Fun take on the Nessie idea. It works fine, the mechanics are good, the art is moody. Great work in 9 hours!
Nice little graphic novel, the art is beautiful. Also the switching from the environment to the close-up of Lola is a good trick.
We've got a text based story game too! Alhough that's not very cute...
Great art, great music and detailed system presented as a simple one. It even counts the highest hit combo and air time! Amazing work, I really enjoyed playing it. And an other thumbs up for the engine :)
Good mood. Was a bit hard to avoid getting noticed.
Does the level has to restart every time you throw a kid into the cake? Or am I doing something wrong? :) Nevertheless it's a good idea for this theme.
Nice game, I specially loved the concept for the theme. I have only one problem: It's too easy to die.
Very interesting twist on a noir setting. The art and the music really ads to the mood. It was strange to see that even though the player is a monster, another one did everything. I guess this is how to surprise a player when theme "you are the monster" comes up. Nice
I really liked the ending part, when he got to the castle.
Honestly I thought this is going to be... not very good, when I 1st saw it, but damn I had a good time. I don't know maybe I just haven't seen an rpg yet during this LD, but I loved this. Throwing stuff at the enemies is clever, horrifying them too. It's nice and strategic. One of my favourites so far. Grats!
Nice graphics, very good idea, grats!
Awesome mood and after a time we started to realise it has some depth, but the flashing skull was a little irritating.
It was AWESOME!!! A fullscreen mode wouldn't hurt.
woah, I could see my house from there! That bug's hilarious!
Not a bad concept, I would recommend this for women, because they can murder men all they want. I didn't quite undetstand how the rocks supposed to break but i was happy when they did. It's fun.
The season changed, and the floating animals were always funny. I managed to make a house, but then I got a bit bored. It's relaxing, but I don't get why you're the monster? I may not have played for long enough, but the "reckless consumption" sounds a little forced. It's fun if one reads the description, cause the first time I started I had no idea about anything and died
There are a few problems with this. I played the web version and the text was really small. You should have a controls screen somewhere, 'cause I forgot 1 thing, and when I died, it didn't show it again (yeah thats pretty minor though). There were a few bugs too, the first enemy got stuck on the stairs, and sometimes my attacks didn't work. Other than that this is a very interesting game, with some great writing and story in there, but I find it's not for me :(
Nice work. Although the GUI is a bit confusing.
An interesting concept, but there is a bit of a problem with balancing. Sometimes I was able to possess a ship and it kept their starting planet in check, other times my ships just crashed right back into the planet, or ventured away. It feels a liitle random. Also creating monsters or destroying planets takes forever. By the time I get 200 points while trying to possess enough to fight back they're already at the other side of the map with 3-4 planets, at which point it's hopeless.
Great atmosphere, graphics and sounds. I had fun playing it. Nice work. :)
It took too much time to find one victim for my baseball bat (even with magic vision on). However the game looks good and the music was pleasant.
It's not bad. The level design is a little bit too tight in places, so it requires grest reflexes. Like the others say it would've been better with sound. It makes me want to kill those little girls or whatever monster hunters they are.
Very interesting idea placing the final choice in the hands of the LD community. Can't wait to see what comes out of it. (Go Harriet, the rebel who will chose to save everyone, because her concience gets the better of her... I hope)
In any case, nice story, good characters and writing. I would have liked to see some more backgrounds maybe, but the ones that were there were nice.
I really liked this one. Clever idea for the theme with a nice music in the background, presented with simple but expressive art (it's good to see how much a game can tell us just by playing with the tones of grey). Nice entry, congratulations. Szép munka :)
Interesting idea with nice graphics. I also missed that there's a counter for when can I start moving, I thought I was stuck.
Man, I thought I'll be able to hit them somehow without falling! It's good though. It's fun to take sweet revenge.
Not a bad text based game with some humor. Love'd to see some art though.
I think this is a really good game. Both gameplay and storywise. It's a strategy game. It's not too slow, not too fast, ok the units come a little slowly but it's acceptable, especially when you compare it to the music and the whole setting because everything is melancholic. And that's cool. The art is beautiful and interesting. I won't pretend I understood the story, but it does make me think, and that's the point. Definitely a great entry
I don't get it. I managed to get everybody, but the game said I lost. Maybe it's a bug? My reliability was pretty low, but the last guy (yellow) didn't come back
Other than that, it's an interesting entry. Nice and simple realization of a teen horror movie. A little bit slow, but it has enough tension to get one through. We've got some horror story stuff too if you're into that btw.
I tried the game a few times but I don't think I completely understand it. I don't seem to have too many control over the thing. I mean I try to click those colored boxes with lmb/rmb but I'm not sure they always work. Anyway it worked sometimes and it was fun getting up to a nice speed.
Not a bad game considering it was made in 10 hours.
As you said, it was a big bite for the graphics, but everything worked well
Amazing entry! We thought about narrating ours too, but we didn't have anyone with a cool enough voice. The concept is really great, I did not expect that and it was not forced at all. There was a little bug in the windows version: the cursor kept flashing in the middle of the screen
Very enjoyable game with a twist at the end. The only problem is that it's not well optimised, at least the web version runs quite slowly.
Coconutland is the Coconuts'
Looks like the fishes have a lot to learn from Metal Gear. Great game, I think so far the best stealth game I tried this LD. The humor is there, the theme is ok. The level gets more and more challenging, and the pacing looks fine too.
Very interesting idea and mechanics. The music was too short though, and it felt repetative.
I had fun! Some of the comments were funny, the graphics are good, the sounds are ok. Overall, it's a really nice game
It was a bit hard to control, and the 30s limit is a bit short. I liked the graphics and the base concept. Good entry :)
Good concept! Nice little game you made from the movie.
Much better than I thought at first. It's actually a lot of fun!
I like text-based games and your game is a good one. The sounds and music was great and so was the text. I'd love to see it continued with a more serious-darker theme. Oh, and plus points for the stat screen. :)
It's almost like a puzzle game. Not a very easy one either. If you get the hang of it it's fun
Good loking minimalistic game.
Not a bad start, I liked how the chef followed my clicks and turned towards the destination. It had a smooth animation.
Just a black screen (in Chrome and Firefox as well).
Good graphics and upgrade system. You should give more coins for killing people, because that first 10 second goes away fast.
I have no issues with it. Nice one in 10 hours, and overall a fun little game, and the gravity is really cool.
Nice music, fun gameplay jumping around. Kind of disturbing at the end, especially because you know what's gonna happen probably (I mean turning intto a monster mouse and killng everybody).
I love the graphics and music of this one. Very good entry, congratulations :)
This is awesome. Great graphics with interesting gameplay. :)
For the cons:
- You should state in your description that players will have to install the XNA redist package.
- The game felt a little slow with the dialogues.
Funny and good soundtrack, but could be more complex.
Great minimalistic game. It was fun to chase down sheep.
It has a nice style and the idea behind it is also good. My only problem was that I didn't know what I was doing with this charged attack thing. It seemed that I didn't kill anyone.
I didn't last very long. The direction change gives it almost a cinematic look.
Maybe we'll try it with the team once, but it's cool in single player too.
Good base concept. The graphics was nice, but I'd love to hear some nice tune playing while I have to hide from the villagers.
I really liked this idea. It was fun. Sadly it's a bit too short, I wanted more of it. :)
Not a bad concept, but needs some more work.
You made a great job with the classic graphics and music. I love it.
I like the concept you thought for the game. However I wasn't sure what I was doing. :)
I loved the sounds and the music. It was an interesting game. I'd remove the theme options from the judging categories, because (just like the other commenters) I coudn't find out how this is about the current theme. Great work though. :)
Nice tycoon game! It looks and sounds great! I didn't get far though, I didn't get any missions I could get money off of, so I went bankrupt quick. I'll try again and see if I'll succeed
The GUI is quite pleasant. Congratulations on the design, the game looks quite promising.
This looks amazing! The gameplay is a bit repetitive, but at this lenght it's fine. There's enemy variety, some humor, a nice tune, and some fun to be had.
I loved the items you can drop down :) I waited eagerly just to see what comes up next.
I also have the code error popping up the others commented here.
Interesting concept. I love the way the levels are designed and the concept of integrating the transformation into the platforming.
It's one of the most unique and actually fun games I've seen so far. Good job! The police can be a little too annoying, I don't know how one can stay alive for very long
The story is nice, but the colntrols are a bit clunky and floaty. And that music is too loud! Other than that I liked is, the art is beautiful and the setting is unique.
Note to self: always read the description before playing a game! I didn't turn down my volume...
Anyway, awesome little game, it's fun to go fast even if it hurts my eye. Music's good, art's ok, pretty unique gameplay.
It's a good game. My only problem was that the audio was a bit annoying after 70 kills.
Despite the simple graphics I quite enjoyed it. Loved the details, like the minimap and the 2 weapons. Didn't manage to kill the boss though..
Funny game, but the roar is gettimg annoying after the 3rd wave.
It was funny to destroy my achivments
Interesting concept.
Interesting thinking about the topic, I liked that. However the game can end very quickly, because the explosive barrels come in too frequently.
The gameplay and general idea is unique, the music's ok, maybe it gets a little annoying after a while, the art of the desk is really awesome. Gameplay-wise maybe only I didn't get it but all I did was clicking on the lever, then a city, lever, city, lever, city... I never got more points to level up the kaiju, never had any clue about which parts I should use for which city (if it helps at all). After the second try I had enough, but I've never been a kaiju fan.
It took a while to load, but it has a nice (and hard) gameplay. It was fun to control the arms of that monster :)
Web doesn't work, no data folder in the windows version
Shame you had that bug, I would've liked to see what you can do with this concept. Definitely an interesting idea
Great looking game with the yellow buildings it has a kinda middle-eastern wibe. The mechanics work great too, King-Konging on buildings, but also destroying them is fun.
Only problems I personally have with it is 1: I don't like and am not very good at platformers :), and 2 the middle mouse button didn't work for me.
It's also fantastically polished in three days! Grats
I expected the monster to be a bit faster, and the attack were slow for me as well. But the concept is good and I made some damage over 400.000 eur which is cool. :)
Hard. Very hard, but I enjoyed it as hell.
The web link pointing to Dropbox did not load. However the integrated version in this page did. It's an interesting game I enjoyed much :) Great work. Only 1 problem I had in the gameplay: It's hard to hit the enemies when you are in insane mode.
It's always good to see more C2 games in the jam (we made ours with it too).
I liked the sound effects and the music. It was really creative. It took some time for me to find out how can I get the people fall down from the bridge. Nice entry :)
Not a bad start, keep it up. :) Just some notes for the future:
- Fix your links, otherwise people can't play your game.
- It's not nice to have your web link point to adfly on a game jam.
Based on a good idea, this game is an interesting entry. I just don't think that a time limit is necessary there (I lost a few seconds for trying to jump up platforms and that's why I failed my mission).
I liked how you can push some trees over. :) Nice entry.
So when 15 year olds don't have any ideas, windows crash...
Thanks, I'll keep that in mind when I start teaching.
Anyway, it's not bad! The w key didn't work, and the boss was a little annoying, but the shooting with the flashes and the sound was fun.
Really hard, but fun to play for a while! Great game!
I don't think it's a good idea to pack your game into an installer at LD. The graphics were nice, but I had to read the comments to realize I can double-jump.
This one is a funny interpretation of the theme. Good idea with good graphics. However the one hit kill system makes it too easy to die. Overall: Well made in C2. Congratulations :)
It's a nice little game. The graphics are ok, it worked fine, the gui could use some more work, but it's pretty fun.
Great artwork and fun gameplay. I enjoyed gooing the astronauts. I'd love to hear some sounds under it, but it was fine that way too. Nice to see an other C2 game here.
Nice game. Moody graphics, interesting style, and the music's great. The platforming parts were infuriating, but it was nice. Oh and the drinking mechanic is cool too, though I feel it could've been a little more involved. I don't have any particular ideas though
Great concept, though I had a little problem undertstanding it, there could be a bit more instructions in the trap placing stage. Other than that, it't not bad
This game is such a good representation, that I feel like saying it's fun, would mean tech support is fun. Which clearly is (not). So I'll just say it's one of my favourites this LD! You are truly a monster
I got 416 :)
I liked the images showing the controls, very good idea. The music was also good and I had fun playing it.
Great concept! It's one of my favourites on LD. For the future: The voice acting could use a better quality.
I think I started flying at some point :D I liked the graphics though.
Man shame there was no sound! Some metal with weapon sounds would totally give this one a fun atmosphere. There were some places where I couldn't move. Anyway, It's good fun for a few minutes, and I liked the camera shake too.
Thank you for the responses. It seems that for some reason the servers does not complete the ajax requests for the text to load. Because of this we removed the web version from the list and also updated the description accordingly.
Thanks everybody for your comments!
Sadly we currently don't know what's wrong with the mac version.
Some of you wonder about the ending: if you feel like a bit too many people died... that's probably the evil one :)
If you want to get the (morally) best ending, I'm afraid you'll have to stay confident all the way, and look out in chapter 3.
BTW We're checking out your games too! Thanks again!
@nihilaleph Been there, done that! It's the controls feel better now, good job!
@zatyka Thanks! guide will be linked here in the comments!
@eemmbbeerr Thanks for calling that out, it seems to have slipped by us during playtesting!
Here is the guide if anyone would like to play again:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16623848/Megoszt/AS/tod/TotD_guide.txt
A bit hard to control but a very nice idea and depiction of bowser. Good job!
The artworks are great and the ragdoll supported killing makes it pretty fun to play. You made a good game :)
It's a good looking game, but it could use some variety.
Wow, these kids are fast. :) I liked the intro screen and the graphics. The music is also good.
Nice, interesting concept. Go for adventure games!
It's a good concept, shame for the unfinished part, but the idea is good.
Interesting concept and artwork, but the sounds are a little bit annoying.
Maybe you should ZIP it into 1 file to make the download easier.
The physics engine works well, but the sounds are a bit anoying.
Wow this is absolutely beautiful! A little short but there must have been a lot of work put into the art and the mechanics. It seems very polished (though I'm not sure which version I downloaded, probably the updated one). The sound design and the animation are great too.
The theme is pretty good and It's a surprisingly fun game. at first thought it's just a run-of-the-mill platformer, but the twist's not bad
Not bad for a prototype, but it still has room for improvements.
Lovely art, and nice mood. The bloody font ads a lot to it, and the representation of headache by the red flashes. Good to see someone else thought of this kind of story too.
Very creative and fun! There could be more scenes, but these are cool. Reminds me of stair dismount with the ragdoll.
Absolutely beautiful graphics, and nice idea for a monster story. Definitely one of the best I found so far! We thought of doing a narration too, but we didn't have anyone with such a great voice for the setting. Playing this really makes me think how much narration can help the immersion.
Put some metal under there, and you'll have the perfect LD Guitar Hero with dragons!
Anyway, beautiful art, nice chill music, bird exploding simple fun.
Not bad for a first game. The resoultion was a bit too low for me and when I resized it, it became buggy.
Ok, I'm sorry but how am I supposed to be solving anything? I might be missing something, but guessing is not fun, especially when I have 5 lives and I start all over again
10 minutes? It was half the game for me, I was a real monster to those chicken!
Anyways, great game. I was kinda intimidated by the save points, because I wasn't sure how long it will be. I am surprised how much you were able to squeeze in it in 3 days. Good job!
The gameplay was interesting, not a bad idea for the theme.
I loved the art of this game. The music is great too and even if you didn't make it, it's a good picking.
Android might not be the wisest platform for a jam, but I liked your game (tested it on Windows). The graphics is well done. The music was a bit repetative. And the setting is pretty clever for the theme.
I liked it a lot! It's a fun little game while it lasts, and I think the mechanics would get repetitive after a while, but it could be a little longer. There are some issues with it, mainly the unpredictability of movement. This might be a design choice, but I didn't like it, especially when I couldn't see the water, I stepped in. Also the scream is a little too loud at the end of the sessions I think.
Nice, unique idea, fun and surprisingly atmospheric gameplay. Reminded me a little of a card flipping memory game. Maybe it could use some more diverse alien art.
Reminds me a bit of Hitman GO, it's pretty good. A bit hard to control maybe it's a bit floaty, but not too badly. Not much to do with the theme though, I mean those monologues could have been about how I love to steal other people's panths, but the thought is what counts. :)
Ah yessss! Puns! More give me mooore puns!
It looks great, and plays pretty well.
The camera gets stuck too often, and that f-ing scream is too loud! It's unique and fun though.
The graphics looked good, but the attack were too slow and the player could get killed pretty easily.
Interesting thinking for applying a game mechanics like this for this theme. The music was good, but you should change the controls from WASD to 4 keys that are in the same row on the keyboard.
Cool game! Funny and it's very enjoyable to just drive around and hit everything. BTW I managed to get a bug, I somehow stuck a car between mine and a tree, and it started rolling around and kept giving me 50 points
It's a fun game, I enjoyed it.
Runs fine in Firefox. I like how you built up the snake.
