LD46 — Keep it alive

Più, a bird song by Ekilibr 2020-04-23T19:49:43Z

Beautiful graphics and music, loved the relaxing atmosphere too. I was struggling a bit to figure out where to go after I found two of the birds though.

Super B saves The City by seano 2020-04-20T17:14:07Z

One of the best games I've played! Absolutely love the aesthetic and the gameplay was solid too. Aiming shots felt a bit unintuitive I think because there were no diagonally facing sprites. Otherwise, amazing entry.

Hostage Escape by Maksym 2020-04-25T12:23:27Z

Probably the most polished game I've played this jam! Great visuals and music, the puzzles were fun to solve and it was really clear how to play the game. I especially liked the transparent versions of the hostages that ran along the path so I could see what would happen before pressing run. Great work!

Last Hope by Iluvatar 2020-04-20T13:22:46Z

Wow, this was amazing! Beautiful pixel art and amazing atmosphere. I managed to get the best outcome first try too!

Rampage by PhilStrahl 2020-04-20T12:14:12Z

Great game! I like the way you approached the theme. The music is great too!

Gino the Neutrino by Dark_Power 2020-05-12T14:38:07Z

This is very cute, and I really like the educational spin. I think Gino moves up and down a bit too slowly for my liking. Really fun game though, great work!

Bear Naked Polar Party by stuckne1 2020-04-24T11:20:35Z

Really fun idea, but I didn't really get how I was supposed to keep the party going. My party died after around 7 or 8 hours every time. A tutorial would have been great!

Sci-Fi Lumber by munkkeli 2020-04-20T08:13:49Z

It's a really interesting idea with a cute visual style. I like the strategy it takes to prioritise either wood or enemies. It would be nice if there was a bit more visual feedback on the enemies and the trees when you're damaging them!

Kaoamaru Kaiju by SplitPainter 2020-04-25T11:39:20Z

Really great atmosphere and love the PS1 aesthetic. Unfortunately it doesn't really have gameplay but a fun experience nonetheless! Nice work!

Heavy Petting by WongKongPhooey 2020-04-20T09:29:45Z

Really nice animation style - love the retro feel! Movement felt a bit clunky but otherwise great stuff.

Slimekeep by BenBonk 2020-04-20T12:27:05Z

I think the gameplay is pretty fun and the twist on the Keep It Alive theme is interesting! The slime and ground colour are exactly the same so a bit more contrast between the two would be nice!

Can't Control Cage by Shay Cichocki 2020-04-24T11:15:18Z

I enjoyed the humour and the art is great. Unfortunately I didn't really have any idea what to do. A tutorial would have been helpful

MegaCorn - Strategy / Economy Simulator by KittRangers 2020-04-21T16:05:56Z

Art is great and the game is very polished! The UI and sound really fits in with the game setting.

Save Dave by Kirbloid 2020-04-20T16:53:30Z

I like the contrasting themes here it works really well, and the artwork is great! It would be nice if there was a bit more visual feedback so I know if i've hit an enemy, but overall nice work!

Stay home Gramps by jxavier 2020-04-20T15:50:47Z

Nice cute and simple game. I like the chilled feel. I also found the bug where shaking the house gives you extra points.

Primed by gimblll 2020-04-20T16:01:26Z

The polish here is incredible. Couldn't stop laughing at the jokes either haha. Great job!

Not Clowning Around! by Wilson Taylor 2020-04-20T00:16:07Z

This is so hard but a lot of fun and very funny!

Tears of Coffee by Milestone Games 2020-04-20T12:51:05Z

Love the art, sound and polish! Made me feel like I was really in a coffee shop haha.

Memes Never Die by James_7777 2020-04-20T08:50:43Z

@gerbo Thank you so much! Let's just say music isn't my forte haha.

Cable Guy by sorko 2020-04-20T11:55:59Z

I love the physics of the cable and the way it moves around haha. Very fun. The jump was a bit clunky but otherwise it all works very well!

Chicky's Delivery Service by Jelle Vermandere 2020-04-20T09:47:28Z

I love pretty much everything about this game, amazing job! If I had to find one criticism it's that the controls were a bit too sensitive. The best game I've played so far!

The Lightwielder - Ludum Dare 46 by 1StepCloser 2020-04-27T09:38:30Z

Incredible graphics and atmosphere! Loved the music and sound effects. I wasn't sure what I was doing when all the black shadows appeared and my attacks didn't seem to do anything to them. Would have liked it to be a bit clearer what was going on. Otherwise, great stuff!

Le LÉGUME by OhMyGuigui 2020-04-20T10:52:15Z

Great art style and presentation! Very hard to learn though for a first time player.

Toasted Dreams by HakunaSoft 2020-05-12T14:44:03Z

Really cute art! I thought the game was a bit too hard as the gap between rows of enemies was very small, so it required really precise input timing to avoid damage.

Skip A Beat by Zyger 2020-04-20T18:34:53Z

Very nice aesthetic, love the amount of polish that's gone into this!

Be THE DOG by ul0n 2020-04-20T18:45:44Z

Very cute game! Love the amount of polish put in and the idea of dogs protecting their human is pretty funny!

LD48 — Deeper and deeper

Descentris by PhilStrahl 2021-04-27T17:01:50Z

I really like the concept! It took me a couple tries to realise how the game actually worked, but once I got the hang of it it really was a "blast". The polish was nice and I liked the added touch of the music getting more intense the deeper I got. Only improvement I would suggest would be to add a bit more kick when placing the blocks and using bombs, just to really get me more immersed in the game.

Deep Cover by Silas Reinagel 2021-04-29T16:54:46Z

I enjoyed the dialogue options, the art is great and the whole game is ridiculously polished. Amazing job! P.s. Loving the P5 vibes!

The plot chickens by JPiolho 2021-04-26T21:42:21Z

The presentation is beautiful!! Just loading it up and seeing the title screen and hearing the music made me smile. It was a bit hard to know what to do at times, though.

Going Down by omer1615 2021-04-29T16:45:20Z

Really like the unique gameplay design, and the music was top notch! Although I found the graph editing a bit confusing at first and quite clunky. Great job!

Dating and Boxing by Phoenix Fireflower 2021-04-27T17:26:29Z

This was my favourite game so far, I loved it!! It was really satisfying to win the bonus match, and once I got the hang of it the punching and dodging felt quite fluid. I enjoyed the art direction too, great work!

The Golden Saucisse by BrokenMatcha 2021-04-27T16:50:32Z

The art is very cute, definitely my favourite part of the game! I managed to pick up the sausage, but I wasn't sure what to do after that, if I had to do anything. If I had to suggest an improvement, I'd say make it a bit clearer what's going on to the player.

LD49 — Unstable

Tama Town by MaggardJosh 2021-10-14T20:24:21Z

The particle effects and level transitions were really nice, the controls were unique and the whole game gave off a very chill vibe. Though it did make me feel a bit motion sick too.

Sir BaLancelot by FabDynamic 2021-10-14T20:00:11Z

Good stuff! The music was great, and I enjoyed reading the story on each level. I did find it a bit too easy to reach the end, but on the whole, good job!

Unstable Cargo by N.O. Games 2021-10-15T21:08:03Z

Nice idea, the story in the letters was a nice touch too! I also liked how the music changed when I finished a level. The game did seem to bug out sometimes for me though, where I couldn't move some of the objects.

Unstable Prison by Barrier 2021-10-14T20:04:04Z

Great mood and atmosphere! Although I did struggle to find my way around after finding the first orb.

Steady Grounds by jsloth 2021-10-14T20:41:50Z

Great graphics, presentation, and some fun levels to boot! Great work.

Volcano BoB by obscure 2021-10-14T20:36:15Z

Interesting take on the theme! The ui was a bit messed up for me though, so it was hard for me to tell if I was doing the right thing.

Portal Rescue by Vimlark 2021-10-15T21:10:33Z

A really interesting sort of Angry Birds + Pong hybrid, nice work.

Tower of Tilt by James_7777 2021-10-14T20:14:24Z

@cagibi @barrier @maggardjosh @fabdynamic Thanks for playing! I really appreciate all your feedback. Seems like the game is definitely in need of a tutorial!

Warhead Stroll by cagibi 2021-10-14T20:07:19Z

Great music and art! The dog is too cute, and I love the idea behind the game! Insanely polished too, amazing job!

Destructo by JPGFG 2021-10-15T21:01:22Z

I like the graphics and the system was quite fun to use. I felt it was lacking a player movement animation, which made the movement a bit jarring, but other than that, a really great job that has lots of potential!

Critical Error by JayJack 2021-10-14T20:29:44Z

Nice animations and cute aesthetic. It felt a bit weird without a jump button, but you made it work! I like the unique take on the unstable theme, good job!

Uncertain Orbits by Malcolm 2021-10-15T20:56:55Z

Really cool concept, I loved it! I managed to finish in 30 attempts. The physics felt nice and it was really satisfying to pull off a 2-planet gravity assist. Only thing it needs is some music!

LD50 — Delay the inevitable

Last Lord of the Edge by daniel 2022-04-04T12:43:17Z

Really cool game! The animations were super nice, blocking the projectiles combined with using the sword felt quite satisfying. Nice job!

Run Do by nervous-composers 2022-04-04T21:14:06Z

Yeah it says I need a password to play...

The Sea Won't Stop by m11 2022-04-04T16:56:03Z

Nice and simple, I enjoyed the funny dialogue, too! Some sound effects would have been the icing on the cake!

Don't Let Them Sit There by MrEvilGuy 2022-04-04T18:21:20Z

The graphics have charm and I like the homemade audio. I found the ui a bit cumbersome to use, though. Overall solid entry!

Piggy Pileup by candlesan 2022-04-04T08:04:29Z

Really nicely done! It's a nice simple mechanic that's been polished to the extreme. I thought it was a bit easy to keep the game going by spelling 3-letter words, otherwise great work!

All Will Be Dust by Matt Heinrich 2022-04-04T21:58:07Z

Really nice sprites and a fitting atmosphere thanks to the lighting! A sound effect when shooting an enemy would have been a nice addition, to add some impact to the hits.

The Subtle Hourglass by Eli Delventhal 2022-04-04T12:27:25Z

The web version seems to have a build error...

Zmrztani by Kusaihana 2022-04-04T18:15:29Z

Nice work considering it was made in 6 hours! Sound effects + music would have been nice but are understandable omissions given the time constraints! One suggestion would be the game speed could have been a bit faster since I found myself gaining money quite slowly. Overall, solid entry!

Neon City by Sozey 2022-04-04T17:57:19Z

Really nice graphics! The controls were pretty tricky, though which made it hard to control the tank. Otherwise nice work!

Merge Getaway by glitchman 2022-04-04T12:34:28Z

Really cool idea! I really like the car merging mechanic. The graphics are clean and the music works well. There were times where I felt like the car was slowing down and I wasn't really sure how to get it to speed up again, which led to me getting caught. On the whole though, really great, especially for a compo game!

Extremely Exteme Sports by kuviman 2022-04-04T18:27:17Z

The visual are cute and charming, love it. The controls were nice and responsive and I liked the different costumes you could wear. The fact that you made it online is doubly impressive! Great work!

Don't Touch It! by KirKami 2022-04-04T08:12:33Z

Very nice take on the theme! Nice, simple and polished with some nice animations and atmosphere. I thought the difficulty could have ramped up a bit quicker though, as it was a bit slow at the start.

Ice-olation by badoomtch 2022-04-04T12:20:52Z

Nice idea, I can see a lot of potential! The graphics have charm and the music was quite fitting. I struggled to get the fishing mechanic to work though, not sure if it was a bug or if I was just doing something wrong.

Tree loves Sun by AppoxGames 2022-04-04T12:24:21Z

Really nice visuals and animations! The music added to an overall calming atmosphere. The growing of the tree felt quite slow, though, I kept feeling like I wanted to speed it up!

My Girlfriend Wants a PUPPY!! by James_7777 2022-04-05T20:40:34Z

@yusovv Now that you mention it, it did cross my mind during development. Definitely something I'll consider more next time, thanks!

5 More Minutes by Sam Horner 2022-04-03T23:02:14Z

Excellent work bro!

Unknowable by Briibot 2022-04-05T18:39:01Z

Really nice art! The game looked great and the movement worked well. Unfortunately I wasn't really sure what I was supposed to do!

Baggy & Maggy by Revetoon 2022-04-05T12:16:30Z

Really nice art, very cute - I love the characters! The achievements popping up were pretty cool too! The swinging on the logs was quite hard to do though, and I struggled to get very far, maybe some kind of auto-lock-on for the swinging would have been a good addition. Overall a solid jam game, nice job!

Planet Saver by PashaLoban 2022-04-04T08:21:53Z

Cute game + art! Like others have said it needs a bit more polish, and maybe another mechanic to add some variety, but I like the concept!

NAP GUARDIAN by nethead 2022-04-04T19:48:29Z

This game just oozes quality! The amount of polish is insane, the SFX and soundtrack are great, and the more powerups I got the more satisfying it got to kill the enemies in one hit and watch the coins fly out. Only thing I would say is it took me a good minute to figure out I had to press the enter key to advance the dialogue at the start. Amazing work!

No Match by Peche et Tradition 1867 2022-04-04T21:30:23Z

This is so good! Such a unique take on the theme. The presentation along with the music and sfx puts together a really nice polished game. One of my favs, nicely done!

RIG WRECKENING by WhyNot 2022-04-04T21:42:42Z

Nice graphics + presentation! I managed to get 12 coins! The camera sensitivity was kinda crazy though, so a sensitivity option would have been a good addition.

ENDURACE - Drift Or Die by Phillip Scott 2022-04-05T20:35:34Z

Like others have said, this game is really cool! I like the graphics and smashing into the other cars was quite fun. I did find the car was a bit too hard to control (although maybe that was the idea). Great job for making this in only 72hrs!

Gail VS Snail by Matthewsworld 2022-04-05T12:08:48Z

Really satisfying to play, with the tricks and grinding. I really got a sense of speed and it was fun to try and pull off tricks when I was going so fast. The tutorial at the start was a nice touch, too. One suggestion would be to add a couple more types of trick so the gameplay has a bit more variety. Overall, really nice work!

Bomb Over by Lucy Lu 2022-04-05T20:26:55Z

Nice game, simple but effective! It's very polished, and the leaderboards are a nice touch too. Good work!

Study Breaks 📚 by Puree Adventure 2022-04-04T00:02:05Z

Really nice game! I love the art style and music, and the mini-games were nice and intuitive. Great work!

Happy Piggy Farm by TomatoOmelet 2022-04-04T22:07:56Z

Really nice take on the theme! The simple mechanic is executed well, and I like the results screen at the end of each day with the little animations. At times I thought the days felt a bit long, so maybe they could have been shortened a little. Overall great job!

Impending Doom by Castitatis 2022-04-04T08:26:49Z

Nice work! Really like the energy system - the generate energy button ensures I always have something to do and I like the upgrade progression. The art is great, too. Well done!!

Rest In Pieces by Eson97 2022-04-04T21:20:23Z

Love the art and atmosphere! I wasn't really sure where the police were, so it was hard to figure out how to avoid them.

LD55 — Summoning

Ritual of Ribbit by manabreak 2024-04-15T08:37:18Z

The intro is so good! Really well polished game and the music is quality. One piece of feedback is that when I died I had to wait through the intro sequence again, when I really wanted to get back in the action.

Path of Aratron by nusan 2024-04-17T15:43:22Z

Really cool, took me a second to figure out how to play but after that it turned out to be a really interesting mechanic. The art is awesome too. Nice work!

Fruit Punch by hunttis 2024-04-15T11:22:14Z

It took me a while to figure out how the button timing actually worked, but once I did it was fun! The graphics are nice and the sfx are really funny. Nice work!

Devotion - A fairytale by daandruff 2024-04-15T15:15:10Z

The art and graphics are amazing! Along with the ambient sound effects and moody music it really immersed me. Love it, great work!

Dimension Duck by gemcc 2024-04-15T08:19:21Z

Really nice polished game! Love the graphics and the intro was funny. I thought the duck movement was a bit slow, and when I entered the second room there were so many enemies I couldn't avoid them. Overall nice work!

Bean and Brew by RunicPixels 2024-04-16T12:02:39Z

I think this has gotta be my favourite game I've seen so far! I love every bit about the graphics, and the gameplay is fun too! Lots of potential for interesting ways the summoning mechanic could be used. Really nice work!!

Graveyard Shift: Skeleton Dad Simulator by mrVentures 2024-04-15T11:17:05Z

Really interesting take on the theme! I thought the VN portion was really well polished. The scales gave the game a cool dynamic. I thought it was a bit hard to figure out how moving between the different platforms worked, and the house navigation could have been a bit clearer. Overall nice work!

Duck Invasion by MetaGen 2024-04-15T18:33:23Z

Nice idea, I thought the cannon was a bit hard to control, so it was hard to shoot the ducks. I liked the music, nice job!

Deckmancer by The1 2024-04-15T11:38:45Z

Really nice and polished game! The sound effects are nice and crunchy and it was really satisfying picking up all the blue mana particles. I think it would have been good to have a bit more variety with the enemy and card options. Overall nice work!

SUMMonDICE by koro.games 2024-04-18T08:36:33Z

So satisfying to see the dice fall and all the numbers add up! Really nice graphics too, loved it.

Servant of Lord Doof by rainybyte 2024-04-17T16:19:30Z

Fun game! I love the voice lines. I think it would be useful if there was some kind of indicator on the screen telling you the direction of the item you need to pick up.

The Great Chicken Sacrifice by 1studio 2024-04-15T11:06:07Z

The art is really nice! In terms of visuals it was nicely polished. When I was playing the chickens eventually got stuck and my score just kept increasing indefinitely, so it just became a matter of how long I could wait. I think music and sfx would really add to it too.

Ecaroh's Mecharoh by goodwincek 2024-04-15T11:28:37Z

I think this is the best looking game I've seen so far! It's insanely polished and the inclusion of a tutorial was super useful. I couldn't really figure out if there was a real way to aim the electrons, they just seemed to fly around randomly which made it hard for me to progress. Overall really nice work though!

Salmoning by woona 2024-04-16T09:11:53Z

Really fun (and funny) game! Really nicely polished too - the ambient sound effects really added to the vibe. Was super satisfying to find the solutions. Nice work!

Crazy Court Summons by MistaGiggles 2024-04-16T10:33:15Z

Love the graphical style, and it's a nice solid game! I thought the car was a little hard to control, and having to switch between reverse and forward was a little finicky. But overall really good, nice work!

The Bread Soceress Panini! by Aly Name 2024-04-16T11:56:31Z

Really nice game! The puzzle mechanics are pretty interesting with a lot of potential for growth. Would love to see it with music and sfx.

GO GET IT, JEEVES! by dozabie 2024-04-15T18:41:11Z

Really fun idea and take on the theme. I really felt like I was Jeeves running around serving my boss - nice job!

Summoner Showdown by Caz Creates Games 2024-04-16T07:44:17Z

Nice simple game, congrats on your first ever jam entry! I picked the heaven side, but it ended up just being a bit too easy with the hell enemies barely reaching my side. I think with a couple extra unit types to add more depth, it could be even better!

Super Pal Summoner! by Meepster 2024-04-15T15:11:49Z

It's a cute game, I love the art style! The gameplay I think is a good start, but it was bit clunky when it came to checking combos and placing the tiles. If that was improved, along with maybe a bit more kick when placing tiles or completing combos, then there's definitely a lot of potential! Nice work!

Summon Cats by tinyfinn 2024-04-15T18:29:37Z

Cute!!! Loved the drawings.

Akino's Dungeon by Risminator 2024-04-15T08:24:54Z

I agree with the others that it's super difficult! I found the enemies were maybe a bit too fast, and it was kinda hard to find the objectives. The graphics are really nice though, especially that main menu background!

BAG OF FLESH by spookyrobloxman999 2024-04-15T18:37:05Z

Great game! The music and graphics worked really nicely. I think the camera was a little stiff, which made it hard to see what was going on at times. Regardless, nice work!

Jury Summons - When Duty Calls by Warren Fisher 2024-04-15T08:04:31Z

Really fun take on the theme! The music is hilarious and really fit the mood of the game. All the character art is really cute too! Like some others have mentioned, moving through all of the menus is a bit fiddly, and it would have been nice to be able to check my client's info again after starting the questioning. Overall really nice!

Farmer Survivor by Pupirka 2024-04-15T16:30:06Z

It's an interesting take on the vampire survivors style genre, the art is really cute too! It's good, and I think with a bit more polish it could be great! Things like more animations, sfx, particle effects, feedback when taking damage etc. Overall really nice work, especially considering it's your first jam!

LD59 — Signal

The Hunt for Red April by XeduR 2026-04-20T17:45:38Z

Really nice graphics and concept! Super immersive. The submarine did feel a little bit slow though compared to the enemy ships. Overall nice work!

ECHOMAZE by pipetto 2026-04-21T07:47:19Z

I really like the vibe and the little animations were a nice touch! I ended up just using the minimap to navigate which like IndigoWolf said felt a little like it detracted from the main mechanic. The time limit also felt a little bit strict. Overall though really nice work!

Glarble's Journey to Home-Ownership by Laura-Swift 2026-04-20T16:06:34Z

Really nice and polished game, I love the transitions between the different screens. The dialogues and planet destroying animations were also great, and the signal mechanic was nicely integrated. Although I was a bit unsure on how to figure out which planets had cows on. Nice work!
