Too difficult for me, but nice game overall.

Nice entry :)
Interesting story
6-7 hours? really?
Poor mac :D
awesome!
Nice one!
Seems like a very detailed game with a good idea behind it but a little hard to understand what's happening and how to optimize the score. I played the original version, since post jam really does not interest me in the slightest. My final opinion is that the game certainly has where to improve, but I really love the idea and I think it is well made. Good job!
Well, in my opinion ludum dare is all about following the theme or certain limitations to make a game that's still relatively fun. Yes, the game, even though simple, is quite fun but there is really not too much to it in my opinion. A few abilities, basic enemy follow script with a little bit of delay that you can find in almost every Unity game tutorial and lasers. Honestly, it's not a bad game, really isn't, but the fact that the theme of the LD isn't implemented and the all to basic design is really a big minus. Keep on trying and improving! And do try to follow the theme next time :)
The game is actually pretty fun :D! Even though the graphics aren't the greatest and it's not too much of a challenge, I still found it quite fun! The effect of music getting faster each time is quite nice but the music gets tiresome pretty fast, so not the best track choice in my opinion. Too plain and simple for me. But I guess it meets the games theme, plain, simple and with two buttons! Good job!
Aww man, my fish starved > _ <! Actually a very fun game with a very interesting idea behind it. I guess I found the location of fish not so obvious as my eyes aren't good enough to see where the rippling water was > _ <. Also a little lack of music, but the sound effects and general feel is on spot. Overall, a very great job I must say. I'll be giving 4-5-ish :)!
I commend you for trying to stick with the 2 button controls, but they are just too weird for me, which takes a lot out of the game. I think the game and idea isn't half bad, but graphics, music and overall everything still needs quite a bit of improvement. Not a bad job I must say but definitely needs improvements. Keep on jamming!
Nice graphics!
Simply love this game. I think it's an awesome and very original idea in my opinion! A little hard to figure out, but possible! Great job!
Very cool idea, couldn't get too big of a score though (2550). Overall, I think it fits the theme very good, though It's pretty much snake with a twist. The audio is okayish and the graphics isn't much to look at but it serves the purpose well! Good job :)
Sorry, but the game simply crashes. Unplayable
Please upload WebGL version of your game. Not everybody can use Unity plugin :c
Reminds me of that old shooting game I'd play on my old old console but with a twist! Definitely a very good idea, and I commend you for sticking with the 2 button controls, though It seems as though the player really isn't punished at all for spamming the buttons constantly, so the game really isn't all that challenging. A bullet count just like for the enemies would be far more challenging in my opinion and there's definitely things that could be improved in this game, but for a 72 hour job, this is damn well made! Good job!
Could you please make Linux version? I don't think it would be that hard :P
The Linux version doesn't run for some reason. If I run it from terminal I get this error:
./Escape of the alien invader.x86: error while loading shared libraries: libXcursor.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Maybe you could look into that?
The control system is fun but just about as you seem to get how it works you god damn switch it :D! Damn it :D.... Game is super difficult and there's not much too it, but the I love the idea! Good job :)
The game is not bad I guess, sadly I don't have a second player with me. I guess it would be difficult to navigate in the changing maze with the lights off but just grabbing one little box that sometimes spawns right before your eyes seems a little too easy and at times unfair. Idea is not bad, definitely but another thing I dislike is that it's obviously not 2 button control and I can't view this from the "growing" perspective no matter how much I try. The only things I saw that resembles growing is the word "grows" and the player sprite getting bigger all of the sudden. Overall, a pretty good game, but I'd recommend to follow the theme more, since ludum dare is all about making a game in the given theme with limited time.
Graphics are good and the game idea is fine but the game was a little hard to understand, there were a few bugs as well. Overall I'd it's pretty good though.
I'd say*
Can not run.
Well, the theme of "growing" is there and the gameplay is okayish, but it just seems way too clunky and quickly made for my tastes. Also, is there a reason why the skeletons shoot pickaxes :D?
The graphics made me cringe a bit :D. I guess a programmer is just not built to make graphics :D... The idea is okay-ish but there's really not much to this game. Also the music hurts my ears D: . Still, good job on sticking with both of the themes and still making a game that is relatively fun to play! Good job and keep on jamming!
The game is really really nothing interesting. A blue ball in a white/grey environment. No music, no sounds, no nothing. The game mechanics are weird, not to talk about the horribly made camera control. There is literally an option for unity that the camera wouldn't pass walls. Even though you state you tried to fit both themes, there's not even a doubt that you fail at the two button theme. The growth theme is there but it honestly just seems like a plugin so the game would pass the theme. Also, it really is unnecessary to make me collect all those balls just so I could pass a level. Also, 101%? Really? Overall, a very lackluster game with broken game mechanics, very bad game design and a bad idea behind it. Sorry, if I sound too harsh but it is the truth. The sooner you realize your faults, the better. Keep on making games, improving, reading articles about game design, etc and you'll get there.
Controls are simply horrible. Sadly, I do not have 3 hands so I can not use arrow keys, ctrl, shift and move my mouse around at the same time. Not to mention I'm really not a big fan of arrow keys but I can't even use the classic WASD... Graphics are nothing good either, no sound and I really can't tell what's happening in the game. Good try for your first time I guess but there's a lot where you can and have to improve. Also, please do try to stick with the theme for LD, as this is a contest to make a game in limited time with certain limitations. I'd suggest you keep on learning, read some game design articles, improve in programming and try again!
Woah, that's some dark game, though it makes me want to play it more and more! Good job, nice idea and good theme and mood!
Game is way too hard and I just can't get a hang of it. Needs a guide on what is good and what is bad. Good idea though!
