LD35 — Shapeshift

Mixle by stoo 2016-04-18T17:21:00

I'm not a huge fan of the game... but I really love the music and the sounds!

Super Shape Show by ChrisMingay 2016-04-18T19:11:00

Very funny game! It reminds me of Wario Ware. Nice work :)

Secret Admirers of the Forest by orion_black 2016-04-20T17:15:00

I didn't understand everything but that was a nice game to play :)
And great graphics!

Morph Ranger by mrnannings 2016-04-18T11:16:00

Nice game! But oh... that green and pink colors hurt my eyes ;)

Yours, Monster by FloatingGhost 2016-04-18T11:31:00

Nice idea! There is a lot of potential.

His Story. Shapeshifters. by Muciojad 2016-04-20T17:53:00

I love the musics. Actually right now I let the end screen in a tab to keep the audio :)
Sad game, but a good sad game...

Simen the snail by BloodJohn 2016-04-18T19:41:00

I don't like mushrooms. Now I know why... they killed me :(

Sub Dragon by deepnight 2016-04-18T20:04:00

Wow. Really love the graphics and everything!

Chaos by ezombort 2016-04-19T18:38:00

Nice music :)

anthropomorphic suspect by dunin 2016-04-18T18:28:00

Love this art. And very funny!

Candylicious by monaarc 2016-04-18T20:14:00

Love the graphics and the colors! Beautiful.

Shape Assault by thomz12 2016-04-18T11:53:00

Wow very satisfying game! I love it.

Chexshift by Tharky 2016-04-20T19:05:00

It makes chess funnier! Well done.

Muoto the Geometry Wizard by Windmill Games 2016-04-20T16:58:00

Really nice!

play by pjimmy 2016-04-18T11:55:00

That's a clever idea

Shape Shifters by SelfTitled 2016-04-18T17:34:00

Really really nice! It felt so satisfying to pack the truck.

gunshift by pixzleone 2016-04-18T18:19:00

Nice game! But yeah... that level 6 must be pixel perfect I guess. Good job :)

Shapeshifter by Sublustris 2016-04-18T17:04:00

I'm not used to play on my phone but it felt good! Nice game.

Taiga Woods by Karai17 2016-04-20T17:09:00

Nice work!
I didn't know about Löve3d, I'll check this out :)

L.I.G.H.T. by Flygamer101 2016-04-18T10:41:00

Game doesn't launch on Mac :(

Forest Rampage by Florent Juch 2016-04-20T17:34:00

I loved the third shape! I'M FLYIIIING!!
Nice work, it was fun :)

Walking Simulator by Arskiainen 2016-04-19T10:35:00

Fun! But food should be bigger, it's hard to see them

SuperFishAl by divegato 2016-04-18T17:53:00

That was fun! Nice work.

HappyNest by Black Horn Studios 2016-04-19T16:54:00

Nice audio!

Crush Your Friends by nextreality 2016-04-20T17:22:00

Very funny. Simple but efficient!

Territoris by bvisness 2016-04-20T18:03:00

Very interesting concept you have here. It would work perfectly on mobile devices. Nice work!

State Of Matter by keksx 2016-04-20T17:18:00

Nice idea! It could be a very interesting combat system :) Good job.

Ludum Bear by DifferentName 2016-04-20T19:15:00

I really liked the panda's round kick :D
The game is fun!

xXShapeShooterXx by karln 2016-04-20T17:29:00

Didn't understand how the triangle works but nice game!

PacShifter by jcmonkey 2016-04-18T10:54:00

Level 3 drove me crazy! The ghost shape lifetime seems different each time... in one run it last 3sec only. A bug maybe?
But nice game though :)

SizeBlock by MrMegawatts 2016-04-18T19:15:00

The end screen made me laugh ;-)

H2Olympics by MacDocBros 2016-04-18T11:32:00

Wrong Dropbox links :/

Escape from the Dungeon of Snor by Weeping Rupee 2016-04-20T18:16:00

The title screen reminds me of FEZ :)
But really nice graphics and atmosphere. Good job!

Human Tetris by Wirdo91 2016-04-18T11:40:00

No way to reset position? After the first panel I was stuck in fetal position for the whole game ^^
But that was kind of fun, nice work.

Shifting Shadows by Max Amaden 2016-04-18T17:14:00

Very good! I finished with 1666 gold :D

Catshift by ragnta 2016-04-18T18:32:00

Cute little cat :D

Reptile Politik by aegypticus 2016-04-18T20:27:00

That's pretty harder on a non-qwerty keyboard (azerty here!). I like those pixels though :)

Shape Escape by JoeManaco 2016-04-17T18:04:00

Really nice!

Egg Clegger by pythong 2016-04-18T19:35:00

I had to stop... so addictive! My finger hurts.
Nice game though!

Morphing Maria by Frozen Fractal 2016-04-21T06:38:00

Nice puzzles and concept! But I really didn't like the sounds though.
Good job :)

Project Catslevania by Marc F. 2016-04-20T18:08:00

Loved that cat :D

Good Morning! It's Animal's Arena by shru 2016-04-19T17:00:00

Cute graphics and nice music :) Well done.

Who Are You And What Are You Doing Here?? by Shatter Point Studios 2016-04-20T19:10:00

It's hard to know what to do sometimes. But wow, there must be a lot of work put in it. Good job :)

SquareShift - Sticky Squares by zugende 2016-04-20T19:26:00

Wow that was very funny. I felt very satisfying to collect blocks and grow :D

Mission: Decomposition by MurderPunch 2016-04-19T18:45:00

Fun game! And nice graphics :)

Black Heart by luquio 2016-04-18T19:05:00

I danced a little

Bounds by Nervous Composers 2016-04-18T18:05:00

I liked the idea. Nice game :)

Go Go Golem by Gamescalation 2016-04-18T20:23:00

Awesome work on graphics!

NekoShift by kostik1337 2016-04-20T18:11:00

Very cute kitty cat :3

Shifty Shapes by simon 2016-04-18T11:23:00

I like the graphics!

Go Away, Zeus! by Crimson713 2016-04-18T18:08:00

Fun and nice graphics :)

Quadripartitus by Phantom Lab 2016-04-18T18:25:00

Nice graphics!

Avoid the Wall Simulator 2016 by avoidwallcrew 2016-04-18T19:30:00

Made me smile :)

Left 4 Gabe 3 by VapeurTeam 2016-04-19T10:38:00

That was fun!

LD39 — Running out of Power

Displaceable source by HolyBlackCat 2017-07-31T11:29:25Z

Amazing graphics! Good job :) Fun game with interesting mechanics, it has potential.

Apocalypse by Manafest 2017-07-31T15:24:31Z

Impressive for a first entry! Congrats on that :tada: The game is hard but fun :)

Lightrunner by dalbinblue 2017-07-31T12:00:46Z

Wow I really like it. Huge fan of the art and the atmosphere. The game is challenging: very hard but with perseverance it's possible :)

Didn't finish it though, sorry! It's so big! (129 screens :scream:)

Jumping Jehosaphat by jharler 2017-07-31T15:19:42Z

Fun puzzle game! Good job :)

Flying Aces - Going the distance! by jotson 2017-07-31T14:48:56Z

Love the graphics! Easy game but it's satisfying to fly around through the clouds :)

Good job!

Erebot by aevek 2017-07-31T10:23:06Z

So good! I really like the mechanics, the puzzles and the art. The GUI needs a lot of polishing though :)

Power or die by Aterlamia 2017-07-31T09:55:21Z

It's really hard to understand how not to die in 5 seconds :sweat_smile: You should slow down power consumption at the beginning and let the player learn the mechanics.

"your incompetence killed us all" this made me laugh :wink:

Really like the music!

Will Power by William Derksen 2017-07-31T10:43:32Z

Fun game but hard right from the beginning! I like the music and the environment :) Well done!

Jeff Long Run by Matoux42 2017-07-31T12:09:09Z

So hard... I can't pass level 2 :cry: I managed to pass the pikes one time after hundreds of attempt... I thought it would be the end... NOPE somethings even harder after :joy:

Jerry The Donut Eating Engine Driver by TheLukker 2017-07-31T10:02:49Z

Confusing at the beginning but then its quite fun. Really like the mood and humor! Nice job :)

D34TH by Falk Bruskeland 2017-07-31T11:39:09Z

That's hard! But it was quite fun. Don't really like the jump though

Run and Slash by Aycan 2017-07-31T11:49:54Z

I like the art, music and sounds effect. Fun game and statisfying when you kill a row of enemies! :)

Power of the glorious nation by Maxi100ful 2017-07-31T11:22:19Z

It's hard to understand what to do exactly. But it has potential none the less! Congrats for you first LD :)

Battery Pack by shashwat 2017-07-31T10:48:20Z

Simple but effective game :) Some work on graphics and animation would add so much!

And Here Again by PerduGames 2017-07-31T10:32:46Z

Really like this dark atmosphere! Good job on that :)

Feed the Machine by SprovGames 2017-07-31T15:11:37Z

Good job! Nice to see another clicker

Congrats for your first entry :)

Mana Manager by bebop 2017-07-31T10:09:39Z

Very fun game! I loved the rain spell, very satisfying, it made me wish I could have unlimited power and spam the world.

Pickup all the power! by acoto87 2017-07-31T10:38:10Z

Nice little puzzle game :)

Don't see the theme too though

Amber-graph by corporatedinc 2017-07-31T10:14:05Z

Simple but effective game, good job. It awakened the Dijkstra in me, long time no see :)

Electric lovers by Virtual Turtle Studio 2017-07-31T11:34:09Z

Hahah it was very funny. I love that our own sweat can kill us :D

Dorgus Needs Power! by WillData 2017-07-31T11:44:04Z

Interesting game, good job :)

Two problems I see: - the cursor is not visible, dark cursor on dark background - batteries fade out too quickly, you need to be very close to enemies you kill to take the loot

LD43 — Sacrifices must be made

Winter Summer Land by tomdeal 2018-12-03T18:41:51Z

Very interesting concept here! The graphics are nice too. And the game feels very complete. There is a lot of content for a compo. Congrats!

Hello operator. by cowa 2018-12-11T09:52:23Z

Thank you everyone for playing my game and leaving feedbacks! I really appreciate.

I know there is a the lack of sounds and musics... But I did not have enough time and energy :cry: Next time I'll do my best to incorporate them early in my development.

Down Below by NicMagnier 2018-12-05T21:47:12Z

Challenging but correctly balanced, it's rare on gamejams, congrats! Very pleasant game, it plays very well.

Big thumb up for the graphics, they are very great :)

The Lamb by f4kethis 2018-12-03T19:05:04Z

Graphics are really good. Congrats! Otherwise the game is not very original, it's an endless runner. BUT the atmosphere is really great. Well done.

Sacrifice Management by Aycan 2018-12-03T20:33:05Z

Nice little puzzle game. The graphics are awesome. The idea is original. Congrats! But I don't think the theme fit perfectly.

VOID_SHOT by NNNIKKI 2018-12-03T18:35:02Z

It seems unfairly hard! The game is not very original but the theme is there.

Good job on your game :)

Göldin by Paul_P1 2018-12-04T21:30:32Z

It looks very good :)

It's a little hard to understand what's going on. Too much chaos!

I played 3 times... graves everywhere. I did not expect a cemetery builder here :sweat_smile:

Congrats on your game!

WAYT by wsKilljoy 2018-12-03T15:32:53Z

That was hard... Good job ;) I'm using Godot engine too, it always a pleasure to play games made with it!

One thing though, I think the theme does not fit really here. But otherwise, it plays very nicely.

Queuest by MateusBoga 2018-12-03T20:12:53Z

Original idea. Congrats :) Really like the graphics.

Death Wish by Derek Volker 2018-12-03T18:58:35Z

Really like the graphics and specially the animations. Really smooth :) Congrats

No Step Back by Zetorama 2018-12-04T21:22:43Z

I am a terrible leader... RIP soldiers.

Interesting concept! It feels like a reverse tower defense, that's something I haven't seen before I think.

Congrats on the game, it plays nicely. A little too hard right at the start though :)

Woodifice by SukantaPatra 2018-12-03T18:49:28Z

@sukantapatra "We couldn't find your page" Did you set the game page on itch.io as "published"? By default its in "draft" and can only be seeing by you (if you are logged)

Boits by torquilmacleod 2018-12-03T18:28:52Z

The art very "pure" reminds of Eufloria! I really like the overall feeling. Nice little game, it plays well :) Boits movements are very smooth, it's satisfying to see them flying all around.

Good job on your game.

MeowByrinth by KiisuK 2018-12-03T20:21:59Z

What a lovely game you made! :) Very cute and fun. Congrats!

Knight Soul Redemption by BGameDev 2018-12-03T18:46:06Z

Wow very solid game. Congrats! I really liked the graphics.

Bhagrifice by Kevin de Beer 2018-12-03T19:23:23Z

Good job! It's a very fun game. The theme works really great here.

Volcano Diver by Slowpro 2018-12-03T18:54:49Z

Good job, it was pleasant to play it :) Not very original but graphics are good

A Key Sacrifice by CalLavicka 2018-12-04T21:15:23Z

(I did not read the description before playing)

At first I was like "ok it's a space shooter". And then a message for remapping a key... that was surprising.

Very interesting idea to match the theme. But it's very painful! :sweat_smile:

Congrats :)

LD46 — Keep it alive

Tamalicious by Satyre 2020-04-21T16:43:27Z

Great music and graphics!

Good job :)

Egde Fault by crazyrems 2020-04-20T12:29:11Z

Cannot run the MacOS build :/

It seems you used Godot. I use it too. When I export for MacOS I get a .dmg

December 20XX by verrazano 2020-04-20T15:40:00Z

The map is huge! I got lost at the beginning...

I really like your game! Enemies are not really threatening and challenging, but that is not something easy to do with such timing.

Only one thing that I didn't like: the pickup sound. We have to pickup wood very often, and the sound is too loud and 'rude'. Something smoother would have been perfect!

Good job on your game! :)

A drop of light. by cowa 2020-04-20T13:47:37Z

@a-312 Thanks for the feedback! I fixed it, the Game Over title was there but it was using the wrong animation... :sweat_smile:

A drop of light. by cowa 2020-04-20T14:01:50Z

@a-312 it's back! I was trying to figure out why it did not work for some people... no idea :/

À la Fenêtre by DocGeraud 2020-04-21T19:54:56Z

A nice relaxing experience! Good job on your game.

Graphics are beautiful and the mood is top notch!

The negotiator by Belea 2020-04-20T19:21:27Z

Clever idea! Well done :)

Last Fortress Left by ConnorThompson 2020-04-20T12:53:05Z

Simple and clean visuals, I really like it. The base idea is clever, more mechanics would make it more challenging.

It could works very well on mobile.

Good job on your game! :D

Please Stay by topbraj 2020-04-20T12:45:35Z

The dance animation is perfect! These little stickboys felt so much alive when dancing, I loved it!

Nice game! Good job :)

Fleur Defense by SamStallion 2020-04-22T08:42:25Z

Very good game! My favorite so far!

Good job the team!

Amalgamage by TheWustache 2020-04-21T10:46:31Z

Nice little game. It works very well. I really like the art!

Zorla's Tavern by Nexushub 2020-04-22T10:01:35Z

Very satisfying game when the plant grows and make devastating attacks! Graphics are really really good, congrats on that.

But the gameplay is very tiring, only fast drag and drop. I did it on a trackpad, it was kind of tedious but I managed to complete it anyway :sweat_smile:

Good job on your game!

Protect The King by Schwarcraft 2020-04-20T17:00:36Z

Nice little game! Congrats for your first game!

One thing to improve would be to add more feedback when hitting enemies, to make it feels like we really hurt them.

Do Starve by distributive 2020-04-20T14:12:06Z

Nice graphics! The creepy atmosphere works really well.

The player feels way too slow.

Good job on your game :)

How to Air by kwaku 2020-04-22T09:46:39Z

Nice little game!

I really like the art, my favorite so far.

I got stuck with the medkit, the only item remaining. I wasn't able to pick it up.

Anyway, good job on your game. You did great!

Bondfire by daidiimon 2020-04-21T18:04:51Z

Nice clean graphics! The shooting feels really good.

Good job on your game :)

Magic Mirror Delivery Service by Zerion 2020-04-21T17:51:25Z

Really cool game! Good job :)

Graceful Planet by 3ago_ 2020-04-21T18:00:20Z

Very cool looking game!

Gameplay is good, but too hard (at least for me). With a smaller hitbox on the planet, it would maybe work better.

Good job!

Offering by sanjuro 2020-04-20T14:15:52Z

Good job on your game!

Overall it's a nice game, it feels good :)

The Dark Cave by Tom Stephenson 2020-04-22T09:31:34Z

Hello there! We actually use the same graphics and atmosphere style :D

But a total different take on theme and mechanics.

So unsurprisingly... I really like the graphics and the dark mood.

The spider is really impressive, well done!

Eggsploration by ChickenCastle 2020-04-21T10:53:07Z

Good job on your game!

Simple but working well :) Enemies were too small, it was hard to see them. But that was your goal maybe.

LD41 — Combine 2 Incompatible Genres

Tales from Avanor by theviraldragon 2018-04-23T19:18:08Z

Very clever idea. The book UI is so nice and clean. It's very satisfying... Good work!

RTHM by fashionbatman 2018-04-24T19:16:58Z

Excellent music! Once I get the right timing, it was surprisingly satisfying! Good job :)

Matching Towers by sky_fighter 2018-04-24T16:45:57Z

Really cool game! The idea is very interesting and it works well. Graphics however make the board quite difficult to read. Mixing tiles with white and black borders is not great on the eyes ;)

Good job on making the game!

Super Bigbo Commando by harusame 2018-04-24T16:54:01Z

Dat zoom effect on jumping! Very clever! :) Nice game overall, I enjoyed playing it. Good job, keep going!

Garden Symphony by cowa 2018-04-24T18:27:09Z

@rohan Ahah that's awesome! Thanks a lot for sharing a screenshot :) Very glad you enjoyed it!

Garden Symphony by cowa 2018-05-14T09:33:04Z

Thank you @eggnot on playing my game on stream! I really appreciate :heart: It was very interesting and fun to watch someone else play my game!

Thanks for the feedback :)

Rythmer by TheWGBbroz 2018-04-23T20:02:17Z

Not sure if I managed to find the beat ^^ But really cool concept. It has potential. Good job!

Idle Shooter by NicMagnier 2018-04-23T11:22:37Z

Very satisfying game! Really like all these sounds when grabbing the money *o*

Good job :)

Cocaine McBain - A Farm Rush Adventure by Goat Toaster Games 2018-04-25T15:29:22Z

Very fun game! And beautiful graphics! Well done!

Card Rush by EggshellDog 2018-04-24T17:11:43Z

It's impressive to see so many card games for this LD! Is this a trending genre today? ;)

Very cool concept anyway, with potential. Well done :)

FarmPunch by F14K-3R 2018-04-24T17:30:10Z

Nice graphics, it works well :) Don't really understood how the fight works, but I managed to win on my second try.

Good job! Keep going :)

Plenty of Fish by PaterJosch 2018-04-24T17:44:23Z

Nice little game. Really liked the art style :)

Good job!

Sleeping Titanium by Poorwill 2018-04-25T11:12:43Z

Simple but addictive!

GuitarPicks by Solnak 2018-04-24T17:19:29Z

Very nice graphics. I really loved when elders slipped on water. I made me laugh :)

Good job on the game!

International Survival Soccer by Gaming Night 2018-04-27T19:31:27Z

Very interesting idea! Good job on implementing it :) The astmosphere is really well done, very creepy!

TD Racing by AllesKapaul 2018-04-23T19:07:00Z

Controls are kind of weird at first. It feels too slow and unresponsive. But good job on making this game!

Danmakoïd - Bullet hell metroidvania by Talops 2018-04-27T19:13:47Z

Very cool game! Really liked the graphics. Good job!

Unojo temple by Korteh 2018-04-23T19:40:56Z

Can't run the game on Mac, it crashes at launch (no error on console) :/

Unojo temple by Korteh 2018-04-24T19:04:22Z

Finally played the game! (on Windows) Really liked graphics. Colors are beautiful!

Good job :)

Resident Racing by Augunrik 2018-04-23T19:29:10Z

Controls feel strange, not enough responsive. It's hard to really feel we control the car. But anyway I actually got scared and didn't wanted to die... so good job on the game!

Platform Pets by CeZaN 2018-04-25T10:10:11Z

Controls with the mouse swiping is very difficult. Why not use the keyboard and arrow keys? ^^

Anyway cool mixture, it has potential. And big thumb up for the cat, who kind of remind me of my own!

Congrats :)

Real Text Adventure by honpray 2018-04-25T08:00:06Z

​I was sceptic at first but it was surprisingly fun and satisfying! Very original! Really liked the attack animation.

Oh but I don't really understand why I had to kill those tree :(

Split body parts of enemies by their letters on the ground when you killed them is a brilliant idea.

Nice job on making the game!

A journey of the block by TomekS 2018-04-24T17:36:47Z

Wow graphics are very well done :o Very clever concept.

Good job!

Candy crush your own adventure by Hanra 2018-04-24T17:00:38Z

Don't really like to read a lot of text (TL;DR team). I focused on the 3-match game... and somehow I managed to have a good ending! Clever concept anyway, and well done executed.

Good job :)

Cat Pack by Potondo 2018-04-23T19:34:38Z

So hard... Good job on making the game! Keep going :)

Frogs vs. Cats by cincodenada 2018-04-24T17:25:51Z

Really liked how the frog looks. Its animations are very well done. And the boucing cat head made me laugh..!

Good job on making the game :)

The Third Scattering by mbrezu 2018-04-23T19:54:23Z

Nice! It makes match-3 more challenging and strategic. Really like the effects and the overall art. Good job!

Indeed the concept is very interesting and has a lot of potential... Really liked to pick object and throw them in the cauldron :) Feels satisfying.

Good job on making the game!
