LD48 — Deeper and deeper

Vast Trivia Of The Void by JorgeGameDev 2021-04-30T00:50:27Z

I really dig this. It's weird, full of weeb stuff, kept me guessing. It's a really wild departure from the "standard" LD48 game. Art style is wild and interesting. If I was going to make any suggestions it would be to reduce the detail in some of the screens as they're a bit overwhelming. But super solid all around.

Boombox by auxC 2021-04-30T00:48:22Z

Truly excellent. I had to play a few times to get it, but damn, this is a *solid* damned game.

Deep Sea Teddy Dive by winniehell 2021-04-27T15:09:17Z

This is cute asf. Music is banging, graphics look good, too. Overall really wonderful. The controls/gameplay are a little hard to work with, but maybe that's part of the charm and the challenge.

F.R.I.E.N.D. by Jake White 2021-04-28T01:36:22Z

I really dig it. I think it has some issues, but there's a lot of fun little game here. The visuals and presentation are really fabulous. The camera is pretty hateful, however, and some of the mechanics are unintuitive. Nice little game, altogether. I want to revisit it and get further into it, and I think that's the mark of a good game.

Deeper Into Enemy Lines! by Ganny 2021-04-30T00:43:51Z

I feel like I shouldn't like this game because of sort of simplistic graphics and gameplay... but I kind of love it? It's just such a joy to play. I finished it and I'm really glad I did. Well done.

Snake Oil by OrdiNeu 2021-04-28T01:26:23Z

You swung hard with this, and I admire the hell out of it. You did a lot really well, it's gorgeous and you've built a really interesting little world. It's not clear enough imo what is the play mechanic or what to do next, but it's lovely and I like it. One of your devs told me on twitch tonight you rebuilt a lot of it Sunday because you had to pivot, and that's a heroic feat. Altogether you should be really proud of this and I like what you've done here.

Ramón by jjcp 2021-04-27T15:30:24Z

Love this, best one I've seen today. Gonna come back and play some more tonight.

How to Swim! by backurio 2021-04-28T01:34:39Z

Oooh this game is hateful. The dev hung out with me on stream and chatted with me as I played this game (very badly).

It's an excellent example of the genre (QUOP and Getting Over It were provided examples and they suit it)

My favorite thing is the "tutorial button" that takes you to a Youtube video. Such a troll. Love it. Glad this got made for LD. You're awesome.

How to Swim! by backurio 2021-04-28T17:50:20Z

@backurio I'm always glad that my suffering can bring some joy to others haha. I did piece together that there might have been some method to your madness but I love the additional layer of it just loading that YT video. Great job all things considered!

Deep Dungeon Tactics by Aditya Kumar 2021-04-30T00:42:07Z

Very cool little game. Nice to see the strategy RPG genre represented in LD48, and a unique spin on the theme. I'm definitely going to save it and come back and try and finish it. Great work!

Sheltered Deep by ThorPalsson 2021-04-27T16:09:45Z

Very impressive.

Aqua Mine by kypello 2021-04-28T01:24:04Z

Adore this. Love the lowpoly look and the play mechanic is tremendous. Great little game. Would/will play again.

DO NOT INSERT INSIDE THE EAR CANAL!!! by cheesepencil 2021-04-28T01:43:10Z

I prefer the REAL Ludum Dare.

3c51d.jpg PERFECTION.

Deep Treasure by Wesley Vong 2021-04-27T15:13:26Z

A lot of good here. I want to call it "Slavoj Zizek vs the Gollums" and that makes me laugh--not sure what your inspiration was for the characters. I think lack of sound effects and animation makes it less fun, but the gameplay mechanic is nice and simple. Art is solid, just wish there was more of it.

The Bothnia Trench by Milestone Games 2021-04-28T01:37:35Z

I was not expecting an Adventure/ScummVM style game, but this is a great example of one. I like this as one chapter of a larger game and hope you continue the series. Wonderful entry, it was a delight.

Catlantis by fabula_rasa 2021-04-27T15:04:20Z

Whoops, I got a network error. I'll try again and try another version later.

Catlantis by fabula_rasa 2021-04-27T15:56:14Z

@fabula-rasa I will try and play it again and leave feedback. Looks cute from the outside!

Deep Abyss by Taranis Elsu 2021-04-27T15:17:58Z

Gorgeous environment. I think the feel would be improved immensely if the enemies reacted and it was clear what the "attack" did. It's also not clear to me where to go... I went "deep" and then I couldn't see my player character anymore and died...

The Core by guimoliveira 2021-04-27T14:59:33Z

I really like it. Intro, like others say, is too long. Gameplay is great, and is just hard enough I want to play it more. For a one person game, well done. Could use some nicer graphics/music, but solid and fun.

Agent In Depth by Yigit Doruk 2021-04-28T01:40:38Z

Absolutely killer. I want to play more. I'll just have to have my eardrums rebuilt before I do it...

I kid, but depending on how somebody is listening the audio could really blow someone's butt out.

I will be coming back and finishing this game. It's quite good.

Pearl Diver by Martin183 2021-04-30T00:40:58Z

I like this, it's very enjoyable to play. The visuals leave a *little* to be desired but they get the job done. It's altogether very enjoyable, and after I lose I come back wanting to finish... mark of a good game.

Frog by cacciatc 2021-04-30T00:45:16Z

Deadass love this game. If I had a flashcart I'd play it on original hardware, but I'm going to try it on my FPGA console and see how it runs. Really solid, really great little game. Shame about the crash at the ending, but dang, great effort, you all.

The Ocean Depths by ziggykac 2021-04-27T19:57:37Z

Cute, nice little game.

OVERDRILLED by everedx 2021-04-28T01:32:53Z

Great little game. I wish that there were maybe one or two fewer things to maintain, as I think the mechanic would be a little cleaner that way. It's gorgeous and wonderful, all things considered, just a bit more difficult than I feel like it should be. Great!

A Taste of the Past by Emily Pitcher 2021-04-28T01:28:33Z

You all should be very proud of this. I think there are some minor criticisms that I could have of it, but I think all in all, you've made a beautiful piece of art. I played this on stream with one of the creators in chat and I really liked it. I will finish the story on my own. It is a very, very compelling game. The writing in particular is *chef's kiss* and really makes this... haunting?

I'll see myself out.

A Taste of the Past by Emily Pitcher 2021-04-28T19:26:51Z

@emily-pitcher one of your creators was on it last night, I'm ezgoodnight on twitch as well as everything else.

The VOD of me playing this and many other LD games is up now. I'll be doing another stream Thursday, god willing and the creek don't rise!

Crust by exopunk 2021-04-30T00:37:56Z

Quite possibly my favorite LD48 game. Well done.

Swing Shroom by Quite Good 2021-04-30T00:38:54Z

Great little game. Play mechanic is a touch jank and it hurts my enjoyment of the game a little, but still a tremendous entry into LD48.

Asterisk by Crychair 2021-04-30T00:51:38Z

Very solid, very playable little game. There is some straight up incredible pixel art in it. The vocal is really well done also.

Drill Sergeant by GoldOne 2021-04-28T01:44:55Z

Very strong entry and nicely playable. The absence of music hurts it, but the gameplay is pretty good. I am reminded pretty positively of Cammander Keen. Nice job!

Miner Rescue by mausimus 2021-04-28T01:23:08Z

Very difficult, but I really enjoy it. I want to get better at it. Clever and gorgeous retro design.

Deep Sleep by Link270 2021-04-30T00:54:18Z

Very moving, very interesting take on the game. Great example of the "Walking Simulator" (not meant negatively) genre. Really enjoyed it, love the look, feel, and sound of the game. We talked on stream--I agreed with you that the puzzles are a little hard to figure out, the context and clues are not always clear. Something to work on, but a lot of really great bones here. Impressive achievement.

RED to the past by Spaint 2021-04-27T19:49:03Z

based

DeeperOne by HandsomeShan 2021-04-27T15:26:31Z

Very interesting concept and a lot of very pretty stuff going on. Gameplay/controls are a little unrewarding on first blush.

Labyrinth of the Undead by D34TH0FTIT4N5 2021-04-28T01:47:26Z

I like it! It's a bit lacking in some areas, but I like the challenge. I got pretty far into it it seems, and think it's pretty good. I think it could use a little facelift, or as others have suggested a couple new mechanics as it progresses. I kind of like how hateful the controls are, but maybe others may not. In general a nice entry and I enjoyed playing it.

Fish for Meaning by Steve Johnstone 2021-04-28T01:39:08Z

I really do love this little game. I think you should playtest it for mobile and maybe make a few little quality of life improvements. But it's a sweet little game and for a first time game jam, I'm damn impressed. It's really nice, and I'm glad I got to play it.

How Deep is Your Love by Bruno Cafe 2021-04-30T00:52:27Z

Well, this was a blast. That twist ending. Great look, nicely playable, great humor. Really enjoyed it.

CHROMAHOLIC by Secret Magic 404 2021-04-28T01:30:32Z

I'm very confused about the gameplay on this one. It's a shame because it's one of the most gorgeous games I've played today. Sound is amazing too. I think if you had some playtesting and revision time you could have a real masterwork on your hands. Thank you for making such an interesting Jam game.
