LD49 — Unstable

Cosmic Time-Out by nratcliff 2021-10-05T20:31:22Z

Way too hard! When holding a group of blocks, they seem to accelerate randomly. Still fun tho

Overclocked by Coda Highland 2021-10-05T20:46:08Z

I ignored the defragmenters for a while; when the temperature started rising, I tried standing still, which wasn't enough. After some cycles of this, it seems like the game was too damaged: whenever I started, it was lost before I could reach the defragmenter. After refreshing the page and playing as intended, I like the game! Nice amount of variety, the puzzles are manageable but stimulating

The Lunatic by Samuel Fine 2021-10-05T20:21:29Z

Almost abandoned it in the first few levels, which game the impression of being a game about plain waiting, but then the breaking platforms add a nice timing challenge, almost puzzly. Great game! Last level has a very fun (or unintended??) solution

TARANIS by Strange Nebula 2021-10-05T20:12:04Z

Platforming physics are a bit off, but other than that the game is really fun to play with a lot of well designed content

LD50 — Delay the inevitable

Sunny-Life Waste Disposal by joe40001 2022-04-18T18:12:01Z

Fun game! I specially liked the 5-second repair minigame and the crane's dramatic zoom. The intro is fun but it could use a skip button.

Shootzilla by Bernhard 2022-04-15T21:03:40Z

Fun graphics, nice enemy variety - it's missing some hook to make it unique, but works as a solid fps base

The Witch's Curse by clue 2022-04-18T18:57:57Z

Amazing game! Keeping track of everyone is pretty fun, and the graphics are super cute. My only nitpick is that the gameplay-relevant sounds could be accompanied by some visual icon (in a corner of the screen, so not giving a location clue) as an easy way to make the game more accessible. Overall, very enjoyable :D

Hold it! by island-jam-2-group-3 2022-04-15T09:42:17Z

Really fun! instant classic :)

The Death Delayer by JakobTheQuizGuy 2022-04-18T17:38:05Z

Great animation and gameplay - it just needs a bit more balancing to make sure that the inevitable is actually inevitable :P

Yet Another Tron by Paul-Maxime 2022-04-15T21:14:43Z

Very fun!! I played with random strangers and still felt like we were talking and teasing each other.

Ready... Set... SLOW!! by Birdwards 2022-04-18T17:43:29Z

Great idea & execution. As a fellow PICO-8 dev, I'm amazed by those 3D graphics :) Track could be a bit shorter, but overall a great game

Tartarus Panic by AceArcher 2022-04-15T20:48:12Z

Nice game! Love the variety & the references. As others have said, the endgame is unbalanced since caring for a single card is trivial, but in general it's a very solid game with an original theme and cool graphics.

The Death Pit Will Have You! by Uraffululz 2022-04-13T17:24:49Z

I like the snowballing effect of new panels falling holes, fun game

Deck the Zombies by PerfectSquare 2022-04-18T18:17:44Z

Needs more balance and variety, but works well as a base

Cat Fragmentator by Recher 2022-04-18T17:56:16Z

Fun unique game! I would have liked a "fast-forward" button, like the quick drop in tetris, since for the first few images i'm just waiting

The big ADIOS by Tobias Kiehnlein 2022-04-15T20:53:28Z

Interesting idea. Both the humans and the deaths seem to ignore the totems, are those bugged or just very subtle? Great graphics & polish

The Itsy Bitsy Jumper by sakura_magika 2022-04-15T21:08:11Z

Great game!

Chaos Vault by Zykra 2022-04-15T09:33:30Z

Really fun & original concept! My only complaint is that sometimes I died without knowing what had got me - this could be fixed by adding slow-mo death animation, for example. Would love to see the game improved in a post-jam version!

Demons don't breathe by Dreyer 2022-04-15T19:03:01Z

Intro was cool, but I don't want to see it before every single game. The new enemy on wave 5 was pretty cool, it could maybe be introduced earlier to hook the player.

Color Entropy by knexator 2022-04-21T14:16:44Z

@sakura-magika when clicking two squares, they get mixed. If one was very red and the other very orange, then many pixels will have to change sides for the result to be mixed. However, if the squares were already pretty mixed, then in average no pixels will change side (or rather, the number of pixels going one way is more or less the same as the number of pixels going the other way)

Vortex by bitnight 2022-04-18T17:47:55Z

Fun game, but the camera made me a bit motion sick

Dike Defender by Raptarr8 2022-04-18T18:03:41Z

Nice game! I liked the enemy variety and the colour palette. The slash attack is fun to do but seems that it would always be worse than simply moving the mouse to the end position? idk I might be using it incorrectly

Penguin Snoir by Sarah Alexa 2022-04-15T20:58:43Z

Cool game! It starts a bit unbalanced - even when staying still without any input, the player wont die since the life they lose is more or less regained by the enemy drops. Congrats on finishing it!

Doof Doof: Destroyer of Worlds by BurningApparatus 2022-04-15T09:50:21Z

Nice game, I love the idea of combining 2 different game styles in one

LD52 — Harvest

Anne & the Carrot Islands by bobo_oh 2023-01-13T15:45:12Z

Very nice puzzle design!

Bill, The ATMan by J0ye 2023-01-13T15:03:29Z

Took me too long to figure out that bill value changed with time, game made much more sense after that

LD53 — Delivery

Then Came A Stork by bonkibot 2023-10-12T15:40:03Z

Art/story/sound/polish are top notch, but the gameplay is waaay too slow

LD54 — Limited Space

Stingy Seating by stevenjmiller 2023-10-12T15:33:35Z

Excellent puzzle design, as always

QPCA-77B by Jimbly 2023-10-12T15:32:37Z

incredibly polished, nice work

Between the Layers by boddiul 2023-10-12T18:01:34Z

Very good! reminds me of the old GROW flash games

Fish 'n' Ships by hunttis 2023-10-12T15:27:37Z

Fun game! Would be nice to know the village's remaining health.

Shell Smash! by MartensCedric 2023-10-12T15:28:36Z

Good mix of mechanics, and nice work on using Bevy engine

Soffie's Tiny Garden by FTZ 2023-10-09T18:39:33Z

Excellent puzzle design!

Space LTD by finbobby123 2023-10-12T15:32:09Z

Very fun, great puzzle design!

Zombie Slayer 54 by Avi 2023-10-12T15:31:01Z

some lighting glitches, no penalty for shooting without interruption

Vestal's Path by SenatorMyth 2023-10-12T15:34:44Z

Very nice game, I loved the unexpected variety of items

Hazel & Hector by cassowary 2023-10-03T19:53:16Z

Wouldn't be Ludum Dare without a banger puzzle by cassowary :)

Just why? by Donitz 2023-10-03T16:56:31Z

Great concept and execution, I love how some elements are reused and the shark surprise. Always happy to see vanilla js games.

Cabbage World by nikor 2023-10-12T17:47:34Z

Camera movement is a bit jarring, would be nice to have it smoothly animate

Mechanizyn by Lincolnsalles 2023-10-12T15:37:40Z

jams are a great way to learn about scoping a game :P

Moneypit by Wouter52 2023-10-12T15:43:36Z

bug report: after changing floor, i spawned directly next to an enemy, losing life unfairly

CERT by tjm 2023-10-03T16:50:36Z

Excellent! I loved the flavor text in the dictionary

Zero Percent by Zykra 2023-10-12T15:25:27Z

Fun game! Took me a bit to understand but after that it went smoothly

Clear the space by Bobafett89 2023-10-09T15:24:42Z

Interesting game! Controls are a bit clunky, maybe having the current mode be visible on the player would help. The expansion mechanic is very good. I love the squash & stretch of the ball, very simple but effective.

Firebounded by tucan 2023-10-12T15:30:05Z

The optimal way is the most boring way to play (move slowly and only when the circle is big); music and art are very nice.

Quetzals & Ladders by jkyd 2023-10-12T15:35:51Z

Nice game, first level would be clearer if after an invalid move, the snake shaked, instead of the whole level

Limited Heart by Dennis Magnusson 2023-10-12T16:45:17Z

Very unique! nice puzzles too

Picky Plants by chybby 2023-10-04T17:25:17Z

Very fun, great variety. I specially like the design of level 11

Stretchmancer by Choo 2023-10-12T15:36:00Z

GOTY

Nebula Odyssey by AugustCoder 2023-10-12T17:53:55Z

Nice game, could have some extra complexity

Cozy World by AntonioTheReis 2023-10-12T20:26:51Z

pleasant experience. On fullscreen web, the panning is a bit annoying, since it gets in the way of picking seeds.

Beach Brawl by BalimaarTheBassFish 2023-10-12T18:04:56Z

Fun game! Spamming the mouse is a good strategy.

invenStory by Roroto Sic 2023-10-09T15:36:48Z

I didn´t realize that the 1x1 tiles could be combined into bigger items on my first playthrough

RunnersAtSpaceInLimitedSpaceY by Igor Morgun 2023-10-12T15:46:21Z

Lacks innovation

Maxwell's Demon by TPace 2023-10-11T20:38:31Z

Agree, the 3d is unnecesary

Sheep Birder by ellaris 2023-10-12T15:38:36Z

Very unique, I still don't know if one can "get good" at this game or not :P

Night's Bastion by Sevadusk 2023-10-12T20:32:02Z

The lack of icons makes it hard to play being colorblind :(

Packed Blobs by PowerOfSin 2023-10-09T15:32:04Z

Fun game! My only feedback would be that the direction selection happened directly where the blobs are; it would make it clear that it´s a limited range, and it would mean less jumping around the screen.

Clearing space by Sevansevan 2023-10-03T16:51:12Z

Solid PuzzleScript game, great puzzle design

LD56 — Tiny Creatures

Hare Rescue by FTZ 2024-10-10T15:22:16Z

Cool game! Almost gave up on it since i assumed it was badly tutorialized, but then i saw the description and saw that figuring out the secrets was the point. I got two out of three bunnies; for the top right one, I assume the solution is to (spoiler using rot13) obhapr gur zhfuebbz cebwrpgvyrf ba n orrgyr gb znxr gur pbeare, but it was too unforgiving to try to get that working, each try took a lot of time.

Tiny Mushy Froggies by BitLuderRb7804Fr 2024-10-08T19:58:50Z

Simple but fun!

Tiny Farm by D.d 2024-10-11T18:12:01Z

Growing the food takes too long, compared to how chaotic the chicken is. The player has almost no control over the game.

Tiny Farm by D.d 2024-10-12T08:21:00Z

ahh i had not noticed that, it makes more sense now, and it is more fun (since the player has to juggle an extra activity). It's not mentioned in the tutorial!

Quest for Rain by spacecadet 2024-10-10T20:25:15Z

I like the mood & gameplay, but I wish the player was slower than the humans, to force it to be more strategic.

In this level, i don't know if going through here is a bug or a feature: game.png (before finding that hole, i assumed the level was about getting the human out of the corridor by tricking them into following you, which would have been interesting but I couldn't get working)

Become A Hundred Thousandaire Or Have Fun Trying by AdamG 2024-10-11T18:20:51Z

Haha, very fun, with max upgrades it looks buggy but in a good way

NebuLeet Troopers by quasilyte 2024-10-08T20:14:31Z

It took me a while to beat the first level but the game was fun once i understood it. My only complaint would be that it feels unfair to pick the first card blindly, but i guess that's part of the depth of the game.

The drunk bassist of Hamelin by Fataljg 2024-10-07T21:11:49Z

Haha, i love it, the voice, the intro, the messages, the fun mechanics! 11/10 in mood

Whiskers In The Dark by Mahobear8 2024-10-11T18:16:06Z

Good use of AI art ;)

Child Of Entropy (accidental second upload) by Geekazodium 2024-10-10T15:34:48Z

Very interesting! I'm not sure if this is a game for humans, since we can't easily predict how a game of life pattern will behave, but it is a cool game nonetheless.

Carbs vs Protein: A Scrote Jenkins Story by Tyler Whitehead 2024-10-12T10:42:21Z

fun

Brood Defense by franklyn01 2024-10-07T20:57:12Z

Not sure if a it's a bug or a feature, but by starting a fight & retreating repeatedly, you can get infinite vouchers

MindControl by Righteousz 2024-10-07T20:58:05Z

The itch page is set to private, we can't see the game

Koi by A Priori 2024-10-12T10:02:16Z

I love it!!

Ants War by Danikmiks 2024-10-07T21:00:54Z

The core game is fun & the frog death sprite is top notch, but i would like some more mechanics to keep it from being repetitive
