LD46 — Keep it alive

Balloon Rush by CocaPasteque 2020-04-22T03:48:58Z

Interesting, maybe could try to add a bit of animation on the balloon, to make it more floppy so we get the wind effect better. Also the cute cat head, even a very small one, out of the balloon would be engaging, make us worrying more about the cat... !

Più, a bird song by Ekilibr 2020-04-21T11:14:31Z

nice art work and atmosphere, very smooth.

Protektor by rujo 2020-05-03T04:38:23Z

very smooth and fun, we need more levels !

Lost Goblins by pndaa 2020-04-21T12:59:33Z

Interesting gameplay ! Refine the tutorial ;)

Mothership by Marcionix 2020-05-02T04:07:09Z

love the graphics, I can see some efforts them ! Maybe work more on themap tiles, but appreciated you didnt use free assets whatever in your game, try to stay original !

A drop of light. by cowa 2020-04-21T06:29:38Z

This is a nice game for relaxing between works ;p

Firestarter by Snowdrama 2020-04-21T04:24:05Z

nice little game, really got the simcity 1 vibe, hiopefully you could do a small walking animation for the characters! Also maybe some tweaks about the acceleration / deceleration of the player so it got some momentum and its harder to control / escape from the police.

Experiment #0 by FTZ 2020-04-22T11:53:35Z

finally a game that match the theme of the Jam ! Really appreciate the effort and mood !

MACHINA by Harry Alissavakis 2020-04-22T14:11:23Z

nice gameplay, original game... saved on itch, keep updating it ! ;)

RunZ by marccspro 2020-05-02T04:00:48Z

Nice old Doom feeling with this one! Maybe you could make the controls a bit more snappy !

HarakiRun by Drioniso 2020-04-21T12:52:06Z

thats a nice little plateform ! nice and orginal art style, something that we dont often see in video game, did you take some magic biscuits ? btw itsa bit sluggish for the fps on my side, anyway could optimize a bit ? That guy is too fat, I need more precise moment !

Hope by Darylsteak 2020-04-21T09:29:15Z

amazing art direction ! neat !

Keep Him Alive by Lamossus 2020-05-02T04:01:41Z

Very cute pixel art ! keep it up !

Sunlit by palsina 2020-04-23T11:07:13Z

this game is unique and really matching the same, thansk for sharing ;)

B.U.B.B.A. Express by Pizzasgood 2020-04-21T07:11:56Z

the house is so cool, neat little idea, try to make the character animation and physics more fast and interesting !

The Dragon's Curse by Aditya Kumar 2020-04-21T14:26:32Z

Always appreciating original artwork, keep going ! Maybe could replace some small graphics element by handdrawings as well, to keep the style altogether.

Dino spin by relixes 2020-04-21T04:56:49Z

so satisfying when you finally can get some nice movement, most funny game so far, movements feel polished.

Keep chicks alive! by Sleeping Panda Games 2020-04-21T11:03:25Z

I'm a simple person, I see gameboy grahics = 5 ratings ;P nice mechanics and music

Remember, Apollo by AdamCYounis 2020-04-28T17:04:40Z

Really appreciate some nice compo quality game, wish more would follow your path ! keep it up !

Xenov: Ascension by Alxertion 2020-04-28T17:00:04Z

love the clean graphics ;)

Keep the Planet Alive by TheNumberYellow 2020-04-21T04:25:00Z

Also share OSX exec please ! If possible.

System Breach by matsuya 2020-04-21T14:42:41Z

lvoe the vibe ! Update the UI if possible, also I think its too big! Maybe you could try a nice HUD more integrated into your design style, and get the vib from doom/quake

Simple, Don't Die by Thompson 2020-04-21T07:09:11Z

nice little game, maybe add animtion of the side wall crawling so we understand better this movement !

DOC+ORS by bixarrio 2020-04-21T02:12:47Z

graphic style is nice, mood is good !

Feed The Flames by Yahel Dooley 2020-04-21T11:11:01Z

Nice mood, remember me of "the long dark" pixel edition! let's try to had some wolfs...

Medic! Keep'em Alive by Robert Li 2020-04-21T04:52:49Z

looks coo, sega master system vibe here ! Please make the enemies visible and gunning around, would be so fun !

Protect The Light! by runrajrun 2020-04-22T13:54:48Z

best project yet here, perfectly match the theme !

Flower Defense by Andy Herbert 2020-04-24T13:49:17Z

Agree, it nice but control need to be improved, now its a bit too frustating. maybe just allow the player to bounce around without damages ? You could always have a hardcore mode and keep these damages.

The Lightwielder - Ludum Dare 46 by 1StepCloser 2020-04-21T06:18:09Z

Hello guys, really thanks a lot for the feedbacks ! Yes we have a problem with the gameplay mechanics because lack of time of testing. Its very hard to balance the gameplay. There are also pixelart cutscene that explains how to play and why, but haven't got the time to put it yet ! Hopefully we can update it soon !

The Lightwielder - Ludum Dare 46 by 1StepCloser 2020-04-21T14:29:55Z

Thanks for all the nice comments and feedbacks, we are aware it's a bit confusing for the gameplay, we didnt have the time for a proper mini tutorial. We wantd to have a very original gameplay but we fall into it and didnt realize it was not so straightforward for newcomers. We gonna update it with a tutorial soon !

The Lightwielder - Ludum Dare 46 by 1StepCloser 2020-04-22T09:32:49Z

@torh I post on that website : https://www.indiexpo.net/en/games/the-lightwielder But that website doesnt have an HTML5 player on the page? downlaod the zip isnt very convenient... thanks for your interest btw !

The Lightwielder - Ludum Dare 46 by 1StepCloser 2020-04-23T11:02:26Z

Hello @SplitPainter Im a bit fan of "a Link to the Past" but dont like the new zeldas ;) The light deers are inspired of my own sculpture artwork I do on the side Many aspect of the gameplay were developed by us during the jam, its for this reason its very unpolished for now and we did many hotfixes.deer2.jpg but with all the feedbcaks we are improving step by step, or should I say @1stepcloser at a time xD

The Lightwielder - Ludum Dare 46 by 1StepCloser 2020-04-23T11:04:33Z

@simon-rahnasto indeed Mr Hayao Miyazaki is a huge influence for me !

The Lightwielder - Ludum Dare 46 by 1StepCloser 2020-04-23T13:34:45Z

@AbdurrahmanKhallouf sorry to learn that. http://www.miragemakers.co/thelightwielder try this link ? yes I have the same problem on mac with the press c thing. try this HTML link and tell us if its ok, lets find a solution. ;)

The Lightwielder - Ludum Dare 46 by 1StepCloser 2020-04-23T13:37:15Z

Guys @krapht @chocolat-endive choux fleur de lys Im amazed you win so much because even we created it I can barely survive to meet the octopus haha... kuddo to you for being good gamers. we didnt have the time to put the end, I did made the end cut scene (lost or won) but we didnt have time to implement it unfortunatly, but will will add it in the future. also chocolat endive is funny french name ;P

Keep the Triangle alive! by Abb1x 2020-04-21T14:07:28Z

pure and simple design, virtualboy mood !

Runner 2049 by inact1v1ty 2020-04-21T04:55:40Z

game is quite nice, jsut take care about the blurry effects and lighting, maybe try to keep it pixel art ? I think its possible to keep interesting effects but keep the style together.

pestilentia by ATTX 2020-04-21T06:38:12Z

nice little game gameboy style, music is quite fitting! Looking forward to see what you can come up with level design, using huge levels and complexity but keep it lo-fi

Kill the undead - keep her alive (for as long as you can) by Gaspar Laprida 2020-04-22T03:26:53Z

One of the very first game I tried, the voices make it ! why did you take of the audio rating? The audio is awesome haha, love the voice and screaming, it makes for 90% of the game for me ! And yeah if you can hotfix some of the gameplay/control it would be nice

Miracle by Maroon_goof 2020-04-21T05:03:47Z

Atari 1600 vibe! Love the graphic. it's very relaxing.

Sperm Dodger 2020 by LudumDarer 2020-04-19T17:48:39Z

most funny game so far xD

Leading Light by Amdra 2020-04-21T10:55:53Z

cute little game, like the design, clean and neat. maybe can improve the jump system ? Looks clunky to me, hard to move around. Also the light beams are dangerous or not? why why not ?

Watch out, silly pets. by Codeer 2020-04-21T12:19:21Z

really smooth gameplay, nice work on the game mechanics. I want to see more level design !

Paradigm by nspevacek 2020-04-21T04:37:02Z

love the aesthetic, as others said, speed up the beginning, Like the simplicity and the perks, Also a bounce perk would be fun, to desorbit/reflect some asteroids.

LD51 — Every 10 seconds

The Phaser Machine by LeReveur 2022-10-16T12:08:11Z

Great concept and execution ! Its really interesting, maybe just need some sound to add atmosphere ! Keep improving !

ShortDay Survive by rayriver 2022-10-07T09:53:35Z

Clear gameplay and cute graphics, controls are a bit sluggish tho! Love the little green enemies !

10 Seconds or Less by kleinzach 2022-10-16T12:22:41Z

is this the new paper boy? Love voxel art ;)

Catreams by firellon 2022-10-08T10:25:10Z

Nice mood and great effort on the graphics. It is indeed relaxing !

Tecton Inc. by notnasiul 2022-10-07T09:46:41Z

Good gameplay difficulty/balance. Cute graphics. It was a pleasure to try the game ! (make me want to do something in pico8 ;p)

360° MICROSCOPE by Brendo 2022-10-16T12:11:44Z

Quite cute! Game mechanics work nicely, however Im not sure what is a germ and what is not, visually. Maybe use a more distinct color codes or icons... ;)

> deploy helper bot by Chartle 2022-10-04T11:59:12Z

Really nice handdraw artwork, gameplay also smooth! Maybe too much of backtracking but at least the game play is quite unique !

Tiny Jukebox by bobo_oh 2022-10-04T00:44:36Z

Usually I'm not into these kind of music game but your jukebox is way to cute ! Impossible not to smile while playing, good job !

A Simple Job by kavehes 2022-10-08T22:54:22Z

Hey, I dont have the playdate but it seems very interesting, thanks to talk about it ! I could only see your video but the graphics looks really cool, as well as the game play.

Baja Blasters: The Toll Bells for Thee by theslate 2022-10-08T10:26:54Z

Interesting graphics ;)

The Fabulous */10 Song by OadT 2022-10-08T10:32:12Z

Always nice to play games about music, thanks a lot ! Humour is funky as well !

Tempore by nidjo123 2022-10-04T12:18:02Z

Very fun (and scary af!!) game. It's funny how the turn by turn make it very tense ! Good job :) Maybe you could add a better sound design, as the sound is repeating a lot it will improve the experience I think !

1000 Meters to Shade by PBG 2022-10-07T09:49:37Z

Very interesting graphics for this game ! And nice use of the theme !

Long Shot by F1Krazy 2022-10-04T00:31:36Z

Keep going, quite challenging !

Kill Team 10 - Badasses On Patrol by Human Writes Code 2022-10-09T23:45:17Z

Funny little game, maybe speed up the pace ! ;p

[WebGL/HTML5] Music Demon by leorid 2022-10-05T11:54:10Z

Interesting game mechanic, animation is funny, control a bit sloppy tho ! Keep going ;) (good choice of music btw !)

Fading Sun by sensei 2022-10-04T12:32:48Z

Great atmosphere, I like how you randomly places objects there and there. Appreciate the effort for original artwork, it pays off. Just controls are a bit sloppy, it's hard to navigate into it. Feeling like on ice ! Keep going ;)

B.R.B by sash-a 2022-10-03T23:42:16Z

The ghost/rewind mechanic is very interesting, just need to work on some more art and animations and it would be a nice rogue game !

By The Bullet by Nakami 2022-10-03T23:58:21Z

Really feel like Sumo sport from the future! I like the graphics it's simple but elegant. Maybe we could have better control, as the game is quite into the action, I was confused by the use of the mouse first. Keep going !

Utgard by OddSocks 2022-10-04T12:26:45Z

Cute grass ! No sound on my side? For the 10s timing maybe it could be link to the archer guy? To make it more meaningful. Keep going !

Manta Fighter by Pincushion 2022-10-04T00:15:45Z

Feeling of the gameplay is quite smooth and good, jsut need better sound effects and graphics (for the explosion) I like the artistic choices of the game, remind me of Terminal Velocity.

Oh no! by Thiago Nascimento 2022-10-03T23:37:11Z

I got way to many heartbreaks haha, I think the 3d models are nice and cute, Also I like the in and out of the drawers, works well. Worth to continue to develop it more, with sounds (and also better control ! the E is too close to the AWSD, put it somewhere on the right of the keyboard se we can use our right hand !). Good job !

Space Chase by DanielRMorgan 2022-10-03T23:47:08Z

Good job, actually - unlike majority of games - we can play in browser and the game works good. Congrats for that ! The stars background is actually quite cool at the begining, the sort of warping effect. Not sure about the projectile going in diagonal I don't know if it's on purpose !

HeartBeat by chromaphase 2022-10-04T00:26:34Z

As I see some of you are confused. The tray is used to reflect the light on the generator to kill the bad seeds on it. I'm aware it's an adventure game so it can be a bit confusing ;p

HeartBeat by chromaphase 2022-10-04T00:28:27Z

When you play, press F for fullscreen. @maxi-ruffo ! it's in the menu and in the description ! @boxedmeatrevolution You did ! It's part of the game to find how to reflect the light on the generator.

HeartBeat by chromaphase 2022-10-04T11:35:57Z

@bobo-oh thanks ! Yes Im looking to make it more difficult !

HeartBeat by chromaphase 2022-10-05T22:02:45Z

Hello guys I put a little intro sentence at the beginning, hopefully it would be a bit less confusing now. Hopefully ;)

HeartBeat by chromaphase 2022-10-06T23:27:09Z

@f1krazy Hey, Thanks for trying. It's very strange because the game works on every mac/win/chrome/safari, even old iphone 7 no updated... can you play my other games like Existence https://chromaphase.itch.io/existence because its exactly the same code for movement etc... let me know thanks !!

HeartBeat by chromaphase 2022-10-06T23:29:22Z

@stealcase Thanks for the feedbacks, you can check my other game named "Existence" its more slow paced, I think the problem with heartbeat is that the 10s thingy makes it a bit stressful and we dont have time to think about the story/puzzle. It was to try something different but seems its really suffer from the urgency (both the jam urgency and the in-game urgency!)

HeartBeat by chromaphase 2022-10-06T23:30:34Z

@nickpick Thanks ! Actually I know but my code skillz ain't good enough to make it faster, because I cannot really control the speed well, the push mechanic is kind of buggy, I tried to make it looks like less buggy tho, so itsnt blinking or jumping all over haha, but cannot change speed for now, I will work on this asap...

HeartBeat by chromaphase 2022-10-07T08:57:19Z

@paul-avallone Thanks for trying the game, you can only push the box when you are in the dark world ;p I think the stress of the game mechanic isnt working well with adventure/story based game. I learnt ;p

HeartBeat by chromaphase 2022-10-08T10:18:25Z

Haha funky ;p Its the metal tray used to reflect the light !! Thanks for playing.

Radar Rider by 3LSTMsInATrenchcoat 2022-10-04T00:21:41Z

I quite like it but because of the 10 seconds it's a bit slow! An idea would be to do it with a grid so we can try to calculate how to move between the radar swap ? Some ennemies would be good too ! Like in the board game battleship, Great atmosphere and the graphics and sounds are well done.

Edit: @anxiousgamedev idea is also quite nice. For now it doesn't reward risk !

Natures by Pranav Sai Arra 2022-10-04T12:24:21Z

It's loading but cannot press start ! Try to upload it on itch.io, their player works very well. You can put the link on this page as well. Let us know...

Blade Gunner 2022 by nohac 2022-10-04T11:41:04Z

Good atmosphere and graphics ! Could have add more of the theme into it maybe? ;)

Water Drop by Stealcase 2022-10-04T12:03:57Z

Hello, your game isn't loading on the page, please add a link to download or maybe create a page on itch.io (its easier to embed a HTML5 game there, less restriction. and you can put the link on this page. Let us know, yur game seems cool.

Constellation by lord_blackheart 2022-10-04T12:22:38Z

Interesting and surprising gameplay, very relaxing ! Art work is very nice and I was impressed when it suddenly switch to 3D ! Sometimes the control/gameplay is a bit weird, I think if you can improve on this, it would be a solid little learning game !

The Method Equator by AdamPhoebe 2022-10-03T23:54:07Z

Hello, I was NOT prepared for the first level ! It's really cool concept when we finally understand how to play. Good tutorial... really needed !

Echo by XariusExcl 2022-10-04T12:28:52Z

Very cool game, the gameplay is really well done, works well and the theme is well used into it ! Keep developping it ;)

10 Minute Apocalypse by JuanRod707 2022-10-04T00:42:11Z

Control and gameplay quite responsive ! Getting better and better as I kept playing, good job !

Pressure: Force Over Area by Caerind 2022-10-08T22:47:01Z

This game is excellent ! Godo pace and the game mechanic is super original ! Keep improving it with good graphics, it got potential !

Resonance by Mediflect 2022-10-04T00:07:44Z

Interesting gameplay, The first room remind me of the movie Cube! Really nice atmosphere, musique and overall mood. Quite polished already.

Squirrel Time by Finn Pickart 2022-10-04T11:50:56Z

Very cute ! Music is very nice by the way!

DEEP DIVE by Oakhardt 2022-10-04T00:34:33Z

Nice art style and puzzle, a bit confused by the control tho ! Beautiful color theme by the way !

Reload by dod108 2022-10-05T11:56:02Z

Nice little graphics !

Is this your Order? by martinboue 2022-10-08T10:34:28Z

Nice little world you got there ! And good game mechanics matching the theme !

Web-Cleaner by Heming Ruan 2022-10-04T12:02:32Z

One of the best game I played! Love the humour and gameplay, it's very funny and unexpected ! Good job !

Stormlight Manor by RogueBrain 2022-10-05T11:52:04Z

Very cute ! Nice gamemechanic that fit the theme, the little music is cool too. Just waiting for more sprite animation ;)

Counterspell by witchpixels 2022-10-08T21:12:38Z

Nice art work and gameplay ! Very efficient, wish you would have done more levels !

Not Late, Or Early by ShaunShepherd 2022-10-16T12:03:57Z

Very nice and cute, sound is a bit harsh tho! If you could change the tempo sound somewhat! Even if its hard to do this kind of sound in the 8bits style... ;)

ENDOOR by YakovDavis 2022-10-04T12:12:09Z

Hi, I downloaded the game but when I play I cannot interact with anything... press E doesnt bring up anything, let me know if Im doing something wrong !

Graveyard Scramble by pauly3d 2022-10-16T12:17:56Z

Very nice game, nice graphics and its always nice to play pico8 games! Theme could have been used better I guess, but at the same time that theme ruined a lot of games here! Very cute sprite animations btw !

Cockroach Hooray by NickPick 2022-10-04T00:11:38Z

I'm a simple person. I see cockroach, then I want to play ;) The game is very cute, and I quite like in the darkness, it's kind of scary the life of a cockroach! You just need to add some good sound design and we gonna really believe in this cockroach life !

Slime Dungeon Escape by Cheesecube 2022-10-16T12:14:32Z

Nice try here, maybe add more difficulty to the game, the slimes could move more maybe? When I played, they just move 2-3 steps, while we can move 10 steps. To easy to avoid them !

Hasteland by savorytoast 2022-10-04T11:45:32Z

Struggling on the HTML5 with the mouse (the cursor doesn't match the mouse position) Maybe because itsn't full screen ? Maybe add a fullscreen button. Nice little atmosphere and cool to see this kind of game in the jam!

Fish Knight by DiscoMusic 2022-10-04T00:38:59Z

This game is so funny, nice art too ! That classic music is bonker when we play !!

Stable Instability by TopHat Bolt 2022-10-16T12:21:38Z

Nice concept and gameplay, keep going !

Colour Chaos! by CantThinkOfAName 2022-10-16T12:20:22Z

Good dynamics, maybe its missing some little music to give some tempo!

Labyrinthos by Armgarr 2022-10-04T12:07:59Z

Great game, you really made the theme work very well with the wall/maze reshaping, it really adds to the game play. Also I love the greek inspiration from the future ;p Just try to add more lights (fire torches maybe there and there) so we can see a bit clearer. Keep going !

edit: It works well for me in the page !

Flippy Bot by Kabura 2022-10-08T22:51:50Z

Good game ! I like the 10 seconds theme use. I think the only small problem is that sometiems the switch is happening at the wrong moment and its then impossible to win... Maybe there could be some rules for the obstacles so it let us a bit time to react at least ! Keep going !
