You dismissed the theme completelly. It was a really great and inspired experience, congratulations. Every mechanic work flawlessly to reinforce the emotions. Great work.
Interesting idea. It's difficult to find how to move the golems, maybe put buttons or hint a little where to click will be a good idea. With procedural level generation it may work pretty good. If you have never practiced with Blender you did a good work in a little time. Congratulations :-)
Very good script and interesting concept.
I like the game feel, the character animation reinforces the idea of weight and passing of time. Don't fit very well on the jam theme but it's an interesting idea tho.
Good art, and a fun core mechanic. It seems that the firing needs some tunning, a bit more difficulty. But a simple and good game overall.
Very very interesting, i found myself lost at first, but was i enojoyed myself. Good work!
I'm really impresed by this game. The game feel and the core mechanics works pretty well. The text works well introducing you to the world and the nature of the Sentinels. The animations of the player character and weapon needs some improvements but i like the Sentinels animations. The inspiration from Shadow of the Colossus is evident but it doesn´t detract from his merits. Very good entry.
It's a good game but is poorly optimized, very low FPS on a medium machine. The core mechanic is interesting but the first player seems to have a little advantage over the second.
A very good game. The dialog is great. I like the smoke effect that difficults the vision just like that weapons do it in real life. The reload mechanic is fun and interesting at first and it destroys your hand very quickly and becomes a little dumb, but is very realistic. A good game overall. Great work
Good submission. Very creepy! Love the atmosphere and the end :-)
A little difficult to understand at first, but fun and adictive when you learn the ropes. Good sound and graphics. Cool concept.
It seems that you cannot die and the granade didn't work. Also the resolution to play is very low. It was a good idea tho. Keep improving!
I cannot open the game on Windows. Y use the Win_x32 executable that i found on itch.io
Camera perspective made difficult to calculate plattforming, and controls aren't well polished, but i enjoyed myself. It's very difficult too.
Good work. There are some issues with movement, but the game plays nicely and it's very difficult and fun to play. Great entry :-)
Collected all the coins. Great concept, i want to hate you for all the grind but can't :-D
Really cool game. I get immersed quick and you keep me engaged (you also scared me a lot, lol). Good work.
Cool graphics, and fun to play. It doesn't fit the theme tho.
Very experimental, interesting movement. I suppose that your were trying to make the player feel like an alien using a control scheme so weird. Interesting, good job.
I tried several times to pass the first part but the "character" cant reach the purple box, it stops after a few seconds. I love experimental games, hope this one works good for you. Keep making games!
A very interesting and fun game. Very simple controls and totally fits the theme of the jam.
Good idea and graphics. The screen blinks sometimes for me on windows. It's very hard to survive, i like the mechanic of repairing the windows, but you are swarming with enemies to quick. Good work!
Interesting game. Good work. I don't know if the typos are intended or not (gaem over, lol), but i like them.
Great entry, i love the sound and the graphics. The stories and age progression are a great idea. Cool concept, great work.
As said above, for the Ludum Dare Compo you need to create all the assets by yourself in 48 hours and the character that you use is here: http://www.2dgameartguru.com/2012/04/top-down-view-soldier.html (Post is dated April 2012) so this would be a jam game, not compo.
However, good try and keep improving for the next editions!
Cool concept, but the game is very unresponsive to player interaction, also, it's difficult to figure out how to survive (i died a lot of times before i understand how to consume food or drink). Good try however. Also, you MUST submit the source for the compo.
Interesting game. Good work on the graphics.
Good twist on the theme mate, really interesting. Short and to the point. I hope we all escape this networking era soon :D
Good job on the game. It has good graphics and the monsters are pretty good. The orientation is very difficult (all corridors look the same) and i get lost very quick, the game will improve a lot with some help for the player on that part. Overall: Good job, a fun game.
Seems that this entry is broken. Web link doesn't work.
Good try mate. Not bad for a first project. If you die but keep hitting space you keep firing so you can kill the robot even dead. Also the fruits die if you shoot at them, and the enemy life is sooooooooo high. Keep working ;)
I don't like installers very much in the first place. Love the art style and the humor of the game. Some things were broken (one granny walking over a closed door) and is a bit difficult to see if your actions are working or not. But funny overall. Good job.
The link seems broken, at least for me.
Great art and music. I like how the story is told to the player at a slow pace, giving time to catch with the surreal experience. I hope you can get rid of those bugs so more people could get to the end of the story. Great work.
Interesting concept and i love the art. It will require some balancing to make it really enjoyable though. I would like to see this game fully developed.
Aninteresting game, it's a pitty that you didn't had time to develop it further. The take on the theme is very good and the controls are very well developed. Good work!
Good work! The art is nice and the gameplay is simple and straightforward. The fire grows too quick and some times it just appears below your feet without warning just after you extinguish it, tho. ALso, one house is not one room, lol. But good game overall :-)
Really cool concept and pretty well executed. The art is great and "narrative" is simple but direct. Great work :)
Interesting take on the theme, but the mechanics lack clarity. Too many ingredients and low feedback for the player. Good entry overall, great work.
Great concept. I enjoyed the game. I don't know if the answer where completelly random, it will add some complexity and fun if you could predict the answer somehow and plan ahead. Really great work, congrats.
Great entry. The gameplay is simple but it is very addictive. Also the room mechanic creates a good experience. A leaderboard would be awesome to play with friends. Great job!
I fear that i cannot play the game as there is no executable.
This is a very interesting project, thank you for providing a link to the development video, i'm sure is a fun watch (i save it for later). The game works good and is fun to play. Good work!
Good concept and graphics of your room are very cool. I think that the game would improve if there is someway to move the camara so you could see where you are going. Good entry overall, great job!
Good game, but very demanding for my computer. The mechanic is simple and yet compelling. Difficult to save all the crew at least for me. Good work.
Interesting, i like this type of games. Very personal. The interaction system is very cool and well developed.
The game is very buggy and poor optimized. The camera is weird i fear. The story is interesting and the dialog system seems to work fine. Sometimes the objectives didn't advance and is a bit frustrating.
Interesting concept, truly innovative. Grew a little bored over time, but the storytelling of the characters live is cool. Good work.
Great entry, a bit difficult to understand at first, but the sounds and graphics really are scary. Good work.
A really cool concept, i love the procedural changing map. The retro style sure add to the mood. It seems a very good idea to develop further. Good job!
PD: The game freezes sometimes on the web browser, maybe because of my computer.
Great jokes. A simple detective game, very well fitted with the theme. Controls are a bit weird and i needed some time to get used to them.
This game is impressive. Really cool concept, very innovative. You can't stop deliver this masterpieces, did you? Lol.
I'm very bad at plattforming :-P. Good entry, the take on the theme is a bit lacky i fear.
i really like the animation of the character and the difficulty. It's a good job for so little time. I find the doble jump difficult, but maybe my fault.
Good try but, as someone has pointed, this is not a very entertaining game. The gameplay is not well explained and the controls are weird. It seems that this could have make a good game with some more time to work.
Interesting take on the theme. It's fun to kill people with chainsaws (even when i don't know from where they keep coming lol). Cool graphics and mechanics. Good work.
I expected some decisions or some interaction that i can perform more than clicking the entire story. Good art.
Man, this game is hilarious. Great art and sound, you catch the theme very well. Congratulations.
Really interesting idea. Cool concept and graphics. I suck at this type of games so for me is very difficult to get a lot of points. Really good executed, the only problem that i found is that the camera is slow and i get a little tired after a while. One of the best games that i played yet. Great work!
Good work, a lot of features for a 48h game. The character moves slow and fast enemies catch you too quick to kill them. If you buy the machine gun the shots fires from afar the character so you can't kill an enemy on melee. Good work overall.
This has been funny, not my style of game, but funny ;)
Cool concept, very interesting. The gameplay is a bit difficult to understand, maybe with more visual clues the game could improve quite a bit. Very good work.
Great game, i really enjoyed it and it seems that i need some medical assistance xD
Great interpretation of the theme and superb execution. The game delivers a great and frustrating experience. Performance issues are very great however.
Very good work, the art and sound are one of the best that i've rated so far. It's fun and the concept is simple and well coded. Thanks for the entry.
Good work, the game plays well and the challenges are very engaging.
Simple and very difficult, plays nicely on my computer. The options seems to be broken and the controls are a bit counter-intuitive tho.
Simple and fun game, i like the sword animation a lot. The robot explosions make the game a little laggy but they are cool. The game lacks an End Game screen or something at the end and when you die and it's difficult to know when you are hit.
The idea seems interesting, but it's very hard to figure out what you need to do. I tried almost 10 minutes until i figure how to use the portals and still i cannot solve the first room. As someone has suggested this game needs a tutorial or better visual hints to help the player understand it.
This game is fun. I like the dogs, lol. Great gameplay and the sound is very good. Good job.
Thanks for the feedback @slimabob! I'll keep working and improving my skills so i can make a better game in the future :-)
Hi Artsicle can you give me more information please? What version were you trying to download and what is the error that it gives to you?
Thanks for the feedback Aun, i'll take note of your comments for the post-compo version. The motion sickness is a bit intended, i was trying to make the player think and plan ahead their moves instead of just clicking around at crazy. I wanted to create a "pause menu" so you can pause and read the instructions again but runned out of time.
Thank you all for all the feedback :-)
I'll try to upload a Linux binary as well this night as soon as i reach home.
Those with problems with the web versión, are you a Mac user? Which browser are you using?
Despite the problems with aiming in the web version, the game works pretty well and the puzzles are very challenging. Great work.
Great game idea and concept, and the graphics are one of the best that i have found till now. Great work quill.
I detect some retard on the controls tho, maybe the only thing that i think that detracts from the experience.
Congrats, great submission. Keep working and improving!
Interesting use of the 2D art vs 3D enviroment. Gameplay is a bit weird, it could be improved with some more info for the player. Good work.
It's a good grind, phew! :-)
Good game, very simple and to the point. The graphics are very cool too. Maybe you could add some more layers of difficulty with some other stats. Very good work.
It's simple and well executed. ALso, very fun! As you say, it's not so innovative, but you give the game your style and there are good features (i like the part when the scoring panel disapears). Good work.
