LD19 — Discovery

The Legend of Akata by philomory 2010-12-22T06:24:00

I was impressed with how much was done (with the time constraint) The combat was a bit odd, and somewhat frustrating though. Overall it was pretty good, although a bit redundant. Cheers.

The portraits are very neat! Enjoyed it a lot. Nice story, nice art, nice theme correlation. Noice! [=

Nice potential!! Was surprisingly entertaining.

Wouldn't run =[

Purgatory Area by ToadieTechnika 2010-12-22T06:18:00

Interesting. The controls were very weird at first, but i like the new approach. I found it quite interesting that I had to remaster a basic movement in gaming.

Get Out by dsv101 2011-01-09T04:35:00

Guy looks like Karoshi character xD. Pretty fun/frustrating :P. Good for a first shot!

LD19 Planets by mjau 2010-12-22T06:29:00

Love the models! They look very nice; however, I can't really call this a game. I can see these being used in a beautiful game though. Pretty neat.

City State: Inspired Destiny by quin 2011-01-09T04:48:00

pretty cool! Loved the philosoraptor! xD I caught on pretty quick, although i'm not too fond of games like this. Good job though.

Maze of Towers by kurtwaldowski 2010-12-23T21:37:00

Thanks! I was practically dead at the point of implementing the directions, and I apologize. The K is hard to read and the WASD should be the arrow keys! Glad you figured it out though :P

The Jelly Caves by Darkhogg 2011-01-09T04:41:00

Wow pretty fun! A bit repetitive, and I felt it was quite easy. Damn blue Jellys. Gotta snipe those a$$ holes.

Glassbox by hcs 2010-12-22T06:32:00

I did play for quite a bit; until I decided that it wasn't me messing up! Ha ha :P. The game was pretty fun, I just couldn't get why sometimes I died and why other times I didn't.

Juxtapose by Daniel X. Moore 2010-12-22T06:37:00

Pretty cool idea. I was compelled to bust out a pad and pen and log the combinations. Neat; some graphical effects could have greatly increased the experience. However, time was of the essence :P

Coffee Forever by Jake Birkett 2011-01-09T05:10:00

"I need a cup of coffeeeeeee"
"YUM"
Hahah loved it.

.WormFood. by Epskampie 2011-01-09T04:55:00

Awesome intro, awesome blend of mechanics. Was fun! Didn't quite see the theme correlation though. Great job!!

Light Source by flashkick 2010-12-22T06:39:00

Wow really neat concept. I liked it a lot! It was amazing to me how hard it was to mentally note where the boundaries were just seconds after they disappeared! Sometimes I would creep around and activate a flash bulb and see myself just a few pixels away from death xD

Forever Cave by Redbone 2011-01-09T04:31:00

It was pretty fun; I just felt like I was making no progress. This may be due to the lack of fluctuation in difficulty. Anyways, nice start!

LD20 — It's Dangerous to Go Alone! Take This!

Eminence by kurtwaldowski 2011-05-02T19:06:00

Thanks for playing! ^_^

Yea, I totally agree: there is way too much going on. This needs to be tweaked a bunch and a wonderful UI would help.

One thing I did wrong was going in the direction of making the planets have abilities (even though that's one of my favorite parts) it added way to much to know/do to the game and ruined the simplicity of just simply multitasking and avoiding. (as you said)

Hopefully I can fix it up; I feel like it has good potential.

Eminence by kurtwaldowski 2011-05-04T18:00:00

Hahah you probably don't "just really suck" :P It definetly does need some refinement. Im going to try and tweak it, fix it up, and make it much more playable post competition. Ill let you know when i do =] Thanks for the intrest.

Eminence by kurtwaldowski 2011-05-07T05:23:00

@Chrisp

Wow man thanks, great insight and advice; your dead on.
