LD54 — Limited Space (20)

rosie's escape by DinaraVlada 2023-10-12T14:14:22Z ♥ 2

I managed to find the cat's hat and brought it back. This is impressive for your first jam game!

There's a couple of things I need to mention: It would help if you add a list of controls in the description. I had to figure out to find what key did what. Here's the list of controls in case anyone else needs it :)

Controls

* SPACE to roll * SHIFT to attack with sword * Q and E to change item * CTRL to use item * With bombs: CTRL to use one, SPACE to throw it

Also it would be useful if the items in the shop had a visible price. I ended up getting enough coins to buy everything twice because I didn't know how much I needed hahah

I found it a cute game overall. Good job!

Feng Shui Struggles by Nozomu57 2023-10-03T19:15:20Z ♥ 1

I've got flashbacks from when I had to move my wardrobe hahaha. I was afraid of breaking anything and then the game forced/allowed me to do it 😁

I agree with everyone saying the difficulty progression feels great. At the beginning of the 4th level I almost screamed, but I managed to finish everything

Don't Touch My Legos by Legolula 2023-10-03T19:02:27Z ♥ 0

Don't. F**k. With my Legos. 🔫

Calves of the Braves by Furano 2023-10-03T18:54:34Z ♥ 2

Hahaha, this is fun! I wanna play it with a friend ^^

Spooky Space by Wbertrand 2023-10-03T18:41:40Z ♥ 1

Nice game! The puzzles felt intuitive and the tutorial is seamless and very neat, congrats! I also think the style of the characters and how each direction plays a different chord is cute. Everything feels nicely tied in

I got the achievement ^^

The Jazz Cat by chispaLBC 2023-10-03T18:25:45Z ♥ 3

I love the art, it's so cuuute <3

I found the bug where you can place dishes in wrong positions, but I had a blast trying to fit as many dishes as possible with it hahaha

Winds Of Pilgrimage by Medow 2023-10-03T16:01:18Z ♥ 1

Omg, that last puzzle was very difficult! I couldn't stop playing until finishing it. Really interesting mix of exploration and puzzle solving. Reminds me of how you find out how to solve puzzles in The Witness or Outer Wilds.

The only problem I had was that I couldn't find the small puzzles to figure out the mechanics. A little guidance would've been great for that. But amazing game nonetheless! 😄

(Un)limited Space by MateusGauto 2023-10-03T15:32:40Z ♥ 1

Very cute! I also struggled a bit to understand the cable puzzle and I didn't know you could click on the thing that shows the final puzzle. But I think keeping the mouse like this actually forces you to look for it and pay attention (instead of brute-forcing your way out), so I liked it :)

The art looks very clean and I found the game very fun

Bitter Retirement by Chaineddreamer 2023-10-03T15:20:03Z ♥ 1

I liked the idea of the game and it was fun trying to get past the winged guys. If you ever want to improve the game, maybe you could add more ways to hit the box. Every time one of those guys send a box flying back I wanted to kick it back to them soooo bad. Kind of like a mid-air pong with toxic waste hahaha 😄

Nice first entry, congratulations! 👏

Small Fish Smaller Tank by Peter Niles 2023-10-03T15:12:38Z ♥ 1

A small fish got in front of me and blocked me from escaping the big fish 😭 But I made it to 60 points before that happened!

I liked the progression, adding more big fishes. But the small ones are too annoying: eats your food, blocks you, and there are a lot of them. Maybe they could serve as food as well?

Nice game!

Asteroid Base by JOZGames 2023-10-03T15:06:12Z ♥ 1

I got to x10!

I can very easily see this progresing with different asteroid shapes and new buildings to place. It would be great to have something to defend against the invaders as well.

Space Trucks by digital bacon 2023-10-03T14:51:53Z ♥ 1

That song is great, I was grooving to it while waiting for more crates to appear 😁

I would've like some kind of progression. What do we get S$ for? I'd like to buy bigger trucks (as you mention in a comment), more storage space, maybe even get different contracts so you end up transporting new types of cargo with different shapes (imagine having to keep "human cargo" waiting in storage until a cryogenic truck shows up hahah)

But anyways, I'm just asking for more because I like the execution of this game. Great job!

A Tail of Escape by Rorried 2023-10-03T13:55:15Z ♥ 1

I love the game having so many options and I love its humor <3

Occhiolism by moonlightbomber 2023-10-03T13:37:36Z ♥ 1

I really, really liked the idea of thinking of trauma-triggering spaces as limiting the total space a person can access in their lives. I think there's a good conversation to be had regarding that idea, which delves into interesting topics of psychology and philosophy.

But instead of focusing on that, the game focuses on the dynamic between John Oscar and Patty Nicole. Which is too one-sided. It's almost as if she isn't human, just an obstacle between a good date and the main character, or a pet to care for in some other times. It was uncomfortable to play :(

I would have appreciated more insights into what goes into their heads. What is Patty feeling when her trauma is triggered? How does John Oscar feel when he cannot help? How do they feel this might affect their relationship? How do they feel after the incident has happened? Like, is the day ruined or do they find another way to be happy together?

Regarding the ending, I think it is meant to be inspiring, with the main character promising to avenge his girlfriend. But that also left me with a sour taste. That would be like "an eye for an eye", perpetuating violence. I think John Oscar should focus on helping Patty Nicole heal, not avenge her.

Maybe I was just not the target audience for this novel, sorry.

It Gazes Back by Sylvic 2023-10-03T13:01:17Z ♥ 1

I got to the ending where you see the eyes and it's sick, I love it!

When trying to get the good ending I kept getting errors saying 'Sayer "y" is not defined" or something similar. There were some lines of dialog I couldn't see, but apparently it jumped from ending to ending so I could see all of them. And I have to say I'm baffled, I don't know how to get to some of them. I think that's very cool.

It could've probably used some more ambience/music to better adapt to the mood of the scene (I only heard 2 different ambience tracks), but that's the only complain I have.

The Darkest Of Maze by BorderDestroyer 2023-10-03T02:11:04Z ♥ 2

Nice atmosphere! I had a very tense moment where I was missing 3 orbs and the monster/glitchy wall was right behind me. I managed to escape and win in the end :)

Nebula Odyssey by AugustCoder 2023-10-03T01:01:04Z ♥ 1

After getting enough magnets there was nothing crashing on the ship, so I couldn't do much. It felt super comfy actually. Maybe it was luck? xD

+1 to @strato's comment about progression, I would love to see more of this (even outside the jam). This is exactly the kind of game I would play for hours and hours!

Fantasy Haven by Arti Dev 2023-10-03T00:45:29Z ♥ 1

Very interesting puzzle! I got 30/40 but I honestly have no idea how to get a better score. I'll keep trying :)

Profits in Proportion by don.shinski 2023-10-03T00:15:34Z ♥ 1

Love this! I usually struggle with insecurities while drawing, but I had a lot of fun drawing in this game. Thank you for that <3

Bimbi's Cosmo Party by Frib 2023-10-03T00:06:02Z ♥ 3

I loved the minigame and the characters are cute. The voice is so funny! xD

Sourdough Starter Simulator by kristina 2020-04-22T16:54:59Z ♥ 1

I knew somebody else must have had the same idea! <3

I loved your game! It was fun to play and I really like how cute the starter movement animation looks.

The Protective Samurai by Eulalia Porto Figueroba 2020-04-21T20:09:10Z ♥ 2

It launches Steam VR when I launch the game. What? Hahahaha.

I love the kind of games that allow 2 people to share the experience. Playing alone can be a bit difficult. The music is great!

Locked'goshi by StabAlarash 2020-04-20T22:38:07Z ♥ 1

Ah! This reminded me of old Tamagotchis. This is a really cool idea!

I love the graphics and the game is interesting and challenging. I didn't realize there was a button to work until the very last day, when I didn't have money for a pizza. I wish I could so much time without working in real life hahahah

Dog Walk Danger by Patrick1 2020-04-20T22:18:38Z ♥ 1

We tried to climb a mountain and my dog started rolling down hahahaha. Cute little game, I like it!

Thrive by bassguitarbill 2020-04-20T21:58:58Z ♥ 1

Nice litte game. The mood really reminded me of Yume Nikki, so I really really loved that. Good job!

Feeding Time! by ghostonline 2020-04-20T21:53:19Z ♥ 1

Really cool. As the levels progressed I was thinking "it's getting stronger, I shouldn't be feeding it" xD Reminds me of the lady that kept a BowWow as a pet in Link's Awakening hahaha. Love it <3

Rolly and the Flower by Rolly 2020-04-20T21:38:11Z ♥ 1

The flower is just sooooo cute! <3

Efi by ludipe 2020-04-20T21:20:03Z ♥ 1

Died 111 times, gave it 5555555 rating. Really amazed at how well refined and balanced the art looks. Super interesting level design, and this is a really nice twist on tank controls!

Ambulance chase by nick0124 creator 2020-04-20T20:54:41Z ♥ 1

Why did the ambulance cross the road? To loose the black that was chasing it, of course!

I want to take a moment to appreciate how good the camera feels. Even if the game world is small, having the camera rotate around while following the player obstructs the player's view, making it harder to predict what will appear. It makes for some surprising interactions (specially with cars on the road you didn't see coming!)

Embers by Anuke 2020-04-20T20:49:05Z ♥ 0

Cool concept and really nice execution! I feel like I could play this for hours

Tiny Fragments by Daniel Moreno 2020-04-20T20:32:13Z ♥ 1

This mechanic is really great and the level design is on point! Great job, man.

Are you planing on extending this game? The puzzles were very clever.

King's Table by PetTurtle 2020-04-20T20:23:02Z ♥ 1

The art and sound are on point. But most importantly, I spent the last 5 songs just playing this game. This is really, really hard to put down! Well done!

The joys of parenthood by IronyGames 2020-04-20T19:51:09Z ♥ 2

Dude, I played this game in catalan and it made it too real for me. Too close to home. Molt bon treball! I loved the atmosphere and I loved the plot twist in the end.

Of The Dark by cogcomp 2020-04-20T19:36:47Z ♥ 0

Really love the look and sound of the game, but I didn't understand the objective too well. Also, the camera + controls kind of reminded me of Doom and I loved it!

Coronary Flypass by squirmonkey 2020-04-20T19:28:51Z ♥ 1

Fucking pidgeons man. Heroically recovered the heart in middle air after avoiding a sniper shot and just when I was dropping the heart at the destination, a pidgeon headbutted the heart out of the goal and grabbed the basket, pulling me away. Horrible game.

Just kidding, I loved it hahaha. Really fun to play!
