LD24 — Evolution

Shit! It's evolving by fruitfly 2012-09-01T19:14:00

audio verison did not work for me for the same reasons others have complained about. Maybe this http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5529754/java-io-ioexception-mark-reset-not-supported will help to fix that ;).

Overall nice game - reminds me a lot of the old doom times. Did you also write the raytracer within the 48h? If so this is really astonishing!!! Btw: where is the source? ;)

TOWER of Evolution by SiENcE 2012-08-27T14:36:00

nice game with hidden monkey mode!

Ages of Irving by Deconstructeam 2012-09-08T19:18:00

lol - really funny game!

Magna Systems Inc. by recursor 2012-08-27T21:32:00

Nice game - very good implementation of the theme!

Lucas's Quest Backwards by Volute 2012-08-28T14:59:00

Really good level design! And a nice varity of block types that make the game fun.

Cuboid Sandbox by cominu 2012-09-09T19:05:00

graphic looks nice :) Do you use a built in shader of unity or did you write it yourself for LD?

B07s by Moebius 2012-08-28T07:38:00

Yes - time was the issue here ;) I planned a lot of more things to do. Starting by more blocks down to items and different shaped rooms.

I still develop on this game but of course this is a version freeze for this contest :)

As for the XP issue - I had no time to test the game on various platforms. I will try to get my hands on some XP machine to check that out. In the meantime if you are running XP and have the black screen issue, open up the commandline, start it with "java -Xmx1G -jar b07.exe" and paste the result as a comment here. This would help me a lot - thanks! :)

B07s by Moebius 2012-08-28T20:33:00

If you are stuck at "creating level" try running it from command line with "java -Xmx1G -jar b07.exe" or "java -Xmx1G -jar b07.jar" and please post the resulting output as comment. Thanks a lot!

B07s by Moebius 2012-09-01T22:49:00

I'm programming a game engine called moebius (http://www.moebius-engine.net) for over one year now using jmonkey. So I have some idea of jmonkey ;) But before that I didn't code any 3D game for a long time ...

Temple of Evolution by Codexus 2012-09-01T12:48:00

really good game and visuals!

Class Warfare by gabeochoa 2012-08-27T21:37:00

interesting idea - but it reminds me a lot of a visual test ;)

Mutagen by allinlabs 2012-09-08T18:29:00

good game - makes a lot of fun! The assimilation of the attacker's powers is a really nice adaption of the "evolution" theme :) Also nice fov implementation even if not really used in the game. ;)

kernel exception by ratking 2012-08-28T20:16:00

really good game - but needs some more elements I think to make it more lasting fun. The basic idea is really great! Fancy graphic/artwork!

The Legend of Elzad by arkeus 2012-09-11T14:30:00

nice engine and really nice Zelda clone. The graphics are amazing - nice work!

But yes - the theme is not really identifiable so people could believe you created it before LD.

Epocalypse by wupto 2012-08-28T20:42:00

pro: greate idea, good music and visuals
contra: can't heal ;)

The SuperBugs by Josh @ Dreamland 2012-09-08T18:52:00

really nice game. Especially the flame thrower is great altough I think there are a little bit too many blood paricles sometimes ;) At least my state of the art machine is laggig a bit if I kill more than three bugs with the flame thrower ...

OF SPECIES by kato9 2012-08-28T20:25:00

Interesting game. Really good graphics and matching sfx! Somehow reminds me of Prometheus.

HumanTECH by minism 2012-09-12T09:49:00

nice game - graphic updating is a bit slow for my taste - but overall really nice style.

LD26 — Minimalism

PONK by Sos 2013-05-01T21:42:00

Crazy idea. But perfect match on the theme. Still I'm a bit disapointed that you didn't solder real potentiometers on your C64 to play the game like it was meant to be played ;)

Exception by Moebius 2013-04-29T09:35:00

I explained the objective now in more detail here: http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/2013/04/29/exception-let-me-see-your-red-eyes/

Outside the Box by GSM Productions 2013-05-06T13:05:00

Hmm ... it starts (slowly as announced) but after the dialog the screen just stays grey - nothing happens after that :(

The Only Rocketeer by Monxcleyr Productions 2013-05-06T12:33:00

This looks somehow familliar. I think I saw something like that two LDs ago ;) Still nice concept. But I think it's a bit too hard to solve the hull breach puzzle in such short time ...

Box's World by avidgamerNino 2013-04-30T08:13:00

Nice idea and very fitting to the theme. Only thing that I disliked was that when you start you see nothing and think it is still loading or sth. Maybe provide a visual clue that the game has already startet.

Cubed Dream by SteFilms 2013-05-06T13:21:00

Simple but nice game. Very fitting to the minimalism theme. Also: the story develops and that makes the game more interresting so you keep playing it. Very well done!

Cube Labyrinth by GreyBody 2013-05-06T13:11:00

Very minimalistic but fun. Interresting icon. Odd: I have 0 health but I'm not dead (yet?).

Dwalk by Joritan Cety 2013-04-29T11:42:00

Nice game - collision detection is a bit clumsy but overall a fun game.

A technically remark: try to compile your files to be 1.6 compatible because most people haven't upgraded to 1.7 yet :)

Against the Current by iambored2006 2013-05-06T13:26:00

Interresting concept - even with a bit of Portal influence.

Towers of Rage by robotality 2013-05-06T12:12:00

Pixel violence - I love it! Disturbingly addictive! And libGDX - really nice. Only thing I miss is an endless mode with random generated towers ;)

Where is Pixel by ananasblau 2013-04-30T08:19:00

Took me some time to realize that the three pixel in the main screen are in fact this "Pixel" guy.
While the idea is quite nice I personally think the levels are a bit too easy ;)

Dream Fishing by Sophie Houlden 2013-05-01T21:49:00

Inspiring game. Lots of good advices :) But still fishing for the potato ...

Shoot (AAA_FPS_GOTY) by quill18 2013-05-01T12:37:00

Nice Quake clone - but sadly gets boring very quick. Still very impressive that you did this in 48h and funny voices! :)

LD27 — 10 Seconds

Steven Seagal: Hard to SWAT by farmergnome 2013-09-15T11:00:00

Well done - I think this is one of the best entries! :)

10 Seconds to Insanity by dagothig 2013-09-02T09:30:00

Wow - great atmospheric game! And quite scary! Still I think the first randomly generated level I got was unsolvable - just solid doors and no more keys - so: do you check if the level is solvable?

Also: things like "long seed = now.getTime() + oldseed;" won't make it more random ;)

But sill a really pretty game! I like it :)

Chronobender by XmmmX 2013-09-04T12:32:00

Nice entry and good job using only lwjgl! Only the time bending concept was not completely clear to me - I figured it adds the time up each floor you reach?!

And just a hint: you should (if possible) wrap up your game using an exe wrapper like jSmooth - makes it a lot easier and removes the need for the ugly dos box ;)

Terminal 10 by alts 2013-09-03T09:18:00

Really funny game - I saved the parachute more than once - yay!

Extreme Trauma Surgeon by Blooperly 2013-09-05T09:30:00

Damn, I think he is dead, Jim! On the other hand he also swallowed the cap ;)

I really enjoyed playing that game but I think I killed the patient :P

When He Left by winesays 2013-08-26T21:12:00

Playing god is obviously not so easy. I think I might be responsible for setting off the apocalypse ... Still: great game! I really like the visuals in combination with the depth of field filter.

10 Seconds Before the World Ends by Lustdante 2013-09-12T17:10:00

Really nice idea :)

10 Seconds to Loot ALL the Things by Muznak 2013-08-26T11:49:00

Good game - the gameplay somehow reminds me of Diablo 3 ;)

10 seconds to...SAVE THE WORLD! by sidious 2013-09-02T09:15:00

Funny little game. But isn't that the clock ticking sound from the TV series 24?

Tenth Second by RandomM00 2013-08-26T11:45:00

Nice idea - and interesting choice of programming language!

And to William Bundy: the file is obviously a zip file and not a gzip file ;) - try using unzip

LD29 — Beneath the Surface

The Drowning Man by stoo 2014-04-29T11:26:00

Nice game! The music is also very fiting. Well done!

Wormhunter by Thorig 2014-04-29T12:40:00

The artwork is great, but I got some flickering sprites in fullscreen (small black line appears under some of the enviroment sprites, depends on the camera position). Also sometimes the worm just wouldn't show up at all - sometimes it just ate me directly after the start ;) Still a very clever idea and (when the worm appears) a fun game!

The Sub Marine - Alpha by marccspro 2014-04-29T18:27:00

This brought back a lot of memories of good old Duke Nukem. And you also have 5+ weapons. Perfect game!

Drowning in Problems by Notch 2014-04-29T18:31:00

Interesting. And brilliant. Kudos!

LD34 — Two Button Controls / Growing

Concrete Jungle by Miltage 2015-12-14T15:40:00

Love the mechanic. Really good implementation of the themes. Also the time passing effect is quite cool!

Plant Lab by Moebius 2015-12-14T15:33:00

No, I didn't use the L-System. I hadn't really time to work into that so I created my own little algorithm ;)

And that editing genomes is not very opaque is by design.

Plant Lab by Moebius 2015-12-16T14:50:00

Thanks @zedutchgandalf for the info. The problem with the scrollbars in Firefox is now fixed :)

LOAD"KHOMODORIA+2.RPG",8,1 by Creative Sectors 2016-01-03T23:10:00

Nice game. Very retro - brought back some good memories of my old C64. Also nice to see the Giana Sister's loading thingy again! :)

The Great Adventure of Wania Romanow by kristoverek 2015-12-16T14:34:00

Interesting sound/visual combination. Reminded me somehow of SOS' games. Also there seems to be a bug when the game is over saying something like "the game might be broken now" ;)

GrowBot by zagony 2015-12-16T14:29:00

Nice game! Only thing that bugs me was that you put growing on space when normally that key is used for jumping. Maybe it would be better to use some other key for that ;)

Build Town by TeamMJZ 2015-12-16T15:08:00

Reminds me somehow of Towns ;) I like the style but the game definitly needs some more polishing. Also: the web player always shows me a popup menu when I right click to move my people.
