LD31 — Entire Game on One Screen

Manic Depressive by isaque.picao.sanches 2014-12-11T12:12:00

Thanks. I'm planning change the game in a future update, but right now (during the judging process) it wouldn't be fair.
A bit more text giving more context to the mechanics, a warning to go back at the title screen and maybe a few more levels.

Manic Depressive by isaque.picao.sanches 2014-12-20T03:23:00

@Mincemeat
I didn't take offense at all. For better and for worse, everything you said is somewhat true. Keep in mind this is the 1.0v too, and I have some changes planned for the game, but at its core it won't change that much, it will still make you feel what's its meant to make the player feel.
Maybe a warning would indeed be appropriate; if another player makes this complain, I will add a disclaimer.
I did remove the 'fun' vote with that in mind. I personally don't suffer from chronic depression or bipolar disorder, as I mentioned in my postmortem, and the game doesn't feel as "heavy" to me. If you say it has such a powerful impact on you, that make me somewhat happy as an artist.
Again, I may have to add an disclaimer about this, but your feedback makes me happy nonetheless.
Thank you for your comment.

LD35 — Shapeshift

The Mysterious Shapeshifter by TheColorMan 2016-04-18T09:02:00

The screen is blank when the game starts.

princess, castle, etc by Steve | tacospice 2016-04-18T09:18:00

I liked the main mechanic, it's a shame you didn't explore it at all.

The Matter Realm by Nomys_Tempar 2016-04-18T09:50:00

I didn't get it :/

Endless Runner by isaque.picao.sanches 2016-04-18T09:34:00

Thanks :)
In this LID I wanted to experiment with progression and teaching mechanics implicitly.

LD36 — Ancient Technology

A Guillotine by isaque.picao.sanches 2016-08-30T12:19:00

@Geckoo1337 thank you :)

A Guillotine by isaque.picao.sanches 2016-08-30T14:17:00

@kfischer_okarin
:)

@AnaglyphCoding you could say it's a text-based exploration game, navigation is the mechanic, making sense of it is both a puzzle and your goal, and beginning somewhat at the middle of the text gives you an initial choice: going up or down.

A Guillotine by isaque.picao.sanches 2016-08-30T18:03:00

it's not fiction, but it's also not factual. I could say it's one of the best headspace self-portraits I think I've made yet.
the fact that it moved you that much, that it made you so unconfortable an anxious - as it is meant to - means it worked as an art piece for you, and that makes me happy.

A Guillotine by isaque.picao.sanches 2016-08-30T18:09:00

thank you for your concern. but at this point, even if I wanted, not even Jesus could save me. as Yahweh Himself would say: I am who I am. I've made peace with that.

LD38 — A Small World

Saldanha by isaque-picao-sanches 2017-04-26T13:38:23Z

just run the game again :) it may surprise you

Saldanha by isaque-picao-sanches 2017-04-26T21:58:44Z

thanks. it's a rythm game ==> you should shoot only when the screen goes black. it's very hard to get a good score, you shouldn't listen or see the screen, you should just feel the game and flow with it.

Saldanha by isaque-picao-sanches 2017-04-26T21:59:16Z

anyway, thanks :)

Saldanha by isaque-picao-sanches 2017-05-03T15:22:16Z

@smeax we're glad you liked it.

PURITY by jantunes 2018-12-04T15:09:06Z

@kiisuk we'll be fixing the sound in a post-jam version probably.

PURITY by jantunes 2018-12-04T15:11:22Z

@jamesdude it doesn't, it was a design problem that we're still thinking on how to solve actually. we either give info on the culprit, and the whole game collapses as a deduction-puzzle, or we don't and you always have 2/3 prob of failling. if you have any suggestions, we'd be glad to hear some.

PURITY by jantunes 2018-12-04T15:12:27Z

@notlivingpool we're working on that ^^ but maybe only post-ludum

PURITY by jantunes 2018-12-04T18:01:02Z

@earlybard it was hard to convey such a weird setting without the text, we tried to minimize it as much a possible. the first iterations had like 200% of what is now in this version.

PURITY by jantunes 2018-12-04T18:22:22Z

@shubart @vlad-ilisan @aphid98

thank you for the feedback :)

PURITY by jantunes 2018-12-17T09:24:25Z

@babyking it depends on how your definitions. a big inspiration for making this game for instance is The Handmaid's Tale, which is a story about violence against women, and which wouldn't work thematically otherwise. would you say all depictions of violence against women are by themselves sexist? would you say The Handmaid's Tale is sexist?

we thought the game wouldn't make sense thematically if it included both sexes.

PURITY by jantunes 2018-12-17T09:25:59Z

@dunin @morg @blizary thx :)

PURITY by jantunes 2018-12-17T09:27:35Z

@falak @mtanton we're thinking of using the same algoritm to make a more polished deduction game in the future.

PURITY by jantunes 2018-12-31T10:08:25Z

*** DISCLAIMER VERY IMPORTANT***

@Everyone **We just uploaded a post-jam version of the game, with a re-design of the entire audio**.

There's still 9h to rate games. If you're still voting, please rate the **jam version** and not the **post-jam version**.

If that's not the case, feel free to give us feedback on this new version as well. Thank you :)

By the Sword by wilsk 2020-04-22T10:40:41Z

congratz for trying to create something that really challenges yourself, instead of doing something safe it takes a lot of courage, and we as game jammers should incentivize more people to do the same

WTF incredible solid work, dude - you rock :D

Mirror by isaque-picao-sanches 2020-04-22T08:55:26Z

thanks @jantunes it's indeed one of the harshest games we've ever made - because of multiple design choices - but it was done so deliberately, as it wouldn't provoke the emotions we were looking for otherwise

Mirror by isaque-picao-sanches 2020-04-22T09:29:28Z

hi @curtis-pelissier we actually had implemented key holding and dis-implemented it, because it went against the concept of the game. I totally agree with you that it's a terrible feature from a gamefeel perspective - but we actually intended too sacrifice feel-design and attempt to capture something a bit different

Mirror by isaque-picao-sanches 2020-04-22T17:23:07Z

@ballipilla @koljam @thecze @vladadamm would you be interested in us making a more exhaustive walkthrough? it sort of defeats the point of the game, but it might help some players finish it, which is also the point of it after all

Mirror by isaque-picao-sanches 2020-04-22T18:16:30Z

@thecze For those who don't mind being spoiled, here's an initial guide to get you going to the start of the game Whenever you die / are born, you will randomly spawn in one of the red circles. Your goal is in the blue arrow's direction.

spoil.png

Mirror by isaque-picao-sanches 2020-04-22T18:51:59Z

@thecze think of the glyphs on the screen as colors. everytime you are reborn, you will be given a new set of eyes. therefore, you will see everything with new colors. everytime you start your journey, you will be disoriented, confused - your eyes will eventually adapt, you will eventually start parsing not only what you see, but what you don't see. as you'll become more aware of your surroundings, you will also be more aware of yourself. at some point, you'll start valuing your life more and more, and after a certain point you'll start valuing it less and less.
