Alone- The search for home. by gavin5564 2011-12-22T22:58:00

I agree entirely, I'll actually be surprised if anyone finishes it (yes, you can find home) I simply ran out of time as I was passing out on my desk, it does have a heap of items in the game to collect (like fuel drops) but I was never able to stick a loop in their to place them. It is my first game, I'm more of a application developer then games, I spent way to much time doing bad graphics.. And about the sounds, i hate the xna audio engine, i usualy re-write a sound engine using the direct-x dll's..Either way, thanks for the feedback.

A Blind Man in the Darkness by Thomas Pritchard 2011-12-19T04:16:00

Cool concept and a interesting experience. Good job.

Mine Shaft of Doom by miloguy 2011-12-19T23:53:00

Hi, I use XNA aswell..

Instead of making people install the game to play just build the game as release instead of debug then distribute the release folder, it has all the required stuff in it to play..

Lava Run by Exentity 2011-12-20T00:01:00

Couldnt get it to work, is the link dead?

LD23 — Tiny World

TINY LIZARD SWELL WORLD by racarate 2012-04-25T07:58:00

Very very strange.. Good work on the music. The border was a cool effect.

Lighthouse by gritfish 2012-05-11T22:07:00

Seriously fantastic game, I have not played a good puzzler in ages. I suggest expanding and porting to tablets such as the ipad.

World Saver! by Zythiku 2012-04-25T03:46:00

Pretty difficult game. Cool concept tho.

A Theft of Mass by uberneen 2012-04-25T03:52:00

Cool game and fun/ different concept. It was quite difficult to get the laser shooting intially. Good work

Flight of the Ladybug by robcozzens 2012-05-11T22:25:00

Really well done. The art and animation looks great.

Minor Deities by maranas 2012-04-25T08:18:00

Refused to work for me (Win 7 x64).

Home is where the robots are. by greg20man 2012-04-24T03:49:00

Awesome Game, Great graphics. Has a lot of fun with this one.

NanoTanks - A tiny programming game for a tiny world by mjb 2012-04-25T03:39:00

So Sad, The game is link is down, I was excited about this one.

The Sheep Are Sinking by Gremlin 2012-05-11T22:40:00

The was fun. Love the world editing concept to play the game.

The Collector by blob 2012-04-25T08:30:00

Download is corrupt.

Les Petites Bombes by jgalecki 2012-04-25T08:30:00

Great little game.
Just a quick note, Next time just distribute the bin directory instead of making a installer(I also use XNA). Its much more user friendly as the user can just run the .exe without needing to install it as a application. Again, Great little game.

love in the time of fishbowls by otaviogood 2012-04-25T08:41:00

Great game, I really liked the concept. It was unique to the other games I have rated so far. Good job!

Agorobophobia by BrothersT 2012-04-24T03:12:00

The graphics and music where pretty awesome. Although the game confused the hell out of me, I just couldn't work out how to place the end points from point A to point B to make them destroy lines, They kept turning red and didn't do anything. Either way, Good job.

SlimeABug by schattenkind.net 2012-05-11T21:42:00

That's the weirdest game ive played so far. But it's really interesting. Great work.

Tiny War by VDOgamez 2012-05-11T22:27:00

Really great concept with this one although trick to get started. Good fun.

doggone by hazzen 2012-04-25T03:41:00

Such a cute little game. Good time killer. The graphics where nice and clean aswell.

Haxe Planets by jfroco 2012-04-25T03:43:00

Great graphics, Would have liked to be able to control the character myself tho. Either way good job.

Big Space Tiny Man by invaderJim 2012-04-24T03:33:00

Loved the way the guys died when you shot them.

Pro Stew Chugger by Tourgen 2012-05-11T22:36:00

Couldn't work out how to finsih a level, Ate all the soup, killed all the enemies and ran into the green shiny glow of a door.. nothing happened.

terminus by zillix 2012-05-11T22:22:00

Great little game, Love the hidden items you left around.

Planet Waves by attagcatc 2012-05-11T22:10:00

The controls where a bit strange, apart from that the concept was interesting. Good job.

Bright Worlds by johnfn 2012-04-24T03:41:00

Awesome platformer, Just played on windows and it ran like a charm (Win 7, Intel I-7950 3.07ghz, 8gig ram)
The music was fantastic and perfectly fit into the game.
Great job.

Through the Blue Sea by Sandcrawler 2012-04-24T03:46:00

lol, Pretty strange game. It really didn't need the sound effect for when a asteroid was being generated, Music was good tho. Apart from that good work.

Scorched Earth by Jungorend 2012-04-24T03:56:00

Controls need work, Good music.

Mini-Worlds and Monocles by Zed 2012-04-25T08:08:00

Gotta get those sad little envelopes. Good work!

Tiny Planet by CherryNukaCola 2012-04-25T03:54:00

Over excessive explosions, ha could have had a little less but it actually added to the fun and experience. Good fun.

Incursion by Jerm 2012-04-25T07:09:00

Pretty tricky game, I liked how the enemies flashed red and pushed back when hit.

River Runner by omaha 2012-04-24T04:02:00

Gaahhh, This game is annoyingly addictive. Would work well on a Ipad with the accelerometer for controls.
Great job.
Don't know how it relates to the theme tho..

Quaternion Nightmare by Dry Tree 2012-05-11T22:30:00

Strange but had me playing for a while. good work.

Ant Slayer by Kharza 2012-04-25T08:48:00

Really impressed with this one. Great work!

Globe by gavin5564 2012-04-25T08:57:00

Thanks for the comments everyone. The Neon pixel was kinda a placeholder, but It was the best color that showed up, Also considering the pixel really is 1x1 I couldn't have done much to it even if I wanted to.

@Zillix: Not sure what happened with you falling out of the map.

Omaha: I'm not sure if XNA works in linux,OSX..

Robcozzens: Make/find me a XNA to web porter and I and alot of other XNA dev's would be more then happy to use it. I am aware of silversprite but it doesn't support alot of xna functionality.

R3eason: Totally agree, I threw together the ending zoom-out last minute. I'm so glad I did as it really finished off the game and portrayed the exact feeling I wanted to give the user.

All That Are Lost Will Be Found by R3ason 2012-05-11T22:14:00

Great game and fantastic graphics. Freaked me out when I first meat a evil cube. Awesome job!

Rocket Boat by RHY3756547 2012-05-11T21:38:00

Awesome game. Seriously fun to play and great graphics.

Immune by doowttam 2012-04-25T03:38:00

Immune system defense is a fairly good use of the theme, Good job.

Epic Scale Warfare by devwil 2012-04-25T07:54:00

(Win 7 x64, Firefox).. Couldn't get it to work properly, 5 guys shooting at nothing?? Then when I got to the planet view where it says 'Click here to zoom in' nothing happened...

Dwindling Worlds by NiallM 2012-04-25T09:07:00

Great game and one of the best I've played so far, Awesome voice acting and great music. Super impressed.

Tiny world survival by Dracir 2012-04-25T03:49:00

Game crashed about 30 seconds in. Fun little concept and good graphics. Great job.

Trucking the Universe by FrozenCow 2012-04-24T03:21:00

Tricky little time killer, Loved it. The giant monster reminded me of the worm from the movie called "tremors".

Adventures in NoLand by ncannasse 2012-05-11T21:35:00

I really liked the feel of this game. Plays really well too.

ARACHNID by BuffaloPhil 2012-04-24T03:24:00

Cool Game.

trapped. by noddy2006 2012-04-25T07:15:00

Sound and music worked well for me(I enjoyed it aswell). You could improve it to allow the enemies to jump and a timer stating how long you have been in the level for.. The more time the harder/ smarter the enemies.. (Windows 7 x64)
