LD33 — You are the Monster

Beat Bunny by alkazar 2015-08-25T02:18:00

Great job, guys! The game is super cute! The music and art work really well together to create a childish mood.

Most people are saying the game is pretty hard. There's a bit of stutter when a number button is pressed which throws off the rhythm, making it hard to get a good score.

M.M.O.C.E by D3zmodos 2015-09-13T08:44:00

Got it to run on Linux but it crashed as soon as it started with this error:

The monster by mrcdk 2015-09-13T08:56:00

Good job on finding those free resources. Wow!

Hilarious game. It made me LOL for real.

Peace is a lie! by komjaur 2015-08-25T02:55:00

Doesn't run in Linux. It just says "Unity Web Player | dare"

Steve and Clomo by DrPrettyPatty 2015-08-25T02:59:00

How do you run this in Linux?

Purple Monster Attack by KuGrou 2015-08-30T09:23:00

I'm running Linux.
Clicked Options -> Segmentation Fault lol

Interesting game with a nice atmosphere.
It would have been nice to have a countdown timer to let you know how much time you had left to take out people.

Petit Monstre by LeoM 2015-08-25T03:08:00

No idea how to run this in Linux.

Petit Monstre by LeoM 2015-08-30T09:10:00

Thanks for explaining how to run it on Linux. Once you told me what to run and that I had to make it an executable, it was a piece of cake.

Excellent atmosphere.

Hydro Carbon by bentglasstube 2015-08-25T02:40:00

How do I run this in Linux? There are no instructions...

You Are the Alien by kakarotsan 2015-08-25T15:15:00

Darn, that's too bad. Did you want me to make a lower resolution version?

It was kind of hard to account for many resolutions in 3 days ;P

Kraken Babies by johnhattan 2015-08-25T02:47:00

This was very enjoyable! I like the evil "Mary Had a Little Lamb" intro.

Rebellion of the Slimes by someone9999 2015-09-13T08:27:00

The first time I played it I thought the room was too small. After reading the instructions, I finally figured out how to break down the walls. Even after figuring that out though, the waves are still too hard.

Very playable game though, and interesting opening story.

Hero's Quest by GFM 2015-09-13T08:38:00

Good install instructions. Everything ran very nicely on Linux. Nice mood.

The gameplay was not very interesting due to the shortness of the dagger. It could have been a lot better with a longer range, a faster attack, or a variety of slashes.

Nice attempt!

LD37 — One room

13 jellyfish by Four Quarters 2016-12-22T01:35:00

Well put together! Difficult to beat though.

levelone by dietzribi 2016-12-22T01:22:00

The platforming part was really hard and I almost left the game at that point. I'm glad I didn't!

Great job!

levelone by dietzribi 2016-12-22T01:23:00

The platforming part was really hard and I almost left the game at that point. I'm glad I didn't!

I found myself smiling a lot of the time. Great job!

1 biT Strike by SamuelSousa 2016-12-13T13:14:00

I like the shake on a hit. Nice theme consistency.

However, it's hard to see the enemy bullets, it's not very fun due to the monotony, and the controls are very sluggish.

HourGlass Collector by skorpyo 2016-12-13T13:57:00

I couldn't get past the Newton level, but I really wanted to see what the later levels were going to be.

I liked that you didn't have to start from the very beginning when you died and that you respawned immediately. The rule changes were interesting and unexpected. This would be much better with controller support. Some of the platform jumps were too difficult to do with the keyboard.

Well done.

Light in the Dark by afinkyu_Pheaky 2016-12-14T19:04:00

Wow, the size of this game is huge! What is taking up so much space?

Vespias: Battle for the pentacle by Xwilarg 2016-12-22T01:10:00

After I figured out that the arrow keys can move as well as the awful AZERTY scheme things got a lot better.

Is it just me or does white seem way overpowered?

Jar! Jarl! Halla! by JarJarlHalla 2016-12-13T15:02:00

Great game! I was really grooving along to that song, too!

wRoom by Boberro 2016-12-14T19:05:00

I can't download the game for Windows. The site is timing out.

Room King by Mnemusyne 2016-12-22T01:41:00

Solid game!

A normal teenage life... by Tipyx 2016-12-14T19:34:00

I maxed out the bars to green but nothing happened...

Glad You Came by Tonasz 2016-12-13T14:23:00

It would be nice if I didn't have to waste time checking and memorizing the colony map before placing someone. If it was always up in the top left or something, that would smooth out the gameplay. There is also a lot of wasted time moving from the desk to the to the computer, which makes playing the game tedious. Also, almost everyone seemed to be a criminal...

It's a promising concept though.

LD37 - Find The Room by Iak 2016-12-14T19:13:00

The character walked so slowly that it was tedious to search the house.

Hotel To Hell by shrapx 2016-12-22T00:56:00

I have no idea what I'm looking at.

Hero Wardrober by Detocroix 2016-12-13T14:39:00

The game moved way too fast. I could never click and drag in time.

Abducted by HUMANICS 2016-12-13T13:41:00

***** Spoilers below *****

It took me a while to find out that the dark corridor led to another room because it's impossible to see.

I was surprised (in a good way) by the zombies when they first showed up. But when they started flooding the room it was impossible to get a breather to try and figure out how to escape the room.

At first I thought the sawblades were the only things that could kill them, but it turns out any object can kill them (even the cups!). It's too difficult though because some zombies take two hits and there are so few objects in the room to throw (more than the number of zombies even!) and picking up a new object every time takes too long.

The controls are awful. I'm not sure why E was pick up and left click was throw when they could have been the same button.

Nailed the mood and theme though.

Feeding Time by leewalkergm 2016-12-14T19:40:00

It's too bad you had to restart from the very beginning of the game if you got eaten. It would have been nice to restart from the same level.

LD39 — Running out of Power

Spaceship Escape by kakarotsan 2017-07-30T14:59:40Z

The game doesn't have all of the functionality we wanted to add, but it is beatable!

Spaceship Escape by kakarotsan 2017-08-03T09:04:27Z

@pixelbukkake I blocked graphics because I didn't make them myself. They are placeholders that were meant to be swapped out later. :grin:

Saturnalia by graebor 2017-08-03T07:24:35Z

That was incredible. Easily the best game I've played so far this jam.

Gastric Hell by dwemthy 2017-08-04T09:15:34Z

This game reminds me of Lisa. So creepy. Great job!

Yet Another Exhausted Day by Gao Ming 2017-08-03T08:33:14Z

Good: * I loved the opening scene where he just slams into the bed * The knocks that got progressively louder with each level * The mood was well set

To work on: * That 90 degree level was brutal. I couldn't get past it

Well done!

Robot Run by jake 2017-08-01T12:58:45Z

Good: Megaman-like theme

To work on: There's no challenge other than jumping, and then jumping eventually becomes the shortest viable jump the entire time.

Unleaded: The Story of a Van by Lino 2017-08-02T07:21:56Z

Good: * Nice atmosphere

Suggestions: * Add a speedometer * Pickups being so far apart discourage exploration * More scenery (I know... we only had 3 days) * Faster acceleration * Controller support

I feel like there is potential here for doing stunts for points. The ramps certainly encourage that.

Lights Out by Emery 2017-08-01T13:20:53Z

Good: * I loved looking out the windows. The aliens and the Tardis surprised me * I liked the change in atmosphere when the power dropped below 15%

To work on: * Colliding with the ceiling and not being able to reach the upper platforms * Batteries would spawn close by, so there was no real reason to move

Owld by TeddyDD 2017-08-01T13:09:35Z

Hard game but I managed to beat it.

Good: * Wonderful graphics * Nice mood * Dat water! * Innovative healing mechanic

To work on: * Wasn't sure where to go in the beginning and where to put the wood in

Super Power Frenzy by AlexanderTeaH 2017-08-01T13:59:44Z

Good: * Nice mood * Simple yet effective graphics * I liked the boundary mechanics

To work on: * The controls were very frustrating (I used a controller). I couldn't stay alive for more than 5 seconds

DRAIN by LERPish 2017-08-03T07:17:41Z

The boss was impossible. I just kept running out of energy.

Night Driver by nbitsstudio 2017-08-02T07:36:55Z

Dat bloom!!

I had a lot of fun playing this.

LD40 — The more you have, the worse it is

Disintegrate by zenmumbler 2017-12-09T00:38:22Z

That was fun! I wish there was more!

Alphabet Cereal by kakarotsan 2017-12-05T16:26:33Z

@zenmumbler Thanks. Since this was made with Unity, the build should work on all three systems. Which one are you trying it on?

Alphabet Cereal by kakarotsan 2017-12-05T16:29:01Z

@vovin Thanks for the feedback. I had it planned but ran out of time (and energy). I'll add it after the grading.

Alphabet Cereal by kakarotsan 2017-12-05T17:25:25Z

@zenmumbler Ok, I think I've created a proper build for Mac (and Linux as well). Could you try again?

Alphabet Cereal by kakarotsan 2017-12-06T05:30:51Z

@james-dunlap I agree. I was planning on adding scramble pickups but ran out of time. I'll add them later.

I've been so busy with moving that I wasn't able to host a web player. I'll get around to it soon.

Thanks for the feedback!

Alphabet Cereal by kakarotsan 2017-12-06T09:56:07Z

@james-dunlap Web build is up! I'll check out your game now.

Alphabet Cereal by kakarotsan 2017-12-06T18:21:32Z

@zenmumbler I can be clever sometimes - Such as a broken clock is correct twice a day. Haha

Alphabet Cereal by kakarotsan 2017-12-09T01:33:42Z

@wevel They are weighted ;)

``` private char chooseLetter() { float randomNumber = Random.Range (0, 100f); List letterList;

if (randomNumber <= 3.0f) { letterList = new List { 'Q', 'Z' }; } else if (randomNumber > 3.0f && randomNumber <= 9.1f) { letterList = new List { 'J', 'X' }; } else if (randomNumber > 9.1f && randomNumber <= 18.2f) { letterList = new List { 'K' }; } else if (randomNumber > 18.2f && randomNumber <= 30.3f) { letterList = new List { 'F', 'H', 'V', 'W', 'Y' }; } else if (randomNumber > 30.3f && randomNumber <= 45.5f) { letterList = new List { 'B', 'C', 'M', 'P' }; } else if (randomNumber > 45.5f && randomNumber <= 69.7f) { letterList = new List { 'D', 'G' }; } else if (randomNumber > 69.7f && randomNumber <= 100f) { letterList = new List { 'A', 'E', 'I', 'L', 'N', 'O', 'R', 'S', 'T', 'U' }; } else { letterList = new List { 'E' }; //This shouldn't happen }

int number = (int)Random.Range (0, letterList.Count); return letterList [number]; } ```

Also, you can increase your play time by capturing red tiles.

Alphabet Cereal by kakarotsan 2017-12-09T15:58:50Z

@wevel Different difficulty levels sound like a good idea. Thanks for the feedback!

Drone Attack by paruthidotexe 2017-12-05T15:05:56Z

I liked the retro feel.

I wasn't able to fight the boss though. It just said LOADING... at the bottom of the screen after I had collected 10 drones.

The Final Judgement by Epicsoft 2017-12-09T00:47:17Z

I can't understand how to play this game. Is a higher number card more powerful? What does attack mean and when am I supposed to attack? How do I stop the opponent's attack?

Also, choosing 32 cards at the beginning of the game was tedious. It would be better if they were chosen for you.

Party Penguin by LiquidBrain 2017-12-05T16:24:51Z

Wow! That was impressive.

I had to keep looking down at the keyboard for the last level and wasn't able to beat it. Hard mode was a great variant, but remembering the positions of all of the numbers was difficult. Rather than numbers, maybe this could be turned into a typing exercise. It would be a lot easier, and more productive, to be hitting letters instead of numbers in a row. Another option would be placing the numbers in the same positions as the speakers.

Well done.

Overpopulation by julianeder33 2017-12-10T11:45:31Z

It was frustrating trying to click on the moving planets. The orbits and graphics were pretty cool though

Drift Punk by CremaGames 2017-12-06T19:21:37Z

I think I hit a glitch ;)

2017-12-07 04_19_24-Drift Punk.png

Globstopper by James Dunlap 2017-12-06T10:20:14Z

I really enjoyed the boss fights. I actually would have enjoyed fighting just them.

A lot of the issues have been addressed above but this is what I found needing improvement: * The controls were way too touchy. Pressing a button would make me fly across the screen too quickly * There was no reason to fight any of the mini enemies. I could just stay at the top of the screen for most of the game and wait for the boss. * Goop actually helped because the controls were so finicky * I had no idea if the game was ever going to end. I got to stage 5 and lost interest.

I think the game would be great if it was just bosses, with the bosses summoning mini enemies as you fight them.

Sailor Wolf by Pashok 2017-12-05T14:59:41Z

Nice style and concept.

Some issues: Sometimes cats would randomly jump off the raft for no reason. I wasn't able to bring cats on the edge facing the goal onto the raft. Steering itself felt like a full time job.

Piña by MewSoul 2017-12-10T11:49:43Z

Outstanding graphics! Hated the controls.

I'll Take You To Tomato Town by adamgryu 2017-12-06T19:39:23Z

This is some Katamari Damacy level awesomeness!

Kill The Dragon by kromeboy 2017-12-05T17:01:26Z

That was hilarious.

Overloaded by yishalee 2017-12-10T12:07:04Z

The controls are annoying, but the game mechanics are great. If it was easier to dodge the ships this game would be a lot of fun.

Can't Save Them All! by Robert Newman 2017-12-09T01:25:30Z

The animations were hilarious. I loved how epic the ending was.

The controls need work, but everything else was pretty fun.

9 Lives by Alex Davies 2017-12-06T18:54:58Z

I liked the design of the dogs. The tennis balls were a nice touch.

It was really hard playing this with the keyboard. The controller worked, but the buttons were mapped to weird buttons. If this was fixed, I would have a much better time playing.

It would have been nice to toggle sprint too.

Was there music, because I couldn't hear anything? It might be better for your score if you opt out of sound.

Clean this mess ! by Diblow 2017-12-05T14:48:01Z

Nice atmosphere.

Picking up and dropping things made my hand cramp up though.

IDEA! by BetaNab99 2017-12-05T17:08:48Z

"A" couldn't jump if 10 naked ladies were calling to him lol.

Well done.

Carrie by joris17 2017-12-05T16:55:27Z

The quiz element was a clever feature. I enjoyed playing this.

Tide Horde by Sergey Chemodanov 2017-12-05T15:14:46Z

The art looks great.

It would have been nice to have a high score to keep track of how many orcs you killed.

After killing them for a couple minutes I eventually got bored since there was no sense of progression. Perhaps having them come in waves of progressing difficulty would be nice. This way there would be a goal to accomplish.

LD45 — Start with nothing

Star Smasher by kakarotsan 2019-10-09T15:44:58Z

@technsmile If only we had more time. lol

I might expand upon it after the competition is over.

The Choice of Life: Middle Ages by Xakkar 2019-10-08T04:34:51Z

I spent quite a bit time playing this! It reminds me of Reigns. Is there a win condition though? I end up dying no matter what I do.

Sword Of Nothing by Birdlay 2019-10-08T06:30:23Z

I could never defeat enemies before they got a hit on me. Very frustrating. Neat sword though.

All I Got For My Birthday Was This Terrible Curse by randomnine 2019-10-09T14:35:15Z

The longest I've played a game here so far. Very well done. It's too bad you couldn't save since some of the later gotchas made you have to replay the entire game again to get to certain point.

By the way, what engine did you use to make this?

Pandamonium by Maytch 2019-10-09T20:19:50Z

I found the camera to be a bit annoying since it was blocked often by other objects. If you use Cinemachine, you can add a component to the virtual camera that pulls the camera forward when the player is occluded.

Egg Farm Escape by Deacon 2019-10-08T06:21:39Z

Couldn't get past the first level...
