LD46 — Keep it alive

Blightstone by Nimphious 2020-04-20T08:46:10Z

Snappy as a Smash Title. Too bad you didnt make it in time. I really want to see if you will continue with this project beyond LD46. Good luck if you do !

So cute and cuddly. I really love this game, and the tutorial is good enough to be a level on its own. The sound part was done masterfully, and the sound that med packs made when dropped is so crisp and clear. I really like that you can also use med packs as a makeshift dash, as it slows down Remy. Congrats!

Light in the Dark by SirTyler 2020-04-20T11:21:38Z

Cool idea, and super crisp graphics. I really love the shadows, and the way the light is attached to the character. The jumping mechanic acts like the character is on the ISS, but its ok. Would love to see more levels, and hopefully even more secrets.

Plant Stranding by NykolaR 2020-04-20T01:35:29Z

At first i didnt even know that reaching the heart was a failstate. That was interesting

juxta.LINE by fiaKaiera 2020-04-20T08:55:07Z

The entire game seems to pulsate at the same beat, and the controls are really snappy. Its very tense, and its quite hard, not gonna lie. Couldnt even tell it was made in 24 hours. The entire project looks polished beyond a professional levels. Congrats for it!

Heartbreaking by mAnimal 2020-04-20T10:02:41Z

Goddamn! This was a grueling. I love playing this game, and i have spent about half an hour playing it. Its just wonderfull. A slight problem that i found was that sometimes, keeping the jump button midair locked me out of using the heartspin, but that is an easy fix, so no points deducted for that! Good luck on keeping this project going!

Coronary Flypass by squirmonkey 2020-04-20T15:22:30Z

Bastardly pigeons! One time, one of them got lodged inbetween the drone and the basket, and carried me all the way back to the start! It was really fun balancing the basket on top of the drone in the end screen. Great game!

Spirit Quest: Journey to Devil's Mound by TheseusInABottle 2020-04-20T14:23:01Z

The music just blew me away. Aside from the ear piercing common sounds, this game was a nice time-waster. Kudos!

Crumbling Home by Becher 2020-04-20T18:01:48Z

The viewed-out shot at the end and start of the game is just awesome to watch. Great animation

Keep it alive by zuf 2020-04-20T10:35:46Z

Isn't that the sprite from baba is you? The one for the red enemy from level 6 and 7? Anyway, stellar design, and a fun ideea.

Keep it alive by zuf 2020-04-20T10:58:26Z

@zuf I suggest adding a visual efect when brushing by the spikes at low speed, and actually kill the player when colliding at high speeds. It should help the control scheme.

just a boring topdown shooter by Kinshuk_thebest 2020-04-20T09:46:46Z

Cool game, and the title misleads you to think this game is focused on shooting. I really love the way in which the villain talks to you. The branch for losing is also great. I guess a "I give up" button would be just the ironic touch it needs to really flesh out this game. Protip : strafe up and down while shooting towards the artifact from the sides to instantly win.

Saviour by SkelleRoznik 2020-04-20T17:14:55Z

The background music made me feel like i was in the belly of some kind of gigant. With really acute bowel problems. Great game, albeit a bit slow. Maybe increase the speed when holding down a mouse button?

Star Buffs by MAJK_FL 2020-04-20T01:16:25Z

Really love the idea. Would be nice to see what kind of buffs you gave. The boost doesnt seem to be doing anything tho. Really great lighting as well.

Lighthouse Keeper and the Shadow Pirates by cagibi 2020-04-20T17:07:49Z

Just ... wow The music, graphics, and atmosphere are perfect. For it to be completed in such a short timeframe, i am only able to salute you. Great game

Let's stick together by syo 2020-04-20T10:26:05Z

I just love the way it works, and the graphics are pure gold. Kudos for the extra snappy sense and professional finish!

Uncomplited LD46 Game by Moomka 2020-04-20T09:01:47Z

I just love the shader you used for the walls. The controls are a bit finicky, but it somehow emanates a sense of urgency when running from an enemy in a turn based game. Just wow. Nice

Save the station by Alexander Termer 2020-04-20T11:07:45Z

I suggest striking out the audio section from the voting pool, as it might drag your game down. The game is stellar, and the "tutorial" was enough for me to play for a dozen minutes. Great game

Space Station Alpha by kjscott 2020-04-20T17:27:47Z

I just love it, and its pico presentation is just perfect for these kind of spaceships! Congrats!

Rock. The Game. by jaschez 2020-04-20T11:24:49Z

This is such a polished game, its hard to believe it was made on such short notice. The graphics look like a modern reimagination of the ps2 graphics. And the really snappy and expressive controls crown this masterpiece. The eulogies are pretty cool too.

The Mandalorian from the hit TV show the Mandolorian by Cleberoni 2020-04-20T15:06:42Z

error : 404. Link's dead

Medusa by PrincessChooChoo 2020-04-20T14:57:28Z

Whoa, I just love the tentacles, and how you can shoot them with the ship, or how they wither away when they are hit closer to the core. Great game!

Mr.Virus by Blackgoku36 2020-04-20T17:56:44Z

Not gonna lie, the way the mask moves is as smooth as butter. Also, nice ease-out effect on the incoming enemies. The green ones are a pain tho. They move so fast

Keep. The. Spike. Alive. by K4V0X 2020-04-20T09:32:46Z

The game was set to draft on the itch.io page I am sorry. thanks for pointing it out Ping ! : @kinshuk-thebest @cateye @whynotyt @bearwey @landerack @jsec

Keep. The. Spike. Alive. by K4V0X 2020-04-20T10:05:13Z

Oh god no. How did that happen? Do you think you can describe the circumstances in which your game crashed? I don't know if i can edit it to patch that, but i would like to know either way. @hanamigi

Keep. The. Spike. Alive. by K4V0X 2020-04-20T10:22:39Z

Thank you for your kind words, stranger. Fun fact : the build that i submitted seems to have the double decay factor disabled. Normally, when the spike energy goes below the warning sign, it gets red and starts decaying more rapidly, increasing the decay factor permanently. Items also have a preeeety low hp and clip size, a decision that made sense when i made it, which has backfired horribly. Playtesting is important, i guess.

Keep. The. Spike. Alive. by K4V0X 2020-04-20T10:39:09Z

Noted. Thank you for your feedback. I will try to solve the problem, and publish another bug free version. As i might have mixed up the builds, all the previous links will kept as is, and will be tagged accordingly.

Keep. The. Spike. Alive. by K4V0X 2020-04-20T18:13:05Z

As stated in the description, weapons fire automatically when fired. Just equip it and you are good to go. Drop everything you have in your inventory and press v to end the game.

Kill the undead - keep her alive (for as long as you can) by Gaspar Laprida 2020-04-20T14:15:35Z

Quite laggy, and unstable, but the atmosphere really sells it. Great job

Death Spacing by CORRUPTOR2037 2020-04-20T08:31:32Z

Too bad all the loose objects kept piling in a corner. I think the controls should have been a tad bit more snappy. I was stuck a while figuring out i had to hold E to repair an element. Overall great game.

Save the pointer! by onesvenus 2020-04-20T15:03:55Z

Creating an spawn interdiction within a few units from the cursor would be greatly appreciated. Spawncamping a'int fun. Overall a tremendously addictive game. Music would have been nice.
