LD46 — Keep it alive

Tiger Zoo by headchant 2020-04-20T15:15:14Z

Ah, another person of culture I see. https://cryptomnesic-softworks.itch.io/tiger-tycoon Your card game take is more interesting. Programmer art! I was never able to get the right cards at the right time, but I have bad luck. Maybe it could be less random?

Forests of Xahil by unpronounceable 2020-04-20T12:45:53Z

Good audio effort for 48h. Decent combat balance as well. Variety of enemies also good. Would like less resistance when playing my turn. Too many menu options and button presses to choose attacks.

Keep It Alive by danman9914 2020-04-21T18:06:49Z

What on earth did I just save? Top marks for mood in this LD. Great art. Only quibble is I never felt short of any resource.

Tumble Baby by 01010111 2020-04-20T15:22:13Z

Impressive polish as usual. I found the title screen harder than many of the levels! Nerf title screen.

Tumble Baby by 01010111 2020-04-20T19:45:13Z

Love that this is somehow at the very top of the DANGER filter on front page right now

Dunkman by congusbongus 2020-04-27T11:39:46Z

I loved it. Pro tip, if you hold down or down-left you'll be safe 80-90% of the way to the basket! A perfect compo entry. Not sure how it would scale up into a full game though!

ADRENA-LINE by managore 2020-04-20T22:43:46Z

This took me right back to this exact moment:

18-SB_17_13.png

Last Hope by Iluvatar 2020-04-20T22:26:15Z

Top marks for art for sure. Loved the LucasArts vibes. Sound also great for 48h. Short on gameplay, but to be expected with the effort that went into the visuals. If it were longer I'd buy it for sure.

Save The Pink Skins! by gajop 2020-04-20T14:21:38Z

This has the control feel of Crystal Quest from back in the day. Good balance between protection/destruction. Programmer art!

Space Ship E.V.E by silkworm_sweatshop 2020-04-27T12:23:57Z

Great story! I had trouble with the camera scrolling as well. Would be better with cursor keys maybe? More of this! With a full campaign, I'd buy it.

A Cold Walk Home by Stefanie Leitch 2020-04-20T14:16:07Z

Nice mashup of idle and adventure genres. Great audio for 48h. Respawning with progress intact is greatly appreciated. Overall solid except for the now infamous boar boss. One question, in the first phase I was able to ignore the fire completely after filling the bar 1 time. Probably intentional. Made the first phase feel better.

Tiny Fragments by Daniel Moreno 2020-04-20T22:12:55Z

Thank god it pauses when you are dragging or it would be so stressful.

Chrashsite by axelrinaldo 2020-04-20T12:36:48Z

From one developer to another: I love the art. It feels like there needs to be a little more visual feedback when performing an action, I wasn't sure if I was chopping things at first, maybe have the trees shake a bit.

Control Room by jsec 2020-04-20T12:50:36Z

Love the aesthetic. Confused as to how to keep the energy level rising? Button turned red and clicking other things didn't seem to help. Probably me. Good submission.

Chicken game by Jole 2020-04-20T20:33:08Z

This would make a great pico8 tutorial cart!

OtherworldlyFlavors by erebus 2020-04-27T12:32:15Z

Well done compo entry all around. I play with sound off most of the time so that didn't bother me. Obviously you can't build out too many narrative branches in 48h, so I won't complain there either. You could easily polish this a bit and throw it up next to Reign and that crowd would flock to this. Remember us little people when you buy that lambo.

Heart String by MZA 2020-04-20T18:42:01Z

Twist on a puzzle platformer, with meatboy difficulty. Great visuals for 48h. Levels are very tight, I had a lot of trouble. I'm also really bad at meatboy type games. Solid entry.

Colony by Swen 2020-04-20T16:29:35Z

I've actually wanted to make something like this. This is near the top of the dozen or so I've rated so far. A few quibbles. Is there a win condition? Or only a loss condition? Improving the soldier ai so that it patrols near the queen possibly. Sound of course. Lay eggs action could be automatic.

Colony by Swen 2020-04-20T16:54:56Z

I love the idea of having Elite Ants in your ant army after they murder enough reds.

Protect the Castle by Tomas.2D 2020-04-20T16:47:02Z

Idle clicker with medieval theme. Art style works well. Felt bad for the enemy, felt too easy murdering all those young men. I want more! More enemy types, more threat. Keep this up.

VirusTD by RaccoonLudos 2020-04-20T16:41:00Z

Tower defense with a topical theme. Couldn't tell what the range on the towers was, so placed them too far from the bloodstream! I got it after that. I want more! Upgrades, virus types, bloodstream variations. Keep it up.

Elvis In The woods by Hakro 2020-05-01T11:42:56Z

Raycasting and particles were nice looking, one thing I noticed: north facing shadows render on top of the player model.

Rolly and the Flower by Rolly 2020-04-20T15:00:48Z

Good use of level design to introduce mechanics. Hilarious flower audio. Quite decent music for 48h. Adding some texture to the level surfaces would really make it pop.

Bunny Plague by Malai 2020-04-28T18:28:40Z

Much Respect for using your own engine.

Save Dave by Kirbloid 2020-04-20T16:51:48Z

This is so. Amazing. Full marks for humor and art. I am speechless. A bit hard to see the aliens attacking but that's probably the point. More of this. Great entry.

Lost Beneath by Honey Pony 2020-04-28T18:25:06Z

Appreciate the craftsmanship! Too hard for me though. Terrible at the energy whip. Always was since super metroid.

The Light Child by hulien22 2020-04-20T18:15:50Z

Feeding the light source is satisfying. Love programmer art! Never saw any enemies for some reason while running around. Probably me. Wanted to attach the light to my head somehow so I didn't have to constantly drop and pickup the axe.

Box Of Limes by RedDashGames 2020-04-21T17:40:37Z

This is a good mashup entry, especially the audio. Couldn't get past level 3, the lemming moved way too fast. Probably my machine. Probably also my old hands.

Planto by Btmodz 2020-05-03T11:45:13Z

Got a chuckle out of me. Consistent aesthetic, goofy concept. Found an issue where when you throw your plant, it can clip through the ground and fall into infinity! Infinity plant.

Frost & Fire by Cryptomnesic 2020-04-20T14:01:52Z

@staircase27a good catch. Pushed a fix so that the game doesn't keep running after it ends!

Frost & Fire by Cryptomnesic 2020-04-27T11:59:34Z

@kirbloid Exactly yes, there needs to be incentives to alter your path, I'm working on a version that is more fleshed out for after voting ends!

campfire by jonah 2020-04-20T01:50:27Z

On a 13'' macbook the top of the game is cut off. Nice little mechanic. Completing music for a compo is something I aspire to. If you plan to expand, maybe different movement values for terrain / water, possibility of drowning etc.

Needs achievements and expensive cosmetic DLC, otherwise good commuter game.

Skinner Dungeon by UnluckyNinja 2020-10-05T13:16:51Z

Bruv you need to set it as 'Public' not draft I did the same earlier

It goes on and on and on Dungeon by FancyReckless 2020-10-07T19:19:32Z

Blek ported to phones makes all kinds of sense, just add some cosmetic dlc and buy a lambo. I use that kenny tileset for like all my prototyping I love it.

Omega Virus by Cryptomnesic 2020-10-05T13:19:43Z

Should have mentioned, for the LD version you can enter a fake email. It doesn't do anything other than log you in.

Omega Virus by Cryptomnesic 2020-10-07T11:52:46Z

@endurion That's usually because the password is too short, I forgot to put in a clear error for that particular case

Omega Virus by Cryptomnesic 2020-10-07T19:04:41Z

@endurion I think you're right about the account for right now...I've just pushed a patch so that the account is auto-generated for the LD version.

Omega Virus by Cryptomnesic 2020-10-07T19:34:07Z

@foursay I've automated account generation so you shouldn't need one now, if you want to try again.

I liked the 3d view actually and would like to see features from the random events appear in that viewport. I'm not 100% clear on what the red ball represents though...

Moot by Peco 2021-04-27T17:09:05Z

5 stars for audio and graphics. I never give 5 stars. Just so good for the time given. However, areas to improve are gameplay which was quite shallow and boring, bringing the composite score down to 4 stars.

Age of Dwarves by DangerBlack 2021-04-27T01:38:51Z

Unable to assign an action to a dwarf. The UI goes into a disabled state after choosing an action and doesn't allow you to select a target.

Crystal Master by Jared York 2021-04-27T02:07:57Z
