Text games are fine with me. It was fun but at the same time i wish there were a bit more visuals in it. This felt like something is missing. I guess it needs polish and updates to make it work better.
I am not sure that it is truly connected with the theme but it was very fun to play. Even better it was a local multiplayer game. That's really cool. After playing it for a while i wanted to turn off the music but overall it was so fun playing together with my children that music is something you can cope with. All in all a great entry!
That's one beautiful game. Both fun and challenghing to play. Great combination.
It was fun. I only wonder where did all that chees came from? Movement was sometimes a bit difficult, especially when i sacrificed my legs :) Good one. Keep on going.
It reminded me of a Graveyard Keeper. So cool guys. I envy you've made it so great. Really feels like i want to play more levels and more gameplay features. Truly hope you will continue making it even better after the LD is over. You did a great job. Good luck!
Art is very nice. As well as the game itself. Challenging and fun. You guys did a great job.
Hey @alexrose It was kinda unique game and experience. I had to restart a few times in trying to check out that Steam key the game offered. Too bad it was taken and activated already. So if somebody tells you that noone is going to play your games more than once that's just bullshit. I did.
You've done a great job guys. It was very fun. Sense of humour that i really really like and enjoy. I would give you a gold medal for that if I could.
Art is very nice and neat. Sounds and music are also cool. All in all this is a perfect entry for the Ludum Dare.
P.S. Also it was great to see you doing it here. We've met last month on DevGamm conference in Minsk and played at the same table on poker tournament. I was the one to leave our table first and gave you a free drink coupon while i was gone. Greetings. Keep up the good work!
It was fun to play. Contolling the particles felt just right. I was a bit frustruated with the connection to the theme of the LD. But still it is a nice entry. Thank you!
That one is a great entry. I enjoyed plaing it very much. The only thing that maybe better if you make a web version of the game. Good luck to you!
Good god! How the hell (Sorry Jesus Dude) did you manage to involve so much people doing the game? We were struggling quite hard making ours with 6 guys. The most important thing that you've made such a great game. I trully enjoyed it. It's fun, addictive, hillarious, beautiful and unusual. I am not even sure I can add something else to that. Super good entry!
Sometimes i missed the button i wanted to use. Maybe it would be better to group the keys closer to each other. Overall nice idea and executed very well. Go on and develop it further for more gameplay!
Controls are not that good. I ended up being on the edge on some object and couldn't jump at all. Still it was challenging and made me go further. Which means it has potential.
Good luck!
It maybe not the beautiful game out there but I love roguelikes. Cool game for 3 devs.
Guys you're just great. I don't think i've seen another fighting game this LD. Your game is so beautiful and neat. Especially knowing that you had only 72 hours to do that. I wonder what you can do if you continue developing it. 10 Chuck Norris out of 10 :)
Wanted to do that quite a while ago but got sick. This is a good entry. Graphics are nice, controls are easy. I've got distracted by the red arrows pointing at mine. Thought it was something I need to do to go down there. But i couldn't find that out. So it's either I am not supposed to do that or I am not that smart :)
Also I feel much better since gave you the last 20th rating so you are now going to the final rating. Congratulations!
I wonder if Elon Musk take your game as an idea for his expedition on Mars :)
Haven't seen a lot of shooter this jam. Your is much better that the others I've seen. Especially that you did it alone. You're the man!
We had similar idea in the beginning. Actually we had 9 or 10 and this was the one we started making. Later on we switched to another setting. Still feel quite connected to your game. All the best.
Btw, seems I was the last one to give you rating number 20 so you should get into the final rating. Good luck!
That was very fun to play. Thank you. Nice pixel art and neat sounds. I really like memory games and enjoyed playing this one. All the best in continue doing what you do!
Very clever gameplay. I really like it. Though it was a bit hard to get through the rooms with 5 enemies. Made me want to walk back which was impossible to do. All in all it is a great entry. Moreover that you did it all alone. So cool.
Wow. Not that's unique. We had like 10 different ideas to work on after the theme was revealed. But nothing close to that. Great work!
Cool concept. I liked running around the city and throwing buildings and monsters. It's like "Team America" when they were saving the world ruining in the process. Very funny :) It would be even cooler if you added dead citizens counter. To see how many lifes were sacrified to save the rest :)
Nice pixelart. Fun too. Keep up the good work!
Like in previous comments i found it frustrating that i couldn't move with the new shiny boots. But the it hit me even harder that i became so easilly killed. Overal nice idea of gaining new powers while losing other at the same time. Keep up the good work.
Rocket Jumps guys! It's awesome. Very nice. I almost feel like plyaing Quake :)
I've really tried to play your game but I just couldn't make it at first. Got message stating that data folder should be in the same folder as executable. They were but didn't work. Checked the names, tried moving files to some other place. In the end i run it through command line "HandGone.exe HandGone_Data".
As for the game. It's just not much depth in it. Therefore it's hard to rate it. Idea for sacrificing your body parts work. Which is fun. Too bad you have only 10 fingers :)
Vegan nithgmare :) Small and fun game. Very nice.
Very nice racing game. I really enjoyed graphics and the feeling of speed. I do agree with the previous commcents that when the speed is too high you have no time to react. Just pure luck if you hit something or not. I didn't quite feel the sacrifice in the game but it is playable and cool.
It was really cool to see a strategy game here. Great piece of work. Fits theme perfectly. I was struggling in the beginning to understand how to play but then i saw the video and things became much easier. Who reads the manuals anyway :)
Robots rule the world! Very nice entry. Art is some sort special but the gameplay is really great. You also have to use your brains not only skill which is even better.
Really like dungeon-crawlers. At least that's what i call them :) Very good entry. Atmospheric with great ambient. Gameplay is also very nice. Felt immediately like home. Enjoyed playing this one.
Made it till the end. All in all about 5 minutes. There was something wrong with the keys. Game said it was supposed to be A and W for walking, when it was A and D for me. Enemies wouldn't turn around if you jump them over. Glad that you made it until the end. Making games all alone is just a pure magic to me. Good luck!
Man, that was so cool. Thank you. I think this is probably one of the cleaverest game of this LD. Innovation is like 10 out of 10. Very nice job.
I was trying to save as much robots as i could. And tried again ang again. It is so addictive. Very cool entry to the LD. Thank you so much for this experience.
I missed the interact button at first, but when it was found everything became much more fun. Thank you for the nice game. Executed very well. MOAR SHOOTERS!
Hey. Haven't seen multiplayer games this jam yet. You're cool. I do like this type of competitive games against friends so this one is truly great. It also has nice graphics.
It was fun to play. Thank you guys!
That was very clever not to balance the game but instead of marking it as a bug declaring it as a feature :) Animations and art is just great. Since we all had so little time it's really cool that you managed to do that much. I think you can make it even better if you update the game after LD. Good work!
Game is a bit straightforward but still it is fun and addictive. I did want to score more and more. Graphics are very nice. Music is not so death metal but you tried :) All in all pretty solid entry. Way to go!
@fobia Sorry for the music. Sounds were the last thing we were adding to the game. Something like in last 15 minutes of the jam. So there you have it. Hopefully we'll do better next time. Lesson learned.
There's an end to the game. Just go for it :)
@sadsmile we have borrowed the song not steal it :) Therefore we opted out to be judged in sound category.
It was put as a placeholder in the last 15 minutes of the jam. Not sure if we can change the music after submission. It's not exactly a bug. We don't mind buying the song for the game but left it as it is for the goodwill and fairplay of the Ludum Dare.
@corbak Hi, thank you for your feedback. First level has an end. The thing is we didn't have enough time (well you know :) to polish the balance of the game. So it does take a bit of luck and a lot of patience to get through the first level. Since the voting is still on we are not making any changes to balance. It will be balanced better after the voting is finished. We do have plans to work on the game once Ludum Dare is over so feel free to follow us.
@ballo Thank for the feedback. We will definetely work on the game and release it on PC. We will also try to release it on consoles. However we are not sure about mobile. Something needs consideration.
@mateusboga Hi Mateus.
Thank you for the feedback. We tried our best to make everything as good as we could in time. Unfrotunatelly time was going against us. Well actually it was going against everybody else. You know :)
So yes, it ended up being quite hard. It will be balanced and polished later on. After the voting is over. Actually we are already working on the game already and will update it once the voting perion is over. We really look forward to update the game and get rid off those nasty bugs.
@shubart No way man. Keep on doing the great things. There should be more ideas, games and people doing it.
@dmitriyleaf @acaral @almax @arvejeitor @jk5000 Thank you guys. Visuals are really something we were lucky to polish at full speed. There is still a lot of room for improvement in other part of the game. We had so much in mind and so little time. We will continue to work on the project once the voting is over so you are most welcome to follow the game.
Also we had in mind doing some post mortem on our entry. Hopefully it will be of some interest to see the evolution of the game from day one until the final.
@mrspeaker
Hi. Thank you very much for your feedback. It is really import for us to get as much feedback and different opinions on the game as we can. Since we plan to continue improving the game we really appreciate your saying.
You're right. Mechanics should be introduced to the game at a slower pace. Bit by bit. It does get a bit confusing to understand what is going on here with the current version. We had so much ideas we wanted to show and much more unfinished and left out of the game. Our lesson is learnt. We will update the game and work more on game balance and mechanics.
Thank you once again.
@lucecyl Thank you for the feedback!
@hdugmag Thank you. We will continue to work on the game after LD is over. All levels will be balanced and polished more.
@dob Thank you. We have plans of adding proper tutorial and reconfiguring controls to be more intuitive and easier to use.
@peachtreeoath Thank you for the feedback. We had some hard times for sure but so is anyone else in here. The most important that we do have plan on the game after LD is over. So we will be updating the content and polish the levels.
@rexpeppers Thank you. Too bad we didn't make the WEB version on the date of release. It was our first time experience but then we figured out it is much better and easier for other people to play the game online. Controls seemed to be logical for us during the development process. After the feedback we realised it can be done in a bit different way. Definetely something to work on.
@krunoslav Thank you. We will make the game a bit easier to start with. With the progression becoming harder when you go further on the map.
@falak Thank you. It was really hard since it was the first time for us. We did a lot of mistakes but more important we've received a lot of experience during these 3 days.
@rodrigo-denubila Thank you, we gave it our best.
@unidaystudio Thank you. We've tried really hard to make everything in time and as good as possible.
@coda-highland Thanks for the feedback. There is definetelly room for improvement. This was our first time doing any jams at all. We decided to give it a go and try if we can make it. To be honest we haven't even released a single game yet. One of the reasons to take part in this LD was to finally make a game that can be released.Since there was a deadline we couldn't move further we had to try our best.
@wowa Thank you!
@jupiter-hadley Hey, thanks for playing our game. Money throwing was for when you're going next to the guy in red shirt. Tutorial is missing in a game. As for the audio we bought it properly but couldn't add it to the game according to the rules. Since it is not something we made ou our own we have opter out from voting in audio.
That's just cool. One of our ideas was also about air ballons and zeppelins. We switched to something else and you nailed yours just perfect. Art is awesome.
I really enjoyed playing this one. One of the ideas in our team for this LD was something similar to your game. In the end we decided to go for another idea but it's so cool you've done it so well and alone. Keep up the great work!
Very good entry. Sacrifice theme was a bit missing for me since i've done it with one pilot. But after reading the comments i understand now. Also i wish there was some sort of a parallax in the game. It was a frustrating experience that things moved on you rather that the feeling you are flying towards them. Otherwise it was nice and cool. Keep up the good work!
