LD50 — Delay the inevitable

Blockage by Dis0rder 2022-04-05T08:58:34Z

loved the music and atmosphere. art style is brilliant

Help! My Cats Become a Demon Lord! by Profugo Barbatus 2022-04-19T12:36:25Z

This game is really hard! Took a while to realise where to click, perhaps the buttons could animate and pop out in some way. funny art style, captures the essence of the demon :)

Hold Time by Local Minimum 2022-04-08T12:41:58Z

I hate this game. Well done.

No Touch The Cat by Sheol 2022-04-11T12:46:52Z

I felt like a right vicious little feline, good fun! I like the humour and art style. The little comic book pop ups and scritch anims. Good work!

Wild Deuce Chase by anchoredtoad 2022-04-11T12:40:34Z

I feel like I've been trolled playing this game

Paddle Panic 🚣‍♂️😱 by Marlon 2022-04-08T12:56:50Z

Enjoyed this, lovely art, anim + sfx. I'd like a way of playing that didn't involve hitting spacebar on repeat, feel like there's enough other interesting mechanics to slow you down.

Delay the Raptors by Jared Lomangino 2022-04-05T08:42:21Z

loved the music

Sisyphus - The Game by poupiste 2022-04-05T22:57:26Z

Great style and theme! Innovative game design as well. I found the gameplay more frustrating than I thought I would - hard to predict how the ball would move and then was surprised when it got caught in mountain divets etc. But very cool!

Will Goo by Rafael Garcez 2022-04-05T22:41:52Z

Cute graphics and sound, and my kinda gameplay. But did feel there were unfair sections preventing me from getting far. Aesthetics maybe needed more consistency I think as well :). Nice one tho!

Stick it to the ... Robot! by Dan Davis 2022-04-05T13:04:36Z

Really cool setting and love the pixel art! I found the colour matching game a little confusing...there were shades of purple that I kept assuming were blue and got thrown off. I'm not colour blind but a choice of Y/R/G/B would be enough! I also didn't know what to do once I said "I'm comming for you chrome dome". Real nice set-up for a long game tho!

The Last Guardian of Some Orbs by Klumaster 2022-04-26T20:52:33Z

Love the main character's cute walk anim. Found this pretty hard, wish my dude was a bit quicker to help dodge out of the way.

Virus Bash by joewan 2022-04-06T09:52:53Z

Lovely art and impressive upgrade system! I found the whole game too easy at the start, never dashed and just wanted my shots to be more powerful all the time. Some music and good audio would really help that feeling of power. Great foundation for a cool bullet hell! My score: 3906

Gummy Fear by EasyLuckyGem 2022-04-12T12:11:46Z

Cute little game. I enjoyed offering my gummy friends as sacrifice.

Ghost In The Washing Machine by foxxy 2022-04-15T12:03:31Z

The voice quips had me giggling. Great mashup of old art styles. A game that makes you laugh and improves your typing skills while it's at it.

Snooze by LancesCaterpie 2022-04-12T12:20:52Z

Loved the wacky sense of humour. Lots of juice, disturbing audio and a funny art. Did have some trouble getting the arm to do what I wanted, perhaps the drag arm section mechanic could be improved. Overall a great entry :)

Soon To Be Roadkill by captainexpo 2022-04-06T09:39:20Z

Bird QWOP! I like it. Highscore 8sec but I have no idea what my technique was :)

Dont Wake Up! by Bloham 2022-04-11T12:35:15Z

Interesting dream world. Like the sleepy music and using audio to identify clocks. Wasn't performing too well on my laptop :(. Perhaps it could be optimised?

HEXATTACK! by kurrik 2022-04-05T22:46:23Z

I didn't fully understand what I was doing, but I felt very cool doing it! Lovely consistent style and think there is something innovative here. Maybe needs a tutorial level, or clearer UI on the charge up/powers.

Finally! An effective treatment for male pattern baldness! by scgrn 2022-04-05T17:28:46Z

This is how you nail the theme. Great art, great game.

Finally! An effective treatment for male pattern baldness! by scgrn 2022-04-07T13:01:18Z

We did a cheeky "cross-promotion" with you! Bit of friendly rivalry lol :) https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/50/male-pattern-boldness/who-wore-it-better-two-balding-games

Settling On Mars by Daniel Whittaker 2022-04-05T16:58:55Z

Love the art style. Building and meteor animations are spot on. Got overwhelmed at first but settled into some furious clicking and repairing as each resource and building made sense!

The Last Keeper by Bugord 2022-04-07T19:10:26Z

Really enjoyed this! It's quite quickly intuitive as to what you have to do. Art is fantastic. I ended wanting to see more levels and zones for our wizard chum

Promo Sapiens by eptwalabha 2022-04-05T11:03:37Z

Looks cool, but the WebGL version caused my Mac Chrome to hang and crash :( . Then I got black screen and cool announcement voice but nothing else! If I had Windows I'd try it for sure :)

Malarkey! by OddSocks 2022-04-05T12:23:55Z

Some great art and atmosphere here. Would love to see what it could become

Xermatt Redux by kiririn51 2022-04-07T13:58:58Z

Wow, great style in every way! Interesting combination of moods and styles. Instant hook into the plot. I found the pressing-multiple-buttons-to-move-between-rooms just a little annoying. Would be curious to hear what you mean by "An improved version of a previous LD entry" - is this actually more than 72 hours work? (sure seems like it :)

LD51 — Every 10 seconds

For Greater Good by BayLock 2022-10-06T21:09:43Z

Poor babies. Loved the kooky art style and animation. Musics and SFX set a spooky mood and works well! I think i'd have liked a faster way of moving around to check out different corners of the level - like a portal. Nice work on the game!

Encoded War by KokkakNiphon 2022-10-10T17:51:05Z

Great entry and suits the theme perfectly! The mixture of challenges and questions Keep it fresh and varied. Really dig the art, music loop could be a bit longer.

Awesome work for coming up with this one! I'd love to see this turn into a full game

Perihelion by Fuse in a Bowl 2022-10-10T22:17:29Z

This is one slick package oh my. The juicy PHOOOM of the sun burst, pretty VFX and I really quite like the weighty feel to the character - adds to the tension dashing those gaps. Just wish there was more game, perhaps a spin on the main mechanic towards the end. Hope this gets a post-jam version!

Sneak Guy by bwalter 2022-10-06T21:35:52Z

Really like the minimal few-button design of this game. It's quite elegant and fun! I found the later levels quite difficult and a bit frustrating to restart, perhaps if there were some checkpoints? Great little game overall with lots of potential :)

Monkey Bu$iness by LiquidFunk 2022-10-10T17:31:57Z

Timing the market beats time in the market ohoho. Had a good laugh with this game :). Got a bit confused by the green axis thinking the current value was at the screen center (and we had magical monkey future-sight!). Loved it, song now stuck in head aahhh

ANIMAL HOLE by ben_throop 2022-10-05T13:09:05Z

Haha love the soundtrack! Have been singing for a while. Send help

Escape From Paradox Place by Voidwave 2022-10-05T19:37:25Z

OK the costume changes had me properly laughing. After a brief bit of panic and getting into a rhythm I enjoyed the puzzles! Took me ages to find the light switch :smile:.

Great frog

In Season by Ha-kuro 2022-10-05T07:25:15Z

Love the music! And very cute graphics! I'm not a big farming sim fan but I thought this was very nicely done. It just got a bit repetitive for me and I wasn't totally sure what veg was best for which season. Could be expanded very well with more tools, dating etc. Looks like you have a lot of fans :)

CONJR Rapid Text-to-Image by walaber 2022-10-10T17:06:47Z

This is just a naturally funny game idea. Great work! Took me a while to get used to the scale and rotate combo like others have said but that produced some funny pics anyway.

Lovely stuff, 5/5 firefighters scolding fish in museums

Sailing through life by Chase of Bass 2022-10-06T21:25:49Z

The chill gameplay works so well leaving the other part of your brain soaking up a story. Loved the minimal art and vibes. About half way through I realised you can't fail if you hit the edges! Would have scored much higher and relaxed even more :)

Great innovative little game.

Loop Arena by LorandusBianchi 2022-10-05T07:12:47Z

I really liked seeing the clones of myself and the heart racing music was cool! I found the second-to-second gameplay too easy tho, a blob never touched me ;) Would be nice for the game to ramp-up more.

(I also didn't realise until I looked back at this page that you're meant to kill all the blobs. I thought the objective was to keep touching checkpoints!)

Nice job tho!

Jelly Jar by Asieke 2022-10-10T22:23:52Z

I hit a bit of a wall figuring out how to use the treadmill to avoid the imp. After that hurdle it was satisfying to scoop up the little fellas. Art + UI is great. Nice entry overall

LD53 — Delivery

DelEvery by Bassilij 2023-05-01T18:34:35Z

very unique mood. I've never played a game like this before! Quite a few belly laughs. Great job!

Blockade Runner by darzu 2023-05-03T10:09:52Z

The destruction is great and the game does look pretty. I found the gameplay a little slow and unresponsive, perhaps it could be sped up - especially moving around the boat and turning the ship. Overall a nice game and does make you feel like you're commanding a big ol' ship.

Inaka Flowers by SquidGod 2023-05-12T15:44:32Z

That came together as a cohesive cosy whole from such small parts. Lovely

Where to Deliver? by IndivisibleParticles 2023-05-03T09:49:55Z

Love a bit of edu-tainment! Beat my score of 41. Elegant little game, nice art and animated UI. If anything I wanted a bit more game - like another game mode, or drip in different details about the location for progressive difficulty.

With the Grain by Fuse in a Bowl 2023-05-04T16:10:16Z

Man that's a pleasing building experience followed by a nice pay-off - love the little track animation and watching carts o' grain getting choo-chooed about. Discovering the zoom function (by re-reading your description doh) was a life saver. Thinking some in-game reminders would help.

A+ for game name.

Catch it by xCarl 2023-05-10T17:46:04Z

Clean art style is great and it's a robust and neat little game. I think it could have been fun to include some more decision making - like choosing between short distance vs long distance parcels for a risk/reward trade off

Ice Cream Express by Steven Garberg 2023-05-07T12:17:50Z

dang the icecream industry is tough! After a few goes I was able to make it past day 1, feelin' like a pro! Game has a lovely vibe, nice art style. If that initial difficulty was tweaked a bit I think that would help a load. Great work!

Oregon Truck by frosty 2023-05-10T18:25:34Z

Really impressed by how authentic and complete this little homage feels. And love all the funny touches - like the biker gang names. Great fun and a great entry! An inspiration to keep jammin' for life

We Suck At Deliveries by Blo 2023-05-07T13:54:33Z

Loved the little truck and the ideas there. I also struggled with the camera and controls a fair bit, would have liked to get some solid long-shots on the delivery too but mostly drove up close. Nice little entry

🗣️ MR SPEECH: The Purr-fect Pitch by Choo 2023-05-04T15:51:28Z

@kromeboy that's a shame, we did develop this on chrome and it works fine for us (tm)- we're using FMOD for audio and it's quite likely running up against limitations, either network streaming limitations or local performance issues (did you try closing a bunch of browser tabs + ending other local processes?). Thanks for the feedback! FMOD will be tamed!

@dougggggg You should be able to switch track quite late and in time to the beat and it still count as a success. Though I think you're right, perhaps there's something extra that can be done with the UI. If only we had more tiiiime :D

Loving reading everyone's comments thanks everyone! Glad you enjoyed it :). Looking forward to trying out your games x

Equilibrium. Delivery of emotions by abi.code16 2023-05-10T18:32:20Z

Beautiful game, left me wanting more. Eager to see what your team can do in the future

Slime Express by DurkaGames 2023-05-04T20:21:26Z

Ah man I wish there were more levels. Starting to get the hang of things by level 3. Lovely art and vibes, took a little experimentation to figure out what I was supposed to be doing but after that point the gameplay is quite elegant.

Zip and Steady by TopperVideoGames 2023-05-10T18:01:17Z

Excellent puzzler, it was quite clear what was going on quickly given the choice of characters and nice little animations. Loved it. Definitely started to get quite hard quite fast, my brain!

LD54 — Limited Space

StarDust by Geckoo1337 2023-10-05T21:46:49Z

I love elegant innovative experiences like these. Great vibes, it was a real pleasure to paint through this landscape. Excellent stuff.

STELLAR LIMITS by obittner 2023-10-04T23:00:29Z

beautiful game, looked great even with 5120 x 1440. Found it quite therapeutic to zip between the planets though I didn't end up with much of a real strategy beyond mad grab and sell! perhaps a minimap or offscreen markers could help find the right planet? Neat game overall, nice stuff.

Choo Choo Kitchen by coffeemakingtoaster 2023-10-05T12:35:20Z

Really pretty game. I did struggle to find the train and figure out what I was doing for a while. Getting the system working was satisfying in the end.

Swarmed In by Fuse in a Bowl 2023-10-03T21:37:59Z

Man I loved the game feel - movement, assault rifle and grappling hook. Very smooth! Didn't find myself using the grappling hook much though perhaps with more playtime I'd discover some techniques. Great little core loop, wish there was more!

Worm Out by Kyrios 2023-10-06T19:06:36Z

OK great choice of SFX. The scream got to me 🫠. I didn't read your advice about the special enemy and died quick, maybe the game could have an example of them standing at the end of a corridor easy to kill? Great atmosphere and art.

Mr. Orange & The Squeezer by Joe Bevis 2023-10-04T22:28:47Z

Yes a playdate game! Sideloaded and got 75s as my best score. Really crisp aesthetic and using the crank for fine adjustment was neat. It's quite a slow and careful game, would like to see what a fast paced version is like. Perhaps that could speed up the decision making. absolutely nailed the theme, good stuff!

Tanuki Trouble by xett 2023-10-07T22:51:29Z

Nice consistent pixel art, groovy tunes. I'm glad someone made a tricky platformer, really started enjoying it as it got harder and was after more! Something felt a bit too powerful about infinite jumps, maybe the little guy should jump and glide? Anyway great entry, I enjoyed it :)

PawLocked by Thomas Higgins 2023-10-07T22:38:02Z

Eyy that was a satisfying little puzzle game. I think it could do with a quick tutorial but clicking around I got this gist fast. Nice work, love the racoon car

Brain Killer by LiveInside 2023-10-14T20:30:17Z

Beautiful and moody. Gave me a real oppressive sense of dread! Nice entry :)

DISTANZ by Metzkermeister 2023-10-07T22:19:40Z

Great entry. The concept was intuitive to understand straight away and it gets pretty addictive fast! Edging along cautiously as the track gets really thin is nerve-racking! sweet sound track too - synergises well.

Mindwipe by NKooo 2023-10-14T20:39:38Z

Had some performance issues on the mac version, not a great frame rate. The music's great, got me pumped to escape! Really tight iteration on the roguelike element was cool - feels like you're making a lot of progress. Cool entry!

Troubled Turtles by Aviv Levy 2023-10-05T12:55:37Z

Lovely little sokoban mechanics. Really enjoyed the art, the puzzles are great but certainly got tricky quick! Satisfying game, well done!

ALL OUTTA SPACE by Quackqack 2023-10-14T20:19:43Z

Interesting to have the rush for the star and the chill time after. That's a nice spin. Had some fun playing this, really quite addictive but gets hard very fast! Nice entry :)

The Last Capitalist by dixma 2023-10-14T20:10:27Z

The little voxel monsters are cute! This game is hard! I struggled controlling the camera and finding where the monsters were coming from. Though clicking like mad killing these cheeky monsters was fun :)

Stretchmancer by Choo 2023-10-05T13:00:07Z

Thanks for the feedback so far everyone. We're so chuffed people are enjoying it!

@blazejmg917 I'm not aware of any camera snapping. The game should play like the video above your comment. Perhaps you had the mouse sensitivity high (you can change this in the settings by pressing enter)? Would be eager to solve the bug if there is one.

Stretchmancer by Choo 2023-10-05T14:36:56Z

@blazejmg917 awesome thanks so much for double checking! :)

Phone Booth Boxing by exofrenon 2023-10-07T23:01:47Z

Beautiful sprite work. I enjoyed beating the world cup and messing around. I found heavy punches to be quite a dominant strategy, they seemed a little too powerful? Though getting those last few hits with a safer light punch made sense. Would like to see this developed further, the world needs more turn based fighting games!
