LD55 — Summoning (11)

Summoning by Gao Ming 2024-04-18T11:52:02Z ♥ 1

Simple but very very effective! This is great, the mood is perfect with the sounds reciting the summoning, gameplay is clever, I enjoyed it!

Dicey Demons by UkuleleFury 2024-04-18T11:43:03Z ♥ 5

Beautiful spectres designs, I love dice games! Great mood too :)

Summoning Ritual by velvetlobster 2024-04-17T20:27:50Z ♥ 1

I loved the pixel art! The movement and animations feel very satisfying; everything flows smoothly. Great job. About the story I was like NOOO WHY WHOULD YOU DO THIS OMG I THOUGHT THIS WAS A CUTE STORY😭 Thank you for that ending! :)

Gravediver by echerry 2024-04-17T20:17:55Z ♥ 3

Grids? Crafting? Discovering new recipes? I am sold! The pixel art is beautiful, the mood of the game is very well accomplished.

The energy mechanic where you place stuff to gain energy and lose it when the chasm expands is genius! Really clever design choice there!

Thank you for making it! I enjoyed it!

Burn with me by Nozomu57 2024-04-17T16:14:37Z ♥ 1

The card designs are cool, I love neighbour rules :) and the wiggly text was a fun touch.

I would love to be able to take my card back but I understand coding that could be a lot more work for the jam

I got a little mixed up between 'sacrifice' and 'burn.' They seemed to overlap but also not? A bit more clarity there could be awesome. Overall, great entry! Thank you for making it!

Tristram by Rongo Matane 2024-04-17T13:33:08Z ♥ 4

The pixel art is beautiful, especially the characters and the mood of the town. There's so much variety in both heroes and enemies!

The game feels well balanced, and I found myself getting attached to the characters and feeling bad when one of my best heroes die.

One thing I'd loved to see is more agency in party formation. Sometimes the swapping wasn't as beneficial as I hoped, and I'd end up with healers on the frontlines. Maybe I am missing something?

Overall, this looks super promising! I really hope you guys keep developing it or exploring this idea! Great job!

Demon Well by 100th_Coin 2024-04-17T12:23:52Z ♥ 1

The voice acting and humor are spot-on, making everything feel perfectly natural. It's a great compo entry! The dorky demon is a real treat, and the attention to detail, like the stars. I actually felt bad for poor Henrik πŸ˜‚

Awesome job, always a pleasure to play your entries!

Evil Wizard Tower Tycoon by Matthieu Riboulot 2024-04-17T02:10:51Z ♥ 2

I'm impressed! So many different and beautiful designs for the creatures. The game explanation was super clear, and the interface was a pleasure to navigate.

It also feels like you've nailed the balance, played for a while and everything seemed fair. The only thing I noticed were trolls cost 6 and only have 1 HP and low stats, maybe this was intended to be the other way around? Or maybe they are just trolls :P

Can we talk about those cards? The visual and sound effects are spot-on for them. I also liked the humor in the card descriptions!

As I played more, I started to realize I was planning my next turns rather than the one immediately coming, which is always a sign of a great game.

Overall, fantastic work! I really enjoyed this entry!

6 Kadabra Resurgam Ocus by nathmate 2024-04-16T15:57:08Z ♥ 1

The mechanic is interesting, unique and it matches the theme well. One thing I thought could help speed things up a bit is showing the key for the fingers over them, and maybe always indicate which shapes match the elements

Overall, though, I think you've got something really attractive here. It's definitely worth exploring further. I enjoyed it!

gladiatorium by Jejkobb 2024-04-16T15:27:37Z ♥ 3

Adorable! The creatures are just too cute, the design for the four different gladiators is spot-on. Loved the sound effects, especially with the dialogues. Drawing those shapes feels very satisfying, though I did struggle a bit with the triangle. Other than that, fantastic job!

One thing I really enjoyed was strategizing which gladiators to pit against each other based on their skills. Adds a nice layer of strategy to the game.

Overall, great work! I enjoyed it!

Blood, Sweat and Seals by Achiru 2024-04-16T14:47:07Z ♥ 2

I love the whole rune-drawing thing to summon soldiers, the blood looks REALLY good, it's a unique twist. Discovering new runes and summoning different units keeps it interesting. I was missing a couple runes the firsts levels and I was surprised with myself that I couldn't think of other shapes to try! In the end I think I got'em all but not after quite some tries.

It wasn't always clear to me which units were best against others. But hey, maybe that adds to the fun of figuring it out, right? Overall, solid job on the game! It's got potential.

LD54 — Limited Space (6)

Corporate Courier Deluxe by JuanRod707 2023-10-06T15:13:16Z ♥ 2

Cool game, expected the smuggled packages to progress the story in some way towards an ending. Didn't notice the smuggled packages were not resetting my timer till it was too late πŸ˜…

Solarkid Sacrifice by SirMilkman 2023-10-06T03:39:05Z ♥ 0

Love the idea of the game! Got to wave 8, I just wish I could play for a bit more before the darkness consumes me. Nothing that can't be tweaked with some changes on the numbers though! Great entry :)

SLONOKOT by katamary 2023-10-06T02:45:30Z ♥ 3

Very nice! I like how the movement feels, sloppy but not unfair, it really gives the sense of trying to move through limited space :) Great entry

Ribbon 2 by 100th_Coin 2023-10-05T21:47:43Z ♥ 1

Great idea and execution! Loved the twist at the end πŸ˜‚

Packed to the Gills by npckc 2023-10-03T12:55:45Z ♥ 3

Great entry! Very cute art and smart gameplay. I enjoyed it :)

Gulvis Journey by J0ye 2023-10-03T12:33:46Z ♥ 0

Good idea for the theme! The game is well put together and very engaging from the beginning. I was not expecting the gun πŸ˜‚ Great entry :)

LD53 — Delivery (3)

Ravenhaul by Rongo Matane 2023-05-05T16:15:03Z ♥ 2

Very polished I love this kind of games with a base, single scene and a couple things to interact. I think they are perfect for jams and you guys nailed it! Loved the diversity of birds and the mood of the location :)

Mail owl by vidarn 2023-05-03T20:25:37Z ♥ 1

Cute game with clever puzzles. I liked it!

Holding Out by Jeremy Ryan 2023-05-03T20:19:33Z ♥ 2

Love the art, great take on humor Gary sounds just like your average customer support guy πŸ˜‚ Very polished, I enjoyed, congrats for the entry!

LD51 — Every 10 seconds (5)

Peter OS by Brandsma 2022-10-06T00:51:18Z ♥ 2

Cool game! So many references, I kept searching for more ^^

Great entry, I enjoyed it!

Room Again by SofiGnedova 2022-10-05T21:38:38Z ♥ 3

Cool game and very clever mechanic to keep an item through the loop! Learning through the loop reminded me of twelve minutes :)

The mood was amazing, it looks polished and the difficulty of the puzzles was just right, the 10 second span and character's speed allowed to try enough combinations of items to not make it frustrating to have it reset that quick.

Great entry! I enjoyed it ^^

autoball by torcado 2022-10-05T16:53:23Z ♥ 1

I'm usually not a fan of this kind of games but this one is so well executed, so well done. It feels satisfying and rewarding when you get a good combo. It has a bit of strategy and a bit of luck which I like.

Great entry! I enjoyed it :)

Tenjutsu by deepnight 2022-10-05T16:45:58Z ♥ 1

Loved it! It feels very satisfying to hit the enemies, the skull mechanic is an excellent idea and the art is great.

Solid entry! Thanks for making it! ^^

Swapwood Quest R by Saturnyoshi 2022-10-05T16:12:36Z ♥ 0

Great take on the theme! The art is amazing, the mechanics are well thought.

I found it a bit hard at the beginning to grasp the swapping and the combos and couldn't make them as fast as I wanted to, but eventually I got a bit better with practice ^^.

10 seconds is a really short window and this game exploits that very well. The difficulty curve gets interesting after a few levels which is great too.

Solid entry, very polished! Thanks for making this!

LD50 — Delay the inevitable (5)

Giraffe o'Clock by Kepsert 2022-04-09T16:35:07Z ♥ 1

Loved the art and the palette choice. The edge grabbing mechanic felt great 😁 Good entry, I enjoyed it!

Heat by Wuppos 2022-04-07T16:35:30Z ♥ 0

Very well done. Nice take on the theme, I enjoyed it :)

Sorting Algorithm by lectvs 2022-04-06T16:07:19Z ♥ 1

Very well done. It was ineed a bit creepy, but I loved it. The way it captures your attention is very effective, a great experience overall

Shotgun King: the Final Checkmate by benjamin 2022-04-06T00:10:13Z ♥ 1

Incredibly addictive! Great entry, very polished!

Sisyphus - The Game by poupiste 2022-04-05T23:41:34Z ♥ 2

Great entry! I enjoyed it

LD49 — Unstable (4)

Horse with a Human Mask on A Tightrope by jefvel 2021-10-06T17:06:52Z ♥ 1

Very cool, moving through the rope was pretty hard for me but loved the feeling of the slash attack. The mood was great.

I enjoyed this entry, cool stuff

Stable Meltdown by EvilScotsman 2021-10-06T16:28:39Z ♥ 3

Loved the art and the mood the game has. Wasn't expecting that many animals so that's cool! Once I got into the cow and ostrich area I felt like I was walking in the wrong neighbourhood πŸ˜‚

Great entry!

Hexworld by icxon 2021-10-05T21:06:23Z ♥ 2

Very interesting mechanic! Loved the whole idea and the mood, music and sound effects were great too. Didn't expect to see unit variety, so that was a great surprise!

It is great that outer slots decay first, so you can sort of build the way you like and protect important buildings. I'm having some issues to place the slots exactly where I want them but I guess it adds more to the chaotic nature of the game πŸ˜›

There is lot of possibilities to expand this game, from terrains with effects to more unit and building types. Hope you keep developing this one! I enjoyed it

First Flight by defectivemelon 2021-10-05T20:42:10Z ♥ 2

Very polished and relaxing experience. Good puzzles, great input feedback. The only thing I can say is I wish I could go to the next level with a key like spacebar (if there is one I couldn't find it).

Overall, great game! I enjoyed it :)

LD48 — Deeper and deeper (12)

Aquarial by AidanMarkham 2021-05-01T23:46:18Z ♥ 1

Loved this one! Great dialogues and mood ^^

Deep Dream by oscarglo 2021-04-30T15:46:15Z ♥ 1

This is nice! Clever stuff ^^

Asterisk by Crychair 2021-04-27T22:44:14Z ♥ 6

Very visually pleasing. The voice acting just sells it for me. Great work! I enjoyed it ^^

Dungeon Painter by IanTheBee 2021-04-27T22:31:20Z ♥ 1

Very clever! I liked it ^^. Almost gave me a heart attack the first time I ran into a spike

Nostril Navigator by Xenon27 2021-04-27T22:28:04Z ♥ 1

This is the kind of weird shit I expect to play on LD. Great work.

Bunny Bunny Dig Dig by ZakAmana 2021-04-27T22:27:06Z ♥ 0

Plenty of games with the concept of digging but this one executes it just perfectly. Well done

Deepest Sword by Strega 2021-04-27T22:16:35Z ♥ 1

Art is superb. Very clever design. The sword feel, the heaviness. It's just right.

Great work, I enjoyed it ^^

Journey for the Records of Remembrance by jasontherand 2021-04-27T22:07:25Z ♥ 2

Good game. I liked the exploration, once I got to the 4th planet area and asteroids were going everywhere it got pretty difficult. I also liked that you get new abilities when you reach other planets

The Camera Is Watching by Pink Spaceman 2021-04-27T22:00:52Z ♥ 1

Hey, this game has a good idea! I like the animal robbers art.

It took me a bit to understand what could I interact with and how did it affect the policeman, but once I did I got the robbers in and out ^^

Cave48 by Sergeech 2021-04-27T21:53:42Z ♥ 0

Hey! I liked the managing between going to farm ores and keeping watch on the drill part. The character's beam looked nice too.

What I liked the most was the exploration part, looking for ores. I was a bit disappointed to see ores don't deplete so there's no need to go search for more.

I know you opted out of Audio ratings, but I'd like to add that music does wonders for games. There's plenty of free tracks available. Try to get some for your next game!

Cheers!

Cave Bound by Sn4pi 2021-04-27T21:39:07Z ♥ 1

Very spelunky-like! Even with the difficulty. I like it. Art and animations are on point. There's some issues with the rope from time to time where you warp through walls, once warped out of the map :(

But overall really enjoyable. Good job

Lo Fishing by luizdev 2021-04-27T21:31:34Z ♥ 3

I like the art, music and overall mood of the game, great job on that! I might be missing something but I ended up being stuck, had not enough length to reach the fish and not enough coins to purchase more length

LD47 — Stuck in a loop (4)

Looper by Shortbread 2020-10-06T21:37:45Z ♥ 1

Interesting game. Very clean in all areas. Some levels are truly challenging. I enjoyed this one!

Grave Juice by Firebelley 2020-10-06T21:02:22Z ♥ 2

Great game. Solid in every aspect. I enjoyed it!

Convolooption by potatopancakes 2020-10-06T02:49:31Z ♥ 1

The input feels awesome. Great take on the theme I liked it!

GIANT Sushi Party! by Barbiche 2020-10-06T01:49:06Z ♥ 3

Very good mood. I like the experimenting. The art is an excelent fit with the music, and the customers 'hello' is a great touch.

Wish I could do more with the dishes. Great game, good take on the theme :)

LD45 — Start with nothing (3)

Amnesiac Adventurer by justinooncx 2019-10-08T02:24:37Z ♥ 1

Great idea. At first I was like... why is he walking backwards. Oh waaaait. Nice take on the theme :)

Contraband by AdamCYounis 2019-10-08T01:16:52Z ♥ 2

Nice graphics with plenty of mechanics! Pretty cool :D

Afloat by Nigma 2019-10-08T01:07:45Z ♥ 0

I liked it. Pretty neat idea, nice use of the theme and interesting mechanic. Would've loved for some more complicated patterns to unlock new terrains. Great job ^^

LD44 — Your life is currency (29)

HackZ Memories by Black Potion 2019-05-02T03:57:28Z ♥ 1

Kept me playing for a while! It has more depth than what it seems at the beginning. I liked the pixelated faces with messages :)

Removed by Cuppycat 2019-05-02T02:25:48Z ♥ 1

Simple and right to the point. Nailed a good entry! I liked the graphics, particularly the animation when death appears/disappears! I kept moving back and forth to trigger it :P

Path of Redemption by Simon Rahnasto 2019-05-02T01:46:05Z ♥ 4

Outstanding! Loved the art. Great work on narrations, combat mechanics are on point. There were even puzzles! With a way to get them solved if you couldn't. Truly amazing work, congratulations!

Arena of Life by ChicoMCastro 2019-05-02T01:25:28Z ♥ 1

Great job on the graphics! It could definitely get to a more polished state easily with some tweaks on the speed and on the colliders. I like that you die if you choose no points on health ^^

Angry Planet by grllle 2019-05-02T00:13:25Z ♥ 1

Cute and original! Nice entry

This is your life now by reuno 2019-05-01T23:48:56Z ♥ 1

Very well done. The options felt original and realistic, way too realistic maybe. It was fun, I enjoyed this approach to the theme ^^

Gacha by zchen 2019-05-01T17:17:55Z ♥ 0

Amazing art! I liked the idea and the messages for each toy were well thought. Nice job :)

Found a small bug where if you pay two times without picking up the previous toy the first one is lost, not gamebreaking at all but thought I'd let you know

Slice of Scythe by Miyolophone 2019-05-01T17:09:53Z ♥ 1

Minigames are fun and the game overall looks pretty polished! Nice job, I liked the artstyle :)

Fehu by graebor 2019-05-01T06:06:41Z ♥ 0

Bravo! What an artpiece! I don't think I've played a game like this before. Truly captivating, great work :)

Blood and goods by selewi 2019-05-01T01:59:45Z ♥ 2

Oh boy the visuals! What an astonishing game. Great atmosphere, gameplay was entertaining and everything felt truly polished! Great work guys

PATH, a game of life by Ekilibr 2019-05-01T00:46:47Z ♥ 1

Great visuals! The animations and map popping up feel great for this kind of exploration game. I didn't quite get why I was a cupboard though :D

utsvulten by ditto 2019-04-30T20:23:20Z ♥ 0

What did you just bring upon this cursed land!?!

All right, let's play this weird game. -Oh! A grape, let's pick it up, eat the grape, what a tasty grape. Here, you can have some too my friend. OH MY GOD I'm so sorry I didn't mean to take your scalp off! Here you can have it back, what's this? BRAINZZ, here have some of your own brains too, do you wanna try mine?

Great artstyle and audio.

Geopolitics by Alex Lutay 2019-04-30T20:10:44Z ♥ 0

I like the visuals, but without more information it's hard to tell what's going on.

From what I understood you get gold each turn that you can use to improve your territories, leveling them up lets you have a bigger army, training an army gives you soldiers and defending improves your defenses to avoid being invaded.Now, to attack and occupy other territories you must have an army bigger than the defense of that territory, right?

Curfe by Kajetan Andrzejak 2019-04-30T19:59:27Z ♥ 2

I liked the powerups and their pun names. The music fits so well with the movement of the game I found myself going up and down to its rythm! Well done!

Seaway by Constantin 2019-04-30T19:53:15Z ♥ 1

What a captivating atmosphere! Water and islands graphics are on point. The audio gets you into this calm and smooth sensation while sailing. Outstanding work!

Myrrh by bwalter 2019-04-30T19:41:42Z ♥ 1

Captivating story and great visuals! Narrow paths where a pain (horizontal paths on the dock area when getting the skull) Apart from that, solid entry!

Your life is my money by squaredev 2019-04-30T19:17:09Z ♥ 3

Awesome models. The polished look of them all and the environment really sold this game for me. I liked the little quests, left me eager for more :)

Sheep It by anstabo 2019-04-30T19:13:57Z ♥ 2

Was a bit let down when the tube spit a key and it landed on the road where I couldn't pick it up :( but apart from that, automating sheeps... just genius! Loved the artstyle, the animations, the environment, the music. Simply amazing. Awesome work.

A Cup's Life by Anderssonkev 2019-04-30T18:51:25Z ♥ 1

Original. Great art, audio and mechanics! Heartwarming ending :)I had fun but most importantly, I loved the sugar dude's face ^^

Death Alley by DuzzOnDrums 2019-04-30T18:36:05Z ♥ 1

Looks amazing! The characters and furniture bouncing in the room gave a nice atmosphere. The game transmits perfectly the feeling of power after landing successful hits on the bar and it feels very rewarding.

Great entry!

Lunch Lord by madjackmcmad 2019-04-30T17:16:54Z ♥ 1

Very well done! Love the progression and having my minions moving around! Got 6th on the scoreboard, but still need to unlock some minions. Will keep playing a bit more. Great game!

Field Rations by Spennerino 2019-04-30T16:52:53Z ♥ 1

Innovative! The commands mechanics is interesting (Thought I was on some kind of development build at first)

As you said in one of your comments the delay is too aggressive and makes commands a bit of a pain. With some tweaking it can get to some really good place though!

Darkest Decision by pmarincak 2019-04-30T16:41:51Z ♥ 3

What an awesome atmosphere! Loved the characters, the music and sounds simply sell it to me, very well done!

A Moment To Reflect by tcstyle 2019-04-30T16:36:19Z ♥ 1

Didn't get why everyone was crying :( but the parrot is cute. Nice interpretation ^^

Keep Dem' Sick ! by VuvuzuellaInc 2019-04-30T16:30:47Z ♥ 1

Cool idea! I liked it. When I read the controls were ZQSD I thought no way, how am I supposed to move? Luckily arrow keys worked too :P Is there any way to get new patients once they get full health?

Mosquito Hunter by mharring 2019-04-30T15:33:15Z ♥ 1

Nice tongue-hook mechanics :P Great art overall, the animations are really good! Good work!

safecrack by torcado 2019-04-30T15:25:34Z ♥ 0

Excellent game. Art and sound on point, simple gameplay but really really polished! I enjoyed it, good work!

Idle Idol by Daniel Moreno 2019-04-30T14:58:38Z ♥ 0

Excellent art and audio. Wish there was something else to click apart from the main idol. Like little idols that pop up and you gotta click them before they vanish, but overall great game, very polished.

D.R.I.E.D. by JasonD 2019-04-30T14:40:02Z ♥ 1

Excellent art. Unforgiving wasteland, I like it. Nice take on the theme. Did the parts, armour, weapons and mobility help in any way? As in help on the resolution of an event? If I encounter a fight and had armour will I take less fuel damage? It was the only thing that wasn't clear for me. Apart from that great work guys! ^^
