ROLL! by Srynetix 2024-10-14T19:00:56Z ♥ 2

Nice! I like that the game wasn't trying to be too complex, instead it had a few mechanics that it combined and that worked well together. I enjoyed the physics-based movement and launching my character with huge speed when I absorbed the others.

I like the graphics, it's a refreshing game gameplay-wise as well. There are a lot of things packed into the game which makes it a bit hard to figure out at first.

I do think you're really stretching the jam rules: "Certain Bug Fixes are allowed. You can’t add new features, but if something broke or didn’t work correctly as you were finishing up, you can fix this after the deadline." There are several items on your list that don't fit this criterion. It's obviously a gray zone but it feels like you are giving yourself extra time this way.

I think this is the first truly 3D Ludum Dare game I've played, cool! The camera is confusing, as others have noted. If you fixed the camera and maybe added more kinds of enemies, there is definitely potential!

Huh, I only found out through the comments that foraging can make you lose/gain people. Reminds me a bit of Faster Than Light in its combination of strategic decisions + real-time action. Maybe having more upgrade dimensions/decisions you can take during daylight would help replayability.

I like the idea and the store radio's quips, though I do wish the gameplay mechanics reflected the game's idea more, since now I could just replace Karen sprites with zombies and it would still make sense gameplay-wise. But maybe that's the idea :)

DEATH AND TAXES by Gus Goucher 2022-04-05T15:36:45Z ♥ 1

I won! I was really impressed by how polished the game is. The graphics, sounds and even the time indicator are all really fancy. The difficulty level is set reasonably; I didn't get it on the first try but finished the game on the third attempt. That being said, there could be more to the gameplay.

There's a few small things I noticed: - the document counter persists between runs, so that makes level 1 really easy once you've lost once. - I wish the intro was skippable. - At first, I thought the baddies would kill me and only realized later that they steal the documents

I couldn't figure out how to run the game on Mac - I tried making "Rewind" executable and running it through right click -> Open, but then I run into "libhostfxr.dylib" cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified.
