LD48 — Deeper and deeper

Rocket Philosophy by Cambryx 2021-04-27T16:33:50Z

this is a well made game, this would be a hit in mobile app stores :100:

plus the soundtrack is catchy, i really liked the soundtrack in particular :musical_note: would love to read a post on how you created the music :smiley:

Hunt For The Merchant Royal by CaramelCode 2021-05-03T13:48:29Z

got 1 billion dollars richer, if only in real life too :laughing: not sure if there was fish underwater, but i had just enough light to make it to bright light without getting eaten :sweat_smile: good concept! can see this getting extended to mobile

ChronorhC by NikorasuChan 2021-04-26T15:05:59Z

the soundtrack is catchy, would love a devlog on the music production :thumbsup:

ChronorhC by NikorasuChan 2021-04-26T16:00:25Z

@nikorasuchan TIL such a tool exists, will definitely try it out (and hopefully use it in the next ludum dare) thank you so much for also sharing your thought process in creating the jam! :bow:

Cool Dude Cave by ZachsButt 2021-04-26T14:38:12Z

Super fun concept! Quite hard. If this game's development continues further, I hope it becomes a mobile game too. This is more fun than most dungeon crawlers in the app stores :wink:

Deep Breath by Eduardo Scheffler 2021-04-28T12:52:42Z

cute voxel art! that was quite a dark end

SpinPlan by Fupi 2021-05-02T15:21:13Z

wow, just wow. art style, mechanics, and music were on-point! the physics is challenging and the eggo is as bouncy as a ping pong ball (until now still trying to get the hang of it :laughing: ), the music really seals the deal for this game, would love a devlog on how the melodies were composed :smile: hope this gets ported to mobile one day, one of my favorites so far :smiley:

you are chained to an egg and are falling down a pit by goblinkingmatt 2021-04-26T16:05:06Z

being chained to an egg and falling down a pit is reealllyy trippy, i think i won't sleep tonight

Search for the Undergem by FluffyGameDev 2021-04-26T15:57:34Z

dug quite deep in this game, it was fun creating a network of ladders. if the game get's further development after this ludum dare, it would be cool to turn the ladders into escalators/elevators that spring the player rapidly to the surface :wink:

Fetch Ball! by koalatte 2021-05-03T15:13:22Z

@emeraldboy44 thanks! means a lot that you bookmarked it :blush: glad you liked good boy doggo :smile:

Nice Fall by Nice Gear Games 2021-04-28T14:35:08Z

i really liked falling, it was satisfying to fall for long distances. the AI is tough :laughing: would love a devlog on how the AI was created :smiley:

Pirifurm DCleaner by emeraldboy44 2021-05-03T14:42:28Z

i like how this is a parody of actual software :rofl: the physics actually makes sense, though multiple collisions with a single trigger-happy virus is pretty brutal :sweat_smile: overall had a good laugh and managed to clear a few gigabytes :laughing: (thanks for also sharing the tools you used :smiley: )

Deep in the ocean by xicoizquierdo 2021-04-27T16:41:03Z

i like the undersea vibe, you nailed the graphics (cute website background image too)! the sound effects were quite loud, a bit surprising when in headphones with relatively high volumes. overall, had good fun dodging the cute sea critters :smiley:

Falling Bot by Phobos 2021-05-03T16:30:56Z

i loved the graphics, the shaders were on point. the controls were also quite comfortable too, the control over the thrusters felt just right. also managed to win :smile: would love to see a devlog on how the models, lighting, and shaders were made (and the tools used to create them!) :smiley: would love to see this game extended to mobile app stores one day :blush:

Gulp! by GoodGamesJames 2021-05-01T17:09:34Z

that was pretty bloody :sweat_smile: has surgery game vibes too!

LD50 — Delay the inevitable

Wizard's Chores by mmason 2022-04-19T13:35:16Z

it's refreshing to see a text-based story game, some combination of choices would blank out the UI at least in Firefox (not sure in Chrome)

had a good chuckle with a lot of the choices :laughing:

music is catchy :musical_score:

overall, nice one!

Hold Up Mom! by Ntimi 2022-04-18T08:11:25Z

evading angry parents, definitely felt the mood! didnt realize immediately that i could not move diagonally, though it was fine and controls felt like they made sense as the game went on

overall, it really caught the kid trying to appease strict parents vibe :laughing:

Color Cage by Apples_mmmmmmmm 2022-04-19T08:56:52Z

such a clean concept, the xylophone sound per ring is a clever touch, well done!

Large Number Collider by Shigor 2022-04-19T09:38:45Z

that was mesmerizing, the physics took some getting used to, but it made sense as the game went on, well done!

Grounded! by ajpl 2022-04-18T06:37:31Z

the party music fading out as the player goes outside is a nice touch

Age of Chips by MaiMai 2022-04-18T13:11:55Z

an RTS, wow that is ambitious and in such a short time! pacing of resource gathering is rather slower compared to what i remember from "mainstream" RTS games, but it seems to trade off with instant unit build and upgrades when resources are available

am really interested on how the pathfinding was implemented for multiple units :open_mouth:

overall great game!

Escape from Nowhere by lbrande 2022-04-18T06:48:37Z

game's mechanics and objectives are on-point, feels like a retro nintendo racing game, controls are challenging given the turns but they feel smooth as well, nice one!

Running Out of Time by Arthur Mairs 2022-04-19T07:07:28Z

had a good chuckle with the game over sequence :laughing: nice one!

Stick Basketball Arcade by koalatte 2022-04-19T12:34:44Z

Originally had a "center point" that was explicitly marked at the player's hands during development, in hindsight it may been better to keep/build on it rather than remove it (ooops), definitely a learning moment there!

Point taken and thanks so much for the insights :heart:

Please don't sleep! by Lana Ro 2022-04-18T06:54:34Z

graphics and music are adorable, the ludum dare logo beside the pc was a nice touch, perhaps the game could be scaled to fit smaller screens even in full screen (still needed to scroll though the game even with fullscreen in smaller browsers), but overall great concept and game!

Princess: Unwed by saintchristopher777 2022-04-19T13:53:58Z

fun concept and mechanics, definitely something worth building upon, the font of the letter being sent by the princess could be difficult to read at times, but it seems like it's by design to simulate handwriting

the documents around the courtroom add to the charm, though perhaps some kind of optional and "portable" docs for reducing some of the walking might be handy in the future after sacking a few suitors and getting a lot more familiar with the mechanics, like a quality-of-life enhancement of sorts

definitely liked the sleuthing/geo-locating of suitors :map:

overall it was a fun game!

Princia and the spiders by Castoor 2022-04-19T09:24:04Z

i like how the inevitable was a happy ending :heart: well done!

Trashy Towers by TinyWhaleCloud 2022-04-19T08:26:47Z

kinda like tetris, but with physics, that was fun (and funny!)

Bath Time by benjamm 2022-04-19T08:22:48Z

that background music is now my new.. Jam *crickets*

anyhows, liked the music, was this recorded with an actual guitar?

it's the vibes and theme of the game that makes this fun, looking forward to my next bath (or not lol) nice one!

Coolant! by iambaangkok 2022-04-19T09:42:54Z

those are among (if not) the most unique sound fx's i have encountered, had a good chuckle, well done!
