LD40 — The more you have, the worse it is

Dipsomaniac by Junber 2017-12-07T22:22:15Z

Haha I love how the car causes as much damage as walking to a bin :^) Cool idea for a game though, I didn't drink along but I liked the music and the art, the walking animation was particularly good, nice :)

Aurora by AkirAssasin 2017-12-05T14:09:10Z

Loved it. Definitely the best one I have played so far, loved how relaxing it is, great :)

Innocuous Match-3 Emoji Game by TowerHufham 2017-12-05T22:53:10Z

I have no idea what just happened but I love emojis :thinking:

Farming Sim LD40 by pebkac 2017-12-07T22:46:08Z

Idle games always got a place in my heart

Hunt Together by Gao Ming 2017-12-05T22:41:55Z

I love the scuttling sounds, and I thought my game had bugged and the fly hadn't appeared, until I realised the world was 3d! Loved the text, looks so cute :D

Jazzy Beats by Moski 2017-12-05T22:34:25Z

Really good game, loving the description too "punch them so hard they become your fans.", maybe that's what we should all do? Really liked the art style on this as well, good game guys :D

I HAVE MORE by kiv 2017-12-05T22:55:49Z

No idea what happened :D

Slightly annoying traffic by JOrbits 2017-12-05T09:48:17Z

Awesome game! Love the art style and quickly gets well out of control

A Chore Too Far by MattDahEpic 2017-12-07T22:32:40Z

As the first comment said, really reminded me of StickRPG which I played a ton back in the day, so that brought me back :) would have been cool with audio

L.A.V.A. series L.A.M.P. edition VS THE WORLD by kazuo256 2017-12-05T22:29:18Z

I liked it, my only gripe was to maybe make the keys reassignable? But other than that very small bit, the game was great! The dialogue at the start was nice, and I definitely wanted to progress to see what other monsters/attacks I could get, the ghosts sounds creeped me out loads which made me just want to search them out and kill them.

Also I think I put down too many warp portals :D I was getting an error in the console too: ``` ERROR: SpatialSound2DServerSW::update: Invalid mix rate for voice (0) check for invalid pitch_scale param. At: servers\spatial_sound_2d\spatial_sound_2d_server_sw.cpp:949 ```

Drift Punk by CremaGames 2017-12-06T19:05:10Z

Really polished game, nice job.

Crystalien: Mega Blastar by Gurbx 2017-12-07T22:29:06Z

I liked the controls and the art was super nice too, especially the particle effect following the tank, really cool. Only problem I had was it seemed quite difficult :D

Sailor Wolf by Pashok 2017-12-06T23:59:56Z

Honestly the music and graphics were amazing.

Broken Forklift by DeinVenteD 2017-12-07T22:49:35Z

Interesting idea albeit a bit repetitive

Sunburn by Shimmen 2017-12-05T23:01:40Z

Definitely relatable :D I really want to know what's casting a circular moving shadow :thinking:

Fish Catchers by Sinci1 2017-12-05T10:10:41Z

Nice entry, I just kept trying to line up my shots so I could hit multiple fish at the same time :D I liked the art style, simplistic but really suited the game, felt like a nice arcade game

Don Quijote vs Pentapolin's flock by voxmures 2017-12-05T22:10:19Z

Yeah I wasn't sure what was going on really, the text at the start was hard to read. Other than that I liked the music :D

Npigs by 6smith 2017-12-05T22:46:52Z

Really loving the sound of the game, great use of music and sound effects, and was quite challenging trying to work out how I'd get them all up :D

9 Lives by Alex Davies 2017-12-06T18:56:45Z

I really like the art, the perspective of the world looks really cool too, I think you did well! Obviously lacks sounds/music, but don't be so hard on yourself - it's your first LD and people definitely seem to be enjoying the game :D so good job!

Classical Night by Miguel Polvora 2017-12-05T16:41:38Z

Quite fun, the second song was really cool and felt it worked a lot better than the first for the 'spawning to the music' aspect, nice job though. Always been a fan of music synced :D

Sushi Secret by RainbowJam 2017-12-05T09:40:31Z

Thank you guys, means a lot :D

Sushi Secret by RainbowJam 2017-12-05T21:56:48Z

Yeah balancing was definitely the hardest part, I wanted the AE reveal to happen soon enough so that everyone would see it :D

Sushi Secret by RainbowJam 2017-12-07T09:55:48Z

@ponchoguy , yeah that's a good idea, never really thought of that :) Thanks for the feedback

Sushi Secret by RainbowJam 2017-12-08T14:47:48Z

@Fireslash thanks for the long review! Yeah the UI art was very much a rushed thing, I will have to look into this bug you found, it was very much a "let's hope it all works on WebGL" kind of thing :)

@cosmic-adventure-squad Thank you! Getting the balancing right was quite hard, as me and RainbowJam got very used to playing the game so we had no idea if it was too hard or too easy, but we did want it to be an 'unwinnable' game.

Myself & Myself & Myself & Myself... by DeveloperDamien 2017-12-06T18:51:56Z

Ahhh, seemed to get a bug when fighting Nadia I think: Failed to load: img/animations/Howl.png But seemed like a great concept! I will rate it if the bug is fixed so I can play it fully :D

Myself & Myself & Myself & Myself... by DeveloperDamien 2017-12-06T19:30:01Z

Ahhh damn, failed to load "img/animations/Cure4.png" :(

Broken Light by Xeloglaz 2017-12-06T18:45:14Z

You had all the basic mechanics down so good job there :D Pretty fun for a short arcade style game, might be good with (as mentioned above) some form of story / end goal :)

Space Pirates by Sam Dower 2017-12-06T18:30:50Z

I wasn't a fan of the normal background music, the battle music was quite good though, felt like the right amount of excitement :D The camera change on the spaceship was quite fun too, overall pretty decent 72h game :)

Type Them Down by Angelonias 2017-12-07T16:04:13Z

Really good idea, well thought out and looks really good as well!
