LD48 — Deeper and deeper (24)

Break your fall by Last Angle 2021-04-30T19:33:14Z ♥ 1

Congrats on your first LD :D This was good simple fun. Definitely appreciated the arrows but maybe a wee bit shorter fall and a little less clouds would even out the experience. As it was now I hardly got any speed until I got close to the end and accidentally grabbed a large weight, but when that speed picked up I started getting nervous ^^ Would definitely have liked a bit more of that :)

Good work! ^^

Street Spark Racing by BytingGames 2021-04-29T17:25:24Z ♥ 1

Definitely a creative way to interpret the theme ^^ Can't say that I expected to kick a car to the finish line when the lights turned green :D That dialogue was great!

Well done! ^_^

Dig the Onion by Vivien Fargette 2021-04-29T17:06:31Z ♥ 3

Really cute game ^^ Did sort of feel bad for the onion but sometimes sacrifices have to be made ;D I'm very impressed with the creativity to turn a common cooking action into a card game. Looking through the rest of the comments I see that I don't have any new feedback, but I can at least say well done team! ^_^

Dating and Boxing by Phoenix Fireflower 2021-04-29T16:50:01Z ♥ 1

Amazing concept! :D The boxing worked surprisingly well, although there were a few attacks that seemed to always hit no matter when I dodged. That you managed to include different hit zones, dodges and counters is heckin' amazing, especially when it was all so well telegraphed. This is great! ^_^

Run Miner Joe by Rolle 2021-04-29T16:25:18Z ♥ 1

Ahoy there fellow endless runner creator ^^ This is a pretty decent runner, although I think the difficulty ramps up a wee bit too fast :D I think the vision blocking effects were a bit too aggressive, especially considering that one mistake is enough to end the run :) I had fun though and that's what's important ^^

Memory Dive by Kirbloid 2021-04-28T20:23:03Z ♥ 1

That's a lot of dialogue to figure out in such a short time ^^ This was really cool. The mood definitely hit home and although the sync mechanic was a bit tricky to understand I finally got it. I really liked figuring out what had happened and using that knowledge to think about which memory was the next clue.

Well done :D

My own Asteroid by loonydrope 2021-04-28T19:55:14Z ♥ 1

Well done throwing me for a loop with the theme like that :D Seemed a bit hard to control at first but after a few tries I taught myself enough small techniques to deal with most obstacles. Very nicely implemented story segments, although some of the text is a bit tricky to read ^^

Managed to find a bug where a portion of the level didn't appear and I managed to lead the character outside the walls before the next area appeared, resulting in endless falling at really high speeds :D

I liked this, and there are indeed good things to live for ^_^

Depth Orb by cogcomp 2021-04-28T19:34:41Z ♥ 0

Great music :D The speed of the game was a bit too fast for me at times and having the camera glued to the ball made my eyes spin a bit, but I persevered and got past the big enemy and then promptly fell into spikes ^^

Not a bad entry at all ^^

Diver by hungryroy 2021-04-28T19:22:20Z ♥ 1

Congrats on your first LD and a job well done :D I'd say this is a solid entry ^^ Nothing is hard to understand and the controls may be a little stiff but they don't get in your way so it doesn't really matter. Could become better with some additional types of challenges but I understand that there's not enough time to do everything during LD :)

And I also don't have a clue how I'm supposed to be able to bring the treasure to the surface :D

Drop n Grab by samguy 2021-04-28T19:08:03Z ♥ 1

Maybe a bit too minimalistic, but I did enjoy playing with the corners to gain downward momentum :)

I'm gonna be the deepest! by trieckaga 2021-04-28T19:00:46Z ♥ 0

An interesting take on the theme, although a bit barebones. Also seems like winning was impossible, I had $250 in the end and none of the competitors had reached $100, but I still lost =(

Still neat to use the theme for a gambling mechanic ^^

Crown of the Mountain King by vilcans 2021-04-28T18:49:18Z ♥ 1

Love seeing retro projects like this ^^ Unfortunately didn't finish it since my browser crashed due to low memory (might be my system, but could be a memory leak in the project).

Also it took some time for me to realize that I had picked up the crown, so that is an area for improvement :D

Good job!

Deepest Sword by Strega 2021-04-28T09:52:53Z ♥ 0

Excellent! Definitely one of the top games of this LD for sure ^^ Also... pretty dragon 👀

Canyoneer by Kieron Woodhouse 2021-04-28T06:04:23Z ♥ 1

I loved this <3 Did not expect climbing down a hole would be so challenging. Getting some momentum with the rope while swinging takes a bit more time than I would like but that's more of a preference thing rather than a complaint.

Heckin' well done :D

Rope Down by Wunarg 2021-04-28T05:47:53Z ♥ 0

I like the concept, but unfortunately the framerate is basically non-existent for me which makes it unplayable =(

Afraid to Turn by rhoff95 2021-04-28T05:37:05Z ♥ 1

Now that's what I call mood! ^^ An excellent LD entry. I didn't quite understand the point of the two icons next to the rock/berrie counter, but I didn't seem to need to either :)

Unto the Eight by Threeli 2021-04-26T21:10:14Z ♥ 1

Heckin' impressive to create a world like this in 48h ^^ Well done! I enjoyed it a lot :D

Through Dimensions by potatolain 2021-04-26T20:52:48Z ♥ 1

This would have been really cool to play on a Nes, but alas I'm forced to settle for the web-emulator today. Definitely a cool project :D Reminded me about playing The Adventures of Lolo as a kid ^^ Unfortunately my session was cut short when I transitioned into a new frame and got stuck to a rock that was on the edge, but I definitely enjoyed myself up until that point ^^

Third Dimension by JuliusCube Arcade 2021-04-26T20:37:30Z ♥ 1

Seemed a bit simple at first but oh were I mistaken. This concept is really neat ^^ Especially once you start to rotate the levels. A shame though that it becomes very easy to find shortcuts to the end when you can manipulate the rotations so freely, but that's very understandable with a concept like this on such a limited timeframe.

This has the potential to be a solid headscratcher <3 Well done :D

Potato Pandemonium by SugarSugarSugar 2021-04-26T17:58:37Z ♥ 2

There are many things to say about this game, but how you built in natural tutorials into the level-design definitely deserves a mention. Very much enjoyed the JoJo-reference in the final encounter ^^

Deep Sea Diver by gimbalock 2021-04-26T17:42:29Z ♥ 1

1255m :D A very well executed entry ^^ The style was cute and the music was soothing, so it all seemed like a very relaxing experience. That changed though around 800m and suddenly I was focusing pretty hard to catch the few bubbles that arrived and avoid the onslaught of jellyfish :D

I enjoyed this ^^

Prospector Paranoia by Kovi 2021-04-26T17:19:23Z ♥ 1

I always enjoy small horror games ^^ Really liked the mood of this and definitely impressed by the amount of animations and sprites that you produced in such a short time. I wish the exits had some distinct markings but that's pretty much the only thing I had problems with.

Well done :D

Altum Square by Ennacirruh 2021-04-26T17:04:49Z ♥ 1

Congrats on your first participation in a jam ^^ With such a neat concept too :D

Putting the bugs aside this game is a little wonky but the potential is great. There are a few things in the design that I would personally change, for example not letting the player "ball" scroll with the screen and instead stay in that position of the maze to avoid letting every vertical hole become a resting ground.

I hope the rest of your jam experience will be a great one ^^

Through The Looking Glass by soldans85 2021-04-26T16:45:06Z ♥ 1

The concept of not only searching for numbers but also remembering them is surprisingly engaging. In all its simplicity this is definitely a good core concept. Some prettier graphics and sound would basically be all you need to make an engaging mobile game ^^

LD46 — Keep it alive (27)

Metamagotchi by onnofal 2020-04-23T13:00:16Z ♥ 1

The style is adorable ^^ Would love to see a finished version =)

The Living Blob by dob 2020-04-23T12:47:02Z ♥ 1

I love jam puzzles <3 Will admit that I chuckled at the blob puns ^^

Battery Life by fazz 2020-04-23T12:21:36Z ♥ 1

Really nice jam horror =D As a bite sized horror game this is pretty close to perfection. It's probably tricky to expand on this to something bigger and better, but I genuinely enjoyed this ^^ Too bad that I managed to escape on my first attempt. Would probably have gotten a bigger kick out of it if I didn't =)

That guy by baylej 2020-04-23T12:02:16Z ♥ 1

I like that you gave a supporting role the major role ^^ As it is it's a bit too simple but I do believe something with this concept could be a really fun game if it had some extra time in development =D

Don't Kill, Wash Hands (First LUDUM) by Tom Kun 2020-04-22T12:28:16Z ♥ 1

Congratulations on your first LD ^^ I like the way you went about the theme but there are some things that needs improvement. For instance interacting with both the bears and chickens is a bit unclear. Some extra visual or audio-cues would probably help, and the animation for these interactions should probably be a bit quicker. Getting the chickens to enter the cannons could be a bit smoother. I assume the trigger area for this interaction is just a bit small.

Really cool and moody entry nonetheless. I hope we get to see more from you in future LD's ^^

Doggo by D4rkWeasel 2020-04-22T11:56:02Z ♥ 1

The evil sheep threw me off the map! XD Despite that though, this is a funny game. Those voiceovers are pretty funny and the way the sheep bounce around is really cute ^^ Would be nice with some visual feedback that barking at the wolves is working, but this is a solid compo entry ^^

Grove Guardian by VivianMochi 2020-04-22T11:30:58Z ♥ 1

You made THIS in 48 hours!? That's amazing! =D Such a pretty and pleasant game, and you even implemented tech trees. This is definitely one of the best games I've tried so far during this jam. Very well done ^^

Of Wolf and Mom by Derek Volker 2020-04-22T08:24:57Z ♥ 2

Sweet choice of theme interpretation =) The controls could definitely use a bit more polish to make it less floaty but carrying around a tiny werewolf is definitely the type of game I want to see more of.

Plant Boy by cannedveg 2020-04-21T19:28:25Z ♥ 1

Really cute game =) The controls were a bit finicky but the overall experience was really nice ^^

Servers & Sockets by Noxbuds 2020-04-21T15:05:05Z ♥ 1

Excellent theme interpretation! Maybe it's a tad too challenging too quickly? Didn't really have time to learn how to properly balance my servers, but I guess that's also part of the challenge ^^

Tower Doffense by blint6 2020-04-21T14:57:04Z ♥ 1

This has a really neat TD twist. I like it ^^ Would be nice with a little less button mashing but the concept is really solid =D

Long Live The King by JavaSaurus 2020-04-21T13:40:10Z ♥ 1

This game is neat, and made my finger really really tired '^^ A little question though, is there a "win state"? I managed to reach the castle but nothing really happened so I kind of assumed that was the end, unless I encountered a mean bug =)

TimeSlayer TM by GoblinQueen 2020-04-21T12:16:44Z ♥ 1

Such nostalgia! :'D I loved this entry and got absolutely no criticism to give. Great job! <3

The Unicorn and the need for coffee..! by INCD021 2020-04-21T11:15:56Z ♥ 1

Any game involving unicorns is a great game in my book ^^ Did not expect the unicorn to escape... or to get turned into coffee =D

Your Pet Alien by AdonisDevs 2020-04-21T10:56:53Z ♥ 1

Really good entry ^^ Did not expect it to be as challenging as it was, but maybe I'm just horrible at keeping secret pets =D

Hungry Monster by JOrbits 2020-04-21T10:49:46Z ♥ 0

Despite it's unfinished state I really liked this. Getting more and more minions to control as the score increases is neat and I can definitely see future mechanics where that would play a huge part ^^ Would not mind seeing a more fleshed out version of this one =)

Feed Me More! by Itskdog 2020-04-20T15:47:08Z ♥ 1

Best voice acting in a compo-submission ever! <3 It's a really neat concept to force the player to choose between doing the objective or using their resources for upgrades. It was a bit too easy to reach a point where you could go on forever but I definitely had fun figuring out how to get there =)

A Cold Walk Home by Stefanie Leitch 2020-04-20T15:04:48Z ♥ 1

This was really good! ^^ I'm always impressed when compo-submissions manage to incorporate a story but this is beyond what can be expected from such a short timespan =D

A tiny criticism would be that at certain times I felt that I didn't have time to read the story since I needed to keep up the flame and hunger meters at all times. Would be nice to safely pause or something to be able to read in peace ^^

Don't Forget To Water! by Thor Lucas 2020-04-20T13:32:15Z ♥ 1

I really liked this. Would not have minded a few more challenging levels but that's pretty much only because I wanted to play more ^^ Great work! =D

Ice Ice Baby by Fabrizio Spadaro 2020-04-20T13:21:52Z ♥ 1

This is neat ^^ I really liked the size-speed ratio thing. That's pretty clever =)

Shy Talker - Keep the Conversation Alive by TrKo 2020-04-20T12:01:59Z ♥ 1

Great use of the theme! Love the conversation sound ^^

Let's stick together by syo 2020-04-20T11:53:38Z ♥ 1

This game is extremely impressive. Took a bit of time to understand the mechanics but once you do there's a huge amount of depth. Well done! ^^

Egg Rocket Unicorn by ubershmekel 2020-04-20T11:29:35Z ♥ 1

I definitely didn't expect a full fledged storyline with a branching narrative from a compo-submission. Heckin' well done =D

Don't Leaf Me by MickeyO 2020-04-20T11:16:30Z ♥ 1

That's one adorable plant ^^ A solid little platformer. Could use some sound effects but overall this is great! =D

An ocean's life by Shootboots 2020-04-20T10:55:56Z ♥ 0

This is a surprisingly effective game for increasing environmental concerns. I would have liked to see some extra feedback for the player and some objects spawned too close to the edge of the screen so I couldn't clean them up, but I really like the concept. Well done ^^

The Aggression Of a Virus by dan-one23 2020-04-20T10:37:54Z ♥ 0

This is a neat game =) I do however wonder if the score maybe should be based on time rather than collided viruses, but that's personal preference ^^

Feed me! by Liam 2020-04-20T08:41:14Z ♥ 1

I really liked this one ^^ It's a little bit unclear what some of the resources are at the start but that's a minor issue. Well done =D
