Really fun - the physics was satisfying and the graphics were good. I tended to have fun ignoring the briefcase mission and just going around shooting things.
Performance dipped at times on my machine but it was bearable. The particle effect was a little gratuitous, but the rest of the graphics were on-point.
The graphics and sound were absolutely fantastic. The platforming felt solid with one or two slight mishaps while picking things up, but overall it felt incredibly polished for a jam game!
Great graphics and fun gameplay, I really enjoyed this :)
Outstanding. Absolutely fantastic graphics, sound and concept.
I enjoyed this quite a lot - despite the graphics being rather simple, they conveyed a decent mood and the gameplay variety was well done!
Ambitious and endearing - I really enjoyed this. It felt particularly polished and un-rushed as a lot of jam games will feel like.
Great graphics and fun physics, this was pretty satisfying. The roads felt like they were quite long so the start was a bit slow, but that soon changed. I also got stuck in the trees a couple of times.
Good mood and fun to sneak around in, all-round polished nicely!
Amusing, enjoyable RPG. Nice to have something a little old school. Great job!
Great graphics and the gameplay that is there is good :)
This felt pretty original in it's idea, and I had a lot of fun almost catching him for ages.
The graphics and music were both pretty tight and well done too, great job!
This was one of the best games I've played from Jam 33 yet - it's very fun, feels polished and plays really well. You should be really happy with your result!
The sound and Mood were great - it has a definite feel to it.
The movement didn't feel perfect but I like the method of attacking, it felt a bit novel.
I knew I could download the dropbox folder as a zip at the top-right but a lot of people haven't noticed this - I'd suggest changing that!
Superb mood and audio, dripping with atmosphere! Short, but the spectacle of what is there was worth the trade-off imho.
Really enjoyable - I occasionally got stuck in the building debris but it was otherwise great! Smashing up things was really satisfying.
Perfect use of that song.
This game looks and feels great - unfortunately I sat alone hosting a game for quite a while.
Perhaps you could organise a time when you'll be in a game so that we can get a multiplayer session!
Slightly un-intuitive but once it clicked it was quite enjoyable. Original and great atmosphere!
Absolutely fantastic - the best LD game I've seen in absolutely ages. I adored the brush-work graphics and the audio was spot on too.
This is so much fun!
I liked the sense of humour, and the graphics and audio were pretty top-notch as well. The game was instantly understandable and enjoyable to play.
This was a pretty hefty idea to tackle in a game jam and it was surprisingly well done - i'm amazed that it's as fully fledged as it is. I enjoyed the meta-ness of the game shell wrapped around it, and the little snake-like intro game was a neat concept too.
Great graphics, cute use of the theme and satisfying gameplay. I was very pleased with the slide! I got lost a few times on where to go next, but this could have been me rather than a camera issue. fantastic entry.
The feel/vibe of this game is great - very Diablo 1-esque! Certainly an impressive base for two days, and using your own engine? Nice!
The hammer felt a little under-powered and slow vs. the scrolls which took out most things in one shot which I felt strained the pace of combat a little, but overall a good entry!
The platforming felt a little floaty but the graphics were cutesy and amusing. What I was most surprised by was your skill at making decent puzzles for a platformer using multiple abilities/mechanics all in a game jam. The shrinking one in particular could be expanded upon a lot in a longer game. Well done!
Wow! This was hilarious, professional and entertaining. Good use of the theme and all-round very polished. Very impressive!
The atmosphere was great on this game - music and sounds were superb, whoever did them knows their stuff! I thought the general concept was neat and the writing was both sharp and amusing. The gameplay itself felt like the weakest component but perhaps due to the fact that the other areas felt extra fantastic.
While it's fair to say that scope for this was perhaps not doable inside the space of a jam, the amount of modelling and effort put into the rather fantastic intro cutscene is really impressive, and paints the beginning of what would be a fun concept and gameplay structure. Exploring the human world as a tiny person is an idea that has been explored in the past but is always fun and novel every time, so props for the theme implementation. It would be great to see this as a longer-term project.
I can't decide whether the people are cute or terrifying (dependent on how long you stare at them for)
Wow. This feels really complete both from a content POV and a polish POV - very impressive. I love the graphics and the controls that start off confusing but become rather enjoyable once mastered. The gravity shift mechanic was a nice twist to separate it from its similarities to other couch coop games. Fantastic effort.
Cute, pretty, original and fun. This is a great entry with a solid level of quality across all areas (sound, graphics, gameplay, et al.) Great stuff.
I liked this a lot. Cute artstyle paired with some good sounds made for a good atmosphere, punctuated with some amusing humour. The gameplay was enjoyable too, it felt original and well executed as an idea for a jam which can be particularly difficult for puzzle game entries in jams.
I'm super impressed a pretty-much complete RTS was done for Ludum Dare - wow!
It felt like an early 90s shareware game from my childhood in a wonderfully nostalgic way, and felt very well-rounded and complete for a jam game.
Fantastic graphics, sound and atmosphere. I loved the art direction - incredibly well put together for such a short space of time.
The jumping puzzles were a bit frustrating in a 90's platformer sort of (bad) way, but otherwise it was really neat. I could see this being expanded into a bigger game for sure. Superb.
Wow the soundtrack, crazy cool! Satisfying and meaty feeling controls and gameplay, I'm impressed by the level of polish that your game managed to achieve in just a couple of days. I love the inversion of being the one attack the planet vs. the usual (space invaders, missile command, etc.)!
I enjoyed the graphics, sound and mood of this entry a lot - the more I imagined this farm the sadder I felt imagining this tiny space all on it's own. There isn't much gameplay to it, but it made me think a lot (perhaps unintentionally)!
This was really cool - I liked the concept of a tower defence in a sphere a lot. It was difficult but with repeated tries I quickly got the hang of it - perhaps a slowing ramping up of the numbers of UFOs would help?
The graphics were good and while I bumped into a couple of bugs (quitting to the main menu and starting again didn't put my starting $ back up to $1000) it was overall impressive for a compo entry.
This was a very impressive game to be made in 48 hours - the overall presentation speaks to have been done with much more time! I found the aiming to be a little hard, but the controls were otherwise good. The visuals were super cool and the music was pretty fitting. Great stuff.
@joe-cowman try running the prerequisites installer under **Engine/Extras/Redist/en-us/UE4PrereqSetup.msi** - let me know if that works!
@studiocraftapps-developpement Apologies! Compiling UE4 for macOS requires a mac computer itself and none of the team have one! Perhaps in the future it'll happen or Epic will add a cross-compiler to the windows/linux editors.
Thanks for all the feedback guys - I'm surprised that people aren't finding the oxygen plant - the random initial plant spawner might be unluckily not making any of them so I might alter it so it gives a rough split between them on game start. I'll look into the other minor bugs too.
Thanks for the feedback on the lack of a tutorial / the text being overload - I totally agree! To be honest it was all I could manage in the time we were given but in the next game we make we'll be sure to incorporate that sort of stuff as we go along!
This was a pretty complete feeling tower defence game - some of the weapons felt rather powerful but this is just a balancing issue - I run into this a lot in my own games too. The look and feel of the game was rather charming and somewhat amusing - I like the idea of taking a tower defence small onto a tiny scale given it's normally done on a rather large scale.
This is seriously slick - you nailed it graphically, the sound design was good and the gameplay was stressful in just the right way. Well done!
Amazing graphics, audio and mood. The puzzles were simplistic but let me soak in the atmosphere. Great job!
Everything about this entry was fantastically charming and engaging. Great entry - I really enjoyed it.
Really slick overall - everything felt smooth and polished for a jam game. Having to balance fighting with draining power while keeping an eye on your health made for a frantic rush! Great effort.
Wow, i'm really impressed with the amount of game you managed to get out in three days - it's a good take on the theme, the gameplay fun while managing to be a little different and the graphics are good too. I hope you're really satisfied with this!
Well done on completing your first LD entry! The gameplay idea reminds me of Missile Command, and was a good use of the theme. I often run out of time to do audio too, so I often use third party sounds which are then given credit (and not rated in that category) so perhaps try that in the future.
I hope you take part in LD40 too!
A dog arcade? Good use of theme, fantastic graphics and sound? How did you manage this for a jam! Well done!
A nice runner - I liked the barrel variety and the graphics were really great! It would have been good to have a little more variety on the mechanics of what the barrels did to you (especially the mystery ones) to add more variance. I managed to keep it going for a decent while where you could have been a bit meaner to the player once they got a bit further to really challenge them.
Keep up the good work and I hope you take part in LD40!
Bravo. Found on warpdoor, this is one of my favourite entries - I have pretty much no critique and can only express how great i think your entry is!
Great entry - it felt tough but fair. The graphics were cool and the changing audio was neat. I liked having to make tradeoffs in the moment-to-moment gameplay between picking up the +5s while hitting the negative ones.
Great presentation - the graphics and sounds were good - I particularly liked the particles! The gameplay was smooth and i quickly got into a comfortable rhythm that was engaging. The camera felt a little bit jerky / harsh but I soon got used to it. The level changes were a little abrupt too, but overall a really great submission.
We made it in Unreal Engine 4, sadly it's not quite as good as Unity at keeping file sizes down, sorry!
@rixud Assuming your drivers are all updated, it's probably down to it just not being very efficiently coded unfortunately - I struggled with getting it smooth even on my pc in the final hour of the jam.
I'll see if I can release a performance fix in the next day to improve the situation! :slight_smile:
This entry is great. It's a little too easy and slow, but the graphics and audio are great, and the actual gameplay loop is fine - I'd just ramp up the difficulty a little.
Really impressed you put together such a tight package for a jam. Great work!
Great graphics and sound, the platforming was decently challenging and a good use of the theme. Definitely one of my favourites of 39!
This might be the best use of the theme i've seen, bravo. Great gameplay combined with fun graphics and sound. I am very impressed!
Well done on your first entry! I liked the surprising perspective shift in-game, and the concept for the theme was well done. I always struggle with getting sound effects in too - I try to prioritise doing them a little earlier nowadays as a result.
I hope youtake part in LD40!
