LD45 — Start with nothing (2)

You Lose. Good Day, Sir. by Carraka 2019-10-17T04:35:19Z ♥ 1

Excellent stuff! My team also thought of a scrabble-like game where you start with "nothing" so it was really great to see what another team could do with that same concept! I really like how it starts off simple, and shows off how the clue system works. I love how the music starts layering as the plot advances! Great job on the armadillo having so many unique responses to words during different parts of the game! I wish the final clue had a small prompt to it, because I almost thought the game bugged out... but besides that, I had a blast.

My final score was 565!

lotor by torcado 2019-10-11T01:03:50Z ♥ 2

Took me a second to figure out what was going on, then it all clicked! Trying to build around mistakes blindly or rushing when the eye powerup appears is fun. I screamed when I accidentally placed one of those spinning death trap things over the goal I placed, but still managed to make it, anyway!

LD42 — Running out of space (20)

We Have Important Work To Do by Five Side Studios 2018-08-24T01:55:44Z ♥ 1

Made my day to see the Yo Noid! 2 ad, haha. Reminds me of the good ol' days... so many pop-ups.

No disk space by rayriver 2018-08-23T10:32:44Z ♥ 0

Managed to get endings 1 and 3, but couldn't figure out how to get the others... I love that the multiple endings are shown in-game as a crash log, that's some great polish, right there. I especially like that downloading more applications takes up space, making the game harder, and then that turns on you in the end!

Valdi: Shadows by beepyeah 2018-08-23T09:20:05Z ♥ 1

Cute little puzzle game! I felt some of the levels in the second half were a bit easy, but honestly I prefer that to impossible. The mechanics are displayed well so I think I just caught on fast. That last level is what it's all about: taking everything you know from the game and using it in a slightly different way... it was a very well-executed final challenge!

The Consumer by foolmoron 2018-08-23T09:10:47Z ♥ 1

Wow this is very innovative and challenging! Love the premise, too... it's like I'm being quizzed on the content I'm watching, and if I fail that's it! Like how you can't see the next chapter in an RPG if you can't beat the boss, but applied to TV instead of games if that makes sense?

Some of the text styles I got were similar to eachother at one point so it was a bit hard to to tell the difference on those. I think I'll be revisiting this one and showing some pals this after LD, it's seriously great.

Passengers Tetris by Gao Ming 2018-08-23T08:39:37Z ♥ 0

Was not expecting the passengers to explode! Managed to get a combo at one point, it's pretty challenging to do! This is a unique take on 3D tetris, I like how it's the heads in specific you need to line up.

no-kill by daniel 2018-08-23T08:11:57Z ♥ 1

Really good take on the theme! The movement is so slow I almost wish it was a clicker game, though. Love the procedurally-generated dogs, found one that looked a bit like a big lizard.

OVERLOADED by rainysolar 2018-08-23T05:38:21Z ♥ 1

These passengers are so rude, impatiently entering from the back of the bus... I can't help but drive away without them. It's very satisfying to do. Very funny, and mostly-accurate-to-life game!

Edgy Fantasy Battle Deluxe by Shess 2018-08-23T05:26:32Z ♥ 3

The graphics and music were spot on! Great work of parody, and a well-incorporated jam theme. Started to run out of space just at the end, so I could tell this was well-playtested.

Six Spaces by Star Garden 2018-08-23T05:12:14Z ♥ 1

I really like this! The art was cute, but I mistook some NPCs for enemies a few times, oops. At first I thought it was going to be super difficult, but I quickly caught on to this clever little puzzle adventure! Well done!

Grimder by CraigDuth 2018-08-23T04:52:19Z ♥ 0

Very fun concept, was excited to play this one when I saw it come up. I just kinda wish the game would stop... moaning at me. Also I sent someone to hell for thinking being gay was a choice and the game punished me so uh... maybe removing the "correct choice" thing altogether would just be for the best?

Accurate Exam Simulator by Yasaman 2018-08-23T04:38:13Z ♥ 2

Really unique take on the theme! I like how there's multiple exam layouts if you play multiple times. I only managed to get a 31... what can I say, I was never the best at exams!

California Jane by fivenamefivesocks 2018-08-23T04:33:16Z ♥ 1

Wow this is so polished! Loved the music and that levels had tutorial text. I got stuck on level... it might have been 14? I was supposed to keep a switch pressed so I could jump on the gold idol to the end but couldn't figure it out. Wish I could have gotten further, but it was already impressive!

Falling Ecosystem by sprvrn 2018-08-20T23:46:30Z ♥ 0

Wow, it takes a lot to build a skyscraper. Still not sure what the black resource is after finishing the game twice. The tooltip on the hearts is good, not sure why the other resources didn't have one? I think a quick text guide in the description to clear up what stuff is and what it does would be helpful! My final score was 4820!

The National Library of Geometric Impossibilities by nanolotl 2018-08-20T23:07:23Z ♥ 0

Loved this! I'm a sucker for mundane-ish games, and the impossible geometry was very fun to work around. The prize for beating the game is perfect.

TINY TOWNS by BearishMushroom 2018-08-20T22:48:19Z ♥ 1

Cute little puzzle game, with a great city building twist! After a few levels the mechanics become very clear, yet the puzzles remain challenging. Well done!

Crystalmancer by Crowno 2018-08-20T22:31:30Z ♥ 0

Loved the take on the theme, but the game is way too difficult! Enemies can attack me as soon as I enter a room and it just doesn't feel fair. That said, the music and graphics were spot-on. I really like the palette swap option!

Loot Keeper by outstar 2018-08-20T22:14:35Z ♥ 0

Made it to level 10! I got the refrigerator item from a small chest once - really liked that feeling of having a large, useless item that you have to sort away very quickly. I feel like if the game let you just drag & drop items instead of click & WASD, it would have controlled better, but I don't know for sure. Near the end of my playthough, it felt better to just press on instead of trying to work new items into my inventory. Loved the sad trombone game over, though!

.S by torcado 2018-08-14T08:01:18Z ♥ 0

Wow, it has so many levels! I wasn't able to finish everything, but I'm impressed with the unique game mechanics and how they're used to solve puzzles. So many little "a-ha!" moments with every level. Fits the theme perfectly, too! I like the minimalist style, but it did make the introduction of the "warp" mechanic a bit confusing.

There is Never Enough Space!!! by Jamie Rollo 2018-08-14T02:38:56Z ♥ 1

The art was lovely! The "clear a path" puzzle was tricky for only 10 seconds so I'm glad it was level 2. Really liked the effect at the end of the final puzzle!

Shelf Life by Grawly 2018-08-14T02:06:02Z ♥ 0

Had me laughing the entire time! The game is crazy-polished, too. I especially love the rating screen at the end of a level.

LD35 — Shapeshift (4)

ORIKAMI by Mnemusyne 2016-04-21T02:33:00

Just fantastic. Great audio, animation, and atmosphere. The ending really got to me.

Lyrebird by Qaterknan 2016-04-20T14:38:00

I really enjoyed the simple graphics, paired with the door animation! It's incredibly challenging, but I like that it gives you time to "rehearse" your performance

Sculpt Master by LimeniusTeam 2016-04-19T21:39:00

At first I was a bit overwhelmed, but after I got what was going on I really enjoyed this!! Having a game over state is a bit cruel, and I wish I got infinite tries. Very nice puzzle tho!!

CHORUS by Pantelis Petsopoulos 2016-04-19T21:32:00

Almost got a new high score, ended up with 59220 points on hard mode! Managing what shape comes next was a bit tricky, but I can see that's it's part of the design!
