LD41 — Combine 2 Incompatible Genres

Intel Driver by Pete 2018-05-13T08:11:47Z

I had fun playing this game, at did feel like I was controlling a puck on slippery ice rather than a car but that just added to the challenge. The controls might still be worth tweaking a little bit. Would like to see a post LD version.

Nice concept and very well polished visuals. A little bit on the short side and audio would have been nice but an enjoyable experience nonetheless.

Nicely done, especially the audio. The foreground moves with the player when jumping which looks a bit weird. Still a nice game though.

Really cool game, I enjoyed it very much! I am amazed at the level of polish you managed within such a short timeframe. I really enjoyed the music. I played until I got stuck on the "walk forward with your face down" level. There is a lot of potential here and the mechanic is cool and innovative. One note about the controls: on some levels I would have preferred a slightly slower walking speed (or some way to slow down by holding a key) I fell of the stage a few times by mistake. But a really awesome game nonetheless!

@morphine Yeah, I gathered that much from reading the other comments. I'll give it another shot later :)

@morphine I tried again and managed to finnish the game, the rest of the game was as enjoyable as the first half. Well done!

Hilarious concept. A game which justifies the humor voting category.

Nice game, you certainly nailed the theme!

You are topping out the mood ratings, that's for sure.

Star Shadow (Incomplete) by Veilastrum 2018-04-24T20:02:16Z

Nice game, I enjoyed it. No need to be so negative about your creation :)

Cold Stars. Empty Voxels. by Alexander Danilovsky 2018-04-23T18:57:56Z

I like the concept! The movement could be better though.

Deep space - cards battle by Serious07 2018-04-23T18:48:56Z

Really awesome game! My only gripe is the asteroids flying at top speed from the bottom of the screen. I think it's too hard to see them coming. But it's a good game nonetheless.

Town Warfare (RTS Shooting!) by magicera 2018-05-13T07:49:30Z

Nice game. I played it like an FPS though since the only thing you can do in RTS mode is get killed.

Apocalypse Mini Golf by driedwatermelon 2018-04-24T11:02:41Z

@morphine Thank you for your honest and constructive criticism. My original concept for the game was that the player would be shooting the golf ball with a selection of different weapons and have control over the balls behaviour that way. Unfortunately I had some trouble configuring the physics and the time constraints caught up with me. So I ended up with just two different speeds (you can putt the ball by right clicking in case you missed that). The slow walking speed was a mistake, at first it was to make it easier to line up the shots, but after I added the precision walking mechanic it wasn't really necessary anymore. It just stuck around. Thank you for playing my game!

Apocalypse Mini Golf by driedwatermelon 2018-04-24T11:06:13Z

@good-enough Thank you for playing! At first I was planning on making the game a bit more "apocalyptic" but this is what I ended up with when the time was up.

Apocalypse Mini Golf by driedwatermelon 2018-04-24T17:48:37Z

@morphine Thanks, I'll think about it :)
