LD37 — One room (9)

Decade by graebor 2017-01-03T01:14:00

I really like the concept. Unfortunately I became self-sustaining at around 30%, so it back a waiting game. Perhaps some sequence of disasters could make the game more challenging.

Ask Her by Sorak86 2016-12-26T00:10:00

Well... That ending...
...
Excellent story telling. Well done. 5 stars.

EscapeJam by Kalm004 2016-12-17T13:28:00

Funny game. The graphics are cute. It's nice to see a game which provides two languages. It let me try out my Spanish. Nice job.

Ants in the Kitchen by theCrancher 2016-12-17T13:11:00

I feel this game suffers from being too easy. I can often just stay in one place shooting with the pistol and the ants won't get me. I could go on forever without taking any damage.

I also found a few bugs (no pun intended):
* I couldn't figure out how to pick up weapons. I tried shift and space.
* Ants sometimes spawn on me (particularly in certain places it seemed).
* Space (switch weapon) resets the shooting interval even without extra weapons, and can be exploited to turn your pistol to an Uzi.

Well of Youth by Skosnowich 2016-12-17T12:49:00

Nice game. A little tough perhaps, and the luck involved in item drops made one play though considerably different to the others. Good quality work with the visuals and sounds.

Moving In by impbox 2016-12-15T20:40:00

The game is very well designed and balanced, and it's incredibly user friendly. The quality is great and the duration is substantial too. I like the subtle mess with your friend feature. Well done!

Room 2106-B by jotson 2016-12-15T19:40:00

Quick time events :P
I think this concept could really have been explored further. Unfortunately, no attachment has been built up around the characters, so I didn't experience much connection or loss.

Scary Monsters by candeeirostudio 2016-12-15T19:32:00

Nice game. I thought R was the appropriate choice for reload personally (it's intuitive and standard). When right up close to an enemy, my bullets seem to just go straight through them. It would also be nice to preempt reloading to switch weapon.

RoomOne by Geckoo1337 2016-12-15T18:35:00

The art style and mood are superb!

I like how the level is designed, but falling to my death could become frustrating. Perhaps just making the player respawn at the start position would be better, as the player only re-executes their previous method - after all, you can never trap yourself (which I think is good design).

LD34 — Two Button Controls / Growing (21)

Agent Hooker by Phoenix849 2016-01-04T23:54:00

Oh yeeeeaah.

Growing Sakura by ripatti 2015-12-18T21:39:00

This is a great puzzle game! I love it!

Greatest physics-based game that doesn't use real physics by KunoNoOni 2015-12-18T04:22:00

I got 11!!1!1!!11!1!

Better workout than Wii fit.

RUN For Your Life by bentglasstube 2015-12-17T20:04:00

So cute! AH! SEAL!

Buttons Rescue by Quique 2015-12-17T19:31:00

Holding both left and right should probably not make you move left. Cute game.

Parcube by Spartan Plume 2015-12-16T23:07:00

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! THIS GAME IS SO EVIL! Seriously, there needs to be checkpoints. This game is so HARD! But otherwise, it's a great game.

Growth by Alexander Ramsay-Baggs 2015-12-16T19:39:00

After 100 days of growing onions, I get 27668G. You must construct additional onions.

Interesting little sandbox, but it does get very repetitive. Perhaps there should be additional game elements that work against you, like seasons or pests.

Overall, well done. Good tutorial too!

Just Me and Only Me Against The World by adamgryu 2015-12-16T17:59:00

Great game. Really like the old CRT screen finish.

How I Rolled your Snowball: The Ultimate Simulator by vetch 2015-12-16T17:43:00

Good game, but something really needs to be done about those hit boxes, because they are too big for the images.

Super Snowball Roller Mayhem 3000 by arzi 2015-12-16T05:59:00

The word I'd use to describe this game is "cruel". Incredibly fun, but cruel. Job well done.

MotherCube (strategic puzzle) by Jacktheviper 2015-12-16T03:57:00

Why does the drop sound remind me of MSN messenger or something? :P

Nice concept. Might be good to have fleshed out a bit more.

QUACK! QUACK! Save the duck! by zebi24 2015-12-16T03:36:00

This was harder than I expected. You need to do differentiation on the fly! I like it!

Panball by gillenew 2015-12-15T19:45:00

It's hard to defeat the boss, but this will happily do as a replacement for Microsoft Windows' Pinball.

Catalyst by MoreRPG Team 2015-12-15T19:20:00

The end condition seems to be a bit broken, sometimes I seem to win when I should have lost. The colouring rules are also a bit hard to memorise. I like the idea though.

Carrot Stories by JaviCepa 2015-12-15T18:09:00

Awesome game! It's so adorable!!! Look at the little bunnies! *Gets to day 7, and all bunnies explode* D:

Saturn Valkyrie Dione by ItchyGames 2015-12-15T17:33:00

The theme is non existent, but it is a fun game.

Space War Z by Reinoso 2015-12-15T17:24:00

Right arrow seems to stop you, so that's kind three buttons - or maybe that's just a one key cheat code ;)

It would have been useful to have the instructions explain that enemies can take multiple hits.

Overall, good game. Well done.

Bad Doggie by Muel 2015-12-15T17:11:00

I really love the presentation! The cartoony animations are great, and that music really works well. However, the gameplay is a bit limited. Trash cans can be a bit sticky, and it would have been nice to have a score counter or something. Overall, good job.

AquaLution by vados 2015-12-14T18:45:00

I found the the controls quite weird - the periodically changing actions were confusing, and the general turning with forward/backward made it slightly frustrating. However, I liked atmosphere, and the cute little sprites.

2 button metroidvania by JaJ 2015-12-14T15:22:00

Excellent Game! Really hits that two button theme!

HUNGRY BEAST by bazz_boyy 2015-12-14T14:55:00

Guy throws clay pigeon at monster...
Monster looks at person angrily...
"Oh, Sh**!"
NOM!

Good game!

LD33 — You are the Monster (2)

Space Invadees by lanestp 2015-08-24T17:51:00

Couldn't get passed level 3 due to a bug, but seems like a great parody.

Space Defender by DrPumpkinz 2015-08-24T17:24:00

Splat... Splat... Splat... Splat... Splat...
I feel you're kinda at the mercy of the random number generator, as it's basically impossible to defend yourself if the tank shoots near you. But fun game. I would have voted up on humor for the sounds. :P

LD26 — Minimalism (5)

minobi by Pixelboy_85 2013-05-03T15:09:00

Great entry! Please make more levels!

Be A Minimalist by 2kah 2013-05-02T21:11:00

Nice touch with the piano!

SoO by Proch 2013-05-02T17:46:00

I think my machine was too powerful for this game. If I didn't add in a micro sleep in the code somewhere then it gave me hoards-of-grains-of-sand to play. Fortunately, I figured that out and realised this is a fun, good game.

Escape the Minimalism by klianc09 2013-04-30T20:54:00

Monochrome... Monochrome... AAHHH! MUSICAL RAINBOWS!!!
Nice platformer. The jelly fish parts were tricky.

There're Easier Ways by matheod 2013-04-30T20:21:00

I found the game pretty easy, but the last one had a wierd solution. Still, it was a fun short game.

You might be interested to know that your Linux version is just another Windows version (so it didn't work). Also, what they say about M and ; is true.

LD25 — You are the Villain (1)

Apocolypse Virus by Tom Leonardsson 2012-12-18T16:14:00

This game has no challenge aspect. There also needs to be more detail in the game. I'm not even sure what kind of environment the player's in.

LD22 — Alone (16)

Blue Moon by Cirrial 2011-12-25T22:21:00

Good game! I really liked the graphics, interesting gameplay.

Last breath by deepnight 2011-12-25T21:16:00

Fun little game. Very interesting gameplay, having to play against yourself. The graphics were great, and you've managed to capture the mood really well.

The Lonely Sphincter by crackerblocks 2011-12-25T20:38:00

Funny little game, not really that related to the theme though. It entertained me for a good while.

Stray Whisker by JigxorAndy 2011-12-22T15:12:00

So cute! Really good mood in this game. I love the pixelated graphics and the cat sounds are cute. Gameplay was a bit one-dimensional though, and told more of a story. Despite this a gave it a few plays and found the secret! Good job! I enjoyed this one!

Leave me alone! by gustavla 2011-12-21T16:33:00

A graphically attractive game. Audio would have greatly improved it, even just simple tone sounds. It was a bit tiresome having to kill about a thousand of those blue things to get a diamond weapon (mace?). But the game is very impressive for 48 hours, very well done!

Viking Cricket on the High Seas by twistedjoe 2011-12-20T22:43:00

The controls are quite difficult, but I was able to complete the game very quickly, didn't find a kitten though. The level could be a bit bigger and more complicated. But good looking game! Well done.

Alone in Red-F Labs by Sempai 2011-12-20T20:05:00

Fairly good game. It seemed to crash at some point, oh well. I think the enemies are too tough, making you need to respawn alot, but it's a game with fairly good graphics and could keep the player going a while. Good job!

The Lone Adventurer by harusame 2011-12-20T19:36:00

Good first time go! It was lacking a bit of a challenge. Audio was appropriate and there is good graphics. Well done.

Kitty Alone! by offwhitefox 2011-12-20T19:18:00

Nice little game. The cat is cute! Good graphics and sound.

Alone Game by HybridEidolon 2011-12-20T19:05:00

I think the graphics and sounds for the game were quite good, but the gameplay was lacking. It could have done with some more puzzle type challenges. But well done, some good effort must have gone into this game!

Robotic Friend by Wirtualnosc 2011-12-20T18:57:00

Excellent game! The best I've seen so far! Took a long time to play through, which is good, and the graphics and sounds were very attractive. Very well done.

Embers by NMcCoy 2011-12-20T17:56:00

Great game! Very strong atmosphere supported by good audio and graphics, I think it worked well with the theme. It wasn't the most fun game, but that isn't really the point here. Well done!

Va Unan by cobhc6 2011-12-20T17:28:00

Sorry that your computer broke :)
I had some nasty performance issues, and there are some bugs. The game didn't have much in terms of gameplay, but the graphics were good and it was true to the theme.

A.L.O.N.E.-A Lightweight Operating Nano Excavator. by BurgundyBadger 2011-12-20T16:56:00

Unfortunately I cannot play this game, as I have difficulty moving. The game looks good though

OH COME ON by Josh @ Dreamland 2011-12-20T16:49:00

I found it quite humorous at points, it was ok for gameplay, but doesn't particularly shout out at me. It had some good challenges in it.

Super Smash Lander Suicide Party, Bro? by Black Ships Fill the Sky 2011-12-20T15:45:00

Very visually attractive game! The destruction is entertaining! Controls are initially a bit confusing though. Well done.
