LD42 — Running out of space

Disaster at Starbase 7 by rjhelms 2018-09-03T12:57:58Z

Nice! This game made me a bit nostalgic because it made me think about old DOS games that I was playing in my early years like Duke Nukem 1 or Slime World. So you definitively got me ont the mood, graphics and music categories. Good work!

Running out of Graves by wasd 2018-08-15T11:25:20Z

Fun little game. I liked the mood of the game. There's isnt much happening in the middle since all the corpses are coming from the sides of the screen. Maybe add a little something there? Good work overall! Cheers!

Cronus' Tomb 2 by Mr_Field 2018-09-04T11:05:47Z

Ho damn, why is this game so brutal? I'm totally in love with the art style, graphics and music. I also like this concept of simple quest where you have to grind a bit to level up. Made me think about Half Minute Hero.

I'm a bit sad that the game is so hard, because I only manage to get to the first dongeon, die after getting a few gold coins, go to the shop to heal, rince and repeat :(

However, you manage to hook me, I will try it again later. So Really awesome first impression, but then a bit disapointed by the brutal difficulty of the game. Good work!

FIND - A - MOLE by Siridakis 2018-09-03T14:01:24Z

This execution is good but I felt that the concept was lacking some mechanics. Will now try the lowrezjam edition of the game to see the improvements :) Good work!

Get Off My Space by Jungle 2018-09-03T14:40:37Z

Fun little game. There a fews details taht I didnt liked, like the fact taht some bushes are blocking you, which made the movements a bit frustating. Also the fact that you cannot move diagonally. I would also liked to have a use for the apples you collect. Like, spend X apples to get a better weapon or unleash a secret attack. Good work overall!

Gravity Hook by GlacierEclipse 2018-09-03T12:34:47Z

Interesting idea. The character was a bit hard to control in space (which is the point) but my feelings where that it (the movements of the character) was lacking a bit of pleasure. Good plateformer/puzzle overall!

Tales Of Steel And Mana: Empire's Birth by DreamingDice 2018-09-04T13:03:13Z

I have to say, it is a pretty ambitious game for a jam!

I liked the adventure / rpg mood sprinkled with strategy elements! There are some elements of gameplay that remained mysterious to me (like the speed stat). I also would have loiked and indicator showing me when the monsters are gonna level up so I can make my route knowingly.

But overall I think you have a solid basis for a good game! Good work! (The Undead Lord kicked my entire party's ass!)

EDIT : Also, a short tutorial would be welcome. Maybe a short first level with only few encouters, a boss and a town. The game isn't that complicated but it can help players enjoy the game quicker.

HexaGlitcher by JOrbits 2018-09-03T12:43:21Z

Instant fun! This simple but effective concept works very well. I restarted the level after dying multiple times. Add a few differents levels and weapons and you have a cool complete game! When is the battle royal mode out? Cheers!

Organize Your Life by Samusoidal 2018-09-04T14:01:01Z

I tried stabbing the overseer with the screwdriver but it didn't worked... Awesome art but gameplay needs a bit of depth. Cheers!

Super Hoarder Man by Klowner 2018-09-04T07:21:53Z

On my shitty computer, both the html and the windows build don't work :/

Escapeless by HellSquirrel 2018-09-04T13:50:41Z

Looks really nice but unfortunately it is too laggy on my cheap computer :(

CapyBarbra: A New Brow by Ratherjolly 2018-09-03T12:52:03Z

The gameplay and game pleasure were ok but it's really in the other categories that your game shine. Thumbs up for the humour and the cool chiptune!

Bloody Hooligans by Natwomb 2018-09-04T08:57:11Z

Funny. Made me think about zombie driver. Imo it lacks some "spices" to add replayability. Maybe add some bonuses that pops on the floor. Or add a combo mechanic that can unlocks another football ball. Good work overall!

Pizza Defender by Sloyd 2018-09-04T11:28:46Z

Ok I don't mind some tomato zombies eating my pizza, daily occurence, but broccoli!?! That's one step too far!

Good execution on the gameplay and graphic departement. I'm a bit sad you don't have a soundtrack that mixes elements of Tarantella and horror music. Good work, and watch out for thoses broccolis!

Pizza Defender by Sloyd 2018-09-04T11:53:01Z

@sloyd I would be happy to make a little funny track for this game. Check out my Soundcloud if you're interested (in my profile page). Cheers!

Pizza Defender by Sloyd 2018-09-04T14:02:53Z

@sloyd Awesome, will keep on eye on your project. Cheers!

Hiding Spot by toboggan 2018-09-04T08:47:39Z

Very simple but very effective! Made me think about Stephen's Sausage Roll. I don't have much advices since the game is polished in nearly every aspect. Sometimes you're not sure in what direction you're gonna go when you press a key, but that's a common trait for isometric games. Very good work!

Getting Over Gold Hoarding by leetleaf 2018-09-03T12:21:45Z

Fun little game. I would have liked a musical score to help improve the mood. Good work!

The legend of the looter and the incredible backpack that never runs out of spac by agar3s 2018-09-04T12:20:00Z

I like the idea of crawling through a dongeon without having to kill anyone. It's a bit unexpected but it works! The game could use a mini map and a signal telling the player that he has completed the item list. Good concept, needs more digging. Good work!

Animal Wrath by Jonathan Lorenz 2018-09-04T00:13:58Z

Thank you guys for taking the time to play and comment!

@unfinished Here's a clue : It's not a bug, it's a feature ;)

Animal Wrath by Jonathan Lorenz 2018-09-04T07:11:58Z

@unfinished SPOILER :

>You have to stack animals for this level :) >You can actually put 2 animals on the same spot if you try to click in the corner of the squares :)

Animal Wrath by Jonathan Lorenz 2018-09-04T12:29:34Z

Thank you for trying the game guys!

@dreamingdice thank you for your in depth comment! I'm happy that you talked about the graphics! I asked myself whether or not I should opt out for this category, but I choose to not do it and here's my reflection :

I used 3 assets packs (one for the animals, one for the trees and one for the cars), so yes the 3d models are not from me but I still had to choose and angle of camera, a lightning, a setting of the levels, a way to use thoses assets so they blend in, I created little buildings (which are ugly but still!)...

So I thought that since there are graphical decisions that I have made, I should not opt out for that category ( but of course state what the assets used are.)

So that was my train of thought. What do you guys think about it? Should I opt out for that category next time?

Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

Cheers!

Animal Wrath by Jonathan Lorenz 2018-09-04T13:11:50Z

@probe2 I love music too :)

The Space Between Us by plufmot 2018-09-04T11:49:22Z

Fun little game! I liked the variety of the different levels. The art style is simple but suits the genre well. I manage to reach the end :) Simple game but effective. Good work!

You Wanna Pizza Me? by Elowan 2018-09-04T10:46:06Z

Nice! The only complaint I would make is that it's not always clear if your position is correct to kill the delivery guys. Sometimes I felt like I was at a good spot but the delivery guys see me and kills me. Other thant that, good little game!

Plenty Of Junk by Verbante 2018-09-03T15:05:26Z

Godot doesn't work very well on my computer :/ But I wanted to comment anyway because the thumbnail caught my attention, so it's already a little victory. Cheers!

11042 by abvadabra 2018-09-04T08:30:16Z

Love the Flashback / Prisoner of Ice vibe! However, imo there was a bit too much to do for the first level, maybe trim it down to fewer task and later increase the number of tasks. Also, at a certain point, my cheap pc started lagging and never recover. Good work and good mood!

Goo'N'Ghosts by Wr4thon 2018-09-03T14:27:32Z

Very good mood! The graphics and the music are the highlights of your game imo. The movements and jumps feel a bit off. It is the part that I think needs improvements. Also I would have liked to play the game with a controller but unfortunately, jump wasn't mapped. Good work overall!

Bloody Cell by GuardHei 2018-09-04T10:53:07Z

Yes! I like this kind of simple concept, just nicely executed. The fun was here and that is the mlost important part for me. I also like (and am guilty of) simple cube design. The only thing that bothered me was the fact that the blood stains are about the same colour as the cancer cells, which made the game a bit unreadable at a certain point. Good work!

Devil Warship Makujin by Ceuteum 2018-09-03T13:13:30Z

Imo this kind of movements doesn't fit really well a shmup. I had a hard time aiming at ennemies whiles they were pretty good at shooting me. Maybe add a fonctino to rotate without moving? Or use two axis, one for aiming, one for shooting. Other then that, the game is nice. Good work.

Poisoned Palace by jordantanner 2018-09-03T13:51:52Z

This looks like my type of games! Unfortunately it was a bit laggy with my shitty laptop :( Anyway, the gamefeel was very good (except the jump which can be "lighter" imo). Got a Metroidish mood and I liked it! Good work!

ECO WARRIORS by FreeLivesGames 2018-09-04T13:45:29Z

That was hillarious AND enjoyable to play! Good job!

LD43 — Sacrifices must be made

Bunnycula by pcmaster 2018-12-11T12:27:13Z

Funny little game but a bit repetitive. I would have liked to have more options to catch animals. Maybe puzzle elements. The game could also use an arrow that points to the sacrifice point when you have caught an animal. Nice game overall. Cheers!

Bunnycula by pcmaster 2018-12-11T13:37:09Z

@pcmaster Ho nice touch, didn't noticed that!

Sacrifices Must Be Made by danman9914 2018-12-10T16:42:15Z

It works pretty well! I played the game to end (with a little help from a glitch with the warden card) and I had fun! Great mood and good game overall. Cheers!

NoooooMan by anidealgift 2018-12-27T18:17:39Z

Didn't made it through level 11. Weirdly addictive! You got an extra point for the humor, I never go tired of the sound of the Noman! Good game!

Domino Sanctus Spiritus by shiitman 2018-12-11T13:13:02Z

? What? I didn't really get the game.

I just clicked on the card that were highlighted and sometimes I won, sometimes I lost. Maybe is there something that I didn't understood. For now, it seems to me that randomness determine if you win or lose the game. Nice graphics and mood however!

Bla v Raa : Eternal God Battle Brothers by ragtagradical 2018-12-06T00:29:29Z

Nice gamefeel. The character was pleasent to move and control. I liked the idea of the asynchronous gameplay! After a few lives I felt like I have seen everything but I had fun. Good work!

Penance by cdunham 2018-12-27T11:23:56Z

This is a nice little game. Unfortunately the version I first played (webgl on chrome) was a bit buggy. I was controlling a sword attacking health bars. All characters were invisibles. Good thing there was a windows version available! It's a cool little game and I liked the minimalism of the graphics. Had fun playing it. Good work!

Sacrificium by Belonzik 2018-12-11T12:16:36Z

Ho, another game named Sacrificium!

Really liked the graphics and the mood of the game.

However, I didn't really get what I was supposed to do. The game seems a bit complicated to me. I understood I had to identify the demon and perform a sacrifice accordingly but I'm not really sure how to do it.

Just to let you know, I can be classified as an "impatient gamer". You know, the type that don't like to read textes in games. So good work overall but not a game for me.

Cheers!

Hyper Skater by neowhoru 2018-12-06T00:09:07Z

Nice game. I liked the physic of the skater. I would have like to see more platformer elements like moving platforms. The music was a bit annoying. Had fun playing it. Good work overall!

The Fallen Prince by TwinGhosts 2018-12-11T12:59:07Z

A simple but nice action platformer. I would have liked to see more options when sacrificing your skelettons (give health, makes you invincible, makes you stronger, explode, ...) Nice game overall. Cheers!

Death's Reward by manuu 2018-12-29T15:28:50Z

Nice mood!. Unfortunaltely there were not enough checkpoints. Imo there should be a checkpoint at the end of every long walking section without fight, and also a checkpoint at the end of every encounters with ennemies. Other than that I had fun playing this little action platformer. Good work!

Suzanne Awakens by Sunzed 2018-12-10T15:59:08Z

I wanted to try this game because the graphics and the pitch hooked me. Unfortunately my computer does not support OpenGL 3.3 :/ Can't play and the game but at least you managed to hook me with your presentation. So good work for that!

Point & Sin - Ludum Dare 43 edition by Simanis 2018-12-11T12:42:15Z

Nice Diablo mood! The game is quite simple but effective. The game can of course be improved (movements, hitboxes, bestiary) but has already a strong foundation. Good work!

Dino Jump by joll05 2018-12-26T20:20:08Z

Funny idea. The jump / ride dinosaur button is a bit clunky but it was part of the fun. Would have loved to hear dinosaur screams when they fell off the cliff :) and more sfx in general. Good work overall!

Sacrificium by Jonathan Lorenz 2018-12-06T00:32:09Z

@poroh Thank you for playing, I will have a look at the resolution on itchio. Thank you for letting me know!

@minechael Ah that's an interesting idea, I take note! Thank you for your feedback!

Sacrificium by Jonathan Lorenz 2018-12-06T00:45:48Z

@jlv Great feedback! I agree with your suggestions!

Sacrificium by Jonathan Lorenz 2018-12-11T21:12:20Z

Glad you liked it @pcmaster and @dexp ! Cheers!

Sacrificium by Jonathan Lorenz 2018-12-27T11:08:31Z

Thank you for your in depth comment @cdunham . I agree with every suggestions you made and will try to do better for the next LD! Cheers!

Berserk by Doey 2018-12-26T20:27:13Z

Fun little game. Made me think about Cannon Fodder. Good point for the humor of the audio! Would have loved if I could buy archers too! Good work!

I MUST BELONG by Tolga 2018-12-27T12:18:43Z

The concept is good but I felt like the level design and balancing could be improved. There was net enough ennemies and they were too strong. The art and sound is nice. I liked that the "villager" curency is used as life and as a way to get shorcuts. Good work !

I MUST BELONG by Tolga 2018-12-27T16:04:20Z

@tolga First game jam for your team? Awesome! Double congratulations then!

Happy Fun Death Cult by Darn 2018-12-26T19:39:45Z

Well I didn't quite get it at the first tries. After reading your description I understood a bit more what to do. I've seen your took the time to put a tutorial screen, which is a good idea! I would have loved if the tutorials elements would pop-up at certain points. For example if the happiness bar is too low, a text saying what to do. Nice work overall!

Vikrifice by Lucidus 2018-12-06T00:16:04Z

Nice game. However I felt it was a bit heavy. I would have seen the same game but with more speed. The graphics were the highlights. Good work overall!

For Brain ! by nolifedev 2018-12-05T23:59:45Z

Nice game! I especially loved the soundtrack. It could use more levels and more different traps. Good work overall!

Total Party Kill by adventureislands 2018-12-26T20:10:56Z

Awesome! I played it to the end and had fun all the way! This is a really good work that fits my taste.

Obedience by bulb 2018-12-26T21:07:59Z

Nice mood! I would have liked a change on the cursor whenever it is on an interactable thing. Got a hard time finding where to chop the tree. Cool little point and click!

LD44 — Your life is currency

Necrosis by Skosnowich 2019-05-19T15:10:47Z

I liked the idea, however I would have prefered a turn based game for this. The graphics were ok and the sfx too. The music was nice and chill but does this really fit a game were you attack cells? Good work overall!

Curse of Volgax by Wekaj 2019-05-20T13:10:30Z

Didn't manage to finish the jungle, or to kill a single enemy. Even with the lightning sword. Also, I don't know where I am supposed to go. I liked the mood of the game but I felt clueless so I didn't have much fun. Just a few indications or a very short first level would do the trick for me. Other than that, good work!

Heart Knight by Samuli 2019-05-19T17:24:31Z

Congrats for the technical challenge of the gameboy export! The game is simple but nice. There are some hitboxes imprecisions and I would have prefered the sword to bein the middle of the character. Good work overall.

SIGNET by mindfungus 2019-05-20T12:52:37Z

Not sure if this qualifies as game, but I had fun nontheless. Very mesmerizing!

The Nameless Cave by Knatt 2019-05-19T15:38:26Z

Nice little game that starts as a beat em all and continue as a bullet hell. I didn't get to kill the boss. The differents attacks could have been power ups that you get for reaching a certain point. Cool game, good work!

And Then There Was One by one-seed-fruit 2019-05-20T11:14:22Z

"Cannot read property 'getParameter' of undefined" :'(

Salvage by A-Flat Miner Studios 2019-05-20T14:25:39Z

Loved the mood of the game! The concept is simple but it has a kind of "gambit like" addictiveness! "What will I find this time?" Nice little game, good work!

Hero town by alobker 2019-05-20T12:43:48Z

I spent way too much time on this game! Good execution on the clicker game genre!

Meds of Honor by anidealgift 2019-05-19T15:26:51Z

Cool little game. The level design is one of the best part about your game. I liked the mood too. Little thought about the tutorial : I felt I stayed stuck too much time in level 2, maybe introduce only one mechanic at the time and make shorter levels (first the "lava", the the throwing, and then throwing on buttons). Good game, good work!

Devil's Bank - Your life is currency! by Wicked 2019-05-20T14:15:14Z

Didn't really understood what makes a good or a bad deal. Could be an interesting game but lacks explanations imho. Other than that, the art of the game is five stars for me! Very good work!

Undertaker by LuckyFeathers 2019-05-19T18:35:54Z

Good game, I finished it. Yes I cheated by over using the charged fist but I had fun. I also liked what you did with the background images. It helped gave the game a certain mood. Good work!

Don't BET your LIFE away! by jandourek 2019-05-19T16:15:44Z

I suppose the possibility to fight one or two robots are there for the player to "heal" himself with fresh robot parts or to get new parts, but I ended up fighting lots of robots and getting useless parts before realising I needed to kill the champion to unlock new parts (which is for me the hook of your game). Why not start the game with an easy champion fight? So that the very first thing you do in the game is unlock something! It could show the player the concept of the game and give them a reason to play! Other than that, good work!

Blood Bound by Texou31 2019-05-19T19:12:26Z

Hi, I liked the idea of the game and the effort put into the UI. However there are still some fixes to be made. I didn't manage to kill the first enemy and I'm not sure how I even manage to dealt some damage. I think there are still some bugs. Also, adding some indication on how to defeat the first enemy would be great. Last thing, you musical loop needs to be longer. Good work anyway!

Bite Delight by Nightfall 2019-05-20T13:42:20Z

Good graphics, the sad music fits the game, but I didn't manage to do much because I was dying so quickly! Maybe add a first level that is very easy, with a few non attacking enemies so the player can try the blood sucking mechanic before getting in the real levels? Good work but needs balancing imho.

Tyrone Leinster's Debt Dream by Rob White 2019-05-19T17:57:53Z

? Got stuck at level 2? There was an arena with two pigs, but no door or path appeared when I killed them. Other than that, the game was simple but nice. The art and music/sfx were fitting the simplicity of the game. Good work!

BattleType by Sebity 2019-05-20T11:43:37Z

It was a bit confusing but strangely fun! I can see this concept expanded (more characters to summon, more typing challenges, more variations...) into a full game. Good work!

Evil Dungeon by Balance686 2019-05-19T17:26:33Z

Does not run here on my shitty laptop, win7 chrome (other unity games are working).

bloodsucker. by whycardboard 2019-05-19T16:50:12Z

I felt that the square by square movement in real time was not working so well with the stealth mechanic. Maybe square by square and turn based, or real time but free movement? I liked the mood and the facts that the levels are randomly generated. Good work overall!

Crypt Descend by PapriGames 2019-05-19T16:41:00Z

Made it to the end! The game is well executed and well balanced. The simple art is working. Good work!

Evil Current by raoz 2019-05-20T13:55:12Z

When you understand the game it's actually very fun! I would love to see more levels and more puzzles with those mechanics and new ones. Good work!

Pharaoh's Purse by Vanea 2019-05-20T14:40:58Z

Cool game! The tower defense elements were working and the egyptian world was original for this type of game. At the moment it is unclear what are the pros and cons of each weapon. Good mood and good lttle game!

Death Slave by maximo michael 2019-05-20T14:01:45Z

I killed the first wave, but the second one was infinite ... The game has good art and music but the gameplay confused me. Good work anyway!

Shooter on a Budget by Christopher Wong 2019-05-20T11:34:38Z

The game is fun. Unfortunately on my (shitty) laptop I encounter severe slowdowns. Anyway I enjoyed exploring the world and killing the monsters, so good level design. The art was simple but effective. Good work!

LD45 — Start with nothing

10-31 Robbery in Progress by sikosis 2019-10-28T15:17:51Z

Hi, I would suggest you upload your zip to a site like itch.io wo people don't have to download it to play. Cheers!

Hobo Sapiens by CruelMotivator 2019-10-08T11:23:53Z

Awesome graphical mood! Seems like a cool adventure game but I wasn't sure what to do. I would say it is a bit too much slow paced for me. Very good work!

HOBO RAMPAGE by Ntimi 2019-10-08T12:19:35Z

Didn't manage to get through the 3 knife guys. Awesome street of rage mood. Love the music!!! Good work!

GREEN DOG by unima9000 2019-10-28T09:51:21Z

Not really a "game" but I had fun!

Dive Dog by eva 2019-10-28T09:32:24Z

Good execution but I didn't get how it is relate to the theme. Good work anyway!

[NSFW] Naked Escape by Hilvon 2019-10-28T14:17:34Z

Seems interesting but unfortunately I didn't get to do anything because I was just lost in the dark (webgl build).

Ex Nihilo by Caffeinated Psychics 2019-10-28T12:25:43Z

I liked the mood of the game. Not a big fan of survival game but you got the execution right! Good work overall!

Art, Not N.O.T.H.I.N.G. by crefossus 2019-10-28T09:45:55Z

Nice. The controls were a bit too snappy for me. I liked the art! The graphics and the music made a good mood! Good entry.

Orbiter by stuckne1 2019-10-28T12:39:33Z

Original idea. However, I do not see how it related to the theme. Also, a feedback for when you are doing the right thing would be nice. Good work overall!

Consciousness in a jar by Loganou974 2019-10-28T14:44:41Z

First time the graphics didn't appered, second and third time I was stuck in the ground and wasn't able to move. Seems like a nice game from what I saw in your video, unfortunately since I can't play it, I can't rate it :/

The legend of Bit by CG_Fred 2019-10-29T09:06:52Z

I saved the world! Good little game! I especially liked the mood with the simple graphics. Since the sword is glued to the left side of the character, he has a better range if you hit an ennemy that is to your left. Good work!

Rottenville by zanzavar 2019-10-08T10:05:48Z

I didn't manage to kill the big zombie but I had fun! Good work!

The Hunt For KNOWLEDGE by Sode 2019-10-28T11:09:29Z

I had absolutely no ideas what was going on. I manage to climb a bit but it seems very random to me. I would suggest having some hints on screen while playing. I saw in your description that you are 12 years old. I wasn't able to do things like that at your age! Keep up the good work and soon you will be an awesome game creator! Cheers!

Hero Without A Stick by Jonathan Lorenz 2019-10-07T20:40:28Z

@snufkinshat You can attack with left ctrl ... but I don't know how you gonna rotate :/

Hero Without A Stick by Jonathan Lorenz 2019-10-08T09:30:11Z

@velvetlobster You need the buy the first upgrade in the first room in order to attack. Glad you liked my death quote, I wanted something different than "you died" or "game over".

Hero Without A Stick by Jonathan Lorenz 2019-10-08T12:02:45Z

@mimusangel I do agree, it was planned but time ran short and I had to make decisions.

Hero Without A Stick by Jonathan Lorenz 2019-10-08T19:39:19Z

@ristic23 Yes I got many comments about the controls, I will try to be more clear or spend more time on multiple inputs next time. Thank you for your feedback!

Hero Without A Stick by Jonathan Lorenz 2019-10-14T13:51:52Z

@coisne-nathan The damage zone is increased in length and width. But maybe not enough to be felt. Thanks for your comment!

Hero Without A Stick by Jonathan Lorenz 2019-10-28T08:09:31Z

@Aozo Hahaha, good thing you took my mistakes as an extra challenge! Thank you for your comment!

Hero Without A Stick by Jonathan Lorenz 2019-10-28T10:50:59Z

It seems like implementing gamepad controls wasn't the best idea after all. Thank you for playing anyway and commenting! Cheers!

Hero Without A Stick by Jonathan Lorenz 2019-10-29T08:58:54Z

@cg-fred ...don't tell me you reached the end without using the upgrade system ... The last upgrade is the bomb, the coins are useless after that. Thank you for commenting!

Hero Without A Stick by Jonathan Lorenz 2019-10-29T22:02:27Z

@cg-fred Wow, you did a pacifist run!!! You deserve a platinum medal! Cheers!

Modulizer by Kotie 2019-10-28T09:37:08Z

Nice little game. I didn't manage to open the chests. I think the ennemies were too quick in two ways : their speed, and the fact that they jump at you right as the room start. Good work overall!

Broken Broom Adventure! by RubixNoob13 2019-10-28T11:22:42Z

Moving the character around was fun, so you got that part right. It is not really a "game" since you can't win or loose but I recognize the effort on the level generation part. Cheers!

Battleground Command by gamedevkng 2019-10-28T12:31:13Z

Unofortunately with my shitty computer I wasn't able to play without lag. Good effort tho! It seems like there were a lot of ennemies and not that many ammunitions! Cheers!

Beyond the Veil by Wolfrug 2019-10-08T11:52:38Z

Very good mood! Didn't managed to kill the boss. A bit too much text for my taste. You almost have gamepad controls, just the interact button was missing for my xbox360 controller. Not my type of game but very good work overall!

Missing Entry by cyriaque 2019-10-28T11:01:08Z

Interesting but I didn't saw the goal of the game. I was adding entries and the game kept looping. Is there an ending? I liked the mood!

A course at the mall by RadonRaph 2019-10-08T12:07:34Z

My first run gave me a shirt and a guard at the very beginning and my second run gave me all the shirts I needed and I didn't saw any guard. Aaaah, the joy of random generation ^^ Good work and extra point for the humor!

Tubizo and the Dark Detrimental Wizard of Chaos by Rolly 2019-10-28T14:57:41Z

Oh, someone actually thought about azerty users! I saw many games with the same idea, yours is really good. The bird was a little slow for me. The voice acting really improved the mood. Good work!

Grand Prix Nothing by AxelOlivier 2019-10-08T09:51:49Z

Love the MicroMachines vibes! I would have liked some checkpoints (god damn hammers!). Very good work!

Undead Alley by Mungo_ 2019-10-28T09:28:37Z

I liked the graphics. The mood could be increase by a music. Sometimes the upgrades were not clear (is a fish better than a crowbar?). Good work overall!

Objectophile by Augustus 2019-10-28T14:49:58Z

Without a doubt the best landmark dating simulator I've played!

Stealing is Theft by Jeremy Daffix 2019-10-28T09:41:55Z

Funny. I wasn't always clear where to stand to get things. I liked all the lines when you pick up clothes. Good point for humor!

What the Hell! by Mikado 2019-10-28T10:49:27Z

The boss pushed me out of bounds and then the game crashed. The core game is fun. Could use some improvement but good work overall!

Path to UwU by QuantumSno 2019-10-28T14:31:03Z

Not bad for a Unity noob! I liked the simple but effective art. After the picture I found myself lost in the void. Nice little platformer game. Cheers!

SYNTHMAN by Feingehacktes 2019-10-08T11:35:41Z

Felt like an horror game! Never got to pass the rats tho. Weird game but interesting mood!

Darkness is the nothing by Nadya Khromenkova 2019-10-08T12:31:54Z

Good work on the graphics and mood! The controls were a bit clunky. I got stuck after the big hand with the glowing thing. Good work!

Beat Builder by kyle3wynn 2019-10-28T11:25:16Z

Funny! The only complaint I have is that the loop doesn't continue between screens. I would also love to have differents icons corresponding to the different instruments and to be able to mute / unmute them during play! Cheers!

LD46 — Keep it alive

Wildfire by dankar 2020-04-25T15:56:34Z

This was a very satisfying game for me. I played 3 times and had fun each time. Simple but very efficient gameplay. Loved the art too. Good work!

Dr. Kronenberg by Ntimi 2020-04-22T15:39:24Z

A bit confusing but I liked the fantasy of being a mad scientist controlling small monsters to control a big monster! Good work!

The Ludum Dare Flame 🔥 by tobiasw 2020-04-27T19:37:59Z

I saw it and I was like "Ho ok I get it, not gonna play long" ... 30 minutes later I'm fighting for our fire to survive! Also loved the mood regarding of the minimalist look of the game! Good job! Extra point for originality!

EDIT : Turns out I spent two hours on this game! Officially the game I've played the most this LD!

Atlantoid Plantoid by microwerx 2020-04-23T12:31:14Z

I'm not sure I understood everything but I had fun killing those poor fishes! Good work!

Keep it alive by gogu 2020-05-09T19:38:34Z

Nice entry. I liked how it began really simple but then you used clever level design to ramp up the interest. Good work!

The Totally Convenient Feeding Machine by Jonathan Lorenz 2020-05-13T07:22:25Z

@drioniso @phantom-lab @kasperhangard @fachscahfttf @jsmailes @bebadboi @nounka @simonemueller @goutye @kuiefs @louiejams @velucyraptor @alexascher @plopmenz @animaster @paul-sinnett @grigri-games @whismirk @curtamyth @gameovermexico @tobiasw

Thank you guys for taking the time to play, rate and comment on my game! I hope you had as much fun as I had this LD, and I hope to see you guys on october for the next one!

Have a fantastic day! Cheers!

Delivery Hero by Arbosis 2020-04-22T16:18:12Z

I had a good time and I played way more than I though I would have. The gamefeel is very enjoyable! Nice work!

Lively by CJGladback 2020-05-09T19:32:11Z

As you said, this is not really a game. But I give you 5 stars for the spirit because I liked that you said you considered it a success from a learning programmer point of view!

Outdoor Survivor by Wassim 2020-05-04T21:42:27Z

Nice little game, good mood. I didn't quite understood the deal with the energy. Imho it is a bit anoying to be stopped and to have to wait. I understand what you were going for but I don't think it is a good idea to stop the play or restrain his actions. One solution could be that if you are low on energy, you make more noise that can call the cops or something like that. Again, that's only my opinion. Good work overall!

Doctor Lit by Animaster 2020-04-23T12:10:23Z

I wasn't expecting to play as long as I did. The loop is pretty satisfying. A good foundation for a bigger game. Nice work!

DIABLOW: Savior of the Damped by SubtlyDramatic 2020-04-25T16:12:43Z

It is funny to try to dodge the fishes. I would have liked more different challenges(a level with fishes moving verticaly, a level with fixed walls, a level with tons of little devils ...). The sound effects were too loud and aggressive. Good work overall!

PS: I see this is your first game jam. Congratulations to you for this achievement!

Cosmic Felk is Dead! Long Live Cosmic Felk! by Qazikol 2020-04-22T16:46:09Z

Space Gabber? What ? I want to listen to it! This was a nice story driven experience with a dinstinctive mood. Good job! PS : I do prefer the last album of The Hunk Bunch's than Hunkbert's new solo project... But that's just me.

Entitled Kaiju Game by Moritz Jaeger 2020-05-03T11:17:52Z

Yes! I love kaiju games! Very good presentation, I especialy liked the TV News overlay! really had to the mood. I played with a controller and found it a bit weird that the right stick was controlling the camera while walking but when I grab a building, I need to use the left stick to rotate. There were also a bit of confusion when we switch cameras. Overall a good prototype that can evolve into something cool! Congratulations!

droidathon by acgaudette 2020-04-23T19:45:00Z

Damn, you were not lying about the epilepsy warning! Cool game! I loved the graphics, it made the world very unique! Good job!

Wheels of Rage: Enter the Scrapstorm by Gunnbju 2020-04-23T11:21:04Z

I liked your idea and the universe, made me think about the game Convoy.

However, I found it difficult to analyse each action available to me and the the actions of the ennemies at the same time. Maybe that's what you were going for.

I would increase icons readibility or make it that either some movement skills or some shooting skills are always at the same place. Just to have something immediate if the player has to quickly react to.

Another option is to make it turn based...

Anyway, good work!

Keep The Spirit Stone Allive by Ausstein 2020-05-08T22:06:20Z

Didn't really get what I was supposed to do. I just spawned flower, trees and animals randomly and my tree of life never lost a single health point. However, this was a relaxing experience and even if there was no challenge, I had fun just upgrading the nature and watching it. So good gamefeel but needs more challenge imo. Nice work!

Keep The Spirit Stone Allive by Ausstein 2020-05-08T22:14:53Z

Hooo, didn't saw it. It changes everything! Thanks for the tips :)

The Ultimate Chicken Toaster by LeBossMax2 2020-04-23T19:57:33Z

Cool game! The mechanic is simple but it worked, the only thing lacking was a chicken sound when he gets roasted. Good job!

Run! Skeliboi by Piturnah 2020-04-28T05:01:40Z

A simple but efficient infinite runner. Congratulations to you guys on making your first game in team!

Keep it burning by Leon Oost 2020-04-23T12:52:23Z

Simple but fun little game. I would add an health bar for the fire or something to tell the player more clearly the state of the fire. Good work overall!!

Lighthouse by Lukvasando 2020-04-25T16:23:34Z

Cool concept, it worked! At the end the ghosts got me but I had fun! Good job!

Coal Of Duty by Empheon 2020-04-22T16:52:16Z

Cool game. A clue for players to know when the "coal houses" are being attacked would be cool. Good job!

Insanitus by Saulo Rosart 2020-05-03T11:08:43Z

Nice little game. The controls are a bit stiff but worked ok. I would have liked more dangers for the player (ennemies, spikes, lava) because right now the game felt a bit easy. Good work overall!

Fly Trap Dash by Ben Toosey 2020-04-23T13:02:40Z

Good job! A simple idea that could work, but I would not give the player 50 flies to catch from the get-go. Maybe start with a small level with only 10 flies, then a bigger level...

Prometheus by Eugenik 2020-05-04T21:33:37Z

Nice little game. The highlight was definitively the mood (graphics and sounds). I did not understood what "reload" was suppose to do. I would have liked a bit of diversity in the challenge. Good work overall!

Mr. Cheesy by SAVVU 2020-04-28T05:35:10Z

What a loveable avatar! He run for his lifewhile sliding and having fun! Also love the pasta plate that appears when you take hits. It is red so it reminded me of blood, which is fitting. Good job!

Extraterrestrial Dinosaur Savior by Trace 2020-04-28T05:15:36Z

Now that's a title that makes me wanna click! Cool little game, fluid and fun. I think a "wave" system (like tower defence) would help the player having achievable goals and give short term motivations. Cheers!

Keep IT Alive by bollwerk 2020-04-25T16:35:16Z

Ho my god what a stressful life! I can't take the calls from my boss anymore, it is too much... Help...

Good and funny execution tho!

Little Restaurant of Horrors by Goldfish Games 2020-04-23T12:21:42Z

That was a nice little story driven game. I was expecting the plant to grow enormous and take over the restaurant! Good work!

Keep it alive by Sk1nnydave 2020-05-03T10:53:23Z

I liked the idea and graphics. However I felt there is an issue with the rythm of the game. I would have liked something quicker. Imho the game would gain fun by killing the ennemies quicker and having more ennemies. Maybe an ability to dig and/or to refill the digged tiles. Good work overall!

Kusa by Oliver Morrish 2020-04-22T16:58:27Z

I liked the graphical representation of the goat! Had to turn the music down because it was driving me crazy. Never before have I played grass in a game! Nice game overall!

CRAZ by RexTGun 2020-04-22T16:32:49Z

Good game. The simple aesthetic suit the game. I wish for a "enemies left" counter. Good work overall!

The Harmless Prison Escape by MickGerritsen 2020-04-23T10:58:39Z

Cool and clever game! Some ideas for an upgraded version:

-The cops have turret AI. You could roll with it and play on the "stupid cop" stereotype or create different types of "cops" with different AI.

-Would be nice to have a some kind of level variation, like obstacles or different shape / size of rooms.

-For my personal taste, I would put more stealth inspiration in the game (possibility to lure enemies, enemy patrol, hiding spots,...)

Good work!

Bug Smashers! (HTML5) by Plopmenz 2020-04-27T21:33:47Z

A nice little game! Simple but fun. Good job!

Save the torch! by eduardogacn 2020-04-28T05:32:09Z

Well, this is a very slick and polish presentation so congratulation for that! However, I think there is a difficulty curve problem. I tried many times to defeat the red skull at the level one, but in the end, nerves broke before his health. Imho this "boss" is too early. Depends on player's skill of course. Very good job overall!

Save the torch! by eduardogacn 2020-04-28T09:08:02Z

@eduardogacn Just to clarify my comment, I don't think the level in question (level 1 with the boss) is too hard, I just think it happened too early. Cheers!

Beat-o-matic by greizgh 2020-05-07T20:09:58Z

??? I don't get it at all. How are you supposed to know when to press space?

LD47 — Stuck in a loop

Stuck on Mars by Emkani 2020-10-23T13:02:29Z

Hi! You should remove the "index.html" from the webgl link. Right now it is unclickable. I liked the mood of the game but having to break to wait for the sun is a bit against what I think a car game should be about : going fast. Other than that, good work!

The infinity - Pool bar by eptwalabha 2020-10-24T12:12:27Z

Usually not a big fan of narative games but this one got me hooked and I didn't regret giving it a try! I liked the minimalist graphics and the mood of the game. Also liked the plot twist! I got stuck after going back to my appartement but I enjoyed the experience. Congratulation, great work!

The Loop by minibobbo 2020-10-23T13:10:24Z

Short but efficient game! I had fun, it didn't waste my time, and since it was a samll game, each aspect of it were well polished! I would hope more dev (including me) take example of this scope! Good work!

waveloop by radmars 2020-10-22T15:18:49Z

I don't really know if it is a game, but I definitively had fun. I would have loved to have a way to go back to previously completed "rounds", so the player could make his "mix" of the music. Good job!

Get the Pizza! 🍕 by gnx 2020-10-10T17:11:29Z

If it's a game about pizza, I immediatly want to play it! Simple but efficient game. It was a bit headscratching but not too much. I also liked the fact that it wasn't too long. Only thing I didn't liked is the fact that you need to be pixel perfctly aligned with pathes to use them or you get stuck on the wall. Other than that, good work!

Memoirs by Virtual Turtle Studio 2020-10-10T17:41:37Z

Narrative games aren't really my thing but I really lvoed the graphics and the mood they brought to the game. I haven't much to say about the game but congratulations for the awesome graphics!

Evolooption by WiseClock 2020-10-26T08:14:42Z

Cool little game. The voices were funny. At that speed I didn't had enough time to see if the pickups were good or bad. Don't know it it was intentional. If not, the object could use like an aura or something (red for bad, green for good). Good work!

StarHamster 64 by Zashers 2020-10-10T17:16:48Z

Cool game! It was a bit difficult to be precise. I would have liked the soft zone of the camera to be thiner and the cursor to be locked in the windows. 5 Stars for humour! I love how you integrated the tutorial via hamsters conversations. Good work!

Psychopath Basement by Corbak 2020-10-10T16:59:30Z

Very interesting idea! Could be expanded to a more completed experience. Could be improved by having the possibility to advance to a certain moment of the timeline. Having to wait for the other members to do their stuffs before doing yours isn't really fun. Good work overall!

Escape From Rotting Town by Jonathan Lorenz 2020-10-06T07:14:52Z

@guardaro Thank you for your kind feedback! The axis is inverted for me too in the build (but not in the editor) and for the music, thank you for mentionning, I was so stressed by the time running short and the features I had to cut that I didn't even saw that problem. I will work on that today. Thanks again for commenting! Cheers!

Escape From Rotting Town by Jonathan Lorenz 2020-10-07T10:10:00Z

@wouters I will have a look at implementing keyboard controls. The graphics are not from me, they are assets from Polyperfect! (EDIT :Done, you can now play with a keyboard. WASD, O, P)

Escape From Rotting Town by Jonathan Lorenz 2020-10-10T17:04:23Z

@flaterectomy @nodli Thanks for your feedback. Totally agree on the responsivness of the character that could be improved.

Didn't found the bug about punching cultists trough the fences, so thanks for that.

Escape From Rotting Town by Jonathan Lorenz 2020-10-10T17:45:49Z

@stellarbeargames @spawncampgames @quinn-patrick Thank you for taking the time to play and comment guys! The cultists punching each other was a bug but I found it funny so I left it :)

Escape From Rotting Town by Jonathan Lorenz 2020-10-10T17:50:00Z

@elemel Thank you for commenting! Didn't had enough time to put the loop related mechanics unfortunately. I think I had too much fun and took too much time creating the level :)

@onkel-mo Thank you for commenting! I imagine the punch just knock off the enemies, but when they fall, they actually hit their heads to the ground and bleed to death ^^

Escape From Rotting Town by Jonathan Lorenz 2020-10-12T16:00:22Z

@morcado @shambles @virtual-turtle-studio @edalbung Thanks for your feedback guys!

@morcado Thanks for the bug report!

@virtual-turtle-studio You are absolutely right. The money mechanic was supposed to be part of a more complex system, with waves of ennemies. But yes, in the current state of the game, it doesn't make sense.

Escape From Rotting Town by Jonathan Lorenz 2020-10-23T20:34:03Z

@firetwin I cutted every corner I could to gain time. The camera movement is done with cinemachine, controls are handled by unity's new input system, 3d models are bought assets, animation are from mixamo applied to my models, sfxs are made by combining / mixing / eqing some preexisting sounds, I have already done movement relative to camera and attack /damage scripts for other jams so I had a look at those... I was hoping to have enough time to do more but in the end I didn't. Thanks for playing and commenting!

Escape From Rotting Town by Jonathan Lorenz 2020-10-23T20:36:11Z

@hgcummings Glad you liked it! The cultists punching each other wasn't intentional but I find it funny so I left it. I liked how you call it a "tactical element" :) Thanks for playing and commenting!

Escape From Rotting Town by Jonathan Lorenz 2020-10-24T19:14:12Z

@doot Thank you for your encouraging words! And thank you for playing! Cheers!

DJ LoopMan by Amar Ravi 2020-10-25T10:35:34Z

The idea is good but I felt that there were some issues with the rythm. Sometimes I felt like I was in rythm, but the recording part didn't work, other times I felt I was completely off but the recording part worked. Also for the second track, the melody wasn't in rythm with the beat. Don't know if it is a lag issue or something else. Good idea anyway!

DISTORT by SuperGamersGames 2020-10-25T10:25:45Z

Man that was hard! Especially when the lasers arrived. I liked the game boy mood of the game, the fxs and sfxs really added to the mood. Very good work!

SPACE ORBIT by Guldfisk 2020-10-22T15:24:03Z

It's a pretty hard game, but I loved the mood of it! A little note about the html version on itch : I would suggest you increase the viewport height of about 20 px and uncheck the "fullscreen" button of itch. Good job!

Sad Knight by HumphreysMedia 2020-10-25T10:18:45Z

Very good graphics! Too bad there were no sfxs, it would enhance the mood greatly! Good thing you added the objectives list. Unfortunately there were some thing I never manage to do, like burning the doll. Good work overall!

Escape from Arachnea! by Guardaro 2020-10-07T10:07:29Z

I hate those small green spiders! Nice little game. I like the fact that there are multiple weapons, it adds to the replay value! I would have liked to have a crosshair to make it clear where you aim. The music was cool too. The only criticism I have is the disparity of the graphisms between the pixel art of the spiders and the non pixel art of the background. Good work overall!

The Closed Gate by EnzoUP 2020-10-22T15:08:42Z

This is a very clever game! I never figured out how to push the button on level 9. I loved how you made the most out of a few mechanics. Minimalist but definitively well done! Good job!

One Slicing Minute by Edalbung 2020-10-10T17:34:56Z

Simple but cool game. Was a bit laggy for my shitty computer. I liked the "upgrade and try again" mechanic. Thank you for including azerty controls! Good work overall!

Shape Escape - A minimalist strategy game by S J Palmer 2020-10-25T09:48:05Z

At first it seems like a relaxing game, but when you play it, you quickly meet stressfull situations. Nice little game! I know that if you loose all your shapes you loose the game, but how can you win it? Is there an end?

Beelieve by Diego Teran 2020-10-10T16:45:07Z

I didn't really understood the logic of the game and why sometimes the spiders started chasing me and sometimes not but I managed to beat it by tries and errors. A tutorial screen explaining the AI of the spiders would be a plus imho. Good work overall!

This Will Be My Cycle by don-tnowe 2020-10-22T15:29:13Z

Man those flies are evil! This is a really great implementation of the theme! Would be cool to have more room-related mechanics between levels, like change a room, randomize all rooms, invert rooms position ... Good job!

Lonely Blob by SinusQuell 2020-10-22T15:37:52Z

Clever level design. I liked how you are encouraged to explore the world with the litlle secrets here and there. Lacks sfxs to improve the mood. Good work overall!

Concentric by Scraggle 2020-10-26T08:09:49Z

A simple game, relaxing and nice. I was hoping for more choices, right now you just match shapes and colors. The game could use some more mechanics. Like having certain shapes that count for more points but you have a certain amount of time before they disapear. Also, there was a resolution problem, I couldn't see the entire circle. Good work overall!

In a Globe of Death by vcarlos 2020-10-26T08:21:48Z

Pretty simple game. I supposed this is your first game jam. Good job for submitting! For your next jam I would suggest to investigate on things like music, start screen, background, juice... For now the game is a bit "nude". Good work anyway!

LD48 — Deeper and deeper

Dig Box, Dig! by Criobite 2021-05-13T17:00:08Z

Simple concept, but effective game. Not a big fan of the "one button press per digging", my fingers got tired pretty quickly. Also, I would have liked some sort of radar to guide me to the nearest blocks.

Deep fishing by Minemes 2021-05-13T17:34:57Z

I don't know if there was a goal other than just fishing, but I actually had fun playing this! Good work

One-Butt Alien Corridor by PeachTreeOath 2021-04-30T12:20:00Z

A simple but efficient concept, I had fun playing it. There is potential for a more complete game! I would add a "turning speed" upgrade and change the icons of guns by the number of the marines (so I don't have to think too long about what button to press). Good work!

Infinity Driller by jkniest 2021-05-15T15:03:20Z

FIrst I didn't understood, then I saw the upgrade menu button! I liked the upgrade system, and the fact that it makes the game more fun to play with time. Nice one!

Digzilla by Bernhard 2021-05-13T17:26:15Z

Got stuck several times by rocks falling behind me. I would have liked an elevator at the opposite side of the map. Good work overall!

D. R. I. L. L. by Invixel 2021-05-15T14:20:46Z

Hey, that's actually pretty original! Simple game, but good execution!

Welcome to the Factory by epb9000 2021-05-15T14:56:27Z

At first, I didn't really liked the graphics. But they were, in fact, consistents! I also liked the sloppy controls of the ball of fluff. Cool game!

Crushing Blocks Till You Drop by Jonathan Lorenz 2021-04-28T17:23:38Z

Ho, didn't noticed that, thanks for the feedback @doctortm !

Crushing Blocks Till You Drop by Jonathan Lorenz 2021-05-13T19:49:24Z

@collin-visser I agree with you, the jam version ends pretty quickly. I added more stuffs in the postjam version and it makes for longer (and more interesting) runs. Thanks for the feedback!

Crushing Blocks Till You Drop by Jonathan Lorenz 2021-05-13T22:30:05Z

Thank you @yaroslav-kravtsov ! When really simply implementedlike this I really think the time put in it is worth it!

Crushing Blocks Till You Drop by Jonathan Lorenz 2021-05-13T22:30:43Z

@lilkrit Sorry about that! Fixed in the postjam version. Thanks for your feedback!

Crushing Blocks Till You Drop by Jonathan Lorenz 2021-05-15T08:43:15Z

@empty-set There are indeed some issues with the physics that I wasn't able to solve properly. I also liked your thought about the fact that there aren't many option to set up groups of blocks. I will keep that I mind for the next iteration of the game. Thank you for your feedback!

Crushing Blocks Till You Drop by Jonathan Lorenz 2021-05-15T20:25:36Z

@hunter-x Good job, Mr Driller was indeed my inspiration for this game! I'm happy someone spotted it! Thanks for your comment!

@yword Doing Multiple types of blocks to give player more diversity and more challenge was the plan but I didn't managed to do it in time. In the end I chose to do "mini missions" objectives in the post jam version. Works pretty well! Thank you for your comment!

Crushing Blocks Till You Drop by Jonathan Lorenz 2021-05-17T09:39:38Z

Thanks for the feedback @epb9000! I didn't thought about visual impaired people, thanks to you I will keep that in mind! Maybe set the blocks to a more fluorescent color and keep the background that darkish color. Thanks!

Crushing Blocks Till You Drop by Jonathan Lorenz 2021-05-17T10:17:55Z

Thanks for the feedback @youk, glad you liked it!

Crushing Blocks Till You Drop by Jonathan Lorenz 2021-05-17T10:19:38Z

@peace-of-cake-games Hahaha, yes 438 meters is pretty decent! I once managed to pas the 1000 meters, but then the UI broke because it can't contain a hughe number. Thanks for the feedback!

Crushing Blocks Till You Drop by Jonathan Lorenz 2021-05-17T10:21:10Z

@poorwill I agree with your remaks about the physic system and the controls. Ultimately I need to set up controller inputs. Thanks for your feedback and for checking out the post jam version as well!

Bunny Bunny Dig Dig by ZakAmana 2021-04-30T12:00:05Z

I'm amazed by the quality of the game for a compo entry! I think you already have all the feedback you need :) Very good work!

Tower of Darkness by Benjamin123 2021-05-13T16:53:35Z

Not bad for a little jam game. I'm in azerty so the controls were a bit awkward.

You are Queen by BrettSchiff 2021-05-13T17:21:40Z

Pretty relaxing! I was actually a bit disapointed that it ended so quickly. Good work!

Compulsive Diggers by Rolly 2021-04-28T17:21:32Z

Some many dead dwarves ... Too bad they keep destroying the path I was making for them! A fun game, special point for the voice acting! It is definitively nice for a compo entry! Good work!

Foldception by Thulium Games 2021-05-15T15:32:09Z

I love the idea! Very interesting interpretation of the theme! I didn't understood what to do with the pong mini game tho. I will remeber this one, good work!

Magmatic Descent by Vanea 2021-05-15T14:04:35Z

I liked the idea but I didn't liked having to die multiple times in order to know the correct path. Maybe a subtle hint for the player, like having skulls near the wrong path.

Artifact Rescue by Tiranice 2021-05-15T14:01:21Z

This is a pretty chill experience. I liked the idea but didn't get to finish the game because it was a bit too repetitive imho. Also, at one point I lost one of my workman. It would be cool to have a way to locate all of your crew members without having to "scan" the entire map. Good work overall!

Aero-Spéléo by Aune 2021-05-15T14:45:33Z

It is a simple but well done game. Good scoping! I would have liked some bonuses or other stuffs to collect along the way. Other than that, good work!

Aero-Spéléo by Aune 2021-05-15T20:20:20Z

@aune That was just a thought, to give players rapid choices. "Do I take the safe path to the left and escape the falling piano, or do I go the dangerous path to the right to get the bonus?"

Bonuses could be things like having a one use shield, a few seconds of slowmo, a "destroy all falling objects" bomb... Could also be collectables "Find the golden kitten in each level".

Gold Rush by Thrawn911 2021-05-13T18:02:28Z

Fun little game. It could use a tutorial part with unlimited time. And maybe a difficulty setting where you can choose to play with more time. Other than that, it's cool!

Necro Digger by gnaro 2021-05-13T17:16:40Z

I liked the idea of being able to raise the deads! However the zombies were a bit slow, so I had to do some of their work. A good idea that can be expanded!

DMG-001 by Adry 2021-05-13T17:10:14Z

That's not bad for a little jam game. The hero is a bit stiff however. If you want to spend time on improving the game, I would recommend to start with the movements, to make them feel good.

Dreadnought Parlance & the Magic Pearl by DecrementedPalindrome 2021-05-15T14:16:42Z

I didn't understand waht you were supposed to do. I try descending, destroying a mine as quicly as I can and going up for oxygen, but it never worked. I don't know if I missed something about the oxygen. Other than that, I liked the idea.

Where's the water? by Labete 2021-05-15T15:09:42Z

I got stuck in a hole and was never able to jump out of it. However, I liked the storytelling aspect and the cute graphics. The music was crazy. Made me laugh at first, but then drove me crazy! Good work!

Dig Deeper by Donamougou 2021-05-13T17:57:05Z

Cool little game. I would have liked to have some feedback about the "destruction level" of the blocks. At the beginning I thought I wasn't able to dig. Good work overall!

Deep In Yourself by Poppy Entertainment 2021-05-13T17:04:29Z

Good graphics but cryptic game. I didn't really know what to do so I got lost in the cave and then died on some spikes. The player could use some hints about what to do.

Crashdown by iellswo 2021-05-15T15:17:56Z

Interesting to have all of the layers of the dungeon displayed at the same time. I don't know if the levels are randomly generated at the moment, but this could make a cool roguelite game! Good work!

Deep Forest by Hjorthen 2021-05-15T14:51:56Z

Since the flmaethrower wasn't really effective, I switched to another tactic : running and avoiding ennemies. Worked for a while, however, once you made a mistake, you have a whole army of red capsules beating your ass! Nice little game, especially for newcomers!

LD49 — Unstable

crane-simulator by eptwalabha 2021-10-20T12:23:04Z

Your game is actually pretty similar of what I intended to do for the jam :) A simple construction game with some puzzle elements, nice and relaxed. I found the tower I was constructing surprisingly stable ^^ Good work!

Family Little Horror Show by ashtheevil 2021-10-20T09:59:35Z

Really liked this one! A point'n'click style adventure with a nice darkish mood. And music gave the tone nicely. Not much else to say but I had fun, thank you!

Soul Quest by negator2vc 2021-10-20T09:48:20Z

I missed being able to move the character. Also, didn't understand what made me change form from time to time. The challenge seems a bit too easy for my taste. I liked the mood induced by the graphics, but a bit of audio would be cool. A fine little game overall

Soul Quest by negator2vc 2021-10-20T10:01:32Z

@negator2vc oh ok, got it! I thought it was something like that. I also got features in my list that didn't make it to the game because of time constraint ;)

Animal Farm by nervous-composers 2021-10-20T12:33:14Z

Great art style ... but I had no idea what I was doing. I just clicked and read some part of stories, while my "lumber" meter went up and down. So good graphics but definitively needs explanations or a tutorial. Good work overall!

Speedboat Alchemy by Brandon Hare 2021-10-20T10:37:20Z

That was simple but very fun! At first I didn't know what to do to reload, but when I understood I had fun! Unfortunately my potato pc couldn't handle the amount of frogs, so it was a bit laggy. Overall a simple but effective game! Very good work!

Unstable Ninja by daul 2021-10-20T10:20:29Z

Good old Synty's assets! I liked that you mixed Qwop with a ninja game. I admit I just mashed the buttons until the enemies are dead, but it was fun! A simple concept but it always makes me laugh :p Good work!

Shaky Shack by Brusi 2021-10-20T09:43:02Z

Very cool graphics and mood. I think the game could benefit from a counter of potion succesfully made. It would increase replayability in order for players to try to beat their own high score. Good work!

LIFT-UP MACHINE (nightly version) by Avzgui 2021-10-20T12:48:20Z

Wow, this is definitively the most unstable game I saw in this jam! I can even go out of the screen limit! Good concept but I felt like everything just felt from my machine. Sometimes I manage to catch a wardrobe, but it felt a few seconds later. Had fun with the wacky physics ^^

Super Stable Tower Constructor by Jonathan Lorenz 2021-10-05T09:32:33Z

@federico-giorgi That was what I was aiming for : a casual game that you could play on your phone. Glad you enjoyed it!

Super Stable Tower Constructor by Jonathan Lorenz 2021-10-07T08:58:02Z

@cinar I didn't felt it was very fun, but maybe it's because I had more features in mind. Thank you for your comment!

Super Stable Tower Constructor by Jonathan Lorenz 2021-10-11T11:55:42Z

@morhailen Yep, mine turned out to be just a pile a unstable building parts too. Glad you had fun anyway!

Super Stable Tower Constructor by Jonathan Lorenz 2021-10-11T11:57:19Z

@bloodycoin I would have liked it too. I intended to implement a "earthquake" mechanic and to give the player the possibility to choose parts. However, you know how it goes ... time

Glown-Up by very dark lord 2021-10-20T10:07:35Z

The game was actualy quite mysterious, but I had fun exploring the little world you constructed and watching the workers do their job. I tried to imitate them but I'm not sure if it was good or bad. Had fun throwing nuclear wastes around anyway :) Good work overall!

Into the Cone Zone by Cookie Dragon 2021-10-20T12:49:45Z

Really wanted to try this one but unfortunately it didn't worked on my potato computer :/

Nice Work, Nimrod! by Teo Miklethun 2021-10-20T11:43:22Z

A simple but surprisingly effective concept. After my first try I was like "ok, I saw the game" ... but I ended up retrying multiple times. So in the end, I would say that the fun factor is definitively here! Also, good scope for a jam. Nice work!

GONZO ALCHEMY! by kristinamay 2021-10-20T09:38:15Z

I liked the art style and the mood, but unfortunately I didn't managed to sell anything to customers. I succesfully brewed 1 potion, but it was never asked to me. The rest of the mixes I made resulted in failure. I think the game could benefit from a first tutorial phase where you lead the player to each actions he must made, step by step. Good work overall!

Kei26 - Union Game Engine by Fupi 2021-10-20T11:59:55Z

I like the meta side of the game, I honestly thought it was a legitimate game engine and that the game was uploaded by a noob who wouldn't rename his own project. However, I'm not sure what I was supposed to do in the "editor" part of the game. Had fun playing the simple platformers. The iterations of the games were pretty close of my own gamedev journey (2d, 2d with more stuffs, 3d , jams...) It's very much a game for gamedevs, but I enjoyed that. Was hoping for a happy ending, but the ending is more ambiguous. Very good work!

Warp Glider by Koolruz 2021-10-20T11:14:14Z

Imho this is the perfect scope for a LD game. A simple but effective concept that you can explore throught a lot of small (but quite challenging) levels. Very good work!

Hellblocks by Thooom 2021-10-20T12:54:08Z

Made me think about Tricky Towers. The physic of the objects was a bit odd, but it somehow participated to the weirdness of the game. So not a big deal. Overall a nice simple game, good work!

Purps by Str8griz 2021-10-20T10:27:48Z

Made me think about Enter The Gungeon. A nice little game, but I must say the difficulty of the bullet hell part is real! Was rolling around to try to avoid being shots ... but still got shot a lot ^^ Good work overall!

Operation Meteor Shower by Seracrooce 2021-10-20T12:38:35Z

Wow, the asteroid view gets pretty psychedelic when you rotate! I would say that, for me, the highlight of the game, the thing that made me smile all along are the voices of the asteroids. You get an extra point in humour! Good work!

BALANCING ACT by anchorlight 2021-10-20T10:13:32Z

So sad to start a game and see it is in memory of a good doggo :( The gameplay was ok but I felt like the enemies's AI was not at it best ^^' I think you have a good premice for a complete game but it needs a bit of work to increase the fun. Also, wasn't a big fan of the music. Good work overall!

You Gonna Cry? by Legolula 2021-10-20T11:37:19Z

I liked the design of Kevin, wasn't expecting that! The controls and the physics are a bit awkward, but I like how you switch between two states (crying and angry). A nice concept that could use a bit of polish in the controls imho. Good work!

A Towering Climb by Hefka 2021-10-20T12:17:19Z

Firts death was at level 10. I think you could increase the difficulty of the game. Overall taht was a fun little platformer. The changing gameplay events were nice additions that broke the monotony of the game. Good work overall!

Rook Bishop Knight by nshbae 2021-10-20T12:41:19Z

? I don't know what happened, but when I click on play, Firefox tells me that "Your browser does not support WebGL.". But I've played numerous games made with unity on my browser since the beginning of the jam. Strange.

Shopping Spree! by monkybusines 2021-10-20T12:29:40Z

A fun little game that plays a bit like a racing game. I especially liked the music! Too bad there were no sfxs. Good work !

A Stable Life by baconharemthug 2021-10-20T11:21:36Z

I liked the idea of having to investigate, but since I'm kind of an ampatient gamer, I found myself just clicking everywhere in hope of triggering the right event (that's more or less how I play point'n'click games too). So, not a game for me, but I appreciated the mood and the minimalistic 3D models.

Clowning Around by Casteled 2021-10-20T12:25:14Z

You definitively capture the circus mood, with the music and the crowd reacting to your performances. Not much to say, but it's a decent and relatively fun game :) Good work!

Toil & Trouble by eveenova 2021-10-20T11:31:42Z

I liked the concept, but I never was able to cook anything that didn't blew up. The art style is good and the overall mood of the game is great. Overall I can't say I had much fun because I didn't really understood how to play. Maybe a tutorial that help you create your first potion could be useful for first timers. Good work overall!

Unstable pathing by arachnid56 2021-10-20T11:24:50Z

A simple puzzle game, not spectacular but enjoyable. Would have like to see more twists with the gameplay and the mechanics. And a bit of audio too. Good work overall!

Unstable Core by Fluorescent 2021-10-20T11:49:49Z

I thought that the game was a bit hard to read. Too much infos on the HUD imho. I wandered around the station, trying to charge stuffs but I'm not sure I did it right. I think that in order to not scare the players, you should start with a very small and simple level. Maybe without all those infos on the UI. So that we can get use to the systems. Also, the music was pretty good, but there was an instrument that seems out of tune, and that was very deconcentrating. Good work anyway!

LD50 — Delay the inevitable

Wigglesmith by Kukiol 2022-04-15T11:24:36Z

Really liked the graphics and the mood. The gameplay was funny but a bit repetetitiv imho. Good work overall!

Akubi by Almax 2022-04-15T12:37:43Z

Really liked the graphics and the mood of the game. A simple concept but it works. Good job!

Volcano Maintenance by jefvel 2022-04-15T12:55:00Z

Fun little game! I liked the upgrade system, it really makes you want to retry with another "build". Good work!

Marin and The Sinking Kingdom by boaheck-artgent 2022-04-15T13:41:50Z

Cool little puzzle platformer. The controls were pleasent, the mood created by the music and graphics feels great. Good submission!

Crab Battle by cottontshirtz 2022-04-15T10:50:56Z

Hahaha! I laughed at the final reveal :D Good job! Would love to play with a controller but the sensibility of the right stick (for rotating) isn't sensible enough.

Sorting Algorithm by lectvs 2022-04-15T11:40:38Z

I'm genuinely impressed by the mood you managed to put into this vey simple concept. This is a perfect jam submission. Short but polished, with a simple concept but pushed to its limit. Very good work, congratulations!

Tatertot Towers by Cosmic Adventure Squad 2022-04-15T11:15:37Z

Very cool tower defense game! The graphics and the mood are very chill, but the gameplay isn't. Didn't beat the owl but had a great time! Good job!

Routine Medical Examination by Iamsodarncool 2022-04-15T13:37:07Z

Nice little platformer. The graphics were pleasent, the controls too ... but i think that the music loop is too short, it gets repetitive too quickly. I muted it after a few minutes. Good job overall, and bonus point for the humour!

Across Death Street by Jonathan Lorenz 2022-04-14T13:48:36Z

@jm-janzen Sorry about that. Forgot to tick "public" on the itchio page ^^' It is now fixed, thank you for letting me know.

Across Death Street by Jonathan Lorenz 2022-04-26T09:50:32Z

@bloodycoin Someone actually reached the end :) Thanks for the great suggestions! Next LD I'll just (try to) scope down ^^

Different Strokes by Scott Steffes 2022-04-15T10:45:54Z

Wow, I didn't expected to spend so much time on this game. Surprisingly nice experience. It have a Nintendo-ish vibe. Very well done!

Get Out Me Dungeon! by BlooAlain 2022-04-15T12:22:16Z

This was a nice experience. This feels like it couyld be expanded into a more complex game. Very good work!

Save The Dinosuars by ScalphaMission 2022-04-15T13:51:48Z

I saved the dinosaurs :) When I launched the game, I thought I was only gonna play for a very short time, but it turns out the game is very satisfying! Good job on making such a simple concept work in a pleasent way! Only issue, the UI didn't scale properly when I put the game in full screen. Good work!

The Endless Night by Arivenzys 2022-04-15T11:03:11Z

I tried to skip the tutorial, that was a bad idea ... Nice game and mood, bonus point for the graphics. Good job!

Click to Continue by Daniel Foutz 2022-04-15T11:19:14Z

I knew ... yet I clicked. Thanks for the laugh :)

Battery Low by Milestone Games 2022-04-15T13:05:20Z

I was actually expecting more levels. The game is nice but a bit too short imho. Good job anyway!

Somnokid by Saturnyoshi 2022-04-15T10:27:33Z

Very polished game! The concept is interesting. I would have like to be able to shoot in different directions because the enemies were always coming in an angle where I could not shoot. Good work!

1 Man 6 Bullets by Raphaeltan 2022-04-15T10:19:48Z

Very fun game! Short gameplay sessions that makes you want to try again. Would love to see that with some roguelite elements like character progression between tries. Good job!

Highrail to hell by BadPiggy 2022-04-15T12:00:35Z

Nice little game. I felt like the web version was indeed sometimes at inconsistent speed. Had fun anyway, good job!

LD51 — Every 10 seconds

Crowding Cavern by graebor 2022-10-21T13:35:12Z

I really liked the mood and the music! Maybe a bit of a tutorial could help, I spent a lot of time thinking I could only draw one card at a time. Good work!

autoball by torcado 2022-10-21T13:37:56Z

Oh, this makes me want to play Peggle again. Very simple but effective entry. Good work!

Office, Time loop and The End of the World by zimennik 2022-10-21T18:26:45Z

Very nice fast paced puzzle game! I would have liked a small break between the runs, so I can catch my breath and think about my moves. Good work!

ROAD TXTR by congusbongus 2022-10-21T15:07:28Z

This is also how I respond to texts in real life : I try to find the quickest way to end the conversation. I would have aliked a free mode where you can just run over all the pedestrians ^^ Good work!

Auto Parker by BathPirate 2022-10-21T14:27:19Z

Unique and interesting game mechanic! Made me think about a belgian game : You Suck At Parking. Not at all the same pacing tho. Good work!

TENSEC tactics by praleks 2022-10-21T17:43:25Z

Very nice mood, but not enough choices. Just having to choose between two cards, maybe having another "action pont" that you can use in either moving or healing your squad ... Perhaps also something to do in between the card drop, like the ability to click on enemies to hurt them or slow them down. Good work overall!

Tenjutsu by deepnight 2022-10-16T15:16:53Z

Excellent! I would have liked to have the option to turn while attacking. Very good work!

Near Death Sentence by jefvel 2022-10-21T14:36:21Z

Actually difficult imho. Didn't manage to go very far. However, I loved watching the baddies fight after I'm dead. Good work!

Ten Second First Dates by Rose 2022-10-21T14:02:14Z

It's more stressful than what I thought! Simple but nice game, good work!

Game Name by Strega 2022-10-18T13:18:06Z

That was fun! Enough variety in the mini games to keep me playing. I would have liked a few seconds to understand what control I should use before the mini games starts. Good work!

Ten-Second Murder by lectvs 2022-10-16T14:59:11Z

I liked it, very simple but enjoyable. Good work!

Pancake Simulator by alec 2022-10-21T13:40:59Z

I liked the idea, however I encouter some issues. I wasn't able to pick up some small pancakes, it made the screen shakes. Was a bit better in full screen but still had some issues. Other thatn that, good work! This game made me hungry :)

miam by yopox 2022-10-21T14:19:32Z

Oh waw it gets difficult pretty quickly! Maybe having new ingredients being added to the board after the player has finished some simple commands. Or else the game gets hard even for players who didn't managed to finish a simple burger. Good work, now I'm hungry!

Shadow Blood by Dssdiego 2022-10-21T17:55:35Z

I like playing as a flying skull bat but I had no idea how to get to the exit. I think the tutorial need more explanations. How are we supposed to traverse the shadows?

Smack Demon by Firebelley 2022-10-16T15:34:51Z

Interesting, I liked the puzzle aspect of it. Good work!

Sunk Cost Fallacy by Mara 2022-10-21T15:13:31Z

I liked the idea of having to find hidden objects, but it's not always clear what is interactable and what isn't. Sometimes I'm like "ok I found everything, I just need to run out of here ... where do I click?" Good work overall!

10 Second Mixtape by Scott Steffes 2022-10-18T13:09:45Z

Love the idea. It was challenging to find tracks that were not random noise. Good work!

Renew my Subscription by cassowary 2022-10-21T13:56:17Z

Oh I'm not build for this kind of puzzle games, I got stuck pretty early. However I do appreciate the concept and the mood of the game. Good work!

Carton Carrier by dimlight 2022-10-21T13:53:04Z

Oh waw, that's actually a pretty unique concept. I wonder if you could turn this into a full game. With other phases where you manage your vehicule, maybe a system where you can choose what tetris parts will be available to do. For now, my favorite game of all the one I played this LD. Very good work!

Tensec World by Rolly 2022-10-21T14:14:41Z

Go work you lazy Tensies! It's actually a strategy /management game in disguise... Good work!

Night At The Orphanarium by michaelaranda 2022-10-21T14:00:01Z

I really liked the 3d models, I would have like to have a kind of claymation type animation to complete the illusion. Good work!

Getting Farted On by kuviman 2022-10-21T15:04:02Z

This character is really hard to control! I guess that's the point of the game but it can get a bit frustrating. Good work overall.

Puzzle Frency by mCayn 2022-10-21T18:20:21Z

Oh my god, this is impossible for me. But nice game, I like the idea of making the puzzle game into some fast paced action game! Good work!

Slow Mo Samurai by Rawb 2022-10-16T15:32:25Z

Made me feel badass with just a few clicks. Well done!

Poda Wants a Statue by Doot 2022-10-21T13:31:21Z

Not cool, panda god! Leave my bunnies alone, they are working for you!

Thwack by Jon Topielski 2022-10-21T13:48:03Z

It does indeed contain silly legs ^^. I didn't realized the game was speeding up because I kept failing at hitting the ball. Good work overall!

Tick Hero by WouterK12 2022-10-21T17:33:17Z

This is pretty nice! Slay The Spire but with a 3d interface. I think the game could be very cool if you keep updating it! Good work!

3 Hard Knocks by OfTheBrand 2022-10-21T17:50:18Z

I think there is something that can be interesting but you need things to do between waiting for shadows to show.

Turnip Terrace by Jonah_SRG 2022-10-21T18:02:25Z

That's a nice entry! Maybe having to complete different subquest (grab X eggplant, scare X animals) and random events (heavy wind, you have to fix your plants) could keep the game interesting on the long run. Good work!

10-Second Magic Artist by vivyhasadream 2022-10-21T14:57:59Z

I liked the idea, however it seems like my inputs didn't have any influences on the final result.

Lex Temporis by ImmanentDeath 2022-10-21T16:23:34Z

Got a bit of a Gauntlet mood from this game. Not sure how the theme is incorporated in it, but good work overall!

Stormlight Manor by RogueBrain 2022-10-21T18:06:23Z

The music works! It makes the game really tense. But in reality, the ghosts aren't that threatning. Good work and cool mood!

Time: Cardmancer by AkaCMD 2022-10-21T16:17:01Z

Interesting and quite unique mechanic! It's a bit weird to have to carefully think about your next move while acting fast, but it works. Good work!

Speedrun for light by _mK_ 2022-10-21T14:31:13Z

Simple but effective platformer. I spent some time looking for a hidden passage .. then I realized i can wall jump ^^' Good work!

Dragon Slayer Ultra by retrosaurdev 2022-10-16T15:06:52Z

I liked the idea, Made me think about the game Minit. Good work!

Termination Imminent by Kizilejderha 2022-10-21T14:23:46Z

Adventure, stealth, shooting, mysteries ... I wasn't expecting all of that! Solid entry, good work!

LD52 — Harvest

The Search for The Golden Crown Plant by DuzzOnDrums 2023-01-14T10:35:23Z

Very nice little game, I liked the home made aspect of th art and audio. Congratulations to the young artist and game designer! And to the dad who put all of this together!

Grow Golf by torcado 2023-01-20T08:03:55Z

Hey, that's actually pretty clever and original! Fun game with great execution, simple game but to the point. The only thing that can be added to improve the experience imho is an in game tutorial and maybe some background music. Overall, very cool game!

Harvest : Mars by angry-cyboot 2023-01-21T19:18:33Z

Hey, the idea seems interesting but I have to say I didn't really understood what I was supposed to do. A tutorial would really help getting player to enjoy the game :) Good job for finish it tho, it seems like there is a lot of mechanics going on !

The Orchid's Edge by Cornflowerblue 2023-01-17T14:34:55Z

Finally, Mario meets Dark Souls! Very well made game, with great graphics, music and game feel. Not much else to say except the fact that I think this entry will have a very good everall rating. Good work!

Tony Crow's Pro Scyther by auxC 2023-01-21T19:54:47Z

Yes, great! That's actually a great mash up of genre. I'm not a big fan of games where you have to skate BUT I'm a big fan of games where you have to slice people into pieces :) The way I was boucing when I ran into obstacles might be a bit too much, but hey, as I said I'm not a conoisseur of this type of games so ... Great entry, bonus point for the funny comments of the reaper (even if he doesn't like board games).

Monkey Oolong Harvest Bop by PeachTreeOath 2023-01-21T19:47:40Z

I managed to get 26 leaves! I love how you choose a very simple idea but executed it very well. That's a great scope for a game jam, and you nailed it. Good job, and a bonus point for the monkey sfxs ^^

Harvest Tataki - Whac-a-carrot by caranha 2023-01-21T20:22:58Z

Ho my god, it is fast paced! I had fun slapping those carrots but at a certain point it was too quick for me. Enjoyed the experience anyway! A great pico 8 entry with a good ost. Nice work!

Harvest Season by DrunkardWolf 2023-01-17T14:08:30Z

Great! We had more or less the same idea, but the execution is very different from ours! It wasn't very clear to me if the gun was hurting the harvester or not, so after a while I stopped shooting it and just ran for the exit. Good entry, bonus point for the mood!

Deck of plants by FancyReckless 2023-01-21T20:16:32Z

Finally a famr simulator mixed with a deck builder! I spent way more time than I should have playing this game... The game loop is satisfying and the game is clean and enjoyable. Great game, good job!

Fruit Pick Tricks by Toomblercazz 2023-01-14T10:51:11Z

It's actually a pretty clean puzzle game. I especially enjoyed the mood of the game, with its simplistic graphics and experimental music. When I looked at the capsule image I thought it would be something I would play for only a few seconds, it wasn't the case. Very well done! (As I'm writing this, I left the music to play in the background, it is relaxing)

Corpse Circle by Jonathan Lorenz 2023-01-21T19:55:54Z

@burnsdesigns You're right, I'm gonna do that now. Thanks !

Corpse Circle by Jonathan Lorenz 2023-01-22T22:03:23Z

@frozenfire92 I will!

The Anti-Harvest Brigade by Rolly 2023-01-10T16:42:14Z

Ho no, I've been harvested! I've tried sevral times but I never reached the end of the game. I have to say, a roguelite deckbuilder with a team of vegetables is a pretty ambitious project for a 48h jam! I would have liked the same game but with bigger sprites. Good work!

You're under harvest by Mastoast 2023-01-17T14:39:15Z

I enjoyed the game! A well made rythm game with nice pico 8 graphics and a great chiptune soundtrack. The only thing I would change is the graphics of the thigns you have to harvest. Of course I knew how to harvest apples, but for the two others I wasn't sure wich one was left and wich one was right, so I kept mistaking one for the other. Great entry overall!

Barvest: The Iconic Bug Harvest of 2005 by picross 2023-01-21T19:30:19Z

You managed to make the simplest action (moving through the world) enjoyable because of the cute spider animation and the nice hook mechanic. This is a great example of a cool game jam game. Simple but polished in every aspects. Great job!

Farmula Grain Prix by Chase of Bass 2023-01-21T19:38:03Z

Hahaha, that's actually really clever, I love games mixing elements from different genres. Usually I try most of the ld games for a minute or two except when I'm hooked, and it was the case here! The only thing a bit confusing is that the watering car wasn't giving me any feedback that I used it right. Other than that , a very cool entry. Good job!

Wheat harvest paradox by KenForest 2023-01-17T14:29:55Z

That's such a weird concept. You manage to make the act of just drinving in a field interesting because of everything else in the game loop. I actually enjoyed the ride and always wanted to improve my harvester. Good entry with a very weird but well done mood.

Fleshy Friend by Fluri 2023-01-21T20:30:12Z

I had a great time designing my fried : Zgrlurks. That's a funny little experiment. Next step is to be able to animate the character we created :) Cool little game, I especially enjoyed the weird music!

Human Harvest by Gregormack 2023-01-14T11:05:29Z

It was a fun experience, harvesting those humans. The challenge wasn't really hard, but it was relaxing to just wondering around and collecting earthlings. Don't have much more to say, but the game is a success imho. Good job!

LD53 — Delivery

Parcel Blaster 2099 by graebor 2023-05-03T09:01:36Z

The soudtrack is awesome! I liked the overall energy of the game. The game could be expanded with special events like moving mailbox, special mailboxes or packages worth more points, bonuses like slow-mo or packages with a seeker head. What if this was a roguelite, with a full game loop, bosses, different pathes between levels etc ... Great submission!

Deliver From the Dead by Mr_Field 2023-05-02T12:48:46Z

I enjoy the time spent, but I can't do anything without being brutally murdered. I will try this one again later because right now I have no clue about what I am supposed to do once I have grabbed the cure. Nice mood!

IceCream Van by notnasiul 2023-05-03T09:34:34Z

Wow, I'm being bullied because I missed some kid's order. So I'm trying to get away and .. ho no! I ran over a child! My god it's a massacre on the beach! Nice pico8 entry! A simple but enjoyabl game. Would be fun to have even more complex ice cream to craft within a time limit! Good job overall!

Hexy by rasblo 2023-05-12T14:50:21Z

Had to try again a few times before getting it. Nice little game, not sure about the relation to the theme but hey, I enjoyed my time playing the game. If I would change something, it would be to have less grey graphics and some scenery elments in the background. Good work overall!

Ultimate Pigeon Post by Yorsh 2023-05-12T14:53:25Z

Nice beat em up plateformer! I've never played as a fighting pigeon before :) Great graphics and good entry overall. Well done!

Your Item Has Been Delivered by Jonathan Lorenz 2023-05-03T09:20:29Z

@nail what do you mean by "instructive elements"?

Special Delivery by Ismael Rodriguez 2023-05-03T09:19:33Z

Very clever! I'm not a big fan of puzzle games but I felt this one is just the right balance for me, not too easy or too difficult, and with a bit of a dexterity challenge.The graphics and audio are simple but nice. I loved the little flying letter which gives player a reason to retry.Very good submission!

The Pigeon Post Principle by cassowary 2023-05-03T12:48:47Z

Cute and smart little game. I saw you already have a lot of interesting comments, so I'll keep it short : great entry that can be improved a little bit by having the "click to continue" replaced by "press any key to continue" ... so we don't have to switch between keyboard and mouse. Good job!

Wheely Wheely Good Deliveries by Rolly 2023-05-02T12:38:25Z

A bit of qwop feelings, but on a bike!

I liked the weird controls, the animations and the cleaness of the project. I wish there were a little arrow pointing to the next direction because I spent a lot of time wandering in the city, trying to find my next target. I would love to see something like this, but more speed focused! Like an infinite runner where you have to go as fast as possible while taking and giving deliveries on the run!

Anyway, good work!

Meat Missile Madness by Oliver Pope 2023-05-12T13:56:25Z

Hahaha, that's one of the most original submission I saw. You did respected the theme, but in your own way! The controls were a bit difficult, but I guess it's on purpose. Good job!

Birdmail by publicidadeba 2023-05-12T14:07:42Z

Very simple but effective tower defense where you must shoot pigeons! I always fail at around 1350 packages. Is it possible to complete the first level? Seems to me that at the end there are always 2 or 3 birds still alive. Good work!

TukTuk Delivery by MrBamboo 2023-05-12T13:43:17Z

Got stuck on a fence :( had to restart. The physics of the tuktuk are funny and hard to master. I would have liked a little background music. Good job!

K-SANDWICH by mmatt_ugh 2023-05-03T09:09:28Z

The perfect game jam submission! Some simple mechanics declined in differents challenges. I'm not saying this often but for once I would have whished for more levels!The game could be expanded with even more mechanics or ennemies like hold X to prepare a super punch to kill super ennemies that are resistant to simple punches. Great submission!

Man with a Van by kankje 2023-05-12T13:52:57Z

Very satisfying incremental game. At first I was a bit bored, but it quickly escalated to fast paced gameplay and having to take interesting decisions. Well done!

Mystic Logistic by Ben Toosey 2023-05-13T11:08:12Z

A clever little puzzle plateformer. In enjoyed the simple but effective mood brought by the graphics and audio. Good job!

Debbie's Diner Derby by Oroshibu 2023-05-03T13:48:23Z

Simple but effective concept! I love the simplicity of the gameplay and the graphics and audio are very unique. Good job!

Lost & Found by droo shayne 2023-05-12T14:14:12Z

Great little run and deliver game, with some roguelite elements. Didn't really get what the bonfire was about, and didn't had the time to experiment because I was chased by a thousand angry ghosts. The highlight of the game is the graphics. Good job!

Cracken Cargo by cfinger 2023-05-12T13:38:22Z

Hahaha! I Loved the giant octopus! Great graphics, great music, simple gameplay. Overall a cool experience, good job!

CURSED DE-LIVERY 💀 by Usenrame 2023-05-13T11:02:45Z

I had this weird bug were the look of the character was always going down, like if its head was too heavy. Made it very hard to play. Looking at the other comments its seems like I'm the only one getting this :( SO yeah, a bit hard to judge with this annoying bug, but I enjoyed the mood and the humour of the game.

Planetary Pizza by mrks 2023-05-19T13:13:05Z

Wow! Way too quick movement reaction! My ship was flying through space and spinning at light speed. Didn't managed to do anything, but I enjoyed the home made graphics. Imho the experience could be improving by just tuning down the rotation and movement speed.

Entomoria by Frib 2023-05-12T14:33:29Z

Interesting idea and execution. I have to say I'm not a big fan of the unconsistant art style. Some AI stuff + simple 3d models + hand drawn 2d sprites + default Unity font. This it the part I would try to spend more time on for the next time. Good work overall!

Fragile: Handle With Care by jakubtomsu 2023-05-19T12:43:57Z

Nice little entry, I wish the movement speed of the player was a bit more quick. Also, the game could be improved with multiple delivery objectives (copper : 2 deliveries, siler : 4 deliveries, gold 6 deliveries) so we wouls have more incentives to replay. Good job!

Parcel Madness: The Last Delivery by Grocek 2023-05-12T14:43:56Z

Nice plateformer, hard challenges but good controls, so it's ok. Got stuck behind what seems like an breakable wall because my parcel disapeared through the ground. Like the oldschool mood of it! Good work!

The last way by Arficord 2023-05-03T12:43:59Z

Loved the mood and the world building. I was supposed to choose what to do with the souls but the only option I had was to throw it away. And then the option disapeared and I couldn't do anything exept fight the never ending flow of undead attacking my ship. Really awesome potential for the atmosphere, not so much with the gameplay (unless I missed something or there is a bug). Great and unique entry overall!

The last way by Arficord 2023-05-03T13:49:18Z

@arficord Thanks for the reply, I will give it another try!

LD54 — Limited Space

A Parking Story by Gao Ming 2023-10-17T13:49:04Z

Made me think about a mix between Untitled Goose Game and You Suck At Parking. A very clean submission, this is what a game jam game should be : simple but polished. Good job!

Limited Space by milano23 2023-10-19T18:01:47Z

Obviously hard to judge since the game isn't finished. I think you had a pretty good idea and I would love to have seen it. I overscoped too so I sympathize with you. Wishing you the best for your next jam!

Pool Frog by notnasiul 2023-10-17T14:04:12Z

Highscore : 1233, those god damn carps keep eating me and the fly wasn't really cooperative. Nice little game, great oldschool arcade mood. Good job!

Wall Wizard by Strega 2023-10-17T14:15:36Z

I didn't expected the roguelite elements! The game was fun, the only thing I would change is the environment that was a bit boring. Also, the slimes were a bit too easy to kill imho. Other than that, good job!

Shoot'n Trade by PatBGames 2023-10-19T19:43:40Z

Hey that's pretty cool! I actually tried to do something similar but didn't made it in time. I really enjoyed the game loop of having to kill enemy to get money and then upgrade your ship. The only issue with the design is that when your cannon is destroyed, you'll have to just avoid the waves without having the ability to make more money. Maybe you could add a shitty basic cannon that only activate if you lose your main weapon. So at least you have the opportunity to still make money and repair your ship. Nice game, good work!

Push Away by fraanns 2023-10-19T16:47:56Z

A simple but nice little puzzle game. It starts easy but it quickly gets harder. Imho there are things that can be improved like the graphics and the audio, but overall good work!

World Weaver by JUSTCAMH 2023-10-17T13:56:35Z

Ok, I'm not sure I understood everything, also I'm bad at puzzle games, but overall I enjoyed the experience. Nice little game that can be tricky for people like me who are not good with puzzles ^^' Good job!

Oh no my spacebar has been cursed by an evil wizard if I press it too much I ded by myrmyxo 2023-10-19T17:22:26Z

Took me a few try to understand, but now I get it. It's a mix between a platformer and a puzzle game. That's a very simple but effective idea, I like it. However, I got stuck pretty quickly ... not very good at puzzle game. But I enjoyed my time on the game! The mood could of course be improved with audio, but overall I would say it's a nice game! Good job!

Though I Walk by AdamCYounis 2023-10-17T14:26:44Z

Oh wow, that's really clever! It was making my brain melt but I really enjoyed the mechanic. Not sure how much you can do with it but I can easily see this expanded into a full release. Very good job!

Disc Space by CaptAndrey 2023-10-19T17:05:44Z

Oh ok, I finally understand how to play. Obviously you would want to take a bit more player by the hands, at least in the beginning, to show them how to make the game works. The UI can also be improved, like having the type of file you need to click on blinking. Interesting idea, but needs improvements imho. Good work overall!

Slime Jumper by strailks 2023-10-17T14:30:34Z

That's an interesting mechanic. A simple but efficient game. Not much to say but I didn't enjoyed the music, the bassline was a bit too much stressful imho. Doesn't represent the mood of the game very well. Good work overall!

Pot Friends by Seong 2023-10-19T20:01:08Z

I kind of like this kind of ectic gameplay when you have to quicly move things around while dealing with the chaos of having multiple ingredients falling in the wrong pots. However, I wasn't sure what was supposed to go where. Would be awesome to have a feedback about if an ingredient is in the right pot. Could be a visual effect on the ingredient, a simple counter that increase when an ingredient is at the right place, or even just the characters reacting to the food that are in their pots. A nice concept that could be improve with a bit of juice imho. Good job!

A Fishy Kinda Fear by cyphix 2023-10-19T19:34:58Z

I think the difficulty should be tuned down. It would be nice to have a first level pretty short and easy, just to get the player to get involved in the game. Another thing : I think the character is a bit too big for a platformer like that, I hit the ceilling at nearly every jump, which remove some of the pleasure of jumping. Overall a cool little game. Good job!

Ghost Gambit by Shaggy 2023-10-19T19:39:12Z

Good work on making a multiplayer game! Too bad I didn't had the chance to test it with other players. I really like the music which adds a lot to the mood of the game. Can't say much about my experience since it was only in solo, but the product seems nice. Good job!

Bastion's Bumfuzzled Bean-er-ry by RookRules 2023-10-19T16:55:58Z

It wasn't really clear to me what I was supposed to do, something the beans felt off the containers so I lost a live, and sometimes I did the same thing and it counted as a win. It might have something to do with the physic system. Other than that, I think you did a good job with the scope. Good job!

we been bussin by dvdstain 2023-10-19T19:55:25Z

? I tried a couple of time but didn't get it. I validate my ticket and then what? A tutorial would have been nice to help players. I mean, the game seems decent on a technical level but I really have no idea what I am supposed to do. So pretty hard to do a realistic rating... Nice work on the bus simulation anyway!

Event Horizon Evasion by bolobolik 2023-10-19T17:26:36Z

Nice little game for a first game jam! Sometimes the Predators appeared too quickly so I didn't really had time to react properly, because just getting under them would push me into them. Also, it was weird to bounce on planet because you're not really sure were the bounce collider is. But overall the game is pretty fun. Good job!

Box of Squingus by leckert 2023-10-19T17:31:58Z

I genuinely really liked this game! I think that you had a great idea and that you could definitively expand this into a more polished version if you have the time! Abviously with audio, but also with more details in the graphics, more juice, etc ... The idea is simple but the game can be hard. Again, very cool idea and nice implementation! Very good work!

It Gazes Back by Sylvic 2023-10-19T17:10:53Z

Not really my kind of game... I tried it out of curiosity but to be honest didn't played very long. So yeah, didn't have much to say about the game itself. But congratulations for making the game by yourself and completing this Ludum Dare, that's an awesome achievement. Keep up the good work!

Back to Space by Zazzar 2023-10-19T17:17:18Z

I didn't really understood how and when to use the spacebar. Sometimes it helps moving the little butterfly, but sometimes I don't even have to do that, the butterfly follow me to the door. It might seems strange, but for me the highlight of the game was the music. It might be a bit silly, but it was working and didn't annoyed me even if the loop is quite short.

Before The Trip by Nilan 2023-10-17T14:09:35Z

It's funny because it is supposed to be a relaxing game, but for me it is my nightmare. Having to fill everything in a suitcase, not knowing where you put those god damn glasses, removing everything from your suitcase and restarting again... That being said, the game is pretty well done. Only complaint I have is that the music loop was too short and it was like making fun of me for taking so long to pack my stuffs. Good work overall!

Super Amazing Lighthouse Repair Crew by jusentari 2023-10-17T14:38:35Z

That was a fun little game. A bit of tower defense, with a limited timer mechanic. I was a bit confused at first but after a few try a understood what I was supposed to do. The music was interesting but not sure it really fitted the fast paced gameplay of the game. I would have liked a better tutorial because I missed it at the first try. Good work overall!

TurtleTD by RubyDaPrincess 2023-10-19T20:06:36Z

First game jam? Well done! Congratulation for making it, that's an awesome achievement! Now some feedbacks : since the waves of sharks are pretty slow, I would add a button to increase the time rate. Also, having just one turtle for the beginning is a bit boring. The systems seems to be working, you have the foundation for something that can be nice, but it needs more work to get the player to have a nice experience from the begginning. Good work overall!

Limited Space:Animal by tengxi 2023-10-19T19:48:02Z

Ho no, it was too short! I actually wanted to see how the different animals were going to interact in the next levels but didn't had the time to since I reached the end. Well, I guess it's better to leave player with a taste of "not enough" rather than "too much". Anyway, I think you could make a post jam version with more levels and still keep the levels refreshing. Good job!

MY LIL WIZARD by doinksoft 2023-10-17T14:22:10Z

A mix between Vampire Survivor and PUBG, interesting. Not a fan of those games but I can see that there is love and care putted into this project. I didn't play for very long but from what I saw maybe the game was lacking challenge? The ennemies were all not very dangerous, so I just killed them with my different weapons and used bombs when they were too many. Nice game, well polished. Good job!

LD55 — Summoning

Fire Quota by quadtree 2024-05-01T14:12:34Z

A nice little game. It was funny to set everything on fire. Took me some time to understand that I could move the avatar with the mouse (I tried using wasd). And the upgrade system was fun. I would have liked more challenges than the little guys with their crossbow. Good job overall!

The King's Summoning by strong99 2024-05-01T13:43:51Z

This is quite an ambitious idea, I like it. However, as a player I felt like I didn't had much to do. Once I trainde my character and recruited some backup, I was just watching the fight happens. So cool mechanics, but I would have liked more thing to do. Good job overall!

Think Or Be Thought by AlexHoratio 2024-05-01T14:07:54Z

I have absolutely no idea what I'm supposed to do. Can't say much about the game, except I would have like a detailed tutorial in game about what was expected of me as a player. Good job for finishing it in time anyway!

BLOOD WRITES by jelch 2024-05-01T13:31:32Z

It was a bit hard to evaluate what went wrong when I failed. What part of the drawing "broke" it. Sometimes I felt like my drwaing was ok, but I lost, and then I do the same drawing but more poorly imho, and I win. Can be a bit frustrating. I like the mood and appreciate the tech you used. Good job!

Skelly-Tons by Jajo 2024-05-01T14:24:41Z

I liked the little skeleton guys, they made me laugh :) I would have liked to have the player starts with auto fire, instead of having to destroy my mouse. Cool little game overall, good job!

Monster-Maker Pro: Home Edition by Tad 2024-05-02T12:25:47Z

Cool little game. The controles were a bit weird and I'm not a fan of the soundtrack choice, but other than that it was nice. Didn't really understood what to do, I followed the guy's advices but I only managed to summon a big crap. Good job overall!

The Saint Of The Great Sorrow by Jonathan Lorenz 2024-04-15T11:48:47Z

@volkolak Despair ...

The Saint Of The Great Sorrow by Jonathan Lorenz 2024-04-16T13:47:58Z

@outstar Thanks! Not gonna continue this one, it will stay a game jam project, but I will use and expand on the "quest" mechanics for some parts of my game Final Girl (wishlist it on steam :D). It is definitively more horror themed than this one ;)

HTON by deniskazantsev 2024-05-01T13:48:17Z

I liked the mood you got here. Imho it could have been improved with audio. A dark ambiant track or just weird noises in the background would be cool. Also, the Sfx for the voices of the people you sacrifice were a bit funny and ruined the dark mood. Would have been better with just a knife or guts sound. Cool littel game, I like the achievements that makes you want to play again. Good job!

Yokai Summoners by Japayne 2024-05-02T08:31:54Z

Tried it alone, just to see the mechanics. I like the simple idea and the graphics, would have liked some basic idle animations and some sfxs. I think the soundtrack was in a totally different mood which break the immersion. Imho would have been better with just some moody background music, or just the sound of wind or something that evokes ghost and / or japan. Good work overall!

Ancistroides Folus by soundgnome 2024-05-02T08:45:46Z

Such a weird idea! I liked it! Could be cool to have the mowing mechanic and the battle mechanic complimenting each other. For example, the player could gain special mowing power by defeating ennemies and the mowing part could give battle bonuses when you reached a certain mowing objective. Good job overall!

Legend of Lady by Spice Cabinet 2024-05-02T08:55:51Z

Cool graphics, simple nice mechanics. Only problem is : I didn't find out what to do with my crystals. I took them to the bottom of the screen and now I'm stuck. Also, the worms didn't seems to do any damages? SO maybe there's more explanations to do in the game itself, or there is some bug fixing to do. But overall it's a cool little game, good job!

Summon Sandbox by Srynetix 2024-05-02T09:13:05Z

I never managed to escape the first room :( I do understand that I need to match the shapes, but I can't make it work. Not sure what's the issue here ... too bad, the game looked cool.

Summon Sandbox by Srynetix 2024-05-03T08:16:57Z

@srynetix Thanks for answering. The issue is I don't know when a symbol is validated. When I left click it changes position on one of the three inner rings (but the tuto told me left click is validate), then it goes to the middle with a sfx that sounds like "cancel" to me. I see that you already have enough ratings, but I'm just telling you this as a feedback : it isn't clear how I validate a symbol. And I still can't open the door ^^'

Summon Sandbox by Srynetix 2024-05-03T12:00:42Z

@srynetix Ooooooh, I get it now! Yes it does work! Just thinking out loud, here are some things that could improve the feedback imho : - have a validation sound be more melodic, and that increase in pitch for each validation - have the code you enter be written somewhere while you're validating the symbols (bottom of the screen?) - have a little animation on the symbols you validate on the circle to confirm to the player you used it - have the different circle of the different levels either disapear or be in grey once they are "used"

Battle Builder by PerfectSquare 2024-05-01T13:54:12Z

A fun little game, with simple but efficient mechanics. I liked seeing my little dude evolve. I would hve like a lock on mechanic to always face the ennemy you want. Also liked that it was pretty short so I could see the entire game without spending too much time. Good job!

Unholy Cow by oligue 2024-05-01T14:38:09Z

I laughed at the musical choice, but it did work with the game! It gave the cow a little gangsta vibe! Would be cool to have more things to do, like move your cow and make it fetch something, so you'll have more things to keep an eye on. Cool little game overall, good job!

In The Shadows by Beep Boop 2024-05-01T13:34:09Z

Webgl build stops loading at the end of the loading bar (Firefox).

Sumi & Portia: Rescue Service '55 by jpbash 2024-05-01T13:27:15Z

You have some nice mechanics here, but I didn't understand the right strategy to teleport the guys, everyone was dying ... I DO appreciate the effort you took to make a tutorial and the simple but efficient graphics. Good job!

Hell's Company by Himiko Morena 2024-05-02T12:19:37Z

Simple but nice concept. I had to restart a few times to understand what was actually happening. The game could have a little in game tutorial to help players determine what to do next. Good job overall!

SoundSummoner by goddzeproject 2024-05-01T14:18:12Z

Nice little piano mechanic. Would be cool to have like a melody to play in a certain time without making mistakes, so you could turn this into a game. You acan make a level system with increasingly complex melody and see how far you can go without making mistakes. Good job overall!

Geometry Summoner by benisu 2024-05-02T09:00:09Z

I didn't managed to do anything ^^' WOuld be cool to have an option to change visual for azerty users, because rn it is complicated for me ^^ I do liked the idea, a mix between a survivor like and a typing game. It is cool! Also really liked the simple but efficient graphics and the energetic music. Good job!

Molag Brawl by aznoqmous 2024-05-02T12:30:51Z

I actually really like the simple but efficient graphics and the overall mood. Also, the game is really easy to play and understand at first hand. +1 bonus point for the music. Great job!

Pass It On by TeaHands 2024-05-01T13:38:57Z

Would be cool to have a mini tutorial in game. I had no idea what I was doing. At a certain point I was summoned to the principal's office but the door was closed. The stealth mechanics seems to work so I hope you'll find a way to explain to the player what he must do in game. Good job overall!

Limbo Solutions inc. by out1oud 2024-05-01T13:21:50Z

A bit tricky to understand, I wasn't sure what the skull and the lamp were supposed to do, but I managed to play the game without them. Cool little game, I like the jazzy mood. Good job!

My bud by zhzhpupkin 2024-05-01T14:28:24Z

Unfortunately I can't read cyrillic alphabet, so I can't play. Would be cool to have the first the plyaer do is choose their language if there are muliple languages in the game.

Summoner's Cat Defense by KANAGG 2024-05-01T14:22:07Z

Would be nice to have a mini tutorial at the beginning of the game to explain the mechanics to the player, and also to give a bit of context about what I'm doing. My cats are mining clouds, wich I can use to summon more cats, but what's the end goal? Nice little game overall, good job!

Puppies, Please by CharmedSatyr 2024-05-02T08:49:57Z

Nice little game. I loved the idea but had a bit of a hard time with the UI. It could be more intuitive imho. Rn I can give a stamp on a dog for a potential dog owner but I can't move on to the next client. With a bit of work to make it more easy to use (and maybe some bug fixing), this could be a pretty chill and cool experience. Good job overall!

AkuMAZON by Doodledu 2024-05-01T13:59:29Z

Tried playing it on the webGL itchio version, but the characters were in chinese (I think) so I couldn't do anything ^^' Tried it on this page after that. Some of the texts were in english, and some in chinese. Better I guess, but still can't play it ^^'

Frogs of the Round Pebble by Rugg 2024-05-02T08:40:52Z

I liked the idea of playing as a frog. Imho there are some things that could improve the game : The controls that doesn't feel enough frog like. Instead of moving at a stedy speed, it should be more jerky. The jump animation should be cut in two so you play the landing part at the right moment. And finally it would be great to have a lock on mechanic to attack the butterfly, rn it's a bit difficult to aim. Nice little game overall, congrats on finishing the game!

DemonLogic by ypwub5 2024-05-01T14:34:13Z

Nice little programming game! It gets pretty complicated pretty quickly. I think you have a simple but solid mechanic here. Would be cool to spend more time on the graphical and audio assets to improve the game feel. Good job!

Mana Mayhem by Stormblessed 2024-05-02T08:26:26Z

A nice little survivor like game. Would be cool to consider adding controls with the arrows because the WASD was map for QWERTY keyboard. The soundtrack was pretty dark but the graphics were more funny, so it creates a weird mood. Good job overall!

The Acolyte's Errand by DubiousCubious 2024-05-01T14:43:03Z

I really enjoyed the graphics and the mood of the game. I think it deserve better controls. Rn the character's movement feel really stiff, and jumping does not work all the time. Also, woul be cool to have a reminder in game when your summon is ready. I discovered it by pressing "S" by accident. Cool game overall, good job!

Telefrag Trouble by Ned Murry 2024-05-02T09:03:05Z

A cool little game. Of course I would have liked to hear music and sfxs, to improve the mood. Not sure what the monsters were supposed to be but they made me think of Kaijus attacking a city. It's a simple game but it works, so good job!

LD41 — Combine 2 Incompatible Genres

Magneto De Liquidus by Ajayajayaj 2018-05-12T20:37:31Z

I have to say it is pretty original. With more mechanics and polish this could be an interesting complete game. Good work!

Dark Soil by Pietro Ferrantelli 2018-04-28T16:09:23Z

I'm amazed by the level of quality and polish. This could really be turned to a full game. Love the "build your own level and difficulty" factor. Congratulations!

Game Jam the Game by Jacksendary 2018-05-15T11:28:59Z

Nice. Made me think about Gamedev Tycoon (of course). For what I understood it is like a guessing game, which I'm not a big fan of. Good work anyway!

Self Golf by SecondDimension 2018-05-15T11:20:29Z

Very effective little game. Simple and funny. Would be cool to be able to cancel your shot once you have charged too much. Also maybe a hard mode where you can't walk and the only moving option is to shoot. Great game! (Ho I made it to the leaderboard!)

Golf N' Grenades by Imphenzia 2018-04-30T11:49:22Z

Awesome music. Loved the low poly art. Did you make those yourself? The game was hard to play. Maybe you should be able to aim (left , right) after you start charging your shots. There are definitively some gameplay aspects that can be improved but nice work overall. Cheers!

About Love by maskinmask 2018-04-28T12:38:44Z

Surprisingly good and addictive. We made it to the end so that's already a good pont for you. Also the game was very polished. Great work!

Zig-Pong by BathPirate 2018-05-08T11:50:59Z

So simple and effective! You have a good game on your hands. Graphics were on point and music was awesome! Good work!

Wreckless Rally by Flaterectomy 2018-04-28T12:13:23Z

Fun little game. Really liked the music. Good work!

Chesburgrellia by niborious 2018-04-25T09:06:45Z

Surprisingly addictive! Good job!

Magic The Shattering by diptoman 2018-04-30T13:10:56Z

Nice! Definitively got some Touhou vibes in here! Why can't I rate the mood of the game? Good work!

Chef, yes chef! by blacksheepza 2018-04-30T12:30:02Z

The game looks really cool but unfortunately is laggy on my shitty laptop. Can't rate but thumbs up for the effort ;)

CityDefense by JOrbits 2018-04-25T11:15:52Z

The idea and the execution are great! The concept is worth exploring. Really good job, would love to see this much more developed :)

The Heat Of Battle by hexagore 2018-04-28T14:46:40Z

Unfortunately we got stuck because we put the wrong people together. Too bad because we had a really gret time playing. Awesome humor and mood! Cheers!

Officer Pain - The Smash Cop by DaragonGames 2018-05-12T20:44:46Z

I feel like the player is missing some feedback about when he is charging hits. The game was ok but the characters felt a bit motionless. Good work overall!

DUNK EM UP! by lukbebalduke 2018-04-28T22:07:17Z

I was hyped by your posts during development and I am not disappointed. The game feel is really good. I found myself restarting multiple times. Very good work!

DUNK EM UP! by lukbebalduke 2018-04-30T12:25:47Z

I just came back to say that, looking back at my "LD41 played games" list, I barely remember most of them but I definitively remember your game, which is a great achievement imo. Cheers!

Risky Squad by mortus 2018-05-05T15:07:06Z

Good work! It deserve more ratings. Promote your game!

Court Invaders by Robber 2018-04-25T09:47:30Z

Difficult but an interesting mix of genres. I liked the pixelated 3d :)

Black Horizon by Kristian David 2018-04-25T14:49:22Z

Unfortunately, the game didn't work for me and my shitty laptop. In high quality or normal the car would not accelerate and in low quality the FOV is too short to see. Would have to try it later on another computer.

Evil Bunny by PonchoGuy 2018-05-15T11:34:59Z

I have to say it is pretty intimidating with all those menus. A good improvement imo would be to have a little tutorial explaining to the player what are the objectives of the game and how to reach them. Like something that take them through the basic game loop once and then let them free.

Final Click ZX by candlesan 2018-04-30T12:59:55Z

Nice combination that worked very well. Maybe was it lacking some challenge? If I can't lose, is it really a game? Other than that, good work!

Crazy Cube by YANIV 2018-04-28T13:33:26Z

Really interesting. The genres combined imo are more puzzle and shooter. It gave me a rubik's cube vibe. I think you have a pretty interesting idea on your hands! Good work even if it was a little rough around the edges.

Vector Rabbits Slayer by thiagowaw 2018-04-25T10:01:39Z

Nice game. The graphics are really the thing that make it shine. However the lack of sounds is detrimental to the mood. Also, the jump was a bit short imo. Good work!

Praxre by cenullum 2018-04-28T12:22:06Z

The game was interesting but I think the genres are more stacked up than mixed together. Good work.

Wandering Rogue by ArBe 2018-05-04T11:22:56Z

I had fun playing this game. Maybe could you had the possibility to do a shock wave by landing? It could create more gameplay opportunities. Anyway, the game feel was satisfying so with more content and a long term goal for the player, this game has potential. Good work!

Super Word Knight: Searching for Courage by Stamperino 2018-05-04T14:39:27Z

A very simple concept but it works. Maybe you can extend the content of the games by also adding shapes or colours instead of words. Or you could have coloured words and sometimes you have to match the word, other times you have to match the colours. Good work!

Think Before Escape by acoto87 2018-04-28T13:08:42Z

Interesting concept. The genres works together. It was also puzzle / plateformer. What could be improved for us is a way to interact with the time phase. Shorten it with a skill or a collectible. Good work, could be turned into a full game imo.

A Fistful of Shrooms by gdort 2018-04-25T09:54:09Z

Ho no! I can't play it on my shitty laptop (too much input delay). Would have to try it on a friend's computer.

A Fistful of Shrooms by gdort 2018-04-28T15:49:41Z

Finally been able to play the game! It was fun but lacks a bit of content imo. Also, had to read your description to know what mix of genres it was. I liked how you interpreted the rules. Good work but too short!

Stealth Trucking by Crabman 2018-04-28T14:22:02Z

The two genres were working pretty well together. Good idea to use the light from the trucks as a cone of vision. The way the truck was moving gave the game a "heavy" gamefeel wich is fitting the trucks theme but a bit detrimental to the fun imho. Good work overall!

Patrick's Shoot Towers Pew Pew! by PatrickRMC 2018-04-25T12:41:07Z

Nice! However I don't really see the racing part except the fact that we control a vehicle. The music is mesmerizing! Good work!

Daxua by mainghia95 2018-04-30T12:20:02Z

Super cool mood! The graphics are very good and the music is on point. The gameplay is good but not at the same level as the art. The game is short but I had a great time anyway! Didn't really get what the genres are ... beat em up and? Good work.

Soul Sword by Raiyumi 2018-04-25T09:31:38Z

I liked it but it didn't hook me that much. Good graphics and music tho.

Danmakoïd - Bullet hell metroidvania by Talops 2018-04-28T13:20:36Z

You respected the main elements of the genres you are mixing. This was working very well and made us retry several times the game. Would love to see this turned into a full game. Good work!

Peculiar Adventures of Dorothy Hops by detectiveLosos 2018-04-28T15:00:53Z

You really respected the theme and managed to do something with those two incompatible genres. The game was fun. The graphics were really good, nice reflection effect. Good work!

Guitar Fighter by johnnyjw 2018-04-25T09:41:16Z

Interesting idea! But I find it really hard to focus on both at the same time. Also, maybe the keys to trigger should be in line instead of switching from A and D (by the way, I'm on azerty) to mouses button. It could be more intuitive imho. Good work anyway!

Shuffle Climber by miroky 2018-04-28T13:44:48Z

Fun little game. Maybe it lacks a bonus to reroll all your hand? Good work overall!

INSiTU by tulipekoni 2018-05-04T15:01:32Z

After exiting the first room I just fall into the black space outside of the boundaries of the game. The game is pretty polished and the puzzle are hard. Made me think about Fez. I liked the overall mood of the game. Good work_

Haiti Kitty by Beebo Studios 2018-04-28T14:11:04Z

Nice little graphical adventure. The graphics were the things that made it shine. Good work.

Dancemazing by MariosManiatis 2018-04-28T12:51:41Z

Interesting. I assumed that "dance game" meant "rythm game" but that was not really the case. Good work.

Dancemazing by MariosManiatis 2018-04-28T12:51:41Z

Good work.

Puzzle Tower by NilC 2018-05-05T15:47:32Z

Interesting concept!Could be expanded! A bit short but nice work!

Ultimate Hero Simulator by antvelm 2018-04-30T12:10:41Z

Interesting. However for me it was more an action platformer with some QTE. I didn't quite get everything that was happening. Maybe a little tutorial could help. The graphics and the music were good. Good work!

Skate'n'Snipe by Jonathan Lorenz 2018-04-24T00:19:22Z

Hey! Thanks for the advice! Glad you had a laugh :) Cheers!

Skate'n'Snipe by Jonathan Lorenz 2018-04-24T13:22:07Z

Yes @RadioactiveRambo, it was part of the plan but unfortunately I ran out of time. Thank you for checking out the game! Cheers

Skate'n'Snipe by Jonathan Lorenz 2018-04-24T22:46:16Z

It is indeed rough around the edges @David Boeger ! I spent the first 2 days making a point and click / plateformer but it just wasn't funny. So I changed everything on the last day. Thank you for playing!

Skate'n'Snipe by Jonathan Lorenz 2018-04-26T12:40:43Z

@Langotriel @MrBreadMan Thank you for taking the time to play and comment! Cheers

Skate'n'Snipe by Jonathan Lorenz 2018-04-28T20:24:04Z

Thank you for your feedback guys! I've fixed some bugs found by your playtesting skills. Also, it is interesting to have suggestions to improve the game. You are absolutely right about the UI and the movement @croewens @Ted-Carter @Flaterectomy !

Skate'n'Snipe by Jonathan Lorenz 2018-05-04T11:46:11Z

Thank you guys for taking the time to play and comment :) So far I had received some pretty interesting feedbacks and suggestions. Here's what I have gathered (short version):

-remove UI -improve jumping -add gameplay mechanics to jumping and shooting -add difficulty

I took time to think about @croewens suggestion about being able to zoom anywhere but I like the fact that the targets are on screen for a short time.

Cheers!

Skate'n'Snipe by Jonathan Lorenz 2018-05-06T19:52:28Z

@joemid Thank you mister President!

Skate'n'Snipe by Jonathan Lorenz 2018-05-14T16:01:41Z

Thanks to you guys, the game reached 50 ratings! :)

Skate'n'Snipe by Jonathan Lorenz 2018-05-15T16:18:01Z

@MichiPantera Your words touched y heart :)

Dungeon Racers by ZargarTheBarbar 2018-05-05T15:14:05Z

Nice idea. The gameplay and the handling of the car is the thing to upgrade for me. Also it was hard to see what's in the way. I've been hitting lots of walls. Good work!

Cyclevania by Allen Oliver 2018-04-30T11:56:18Z

Fun concept! However I found it a bit too fast for me. Maybe having 2 different speed could help. The sfx were good but I think the music doesn't really fit the game. Either go full castlevania or extreme sport punchy music. Good work!

Black-Crops: Tactical Farming by JaredEvans_Neumont 2018-05-12T21:33:04Z

Surprisingly addictive! Loved the metal gear-like music and sound effects. I spent a bit of time on this one which is a good sign. Good work!

Pinball Golf by chronofeed 2018-05-05T16:00:03Z

Nice. Needs some more work on the physics. Good work.

Soccer Fight by mic_matrix91 2018-04-28T14:03:39Z

Good point for the humor!

Total Cornage by Lightyn 2018-05-12T21:33:57Z

Unfortunately my shitty laptop can't run this game properly, so I can't rate it. Too bad the game don't have a low settings option.

Type n' Jump by Richard N Silva 2018-04-28T13:56:59Z

I was pretty sceptic with the concept from the get go but you manage to surprise me. Could be a bit tiring on the long term tho. Good work.

Intergalactic Goblin Ramming Speed! by IndieLucky 2018-05-03T11:58:45Z

The game looks really cool but unfortunately is too much for my pc to handle. Can't rate but really like the graphics and the concept.

Intergalactic Goblin Ramming Speed! by IndieLucky 2018-05-04T07:50:29Z

@IndieLucky It indeed made a big difference! The game is funny and take the fact that we as players like to destroy everything that we can as a core concept. Simple but efficient. Good work!

SURVABY by 0nironauta 2018-05-15T15:18:57Z

It works well! The tension of the zombies + the tension of the babies makes a great but stressing game. Also you got an extra star for humour because of the baby sounds made by adults :)

SCARE-CADE by lum 2018-04-28T22:12:08Z

Nice game, I had fun. Would have loved to be able to "charge" an attack and then release it when the enemy is close. Good work!

Helsing by davidsheadgames 2018-04-30T12:49:00Z

Interesting! The concept is worth exploring. I had a great time and the last level was very satisfying! On the down side, having to hit multiple times keys to move was a bit unpleasant.Very good work overall!

Sword step by DarthWaxus 2018-05-05T14:56:55Z

Very efficient. Sometimes I'm not sure which one I was. Would love to see this more content (weapons with different ranges). Love the minimalist aspect. Would be nice to have a little more audio (a short melody when you killed everyone in a wave. Good work!

Tower Racer by Michael Heasell 2018-05-12T21:04:06Z

Would be nice to be able to shoot with the mouse! Also, for this type of game, I prefer if the car/tower is facing up when no keys are pushed. Easier to control imo. Good work!

One Man Crew by Lucas Hoffmann 2018-05-12T20:30:48Z

High score : 213. It was funny and the music was empowering. A bit repetitive but good work!
