This wasn't as bad as I initially thought it would be. It's a funny concept and an entertaining game. There are very few things I can complain about. Finding the key in the beginning is a bit tedious and the win screen is underwhelming and unrewarding. Also I wish you'd have made it even more messed up and weird.

Interesting concept but there's too much to keep track of for me.

The Robots of PUZZBUTT by OnlySlightly 2017-08-13T06:40:56Z ♥ 1

I think I beat the game? Does it end with the GAME OVER screen? Or is there some kind of amazing Frog Fractions style game underneath I haven't figured out?

VoltRush by Reiv 2017-08-13T06:34:13Z ♥ 0

Great jam game! Fast-paced, visually appealing. The only two nitpicks I have are that the camera is centered too high so it's hard to see where you need to land at times. And in the heat of the moment it is way too easy to hit the R key instead of the E key at the end (unless that's just me).

Zest & Goop by conk 2017-08-13T06:25:50Z ♥ 1

There's so much potential with this game. The mechanics could have been conveyed better (I'm not even sure if I full understand it now), but I had a blast playing it. I'd love to be able to play a more polished version on my phone.

Also you gotta add a link on your itch.io page to this one. It was a pain finding to get here to comment.

People are the power by ElGregos 2017-08-13T02:49:07Z ♥ 1

This game is incredibly fun and surprising to see made with Pico-8. You can kind of cheat by spamming the instant picker for an easy win, but it's damn fun to do.

Alien Swarm by oxrock 2017-08-13T02:40:02Z ♥ 0

It's rare for a game to be so bad that it's good. Unlike movies, a bad game is generally too annoying or painful to play to be enjoyable. However, you've somehow made a game that managed to be so bad that it's good.

Congratulations, I think?

Remote by oab 2017-08-13T02:35:19Z ♥ 1

This is a perfect game jam game. Usually not a big fan of leftist propaganda, but this game is well-made enough that I don't care if it is full of liberal lies.

The Crossing by Crabman 2017-08-13T02:28:51Z ♥ 0

There's no reason for the game to take so long or to be so hard. I'm glad I couldn't get my criminal person out of the country. He probably deserves to be caught by the honest, hard-working law enforcement agent. At least the boarder police guy doesn't slow down for snacks or to sleep.

Existence = Pain by Melonai 2017-08-13T02:19:21Z ♥ 0

The jumping "puzzles" require you to be more precise than the browser build can allow for. Also the first commenter was right about the camera being whack. Great, great visuals and game feel though. Your next game could be great if you're able to make the gameplay fun.

Be Queen Bee by LucasMolina 2017-08-13T02:15:10Z ♥ 1

I love the visuals. I have no idea what is the point of the game.

The Hall of the Sorcerer King by celia14 2017-08-13T02:08:52Z ♥ 1

I like how all the choices are between trading off your health or your mana. It makes the game slightly more interesting than a standard text adventure. At least until you figure out the gimmick.

Slowbot by LeviDSmith 2017-08-13T02:05:18Z ♥ 0

I'm not sure what to say. There wasn't anything specifically bad about the game. There wasn't anything good about it either. Slowbot was the most nothing game I've played this whole Ludum Dare. Don't quit your day job, old man.

Lights Out by MikomiKisomi 2017-08-13T01:10:45Z ♥ 0

There's not much horrific about default RPG Maker mechanics, faux-anime character designs, or Haram the fairy.

StarAway by frogcheese 2017-08-13T00:52:44Z ♥ 1

Shame that such an interesting concept was handled in such a flawed way. The gameplay just feels off. I think it's because there's no real choice in the actions you take, you either hit the ramps or you don't without any chance of correcting yourself. That and the repetition killed it for me. Of course, maybe I'm way off base in my analysis since my game technically had the same gameplay problems/quirks I just said that didn't like in your game. But probably I was right all along and both our games suck.

Also it'd have been nice if the cubes you dodge used textures that were in a similar style to shark man.

Zone Slayer by mmason 2017-08-13T00:30:46Z ♥ 0

Decent first attempt at making a game. You should be happy since there's a lot to be improved on. The controls feel clunky because there's so much of a delay between input and action as well as the slow speed of the game. The Alt key was not a good choice for the melee weapon since Firefox uses the Alt key in order to bring up the task bar, making the melee unusable in Firefox. Graphics are ugly while simultaneously being impossible for the NES to render (which I bring up since I assume the aesthetic is supposed to be in the style of an old school NES game). There is also no contrast between the player's sprite and the sidewalk which makes the visuals hard on the eyes. The gameplay itself is similarly a mess. Why even bother having a health bar if the main enemy is the sluggish controls? I'd be surprised if anyone died for any reason other than not being able to waddle to a battery in time. But like I said, decent first attempt. Maybe one day you'll make something better than this.

Not Like This... by quixatocs 2017-08-13T00:04:02Z ♥ 1

You came up with a fun and unique gimmick but you've flubbed some basic game design fundamentals. I think it goes beyond "lacking polish".

Politics - Rome by Julisep 2017-08-12T23:54:18Z ♥ 0

The game in incomprehensible. And that's putting it kindly.

Fuse Cell by christina-antoinette-neofotistou 2017-08-12T20:16:54Z ♥ 0

I love the visuals and the gimmick, but there are a few things that makes this fall short as a shmup. Off the top of my head, it's ultimately rather easy once you get the hang of the charging mechanics, I could not tell what my hitbox was, and there was at least one safe area during the final boss fight.

Breaker Breaker! by FlyingMeta 2017-08-07T19:28:39Z ♥ 2

There could be a cool game to be made where there are two planes you need to switch between to solve puzzles. As it is now, this game is effectively random. I can't tell what consequences my actions will have.

LOW BATT by simonhutchinson 2017-08-05T17:00:50Z ♥ 1

There has to be a good idea somewhere in this game. Maybe I misunderstood something. All I could to was hold down until the meter filled up the mash the other arrow keys until the green bit of the meter was depleted. I don't know if I was supposed to hit the keys on beat but my strategy worked for me.

Dont ask me to stop being a outdated junkrobot by Ludic Studios 2017-08-04T16:06:54Z ♥ 2

You already know that the game is fun and polished (though it could have used a bit more variety), so allow me to b̶e̶ ̶a̶ ̶t̶o̶t̶a̶l̶ ̶w̶e̶e̶a̶b̶o̶o̶ nitpick your Japanese. The title screen text should really be "サイゴの ULTIMATE BATTLE" in order to show that Saigo is in the possessive. "サイゴス ULTIMATE BATTLE" makes it seem like the name of the robot is Saigos.

Had to go into the terminal to try to launch this in Linux. Maybe remove the .bin extention? Also the game wouldn't run as is: "error while loading shared libraries: libasound.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

Right before I played this game I got into an argument with a friend. I said that a game is never worth playing for the story. Boy, did this game prove me wrong.

Funny story, great gameplay. Better graphics could have taken this one up a notch. Also, you guys should look into "The Art of Screenshake", a talk given by the white half of Vlambeer. Regardless, I'm looking forward to what you guys do next.

The Last Light by Loktor 2017-08-03T14:17:14Z ♥ 2

I found an error where you can't jump while standing still. Not that there is any discernible reason why it would be advantageous to jump.

Last Shine by Fran Segura 2017-08-03T14:10:47Z ♥ 1

The art style is easily the best thing about this game. However, as a brawler it leaves much to be desired. The level is short and there weren't many viable options to the combat. You can beat the game by only punching without needing to use the aerial or charge moves. As it is, there's no real reason to even have those more powerful moves from a gameplay perspective.

AtomoS by DayDreamerStudios 2017-08-03T14:02:04Z ♥ 0

I love the idea of this game, but it would have been nice to see the difficulty ramp up or to have different bullet patterns that you need to dodge like in a bullet hell shooter.

This Ludum Dare, I've seen a handful of these top-down walk around and collect items to extend your survival timer types of games. My question is why have a finite amount of items in this game? It makes playing these past a certain point impossible.

Oh no! Democracy! by Tim Eriksen 2017-08-03T02:46:53Z ♥ 3

Your game has great graphics, gameplay style, atmosphere. But it also has timed platforming with zero room for error that ruins the entire experience.

Slime Chargers! by thepaperpilot 2017-08-02T22:25:56Z ♥ 0

I like the idea but there are some design problems with execution. For example, it's optimal to squish all your slugs in early waves so you can farm coins from the stickmen. You also might as well not have the option to drop the castle from a higher high since it's strictly worse than clicking directly on the stickmen which is a shame since it's so much fun to drop the castle from the top of the screen.

Zombie Rush by Duck_Games 2017-08-01T16:31:29Z ♥ 1

The only way I could beat this game was immediately driving to the left or right edge of the map then pressing up, ignoring the damage I took. The limited amount of fuel disincentives dodging the zombies which limits the player to following the "don't bother dodging" strategy.

Death of a Mage by kalibrated 2017-07-31T20:35:41Z ♥ 1

I'm not sure if the gimmick of losing abilities affects the game too much until the very end. I made it to level 13 without using any of the abilities and ended up dying because the main ice ray was powered down. It'd be better if the abilities were more useful from the start, possibly by making the base game more difficult so you need to use those extra abilities. The game is otherwise well-made.

Epilogue Hero by FuzzySaez 2017-07-31T18:11:23Z ♥ 0

I'm very confused by this game. Ultimately, there doesn't seem to be much you can do to affect the game. For example, there is no reason not to hold the right arrow at all times, so why do I even have the option not to? Also, you'd get more people playing the game if you listed the link as a web game.

Night of the Living Toaster by WhatFruit 2017-07-31T17:50:59Z ♥ 1

Power Ring Facility by Herman Chau 2017-07-31T17:42:13Z ♥ 2

It's good to see another person using Godot!

The game has a great idea but it gets too hard too fast. It's one thing to require the player to do a precise platforming maneuver and another thing to make them do a bunch of maneuvers in a row without any checkpoints between them. I wasn't able to get past 2.001.
