LD50 — Delay the inevitable

Legacy Survivors by quill18 2022-04-04T22:13:46Z

Great game! I couldn't stop playing it. It seems fairly bug free

The boomerang is OP!

Why Bother by Vilmantas 2022-04-05T21:32:52Z

This definitely has potential for future development. I appreciate the graphics and the fog sets a good mood

Snowmageddon by PurpledArtFrog 2022-04-05T21:50:41Z

I think I ran into a bug on the second playthrough. It said I saved all the snowmen about 5 seconds in, but I hadn't save any yet? Either way, it was fun!

You are Quitting by BrettSchiff 2022-04-05T20:44:21Z

Definitely gets points for humor. After playing so many AAA games that entice you to keep going, it's refreshing to find a game that encourages the opposite :P

Meteor Power by UkuleleFury 2022-04-06T01:00:17Z

I'm impressed with the amount of options you have in the settings. This is a very well done game with a lot of strategy involved. The only bug I ran into was some music skipping when loading up the level.

Deny the Illegible by Team Watt 2022-04-05T22:16:53Z

I like the background music. I feel like the timer is a bit too generous.

Last Look Up by ClaytonRumley 2022-04-05T00:09:05Z

Love the voiceover! Also, a few little features you added, like the falling building parts and extra points for shooting two asteroids at once added some nice depth to the gameplay.

For critique, I noticed the laser aim doesn't match where the mouse cursor is (at least on the web version) which made it difficult to aim. Also, sometimes the particle effect on the asteroid does not follow the direction the asteroid is moving.

Overall it's a fun game!

Tax Mage by cagibi 2022-04-05T21:08:44Z

The knockback on attacking really adds an extra level of difficulty to a simple platformer. Had a lot of fun!

Ant CRISIS by Ambear 2022-04-05T15:25:01Z

I love the use of 3D environment in a top-down approach. Some things to improve on: The lighting makes it hard to navigate, which could add to gameplay difficulty, but in this case only adds frustration. I also had issues being able to pick up some plants. Not sure if that was a bug or a feature.

Overall I think it's a great project that has a lot of potential for future development.

Tick Tock by Mandytoh 2022-04-05T20:58:03Z

Amazingly grim atmosphere. I love the art you created.

Living the Dream by darandin 2022-04-05T12:49:48Z

This is a tough little resource management game. I got to the point where I didn't have enough energy to work, but too poor to eat. A grim depiction of the economic struggles of the peasant class. Fun to play though!

Atomic Force by robojeb 2022-04-05T00:57:55Z

I like the use of radioactive elements to tie into the theme. The quarks sound like a swarm of bees and become very difficult to avoid. It's cool how the ship gets knocked around when hit, though it happens so fast it's hard to tell where I got hit from. I also appreciate the inclusion of multiple difficulty levels.

Kessler by EagleV 2022-04-05T20:32:45Z

Great pixel art style and music. I managed 47 seconds. The difficulty definitely ramps up quickly

1868 by Andy Beers 2022-04-05T22:26:30Z

The court portion was a little tough, I agree with the color coding idea. It's definitely a unique game that would benefit from some balancing. Overall I had fun!

Gemship Wars by darzu 2022-04-05T20:28:43Z

I really like the use of sound in this game. It feels relaxing (while your ship is shattering around you) :)

Exclusion Zone by ambrits 2022-04-06T00:52:20Z

Great game! For the future, I think it would be cool to see more varied maps (maybe with unbuildable tiles).

It's like they knew... by boc_dev 2022-04-05T21:22:35Z

This one is tricky. I found the best strategy is not to stop while drawing the line. Otherwise, you might get stopped in a spot where the red balls are unavoidable. Really fun and satisfying

MooshiMooshi by AnonymousPanda 2022-04-05T21:26:31Z

I like the visuals and the sound. It's quite mesmerizing. It could use a way to exit the game if you give up

Kessler by jcg 2022-04-05T00:21:43Z

This is one of the more unique games I've seen so far. I like how you incorporated gravitational physics into the gameplay. Adding the ability to change the trajectory of the missile adds a bit of depth to the gameplay. The graphics are simple but effective, and the sound effects help convey what's going on (though I'd like to see some background music added in the future).

Also, adding feedback for shooting the star is a cool little easter egg.

Digital Pet by the3rdHunter 2022-04-05T00:44:26Z

I tried neglecting my digital pet, but it never died (maybe I didn't wait long enough?). Also think the game balance could use some tuning as I was able to rack up a ton of money by smashing the work button.

Overall it's a pretty simple resource game that gives me nostalgia for the Tamagotchi pets from my childhood. It's a great start with some potential for future development. Nice work!

Lights Out by Dan Livings 2022-04-04T22:25:03Z

It's a great base concept that I would love to see expanded on. I enjoyed the simple visuals and straight-forward gameplay.
