LD26 — Minimalism

Fortuitous by Follett 2013-04-29T14:36:00

The overall design looks interesting but unfortunately the game's pretty unforgiving - had a lot of trouble getting beyond the first group of blocks. Would be great to try a version where the blocks don't fall out from under you so fast, or at least one at a time so you know they're coming :)

Gimme back my keys by pinkmonkeyhead 2013-05-04T06:28:00

A pretty original concept and with a nice difficulty curve :)

shon by bitnenfer 2013-05-04T06:19:00

Nice look and gameplay - reminds me a little of my game :)

Fallen Outside by DDDBOMBER 2013-04-29T14:19:00

Nice game :) I did feel the movement was a bit difficult though.

Feint Signal by brxtr 2013-05-04T06:16:00

Really nicely polished, and good audio - it does remind me of Super Hexagon though!

XYZ by ataxkt 2013-05-04T05:53:00

Great style and execution on the theme, good job! :)

MINUS by rubna 2013-05-05T08:21:00

It's pretty hard, mostly because of the controls though - I like the choice of colours :)

Pink Haze by jwin 2013-05-04T06:11:00

Was actually pretty fun once I worked it out - it's a bit hard at first, but otherwise great job! :)

MONO by timtipgames 2013-05-04T11:51:00

Simple, but the game has a great style. Nice! :)

Join by Perry 2013-04-29T10:05:00

The colors work well together, and the audio too - really nice, and clever :)

Cpt. Sqrjaw by vapgames 2013-05-05T13:27:00

The animation and physics were handled really well - it does get hard *really* fast though! Great work :)

Hiddensquares by Tozy 2013-04-29T09:57:00

This is a really interesting concept, great work! The puzzles are a little tricky, but I enjoyed it.

Clickator by Alexandre Szybiak 2013-04-29T00:01:00

Haha - nice idea, and style! :)

Pixl by JaviCepa 2013-04-29T10:14:00

I dig the style of this game - would be perfect without those seams, but hey easier said then done right?

Box's World by avidgamerNino 2013-05-04T06:38:00

Nice job! Took me a long while to work out the beginning but it felt rewarding when I did :)

grow. by hughsk 2013-04-29T06:21:00

Yeah, you guys are right that the controls are a bit wonky - wish I could switch it out but too late now I guess! Thanks for the feedback :)

Also: there's issues with the game not loading when your browser doesn't support audio, which I'll get to fixing tonight.

grow. by hughsk 2013-05-04T04:01:00

Thanks for the kind words, rxi - that's exactly what I was going for. Hoping for a more "show, don't tell" kind of experience. I'll have to give you and the others' games a try!

Turns out there was a pretty significant bug in the controls when using the arrow keys, but not WASD. This is fixed now, so if anyone had trouble before and reads this you should give it another shot :)

mal by shama 2013-04-29T09:30:00

The post-processing effects work a treat, haha it freaked me out too.

We Dreamers by stevejohnson 2013-05-05T05:21:00

Really interesting, great to see an entry like this :)

Dream Fishing by Sophie Houlden 2013-04-29T14:58:00

This game has a great style! Lots of little details which work really well :)

COLORFORM by torcado 2013-04-29T11:32:00

Pretty difficult at first, but nice overall :) Would be great if there were a way to skip the opening tutorial!

Short Fall by Arowx 2013-04-28T18:10:00

Just a heads up: Macs have pretty sensitive mice, making the game really hard to control - looks interesting though! :)

m by cadin 2013-05-04T05:44:00

Really nice concept there - didn't take long to pick up, and a nice use of the theme!

Moonshot by kurrik 2013-05-04T06:00:00

Interesting that it's built with Go - would be nice to have some indication of "health" when you're moving through the red areas, but otherwise I enjoyed it :)

Auraline by Julian Ceipek 2013-05-04T06:47:00

Really nice vibe from this game - wish I had a rift to experience it fully!

LD27 — 10 Seconds

Ochre by ben 2013-08-26T15:01:00

This has a really nice look to it - hope you get the chance to flesh out the gameplay post-compo! My favourite game so far :)

Gas and Air! by tripleVisionGames 2013-08-26T10:20:00

Amazing job with the art in this one :)

Solitude by rxi 2013-08-26T09:17:00

Great aesthetic!

Swervv by Dell 2013-08-26T13:41:00

Nice work on the animation :)

hurry! by hughsk 2013-08-26T03:29:00

Hey Vasileiadis, unfortunately I only had the time to write code that works in Chrome! I'll have a look later and see if it's something simple - I might be able to fix it, thanks for the heads up :)

The Village of Lost Time by EpaceGames 2013-08-26T10:17:00

Really fun! Great job getting all of that together in 48 hours :)

Proletarian Ninja X by deepnight 2013-08-26T13:21:00

Very difficult, but amazing graphics!

Anti-Grav Drive by bnhw 2013-08-26T13:27:00

Surprisingly addictive :)

Test Subject No. 14756 by talecrafter 2013-08-26T13:48:00

Just a heads up: the fonts aren't working on my Mac. Worked it out none the less :)

MYHORIZON by markengley 2013-08-26T13:54:00

Very nice background effect :)
