LD29 — Beneath the Surface

Exo-Aquatic by deathray 2014-04-29T20:03:00

I just love the concept! Ran terribly slow on Chrome, but on Firefox it was normal. I managed to survive with -600 o2 ;) And the Antenate I didn't increase my range. It is slow paced and I didn't have the patience to finish it - but it got me hooked up and I spent far more time on it than I should :D I love this kind of games and this has some real potential! Only needs some obstacles and more danger while diving :)

Wriggle Worm by gikdew 2014-04-30T17:58:00

Nice controls & gfx. Gameplay could use a little bit more of variation (or did I play too short?) :)

Beast Emerging by adcrusher 2014-04-30T17:52:00

Nice game, but a bit hard. Only managed to get to the second "phase" with very little HP so I died quickly.

Beneath The Surface - The Path by Baknik 2014-04-30T17:55:00

Cool concept, simple controls, nice physics. Could be a neat mobile game :)

Nothing to Declare by GarrickWinter 2014-04-29T20:23:00

I like how it feels a little bit like Pac-Man (avoiding the "Ghosts" :) Great concept!

Beneath Wireframe by Manuel Magalhães 2014-04-30T06:37:00

Nice and simplistic :) Shapes closing is a little bit awkward.

Balancitos by NickZangus 2014-04-29T23:12:00

The best I played so far! :D Fun & great looking and has audio too! :)

Back To the Surface by Ken Ichi 2014-05-01T17:51:00

Nice and fun!

Sewer Rat Racer by Robber 2014-04-29T20:31:00

Neat! The physics is a bit sloppy at times, but generally good idea and execution :)

River of Souls by Jiyambi 2014-05-01T11:52:00

Great graphics. Lacking actual gameplay ,but pretty heavy stuff - contrasting the happiness of marriage and birth with the later destruction is saddening.

Rolly-Polly-29 by benmcnelly 2014-04-30T12:35:00

Quite hard, but fun :) Awaseome graphics!

Atomicle - LostAutumn.net by AutumnGuy 2014-05-02T12:13:00

Sweet! Best so far!
Although the triangles could have a different color to make them differ from the squares :)

Hollow Earth by Vinyl Pixels 2014-04-29T08:27:00

@The-nameless-kompany You can use Shift to move faster :)

Hollow Earth by Vinyl Pixels 2014-04-29T20:17:00

I'm aware of the fact that there is not much gameplay here :) I went with the "experience" path ("Protheus" anoyone? ;)). When I thought about the "Below the Surface" theme, and the idea of "hollow earth" poped into my mind - I knew I didn't have an idea for actuall gameplay, but just wanted to check how the hollow Earth concept would feel. The controls are a bit strange because I fixed them an hour before the deadline ;) Although the player gets positioned correctly (always aligned along the "sun-current position" axis) the actual movement moves you "in front when you are looking" - that's way it's possible to fly (just look up) and fall below Earth (look down). I alredy got an idea for a mini-project based on this concept and code: stay tuned for more! (and maybe look for "Vinyl Pixels" on Facebook to stay up to date? ;))

Beneath The Surface by adamwoolridge 2014-04-29T21:14:00

Nice! Loved the graphics style and the arcadeness :)

Downloading the source to compare it agains my idea ;)

European water vole ATTACK by Scam 2014-04-30T12:29:00

Fun! I liked the water "physics" a lot :) You can dig an underground lake for the poison to go there giving you more time to get to the carrots :)

Hollow Planet by Akz- 2014-05-02T12:29:00

At first I was like: meh, just a decent polished take on the side switching games.

But then I discovered the through-ground-jumping mechanics and the fact that you can actually kill the enemies and I was like: SUPER AWESOME :)

Really, I WANT MORE!

Ice Treasure by EpiphanyG 2014-04-29T20:10:00

Quite simple and random. Also it would be better if there was some timer showing how mush time you have left. I like it that you can have a queue of tiles to click on :)

Ninja Fish by Hamsternator 2014-05-01T17:36:00

You should splt the pack with executables :)
Quite fun, I liked the exlporing and kicking larger fish in their butts :)

I'm Guilty by pandamicro 2014-04-29T20:38:00

Nice little platformer :) Liked the general feel and the mechanics.

Deep Sea Fishing by Mago 2014-05-01T17:31:00

Simple bug fun. Feels quite complete as a game.

Ascent by sstrandberg 2014-04-29T18:22:00

Very challanging! There should be more red plates near the start :) Overall a nice fresh runner game :)

Dig Master by cirolve 2014-05-01T17:41:00

182 :) Great little game. Feels complete. Very fun to play!

I would only make the "current block" shift more noticable - the need to look at the top HUD to check how much time you have left and what is the new block kinda distracts you from the game.

LD30 — Connected Worlds

Escape This Place by Demorro 2014-08-26T11:31:00

Fun game :) Neat graphics and audio.
Quicker respawns would be nice considering a pretty high momentum and very spiky spikes :)

NECLiD by 0x0961h 2014-08-28T11:35:00

Awesome. Hard to believe it was made in 48h, with all the fancy graphics, audio and level design!

Binary System by rogueNoodle 2014-08-28T11:33:00

Great graphics, nice music, pretty hard :)

Blend and Bobble by rezoner 2014-09-14T19:23:00

Nice :)

What Could Possibly Go Wrong? by Andrew Shouldice 2014-08-27T17:46:00

Pure awesomeness :)

The Subconscious by Snicklodocus 2014-09-05T16:59:00

A bit confusing, but nicely done :)

RED Thread by NickZangus 2014-08-28T11:42:00

Another great entry! Awesome, loved the graphics and the mood.

H.O.C.M.A. by Techblogogy 2014-08-28T11:57:00

:| I didn't understand the gameplay :/ Although the general idea seemed to be good :)

My First Public Meltdown by Piat 2014-08-26T12:04:00

Didn't know how to play it and what was going on... Clicking on the Twitter button increased the bottom bar to 50% for a while and then it disappears... I've seen that there were some followers in Austrialia, but didn't feel like I hade any control over the game :/ It's a pitty because the idea seems neat.

Around the Worlds in 80 seconds. by Vinyl Pixels 2014-08-25T23:48:00

@Craftsdwarf
Hmm, there is an audio countdown on the Radioactive and Moon levels. I went with audio, because I felt that when you are focused on gameplay, any visual timer would be a distraction.

And the level is actually random, with the same seed for everyone - so no work on design here :) But it generated a few nice spots ;) Fox example, at some point there are 3 clocks close to each other on the Lava world :) Technically the levels are 2048 cells in length (don't remembed the exact number)? But you have only 80 seconds with additional clocks being very scarce, so no one should be able to get to the end of the worlds ;)

Disconnect Worlds by thomz12 2014-08-26T12:15:00

Great idea, but for some reason my scroll wheel didn't change the power so the game was unplayable :(

%20 Shooter by carrier_signal 2014-08-26T12:10:00

Keyboard movement controls on web didn't work for me... I could only shoot :/

Space&Slaves by Alexander Shukalo 2014-08-26T11:49:00

The first time I tried to land on a planet I tried to match the speed of the ship to the speed of the planet so I don't crash :D (To0 much Kerbal I suppose).
Fun game! Flying around in the solar system and catching planets feels good. The clicking during the hunting seemed to be a bit laggy and unresponsive at times though.

Contested Systems by JoshDBB 2014-08-28T11:48:00

Nice, it's a pitty there's no AI.

Lenore: Dark Days Ahead by Team Luminous 2014-08-26T11:34:00

Unfortunately I can't see the walls so it's kinda hard to play :/

Super Mega Ultimate Dimensional Space Shooter 3000x by @BrainlessPotato 2014-08-28T11:50:00

:)

Too Close to Die by hb3p8 2014-08-26T11:55:00

Great idea for a twist on the classic lunar lander :) Nice physics and "battle elements." Storming through a war field was quite intense (though I'll admit that I crashed on the other planet :().

LD31 — Entire Game on One Screen

Press i for inventory by mr_tag 2014-12-09T18:17:00

One of the best games so far! Great, funny concept and execution! My only complaint would be that the slots are not to obvious :) But still, the highest rated game so far!

Go farm! by vidarn 2014-12-11T23:56:00

I don't usually download games (yes, I'm that lazy) I prefer the hassle-free web browser playing. But loved the isometric "island" floating in the air and decided to give it a try. That was a good decision :) Nice game, liked the atmosphere and the exploration bit!

S̹̺̣̤a͏͚̤͙ͅt͡e̖̣̬̥lli̭̬̳͈̟͖t҉ȩ̩̬̰ by lun 2014-12-09T19:01:00

Nice one! Nice graphics and audio but a little bit confusing :)

duals by sergilazaro 2014-12-10T17:26:00

It's amazing how much you can push into such a small game :) The minimalistic look is great! The mechanics are quite simple, and even though there is not a single line of tutorial, you learn by playing level after level! Awesome!

Coin Toss Simulator 2015 by Mekuri 2014-12-09T20:25:00

Funny :) Also I got an "edge" on a toss, but didn't get bazillion points for that - disappointed ;) http://imgur.com/dCw600K

Pocket Contra Force by nodoxi 2014-12-09T02:49:00

Awesome entry! Sweet graphics, tight gameplay :) Props for the "Contra" :)

Pixplorer by Nega Drive 2014-12-11T21:15:00

This is by far the best thing I've seen! THIS is what the theme was meant for! And it's funny that I kinda missed the whole controls screen and played without zoom :D Kudos to you!

Entomophobia by DoubleS 2014-12-09T18:53:00

That was awesome! :D But the boss killed me :/ Really liked the chaos on the screen after a couple of gun upgrades and lots of enemies :D

Mobius Dungeon by nesis 2014-12-09T12:20:00

Nice one :) Love the graphics!

Grokageddon by lukz 2014-12-09T13:18:00

Nice mechanics. I liked how you "explore' the map :)

Oust Santa! by Delicious Code 2014-12-09T13:06:00

Neat. Great gfx and audio! The light in the night look awesome and beautiful.

HexaPong by fancypants 2014-12-09T18:08:00

Nice and simple :) Liked the disappering bars, that added to the challenge!

Bedungeoned by Vinyl Pixels 2014-12-09T02:32:00

@lukz: I got the music here: http://www.fakemusicgenerator.com/ :D
@cinderous The fireball is actually quite simple! It's the first time I played with particle systems in Unity, and it took only a couple of minutes to create :)

Bedungeoned by Vinyl Pixels 2014-12-09T23:01:00

@gquibao @LegacyCrono Did you have any friend to play with? I just tested, and fired the game in two different browsers and could connect without problems.

Bedungeoned by Vinyl Pixels 2014-12-10T04:59:00

@gquibao @LegacyCrono
I've uploaded a new version with a small change, that I hope will fix the problem. Hope it works this time!

Velcro by camlang 2014-12-09T13:10:00

Looks, sounds and plays great. Although would benefit from some instructions in the actual game :)

No More Boxes by Tuism 2014-12-10T12:30:00

Nice physics! Awesome mix of "true" physics and the boxes ending up in a grid layout. :) Different character classes along with the solid gameplay mechanics make this a really great game!

Dread Keep by Frump 2014-12-10T12:55:00

Pretty neat :) A bit hard and hectic, but fun nonetheless :) Liked the art style.

Demons Trial by guimonpa 2014-12-09T02:09:00

Awesome! Nice graphics, menus integrated into the level, solid gameplay, great gfx, neat audio!

Deadly Dungeon by Axebane 2014-12-09T20:19:00

No character rotation? Liked the retro feel, and the map with mini-view as opposed to the view with a mini-map :)

Smash TZ by cinderous 2014-12-09T18:00:00

While not the most beautiful game in the bunch, this was was suprisingly fun! :) Great idea with the auto-fire: made playing on a touchpad quite bearable. The updgrade system does it's job well - it felt really rewarding when my gun got to the "super-fast-shooting" level :) Managed to get 5240 points.

The Shelter by Alter 2014-12-10T04:39:00

Nice one :) Solid gameplay, polished and with awesome graphics!

Ludum Dare Pinball by iShadow 2014-12-09T18:03:00

Haven't played one of those in a while! :) Lovely graphics (love the snowman!). Neat audio & physics!

Space Iron by Caspila 2014-12-09T02:39:00

Great game! Liked the variety of enemies! Solid mechanics, neat gfx and audio.

Alice:nightmare by Sublustris 2014-12-09T18:24:00

Rated high for Graphics and Mood. What are those spinny disks? What do they mark? Without any instructions the game is confusing :)

Cubelicious by spazzarama 2014-12-09T13:13:00

Awesome! A bit hard to switch between the sides :) But a great idea and nice execution.

Eternal War by goodbadokay 2014-12-09T19:24:00

Neat :) Awesome visual style and audio :) Lacking a little bit of gameplay-fun though.

Of Carrots And Blood by Trite Games 2014-12-09T23:06:00

Simple and fun. Nice audio and neat graphics!

Dock and Cover by LimeniusTeam 2014-12-09T21:35:00

Cool game. Controlling all the axes + the speed and roll is hardcore :D

Hunt The Yeti by Elisée and friends 2014-12-10T12:51:00

Nice graphics and solid gameplay! Liked it a lot! It didn't work on Safari though, had to switch to Chrome to play it.

The Rose Processor by Simon 2014-12-09T18:33:00

Great game! I could see this on touchscreen devices where you rotate the four rings with your fingers :) Has a kind of more relaxing and less hectic (although definatelly not easier) Super-Hexagon vibe.
