one worked really well. Sure, it could use a little visual and auditory juice but we all know that 48 hours is never enough time. Once I got the hang of the rules everything made sense. Also programming an AI opponent is a big deal too.
There isn't much I can say that hasn't been said but if this isn't a top 3 entry in 1 or more categories I'll be surprised. Great job, team!
I liked this one a lot and tried a few more times after the stream. It's very difficult, but that also makes the good runs more rewarding. Great job! Lots of little things add up to a lot, and it's a compo entry, too!
Loved it. A great zen puzzle game with great look and feel. Wonderful!
awesome compo entry, it's very difficult but I did make it to the intermediate tunnel after some fussing around. Good score for innovation lol
Some original concepts and a neat visual style, good job!
I suspect you're going to sweep the innovation category with this one. Fantastic compo entry.
Too difficult for me! But the animations and humor are great
that's tricky! I couldn't get that far but it was easy to play
48 hours is never enough time! Glad you got something working, and it's a cool concept. I got 9 vines!
Will you make a web build please?
much love to jam games that accommodate mobile users. Very polished and playable
Add a web build so I can play it, please!
Adorable. Great job.
Freaking adorable. I almost rage quit but I'm glad I didn't the ending is <3
I only have nice things to say about it! Great jam game
Cool concept and the visuals were neat too. Some audio would have helped set the mood and help immersion, but we all know 48 hours is just never enough time... good job
Moe Fall was great <3
48 hours is just never enough time. Compo is tough! I like what you have, I can see it being a full game with just a little more time.
Nightmare fuel!! But really, delightful. Good tunes, too
Whoah I think this is the first legit vnovel i've seen in a LD ever. Good job
this is the first and only boss rush i've played in LD48, great execution
haha what a trip. never looking at ice cubes the same way again
cute visual and audio design <3
Well packaged and adorable
cool concept! looks nice too, got that OG playstation feel
good job, this was all above average compo categories loved it
Wow, what a mood, so scary! I couldn't beat it, but it was definitely an experience!
Pretty tricky! I'm rather dense so I didn't solve more than one or two puzzles, but the mood is great
I'm terrible at these kinds of games but this one is really polished for a jam. well done
adorable and innovative <3
Lots of polish for 72 hours, GG!
Wow what a mood!
I liked the mood
ADORABLE
lots of polish and juice in a compo game, great job
this is way more fun than fishing in real life! impressive javascript-fu
any kind of networking in a compo game is a huge achievement. Also Phaser is awesome. What a cool experience
Haha I don't know what I'd do without wolfram tunes, they saved my bacon last few jams.
I love the art in this one. That wolf is terrifying. Great jam, I hope you guys had as much fun making it as I did playing it.
5 stars mood, the fear and dread of being hopelessly in debt - chefs kiss now i want pizza. this game was fun and frantic
One button games are perfect for LD and I liked this one. It's good to be an ant
THE DOGS ARE SO CUTE
lots of polish for a compo game, good job!
Four hour bros!!! Way to knock out a whole game in not nearly enough time.
This was delightful! Very cute. Some music would have helped with the mood but I adore this game.
epic and nice to look at <3
while it would have been helpful to have a visual indicator how close i was to the wall, this is a solid compo entry!
Is there a way to mark a tile that is known hostile? There were times I knew that a tile had a bad guy but I couldn't mark it.
I thought it was an interesting new take on an old classic.
good job on the compo!
Add "press space to swim" to the list of controls lol I spent too long thrashing about wondering why I wasn't moving!
I love the aesthetic.
Link goes to a blank page, this is in the browser console:
Uncaught ReferenceError: cache_info is not defined
Can't play it :-(
delightfully morbid, and kinda gross. loved it. it's better than mortal kombat
the randomizer is brutal, it's really tricky to get the boogers. perfect execution of a simple idea. nice little package
lighting effect pretty neat, solid gameplay loop, no bugs. Nice!
Why didn't you play, rate, and leave feedback for other games?
Why didn't you play and rate other peoples' games?
I thought the dialogue was great. I killed a deer, a bear, and god. <3
The atmospheric effects were a nice touch.
I thought the demon sprites were really cute and I felt bad for killing them. Needs more diplomacy. Otherwise I loved it.
The gun firing sfx is really meaty and fulfilling.
I did my best but it was a little confusing - a couple sample rounds or simplified walkthrough would have helped a lot. If I get a chance I will try it with another human!
I couldn't get past the "test your platforming" skills because my platforming skills aren't that hot! I got far enough to see the igloo but couldn't make that last jump or two because I suck. Great concept and great execution, especially so for compo. Gamepad worked great.
You should rate and leave feedback for other games! Because then more people would see and play this game, which is rather charming.
This is a neat puzzler that could benefit a lot from just a little juice, but I totally understand that compo is hard and there's just not enough time! I played it last night and thought it was impossible to get past level 4 but this afternoon I tried again and realized that the health persists between levels, and did eventually manage to beat it with 100 points.
I didn't win when I played but I liked the mechanics and thought this was a good showing for a second jam ever. GG
I tried last night and this afternoon in case anybody else was online (to try the multiplayer) but there weren't, but it seemed otherwise solid. Good job regardless, multiplayer in compo ain't easy.
Yes, a video game can be a work of art.
Big fan of space games and the GB style, so I liked this one quite a bit.
Great couch compo game. I could *almost* play it by myself using both hands but got my fingers tangled up.
Loved the dialogue. I did not play any other game like this during LD46 which means yours stands out in a sea of half-baked top down shooters and plant-based tomagatchis.
I found it super difficult, but judging from the winners in the comments above I just didn't have enough patience to make progress in the early part of the game. I liked the art and the interface was clean and clear.
Good effort for 48 hours, compo is really tough. I liked the simple art! If I had to pic something to criticize it is that it's really hard to see the mouse cursor on the click-the-meat sections on the blue background.
I like this visual style very much, the bird hero's sprites in particular were charming. It's solid all over, but difficult, though that's understandable given the time crunch, not everything can be perfectly balanced. There's nothing I don't like about it!
I loved the character art!
Did you perform as all the voices? That's impressive!
I never got the hang of it, but I can see the promise. The pixel art was cute!
RIP Conway you left a mark on the gaming world forever. What a fine tribute.
The models and effects were very cool!
It's an effective prototype. With a little more time in the oven it could be a fun game!
I didn't understand the instructions so I didn't get very far, but I found the art haunting (in a good way) and it looks like the premise and concept has potential. Some gooey sfx would really make the mood but I understand it's compo and compo is really, really hard.
It was not clear which shrubs I could add or remove, but I was happy to see that my maze dwellers were unhappy!
**Don't forget to play and rate other games!**
It's got everything, action, suspense, and loot collection. I thought the sprites were cute and effective even if the game was too difficult for me. I played with a gamepad and the gamepad worked perfectly!
I thought the animation of the cat walking was really smooth. It took a while before I "got" it, but I was able to do ok on easy, and hard was, well, hard. So, good job! I wish there was sound but compo is hard, I totally understand. GG!
I clicked on the first flower on my first turn, then the screen went red. The game was very tiny and I could not resize it, and there was no full screen option, so I couldn't really read the text.
I like the art though, and the concept has promise. Good job making a complete game in 48 hours, it's not easy!
@almighty-games Did you play the original Number Munchers? We were actually forced to play this in grade school lol, and this version looks and plays just like the original. Hilariously the colors were just as ridiculous in the original, and even *worse* for your eyes back then because it was displayed on a cheap CRT monitor! Like staring into a blue light bulb!
@logan-perkins Good job!
Some neat elements here. I could not get past the 8th stage, I died the first try, and when I hit spacebar to restart the level the bullets were already right next to VIP and killed him. Then I hit space again and he immediately died, then after that it got stuck on the level 8 title.
I was a terrible bodyguard lol but good job, compo is hard!
It's compo, you need to share your source!
The tutorial doesn't really tutor the user on how to play but I can see that a lot of effort was put into the game, so good job for making something playable in 48 hours. It's definitely not easy to do, but you did it so kudos!
It gets a little frantic but I don't think I started to lose until I got a little lazy. Great job for compo, 48 hours is so little time but this has a good gameplay loop.
Cute graphics, and well done for 12 hours. I thought 48 was too little time to make a real game, and here you are knocking this out in half a day. Well done, GG.
Cute and chill. I'm not a very good golem but I did my best. Well done, GG!
The dogs were adorable and even though the sheep AI was definitely trolling me I found it fun and entertaining. Why is it so difficult to keep my fences repaired on my floating pasture lol?
Great job, compo is so tough!
I'm sure there's already enough feedback regarding the inverted controls, but jams are all about experimentation and I don't really fault you for it. There's no ratings category for "controls" anyway so it doesn't factor in to the rating (from me, anyway).
Visual style is good. Gameplay is solid. Theme on point. I can tell you gave it your best effort, so good job. GG!
Did you use wolfram to generate the song or did you compose it yourself? I, too, had a kinda short song that I forgot to repeat in my game lol just wondering. GG you put quite a bit of effort into the UI for a compo game, few people have that dedication and here you are. Well played.
Scratch FTW. Good compo entry! I didn't do very well, but I'm generally not very good at avoiding things.
I love a game that perfectly simulates how I feel about camping and hiking. Stay inside, kids, there are no trolls inside.
I don't have much to criticize, this is probably a perfectly scoped project for compo, where there are a few ideas that would have been really nice to have if only you had a couple extra hours, but all the important stuff made it in so that ppl can have a quality experience and you don't have to opt out of any scoring categories.
Why does the coal look exactly like the rest of the walls? My first couple attempts I died really quick because I though the coal block around that corner was part of the corner.
The character art is good and the game looks good too for compo. We both know 48 hours just isn't enough time! This game could be a lot of fun with a little more polish.
I am proud to say I preserved the roses until I beat the game. That dastardly with really made the last round difficult! I thought this was a great compo entry. If it weren't for the narrative between scenes I would have stopped playing after the first or second level but because of the cut scenes I had to see how it ended.
Difficulty aside, it's a fun little game. The art was cute (even the devastating lose screen) and the sound is fine for compo. What algo did you use for maze generation, and how did you modify it? I just made a maze game this weekend so I still have mazes on my mind.
Good job. I liked the game.
This is high on my list of favorite compo games in LD46. Gamepad works most excellently. My first playthrough I didn't read the instructions correctly and forgot I could throw wine.
But my second playthrough I got it. Great job!
I never found the panic button, but I did make it into the basement without spoilers. This is a great jam game and exactly the right amounts of frustration, hackiness, and joy one might expect from a game made in 72 hours.
Judging from the comments, the stuff I would complain about has already been complained about, so I have nothing to say except nice things! Poor gramma, RIP!
I thought it was pretty well executed, I liked that the "things happened" based on steps taken instead of based on absolute passage of time. In that way, it was kind of like a board game, where I would have a moment to calculate my next steps. Can I help Annette with her broken calculator before my kidneys fail from dehydration? Or can her problems pile up while I drink and take a fresh air break.
The RNG is interesting too, on my second playthrough, I went directly to the water tank and drank 50 times before someone ran into a problem!
lol @ accusatory nature of anonymous comment
Works well, character art is good. I didn't get too far but I didn't run into any obvious bugs either, so kudos
I've seen it streamed so many times I thought I would do better than I did lol but it's a very solid jam game. Lots of polish, great mood, and no obvious bugs during my playthrough. I'm sure you already know but this could be a fun VR experience, too!
I enjoyed it a lot, got stuck on level 13 but proud to have made it that far. Despite the lack of BGM it's still charming and fun. Compo is hard! Good job.
This is one of my favorites.
I loved it, personally. Fantastic compo entry. Getting a tutorial like that into a compo game is also a great accomplishment. GG!
Fox is adorable too
The belch was a nice touch and for 24 hours the compo product is a great proof of concept. I caught you on twitch post-jam working on it and had to check it out. Even in 24 hours you ticked pretty much all the boxes: a lose condition, music, sounds, and graphics. It's endless I assume so there's no expectation of a win condition. On top of all that you built it with a library you weren't familiar with IIRC?
I dig it, GG
Lots of polish, cute game. I planted lots of cacti but some of them never grew into big cacti, maybe I just didn't know what I was doing. Gamepad controls worked very well.
I couldn't figure out how to get through the passages with multiple "rest" sections without losing all my birds... when I made it to the other side, it was just the velocity bird again, and then when I tried to leave the section with all the "rest" sections then the velocity bird died too.
Otherwise it was nice to look at and listen to!
Pretty good for compo, this is the first bullet hell I've played in LD46 so far so congrats on that! Web build is a bit janky, it took a long time to load and firefox thought it crashed but I told it to wait and it eventually loaded. Each time I cleared a stage the game would freeze for 10+ seconds until the new bad guys appeared.
The stages are challenging, the ship looks really good, and it's compo after all. Good job.
Compo is really, really hard! You got a working game out of it, with sound and graphics so you didn't have to opt out of any rating categories. That's alone is an achievement so good job!
We both know with more time in the oven it could be cooler but I enjoyed the two minutes I spent with it.
Descent meets Body Wars, cool! Great job for compo! I wish I had more indication that my shots were actually hitting the virii but that's a small complaint on an otherwise great compo game. good job
Nobody was online when I played, but I can see how cool it would be if someone were. I can also totally understand spending most of the time getting multiplayer working and running out of time for sound!
I'll try again later and see if anyone else is playing. Pretty cool!
Love me some space games. You managed to get it all done in compo timeline! Graphics, sound, music, and a stable, fun game loop. It's hard to do, good job!
Haven't seen one quite like this, I was expecting something akin to arkanoid from the screenshots but I got something completely different, thumbs up for subverting my expectations there! I didn't run into any bugs (that I recognized as bugs anyway) and I found it a little difficult but I also didn't put too much effort into understanding the concepts either. A couple sound effects would have spiced things up a little bit but I get it, compo is hard, I know well.
Great job for compo!
Other than weirdness at the edges of the screen, which is a known issue, I had some trouble with gamepad input. 90% of the time the bullets would shoot in the direction I was pointing, except after I had been holding down fire for a while (> 20 sec) it would get stuck firing in a set direction and would not change direction until I released the trigger and started firing again.
That minor annoyance aside it's a great game and a really solid jam entry. GG!
edit: Playing with an official microsoft xbox controller
Very difficult, but cute and humorous. The lo-fi graphics are great and it fits the theme. I regret that I was unable to keep it alive. It could definitely benefit from some sound effects, even simple beeps and boops!
Great entry for compo, tho!
I enjoyed it and had fun. The character art is cute and the enemies have lots of variation!
RIP Conway, this is a fine tribute. GG
Great first try! I liked the lighting effects and the character art.
I thought the exaggerated explosions were great and totally in keeping with the overall aesthetic of the game. I lost my battle welder halfway through and still made it to the end, so maybe it's too easy? A little BGM would have gone a long way, too but I get it, it's compo, compo is really hard and this is really good so kudos!
Cool BGM, I'm sure people have given you plenty of feedback about the camera and physics already so I'll just say that I like the character art.
I remember your awesome shark game from LD44. This one is also awesome, well done. Lots of polish for 48 hours. I wish the BGM loop were a little longer but I get it, it's compo. Great job.
Pretty sure you're getting high scores for "mood" category with this one. Pretty stirring for a five minute experience. Good job.
That little squirrel's scream will haunt my dreams (I dropped him a lot sometimes by accident). GG
I guess there wasn't enough space to implement a win condition? I got the tree to the top of the screen but by then Pico was having a hard time rendering I think, and it started eating my inputs (I would hit z but the cloud wouldn't restart).
Submitting a tweetcart is daring move for compo, where I suspect most folks will just not understand the limitations and judge harshly. For 279 characters I thought it was darn good.
You got me with the jump scare lol. I beat it the second time by climbing over the walls, seems like most of the canyons can be scaled just by walking into them at an angle, or walking up the corners. I enjoyed it. Good job.
I found it confusing and difficult, but I liked the visual style and the game ran smoothly.
I did just fine by drawing the tattoo on the sheet of paper with the tattoo design... over the design lol.
It worked! Made it to $1000 before the end of day 2!
Cool concept I thought it was fun <3
I liked the humor and the dialogue
I enjoyed it, it looked nice. Pity there is no sounds or music, it's otherwise a complete experience. I did my best but in the end an asteroid knocked me all the way back down to the lava, and I died. Good job!
This is good for a compo entry and I liked the character art a lot. I appreciate the variety of bad guys.
Compo is so tough, there is just never enough time for everything you want, and often not enough time for just the things you need. This entry is endearing with its visual style and I am a sucker for compo games with a bigger story to tell. This game had it. I liked it a lot, even if it is short and sweet. I hope you do more Ludum Dares because I'd like to see more of your work.
Lots of depth in the "magic" system for a compo game, well done. The pet made me realize I don't eat enough fruit, then I ate some, so indirectly you game made me healthier.
I like games that use the entire play area at once, and keep the screen busy. This is one of them. I neglected to watch my stamina though, and i thought I was doing pretty well lol
Great product for a couple hours work.
I like compo games with extravagant backstories and this had one! Also space games are my jam. I made it to wave 5, which I think is pretty good and the gamepad controls worked very well. The BGM was also nice and I thought fit the overall mood of the game well. I didn't sit still very long but when I did the zoom effect was neat.
I found myself enjoying the zen mood, especially as I played your game after the 1000th top down twin stick shooter escort quest. The ending made me go 'aww'.
Good job.
I had a very difficult time controlling my player, he would jet off the side of the map and I basically had to stay near the middle of the play field and not move in order to actually pick off the bad guys. Maybe the movement is not using `delta time`?
Otherwise, the shooting was very fulfilling and whatever shader you're using helps spice up the geometric shapes a good bit. Good compo entry.
Good job keeping the pixel ration consistent, the visuals are nice to look at and colorful. Your interpretation of the theme is great, too.
Proud to say I was there when @arthurds "Porno The Dog" typed random words for a full half hour. Also this game is pretty cool.
Simple but engaging. There's not much up to chance, it's all about skill... and I am not that skilled at climbing a mountain while bouncing a hot potato lol
Great job.
Super cute! I didn't keep many puggos happy but I did my best. Gamepad controls worked well.
Frantic! Took me a few tries to really figure out the controls but once I did on my best run I was able to save 20, so I'm proud of that.
I gave you feedback in the stream already but the character art is adorable, the concept and mechanics are solid, and the abuse of physics is really comical. I found it a very charming package. Just missing some BGM as frantic as the gameplay!
Lovely narrative and clever time travel gimmick, I'm glad there was a tutorial and an option to change mouse sensitivity. The visuals were simple but just right for the purpose. I wish I was as cool as coolio!
Great sprites, run well. I found it very challenging and I think I made it almost to the end of stage 3 (or stage 4 I lost count because the gameplay was so frantic). A crosshair for my mouse would have helped a little, but all in all it's a good entry. Well done.
Great tunes, great visuals, engaging narrative!
I played the streamer version so I didn't get shut down, thankfully. I like the novelty of messing with the fourth wall, but there must be a less intrusive way. Ten years ago I'd say you should eject their cd rom tray or something but nobody has cd drives anymore. Maybe flip their display output to upside-down? Change their screen resolution?
As far as I can tell, there was no audio.
Sprites were cute (and evil), I found it very difficult but I put a bunch of blobs into the blob receptacle on that tree! I liked the large play area and general visual design.
Very challenging! I loved the visuals, I was able to collect two animals for a couple seconds on my best run! I did not run into any bugs, and I gave it several attempts. I like the space theme.
It took me a couple tries before I realized that there isn't an action button to use the water pumps and that I needed to stand exactly in the right place next to the water pump. Figured it out tho!
Unfortunately my gamepad didn't works so, I suspect there's no dead zone for stick input in your engine so if my gamepad was plugged in my man walks down and to the left. I had to unplug it and use keyboard and mouse because I couldn't get the dude to stand still under the water pump.
But otherwise it's a great entry! Daring move to write your own engine but it worked fine, I played a few levels and beat my own high score once or twice. Regrettably I'm in isolation and don't have another player, but I can see how that would be fun, too. GG!
I love the premise and the execution too. There are a few UI quirks (resetting the moon doesn't always work, sometimes I could not restart after a game over unless I reloaded the tab) but overall it's very cool. I loved the character art and the mechanics worked will for me, I was able to beat it in a few attempts.
Tricky, tricky! Simple mechanics but difficult to master, and that's how it should be. I liked the raytracing(?) effect that hid areas of play that weren't visible to the possessed dot. Effects were sufficiently gross. There's a lot you can do with this. Good job!
No joke, gave me goosebumps. I played web version so running didn't work very well (input too sensitive to run without bumping into walls) and unlucky me the monster happened to be in the kitchen the same time I went to turn on the lights in the kitchen.
Scary as heck. Also I envy your accordion skills, I can barely play spoons so extra points for that.
Good job, cool effects, I liked the sfx too! Cute sprites and neat ending (well, when you lose. Is it possible to win?). You had a high score feature, so I'm jealous, because I didn't that far lol.
Gamepad support helped a lot, I liked the subtle particle effects in the background (made it look kinda dusty in a cool way), which gave it some more character. Seen lots of games about eggs and plants so a hungry sword is a refreshing change of pace.
Space games are my jam, this is a great entry. The gamepad support is excellent. Looks great, solid game loop, perfectly scoped for a jam. The BGM is a banger, too.
Obviously made with love. Very polished, packaged well, and adorable on top of everything. The pasta dish is a wonderful touch and so were the seamless restarts.
I don't understand why this doesn't have a web build!
Early on I was thinking to myself, "this egg is way too fragile," especially because I've seen eggs survive crazy things in other egg related games this LD, but when I played through it a second time I realized the physics and the difficulty are perfectly balanced. I can make a couple mistakes (or be a little reckless) to get the egg to the other side, but not too many mistakes, and not too reckless.
Well done.
Self defense with gardening shears, I love it. Adorable character art, even the gore is kinda cute with the little skulls and all. Good game!
Cute! Loved the dialogue and character art.
Stirring. Glad you made it. I liked the colorful art. Regrettably I did a terrible job keeping the relationships alive but talking to grampa was nice. Good entry.
Definitely one of my favorites. I beat it on the first try. The dialogue is fantastic and the art is great too.
What a hoot. Loved it.
I love the concept and the character art is awesome! I found it challenging and adorable
The tunes were awesome, and I liked the visual assets a lot. Kill that pig monster!
Love the visual designs and humor - I couldn't keep lemmy alive, but I did my best lol
Great compo entry, loved the mood and all the nice little touches that gave it life.
Love space games, and this is a good one. I found it pretty difficult. If you keep working on it, add game pad support - can control green guy with left stick, blue guy with right stick, red guy with bumpers, etc... make people tangle their fingers all up on a gamepad lol
Good looking and moody, I liked it. The first time I tried to use the crafting table to make a pickaxe, it said I didn't have enough resources even though I had 8 wood and 9 rock, the axe costs 5 wood and 5 rock
This is one of my favorites in the jam category. Y'all did pretty much everything right, I don't have much to criticize. Well done.
I love how much there is to explore! I'm a potato in real life so being a potato in a video game wasn't that novel, but regardless the game is very charming. A few beeps and boops could go a long way to giving it some more life!
Big fan of the art style and BGM. Very cute!
I dig it! Very swell package, has challenge, tunes, and good art. I love simple controls, and two buttons is as good as it gets.
Cool isometric graphics! It seemed to work pretty well.
Sound and art design is awesome, love the aesthetic!
I made soup! I thought it was fun. The voice acting was cute but the guy in the hole had so much echo effect I couldn't really understand him.
How do you get past the first level? Ducky falls in a pit, then I put a frog in the pit to get him out, then the eagle slaps him through the spiders but the last spider ALWAYS kills him.
I love that it randomizes the environment every time you play!
Even with customizing controls to use gamepad (awesome for a compo game btw) I couldn't get past neo-Helsinki, but it was a very neat game. Super cool for a compo entry.
I thought it was cute and fun! Of course I wanted more but I totally understand it's hard to make a lot of content in a short amount of time! I liked the colorful sprites.
Well done, I have nothing to complain about. Very impressive for 72 hours! Highly rated for the Parappa the Rappa mood, nailed it.
Pretty cool!
Endearing visuals and sound design (including music). I had no idea what I was doing but the whole thing was packaged well. Great jam game!
Just barely but VICTORY! I thought it was a hoot, I liked it a lot. Some sound would help a lot, but I absolutely understand - compo is REALLY HARD.
It's really hard! I thought the visuals were very cute and the mood was perfect. Nice BGM also
I guess my keyboard isn't good enough, it would only recognize three keys pressed at the same time, I wonder if any of the activity keys were hyper keys (like shift, control, or alt) that I would have had an easier time. In the end, I was able to complete two whole orders! I thought it was fun and loved the mood.
Gostei! I like what you did, the art is colorful and expressive and the game is complete!
It's challenging! I love the little quips and humor sprinkled about. And online leaderboards are always a nice touch.
Pretty cool, it's so hard to make a solid entry in compo that also tells a story. I've yet to pull it off in a jam or compo so entries like yours give me hope.
The novel escort mechanic and the medieval(?) concept is pretty cool!
PHASER BROS
Great game. So much character. Simple, but brought to life with a ton of little touches of personality.
Procedurally generated world? That's pretty cool!
I hope you learned a lot! It's so challenging to get off the ground sometimes and it looks like you're on the right track.
Was there anything I can do that I didn't do while I tried it out?
* i can click on the stick to zoom in on the stick * i can click on the ball to zoom in on the ball * i can click on the cat to zoom in on the cat
I'm going to try the downloadable but you should know that the web build hangs in Firefox and shows this error in Edge (Chromium) on Windows 10: nullref.png
I'm in the QWOP in space boat, I couldn't get past the first level in single player but there are a lot of good ideas here with great execution despite the impossible difficulty of single player. I'm a sucker for space games so I knew I was going to like it before I played, and you bonus points for trying something new and making it work.
These dadgum starfish keep zapping my orbs! I hope I get to say that in a real conversation one day. It was difficult, but I liked the mood and music. Swirling orbs count as innovation in my book!
I was in the top 1000! That's my dream in Ludum Dare lol
gg wp
Quite moody, I'm not sure I ever really "figured it out": it seems like once you "miss" you can never "hit" it again afterwards. I liked the music and the look of the game a lot!
Everything comes together in a nice little package. Charming entry, well done. Little to complain about for a game made in 48 hours.
Great all around. I knew Brian was done for when I had to navigate a weird maze at the same time. Love the tunes, how do I get the OST lol
There's just never enough time in the compo! Valiant effort. No doubt the procedural island implementation could be useful in a future project. The birb was very cute.
Music and visuals created a compelling mood. There is a surprising amount of depth.
Epic. I love the ending. It has a BOSS!!!
Good job! Gross as heck but still fun, and the silliness was charming, despite the blemishes
I thought it was funny! I got in so many fights and ended up killing everyone and my plant did not grow lol
That was cute!
I noticed that on rainy days the rain only appeared on the left side of the screen, I'm playing on a 4K display.
Quite spooky, great mood. Stirring story and visuals.
I was able to play offline, so I can still rate the game!
The lobby was empty so I opened a few new tabs to fill up the lobby with myself, but couldn't figure out how to actually start the game from the lobby.
Jeffers is adorable and I wish I could keep him alive longer! I pushed my health all the way up to 150 but the dragon still killed me at the end lol. Is there a way to replenish Jeffer's health? The third or fourth baddie always kills me if I start with 10 health.
I never figured out how to last longer than a minute or two, but the theme and mood were on point. Good entry
Cool concept! I was unable to keep it alive though lol, replaced a looooot of body parts but not enough i guess
The `bzzt` sound effect is my favorite in all of ludum dare 46 so far!
Pressing 'Q' on the title screen crashes the game (web build)
Neat concept and inspired. Good effort! Thank you for making it for web.
Great mood. Nice BGM, too. The anims are slick, too. I had to give up after a few levels because the constant clicking was making my wrist act up, I wish I could just hold the button down! Solid compo game!
I had more trouble getting past the title screen than the first few actual levels of the game lol
Nice! Ninja games are great. I struggled with the fifth level but the graphics were cute and the controls were tight.
It ended abruptly at wave 15, does that mean I won? I liked it, I like space stuff a lot. I'm playing on a 4K display and the `repair` and `buy` buttons are soooooo far away from my spaceship and tiny lol
The 'lose' animation is really well done, epic planetary zoom-out. Moving. I liked the sailboat's flowing flags that was a nice touch.
It wasn't really clear that pressing space bar was doing anything at all, pollution would disappear whether or not i press space bar. Am I supposed to hold it down all the time? Mash it repeatedly when I'm over pollution?
I use a 4K display and the health meter was partially off the screen, and sometimes pollution would spawn offscreen.
Also the tunes were nice!
I played on web, it was really, really hard! Just barely got over 60 on my best attempt.
Very cute and colorful, consistent design and visuals give life to an uncomplicated game. Good entry, thanks for sharing!
Adorable visuals! I love all the colors and the characters expressions.
(You should probably disable ratings for Audio since the music isn't yours)
I'm really bad at this! I feel so sorry for the pink ball, that I couldn't do more to protect it...
Nice variety of spells.
That background track is a banger! Also compelling mood
5/5 mood that was horrifying. The tunes genuinely made me uneasy. Well done
Is there a win condition? I liked the graphics and I thought the sacrifice mechanic was great.
I wasn't expecting it to hold my interest to the end but it did, so well done. Very cool story!
Great compo entry. I beat it! My strategy was "run away from anythign that I can't loot"
Well done, wish it had any kind of sounds at all.
You're makin' compo look easy. Great mood. Innovative mechanics
very cool, professional work
Movement felt really neat, I liked being able to fly.
**Don't forget to play and rate other games - you'll get your 20 ratings a lot faster that way**
Cool concept and neat art!
**Don't forget to play other peoples games!!!**
adoravel. very cute, solid gameplay. I didn't do very well, but I'm bad at runner games. I liked your game
otimo, gostei muito!
Very challenging! Polished entry, catchy tunes
5/5 mood!
More than what it appears on the surface. Cool take on the theme for sure. Nice job
lol i had the same problem, eventually i figured it out but was all like... fight?
Cool mechanics. Takes some care and skill to parry and stab at the right times and manage stamina.
Loved the character animations!
RIP Filimonchik, you handsome devil!
This is excellent game for compo. It's hard to make anything really great in that time limit, but this is great.
OH my gosh that ending! I can't believe I helped those jerks ____ __ ____ _____ ____ _______ __!!!
Great art. The characters "idle" conversation repeated too frequently, so frequently that it felt like they NEVER stopped talking.
But that is just a small complaint. I enjoyed playing it.
@webox I got 0.50 too lol!
deceptively simple, there's more than meets the eye
well executed
adorable bots
Bill is so dapper I am so jealous I will never look that good in a bow tie. Great entry, loved it. Thanks for making a web build.
I won! Yay! I will admit I said something I could not say in front of my mother when I ran over those tiny, nearly invisible spikes halfway to the end.
My square is made out of greased ice! I couldn't get very far, but I sorta got the hang of it. The inertia was just too frustrating... My favorite part was the exposition! I love square drama.
Oooh, that twist! I found it quite peaceful despite it being a war! I enjoyed this entry.
You mashed up two things I wouldn't normally mash up (like nuts and gum) but the experience was good actually? I hope game boy is proud of you. I thought the styling of the itch page was the icing on the cake.
Cool sfx and quite a bit of depth for a compo game nice
I thought the life sucking spell was rather well done.
web version 404's: Annotation 2019-05-10 230643.jpg
Hey, another phaser 3 game! That's so cool!
I played for longer than I thought I would. It really, really could have used numpad support, but that's my only complaint.
Any chance of a web build?
Sure it could benefit from more levels but it **is** a complete game, which is a huge accomplishment on its own. The dialogue very much gave life and personality to Kenny's generic sprites, which I appreciated a lot.
Cool use of the library! I take it scratch was your first language? Keep learning, you're definitely on the right track! I enjoyed the dialogue.
Also - I strongly recommend you play more LD games if you want enough reviews to get a score. It looks like you've only rated around two games so far. If you rate 10 - 20 games you'll get a lot more people finding your game from the LD front page.
very moody, I like that there's so much depth for a jam game.
Big fan of the art style. And the 3/4 isometric play field feels good too
Very cute! Big points for mood I think
Ooo, it's really tough! I couldn't beat it but I thought it was fun
This game is adorable and very polished for a jam game. I don't think it would take much to make it a commercial product. Did you add the web build recently or was it always there and I just overlooked it?
Excellent entry. I almost flipped the table trying for the no deaths run, but I eventually got it. What'd you make this with?
Well done, I enjoyed it quite a bit. A couple head-scratchers there, too.
I got all 10 coins on tutorial island, and made it back to the boat, found the map, but the map would only let me go back to the tutorial island. How do I get to the other islands from the boat? The only green option on the map was tutorial island.
Still, a very polished entry.
I'll call this a game but just one time. Making JUST a song in 48 hr is p cool I sure as heck couldn't do as well as that on sound if I had a year to do it. Given my experience with unity's particles getting ANY thing cool to come out of it is an accomplishment.
How do I make a new fleet? I had three at the beginning but by the time I had one fleet left I was "getting it" and making some progress. Cool game!
Very cute. I got 31 letters! I didn't really understand the difference in the shopkeepers items so i bought one of each every time I ran past.
Big fan of procedurally generated content. Aside from lack of sound, this is a near perfect compo entry. Tight game loop, passable controls, enough complexity to impress but not so much the game is incomplete. I'm probably the minority but I also adore time-scoped game play, especially in bite-sized experiences like jam games. Everyone who plays this is a speedrunner lolololol 🏃
My high score was 6 without exploiting the grey powerup.
This has promise for a more long-form experience I hope you're not done with it after the jam. Great entry
I thought the animations were pretty well done. Decent depth in the fighting mechanics for a jam game, too
I appreciated the tiny badguy squares' "dash" attacks when they got close
great art
that was fun!
Tricky... cool entry, neat new mechanics
Haha way to tie it to the theme
Wooo that's tough. Nice entry, nightmare fuel for the spiderphobic!
Great entry, good work!
Gorgeous game. Adorable.
Haha great premise
Those little people keep getting too close when I'm skidding past them... great entry
hehehe i enjoyed it
what a riot. well done
Great entry. Very polished for 48 hours well done
I wonder if FTL was some inspiration for this. I'm a sucker for space games so I loved this. If I had to critique I'd prefer no sounds instead of the recurring static rumble noises but I can totally empathize with the reluctance to opting out of a rating category!
Brilliant entry. Cool *coincept* nyuck nyuck. Would have loved an escape hatch out of the coin collecting phase, I think I had to just sit on my thumbs for a few minutes because I already found all the hints and coins!
I felt like I was in heck, 5 stars for mood
Neat-o!
My only complaint is that door takes forever to open even though the level is complete and there's no reason to keep standing around...
Not my favorite genre but this was definitely amusing. Cute sprites lol
Sr. Sausage is my favorite sprite in the compo so far
I hope people realize what an achievement this is without third party libraries...
My only complaint is that the mouselook is extremely sensitive. On more than one occasion a skull came out of a wall or a corner and gave me a jump, which of course wiggled my mousing hand and caused the camera to spin around a couple thousand degrees, completely disorienting me. I still managed to beat it in one try, but the jump scare + the complete discombobulation nearly made me pee my pants.
If it were me I'd have set the mouse sensitivity to 50% or 25% of its current value. I guess I could have done that with the windows mouse settings so I'm just rambling.
FYI these are my Windows mouse settings and I'm using a crappy $5 wireless optical mouse for laptops (I guess) Annotation 2019-05-02 190255.png
That's not to take away from how cool this is, it's really, really cool.
Every time I tried to fix something I'd only net a +5% efficiency because I'd lose 5% while the animation was finishing! Really tough but haven't seen anything else like it in the compo so far so kudos
I put a gold bar on the button but the door didn't stay open... and by then I had run out of coins so I couldn't poop any more bricks!
Fun twist on the theme tho
5 stars for humor but by the time I found penelope she wouldn't give me the next macguffin because I didn't have enough oxygen... guess I'll die?
Totally adorable
Ha! Great entry, wish it had more levels but I totally appreciate that's how it is with a 48 hour time limit
Haha that last level is a little tricky...
I liked the variety of bad guys
Cool, haven't seen anything else like this in the event so far
Impressive
Very zen, I liked it. Maybe gradually adjust the lighting to better indicate the day/night progression!
Goofy plot with solid gameplay. I liked it
I love being a carrot
This kinda reminds me FTL but without the space combat, like you know when you visit a space station or a derelict vessel and have the option to board or fight the spiders infesting it? I love these kinds of games, this one kept me busy for a little while. good job
This is a neat prototype for what could be a really cool game with more depth and polish. I mean, it's already pretty cool (I love space games) don't get me wrong!
I wonder if I was having the same problem as @liauj , I could beat the levels, but with just barely one heart left. By the time I got to the fourth level (with no upgrades!) it was impossible to get the final acorn and get to the exit before running out of hearts. Cute grafx tho!
Like DANG if this squirrel is so hungry he'll die in 15 sec you'd think he'd move a little faster for those nuts lol
brutal, but pretty well executed
I liked the colorful - and weird - heroes
haha reminds me of Sim Tower from 100 years ago
some really great pico8 entries this jam, including this one
Hard is really hard! Well executed
Love these kinds of entries
I got my brains eaten in the first wave but i liked it
Fun, but hit detection on the edges of the single-block platforms is flakey... sometimes I land right on top but slide off the side!
best original concept i've seen so far
In the web version, when I push `alt` the window focuses to Chrome's menus and i have to click in the game scene again to get control back.
Cute sprites!
Neat concept
very cute lol
Keen! I like the dragon design.
Cool jam game! It has an excessive amount of exposition for a bejeweled clone but it definitely creates a mood
lol goofy premise held together with great execution
Like a magic eye poster, some people can see it and some people can't... I can see magic eye posters but haven't been able to figure this game out. Very cool ocean effect tho!
solid entry! I got to wave 4, those pitchfork guys are brutal
5 stars 4 audio
Cool! Does it have a win condition? I beat level 4 but could continue playing
5 stars for mood
well executed. fun and funny
that's tough! great entry
a delightful and terrifying commentary on the world we live in. so poignant and timely. love it
sound seemed super quiet, great entry tho
well done, good entry
neat-o, very polished entry
love the couplets
wow that's tough! great entry. I couldn't get past the second level because jumps don't work sometimes
very cute. i felt something
lol ridiculous i love it
Compo entries are solo - did you mean to publish to the jam?
Neat-o! After a couple rounds I never got any more money, even when I had it all the way "D"
Couldn't play: Annotation 2019-04-29 195053.jpg
Bought my soul back in 37 days!
felt like i was in school again except for the pokemon part which didn't exist yet lol
lol i died
How to play without making an account?
Well, you tried. I loved watching my (all volunteer lol!) army grow by the thousands yearly for hundreds of years
edit: not sarcasm, it made me grin
I didn't realize until watching the YT video that the little pellets were health, but I'm just dense. Cool game
tight! i liked the rolling ocean. even though it was in hell the motion was nonetheless soothing
controls need work but the novelty of destroying million dollar aircraft with fish totally compensates
hehehe i couldn't beat it but it did make me chuckle. good stuff
Dark and scary, like being deep under the earth in minecraft. I won!
I liked the fact my job was to kill vegetables with legs. I didn't understand the sound mechanic though
what a peculiar concept... hug combat
I liked it, made me think for a couple of them. The guy seems a little "slippery" but it added to the challenge in a fun way.
i liked the art
I love being a shark!
I was unable to compile your game despite installing SFML.
But if it's any consolation, I took your advice and made windows and linux binaries of my game as you suggested.
Wow, what a strange game, yet endearing.
i didn't understand how to play, but i did somehow manage to get past the first level. i liked it
it's tricky!
I love digging!
I got to the bad guys and killed two of them, the third one killed me and i couldn't continue...
I like the grappling hook mechanic!
Challenging! I kept falling through the level on the part where the spike shoot upwards from the ground... I would fall into a lower part of the level and then get stuck behind a wall or fall off the level and fall forever
i liked it though
I couldn't figure out how to run it.
I enjoyed it!

Looks like you used gdscript, i think that means you can make a web build! (please make a web build so i can play your game ❤️)
Summoning Circle Specialist by Jimbly 2024-04-25T00:35:18Z ♥ 1
Got through three levels, it's tricky! Smart and good looking, it wasn't really overcomplicated like a lot of the games this jam. Very solid compo entry, especially with leaderboards and everything 👍👍👍

SPOILERS?
I didn't have to summon anything after the tutorial and made it down to (what I assume) is the final boss dragon thing in a large room. But after I defeated the dragon... nothing happened! I was trapped in the room because I couldn't jump back out and continue exploring. Did I beat it? There wasn't a screen or anything to tell me that I won, I was just stuck in a pit with dinosaur eggs and crystals.
It looks and sounds good, to me it felt like the frame rate was really low - like 20 fps. I played on a 4k display. Didn't have too much trouble with movement, if anything, I really liked that I could zoom around. I didn't *intentionally* speedrun it but it felt like I was...

I think I had a bit over 300 when I died... All the sprites were wonderful, it got a little chaotic towards the end but it's kinda fun and I very much appreciate the gamepad support. I love that!
Bail Out! by Historymaker118 2024-04-22T14:51:33Z ♥ 1
I actually found this on pico-8 splore before I found it on the LD site. Super cute sprites, functional and complete game loop, and I had no problems with collision. Cute and fun, like pico carts should be. Well done.
Sometimes it seemed like the cops ignored my donuts but that didn't stop me from getting a win after one or two tries.

Is it supposed to look like this? Screenshot 2024-04-21 124823.png
I think the character art is cute but it's too small to see. Sometimes the monsters fought each other (i think?) and sometimes they attacked my cities and sometimes they just exploded, I wasn't really sure what was going on. The sprites are cute though!
I think I died with 50+ seconds remaining in all my attempts XD
Library Fighter II Turbo by JoeShanahan 2024-04-21T16:47:13Z ♥ 1
I didn't *really* understand what was going on but hopping about and spawning whenever I had cards in my hand seemed to get me a win. The friendly fire, though... I rarely had two spawns out at the same time for more than a round or two before one of my spawns ate the other. Cute art, great sounds.

I couldn't get past Pigeon-Karen but the whole thing is beautiful and amazing. Epic jam game with LOTS of polish.

Perfect in every way, honestly. Cute, short, intuitive, and difficulty tuned pretty much spot on.

Remember math munchers? Haha this is great.
Delightfully intuitive in a jam where a disproportionate number of games are overcomplicated!
Witch Courtier by alpacalypse 2024-04-20T21:52:59Z ♥ 2
Charming dialogue and character art but despite my best efforts I was never able to render more than `0` aid... It seems like after I connect the dots I can't do anything else except click on the ink pot until the timer runs out! I swear I read the tutorial text twice (it was a LOT of text) but it might just be too clever for me. Looks and sounds great though <3
Heaven Divers by ThomasZane 2024-04-20T18:18:59Z ♥ 0
I never figured out what was going on, but I think I got some of the arrow key combinations right at some point which made some more cubes appear. Clicking didn't seem to do much and if I am the cube character in the center of the screen I was never able to direct its movement in any meaningful way that I could determine. The animation and "throbbing" of the onscreen arrows was pretty cool.
The Fish Summoner by ScrivenerOfLight 2024-04-20T05:56:22Z ♥ 2
I like how you can freestyle a bit and still score, just like Parappa The Rapper! Very zen. The spacebar shortcuts to get past the menu and advance the level/song did not work for me and I was forced to click the buttons every time. All the musical notes seemed to work just fine.
Good job, the mechanic works well.

It's exactly what it says on the tin, and very charming!
Demanager by satacat 2024-04-20T04:16:32Z ♥ 4
I didn't really understand what was going on, mostly I just got summons by flipping page-by-page thru the book and hitting the bell after every page flip because the stuff on the table and the tapes didn't make much sense. Got second place with that strategy three days in a row before I gave up.
Looks great, sounds great, the animations and sprites are hilarious and terrifying, good job.
The In Between by Adam Gallina 2024-04-19T20:21:40Z ♥ 1
Complex puzzler and tricky, but I put a lot of gems in holes I think... clever concept!
Vampire Summoners by DenisMarasan 2024-04-19T16:32:01Z ♥ 1
`70,500` haha this was great
The pixel art was really charming, I found myself playing longer than I would have - I don't typically like this style of game but I found this one engaging.
Summoner: The Greatest Wizard by Eric Schmiel 2024-04-19T06:13:05Z ♥ 1
This game is indistinguishable from Diablo, even down to the inventory duplication exploit! Screenshot 2024-04-19 021030.png
Please tag me if you make a post-jam version with more content, I'll play it again.
Sacrifice acolyte by Snory 2024-04-19T02:14:39Z ♥ 1
I managed to get through the first round, but didn't understand how. The second round was confusing and lasted quite a bit longer, but in the end resulted in a game over. Sometimes I'd strike an acolyte and wouldn't be able to strike them again for some time later, which was frustrating.
Cool concept, great mood, and the summoning circle effects were pretty neat!

I wasn't able to summon anything, but goodness the art is adorable and I really identify with "Equally Confused Panda"!

Summoner Tycoon by FlyingKaida 2024-04-18T18:36:38Z ♥ 0
Maybe I just didn't get it, but I wasn't able to summon anything. I hosted a solo game, claimed a plot, chose my walls (but walls never appeared). I went to the lectern, chose my summon type (fire, same as the walls I wanted) and then... nothing happened. Clicking around the summoning circle didn't appear to do anything either.
Might just be too clever for me, but the character sprite is cute and multiplayer in a jam is *always* impressive, so good job <3
Summon Get It! by Chrispy977 2024-04-18T04:34:14Z ♥ 1
This is great on so many levels, there's a lot going on and some cool assets. I wish I could move a little faster, I wish I could play with a xbox controller, but you got a whole game here and it's cool!

I don't have anything to say that hasn't been said, this is a high quality PICO-8 entry in every category.

Adorable model, tricky gameplay but good mechanics. I enjoyed it even if I couldn't get past the first level. I liked it a lot!
Sorcerer's Army of Summons by Rendow 2024-04-18T02:15:41Z ♥ 2
I swear I'm mashing the spawn button after the cooldown is finished but frequently they just don't spawn. Managed to get a couple upgrades but having creatures ready to go but failing to spawn is too frustrating.
Looks great though!
If Only by ScoobyDoo 2024-04-18T02:10:29Z ♥ 1
Ahh! It's pretty cute but I couldn't get past the first level. I'm sure I summoned a half dozen creatures but they just sat at the bottom right of the screen and didn't do anything while my tree got attacked. It's also a little frustrating that I had to click on the screen *and* use the arrow keys, unless i missed something and there's a key I can press to invoke the arrow combination without clicking...
NecroBit by comigor 2024-04-18T02:02:20Z ♥ 3
Took a minute to figure out the arrow key combos (i swear i was doing it right but it seemed like it frequently didn't take). Just *one more* bit of color just to differentiate my summons from the mobs and it would be perfect!! gg

SUMMONERS WAR by Bollatix23500 2024-04-18T01:55:27Z ♥ 1
It took me an embarrassingly long time to figure out the controls and ultimately I managed to get past the first level just by spamming F, G, H and the arrows... the same strategy I use for Street Fighter!
ggwp
Demon Doodles by Storeyware 2024-04-18T01:50:22Z ♥ 3
Best one I played, managed to beat it (using a tablet) - but it just said I won and didn't seem to summon anything (unless summoning everyone at once for the "you win" screen *is* the summon for that round)
The last one was the only one I had to attempt more than once, I cannot imagine how frustrating it must be to play with a mouse, hahaha!

Courtroom Conjurer by kalibrated 2024-04-18T00:42:48Z ♥ 2
I didn't really understand how to get a good juror score, frequently I'd see that I need, say, 4 jurors, but when i go out to select jurors it takes me back to the court room after I only selected 3. The cityscape frequently obscured the camera even when i zoom in, making it hard to select jurors. Pretty confusing, or I just don't get it.
Art is great and the noises are fun!

I never got a parry to work, no idea what the timing is supposed to be, but the tunes are great and production values are high.
Matthew, Emissary of Balance by unchain 2024-04-17T14:40:23Z ♥ 3
I like the concept a lot, it works pretty well. I wish I didn't have to use the mouse, but of course there's just never enough time to wire up gamepad support. Cute sprites!
Cat Summoning Terminal by Patrick Pang 2024-04-16T17:49:08Z ♥ 2
I was unable to summon a cat, but the aesthetic is cool and I like cat themed games generally. It's just a bit too clever for me! Seems pretty solid and polished for a compo game <3

First, bless you for the web build. Second, gamepad worked really well. Looks good, plays decently, and all the assets work together well.

Summon Traffic Controller by Ben Albert 2024-04-16T03:31:02Z ♥ 1
Delightful! I dislike the keyboard + mouse controls but the cuteness more than compensates. IMHO a game like this should be playable with a controller. It's quite a bit of fun
Phasebound by Kepsert 2024-04-15T03:14:03Z ♥ 1
It's not obvious you can make the stream vertical, got stuck on level 2 (or is it 3?) for a while before figuring it out. A less dedicated (or more harried) player might have given up
