LD39 — Running out of Power

Winding Woods by tybantarnusa 2017-08-02T05:55:25Z

Nice creepy vibe. The comments helped me realize I could turn on and off with "f" which was helpful! Great job!

Save Atlantis by josefnpat 2017-08-02T04:09:34Z

Love that you made a tabletop card game :) Going to try and print out and play this.

Magic Chase by Lenon Kramer 2017-08-01T20:56:45Z

You're allowed to make bug fixes after the jam ends! It's in the rules :) But liked how old school cool this game felt nonetheless!

Apprentice by ThiefViolinist 2017-08-02T18:16:20Z

I felt the controls weren't super intuitive. But good job for a game jam game!

Breath by sundr0 2017-08-01T20:30:09Z

I really liked the world I was immersed in! The breathing sounds made me constantly aware of my state of panic, but I do agree it was eventually distracting. I did get stuck behind door frames or objects quite a bit which was annoying, but overall, love the visuals and gameplay!

Every Light Goes Out by sbeif 2017-08-01T20:43:45Z

Wow this is such a cool concept. Was pretty skeptical of letting it use my webcam but glad I did. I didn't manage to beat it, but great job on the visuals, novelty and the ambiance!

Extend that cord! by Zirrrus 2017-08-02T18:32:43Z

This game is just SO polished! Definitely gets quite hard and love that there's new mechanics introduced in the levels. A great balance of difficulty and strategy.

Wodewick, the grumpy monster by winniehell 2017-08-01T21:43:57Z

AHH!! The ending screen was so cute! And really great job to you two for putting this together in 12 hours!

Space email 4000 by Kosmo 2017-08-02T19:01:23Z

Definitely a lot harder than I initially thought. Pretty good game though! I do think it was a little hard since emails really started to pile up even in the beginning. Overall great job though :)

Doki Doki Magica by Sir Daniev 2017-08-02T05:58:49Z

I really liked the art for the witch! Wow and the boss was great. Great job :) Especially since you guys really only had 24 hours!

Baguette Hour by Xenation 2017-08-02T18:36:31Z

Never thought I'd fall to barrels. Great game but I wish there was sound! I feel like there's a lot of opportunity for the gameplay to be funnier with sound :) Good job overall!

Advanced Infiltration Management System by crass_sandwich 2017-08-01T21:31:00Z

Glad I read comments to figure out instructions first. I do think though that's a quick fix if you decide to polish it a bit. Amazing work for a compo!!! Gets pretty hard when those viruses start piling up on my servers!

Charge by ohmaigawd 2017-08-02T18:23:33Z

This was lovely! Both the visuals and the gameplay. It also feels polished despite being a LD game. Wonderful job!

Sunseeker by Surovyi 2017-08-02T18:45:52Z

Neat game, and quite well done for a LD game! I think controls can be improved on, but otherwise, solid gameplay. Great job!

Bribe or Die by LeonLaci 2017-08-02T18:56:10Z

Solid game! Liked seeing Bill in it :) I was confused at first because I thought I was supposed to side with the more evil looking characters so I kept losing. Turns out I'm supposed to bribe creatures who look nicer. Good job overall :)

HE BEAT HER. by Angela He 2017-08-02T22:41:57Z

Holy cow. I can't believe this was a Ludum Dare game and a compo entry at that. Amazing visuals. The gameplay reminded me a bit of Her Story which was one of my favourite narrative based games. Felt like a true detective playing this. Amazing work Angela!

Robo Nanny by kalyrical 2017-08-01T21:16:08Z

@chris-coe haha glad you figured it out! Yeah, really wish we had some time to make a "Controls" page or give a more thorough intro to the game. Thanks very much for playing!

Robo Nanny by kalyrical 2017-08-01T21:16:38Z

@yvanor Thank you very much for trying it out!

Robo Nanny by kalyrical 2017-08-01T21:23:13Z

@snowschu Yay so glad to hear you enjoyed it! Note re: text above the head. Definitely going to try making a quick update to this if possible :)

Robo Nanny by kalyrical 2017-08-02T17:04:22Z

@ciderwrath Ahhh yes, our UI can definitely use some work :'( One of my biggest regrets is how little time we could allocate to making the instructions more clear. Thanks very much for trying it out and for your kind words!

Robo Nanny by kalyrical 2017-08-02T17:05:13Z

@ronan13 Thanks for trying out the game and I'm glad you still managed to play it despite your keyboard! Really happy that it brought you feelings of nostalgia :)

Robo Nanny by kalyrical 2017-08-02T17:06:59Z

@lenon-kramer You having to take 3 tries definitely points out how the game needs clearer instructions, and I cannot agree more. Thanks for sticking through having to lose a few times before the mechanics were more clear! Really glad you loved it :D

Robo Nanny by kalyrical 2017-08-02T22:51:39Z

Thanks @surovyi, @hav24, @supremefist, @pedrowzee (sorry about the lack of instructions!), @russell-ng and @sophus-mit! Really means a lot that you guys tried out our game :)

BioTechnoWorld by Dioinecail 2017-08-01T20:47:27Z

Pretty funny :) And great job for a first time submission (it was also my first LD!)!

Flastronaut by Bill Zeng 2017-08-02T05:53:08Z

Nooooo!!! I've killed all hopes for life on this planet!! Great job :) An enjoyable game and I liked the challenge of having to be aware of my resources.

Power Loss by Pixel Programmer 2017-08-02T18:20:23Z

Wow really loving the visuals for this! The animations are well done. Great job finishing this during a game jam! Agree that music would've made it even more outstanding.

Jam Simulator by vizitas 2017-08-01T21:39:17Z

HAHA so meta! Pretty funny :) I was a little confused about what I could and couln't do. My house burnt down because I wasn't sure how to leave my computer to go check on it. Really liked the cofee sounds by the way!

Powerless: Trump Teaches Typing by RootPew 2017-08-02T19:08:47Z

Days survived: 98. Loved the concept and I definitely have not seen any other typing games for this LD! Great job :)

Turn 0n D@ Gohst Z0n€ by dubsol 2017-08-01T21:21:09Z

I'll have you know that after seeing people's comments, I purposely turned on my desktop so I can play this on Windows. It's short, but no regrets. If you keep up the quirkiness and humor and make it long, I can totally see myself playing through and enjoying the whole thing! Great job :)

Lichometer by Kade 2017-08-01T21:18:49Z

Really well made! One thing I do wish is that even when enemies (or "heroes" in this case? haha) go behind the lower walls, I'm able to see them. I know it goes semi-transparent when I walk by, but sometimes I got some nasty surprises not realizing there were foes there. Liked how the difficulty progressed too! Solid graphics!
