LD24 — Evolution

Natural Selection - You vs the World by DigiTec 2012-08-28T21:15:00

We apologize for the site being offline. It will either be back online once we can upgrade the Azure instance (currently we cannot due to no additional VMs being available) or at 5:30 PST when our daily quota resets. Again, very sorry for the lack of availability.

Note, there are commented out sounds. We did human voice sounds, both pew and crash, but they get really annoying so we pulled them out last minute. Once voting is over we'll republish with some tweaks and maybe some sound, but in the spirit of LD we don't want to tweak any gameplay. Now, if you get a crash, let us know and we'll take care of that.

Natural Selection - You vs the World by DigiTec 2012-09-10T20:43:00

The enemies are previous players of the game so the reason they are "hard" is because the players are "good".

Natural Selection - You vs the World by DigiTec 2012-09-15T20:46:00

Yes, I apologize. There was an issue with the game and since it classified as a crash/hang I was able to submit a non gameplay affecting patch for it.

We were stressing the limits of the browser's abitlity to be able to parse a large JSON string. We've scaled back the number of requested ghosts to compensate for this issue.

This is using WebGL which is not very widely supported. You won't be able to run it on any version of IE and most versions of Safari and FireFox. Only Chrome has decent out of box support. So if you want to rate this entry try Chrome.

Enhanced Man by Per 2012-08-28T18:13:00

Ouch, actually, Chrome and FireFox just display a "Level 1 - The Forest" and stop.

Really, really borderline unacceptable given the language...

Wow, this is an amazing amount of awesome in a short time.

LD26 — Minimalism

The Kazimir Shift by DigiTec 2013-04-30T19:37:00

Thanks Daan. We are considering if we should add a 2x button for the earlier stages. We were overly concerned that our ability to play the early levels was due to our own expertise, but we've gotten quite a bit of feedback that the game is initially too slow.

LD27 — 10 Seconds

Hail Of Bombs by tinyworlds 2013-08-27T01:49:00

The link is asking for login credentials, unsure if I'm the only one seeing that or not.

We are looking into Pottery Barn (the second game). It behaves differently on different devices and we have found some instances where the inputs make the game impossible to beat. I'm glad you got past it though because there are some awesome things further along ;-)

T1me Twist0r by DigiTec 2013-08-27T18:25:00

@Rick - At the top of each mini-game there is a title and a sub-title, the help in the sub-title can often tell you what to do. Or is there a specific game you are having trouble with? We know about the issues with Pottery Barn and we consider them making the game "unbeatable" so we'll release an update to correct this issue.

@Diptoman - You are winning a mini-game, and then once the 10s timer expires we take you to the next board. The concept is continuity of time and the 10s theme so we don't transition you until the full 10 seconds has played out because of the time sync to the clock hand animation in the back.

Apologies, but adherence to the them and deep integration of the theme is one of the things we strived for here. We do realize it is somewhat confusing.

Now, if you are hitting the Winner screen and it never starts the next mini-game even after 10s, that would be a problem we need to investigate.

T1me Twist0r by DigiTec 2013-08-27T21:22:00

@Jupi - Nice compilation. The voiceover is extremely entertaining. Thanks for taking a look at our game.

T1me Twist0r by DigiTec 2013-09-08T20:28:00

@bitowl - Audio was a silly mistake. We could have transcoded the audio into multiple formats and used source tags, but since it worked in Chrome and IE we kinda stopped and didn't realize FireFox didn't work.

As for the scrolling text, I tried in a few versions of Chrome, but couldn't see any major issues. I think depending on viewport size and user scaling though there can be issues so I'm likely just not providing the right environment to hit the bug.

We'll definitely make sure these make it into our list of things to watch out for in future games.

ROBO-TIC by Omar_q8 2013-08-27T01:57:00

This is definitely one of the most complete end to end games and the theme is well represented. The fact that your ten seconds resets with each robot and you are simultaneously controlling all of the robots at all times is pretty awesome.
