LD48 — Deeper and deeper

Stolen Time by loginaut 2021-04-27T02:29:31Z

Pretty good start! Music is a bit repetitive, and you can get out of bounds by climbing up the first roof on the right (which is kinda fun, haha). I couldn't really figure out where to go or what to do, all paths seemed to be blocked off, and places you looked like you could go you couldn't go through. Got stuck and quit. Seems fun though! :)

Inferno Dominus by Klyaddus 2021-04-27T02:14:41Z

The lighting and the designs look really nice! Was pretty confused on what to do though. With no menu or instructions, I wasn't sure what the controls were or what my objective was.. The character also seemed to be T-posing? Even if he couldn't be animated one static pose would've helped a lot. Could use some more work, but keep at it, it's looking cool! :)

EveryDay by xpoho 2021-04-27T02:03:03Z

Link doesn't seem to work for me

Abyss by Pandalk 2021-04-27T02:08:41Z

Really nice atmosphere! Loved the feeling of it. The minimal graphics and music work very well together. Would be nice if the Esc button worked to bring up a menu to quit. And agreed that it could use a goal of some sort to feel like there's a reason to keep going. Overall great work! :)

LD54 — Limited Space

MIROH by Wendel Scardua 2023-10-03T14:39:18Z

This game is so clever! I loved that it's an actual NES game, that's so neat! Really loved the concept :)

Antlantis by frederikja163 2023-10-03T16:40:01Z

Super impressive to see a fully realized any colony simulator! Took me a bit to figure out how it worked, but the game is pretty good about telling you what to do and figured it out eventually! Really impressed with the building mechanic and how it all works together. Super great game, would just love to see little ant buddies running around if you keep adding to this! ^^

Bucket Buffet by Don Fouts 2023-10-03T15:22:03Z

This game made me laugh so much! I loved the gameplay loop, and the inspirational quotes made me crack up so much! One of my favorite games I've played so far! Very fun and funny, great job! :)

Limited Judgement by velvetlobster 2023-10-03T15:30:58Z

I liked the style of the game, but I ran into some issues, one that stopped me from continuing to play the game. Didn't really know what to do controls-wise at the beginning, wasn't sure what the logic was to picking prisoners as only one of them gave any information. Then ran into a bug where the dialogue wouldn't continue while talking to the lady and I had to force close the tab. Again, cool art style, just some issues to work on. Nice job! :)

Behind The Darkness by Squeele 2023-10-03T16:54:40Z

I loved this a lot! The graphics and sound design were superb! Really loved the dynamic shadows on everything. Really cohesive game, it all flowed together very well! Super fantastic job on this spooky game! :)

DARQY by Euler Moises 2023-10-03T15:04:23Z

Really fun idea! I had some trouble knowing when a monster was above or below me, but a really unique concept and cute pixel art! Nice job! :)

Redneck Renovation by Kylazaur 2023-09-29T17:21:35Z

Had a ton of fun making art for this game! Hope folks enjoy our goofy idea! :D

Tiny People Big Adventure by Jahwffrey 2023-10-03T19:26:45Z

This was one of my favorites so far! I have a really soft spot for full motion video in games, and you really brought out that charm! <3 Really want to keep playing to see all the cutscenes! Impressive you were able to work with so much video and compositing in a game jam, really enjoyed it!

Stacked by Skvader_418 2023-10-03T14:31:01Z

Awesome game! I had a lot of fun playing it! :)

Rabbit Reporter by LucaVazz 2023-10-03T16:21:28Z

Super cute game! I really liked the mechanic where you assembled your newspaper, that was a lot of fun! I enjoyed it so much, I wish there was more stories to uncover! Hopefully you keep working on it, and add more to the game. I really liked it! :)

Boo! Bark! by Doot 2023-10-03T17:16:02Z

Super cute game! Really loved the artsyle and the music fit very well together. The gameplay was also super unique and original! Very additive and fun to play! Amazing job! :)

Caved In by primed-pixel 2023-10-03T19:48:36Z

Felt really good to play, got a bit repetitive, but was still fun! Really nice job! :)

Fishbowl Rescue! by FedeOlive 2023-10-03T17:39:22Z

Really cute game, I liked playing this one! The controls were really easy to grasp a hold of. The only thing is I kept getting a game over all of a sudden without really knowing why? I think I ran out of water, but it happens so quick that I wasn't sure, lol. But super cute and fun game, really enjoyed it! :)

Voodoo Jump by Oleg Bone 2023-10-03T18:54:20Z

Had a hard time playing this one. The character slips off of the totems really easily, and once you go off on the right side, you're dead. Killing the birds was pretty difficult because you would bounce off of them, and the controls made it hard to get to them. I think with some small changes this could be pretty fun!

X-13 VIRTUOUS MISSION by Riesyeti 2023-10-03T19:57:41Z

I really liked that this felt and looked like a mech game for Windows 98! I wish you could see the bullets so it didn't feel like just clicking on something to make it disappear, and some ambiance or music would've helped a lot. I also got to the end, and didn't seem to win, maybe an indication of how many enemies were left would've been helpful? Overall, enjoyed the look of it! :)

Limited Space by Sven Lowry 2023-10-03T20:26:50Z

Had fun playing this one! Wish there was a bit more visually to keep it engaging, but overall solid game and I enjoyed rescuing the little space men! :) Nice job!

Critical Core by Benjamin Halko 2023-10-03T17:45:26Z

Really dug this game! I found it hard, but in a satisfying way. Took me a second to understand the gameplay, but picked up on it super quick, it was very intuitive one I "got it." Really liked the arcade-y feel of the graphics and music. Really kickass game! :)

Loot Goblin by Gustavokado 2023-10-03T17:57:45Z

Super cute game! Loved the art and storytelling! Had some issues with the boot, seemed to overlap other objects and not count for overflowing the backpack. But I loved the unique gameplay, and the idea of this little goblin getting annoyed at all the things the adventurer was picking up. xD Tons of fun!!

Escape from the clutches by Anton4ik-dev 2023-10-03T20:04:04Z

The game itself wasn't too fun, felt a bit repetitive and like I wasn't in control of much. The art was nice, but didn't really enjoy the gameplay, wish there was more going on.

Super Cube by Senso 2023-10-03T18:06:17Z

Man, I can't believe this was a compo game. It's so perfect, I love the voice over and the sound effects, really over the top in a good way! Once I got a hang on the controls I was having a lot of fun playing it! Really impressive, amazing work! :)

Bimbi's Cosmo Party by Frib 2023-10-03T18:26:24Z

I can't believe there's a multiplayer Mario Party game with mobile controls for people. That's very impressive! Really liked that the controls were just simple colors, and all the games revolved around that. Really clever and fun! One my device when the phone rotated accidentally, the screen went black for me. Really cute and fun though! :)

Icy Dinner by DurkaGames 2023-10-03T19:23:30Z

This game was so cute, I loved the beginning cutscene so much, it made me really want to make an excellent fish dinner for my penguin wife! The art style was amazing and cute, I really liked the gameplay as well! Super solid game, and a lot of fun to play! Nice work! :)

Gacha Fever by Falestress 2023-10-03T17:29:24Z

Really liked this one, to the point I had to stop playing it early to go check out other games xD Loved the artstyle a lot, and the sound design suited it very well! Really nice job on this one! :)

Crime Critters (Rob the British Museum) by Pen Island Games 2023-10-03T17:06:58Z

This game was amazing! I can't believe y'all put this together in a game jam, it feels like one complete game. Would be fun if I had a friend to it with! :') Super impressive, loved the art <3

Night's Bastion by Sevadusk 2023-10-03T15:56:41Z

Really cool what you were able to put together! I liked how unique the gameplay was, and the fighting sections got pretty cool! Was a bit difficult to know what to do at some points, or what was going on, but it was cohesive and a solid game. Nice job on getting it finished, placeholders and all! :D

Knife Versus AK by livinamuk 2023-10-03T18:45:59Z

The game starts so quick, I died without knowing what was going on, haha! Seems like you get killed pretty easily, and there's not much to do besides spam the mouse button, but it made me laugh a lot, loved the bald man running directly at you. Scared the piss out of me! xD

Sprinttech by JanOG 2023-10-03T14:54:02Z

Really cool concept! I sucked at it xD the idea of shooting platforms to make them appear was very unique! I could see it being addictive trying to get batter at running the levels. Great job! :)

Gavin's Small Backpack by CoffeUp Studios 2023-10-03T18:34:19Z

Nice job finishing your first game! It took me a minute to understand what was going on because travel never went to a different location visually. Would've loved to see more settings when going on the missions, and would also be nice if the items stayed in the backpack when going out to the mission board. But super cute artstyle, really liked the way it looked! :)

Nice Park! by Barbabulle 2023-10-03T19:41:07Z

This game was so fun! I really enjoyed how reckless you could be to accomplish the parking missions. Controls felt great, loved the graphics and sound design. Really solid and well put together, really excellent work! :) screenshot.png

Fruit Fitting Frenzy! by Gwen Dekker 2023-10-03T20:15:49Z

Really enjoyed this game! It was perfect for what it was! Really enjoyed the aspect of puzzles getting more complex because of a to-do list! Layout and graphics I felt suited the game very well. This is one I'll definitely be coming back to to try and get further! xD

LD55 — Summoning

The Quackening by BauBau 2024-04-15T23:21:09Z

Pretty fun, and a very cute idea! I do wish the ducks were a little bit faster, got a bit impatient waiting for them, but I suppose that's what being a mother duck is like! xD Really lovely art and music, super charming entry!!

Salmoning by kuviman 2024-04-16T04:53:01Z

This game is so cute, I love how boxy everything looks! Had a really great style, had a lot of fun playing it!!

Booking It by Whirlguy 2024-04-15T22:33:25Z

Really loved the style of this!! The difficulty spike felt very nice as well, and had a super cool mechanic! Really great entry dude, you should feel extremely proud! 😄

The Joshening by Pulni 2024-04-16T00:22:37Z

I got stuck when I spawned too many Josh's! XD Very fun to play!!

Summon sheriff battle by GF_Productions 2024-04-15T23:06:25Z

Not bad! Could use a few more indicators, like a flash when you get hit or shoot something, and a healthbar would help to know how well you're doing. Nice job! :)

Triâ–²gram by mikolajt 2024-04-16T00:16:30Z

This could've benefited from a tutorial, or instructions on the LD page. I wasn't really sure what I was doing or how to play. Had to also Alt+F4 to exit the fullscreen game. Atmosphere and graphics are very nice however!
