LD41 — Combine 2 Incompatible Genres

Magneto De Liquidus by Ajayajayaj 2018-05-10T13:25:27Z

Nice game! The graphics are simple and colorful, they tell you all you need to do. You got the liquid to look right and it is a nice puzzle experience. Nice work!

Tombagotchi by TerraCottaFrog 2018-05-10T13:50:51Z

Great concept and great execution! The graphics give the game a real tamagotchi feel and the battle royale aspect is so imaginative. Great work!

Cramzon Mine by recursor 2018-04-24T20:47:37Z

Hi,

I ordered a camera from your website a while ago. Today my item arrived, and I could tell in one glance that the package was damaged. Not only that, but when I opened it I realized, to my surprise, that I was sent a whale and an old man's head instead.

0/10. Will never order from Cramzon again.

Dark Soil by Pietro Ferrantelli 2018-05-05T13:34:02Z

Very interesting combination of themes. The graphics, animations and generally the atmosphere of the game are great at pulling you in, and the gameplay is fun. Very polished game, great work!

Commodore Combat by Syrapt0r 2018-05-05T13:23:11Z

Interesting combination of themes! Took quite some time trying to understand how to use the commands, but there's fun in that. Nice work!

Meta Defense by ragnta 2018-04-24T20:35:23Z

This is a game you shouldn't judge by the art. The amount of options make this very strategic for a jam game and I love that. If I could suggest something it would be to maybe reorder the options to make it clearer what stat each improves. Adding a way to reduce clicking during tense moments, for example being able to fully feed with 1 click, would be great!

Meta Defense by ragnta 2018-04-24T21:50:59Z

@ragnta Oh, sorry if that sounded wrong, I did not mean I didn't like it, but from the screenshot you cannot tell how strategic the game is. I actually love the little animations of the enemies and the portraits the enemies and the towers have in the menu. The only thing I found weird is the map, with the colors and shapes I did not understand it was a map in the beginning.

Super Fun Action Chess by seano 2018-05-05T14:23:47Z

Great idea and nice implementation of the theme! The graphics and the music go well together and make for a nice experience. In the 3rd battle, the game bugged out on me and the pieces would start to move and then go back to their initial position so I could not continue. Even so, this action chess was super fun!

Goodnight Meowmie by DDRKirbyISQ 2018-05-14T16:49:18Z

This game is the reason I'm never getting a cat.

Great visuals, great music, great gameplay. If you forced me to find something wrong, it would probably be that the virtual pet aspect of the game feels more like an optional extra. The horror part more than makes up for it, though. The atmosphere is great, the 'things' out there are creepy and the game feels scary without overuse of jumpscares, sounds, and other horror game cliches. I really liked the clever placement (or non-placement) of enemies. Overall felt like a complete game, an impressive feat for 72 hours.

A Tavern Life by Paula 2018-05-05T12:55:00Z

Fun game with great atmosphere! The sprites and music make the tavern feel alive, and the menus are fluid and make for a polished experience. Great work!

Learn Math With Flappy Bee by nusan 2018-05-14T14:05:02Z

Awesome game! It's very rare to play a game that's actually educational while being really fun to play around with. The only thing I'd suggest would be maybe an introduction/example of each element for people who are not already familiar with how they work and affect functions. Overall great work!

Flowers in the frame by oab 2018-05-14T14:19:37Z

Nice game! The graphics are well drawn and the sound effects go well with them. I personally think the sharper controls are fine since they make the game a bit more challenging and require you to pay attention to where you're going. Overall nice work!

Dash and Slash by Bookworm31 2018-05-10T11:30:44Z

Nice concept. The graphics and sound effects are simple and make it easy to understand what the game is and how to play. The only thing I find a bit frustrating is losing to rng. Maybe increase the hand size by 1 card to give some more options? Nice work!

Roulette Knight by Finlal 2018-05-05T13:29:32Z

Fun game, very interesting combination of themes! Great work!

Feed the Beat by Benstar 2018-05-05T13:59:15Z

Very fun game! Great implementation of themes. The art and music go well together and combined with the simple controls make for a very fluid and polished experience. Great work!

Solitary by FuriousWitch 2018-05-14T17:09:29Z

Nice game! For the first time using GameMaker this is great! It took me a while to realize I had to be standing in the circles to interact with objects in the base. I liked the fact that you have limited space in your bag so you have to be careful what you pick up. If I could add something it would probably be a visual indication when you can press enter to go exploring. Overall nice work!

Infinite Typer by theamazingb 2018-04-24T21:36:57Z

This game is a great combination of genres. I love the difficulty. It is really challenging to type while trying to watch out for future obstacles. The graphics are playful and the music and sound effects fit that as well. Great work!

LD #41 Entry - RED V S BLUE by ViridianGames 2018-05-10T11:47:42Z

So now I know where the armies that are destroying my farm come from. I, too, would like to see the battle after building all those units, but the twist made up for it. It was unexpected and made me smile. Nice work!

Win My Heart: Battle Royale + Dating Sim by misterstripey 2018-05-14T15:26:28Z

Great game! The art is colourful and funny, all the characters look great (except Friendo who is my greatest fear), the music and sound effects are really nice and complete the experience, and the game itself is full of funny jokes. Overall great work!

Plane Fishing by Belga54 2018-05-10T13:32:30Z

Nice game! Fun and colourful graphics and interesting concept. I felt like the bombs spawned a bit too fast but the difficulty makes it challenging. Overall nice work!

Iocus Navis by Ranzor 2018-05-10T12:20:35Z

Nice concept. The game plays well, the card-based movement makes decisions matter and the graphics are nice and get what you need to do across. Overall nice work!

My little secret (by Rapter and NomadFox) by Rapter 2018-04-24T22:00:17Z

Nice twist on the dating sim there. I like games that are a bit darker. Good work!

Honest Dan's Trout by Honest Dan 2018-05-05T14:08:07Z

Great combination of genres, makes it very challenging, I enjoyed it a lot. The retro graphics and sounds go well together. Overall a very polished and fun experience. Great work!

City&Racing by nizlow 2018-05-05T13:14:06Z

Nice combination of genres. The sounds effects are pretty fun and the map is large with quite a few challenges. The hard races are really hard, especially in the beginning. Nice work!

Love Is A Battlefield by F1Krazy 2018-04-24T21:16:30Z

Oh, sure, Karen. I'll just totally forget about being shot with giant lasers...

Nice game. I love the fact that it's a complete start-to-finish game. The graphics and sounds mix well together, and the bullet hell part is well designed as well. Great work!

BattleFarm: Bullet Season by Crimson 2018-04-24T21:23:38Z

@theamazingb Thanks for the feedback! The sad part is that I had already recorded the sounds I wanted, but did not have enough time to put them in. I will update it to a version with sound when LD is over.

BattleFarm: Bullet Season by Crimson 2018-05-14T15:43:30Z

Thanks to everyone for the feedback! Some of you asked about sound, the truth is I had already recorded the sound effects I wanted in the weekend of LD41, but had no time to put them in the game. After voting is over, I'll make sure to update with a post-jam version with sound, some small balance changes for the plants and soldiers, and improved hitboxes. Thanks again for your comments!

Proelium. by Markram 2018-05-14T16:04:45Z

Very artistic game. The graphics are beautiful and the character is full of character, with nice animations. The music fits the game as well. The music tracks are great but have a long beginning. In my first playthrough I didn't get to listen to the whole tracks since getting to the tower and the battle itself don't take much time. In my second playthrough I took my time and was pleasantly surprised that the music was not just a short loop. The story of the game was nicely told through gameplay, and both the hero and "villain" are interesting. Overall great work!

Math Blast! by Joe Zabriskie 2018-05-10T12:06:58Z

Nice concept. The graphics are simple and make it easy to understand what to do, and the sounds effects are great. :P The math could be a bit harder and that wait at the beginning of a level was a bit annoying. Overall, nice work!

Soccer Slasher by Supernapie 2018-05-10T14:09:15Z

Nice concept! The graphics are simple and colourful, the camera shake on kills gives the game character and the gameplay is intuitive and well executed. Overall nice work, especially for such a short time!

Barry Has a Secret (horror, meal hiding simulation) by jamfella 2018-05-05T13:49:49Z

Great game! One of the best meal hiding simulations around! The only thing I don't understand is why the police wants to take away Barry's meals. Poor Barry.
