I love these kinds of games. Well done! What I didn't completely understand: what does it mean that I used 0.08% of the last star?
I love the story. Damn I would be f--n pissed too. The gameplay was simple but well executed. I had some trouble getting the batteries. Played it a couple of times to get the optimum path. A fun game.
Nice idea and well executed. I love the background art - gives it a kind of grunge aesthetic. Played this for almost my whole lunchbreak. Having those little texts really gives it depth. And they are well written too.
Awesome 3D. I love it! The controls feel so nice and the gameplay loop is also tight. The aesthetics reminded me a bit of yeti hunter by vlambeer.
Great atmosphere. There is a lot of content for an LD game and the writing was very good.
Very nice and interesting game. My highscore was 370.
Love the photo feature on the accident report. Great game!
Hard but a lot of fun. I like the idea of free moving beams.
As a fellow LÖVE user I must write a comment: I know how hard it is to write a side-scrolling platformer game from scratch in 48 hours. Great efford! The jumping is still a bit floaty and it was hard for me get up the ledges sometimes. I had to slam myself into the wall and press jump to get up. Nice entry and good work. Keep it up!
I like the idea of collecting and feeding to keep the flame alive. The first stage is easy but then the difficulty spikes on stages two already. The sprites are nice pixel art and I like the graphics of the darkness appearing. The audio is a bit loud but gives good feedback to your actions. Great job on your (first?) compo entry!
Such a good game. Probably my favorite right now. Very interesting core mechanic. Throwing the axes is so satisfying. Great entry!
Wow. Found this while looking for games made with Löve. Amazing graphics and amazing use of the theme.
Lovely entry. It had replay value. Was curious enough to play it for some time to see what I ranks I could get.
Music: 5/5, Gamedesign: 5/5, Gfx: 5/5. Some really interesting puzzles and a lot of athmosphere here. Love it.
Loved every minute of it. The level design is really good and the enemies are also really interesting. Also exactly the right length for a LD game. Will recommend this as a superb example of a LD game. Probably in my Top 5 games of this LD. 5/5 Stars
Nice game. Hard as nails. I tried multiple times and failed. Got to the second screen and was killed through the hole every time. Checkpoints would be a nice convenience. Had a lot of fun with this one!
PS: You should still be able to change to compo on the entry page!
Nice to see you using Löve! Awesome idea, the rotating things could have been a little bit bigger but that's just me and my bad eyes. The descriptions were great - really inventive and cryptic. Had a lot of fun with this one. My highscore is only 206...
Awesome idea. After 'getting' the solution of a puzzle here there is always the execution part...where I fail miserably. Very interesting levels and I like the flying mechanic.
Hey Mvieira! Nice jumping game. I really liked the graphics. Is the background image made with minecraft? One small problem: Sometimes I get stuck on the edge of the platforms. Anyway, a solid entry!
Quite hard at first, but after I 'understood' the controls it was getting easier. Beautiful graphics for a LD game. The idea of matching shape and orbit is implemented in an interesting way. Only thing I would think about is capping the orbitalspeed to something more manageable so that you at least have the chance to match each new shape. If the speed gets too high matching becomes very difficult. Very nice LD game!
bad kitty!
I see what you did there
Awesome game! The warlock crushed me, every time. Impossible to win when he has >50 ATK ;) But loosing is fun and it is a nice alternative to streetfighter/fighting games for which I lack the reflexes.
A list of possible moves while you are inputting them could make it a bit more transparent. But still: great job! Love the game.
Fun game with pretty nice graphics! Do the guys you throw up ever come down again? ;)
Hey, this looks amazing. Love the long pier and the bird. Combat is hard but that's ok. Thick athmosphere and really nice sounds as well.
Amazing graphics and art! Really nice controls, too. The gameplay is a bit slow maybe but solid. First I thought this was dota with sheep :) Still a good game.
10/10 would shake again
Amazing and well designed game! I would love to have this with more level on my phone! Played through all the levels and they progression is really good. Had this "I'll just try it just once more" feeling and the frustration of super meat boy(which I mean as a good thing). Love it! Please more!
This is amazing! Love the writing and the overall tone of the game. Really good.
I like the idea! Had fun with it. Played it for at least 15 minutes. Took some time for me to figure out the wall climbing mechanic.
Things (or questions) that could make it even better: 1) Combos of headjumps give more points? 2) Pacing could be made faster with earlier aggression towards the player? 3) Wall jumping instead of wall climbing to gain height?
One of the best LD entries I played so far. The concept was great and I played for about an hour. Any chance for a OSX verson?
Any chance for a OSX version?
I'm pretty bad at this. My highscore was 37 :(
The idea was good and the controls were feelling nice. I hoped it would be longer but this fits the theme. Did not have any problems playing on OSX.
Great game had lots of fun and it fits the theme really well. More levels and a progression would have been nice. Some of the levels were too easy and one was really hard. But thats ok because the concept is great.
Btw. Your osx app seems to be incorrectly packaged.
Concept and execution is great. Love the music! Short and sweet.
Is it me or does Bill sound like Morty from Rick and Morty?
Very nice idea. I'm still trying to win against the AI but it's hard! Like the music and pixel graphics. Well done.
hosting seems to be down
sadly it crashes on osx shortly after start
Awesome idea! I love the graphics and the concept. The audio fits the game idea well.
the provided .love does not work and seems to be have changed after the deadline?
Excellent game! Reminded me of cook, serve, delicious. Hard but good!
I love everything about this!
Controls and feedback when hitting space bar would be nice. I could not figure out if there is a goal to this?
Love the concept! Had to die once until I found the editor, but that's not a problem :) Great idea
I love it! Great sound and great concept. Feels so good.
Very tight gameplay, liked it a lot! Great entry!
Had fun with kamehameha
It is quite hard. Mainly because of the jumping but I love the graphics! Great music and sound effects.
I like it, the controls felt great and the idea was good.
loved the music and the idea of soundzones
I was pasta.
The art is great and the music is sooo good! Where can I download the ost? :)
Awesome game, I really liked the combination of film and text. The sounds were perfectly attuned to the story. Loved the hedgehog!
Crashed on me (mountain lion) when I pressed a.
Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV)
Exception Codes: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS at 0x00000001cb0aadec
Very hard but I liked the idea. It is a bit frustrating that you have to start from the beginning if you die.
I really like the level design in this one. More levels please.
Love the idea! Always wanted to do something similar.
A small problem: I don't know why but it runs choppy but without any resource pressure.
If you provide a .love file, Linux and OSX folks could try your game too!
Excellent execution. Simple but powerful! I like.
I really dig the music! Amazing work for a compo entry. The game is hard but fun.
I also get a lot of graphical glitches on OSX.
Quality entry - as always. Sounds, music and feel are perfect. Especially the controls feel tight and balanced. The graphical effects like the bubbles look very very good.
But I'm just really bad at this game, so I might never see the end :(
Really liked this one. Two minor complaints:
- the triangles in another color to better distinguish them from the rectangles maybe?
- Highscore keeping would be nice so I can beat my own
Other than that I think this has a very nice level of polish und the design is excellent.
Nice game. A way to look at my highscores would be nice.
Perfect execution of a very good idea!
Those black things are stuff of nightmares. Good game but I got stuck without resources a few times.
So juicy, it drips.
Good one! Had lots of fun. The whole design and idea is very well executed.
I did not win.
Loved the music!
Screen stays gray on OSX? Any ideas why?
Almost the perfect LD game: fast and fun! Nice music, great graphics and the mechanic is simple but fun. Only cons: the movement might almost be a bit too fast and the levels are quite hard. Still: great game!
Somehow a really cool idea. Needs more different gameplay elements but it is fun. Keep at it!
I'm a huge sucker for the art and the feel, also the feel. Curvature in lazershots = nice!
Very interesting concept, but it might be a bit harmful for the left mousebutton ;)
Couldn't move the mouse (on OSX Mavericks). Any Idea?
It seemed like I couldn't go right? Or am I missing something?
Nice game and very nice graphics! Only one thing: The gems looked like underpants to me:D
I played this one through, and I really like the idea. A countdown in the beginning of the round would be good and I think I used some bugs to win. For example: Will full upgrades the last level was quite easy because you could just walk through the enemies.
Those graphics!
Links seem to be broken.
It's quite hard (and probably not meant to play with trackpad) but the concept is great! You should keep working on it!
That's a lot of vomit. (great game!)
I like the idea and the music is great. The combat is a problem but I like the graphics.
Liked the music! With some more levels this could be great.
Not a fan of the controls/physics in this one. Great graphics and ambience though.
Wow, that was hard. But a nice little fun game!
66446 points. Pretty nice game and the music fits fell with the graphics.
It feels like the final boss was the easiest. Fun stuff.
Had a similar concept in mind when I first heard the LD theme. Your execution is quite good! A more deterministic way of telling what items come next and where they go could make the game more complex (maybe). Nonetheless a fun little game.
Very chess-y game - I like it. An indicator to see if a piece can be moved or already was moved this round would be nice. Thumbs up strong idea.
Very good idea and execution. Found the movement of the ship a bit fiddly but I really liked the concept.
simple but fun little game!
The big stones are really unfair :(
I see great potential with this one.
Really fun little game.
5/5 would play again ;)
Great idea! A bit hard but very good.
I'm so bad at this :(
Reminds me of supercratebox :) Nice one.
Cool idea. The movement really was an issue. But still good for 48 hours!
Weird controls, but it is funny
I don't know why but it fun :)
Couldn't get this to run on MacOS :( Blank Window with music playing but no graphics.
I like the gameplay but it is hard. Nice one!
I laughed. A lot :) There should be a button to progress or something.
Nice graphics I really like it. Why can't the units go past other units of the same side?
Woah. This one has it all. Amazing game!
Epicly funny :D Real nice sandbox game.
Wow :D Really a funny entry. Good job.
Nice game idea. The audio was a bit annoying.
The 64 bit version crashed on me also. The x86 did work.
5/5 really good.
Great graphics! Solid game.
The graphics are great!
Also got the error that MSVCP100.dll is missing on my system.
This crashed on me, after a few minutes of playing(on windows), used the .love file.
both links are dead. 404 not found.
Almost shat my pants when I hit the first rock...that sound effect...
The music is great!
Those damn aliens again :)
It said 2 left, but I did not see any...might need a fix?
crashes on lion too
The graphics remind me of monochrome atari games. A bit too easy maybe.
Great concept! I agree that the grinding might be necessary, but different levels might solve that. Nice to see a good canvas/js game.
Slick graphics, very 'designery' and polished! Love the statistics and the mating sounds.
The graphics and controls are amazing. It also runs very fast, even on my laptop. Great game, how, on earth, did you make all this content in 48 hours?
Bach?
Love it! Great game.
fixed(?) resolution made it hard to see everything, movement ist awkward. Great graphics and gameplay!
really a nice concept and the difficulty is about right!
Suprisingly had fun with this one :)
I like the concept but it's requires some more work I think. Damn hard also.
can get a bit slow(performance) in fullscreen, but still great game!
fullscreen upscaling didn't look so good. Huge game, saw the devil!
The music is absolutely insane = i loved it.
Nicely done. Sadly, the music stopped after loosing one round.

Infuriating! I love it.
