LD46 — Keep it alive (31)

The Last Antibody by Reino Angelo 2020-05-02T12:56:34Z ♥ 1

Amazing game! The controls feel fluid, the soundeffects are crisp and also fit the background music. I always had the right mouse button pressed down, maybe that's not needed and the player always moves where the mouse is? That would free up the right mouse button for some special attack, or extra speed or something like that.

Square Shield by Dave Follett 2020-05-01T12:13:53Z ♥ 1

I like the idea, but just keeping the shield rotating constantly will prevent any hits.

Supermarket Showdown by Sigton 2020-05-01T12:10:03Z ♥ 1

This is a very fun game, and astonishingly complete and polished! I found a tiny bug: the healthbars are shown behind barriers if there is a barrier on the tile directly above a customer.

Cardkin by Akusan 2020-04-26T10:08:31Z ♥ 1

Cute game, but I did not really understood what the different cards do. Just clicking randomly on the cards most often lead to a quick win.

Fireflies by Alexascher 2020-04-26T10:05:16Z ♥ 1

Gorgeous art and music, and it all fits the mood quite well. This is relaxing and fun to play for a while.

LD Jam 46 Keep It Alive by brandann 2020-04-26T09:59:14Z ♥ 0

Very challenging, but fun to play. I like the music and sound effects! One improvement I could think of would be to have a way of givin the poor knight commands, like "wait here" or "come to me" (with cooldown, only active for a few seconds).

Nightmare Knights by Low Mana 2020-04-26T09:05:11Z ♥ 1

Cute idea! The animations are nicely done (the deamon with the hat! 😁) Gameplay wise there was not a lot to do, and I had bad luck several times with all my teddy bears turning their back to the daemon wave just as it spawned, which did not feel so good.

Forest Guardian by JakobTheQuizGuy 2020-04-26T08:58:22Z ♥ 1

Excellent graphics and animations, and it feels good to play!

Hardline by Widerhold 2020-04-26T08:51:17Z ♥ 0

This is a really cool idea! The controls and graphics just feel right, well done. My only criticism is that the obstacles feel a bit boring after some while.

Vampi by kuanip 2020-04-26T08:45:57Z ♥ 0

The vampire is nicely made, as are the background graphics. Sadly there's not really much to do, apart from jumping over the obstacles. What should the things do that you can place with the mouse?

Branch Out by Thermacon 2020-04-26T08:42:56Z ♥ 0

I found it pretty hard to balance adding roots and branches, I always ended either gaining no sun or no nutrients and my poor tree got eaten by the bugs. I really like the idea, but at least for me it was a bit too hard to play.

Lignum Vitae by IDidGame 2020-04-26T08:05:12Z ♥ 1

I liked the graphics and how the enemy balls get pushed away by the attacks. Sometimes it is hard to see where the enemies are, I think some sort of overlay/HUD could help?

Save Berta! by Bruno Marchi 2020-04-22T13:41:05Z ♥ 0

Fun to play. I like it that the hitbox of the plant eaters arent quite as large as the sprites, it feels a lot better than loosing because you jump slightly too early. The movement feels good as well.

Raid Healer Simulator by fydar 2020-04-22T11:44:27Z ♥ 1

Pretty accurate from my WoW experience 😁 It was a bit hard to guess what the different abilities are (and always switching tabs lead to the tank dying... but I guess he had bad gear!). Tooltips or something like that could help there.

campfire by jonah 2020-04-22T08:34:03Z ♥ 1

I like the game and how strategic you have to play (and can play!) to keep the fire alight. It gets hard really quick, but that's a part of what makes the game fun.

Green Dream by Trusty 2020-04-21T17:19:43Z ♥ 1

Nice idea, and I like the graphics. One thing that did not feel so good was that I bought a new flowerpot directly after sunset (maybe not the best idea), and because the plant spawned as well it died before the sun came again. Maybe there is a nice way to prevent that from happening?

GRDN by bjornkri 2020-04-21T13:54:43Z ♥ 1

The game is fun to play and the controls feel good, snappy and great sound/visual feedback! My only criticism is that the start is a bit slow, you can't get too far away of the plant to keep it wa but all the weeds are at the edge of the playfield.

Double AA by fakeyou 2020-04-20T16:33:30Z ♥ 0

I love the art style and animations. With firefox wasn't able to start the game, but Chrome worked fine.

Nature by rjerez192 2020-04-20T16:28:09Z ♥ 1

Nice game. I like the animations and the art style. The gameplay is a bit slow at the start, and it's not always clear what should be done, but its fun to play if you keep going. Maybe a small tutorial could help?

Feed Me Freddy by kevwpl 2020-04-20T16:09:11Z ♥ 1

Nice graphics and music! I did not really understand if there is a better strategy than just pushing through the crowd. Buying an item gives a really satisfying sound, but when you have the list completed the reaction is slightly lacking.

Keep it burning ! by Xentiie 2020-04-20T16:01:04Z ♥ 1

Fun game! I love the way the fire keeps being in view even if you go away.

Feed Me More! by Itskdog 2020-04-20T15:56:14Z ♥ 1

Really cool game! The monster is so cute, you really don't want it to be hungry 😁. One thing that could be improved is some feedback when picking up gems: sometimes I did not notice that I missed a gem.

Protect the Pup! by Maindric 2020-04-20T14:52:34Z ♥ 1

Nice modelling, and that in such a short time! I like the idea. I did not really understand what the towers do, and often it seems that standing still is the best strategy, maybe the aliens should actively follow the dog if they are too near? It was fun to play!

KingdomKeeper by BGameDev 2020-04-20T14:45:32Z ♥ 1

Very cool idea, and great art style. It was a bit difficult to figure out what to do at the beginning, but then it's a fun game.

ERROR 404 by Nate Wert 2020-04-20T14:36:50Z ♥ 1

Nice game! I'm impressed by all the models you made in such short time. I think overall the game would benefit from a little more visual feedback (e.g. I at first wasn't sure that I put viruses in the furrance correctly), but otherwise it feels quite good.

FICER by Blueberry_Mauro 2020-04-20T14:21:46Z ♥ 1

Very nice sound and art, and I like the idea! One thing to improve could be a bit more variation, I feel that at some point the best strategy is to keep pushing the icecube left and right in the same row. Maybe moving the water puddles after some time would help with that.

Bobbleheads want to dance by jk5000 2020-04-20T14:16:21Z ♥ 3

So many dancing bobble heads. I reached 140 seconds!

Mine of Shadows by JesmoDev 2020-04-20T10:37:14Z ♥ 0

Great game, I absolutely love the art style! Two things for improvement: aiming feels a bit clunky (but maybe my laptop is just a bit slow responding), and sometimes I shoot at the coal/gold/iron deposit instead of collecting it (maybe slightly too far away?).

Sheep it alive! by SheetCode 2020-04-19T16:46:02Z ♥ 1

Harder than it appears at first. "Easy to understand, hard to master" is absolutely true. I like the sound and the animations!

Peculiar Farming by Arcus 2020-04-19T16:41:10Z ♥ 2

I like the eggplants! As others, I did not find a way to buy more seeds.

Meteorite Pig by appix 2020-04-19T16:25:59Z ♥ 2

This is really fun! I just wanted to take a look, but couldn't stop playing (highscore is now 330!).

One idea for improvement: it could get faster with time (rock spawn rate, movement speed, maybe both?).
