LD46 — Keep it alive

Nekotchi by Devastus 2020-04-21T10:33:13Z

Very cute game! Great art, I like the tamagotchi choice! Easy to play and the cats needs are very well shown! Overall brilliant!

Save Satan by SimonTheCase 2020-04-21T11:49:07Z

I liked it! Mechanics used in progressive and interesting ways. Nice trance style music overall well done a good take on the theme!

Blown away by this one! SO DAMN GOOD, impressed you managed this in a couple of days! A very unique take on the theme!

Great job guys considering the time limit you managed to fit in a bunch of content! On level two I was treated to some insane disco lights if i went towards the boarder but smooth game play a simple enough objective! Nailed it!

It was fun with a cool look! The wolf never really seemed to bother me once he hit me he'd circle a few times, always enough time to get wood and throw it. But overall was fun! outline on the wood was a good choice!

NightLight by Jack McPherson 2020-04-21T11:30:20Z

@akadream not having the graphics problems you are at all. So that's odd. It also clearly says light at the bottom of the screen. Also there are giant sphere's emitting light in the game. So as much as I appreciate the feedback. Seems a little harsh.

King is not moving! by tapehead 2020-04-21T10:23:23Z

great look! Wish more chickens spawned great take on the theme! My only gripe was scrolling left to right was fast but up and down really really slow. Otherwise great job!

Firstly plague doctor was a brilliant choice, Love that aesthetic! Secondly that you managed to build essentially a detective game (notoriously hard to make) in just a few days is super impressive! So well done! With a bit more time and care for ui and making controls clear this could be even better!

Doctor Knapp by cyberfrank 2020-04-21T11:12:13Z

good job! Was hard to find the objects at first and the keys didn't feel natural for hand placement!(That could just be me though!) But cute art!

KEEP THE KING(DOM) ALIVE by Kevin H 2020-04-21T10:11:29Z

very much had fun. The goal is clearly keep the king alive but I had no idea what each action would result in. Other than that very funny! and with some tweaking I'm sure all issues could be easily addressed! Great job!

Feed me if you love me by veronicapereznoriega 2020-04-21T11:04:00Z

I laughed hard first time the plant ate a doughnut boy! it's hectic! Beautifully drawn and a little instruction on how to use the doughnut would make it a bit quicker to get into the fun as I had to leave the house to realise "OHH right it's bait haha!" Very little shop of horrors homage there so yeah great job team!!

Cannon Knight by Gonzalo Antuña 2020-04-21T10:41:32Z

controls could have been mapped to better keys, some sound would have made it feel more alive!

LD47 — Stuck in a loop

Rise and Shine by Riyroo 2020-10-06T16:24:41Z

That was a very intense loop guys! Well done! Took me longer than I'm proud to say to figure out some of the tasks haha. A good take on the loop!

Sad Knight by HumphreysMedia 2020-10-06T11:20:53Z

@mimir I thought I fixed that haha with the objectives. With movement you are right, unintentional sadly, just so much to programme in such a small space of time haha. I'll make sure it's fixed for the next build though thanks :) The pictures are friends of the team. I can understand how that might take you out of the horror a bit. Regardless thanks for playing and thanks for your kind words :).

Sad Knight by HumphreysMedia 2020-10-06T13:59:26Z

Hey @kevin-meissner Sorry you had issues with the game. The lag in the graveyard is caused by the terrain. I lowered the count and it ran ok on my end. But my pc is pretty high spec so that's an oversight on my end. So The goal of the game is to complete the objectives you can view by pressing tab. And you end the deathloop. With regards to defeating the enemies you can't. You can run that's it. So the theme was "Stuck in a loop" So we have the player stuck in this loop of running and dying unless they can complete the objectives. thus breaking the loop. Also thank you, was a bit of burn out at the end as I did all the programming so it's not as clean as it could've been with another day maybe. But thems the breaks haha. Thanks for playing though!

Life is Loop by frances 2020-10-06T16:30:57Z

This was a nice little idle game, interesting take on the loop! I liked the art and graphics! music was nice. My only take away an idle game like this is probably best enjoyed on mobile (Not an option for this of course haha) But keeping that in mind great job!

Oops Loops by Samshine 2020-10-06T16:14:54Z

I love this take on stuck in a loop!, great stop motion animations. Great sound design! Very impressed with the creativity from this take!
