LD40 — The more you have, the worse it is

Holiday Parking Panic! by FormalCloud 2017-12-06T23:27:19Z

Really like the idea and the driving mechanics. The car is a little difficult to handle but I suppose that's the point of the game :)

If there is one thing I would do is figure out a way to fit the theme more, and maybe add some more depth to the game.

Chick Magnet by one-seed-fruit 2017-12-08T18:09:38Z

Interesting concept, but the elements don't really seem to work together. Why a magnet to attract eggs? Why would a chicken be taking eggs into a magic lamp? If you maybe had a fox or something it would work better. The input was also a bit laggy so grabbing the eggs became a bit frustrating.

The game is packaged well though and works great on a Mac which I cannot say for many other games :)

Malabar by roycocup 2017-12-05T23:42:06Z

Pretty fun! A simple concept but quite addictive. Nice one.

One issue I ran into: I played it at 800x600 resolution on a Mac and the ball moved out to the right of the screen.

Happy Bot Mess by meursault 2017-12-05T16:44:49Z

Looks like a nice game but unfortunately I don't have a Windows machine to play it on :(

Cute Cats Daily by impbox 2017-12-05T18:59:38Z

Brilliant concept. Brilliant game. First game I rated that I got lost in, spent at least 30 minutes feeding these virtual cats and I don't regret it.

Save the Plants by joski 2017-12-12T17:04:13Z

Fun game. The controls are a bit difficult without a controller though. Also I'm a bit confused about the "reel" mechanics, is it just to add difficulty? What's the inspiration for that?

Overall I have enjoyed playing this game though. Nice job :)

Slightly annoying traffic by JOrbits 2017-12-07T14:52:36Z

Awesome game. The crashes are really satisfying, would love to see this developed further with more car types and ways to slow down cars or maybe a large scale simulator where you end up being able to install traffic lights at some points.

SUPER COP HERO by Finlal 2017-12-05T18:18:56Z

This is a really well put together game. The art is beautiful and the game has a perfect balance of challenge vs. satisfaction. I love the fact that you die in a single shot, it makes the gameplay so much clearer.

The Will of the Wisps by adsilcott 2017-12-05T18:37:20Z

Incredibly beautiful game. Thank you for sharing it @kantora! The audio and visuals are wonderful, and the concept of the elements in the level becoming more visible as you collect the little lights is brilliant.

One thing I might change to improve this is to make it more obvious (somehow) that you can enter the blacked out areas in the future.

Caravan by iovorobiev 2017-12-05T16:43:01Z

Really cool game. I really love the music and the general mood. The encounters gave me a laugh more than once :) If there is one thing I would maybe change is to make the encounters a bit less frequent, but nice job overall!

Make Ludum Dare Great Again by ultimategrinder 2017-12-05T17:20:45Z

Fun. Some more levels would have been awesome as well as a little tutorial at the beginning :)

Coastal Postal by dom 2017-12-05T20:37:16Z

@cremagames thanks! Yeah, I wanted to give it a little bit of a retro feel by making it keyboard-only. Moving the map via the mouse probably would have been much better.

Coastal Postal by dom 2017-12-05T23:43:47Z

@andrewjadams I actually had the same idea but didn't get a chance to try it. I wonder if this could count as a bug fix, probably not :)

Coastal Postal by dom 2017-12-06T22:52:20Z

@roycocup what's your screen resolution? :)

Coastal Postal by dom 2017-12-07T20:52:51Z

@stmatn interesting. What OS is this on? Thank you for the kind words. We tried to get you to explore by making the paths a little less clear, hopefully it wasn't too confusing (although I also wonder where you were travelling from) :)

Cowquest by papacheech 2017-12-05T17:05:25Z

macOS version doesn't work. I can't click any of the buttons :\

Works on the web though and is very cool! I like the idea and the game itself is challenging in a good way. Btw I got my hands on a rock and couldn't throw it (bug?) I tried pressing space to do it.

Cowquest by papacheech 2017-12-05T17:15:13Z

hey @papacheech: it seems that this is a Unity issue. I just experienced it in another game. Leaving the full screen fixed it for that game.

Desert Express by TerraPass 2017-12-05T17:08:11Z

That looks really cool! Sadly the one platform that's not available is the one I am on (macOS) :(

Quantum's Rick by cortexdeveloper 2017-12-05T18:27:48Z

Very cool adaptation of that Rick and Morty episode. One complaint that I have is that it doesn't run as smoothly as it could in the browser, might benefit from something other than Unity :)

404: Space Not Found by Tom Schneider 2017-12-05T20:52:59Z

The mood is really nice for this game. It satisfies my sci-fi hunger. One thing I would suggest that could be improved is the transparency on the dialogue boxes, it's a bit too transparent (or maybe the text colour isn't right?) :)

The game concept is really cool as well and the title fits it well!

Noisy Thief by CapitanLiteral 2017-12-08T20:44:57Z

Really fun and tense (in a good way) game. Would have loved to see more levels, nice! :)

Bug though: picking a resolution with a width smaller than ~800px means you cannot see the room the thief gets into.

Don't be Greedy! by Compufreak 2017-12-05T20:59:32Z

Not bad for a first game. The title screen could have used some sprucing up. Also, I died and restarted only to find my player missing :)

Could use some more polishing. But hey, it's your first Ludum Dare. Nice!

Get to the CHOPPA! by Girts Kesteris 2017-12-05T17:13:53Z

Those sound effects. Beautiful!

Mortal Komba by kokirisandfriends 2017-12-05T16:48:26Z

The graphics are really well made! And I really love the concept, it fits the theme very well.
