LD45 — Start with nothing

Inmate by dib 2019-10-09T18:32:25Z

Thanks for the feedback, everyone.

@sir-galloy-de-fierpate That's unfortunate. All I can suggest is to try on another computer.

@ben-ash Yeah, the music was done very last minute, but at least there is a mute option if it's annoying :)

Inmate by dib 2019-10-11T21:07:36Z

@bender-biber So you're the third one commenting about it. Hmm, it seems it's a bigger issue than I anticipated. I'll take a deeper look into this. Do you mind telling me your graphics card, and whether or not you have updated your drivers? Thanks. @huntrox @sir-galloy-de-fierpate

Inmate by dib 2019-10-11T21:21:29Z

@suvrik Thanks for your comment! There are a few issues indeed, but what is LD without bugs. :)

Inmate by dib 2019-10-29T16:21:38Z

@mashupgames Thanks for the feedback. The items just give you different stats really. And you're right, we should have focused more on developing a few good features, instead of many unfinished ones.

MØN : Master Of Nothing by saintheiser 2019-10-10T17:08:41Z

Man, you aimed high! That's for sure. Really nice *everything* really. Gameplay, graphics, audio, and story were all on point. Though, the control explanations should have been on the game screen itself, instead of further below on the web page, as it took me a good several deaths before realising what was actually happening!

Deserted by Pio 2019-10-10T16:16:24Z

Simple and entertaining game. I had trouble with the mouse not centering, but it was playable in fullscreen. Also, I think the rabbits turn into zombies after you kill them. I guess same reason as trees/stones, so you don't accidentally lose the game? :)

Deserted by Pio 2019-10-12T13:42:42Z

@pio Ah, indeed they do. I must have got confused by the sheer number and speed of them, haha.

Liberation by Light by Yaroslav Kravtsov 2019-10-09T16:20:03Z

This is one of my favourite entries I believe. The only drawback is poor looping of the background music. (Our entry has same problem though hehe) Other than that, it was really intuitive to get a feel for the game based on the tips you get in the beginning. At first I couldn't believe a few people had made this in 72 hours. However, I soon realised there was a bigger group than that, when taking a peek into the big propaganda room, if I may call it that, with all you Creators proudly on display. :) This game actually seems small at first, but then you constantly get surprised by how big it really is. Well, for an LD game at least! Good job everyone.

eelusion by Ace17 2019-10-09T17:39:26Z

I enjoyed playing through this. The ladder controls were slightly annoying, but I managed to get the hang of it. Of course I didn't get the key before getting to the end, so I had to backtrack! I like the change to dark colors that took place. Combat felt satisfying, although it was maybe too easy? The number of save points were probably also unnecessary, except for where the key had to be picked up. Overall good compo entry.

RUST vs THE HIVE by Sol Roo 2019-10-11T18:53:18Z

Nice atmosphere and graphics. The controls are a bit hard to use, so the aiming is difficult as a result. Otherwise nice game. I found the *literally* blue screen of death amusing. :)

Totally not Settlers by mr-tag 2019-10-11T15:48:30Z

Nicely done. I wish the picking was better though, as I accidentally skipped turns when I thought I clicked on a peasant to move it, but the game didn't register it. Good graphics, but could of course have used some music. :)

Get off the Hook by RAC-Games 2019-10-10T20:21:59Z

This might just be the most fun I've had beating an LD game. Honestly. The level design is amazing, and the audio is *perfect*. The mood is just as it should be. It's an advantage you are a big group, but I'm still impressed by the amount of work done in 72 hours. When I first started playing, the jumping felt odd, but I quickly grew to love that too. :)

Reboot Royale by Webox 2019-10-09T12:03:26Z

I like the graphics and audio. It lacked a bit in gameplay, and it got boring relatively quick, but it is overall a pretty good entry.

THE WALK by alphapolygon 2019-10-09T19:55:27Z

This is like Flappy Bird, except you don't need skill or training. Only patience.

Better than nothing by Fictions 2019-10-09T19:45:43Z

Very, very fun! Takes me back to when "upgrade game mechanics/graphics/ui" web games became popular. This was very well executed, although the lag is bothersome. Thankfully, it only lags when the round starts or ends. It really got difficult towards the end, with only a few enemies left to unlock.

Start with Muffin by Sibi 2019-10-10T22:06:27Z

Haha, you know you get a high humor rating when I am already laughing while reading the description. This game is cuteness overload. I swear, I lost count of how many times I started chuckling. The background music is great, and the "Muffin!" sound effect made my day. Thanks for making this!

Broke'n'Bad by Oune 2019-10-10T20:41:24Z

It's fun, but really stressful. I can't keep up with the police. I think I got kind of far, but it just got too hard.

Gargolite by Brusi 2019-10-10T21:54:40Z

I love this! So inventive! Great take on the theme. I would love to play a completed version of this game. Really good work.

When Nothing Came by velvetlobster 2019-10-11T11:00:56Z

I'm impressed by the execution of this. I think entertainment like this will become more and more popular. It doesn't necessarily feel *fun* to play, but it was interesting to play. If there are any negatives, it's the fact that the backwards music is rather disruptive. While I understand you probably want it like that, I personally think it should have been a bit easier on the ears.

EV/1 by OiledOwl 2019-10-10T21:48:09Z

Haha, that music. I had a bit of fun, but it did get boring rather fast, unfortunately. I think you should have tried to tie the game a bit more into the theme.

No Food Nomads by ScalphaMission 2019-10-09T21:49:18Z

Enjoyable to play. Relaxing game. I found hope, but I feel like a villain rather than a hero, because I'm the only person who survived to the end. :(

Bluebirds by hwaet 2019-10-10T18:43:37Z

Oddly relaxing game. <3. Wish there was a bit more mechanics though.

NOTHING : A sentient ascendency by Rooster And Frétillant 2019-10-11T19:34:11Z

Really nice game. It felt good playing. The music is excellent, and the idea is a creative take on the theme. While I do see the problems with collisions, I honestly found the controls rather pleasant. I'm not sure if I got into the second last door correctly or not - I was stuck on opening it for a while, but then I decided to just run into it to see if I could abuse the collision detection. I am not sure if it was because I had nitro, since I didn't use it at the time I got through, but I finally did it at least. Then the last door was relatively easy compared to that.

Buggert by wheelsx 2019-10-09T10:04:01Z

At first I was unsure whether or not I could reach anything, haha. It has a nice atmosphere, and the sounds and perspective work really well. Although I explored most of the map, I was unable to finish the game. It was too hard, unfortunately. You should explain it better in the description here. The main problem is how long it takes to get across the map. I understand why you thought this was a good idea, and it does add to the atmosphere, but when you have no directions, it becomes frustrating when you must go back and forth. As for graphics, they could have been textured at least, but it is LD after all. It's a good entry. I'll conclude by stating that the mouse was cute.

Flat Empire by Dani Riwez 2019-10-09T10:35:38Z

Really well polished for an LD game! Good job. It's yet-another-idle-clicker, but I love these games!

Nothing For Heaven by Xotsu 2019-10-10T15:31:16Z

I enjoyed this. Smooth gameplay and interesting idea. Nice graphics, although I noticed some minor rendering issues.

Stealing is Theft by Jeremy Daffix 2019-10-10T16:58:24Z

It's an alright game, but getting items from shelves is a pain. It requires multiple attempts to properly collide with the shelf to get items, and that is enough time to get caught.

Letterout by tohubohu 2019-10-11T09:38:35Z

Lol, fun game. I ended up in a weird situation here, as you can see. I enjoyed playing this. ouuooou.png

Grow Your Wolf by Ostrich 2019-10-10T23:28:04Z

Haha, that's certainly one way to take on the theme. Fun little game.

Pile of Corpses by TORT60091 2019-10-11T16:31:50Z

Very creative game, both from your end and the player's end. :)

LD41 — Combine 2 Incompatible Genres

Torn by IgorsGames 2018-04-24T16:11:33Z

I love the graphics and audio, but man is it challenging! Really nice submission :)

Bloody Battle by dib 2018-04-24T18:49:30Z

Thanks for the feedback everyone. @kyperbelt Oops, it tries to spawn objects in the wall chunk, but there are no empty tiles. Infinite loop! Hopefully few reach that point anyway. :)

Bloody Battle by dib 2018-04-27T10:10:41Z

Thanks so much @balance686 :)

Bloody Battle by dib 2018-04-28T18:36:01Z

@altron Thanks for playing! I agree with you. The start is too hard, and the end is too easy. :)

Bloody Battle by dib 2018-05-01T13:52:06Z

@secretpocketcat Thanks for the feedback. Never played Nuclear Throne though :) The genres are listed in the description: arcade + procedural generation

Let's Not Make This Weird by mjomble 2018-04-28T23:05:59Z

Great job on the humor and audio, I loved playing this. It got a bit annoying after a while though, as I was always lead onto the path of not having enough parts. The game really punishes you for misclicks. Oh, and there was a missing word in a message I believe. It should have said 'database', but didn't, and I had to look at the color of the chips.

Shootaball by Altron 2018-04-28T18:48:46Z

I had a ton of fun playing this! Too bad it's censored ;)

The first match was almost tied, but I ended up winning, and I completely dominated the second match. I also tried out another character afterwards. Great job on this game! The bad graphics just makes it better (sorry?)

Cocaine McBain - A Farm Rush Adventure by Goat Toaster Games 2018-04-30T22:43:10Z

Really well polished game! One of the most well-rounded experiences I've had so far while playing the entries. :) It did get a bit annoying to reset all the time though.

TPS: Top Person Shooter by JustMars 2018-04-28T22:23:10Z

I enjoyed the game! Shame it's so short, I'd love to play more of this. :)

Type Hero Adventures by Adriano Verissimo 2018-05-02T22:35:48Z

I love how you mixed the text input to make a fastpaced platformer, instead of making it somewhat "command after command". Really good job on the theme, as it works really well. I wish the levels would be a tiny bit more visible (zoomed out), but other than that it was enjoyable. :)

Can I F◼◼◼g Die? by Sempiternal 2018-04-24T16:38:30Z

This is my type of game. I love how intuitive it is to learn! Simplistic graphics, but it works quite well. The music is also quite soothing. :)

The Devil's Cabbage by EckyYakov 2018-04-26T16:52:45Z

Fun game, and funny too. I love the music. :)

Deck of the Dead by Balance686 2018-04-26T22:39:58Z

It took me a few tries until I understood what I was supposed to do. This is pretty interesting though! I like the concept, and I think you used the theme well.

Gender Circles by EkkoEkko 2018-04-26T17:10:08Z

Great job, man! I like the interpretation of the theme, and this is a well executed entry. :)

Tactical Hydra by MacDoom 2018-04-28T18:30:09Z

Interesting use of the theme, but I found this really difficult. Good job though, it feels finished.

text adventure platformer by Rs11s21n 2018-05-01T01:50:29Z

I like the aesthetics of this game, and the tutorial is pretty amusing. :) Too bad you did not get to finish the game, but o'well, that's LD!

Rappy Bird by dannywalker 2018-04-24T14:55:21Z

Well, +1 for creativity! Amusing little game, although it does gets boring after some minutes. :)
