LD56 — Tiny Creatures

Death Harbor by f1tzy 2024-10-23T14:18:46Z

tbh this was so fun the only thing i would change is the shooting to have 360 directions instead of just 8, maybe for the rabbits too, other than that this was a great game!

Tiny Invaders by yosefu 2024-10-07T15:42:54Z

Don´t wanna be mean cause i love the concept but i don't think it was executed well. First of all there isn't a tutorial which makes it really hard to understand, and the magnifying glass should be a starting tool because of it being so important for the game. (just some feedback tho, don't take it too seriously)

Tiny Invaders by yosefu 2024-10-08T02:44:30Z

Hey @yosefu, maybe i missunderstood the game, but from what i remember of my playthrough you had to BUILD and use resources to get a magnifying glass, as a starting tool i mean it's there from the begining, so if i'm correct (which maybe i'm not) i think it would help if you could use from the start of the game without needing to build it (hope i'm expressing myself well this time). Just some feedback tho, have a great day

🐜 Antwars 🐜 by Mibi88 2024-10-07T14:58:36Z

Cool concept but it was kinda too easy too beat, you can definitely improve on it tho

Little sparkle by okEly 2024-10-08T02:09:31Z

This is a really fun game, i actually wanna see you expand on it because it felt too short but really cool!

Rat Chase by jaken007 2024-10-07T15:03:54Z

Nice game, but it would be nicer if it explained the mechanics to you, took me a little while to understand it

a tiny HUGE escape by EricNS 2024-10-07T23:57:44Z

@mmm1008fm yeah sorry about that, some doors glitched and i didn't know how to fix them (it's just visual tho, the characters should be able to go through it)

a tiny HUGE escape by EricNS 2024-10-08T00:00:56Z

@tuism thx for the feedback! The static camera is actually a really good idea, i'll try it out later (won't post an update with it here tho) and some things are just a limitation of the program, like the controls being kinda mid and the art looking unconsistent (it completely blurried the background and idk why), i'll try to learn something like Unity for my next jam

a tiny HUGE escape by EricNS 2024-10-14T23:01:39Z

@kseniya thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed my buggy mess!

a tiny HUGE escape by EricNS 2024-10-14T23:02:57Z

@doublemintben thanks for the feedback! Tbh even myself got confused with what keys were for each character but I'll remake it some day adding the numbers and making the camera better, glad you liked it!

a tiny HUGE escape by EricNS 2024-10-27T01:15:05Z

@cassowary thx so much for your feedback!! Most bugs come from limitations from the engine i used, but i still had a lot of fun, so next time I'll try to use Unity instead

a tiny HUGE escape by EricNS 2024-10-27T01:16:35Z

@kobato-games thx you so much! The mouse mechanic was one of the first things i thought of, and surprisingly it worked really well, so I'm glad you enjoyed it!

LD58 — Collector

BIGDIG by Willops 2025-10-11T17:51:45Z

Great game, i think this game lowkey has potential, reminds me of those old PopCap games for pc (in a good way)

GreedyDude by Nnnnneeeedddd 2025-10-09T15:11:26Z

I lowkey wanna see this turn into a full game, really fun

Having Fun Yet? by NoahRo 2025-10-10T17:00:08Z

It's a really cool concept! I think i found a bug tho, my player died and nothing was going on so i used the pause button to go back to the menu, and when i restarted the enemies just wouldn't spawn, i walked around for 2 entire minutes and couldn't find a single one, but overall great game!

Dirge of the Sleeping Bell by Jiffy 2025-10-10T16:51:25Z

Absolute peak, if you could find a way to expand the story i would genuinely buy it, it's a really great experience

GLÜBOP by kristinamay 2025-10-07T14:23:37Z

It's a cool game, but i had a really hard time understanding it at first (i mean that's kinda the point isn't it)

Catorus by TopperVideoGames 2025-10-09T14:34:58Z

Really fun game, very interesting concept! Felt a bit short but had a decent challenge level

Greedy Collector by José Bonilla 2025-10-12T01:55:15Z

Cool game, it's a pretty nice game loop

Unholy Black Hole by bereg 2025-10-06T00:38:53Z

Honestly, this might win the Compo, it's really really fun, can't believe you made this in two days

The Sealed Power by GameDevTraum 2025-10-07T13:59:41Z

It's a nice experience, it's got a nice ambience and sound design, i just feel like it's lacking replayability, but overall pretty polished

Fartnite by osh.studio 2025-10-11T17:30:12Z

I accidentally stumbled into peak, absolute cinema, this should be the standard for AAA games

Skull Issue by KAVERZA 2025-10-07T16:24:14Z

Cool concept, but it feels a bit unfair, the dogs are just really fast for you when your body isn't full, still, cool game

Computer Virus by Lunaria Rava 2025-10-06T00:27:35Z

It was kinda short but i had fun with it, nice game!

Bail-out by kazetheroth 2025-10-07T14:05:58Z

Fun game but it's a little hard getting used to the controls

CollectAnts by EricNS 2025-10-06T00:15:12Z

my second game jam, let's gooooooo, i honestly thought i wasn't gonna make it on time but i did so that's hype

CollectAnts by EricNS 2025-10-06T13:01:37Z

@bereg thanks for the feedback! I have no idea how to fix that one bug lol, and you're right i should've added more feedback but I'm busy all monday so i had to finish it yesterday, but I'll have that in mind if i ever finish the game

CollectAnts by EricNS 2025-10-07T15:58:26Z

@ira-baciu thanks for the reminder, i'll get on it

CollectAnts by EricNS 2025-10-07T15:59:07Z

@wormkingboo thanks! i wish i had more time to give more feedback, but still, glad you liked it!

CollectAnts by EricNS 2025-10-08T22:04:06Z

@schu thank bro!

CollectAnts by EricNS 2025-10-09T14:10:50Z

@toppervideogames thanks for the feedback! i honestly like the general concept so i'll eventually update it, and will probably add limits to upgrades so you don't get an absurd amount of resources like you did, but glad you like it! i'll make sure it still can get a little bit broken so it's still a bit funny

CollectAnts by EricNS 2025-10-09T15:49:34Z

@kazuren thanks for the feedback! would've added it but had no time

@beebster-games sorry you didn't get it, i did add a how to play section that explains how the game works but it does fall a bit short, and you had to alt f4 because of a bug i didn't know how to fix, my bad. also i don't know how to export it to web, Godot would just bug out and wouldn't let me export it, i don't have a lot of experience exporting games so i'm not sure what was the issue

CollectAnts by EricNS 2025-10-09T16:06:25Z

@yibirabbit007 thanks for trying my game! i think the problem is i didn't have time to add any visual feedback, maybe try upgrading speed and you might notice a difference? still, the upgrades start costing more with each upgrade you make, so maybe you think it's not doing anything but you simply don't have enough resources, i did terrible on feedback to the player for anything, sorry

CollectAnts by EricNS 2025-10-10T00:34:38Z

@yibirabbit007 didn't actually know that was a thing that could happen, didn't have time to playtest a lot. the collector part was more about the resource collectors tho. thanks for the feedback.

CollectAnts by EricNS 2025-10-11T17:19:42Z

@kenneth-gibson yeah, sorry about that, i wish i had more time to add some visual feedback, and i had no idea how to fix the menu bug, but thanks for trying my game tho!

CollectAnts by EricNS 2025-10-13T01:10:51Z

@b0guslaw thank you so much for the feedback! i run out of time to implement sounds and feedback, but i would've definetely added them. as for the text, i have no idea why it's so pixelated, Godot just was fighting against me while making the game lol

@dumchevdev tysm!

Monsters in Jars by T4RAN 2025-10-09T14:48:24Z

This game has a lot of potential outside of Ludum Dare, it's a really fun game loop with a lot of potential!

Little monster makehouse by Yatsu 2025-10-09T14:20:43Z

It's a nice idea and really fun game, but dang it's fast, it gets really tough

GRIBNIK by DNK 2025-10-10T16:05:17Z

It had a really polished atmosphere, but i really wasn't sure what was i supposed to do, so i just roamed around collecting mushrooms

Collectorogue by HappySealGames 2025-10-09T14:27:48Z

really nice game, i've never seen such an unique concept! but it would be nice displaying the battles on the hud, because i don't end up paying attention to them

ColorCollector by huihang 2025-10-10T15:59:32Z

It's a cool game with a cool concept, but it got really confusing at some points, still, really fun experience

A suspicious game by Dalanbart 2025-10-07T16:12:20Z

Really fun game, but i feel like time runs out a bit too fast

Greedios by Tyrannos 2025-10-07T14:33:10Z

I think i got the hang of it, but a tutorial would've been very useful, even if just a little bit of text explaining how the game works
