LD41 — Combine 2 Incompatible Genres

Player Alone BattleGrounds (Early Access) by ghust1995 2018-04-24T05:03:37Z

Really funny idea and well executed. A true single-player battle royal experience XD. I really like the music coming out of the boombox in the little hut on the beach.

This is very cool, I haven't seen a game like this before so thumbs up for innovation. Only major critique would be that sometimes the AI would move too far off the screen so sometimes I couldn't hit em. Overall its a neat game!

EXTREME EXTERMINATION DEFENSE by chaoclypse 2018-04-24T05:59:07Z

I really liked this game! I played through all 5 waves and I wish there were more! The low poly graphics are cool, the theme of the game is really unique and it fits the game jam perfectly. Really great job. If there would be 1 recommendation I would make it would be to buff the fire turrets. They feel pretty underwhelming compared to the freeze turrets. I had 1 jump pad, 1 speed boost pad, and then all freeze turrets and I barely took any damage to the base.

Wreckless Rally by Flaterectomy 2018-04-24T04:36:09Z

Really amazing game. Graphics are great, music is great, concept is great and executed very well. I had a blast playing!

Poker-Man : Arcade + Poker by lavwa 2018-04-24T05:48:02Z

Really good game! Super innovative and fit the theme well. Would love to see this turn into a full game.

Ace Golf: Blade Brawlers by elHombreBanana 2018-04-24T05:42:07Z

Awesome game and very well made! If you added multiplayer / lan I could see this game becoming really popular!

BASEBALL in HELL by ragtagradical 2018-04-24T07:04:48Z

Wow, really great game. I was not expecting this at all when opening it. It fits the theme great and is really unique. Well done!

HomicIDLE by Luke Brown 2018-04-24T06:18:00Z

@MoistGames Thanks for the kind words, we love that you appreciate the characters and the theme!

@Dovena Thanks!

@GeroX Thanks, we had a hard time figuring out how to balance the game. In some versions the enemies were way too easy and in others the enemies were way too hard. We tried to find a good balance by scaling up the enemy level and count with how many friends you've made since the more friends you have the more love you generate and therefore the more upgrades you could buy. I think it starts out good but towards the end it can get really hard. There is an ending scene if you reach 300 friends and if we want anyone to see it we'll need to tone down the difficulty towards the higher friend counts.

@Diego Escalante Thanks, its nice to know that the pictures did a good job of setting up the story and we are glad to here that you like the main character and his skele-ton of puns!

HomicIDLE by Luke Brown 2018-04-24T08:22:30Z

@Articulated9 Thanks for the kind words and puns! We did run into this bug when testing after submitting which made the game extremely difficult since the sword hitbox does not extend further than the skeleton hitbox. In order to get around this I found that it works really well if you jump and stand still over the enemy, the sword hit box will then hit them first, allowing you to get to the next upgrade. I have already looked into this bug and I believe it will be a simple fix and we should have an update out by tomorrow!

HomicIDLE by Luke Brown 2018-04-24T23:19:18Z

@Petro Shoferystov We fixed the bug this morning and the first sword upgrade should now be working as intended. Thanks for the kind words on the voice acting, we thought they were pretty good too XD

@GiovanniBarrottu Yep, that bug should now be fixed, thanks for liking our story and sound effects, we hope to polish the game more and introduce some concepts that we were not able to in the short amount of time.

@Waraiko The bug should be fixed now! Thanks for liking our game!

@SMILEY_4_ Thanks!

@Marcial Thanks! I'll be sure to look at yours!

@Re-Markable Thanks for liking our game! We are pretty proud of the sound effects and we couldn't stop laughing while making them XD

Chungholio Tower by SlimothyJ 2018-04-24T05:28:45Z

Awesome game. Had fun playing it. The controls are really precise in the air which allows for some awesome jumping. Reminded me a lot of b-hopping in counter strike. Also the little robots I thought were pretty funny. Got to the final boss only to get there with 10 hp and die instantly lol. Really fun game!

Dyeswap by morphine 2018-04-24T08:03:29Z

Really cool game. I like the theme and lighting, you did a really good job of setting the mood of the game while not taking away from the game.

Midnight pulse by Szekeres Szabolcs 2018-04-24T04:03:14Z

Really fun game, I like what you did with it. The visuals are really good. The game is hard starting out but you get the hang of it after a little while. Overall I really like it, reminds me a lot of impossible game!

Super Hyperspace Rythm Plus Ultra by Kichex 2018-04-24T07:11:14Z

Really fun! At first I was confused as to what the other genre was other than bullet hell but then the music slowed down after all the really fast stuff and all the guys slowed down and it became very apparent that it's bullet hell + rythem! Really great job with this game, I had fun playing it :D

Basket BOOM by hifire 2018-04-24T07:54:35Z

Although the game is not complete, I did play the level a few times over to try to speedrun the game! I was able to get pretty fast lol. The physics for the ball are pretty good and for being a little demo its pretty fun.

Graveyard dates by Adrien Dittrick 2018-04-24T04:46:11Z

Cool game, I like the concept. I liked it more than I expected I would!

Deltablast by TheJayDuck 2018-04-24T07:43:12Z

I really like the game, I had fun trying to get the highscore. I like that the worlds are procedural so you don't keep playing the same map over and over. Although this doesn't fit the theme super well since endless runner / FPS I think has been done before, I really like how you did it in your game. I could actually see myself playing this in my free time, I hope you keep improving it!

Tennis Hero by JeffChen 2018-04-24T05:33:34Z

Cool game, I like the graphics a lot. The gameplay is ok but I think it would be a lot better if you controlled the little guy with WASD or maybe be able to adjust the sensitivity.

Doodle & Destroy by spierek 2018-04-24T04:51:54Z

I was really looking forward to trying this out but I can't seem to get the game to work for me. I tried both downloading the game and playing it on the web. I don't know if this is only happening for me but I couldn't get it to work :(

Shooter Casino by Onnion 2018-04-24T06:53:53Z

I like the concept and it was well done! I didn't fully understand how the roulette wheel worked but the other mini games were very straight forward. I was able to get to the final boss but died. I like the game but I do want to note that for some reason when I opened the game my pc detected it as a VR game? I had to unplug my headset from my pc in order to play.

Beat Boxer by jaredmercer 2018-04-24T05:11:33Z

Cool game! I love guitar hero and ddr so this game caught my eye. Fun to play and challenging, I couldn't beat the final round but I felt it was a fair fight. I was hoping that there would be punching animations for when you hit / get hit but it is still very cool and I really like it!

Modern Fairway 4: Spec-Ops in the Rough by Lost Dutchman Software 2018-04-24T06:32:34Z

Although the game is short and the assault rifle is impossible to use I couldn't help but laugh at how outrageous this game is. The concept is great for this theme and it was pretty fun.

Mud and Pixels by Hare Software 2018-04-24T07:25:54Z

I had an idea for a game just like this and you executed it really well. I like the theme, art, and gameplay. My only gripe is that I can't put different units in different trenches in a single planning turn. I think this would help make this game more strategic and fun. Overall its really great and I had fun playing it!

Would you marry me ? by Toryf 2018-04-24T06:38:08Z

I initially clicked on this because of the thumbnail and I was not disappointed! I really like the character, the music is relaxing, and although the main gameplay is essentially rock-paper-scissors I like the combination of it with a dating sim. Overall I like it!

Wordslide by TravisChen 2018-04-24T04:30:40Z

Cool idea, reminded me of the tony hawk pro skater series where you had to collect "S K A T E" or "C O M B O". Also I really like the art style, pretty unique. Had fun playing this game, pretty awesome.
