LD25 — You are the Villain

Super Space Goat Thief Standoff!! by Jezzamon 2012-12-19T00:37:00

I absolutely love the aesthetic in this game :O

Who is the villain? by davidllanos22 2012-12-17T01:12:00

Loved it!

Wandering ViIllain by Almost 2012-12-18T02:15:00

I've messed with LÖVE some before in the past but didn't really like the way Lua worked. I've also been around the LÖVE community some and most games I saw we're pretty bad. But I must admit this game is pretty cool, especially since it's isometric 3d in a 2d engine. The terrain generation is also pretty cool. I wish there were a little more things to do though.

Globe Hacker by rasmusrn 2012-12-19T00:08:00

A lot more fun than I thought that would be :)

Don't Look At Me by Xavier 2012-12-19T00:43:00

I really love the graphics, the theme, the audio, and the ambiance, it's just even though it was your intention to leave out solid game play it's rather uninteresting after 30 seconds of holding the right key without any game play. None the less very cool on the content end though.

Don't Look At Me by Xavier 2012-12-19T00:44:00

I didn't mention this specifically but I should as it's cool, I really love the rain effect :)

You Villainous Person You... by Msquirrel 2012-12-17T21:30:00

This is very Notch-ian ;) That being said and the alliteration of the letter V reminiscent of V for Vendetta it's hard not to like the face of this game. Although the gameplay is a bit dull, as Sim said some puzzle features would have really livened it up a bit. :)

You Villainous Person You... by Msquirrel 2012-12-18T01:14:00

I hugged the left wall too lol

Children : Reverse Slender by HackThePanda 2012-12-17T02:47:00

Thanks! :)

Children : Reverse Slender by HackThePanda 2012-12-17T10:42:00

None, just to give the player a bit more control over movement. It always feels more immersive to me if I can jump in a game.

Children : Reverse Slender by HackThePanda 2012-12-17T20:20:00

He teleports them out of the forest to be at home in their beds safely as he firmly believes no child should be left out in the woods at night alone

Children : Reverse Slender by HackThePanda 2012-12-17T21:33:00

In hindsight I should have made the steps a little less jarring, they've gotten annoying after a couple play-throughs. But I meant for the sounds to be a bit unpleasant as it's an unpleasant theme

Children : Reverse Slender by HackThePanda 2012-12-17T21:33:00

And thank you to everyone for your wonderful feedback :)

Children : Reverse Slender by HackThePanda 2012-12-17T23:10:00

Thanks 8bitDamage :) I worked hard on it
Thank you Msquirrel, it's a personal belief of mine

Children : Reverse Slender by HackThePanda 2012-12-18T00:07:00

Thanks Edocentrique!
@crashbanito I love them too lol, they kind of give me the creeps
@Winterblood Thanks :) I wanted to do more but I just had no time, name of the game though I guess
@Mava thanks! I'm glad you had fun
@horrorpen thank you I'm glad you like it :)

Children : Reverse Slender by HackThePanda 2012-12-18T23:17:00

Lol thanks HeroesGrave :)
@Jezzamon I was too but then I decided to make it myself
@Xavier omg that's the funniest game ever who in the world would come up with that
Thank you Maristak :)
@rasmusrn I've heard people not being able to play it on OSX, I'm not sure why that is as the settings/natives should be set up correctly
@FinalMirage yeah, anyone who asks for a moral behind this game will be that kids should a.) not go into a forest at night without parental supervision and b.) should always travel in groups. And thank you, I'm glad people are liking it :)

Children : Reverse Slender by HackThePanda 2012-12-19T02:40:00

I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

Children : Reverse Slender by HackThePanda 2012-12-19T20:15:00

Thanks monomanio :)

Children : Reverse Slender by HackThePanda 2012-12-20T20:15:00

Thank you!

Children : Reverse Slender by HackThePanda 2012-12-21T04:36:00

Thanks, Puzzlem00n :)
Indeed basic, but as you later mentioned it keeps the game from getting overly complex which seems to be better for Ludum Dare as people aren't really going to take the time to learn and play a complicated RPG just so they can give a quick little rating.
In hind sight I should have made it clearer some how that jump doesn't do anything, confusion defeats the point of immersion.
But yeah, thanks a lot for the feedback! It's much appreciatd

Children : Reverse Slender by HackThePanda 2012-12-21T19:32:00

Thanks Birchmountain!

Children : Reverse Slender by HackThePanda 2012-12-29T22:39:00

Thank you Mista Koo and DDRKirby!

I'm sorry about that garygreen, it has something to do with lower versions of OpenGL, haven't been able to track it down yet.

Children : Reverse Slender by HackThePanda 2013-01-02T18:12:00

Thanks superscratcher!
Thank you fishbrain :)
@Jiyko what about the face in your profile picture? @o@

You Villain by CNIAngel 2012-12-18T01:48:00

For the time he put into it I think it's pretty funny, wish he would have been able to finish his other game though. CNI you should do one of these weekly, with different themes each week and post them on twitter

You Villain by CNIAngel 2012-12-18T01:49:00

You could follow interesting techy/social stories throughout the week and then make text-based comedy adventures based on them. Like you could have made a text adventure on the shooting.
On second thought maybe this isn't a good idea.

Execution Chamber (Now a Jam entry) by Kaslai 2012-12-22T02:09:00

This is probably one of the best games I've played in LD25 yet lol it's just so much fun

LD26 — Minimalism

Come Along With Us by HackThePanda 2013-04-30T10:21:00

@Aiji777 That's normal, you have to give LWJGL permission to run. Java Applets tend to be overly needy with permisssions, sorry about that.
@Bloated Hippo
haha :D I should have made it more clear that babies don't slow you down though and can be run over, the same with red wagons and trees.

Come Along With Us by HackThePanda 2013-04-30T18:49:00

@RandomSpark :)
@AestheticGamer Interpret it as you will ;) Yeah, things got cut a lot around crunch time

Come Along With Us by HackThePanda 2013-04-30T20:54:00

@AlexRose Hah I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
@Jhelle Thanks! Yeah, if the bus is moving too fast my shotty/quick collision code misses it. Also it only checks the front of the bus. I should have just done AABBs instead.

Come Along With Us by HackThePanda 2013-04-30T21:09:00

@Mesene Thanks ^_^
@kunzbe I tried to find a balance between too short and too tedious for the casual LD voter to want to finish

Come Along With Us by HackThePanda 2013-04-30T22:17:00

@whiteravens I'm glad you enjoyed it!
@psychomonster What could be better? Thanks :)

Come Along With Us by HackThePanda 2013-05-01T17:31:00

@LizEngland Thanks ^_^
@lightnarcissus As you can imagine, there was more planned but it had to be cut haha :D I'm glad you liked what was in.
@negativeview I think I understand what you mean and I will take notes.

Come Along With Us by HackThePanda 2013-05-01T17:49:00

Interesting, my comment was sent twice. Good game wordpress
@nddrylliog I definitely should have put better instructions, probably be biggest regret outside of not having the dinosaur in the actual game. And alright, thank you, I've been needing to put more randomness in my games for a while, it hasn't become part of my style yet. Now that someone has said it I will definitely try harder at that :) Thank you again for the comment!

Vs. by KJScott 2013-04-30T22:16:00

I don't care what anyone says, this is a great game featuring great game design, catchy graphics and an awesome interpretation of the theme.

Life/Routine by lightnarcissus 2013-05-01T10:28:00

I love the message :D The gameplay was a bit confusing at first but once I got it it was pretty cool

Nerdogochi by tiffi 2013-04-30T20:15:00

Wow someone jipped the highscores, lol. None the less a pretty cool game :D

Nerdogochi by tiffi 2013-05-01T02:43:00

I just took look at it and tiffi it has nothing to do with being open source. Even if it weren't it would be easy enough to decompile it and see it's just an unencrypted post request to your website.

Huit by nddrylliog 2013-05-01T17:38:00

I really liked the style of graphics!

Spark by CNIAngel 2013-05-01T01:26:00

Perfect as always, my love

Seventh World Problems by N427 2013-04-30T19:14:00

Really love the theme interpretation

Leaf Me Alone by Claw 2013-04-30T18:54:00

Absolutely marvelous, really nice job :D
