A fun little game! Interesting mechanics, decent graphics and sound effects, what more can one want?
I'm not sure the music really works for this type of game though.

A fun little game! Interesting mechanics, decent graphics and sound effects, what more can one want?
I'm not sure the music really works for this type of game though.
An interesting experience! Very nicely done!
Maybe pacing was a bit slow at times, and maybe it was a bit unclear when to move forward and when to press space, but who cares when there's demon spaghetti?
(just one nitpick though, that's an 80s TTS, not a 90s one! :) )
I made it! Like many other people I didn't really fully understand what I was doing, but that didn't matter much, just keep digging up, replacing diggers as needed!
I really liked all of the art and audio aspects of this, nice work!
You're now at the required ratings, so not the end of the world, but based on your "Karma from Feedback given" number it looks like you've not been leaving comments on the games you rated. You should really do that, getting likes on your comments is a major way to get your smart balance up, which is the main way to get your game played!
Fun idea! I think I agree with @commanderstitch that being able to drag would be nice.
Overall I think this could grow to become a very fun toy, this semi-isometric way to show colours is very interesting!
It took me a while to understand what I was supposed to do, and then I managed to defeat the initial enemy once! No chance against the next wave though...
Not bad! It feels a bit unfinished, but then that tends to happen in LD
The gameplay works well, and the way you're told where to go is very effective without getting in the way. I liked the graphics, and despite what you said I think the audio sounds good too.
The one thing for me personally is that I'm not fond of "dark", so while the "you have to make choices and live with them" is good at setting the mood, it's not really a mood I enjoy. That's not a rating issue though, it's really just me.
An excellent game! I already knew some things going in (I watched @philstrahl play, so I knew about defensive drones needing to be upgraded), so maybe I had an easier time than intended.
I died once due to lack of oxygen, and I was happy I could continue!
Mood, sound and graphics are all very good, and gameplay is fun.
One thing I noticed at the end is that the drones refused to touch the very last block of iridium (which was in the lower right corner), and when I mined the last bit of that myself (yes, I'm weird. I wanted to clean up!) something went weird and the player character started moving *very* fast (about two tiles per frame). I'm also wondering if you added a loss condition when there aren't enough resources left to win, maybe I need to try!
Very nice mood-setting!
I was worried I wouldn't remember what the various powers did, but then I really only ended up using Grief (although Hope is useful if you mess up and end up surrounded!)
It does feel a bit repetitive after a while with basically only one power being needed, and once I got the hang of it it was probably a bit too easy, but those are nothing some level design sessions can't fix, and for a jam it's better to be too easy than too hard :)
I'll admit I didn't make it to the end :)
Overall a nice clicker.
Music is decent, but it would have been better if start and end were more meant for looping (not a big complaint, and I'm also speaking from the comfortable position of being in a team with someone who knows music. You're doing a lot better with it than I would!)
I think it would help if the numbers used a non-proportional font, but maybe it being hard to very quickly judge magnitudes is intended?
This was fun! Not too hard to get through, and seemingly no dead ends, so no frustration :)
The music and sound design are very impressive!
Very nice! I always like puzzle games, but even then this one is special. Great use of music to set the mood.
I'm not sure the "bigger room" idea really works later on, I feel the challenge shouldn't be to remember what's out of sight?
It also feels like the later levels are less clear, as in on level 9 I think my circle is perfectly adequate, but the game doesn't accept it and I'm not sure why, so there's not a lot I can do to fix it. Still, it's a jam game, so that sort of thing is normal and to be expected :)
Overall, great game!
I made it through, including stage 16! Very nice :)
Sokoban-with-a-twist is always great.
The level progression wasn't very even, I'm not sure if that was intended or not, but level difficulty went up and down a lot. Not necessarily a bad thing, it's nice to have a breather every now and then :) And getting sixteen levels done in an LD game is impressive!
It took me a bit to get used to the controls, Arrows are fine, but enter for menu and z and v for "do" and "cancel" are a bit odd. No big deal though!
Overall I always enjoy the pico-8 aesthetic, and you made the most of that, well done!
This was a fun game to play for a bit, smiling all the way through! The "Flower!" sound every time you summon a flower is great :)
I usually manage to get past 7 (unless I'm really careless) but over 10 feels hard! I think that's a good balance, I'm not sure I'd enjoy it if every run took half an hour.
One slight issue for me is that it immediately makes the fan of my graphics card go crazy, I imagine fps isn't limited? (playing on linux).
A nice little game! 17 hours isn't a lot, and getting something *finished* in that time is excellent!
Sound and graphics work very well together to set the mood.
Of course, with more time, there could be some extra things in it, such as have something "fun" happen when you get the magic words or candle order wrong ("fun" to be defined :) ). The one tiny thing I noticed that would improve UX is that the book could "rotate", i.e. when you're at the last page and you click right it could go back to the first.
I'm sure you've thought of those things already of course, and refinements not being there if you basically had one day is not surprising. Good job!
I always like seeing puzzle games!
I think I agree with most of the suggestions people have made, but to be honest, I suspect you know about those already :) Making a game in a new engine is a challenge, and debugging stupid stuff *always* takes more time than you expect or can spare, so getting this going is in itself an achievement, and I had fun playing it, so well done!
(yes, of course I was a bit disappointed when it ended. Such is the game jam experience...)
This is fun! I played a few games and spent an enjoyable 20 minutes or so. It's not the most complex game, but as it happens that was exactly what I was looking for :)
The music and sound really do enhance the experience, and they don't get annoying!
I like the look of the runes, but I'll admit that while I did get better at reading them, I still had to *really* focus to recognise the letters. I'm not sure that's ideal.
I think I'd have liked using the keyboard for submit and cancel, but I can also imagine forcing mouse for that to be intentional, not sure.
Overall a very solid game!
This is an excellent game! It feels a bit like sokoban, but with some clever twists and theme adaptations. I didn't manage to solve all levels (I'm also not good at harder sokoban levels. this isn't your fault :) ) Having nine levels finished in a game jam is pretty good too!
The graphics and sound work very well together and give a very suitable atmosphere, which is hard for a puzzle game.
Well done!
I lasted two days!
I suspect part of it is that I really don't have a lot of experience playing this type of game (I'm too old to have had a tamagotchi!)
I think I agree with what many people have said, the art is excellent and the bits of music are nice (although there could be more), and a "skip time until you can do something" button would be nice. I fully understand that that's not there, you *want* a non-jam version to be slow real-time-ish, but for rating jam games it's not ideal :)
Very nice overall though!
I tried playing on linux, but "libsteam_api.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory". I tried copying that from a random steam game but no luck (different errors, so it probably needs more than that) :(
This is very fun! Most of the levels need some thinking but they're definitely doable, Where I got stuck was at this one: stuck.png
I can't really figure out what to do here. I *think* I understand the mechanics involved, but that's about it.
Very impressive for a compo game! I'd expect two or three levels, especially given the sound and graphics work as well, so having this many levels is excellent!
I had to replay this several times to read more of the item descriptions, so well done! :)
Rubbing was a bit tricky at first, but luckily I have one of those fancy dpi-adjustable mice and slowing it down made it very doable.
A very nice take on the theme!
How did I not notice that I hadn't looked at this one yet?...
As usual I didn't get very far, but it's still always fun to get the commanderstitch experience!
An excellent concept! I went to timeless mode fairly early on because I wasn't in a frantic mood, so thanks for giving that option :)
After a while I got in a situation where I could always combine down to 1 or 2 and then use that to get to anything I needed, which while a bit tedious does work. Not in timed mode though I suspect!
I wonder if instead of one number repeating if you're doing an operation when you have few numbers left getting a random one instead would provide variety?
A lot of fun! I ended up playing for an hour or so. I'll admit that after a while I did lower the music volume, but I still think music, sound and graphics are excellent!
I wonder if there's a shuffling issue though, at one point I ended up getting mostly summons and weakens, with the occasional shield and stun. Based on my opponent also basically playing only those, I assume they had the same issue, and it look a *long* time to end that encounter, with me having 75 mana at the end because I didn't have anything useful to spend it on.
A very playable, good looking and good sounding game! I think I'm too tired right now to think of the right strategy so I didn't manage to defeat level 3, but I'll try to have another go tomorrow!
It took me a while to understand what I needed to do, but I suspect that's also on me.
Very nice music and graphics! Thanks to the mashing technique I could get to the end! (although my fingers were getting exhausted...)
Playing regularly I got four button presses in before getting hopelessly lost. Maybe that's why I don't usually play rhythm games :)
As atmospheric as we've gotten used to from you! I didn't really believe you when you said I wouldn't need to restart any levels, and indeed I had to restart all of them several times :) But I got through to the end!
Very well done! The Music, artstyle, and gameplay work together perfectly!
It took me way too long to figure out that a pentagram has its own order and is not a circle! I guess I should have had coffee *before* trying this :)
A nice puzzle! The one thing I kept bumping into is that I kept pressing escape to get back to the map screen, and that's not how it works...
A nice little game! It works well, looks good, and sounds good. One thing I didn't find is if you can get out of the buying screen without buying anything, I wasted some resources that way.
A very nice puzzle game, I got to the end without too much difficulty (apart from the lights out level, I'm not sure I'm a fan of that).
I'm not sure about your earlier comment about not wanting to make the colour distinction too obvious. Why not? I feel that in this sort of game the challenge is to find a solution, not to figure out the question.
A bit too fiddly for me, so I didn't get very far. Still a nice idea though!
One general thing, "game.zip" isn't a very good name, people are downloading a lot of games and that sort of name doesn't help with keeping track of what is what!
(oh, and if you didn't intend to distribute the source, you shouldn't have included the .git directory in the zip file!)
A very nice puzzle game! Some thinking required, but not too hard and a good difficulty progression which is unusual in the rush of a jam game! My only issue is that I kept trying to use WASD from the perspective of the character.
An awesome idea! Sometimes movement and controls felt a bit clunky, but that's to be expected in a jam game. Overall it works well and it's a lot of fun. This really felt like exploring an abandoned industrial building.
Nice game for a first project in a new environment! I didn't manage to get very far, but it felt like that was due to me being bad at platformers (I just can't do them, and as soon as people mention "wall jump" or "double jump" my brain freezes for a second) rather than due to the game. I still enjoyed trying!
I got to 2652 once I got the idea :)
It's nice to play something different! Looks good and is fun to play. Also happy birthday!
Nice game! I managed to get in in only my second attempt :) (I did try the other options afterwards though!)
I managed to get to level 4. I really couldn't figure out how to control jumps consistently... Nice idea though, and for people who are good at this sort of thing probably well executed :)
One minor bug (which did get a bit annoying as I triggered it a lot), reset doesn't reset direction, and sometimes a bit of velocity survives too.
2080, but I know I can do better!
Fun game! The mechanics are easy to understand, and I like the way it looks. Nice work!
Nice game! Difficulty scaling is too slow though, I played for more than ten minutes and then kind of got bored because loading was still very slow.

I started by spamming and not understanding the game at all, but then I realised there's no rush at all (until the end) and you can go for efficiency. Very nice game!
I took me a few tries to get the hang of it, but when I did it was fun. I don't know if I'm going to be playing this for hours, but it's definitely enjoyable for a bit :)
Nice idea, and I'm sure it's lots of fun for some people! A bit too frantic for me, and near the end of day two it was so fast that I kind of stopped caring, which isn't really what you want. I know that's just me though :)
An excellent game! I only got to 54 today in a bunch of attempts, but I'll try again when I'm feeling fresher!
The seagulls look great, and the music creates exactly the right mood. Well done!
1079 steps. It took me a while to get the hang of it and to realise that there was a second L-shaped block :)
Nicely done! I enjoyed how everything worked together, graphics, audio and mechanics!
Maybe the difficulty increase was a bit too sharp near the end, but that's what you get in compo! I managed to get all levels done after some trial and error, an excellent puzzle game!
A true commanderstitch classic! The usual swarm of things to kill, with the addition of *excellent* integration of shooting with the music! Very impressive!
Found my way to the broken elevator with $1, I'm rich! :)
Very neat idea! It all works pretty well, Welcome to Ludum Dare!
Nice idea! A fun little game to spend some time with! I liked everything about it, except maybe some of the sheep getting stuck for a short time every now and then.
I spent more time playing this than I expected! I haven't managed to get to the end yet (I plan to come back to it), but so far enhance and bitrot (and improved versions) look like they're an excellent combo :) Everything works well together, congratulations on an excellent game!
Excellent work! Asteroids with building your own ship is an excellent idea!
The art style works well, the sound effects are effective, and the gameplay works!
A very fun little game. It's probably not too replayable right now, but with some work it could get there!
Yes, different backgrounds in the dungeon and things like that would be good, but I didn't really miss them. Sound and graphics are perfectly nice!
This is a brilliant game, one of the best I've played in Ludum Dare (not just LD54!) It feels extremely finished and works well. I only wish I was good at it :)
A very nice compo game!
Audio is nice, the graphics are good at conveying the right mood, and the gameplay works and has an interesting mechanic with the three bars, what more can one want? :) (oh yes, the answer to that is maybe a different menu background, I agree with the people who mentioned that!)
I'd say this is an excellent first game for LD, welcome!
Very impressive! I've never been good at RTSes so I kept losing, but I still had fun doing it :)
This looks and sounds very nice! I'm not sure if there's much tactics to it, it felt like just mashing buttons did the trick. Not that there's anything wrong with that, it allowed me to win :)
Very nicely done! I managed to save the universe!
A very nice idea! Not the hardest of games after you understand the mechanics, but who wants hard games anyway? :)
Another excellent game! Perfect to spend a bit of time with!
This feels very polished! Well done!
Not bad! I usually don't get very far though :) I like the sound effects, and I do like the minimalist art.
I enjoyed this, after I switched browsers (for some reason in firefox I get a purple triangle in the middle of the screen covering up things). My favourite is Chapter 2, even though after a decent number of attempts I still can't get more than five successful jumps in a row :)
This is an excellent typing game. The music is perfect, and the art is great. The only issue I had is that the words are capitalised, but the game doesn't recognise capitals. I needed a few tries before I figured that one out!
This was quite enjoyable for a few minutes once I figured it all out. Like some other people I managed to not see the arrows at first, and I only figured out how to reply to emails on my second go. The art style is nice!
Nice game! The audio is excellent and sets the mood perfectly. I did have to use the walkthrough, but even with that I got stuck on the fifth floor, at first I just wasn't fast enough and then for some reason the game always seemed to want to push me to the left as if I was holding that button down.
This is an excellent compo game! A menu, sound settings, and everything! I got to above 100 science. The sound effects work well, the music is decent, the graphics look good, and it's fun to play. Ticks all the boxes :)
This was fun! The music is nice, and the art is decent enough. I'm not sure you should be allowed to cut corners this easily though :)
I tried a few times, my longest run was 31 turns. A nice little game!
At one point I had a mage card that I couldn't deploy, first when there were five cards on the back row (I assume the row was full, so not being able to deploy was probably expected), but then I I also couldn't deploy that card the turn after when only two of those five were left. I could deploy the next turn though. It also would be nice if you could "clear" an attack. If the enemy has no cards showing and you click one of your attackers, the red "pick a target" line appears but you can't get rid of it.
Quite a nice idea! This was a lot of fun, when it worked. Unfortunately I had the vanishing dishes issue quite often. That however did give me an opportunity to appreciate the way the counters get dirty and the increasing number of flies!
This has potential :)
I had to try a few times to properly understand what was going on, but then, on my best run, I got 4500 points :) After looking through the other comments I'm quite e proud of that! A very nice game!
A very solid entry! I tried a few times, the tracks from previous attempts are a very nice touch. The turning circle makes planning your route a bit more challenging, it's not just click-and-it-will-go-there. Well done!
Looking forward to the sequel! If the theme ever ends up being "Inside the enemy", you know what to do :)
As usual, very accessible for platformer novices like me, with enough checkpoints to keep frustration well away. I need a while to get through, and I only fully realised how to double jump properly fairly late, but I got to the end!
As usual I'm not up to this :) A very frantic typical @commanderstitch game! I'd say it fits the theme very well, but then given I never get to the end of any of your games, I'd argue that all of them would fit this theme :)
I had the usual slow start issue that other people have mentioned, and I could only get it to run with openjdk-8, 11 and 17 failed with some JNI issues (this is on linux x64). Not an issue for me, I had all of those installed anyway.
Aaaaaaa! Need to click more!
Nice little game, it fits the theme perfectly and works well. Ideal for those times when you have a few minutes and you need to get your brain ready for something.
The worst bug of them all is of course forgetSnacks(k9).
It's a very nice little game. There are a few issues, like the progress bar on the phone sometimes being off-screen (that thew me for a bit), but overall it works well. Some of those bits of code are great!
A very nice game! Excellent music choice, and excellent graphics and sound effects. I spent a while playing it.
The one niggle I have is that you can mouse over the cards to see what they do at *most* times, but not when you have to pick a card, i.e. when you need it most. Of course after a while you know :)
A really nice concept! I enjoyed playing this, although I didn't manage to get past those pesky submarines :)
Very well done! The story works, and is nicely illustrated, with fitting music.
One annoying thing was the speed of text advancing, which was too slow for me. Having some way to control that (or just compete the paragraph when clicking or pressing space) would have improved the experience a lot for me.
Works pretty well! I managed better than I expected with my horrible gameplay abilities :) Graphics, sound effects and music are all pretty good.
I survived! :) Nice idea, and nice graphics and sound. At one point I thought it was starting to go too fast, but then things turned around and I slowed down enough. I don't know if I'd play this for hours, but it's definitely fun for a bit.
Looks very nice, and the sounds are good as far as I got, but I didn't get very far. My reflexes are not anywhere near good enough to control this lander
Well done! Nice graphics, smooth gameplay, and a story. What more can one want? :)
Nice game! I can't say I've mastered it yet, but I'll get there :)
Graphics and sound are excellent! I do like the controls, but I'm bad at them, so I didn't get very far :) Well done!
An excellent interpretation of the theme! It took me a while to figure out how everything worked (in hindsight that's my fault for not reading the instructions properly), but it was fun to play after that. I managed to get to level 7. Nice voice work :)
Nice game! Everything that needs to be there is there. The submarine and mines look good, and the sounds are decent. Not a bad way to waste some time!
The one thing I'd say could be improved is probably the background. The water looks a bit sky-like, so a darker shade could be better. Also maybe some "scenery" (algae on the rocks, ...) to make the downward motion more obvious?
Wow! Very intense, and excellent use of silhouette and sounds to build tension. It was tricky, but thanks to the checkpoints I did get through it!
I like this a lot, for the bit I got through. I think I figured out the bone double-jump, but I just can't do it... Very nice theme though!
Very nice! The music works very well, and the graphics are great. I enjoyed the puzzles, although I did make the mistake of watching it being played first, so I did know the solutions.
I did notice a few typos here and there. I know how running out of time for a final proof-reading pass goes :)
Nice idea! I did have fun with this for a while. I like the concept, graphics and sound.
I did encounter a few bugs: * the banana grabber seems to check for bananas in reach *after* collecting bananas, so paying for a longer arm after it has run out of bananas in reach doesn't restart it * There seem to be a few race conditions with the truck. At one point I wasn't paid for a load of oil, and at another loading the truck with more oil (it was nearly full already) seems to have subtracted a full load from the refinery, making the stock there negative.
Very nice game! I enjoyed it throughout. The graphics are nice and balanced, the sound and music are fitting, and the UI works well. I played on linux (1920x1080 full-screen) and didn't have any of the issues the itch.io page mentions as possible.
Some possible improvements if you want to do further work on this could be auto-scrolling to the new sprout when using next/previous buttons ,combined with maybe some adjustments for common screen sizes (it *nearly* fit for me on 1920x1080, one or two fewer rows or slightly smaller graphics and scrolling wouldn't have been needed at all); having a way to skip sprouts with no AP on next/previous; graying out or hiding the upgrade button when the sprout is fully upgraded; and having escape close the upgrade dialog. All of those are fixes for minor things that are entirely expected in a jam game, nothing major at all.
A perfect background game :) I managed to make my way to the end, although once I managed to get through the first dungeon everything else was pretty easy. Well done! If there's one thing I'd suggest (apart from balance) it would be item sorting to make item management a bit less clunky
The usual commanderstitch chaos, with my usual inability to get very far :) Interesting shotgun!
Cute graphics :) I'll send those three souls over as soon as I've collected them from people who owe me theirs!
Excellent work! My best score is 254, which to be honest was a lucky outlier :)
Bonus points for the biographies of all the characters in the intro!
Interesting concept! The music makes this quite intense! I tried Europe first, which I found hard because while I know where everything is, I wasn't ever sure where e.g. the difference between south and southwest would be.
The WebGL version works for me in firefox, by the way.
Nice game. I like the visual effects and the general idea. I didn't get through the last level, in part because I really didn't want to spend two minutes every time I died going through all the earlier levels again just to die again by getting timing wrong...
An excellent game! It took me a few tries to get the hang of it, but then it's a lot of fun. The music and graphics are very nice. The one thing I'd have liked is better end detection, as in the game knowing I was out of valid moves, getting a long piece when I built up to the bottom of the screen and I'm out of bombs does feel a bit tedious. Not a problem for a jam release of course
A very nice game. This feels properly finished. The music is well-chosen, and the graphics look nice. One day I'll be good at this :)
Well done! I didn't manage to complete it all, but I like the bits I saw. The ticking clock sound is very effective, I like the graphics, and the storytelling is very nice.
An experience, exactly as described :) The speeding up and slowing down effects are well done!
Of course after staring at it for a while one starts noticing little missing details like the tonearm not moving up and down with the warps of the record, and not moving towards the middle. I guess it's not a *real* turntable after all :)
A very nice concept! You could build a great puzzle game with this idea, you just need a bit more meaningful choice every now and then.
By the way, this didn't work at all in firefox for me (just a white screen), so I had to break out my emergency chromium install for it.
Nice tune :) Not sure if this counts as a game, but I don't regret trying it :) I would have liked being able to pick a green block a bit earlier before they all settled down, but that's not a big issue, really
Nice graphics! The music sounds appropriate, the theme is spot on... Wait, the theme wasn't halloween? :) For me, the controls were a little too sensitive, but presumably witches brooms aren't easy to control in real life either, so that might be accurate.
An excellent game. The music is nice, the graphics are fitting, and I likethe levels, even though I didn't manage to finish them all
Poor hamsters! Graphics are well done, a decent game.
I managed to do it all! :) Not bad!
"Interesting" premise :) I managed to get through it all (wiping out 57% of the dinosaurs), which is unusual for me in this sort of game!
Nice music and graphics, and overall a very compelling game.
Nice game! The intro was a good idea, although I'm not sure I'd have gone with a typewriter style :) I would have preferred seeing the entire puzzle at once. Having to remember the other area while thinking makes the game harder in a way that I think doesn't necessarily make it better. Sorry for nitpicking, I liked it overall :)
A clever idea, well executed. I would have liked more levels, but that's what you get with jam games... :)
Great shader! :)
Nice idea for a game, looks like you ran out of time before you got to the actual mechanics. The music is nice, the graphics are decent, the water current is, well, not really there... Still, you participated, which does count!
Great fun! If only the "other" drivers on the track weren't driving like idiots :)
The controls respond in just the right way, the music kept me motivated, and the graphics are decent. This is a good game, well done!
A good puzzle game. It would be nice to have more levels, but that's the fate of all puzzle games in ludum dare, really.
If you would decide to continue working on this, I'd say the main things that are needed are of course more levels, and maybe better editing of the move sequence. Maybe allow quick entering the moves using the arrow keys, and keep the previous sequence when restarting.
Wow! Well done!
The sound makes this feel very immersive, and controls and physics feel just right. The fairly minimalist graphics fit the game well.
The mechanic of getting more score when you're hurt means it's hard to get a high score, but easy to just play, which makes the game playable for everyone.
Very nice! I like squirrels too :)
The minimalist graphics are excellent, and I like the music. The mechanics are introduced in a nice progressive way, which is great! The levels were all fairly easy, just a matter of exploring. Maybe some more tricky puzzles would be nice.
A nice idea, but gameplay for me consisted just of clicking fast enough without doing anything else. Graphics and sound are good though.
Well done! I'll need another few attempts to actually properly understand the movement, but that's really what the game is about, I think :) Graphics and audio work well
Not bad at all! Some nice twists with the changing rooms.
I'm not sure the black rooms work well as they are. I see what you want to do, but some indication of what's going on might be good. Maybe show the player position, or have some visual effect at the spots where you hit something, or something else that makes it clear that this isn't a loading screen.
The other nitpick is about starting the game: the entire game is controlled with the keyboard, but you have to click a button to start. I'd just allow any key to start, or maybe just space.
A very nice concept! My best time is 495.7 :) This could be a very good casual game.
What's missing is really just polish. The "level complete" text is a bit in the way on the next level, there could be an indication which level you're on, ... Sound would be nice, but I'm not one to talk as I also don't have sound in my game :) I noticed that you didn't opt out of the audio category though, is that an oversight?
Congratulations on finishing your first compo!
This is a nice idea that could be expanded to a great little game :)
Another commanderstitch game! Tradition says that every LD I have to try these and utterly fail at them :)
The start looks nice, and the ticking clock works great, but I just couldn't figure it out :( Looking forward to see a playthrough by someone more competent later!
A nice game! It could of course use more story, but what there is is good.
The controls were a bit annoying. I'd say accept space and enter for both interacting and dismissing the dialog, and maybe also accept arrow keys for moving?
Nice game! Graphics and sound work well, the puzzles aren't impossible, and I managed to survive, what more can anyone wish for? :)
If I'm allowed some minor nitpicks, when you have an item selected that you *can* actually use on something, you still get the 🚫 sign which is a bit confusing, and maybe the "speed lines" are a bit too flickery. Nothing important though.
!> I want to know where I can buy rope that strong though! ;)
Another good game! I like the sound and graphics, with fitting music. The power generating mechanics aren't bad, but they get a bit tedious after a while without adding much. At first something felt odd about jumping (maybe the animation is too sudden?), but I got used to oit quite quickly and managed to find my way to the end. Thanks for the checkpoints!
Nicely done! The graphics are nice, the music is fitting, the pumpkins are sufficiently self-aware. I did get out, but I wrote my moves down :)
The music following the seasons is brilliant! I'm not really in the target age bracket anymore these days, so gameplay isn't ideal for me, but I suspect it works well for the intended audience.
Maybe as you and other people mentioned in earlier comments there could be more gameplay elements, but the game feels finished, which is an achievement in ludum dare :)
I got out!
Very nicely done. The art looks great, the music is exactly right, and the story works, although we never really find out what's going on (but getting out alive should be enough for anyone!)
One thing that could be better is handling of collisions. I kept getting stuck against things, and this made me think a room couldn't be explored while it could several times.
The graphics and audio are great, and it fits the theme really well. I just couldn't get used to the physics though, and a lot of the time when you miss a jump it's a fairly long walk back to have another go, so I didn't manage to get very far. Not all your fault though, I'm never good at platformers anyway!
Well done! Those last few levels did need some thinking and more than one attempt to get right! I was afraid that the timing would make it impossible, but it didn't, after a while moving at the right moment mostly came natural and it was really just a matter of figuring out what exactly to do. The sound is simple but very effective, it gives a sense of urgency.
Excellent work! This feels very finished. You managed to find a good fit fort the theme. The graphics and sound effects are great, and the music is an excellent choice. Understanding the movement takes a bit of practice, but once you get used to it it makes perfect sense. Well done!
Not bad, but it did get a bit tedious after a while. Especially having to slowly aim again every time when shooting gets old fast. Graphics and audio are good. I would have appreciated the game not letting me shoot myself. Regarding the theme, I'm not convinced "keep it alive" and "stay alive" are interchangeable
@eldar there is music and audio in the game, at least in the web version I played today. I see no mention of post-LD changes so I assume that's still the same.
Very well done! Music is excellent, graphics and sound effects are very nice, and the level design is clever. There also seem to be a lot more levels than in many LD games. It was a bit difficult for me, jumps are a bit tricky, so I didn't manage to get to the end, but I did get five or six levels in
I am clearly not meant to keep a pet :) The graphics may not be the very best around, but they're consistent and I like them. The sound and music are pretty nice too. Well done all round!
Nicely done! I'm so happy I'm too old to be in the target audience, I make many more mistakes by overshooting the square I want or running into one of the bad guys than by not getting my sums right :)
Nicely done! The graphics look great, the music fits, and the gameplay works, so that's all the basics covered :) More levels would be good, or just more waves of nonsense, but game jams are short...
Not bad! Sound didn't work for me on firefox on linux, but it did work on the chromium that I have installed as a fallback. I initially thought it felt as bit sluggish, but I think I agree that making turning faster might change the game too much. There could be some more polish, but 48 hours isn't a lot, so well done!
Looks nice, but like some others I had to look at the video to see the full game. For me the "cover" of the mushroom didn't actually show, and it didn't accept trees, also, there were some big slowdowns whenever "it" said something. Could be bugs in the linux build I guess...
Very nice! Relaxing music, nice graphics, and dead trees :) I suspect other people can keep the tree alive, I haven't managed it for very long yet :)
Graphics and audio are really nice, even though I didn't play any of the systems or games you were referring to :)
I like the graphics and music, although the music does get repetitive after a while. It's a pity much of the actual gameplay is still missing. Also, it doesn't work for me on firefox. Luckily I have some other browsers installed for cases like this.
A very nice concept. Sounds and graphics are excellent! My plants keep dying though, for me it's a bit too hard.
Nice concept! I didn't get very far, I keep getting lost and then suffocating :) The sound is nice, and I like the machine animation a lot! I'd have a much easier time if the dome was a bit smaller though.
Very nicely done! I enjoyed the constant chatting of the fish. I really didn't expect a puzzle game to suddenly appear, but it was a nice surprise, I like puzzle games :)
I enjoyed this one. At the end it got too fast for me though, my mouse coordination isn't as good as I'd like! I like the music and audio, and the minimalist graphics are perfect for this sort of game. Personally I'd like a bit more focus on thinking and less on speed, but that's a matter of what you want the game to be, not of what's "best".
Very nice! I like the general colour scheme, the music, the calm but urgent voice...
Nice idea! A pretty relaxing game (unless you make the mistake of wanting a higher score...) helped by a fitting music choice. The graphics (and esbottles look just right for this.
I did get the impression that sometimes those blenders got stuck when they were full (web build in firefox).
It might be a good idea to have an option to not end after a set time.
Nod bad! You found a good stash of long words there :) I played 1.1, where the enter key is ignored, which helps. A possible improvement would be to have enter clear what you typed, so if you have a typo or if the word you were typing hit IT and is gone, you can get rid of it quickly. One minor issue: the textbox where you type didn't have the focus when I started. I play on linux using wine, so who knows, maybe that doesn't happen under windows?
Very nice overall. I struggled a bit until I understood that I have one stable line at a time (I first thought they all went away, which made it very nerve-wracking and too fast), but after that it was great. The sound and graphics woork very well, I like the switching between colourful while playing and black between levels a lot.
A really nice game! Nice graphics and music, a well-working concept, and a good fit for the theme If there's one thing that would mnake it even better for me, it would be arrow key support. My fingers *still* haven't learnt to handle WASD easily...
Nice! I found three ways to end the game, so I claim my bonus point :)
An excellent idea. I'm a bit confused by the colour scoring though, sometimes I got a worse score with colours that to my eyes were closer.
The graphics work very well with the theme, and the music is nice. For me though, I couldn't get very far, my timing just isn't good enough. As a very specific criticism though, during the "rolling ball" phase, especially on slopes, the ball has a tiny bounce that makes jumps just not work half the time.
Very nicely done. Graphics and music are effective. The obvious missing thing is simply "more" I think.
I enjoyed this one very much! The graphics are nice, and the music is nice, but the way they interplay is really great.
I like that there's not really a "score", so there's no stress about doing things wrong, but on the other hand that probably means there's less replay value (which doesn't matter at all for LD, of course).
One thing I'd have liked to have is a way to zoom in or out, but missing that isn't too bad because the island never gets too big anyway.
Well done!
Nicely done, but the game overshoots the premise a bit, with everything flooding.
Nicely done! I liked how many branches you managed to think of.
If there's any criticism, I'd say the font effects were a bit much some of the time, as they made the text quite hard to read at times. They do add flavour, so I wouldn't get rid of them, but they could use some balance.
Not bad, although the fighting was a bit repetitive.
A great idea. I did have some problems with getting two things close enough to combine, but maybe that's just me.
An enjoyable bit of storytelling disguised as a puzzle. I enjoyed it!
An excellent game to remind me how bad I am at these things :)
A very original idea! I wasn't very good at it (I'm not very good at games in general), but it was fun. I wouldn't have minded a bigger play area and fullscreen support.
I must admit that I had no idea what I was doing, but I managed just under 10000 points. I think you have an off-by-one error in the "cards in the deck" counter, it ended at 1.
Overall, very well done for an "Oh no, this isn't working, let's restart!" game!
This was great for the first two phases, but like other people I got slideshow mode during the Objects phase. Sound and graphics work well together to set the mood!
I was disappointed when it ended, but maybe it's all for the best, I do have things to do and I could have spent all night looking and listening to this!
A very nice game. I like the music, and graphics.
One minor thing I'd have liked to see is having the various types of tree you can or can't currently plant be highlighted.
Very nice idea, but it's a bit confusing. Maybe animations would help a bit?
Nice basics, but there's a lot missing, mainly: * no information about what's still missing for a building * you can't end a path somewhere other than a flag. That's really annoying * How do you produce swords?
Very nice! Like some other people I also missed the detach thing at first (it's clearly mentioned, so this is entirely on me!) and if you don't detach weird things happen if the blob gets too big, but that's not a big issue as that's not what you're supposed to do anyway.
One thing I would definitely have liked is support for arrow keys and not just wasd, I still can't get used to those...
Nice! I played on linux, and build works fine for me. My main issue was that I didn't figure out you could re-roll a word (or parts of it), I had to read comments here to find that out, and that's kind of essential. Maybe mention it in the description?
I suspect there's not much replay value in this, but for an LD game that doesn't matter.
One issue though: with scrollwheels there are two possible directions for zooming in, and I disagree with you about which is the correct one :)
A nice game overall. I did have some of the same issues as @secretpocketcat though, in this kind of game I like to stop and think, but then I'm dead :) That's mostly me though, if you don't use a mechanic just because it might not suit some players, you'd end with nothing instead of just starting with nothing.
I enjoyed this quite a bit! For long-term play I'd want some sort of auto-selling mechanic, but for something with the scope of an LD game that's really not needed.
Balance wise I think it's a bit too dependent on your start. If it starts going well early on, you've won, and if not, there doesn't seem to be much you can do about it
Nice take on the theme. I don't like the implication that studying makes one lose friends though :)
A very nice idea! I played the web version (the only windows I have are for letting light into my house) so issues I have may well be linked to that, but I got the impression that things can go wrong when I do something unexpected but that's not too terrible. Overall, well done!
Very nice game. Looks great, and the concept fits the theme very well.
A great looking and sounding game as usual! I'm having a hard time attacking though, not sure if it's me or the controls.
Perfect! I wish it was longer, but that's about it. I like the graphics, and as for the music, well, I got stuck on the intro screen because I wanted to listen first, and pressing space would have broken the spell :)
A fun game for a few minutes, which really is what it's all about! Could be more polished, but if you had to start by integrating sdl and rust (even if you could start early on that) I'm not surprised polish wasn't a priority!
Just a few notes though, you should really mention the controls here in the description, and the rules specify you have to provide the source. I found the source next to the dev report, so it's all there, but I suspect a direct link would be better.
A very nice game. It took me a while to figure it out, but figuring it out was fun, so that's fine :) Graphics and sound are very well done.
Nice game! I didn't manage to beat the boss (as expected, that's just me). I like the character progression. One minor issue is that the level screen says "press (x) to restart" where I'd have expected "continue", but I don't know if that's an engine limitation.
A very nice take on the theme!
A nice take on an old genre
Nice game to spend a few minutes with
Not a bad little puzzle game!
Nice idea, I like what's there.
A very nice puzzle game. My only complaint is that from certain angles (especially when looking in the direction of the sun) things can be a bit hard to see, but apart from that it's a good way to spend some time.
Nice work!
Not bad!
A *very* nice game. Music, graphics, and story work well together to set the mood.
For those wondering about non-windows: it worked perfectly with wine for me.
Nice game to spend some time with. I like the graphics!
This looks and sounds really nice, and I like your interpretation of the theme.
Up to your usual standards, and still unbeatable for someone like me :) Nice graphics and audio A very nice way to spend fifteen minutes or so not getting anywhere and dying a lot!
I liked the graphics and audio, they work pretty well. Nice take on the theme
A very nice puzzle, nicely finished in every way. Well done as usual!
Man, I'm bad at this sort of game! It looks and sounds great, and playing it for a bit was a lot of fun, but I didn't get very far at all. The backstory is very nice, and ties it in really well with the theme!
Pretty enjoyable overall. I wouldn't have minded a quicker way to enter commands, and think the trapdoor mechanic is a bit too harsh. I understand you don't show a preview of where you'll go, but having to rotate the view all the time to check for trapdoors while trying to remember your current position made that bit just a bit annoying.
I like the idea, and I think it's reasonably well executed. I agree with those who say that maybe there's too much waiting, and maybe time between actions could be shortened in exchange for a higher credit goal.
I needed to install a few more things: first pip3 install wheel, and then after everything was there still needed libglfw3.
A very original idea, and well-executed! I just wish I didn't get stuck all the time :)
A very nice idea! I couldn't get to the end because I'm rubbish at anything involving real-time reflexes, but I did enjoy the bits I saw quite a bit.
Works well, and I had fun playing it.
I like the idea. Execution could be better, but if it's your first game jam it's really easy to mess up time management and end up with some of your "features".
Nice idea, but there are a few things that bothered me: first, the game refers to A and B buttons, while all descriptions mention Cancel and Select. Also, I think the intro is a bit long.
The WebGL version is broken for me as well (same symptoms as @matank)
I like the interpretation of the theme, but like many others I got a bit stuck trying to find useful combinations
Nice game, but there are a few annoyances. Every now and then a character gets stuck, and getting killed by the spikes when jumping over them during the upwards bit feels a bit unfair
This looks like it could be good, but I can't figure out what to do
I like the graphics, but the controls make it almost unplayable for me. I don't think a puzzle game should require this mouse handling speed.
It took me a while to figure out how it worked, but once I got the hang of it I did enjoy it!
This is *much* too fast to be playable for me
I must say I got a bit bored with this fairly quickly. It ends up just being going back and forth and pressing space at the right time. It looks decent and it works well, but I feel something is missing
Controls are a bit weird. Half the time I clicked, nothing happened even though I was definitely aiming properly. Also, especially with the mouse inertia (which is a cool effect), it's way too easy to suddenly click next to the window and lose focus. Apart from those, it works well and is fun for a few minutes.
Very well done! The mood really works (and I have to go do something else right now to cheer me up!)
I can't quite figure out the right balance, so I keep losing very quickly. Nice art, and a good fit for the theme.
Very nice interpretation of the theme! Graphics and sound effects are nice, the music does get a bit repetitive after a while. I didn't get to the end (I never play platform games so I'm really bad at them) but the level design seemed solid
A very solid game overall! I liked how dying wasn't too terrible (I died a lot!), which gave it enough of a puzzle so I didn't get frustrated.
Nice game with fitting graphics and sound. I wish I was better at playing these things!
Of course there's a unicorn and coffee! I like the mood.
Nice game! I also missed shift at first, and I think maybe having rotation speed accelerate would work better. The other issue I had was that sometimes things *just* touch but no red pixels appear, and for some objects the outline doesn't seem to exactly match the collision area. Apart from those, I did enjoy playing through to the end. I only had to get rid of the wheelbarrow!
A nice little game. It does feel a bit unfinished though.
I needed to do a few fixes before I got this to run properly: first, the code refers to res/journeyAssistant.png, while the file in the 7zip archive contains res/journeyassistant.png. Renaming that got the game to run properly (I got symptoms similar to what @deaymon and @eptwalabha describe), but I needed to change the font to one that's actually on my system to get the display not to be messy. I used Carlito, which is size-compatible with Calibri. Portability is a pain, especially if you're not used to it...
I like the game. Maybe it's a bit slow, but as you say that makes it a nice background game. The people walking around and the traffic on the road keep it lively. The graphics aren't the greatest (says the guy who made a text-only game) but they're definitely good enough, and almost certainly better than what I would achieve. Maybe you could have people walk at slightly different speeds to make things a bit less regular? One definite improvement I think would be some sort of indication of which rooms someone is working in. Right now it can be a bit tricky to see if the dirt or breakdown situation is under control.
(Just as a data point, I also consider rar to be a very obscure format, and I'm surprised every time I see it. zip is way more common, although 7zip is catching up. In this particular case though, ideally you'd have all the resources in the .jar file so you wouldn't need any of them)
There are a lot of inventory tetris games, but this one felt different. Nice game!
Ah, these balloons are always out of space! I found horizontal control a bit too difficult, but maybe that's just me (I'm one of those people who likes turn-based games...)
Nice game. The trailers are tricky, but I don't think that's bad.
Don't forget to rate other games!
I did need the hints, but it was fun. I agree that introductory levels would be good.
Some information about what various items do would be very useful. Every now and then I couldn't drag an item and had to click around a bit before it would work again.
Man, I'm bad at this! Great concept, and it works very well. It wasn't clear to me right away that only the top sides can match, maybe they can be greyed out a bit or something like that? For me, the game accelerated too fast, I couldn't do really do anything way before the end of the game. Control-wise, maybe the right mouse button could also switch between rolling and sliding?
Quite an enjoyable game! One bug I had was that in full-screen I don't have a mouse cursor, and if the directly non-diagonal squares are gone you can't move diagonally using the cursor keys, so you're stuck (until you exit full-screen mode of course).
A decent game. I never really understood what I was doing, but I got through anyway. The intro and cutscenes make it feel complete.
Nice little game to spend some time in. I think some of the controls could be better, like let me move in the general direction of where I clicked if I didn't click on an adjacent tile, or picking something up if I click on it without having to change modes (in general I don't think you need the modes at all).
I'm not very good at this (Where are my turns? :), but it was fun to play
I got a bit lost in this one. I liked the audio, but the controls were tricky (I never managed to select a crew member on the first attempt)
Nice concept. I agree with the others that being able to move back would be very helpful.
Ah, the proper hopeless feeling of old moonlander games! Nice interpretation of the theme
Nice and simple game. Ideally the controls would be listed somewhere though
I enjoyed this one very much. A stronger AI would be nice, but it's 48 hours... The shrinking world sometimes allowed some great tactics, although that needed some help from the terrain generator.
Not a bad effort. A bit faster paced than what I usually enjoy playing, but I still had fun.
I'd like it better if dropping a car had a bit more tolerance to it, i.e. they'd snap into place. Also some arriving and leaving animations would do a lot. Currently when you drop a car on the exit, the way it vanishes is a bit distracting for me.
A very nice game. I totally forgot about scrolling the very first time, but then I got the hang of it and saved five billion people. Pity about the others!
Scrolling could be a bit faster
Great game. Not my usual genre so I'm bad at it, but I did have fun playing it.
A bit too hard for me, I got stuck on the second level. As soon as she screen glitches start it's game over for me. Still a nice idea, and what I saw works well.
Not a bad game. Making the window smaller is a nice idea at first sight, but it doesn't work well at all with some window managers. On my laptop (which runs i3) the end result is a stretched window that while it does resize is trivial to get back to its original size. I'd say black borders would work better.
An interesting variation on an old theme, but it feels unfinished
Nice game. The theme link was subtle but there in the last few levels (but then the first levels were mostly there to introduce mechanics). I'd have appreciated an undo button.
The rules say "Porting (especially to Web or Windows) can happen after the initial 48 hours", so no rationale is even needed for that WebGL build!
This felt a bit aimless, which isn't surprising given that it's unfinished. Barnaby could swim in this version, but the player could pretend that he can't. There was a distinct lack of challenge, which maybe could have been quickly partly resolved by a simple timer?
Fun to play for a bit. I liked the physics. I agree with @cobear25's comments about the music though.
I liked this one. Separating the pieces before starting isn't perfect, especially having to click twice if the split isn't straight, but apart from that I enjoyed playing it. Thanks for providing a linux build!

Screenshot from 2025-10-24 19-26-20.png
Quite happy with this!
An excellent experience. I was very much immersed in this while playing, and while early on I thought it might go on forever, it started getting harder without any noticeable cut-off point. Well done!
Rastic Rush by commanderstitch 2025-10-11T18:03:26Z ♥ 1
I finished a commanderstitch game! :)
A lot of fun, and thanks to the persistent collection, much more forgiving than some of your past games. Excellent work!
Bug Bequest by Bea 2025-10-11T17:06:28Z ♥ 0
Maybe more of an interactive experience than a game? Quite fun though
For me (firefox on linux, maybe important) the experience was slightly marred by the mouse pointer being in unpredictable places, leading at one point to totally losing game focus and being unable to get it back so I had to restart.
Overall I did enjoy it!
Blood and Bounty by Torami 2025-10-11T16:44:07Z ♥ 2
Graphics, sound, and music are quite nice (although I would have appreciated volume settings after the game starts)
Enemy AI, well, ... Is it just random? I only had them start shooting me once there were about fifteen of them on the map. Some more purposeful enemies would definitely improve the game a lot!
I did like the map generation though.
Out Of Energy by Custodi 2025-10-11T15:56:36Z ♥ 1
I got to stage 3. Quite a decent game! The music and sound worked well with the graphics, and the gameplay was quite intuitive.
Clockwork Collector by Jiri Hysek 2025-10-11T15:36:24Z ♥ 1
This was excellent!
A good balance of easy tutorial puzzles to more and more challenging later ones. And of course as usual perfect graphics and audio to set the mood!
The only minor downside I think was that some of the controls felt a bit off. I often wanted to drag the handles in circles, but it doesn't feel like that was the way they were designed.
Unholy Black Hole by bereg 2025-10-11T15:24:24Z ♥ 0
This was tricky! It took me about five tries to get them all, so well balanced.
Quite an interesting concept, and well executed. Graphics and sound are decent, but it's mainly the game concept itself that shines here.
One thing that definitely stood out was that my GPU fan didn't stop for a second while playing this, I'm assuming no vsync at least on my linux/X11 system. I have no idea if that's something you can easily force from the game side though.
Grave Situation by BangKerpow 2025-10-11T14:39:07Z ♥ 1
My strategy: block gap with fences, then build towers.
Quite a lot of fun, but maybe a bit unbalanced on the easy side of things? It feels like once you figure out the three gaps that need to be blocked, you can't really lose.
Impressive graphics and audio for compo, and other than the balance, the gameplay works quite well!
For QoL I think I'd have appreciated a preview for the fences, I can't for the life of me remember which of the buttons does which direction...
Overall, well done!
