Minimize This! by CMaster 2013-04-29T09:21:00
It fits the theme well for obvious reasons, and you somewhat have to think when minimizing which is fun!
What I didn't like was the cooldown, I don't see how it's necessary.
Well done though!

Fun game! Sometimes it was hard to see where the "goalkeeper" was but that made the game a bit more interesting though! :)
Smooth graphics and music, good job.
HAha pretty cool! I got wet... :D
HAha pretty cool, got a little confused sometimes but after a few tries I figured some things out. Well done! :)
Nice little game! ^^ as mentioned really fits the theme!
Great entry, I like the graphics a lot and it really fits the theme! And it was quite challening but I like that :D
Cute game, it really fits the theme with the graphics and controls! :)
Well done sir, it definitely fits the theme perfectly. Pretty fun as well! ^^
Fun game! Great mood and controls! Although it reminds me a lot about boxhead... ;)
I must say this was really fun! I like the idea although honestly it's a lot about luck ;D Yeah round 6 was unbelievably hard haha I don't get how it's even possible.
Anyway great job!
Nice puzzle game you got there!
It took a while for me to understand how it worked (screw reading instructions) but when I did I realized the game required some wit, I like it! ;D
Haha cool game! Sometimes it felt like it didn't react when I clicked but that might be my mousepad acting out..! Good job! ^^
Neat game! Smooth controls and clean graphics with the theme in mind. The blur fit perfectly.
It was kind of difficult though, finding the rectangles shooting you. Anyway I like it! :D
I like the idea! And I guess the models represent the theme? :) And I didn't really understand how the ammo worked. Still good job! :D
Great game, even though it looks generic the controls make it pretty unique, well done guys! :)
That was a pretty neat game, followed the theme really well. Simple yet fun!
Entertaining litte game you got here, I expect a sequel/full version soon! xD
Nice graphics, really fitting! :D
Interesting game you got there! :) I like the idea and the theme is well represented!
For some critique I can say that I found the player and direction hard to distinguish, might be 'cause I'm somewhat colorblind, but still it made me not being able to relax. And to that point, the music wasn't as calming and helpful as it could've been, as people have said your sense of rythm didn't exactly come into play I feel.
Anyway great job and concept, keep it up! :D
Well done, fit's the theme in both controls and in destorying stuff haha.
Pretty cool! I like the idea, but the controls and camera made it difficult. Still really unique and new!
Haha fun game, reminds me of that game show!
I found it kinda difficult to maneuver fast enough, you had to be fast. But that's good, I like it! :)
Cute and interesting game! I liked the sounds haha.
Is it just me or do you actually shoot with X and jump with Z? ;P don't know if that's a typo.
Anyway, well made game, a lot of detail, I like it! :)
Intense! The story and the layout were really entertaining.
I almost cried.. No but seriously that was cool, I only got the girl to do something/help the girl, wish I could help more of them <3 Maybe I could just couldn't figure out how.
Great game dude! :)
Nice game! This is actually really well made for an LD, a lot of content and detail.
The only critique I can give is that it's kinda hard to know where you can go/should go. Got lost a few times, but I love it! :D
@lulzfish_4
Hmm that sucks. I'm not sure about this actually. I know that the computer I used to make the .exe is 64-bit so what you said might be an unfortunate truth :/
@TheSarcastic
Oh yeah? Hmm to know more about why I need some information about your OS, but you probably won't read this :( That's unfortunate though.
@All
Thanks for all the comments, both the positive and negative! I'll definitely remember to implement some of the things you've said next time.
And for those thinking it's too hard, deal with it >:) I'm gonna be honest it was my intent to make it frustrating! Love you all, peace!:D
Great game! I love the art style! :D The slide worked weird for me though.
Cute game, I like the graphics :)
Haha cute game. Really well done for a LD! :)
Haha even though it was really difficult and frustrating me and my friend had so much fun :D Great job!
Woah things just got deep, good job :D
Yes the collision is quite a problem but other than that it's pretty enjoyable! :D The music is great and it fits the theme well! :)
Loved it! Relaxing music and gameplay while still being fun and somewhat challening. Great job! :)
Haha that was unexpected ! That was one gentle body ;P
Fun game! ^^
Yeah same here crashed at the end god damnit. Just when we were getting into the good stuff! Good job though! :D
Wow this was neat! Although I found it very difficult^^
But the particles and graphics were really stunning! Great job!:)
This is an interesting point of view, I like it! The atmosphere was really well made by the music and such.
The only critique I have is that I found it hard to see the 3d and the sensitive mouse made it even harder :D Still well done!
Wow that was hilarious :D "Hipster down"
I really enjoy the screenshots but sadly I can't find any players :( Looks like a great job for LD anyway!
I REALLY liked this game! Very well made with a lot of content and detail. Cheers! :)
Peaceful cute "game"! ;D He reminds me of Abra from pokemon...just letting you know.
Okay.... haha pretty neat game, discodisco.
Haha I'm hooked! Although I think only using mousepad made it a lot more difficult! ^^
I'm gonna have to get it on my phone now! :D
The shortcuts for the arrows made it a lot easier when only having access to mousepad. Well done ^^
Really nice, I genuinely enjoyed this! :) Got to like level 6 or 7, then I got restless ;D
But honestly this was great!
Cool game, I liked the feel and atmosphere even though the sound got annoying pretty fast ;D
This was great, I love games like this where you actually have to be patient and pay attention! :D Love it!
Haha cute, the characters made me smile ;) I feel like the movement was too slow though, still well done! :=)
Beautiful world and music!
Love the concept! Great music and nice graphics. :)
Unfortunately it didn't run for me, I got to the Play and How to buttons, the How to worked fine but I pressed Play nothing happened, only a Back button showed up.
Please let me know why that might be( or when it's fixed), I'd like to try this, pictures look nice :)
I really enjoyed this game. Thank you! The gameplay is very good and I like the audio, nice design too. Great entry! :)
Very interesting! The exp and lvl meter made me shoot everything unfortunately, they were cute and didn't hurt me but I thought leveling was the purpose :( Then I read the description. Lovely entry.
Good job, liked the graphics. Felt pretty easy though and to me that became slow and kind of boring, I think upping difficulty and rate of color changes would make a lot of difference! Nice entry though! :)
Cool concept, too bad my story ended quickly :D
Funny entry, really well made. Interesting take on the theme and cute graphics! :)
Really challenging and fun! Reminds me of my game graphics wise haha, maybe even the same background color? :D Well done sir.
Great fun, challenging and requires focus! Love it, exactly what I went for :)
This was so funny, and well made. The question marked really helped out so that was important, and great dialogue! :)
@Simon@LD Ads? Are there ads? Hmm I have adblock, guess it must be the websitehoster I'm using? I even paused my adblock but still no ads. Anyone else?
Oh wow.. guess the site must get money somehow. Didn't realize.
@Simon@LD alright that's good well next time I'll use something different, Google Drive stopped working for hosting recently :(
@burgerdare yeah thanks for the thought, I considered that at start but then I just forgot ^^ It can be annoying when you have to get small and then quickly change for sure, I'll look into that!
@Majko It should if you wait long enough, but not sure why it's so slow and I get why you don't want to wait that long if there are ads. Otherwise Chrome and adblock are friends ;)
@Canyon The site works fine for me.
Let me know if this happens to more people.
@Victory Garden Thanks for the feedback, already fixed some of the things you mentioned. Not sure what to add audiovisually even though I agree, you have any ideas?
At first I named the name it has now, then I changed to "Curvy Couple", then back to this cause I had mobile stuff already done with this name.
@glbs Thanks. Yeah I was about 12 hours late and had to make time for some other things. If you have any ideas regarding variations then please let me know, I consider everything for future updates on mobile, it's soon out on iPhone too.
Nice game, although a bit slow for my taste. Great audio and cute graphics, blender rocks(Didn't use it myself this time though)!
Nice game with cute graphics and always fun gameplay! Well done!:)
Wow, very ambitious, I like it! Actual backstory and voices, that's great! I got survival time 6 minutes cause I went afk after I lost! ;) (the timer doesn't stop but you probably knew that ^^)
Great entry!
YES! This was awesome. One of the most fleshed out, solid games I've played for sure. Very brilliant entry.
YES! This was awesome. One of the most fleshed out, solid games I've played for sure. For the future maybe add different level layouts.
Really brilliant entry.
Solid entry, I love me some fighting games(great audio for that)! ;) The gameplay itself was interesting, but I like to know when my cooldowns are done so that would be a great change. And maybe variety as someone else said. Thank you for some variation in games though!
Love those colors (purple baby) and a platformer is always fun. The jumping is difficult to time I feel, on the edge he doesn't jump for me sometimes. Hope you continue to work on this, great start.
At first I was confused as to why was supposed to be challenging but the difficulty really ramped which is great! Definitely fun, adictive and the mood was set really well with graphics and audio. Solid entry!
Awesome game you got here! Lovely art and interesting concept! Tho I feel like the mechanics are a bit limiting when there are more than one gap, I want that perfect score! ;)
Great idea, interesting concept! Very ambitious of you. As some others have said it can get confusing, but when you figure stuff out it's really nice!
My Macbook can't handle this for some reason, too laggy. I'm gonna try it on my PC when I get home for sure! :)
This was great!! Very well made and loved audio (changing it was brilliant) and the graphics! :)
PS gave you a reply on my site
Nice one, I like the graphics and the gameplay is solid. Not a fan of this taxi driver, he should be happy with many passengers ;) Enjoyed the dialogue though! Well done.
Nice game! It was very challenging for me which is always great! :)
Nice game, great concept! Sweet audio and the game obviously fit the theme perfectly.
Great concept, solid entry. Improved graphics,audio and maybe adjusted jumping between colors, I would definitely believe in this as a mobile game!
This is so great! Great concept, nice graphics and fun variations between planets :) Awesome entry, I'd like to know if you do anything more with this!
Nice concept, felt pretty confusing though. Didn't know what was going on most of the time. But only 48 hours so. Nice 3d-graphics!
Awesome! Great concept, nice design and fitting audio. My critique would be the controls felt off (too fast acceleration or something). But that might've been intentional. Well done!:)
Solid entry, great use of this gameplay, perfect fit for the theme using same personality in different worlds and lovely music. Well done :)
Great ambitious entry! Would be cool if the planets changed with their progress somehow, depending on what was focused on it. Solid! :)
Nice game, lovely graphics. The enemies have great reflexes that's for sure, dashing is an important part :) Didn't truly get your take on the theme and music would be a great implementation in the future :)
I like it! Really fitting for the theme and cute graphics! :)
Really nice idea, the controls were great I felt and nice audio and graphics. Solid game! :)
Cool entry, great audio set the mood well. Never made it past the boosted jump though, tried to clear it before jumping too. But good job in 48hours! :)
This was great, hilarious dialogue! I like how you used the theme and you managed to set the mood really well. Nice entry!:)
As some have said it's hard to know where you can stand, but that can be part of the charm i. e. I wanna be the guy. This was pretty fun! The only thing I didn't like that much was the jumping sound. Well done otherwise! :)
Excellent entry! Very well done and awesome concept! Great job! :)
Really nice game! Connected worlds in an unique way, expected a lot of space but this was innovative! My packets got owned though, and then they were in the way :(
But fun! :)
Crashed my flashplayer too somehow. Please let me know if it gets fixed or how, I'd like to try it!:)
Cool game, lovely graphics and solid audio. When you are jumping and the story stopped you the horizontal velocity stopped and I didn't like jumping into the top of everything in the second world. Otherwise nice concept, hope you continue!
Brilliant concept! Looking forward to your polished version! :)
Hmm I mostly liked it, very unique and intersting take on the theme. But the audio freaked me out, once you made one mistake it sounded loud and annoying for the rest of the book? And when I made a mistake, I started from the beginning of the word but that made the time fly by. Overall it's a nice entry though! :)
Nice, funny entry! Enjoyed the humor and fitted the theme well!
Nice entry! Great concept, cute graphics and solid audio/gameplay. I feel like 48h limit really hurt it, you could make something really fleshed out with this idea! :) Well done!
Great game! Nice graphics and audio for sure, interesting take on the theme too. Well done! :)
Cool game. Sad that the physics are like that and I don't know why the graphics has dirt where it should only be alpha.
Haha what did I just watch. Not what I expected, pretty funny.
I managed to save 6 ducks! Then the first car came ;( Lovely graphics as usual, some blue cars would be great though!
I like it! Something I thought of is either make it more obvious which order to pick the colors in or make it not matter which one you pick first. Otherwise pretty fun! :)
@spacedoubt fixed.
@JJEvil Yeah haha that's fixed over here, thanks though! ;)
Pretty fun, hard which I like.
I enjoyed that :) Cute graphics and fitting audio. And actual entire game in one screen, well done!
@spacedoubt Ah cheers, fixed it ^^
Great submission, love it! Interesting concept, nice graphics and audio, though you don't want to get reviewed on that? A cute pudge wars! Wanted to be the gray one!:(
Nice entertaining game! :) Seems best on mobile, we're the same there. Cheers
Great entry, solid fun gameplay and cool concept :)
Sweet! Almost didn't get past the loading screen, still don't know how I did it. But then bubbles showed up and I got 1:12 ;) Solid entry
My name, need I say more. Love it! :)
Sick ghost, sick lighting, omg.
A boardgame on here, unique, I like it! :) Haven't tried it though so no real rating from me.. but kudos!
@monkeybit29
You don't! If you change to one, you have the other two on the left and right arrowkeys :)
But I get into the habbit of doing that as well, cheers!
Nice puzzles, got pretty challenging! Well done dog
The most funny take on the theme I've seen yet, and the gameplay is pretty engaging too, well done!
Nice idea, but I was doing the same thing over and over, pretty much the only thing to do, take guard, walk back, take guard walk back. I'd like more sneaking.
Cool entry though!
Wish the restart was more instant, other than that neat game with effective graphics, could see this fit well on mobile(probably your intention)!
Nice mechanics and level design! Was hard to find your way around, would like a map or more varying graphics. Well done!
Great entry! It's really fun and addicting, reminds me of Bubble Trouble :)
Looked at the post-compo, you're improving the graphics and effects, nice job, keep at it.
Really enjoyed this! Love the graphics, the gameplay is fun and original, very well made for a LD.
Some ambient music would be great for the setting and didn't quite get the AI, so those are the things I'd work on!
Funny entry! Nice idea, like the gameshows, and funny audio haha
I love me some hide and seek, but these clowns were no challenge.
Haha anyway nice entry, cute graphics and cool idea, more fluid collision would make it more enjoyable, getting stuck on fishes is never fun. And difficulty levels :)
Beautiful and fun with really fitting audio, well done!
Cool concept! Cute graphics and I like the shapeshift animation :) Some party music would've been sweet for sure, hope you can figure that out.
Cheers!
Love it! Great gameplay, stunning graphics and clear take on the theme. Well done.
Thankfully I found the diamond like first both levels, go horse(only part of the theme?:P)! Nice graphics!
Ah the flashes! Make it stop! Haha cool game, chaos on screen is always fun, probably a lot of interesting coding behind this :)
Challenging which I love, nice take on the theme too, well done!
Got to level 5! Cool game, but pretty sure it becomes impossible pretty soon after 4 unless extremely lucky.
You get blown up after berserker mode and then you most likely can't move (because you're so big).
Fun nontheless!:)
This is great! Fun and clever puzzles with a very interesting mechanic.
Shapeshifting back to the monkey when in tight spots made him fall through the wall/ground btw!
