This is adorable! I love the style and faithfulness to the theme. The assets on here are amazing!

I love this little game. Small note - whenever I hit "SPACEBAR" to jump it scrolls my browser view down, but I figured out you could use a left click.

Pretty hilarious concept! Props for doing this all in OpenGL and C++, that's a tall order!

@prodigalson great design and super solid feel!

Beautifully polished visuals on this. I really love the effort you've taken to make different spells, but they all just deal straight damage - so maybe incorporate some burn effects, or windy push-back? Also - given that the only thing you can do is cast spells it might make sense for him to just always have the element menu open. Nevertheless, this is a very well executed concept! Coolest magic I've seen in the submissions yet.

Your itch.io link is redirecting me to a page asking for a password.

It may just be me but WASD did not work for me to move around. It was more like QZSD. Nevertheless, cool game! Love the visuals and sound design on this.

Demolition Viking Man by ComicSans 2021-10-05T01:19:03Z

Really nice idea. You could experiment with the player being able to crash through the buildings themselves in true viking fashion!

Beautiful assets on this game, and I love the minigame rush! Great job on this game.

Really whacked out concept, y'all - I love it!

Bitrot by Maxathon 2021-10-04T23:55:10Z

This game has a really sweet aesthetic and atmosphere! Felt a little easy and empty, but it is one of the coolest ideas I've come across yet in the submissions. Great job!

Beff Jezos: Time Shift Manager by Sine Nomine 2021-10-05T01:50:12Z

Absolutely hilarious - the audio is stuck in a loop though. Great mechanics on this game, I love this idea!

Traffic Jam by CasualNothing 2021-10-05T00:00:05Z

This is sweet. I love the bright colors in the assets! The change in perspective when you speed up feels really cool, but kind of hurts my head after a while lol.

Tetrilibrium by Melancholia 2021-10-05T00:22:51Z

This game feels great to play - hats off to you! Sending this one to my friends!

I'm not usually a fan of these kind of games but you got me with the penguin. Maybe get some dynamic objects in here - might be fun to knock down a tree or something!

Just first comment for setting up the submission page for ludum dare.

@diego-escalante Hilarious story about the glass shattering sound effect - the other programmer's kid was fast asleep at the time we needed to record this sound so we ended up grabbing a few bottles and actually breaking them with a rock in my car. The explosion sound effect was made by throwing Unity.exe into Audacity's "raw import" mode and finding some interesting bits.

UNWOUND by JamesMiller 2021-10-05T14:44:31Z

I love the "thread the needle" concept here - very satisfying! I think it would be cool if you could someone use it to pull certain enemies towards you: the enemies that sit in the rafters are a little hard to "pin down". Great overall concept and execution on this!

Slime Asylum by Jel2217 2021-10-04T22:51:18Z

Love the music and screen effects on this. Really fun!
