LD26 — Minimalism

SPector by Ace 2013-05-02T20:52:00

Fun music. Liked shapes on the background. Great codebase, I always had thing for component/messaging systems. Don't let them seduce you into writing OS, keep writing fun games! ;)

One Chance by spacechase0 2013-05-02T20:10:00

Cool little game. I especially liked "hit" sound, it so cute .)

_M_ by GranaDa 2013-05-01T13:46:00

Nice and minimalistic!

Trapped in Minimalism by eShredder 2013-04-30T14:59:00

Excellent game! Fun to play/harvest. Shooting is awesome. Bosses are tough, but not too tough .) Great cutscene and sounds.

Chameleon by Helco 2013-04-29T17:47:00

It displays white/black screen instead of the title screen and chameleon randomly rotates and doesn't shoot it's tongue(Win8/x64). Sad .( I really liked the music though.

Nano by psychopsam 2013-05-02T10:15:00

Cool game! Reminds me of Darwinia. Very cool stuff, but controls a little bit tough .)
Liked the sound and graphics.

Ad Astra Per Aspera by getRandomName() 2013-04-30T13:11:00

Same here... Sad, screenshot looks promising.

Pixel Storm by Spanfile 2013-04-29T18:49:00

It'hard to kill two guys in a row, since bullets get stuct in first .(
Absolutely loved character animation and sound!
Fun to play. Nice game!

SpeedJumper ! by Nakato 2013-04-30T14:04:00

Man, it's hard, even frustrating I'd say.
Good job on graphics and character trail.
But I died far too often, sometimes for no apparent reason.

moomieware by Catmoo 2013-05-01T20:14:00

Weird, but fun .) I liked "ohh" and "yee" best!

Pendulum by Yakka 2013-05-04T10:48:00

Nice and original!

Minirena by Sh1rogane 2013-04-30T18:35:00

Cool and fas-pacing game! Played a lot of rounds. It simple, yet hard, with good music and colors.

imy by Ditto 2013-05-01T11:04:00

Very good game! Liked music, and theme. Colors were quite harsh for me. Overall it was very fun and sad in a good way. Great job!

Make me one with everything! by Laksen 2013-05-17T18:49:00

Crazy in a good way! Crashed after the boss fight though.

mesh by nseward 2013-04-29T20:10:00

Wow! Great game! Interesting mechanics and idea with blind gears. Great job!

LD26 by Threef 2013-05-07T15:29:00

Hey, cool game! Liked the ambient rhythm and sounds. It's so cool how much can say simple gradient. Also loved the ending, music is great. Good job and perfect fit with the theme!

Pixemalism by boddiul 2013-04-29T16:40:00

Cool game! I enjoyed new mechanics and sound between levels. It's a shame it crashed halfway .(

Dream by Kyoutashan 2013-04-30T18:48:00

Surprisingly it was touching. I had fun. Nice small game, good effects.

Don't Hit The Core by TheSarcastic 2013-05-01T13:55:00

Nice idea and goof work. Sadly no win/lose conditions.

Less is More by Joror 2013-05-02T19:34:00

Nice atmosphere and idea.

Platonic Dot Solid by Prelucid 2013-05-17T18:38:00

Padam-tadam!

Tamawatchi by rykounanba 2013-05-02T20:56:00

Can't run, same as Perry...

One Word RPG by Clavus 2013-04-30T13:57:00

Sadly I had white squares in the places of moving characters and quite laggy movement (win8/x64). But slashing part was fun .) Also great sounds!

Desire by burtlo 2013-05-08T15:39:00

Simple, yet complicated. Cool graphics and music. I definetely liked the idea and implementation!

Simple Difficulties by Wet Heads 2013-05-05T13:52:00

Hey it was fun!

Way of the cuburai by comrad_gremlin 2013-04-29T17:00:00

Great game! Hilarious music! Movement feel is a bit lost, and upgrades not fast enough to my taste. Liked mechanics .)

VierEcken by YsenGrimm 2013-04-30T16:36:00

Great game! Simply, but fun and addictive. A bit hard, though. Nice work.

Minimalistic Minimization by rainblade studios 2013-04-29T19:33:00

Cool game. I especially like how one fragment is still can be controlled after death xD Very consistent and nice visual style. Running numbers add to the mood. And great music.

Minimal Ammo by T800 2013-04-30T18:59:00

Cool art and fun sounds! Great entry. But man it's hard.

Minimalismizer by Diamonde 2013-05-04T10:56:00

Nice graphics and sounds. Really enjoyed playing this one! Great job.

Bodyguards and Assassins by Hectate 2013-04-30T13:09:00

Nice idea and nice game. It's simple and fun. But I think there should be more bodyguards.

Listmamini by Titi_Alone 2013-04-29T16:15:00

Sound is quite annoying and grass sometimes moves around.
I didn't get the goal of the game.

Dark Black by Purplescape 2013-04-30T17:10:00

Cool! Space quest has returned! I really liked the plot and art. Dark Black is cool. Nice ending .)

Colors Pursuit by Nambew 2013-04-29T16:29:00

I liked the concept .) Nice small game, and third level is cool! Got abe's odyssey and blackthorne flashbacks .) More level's would be more fun!

Peacemaker by Jod 2013-05-02T11:02:00

Great game, I had fun playing it and sometimes it got me goose-bumps! Great job, it's a shame there's no music. Cool idea with eyes, loved it!

Earth Defender by Hellequin 2013-04-30T12:39:00

Nice game, with good graphics and sound. But screen is a bit too small to my taste, and ship's hitbox is too large. Good job, fun to play!

Total Viking Power by TheAwesomeProgrammer 2013-04-30T13:51:00

Fun! Good graphics and music. Sounds are hilarious! On the negative side hitboxes are quite too big and you can't chop trees!!! Overall - nice job!

Maxwell Rush by lanz 2013-05-07T15:53:00

Thank you all!
If you find it too hard, fell free to play post-compo version with mouse control.

Have fun!

Choose Defense (TD) by fogelvisch 2013-04-30T15:08:00

Fun art. Liked lasers. On the downside it's quite buggy.

EmotimCrawl by Tamik 2013-04-30T18:54:00

Cute emoticon!

Life Of the "J" by jancsiba5 2013-04-29T18:19:00

Suddenly health started to decrease and then I died .(
Before that it was fun! I liked big world, sword action and music. Didn't really get digging part.

MEGAMINIMAL by InfuriatedCoder 2013-04-29T15:52:00

Awesome! Liked red squares. Boop sounds at 1st level are great.
Level 3 is kinda hard though.
I like the approach of assembling PC.

MINIMALIST INVADERS FROM OUTER SPACE by muton 2013-04-30T17:49:00

Fun game, and very good art. Nice idea and great implementation.

Employment by Fabien Porée 2013-05-01T14:17:00

Interesting game. Concept is great and text and music and text is very nice. I like green wall color, it's pretty.

BatMinimalizer by Vaalen 2013-04-30T13:36:00

Was fun, but enemies and their projectiles is way to small for my poor eyesight .)

RGBCMY by ericlass 2013-04-29T18:10:00

Cool game, but too short. Well done though!

Ninja Cube by Hertzila 2013-04-29T19:26:00

I love this game! It's incredibly fun. Ninja animations and trail are perfect. Rocket trails and sparkles are cool. Sounds is good to (woosh-woosh!). The only thing I dislike is title screen.

Minimalist Dungeon Crawler by Cranky 2013-04-29T15:58:00

It's hard. I like Spectrum-ish graphics and sound. Very well done!

Beyond Sprites by c0r73x 2013-05-01T09:15:00

Win8/x64, can't run .(
"Failed to find any usable GLFWFBConfigs

Pursuit of Happiness by paranoiks 2013-04-29T18:42:00

Very cool. Great message and narrative. Music is great.

Darkness by LrdKzrth 2013-04-29T15:37:00

Win8/x64 works fine though. But no sound sadly.
Nice take on HUD.
Man, it's hard, can't get to the exit! .)

Babel by Merkoth 2013-04-29T16:07:00

I liked the twitchy letters on the title screen. Combat is somewhat random, I don't really get mechanics.

Title: Subtitle by Liz England 2013-05-02T20:24:00

Cool! I really liked the theme. On the negative side words were a bit harsh (aliased) which make playing not so comfortable. Otherwise great job, and absolute theme fit! .)

Mandala by MuffinTrap 2013-05-02T19:44:00

Yes, definitely need depth hints. Otherwise cool graphics and sound. I liked landscape and floating living figures, also loved how PC triangle gets distorted over time.

Against the Current by iambored2006 2013-04-29T17:03:00

Man, fifth level is hard! Hitbox is too big. Liked fun font!

MiniCrawl by Elemnir 2013-05-02T19:56:00

Cool crawl! Loved loot names and chess-style thinking. Also perfect theme fit .)

Pixel Dominoes by Pinkerator 2013-04-30T12:48:00

Was too large for my screen, so I couldn't see TAKE button and sometimes some of the dominoes.
Otherwise nice small game!

Hard Puzzle by scheurneus 2013-04-29T16:21:00

It fails from time to time with negative array index error.
Gameplay is fun and challenging though.

Simplicity by fishbrain 2013-04-29T15:41:00

Nice piece! Kinda short, though.

The Minimalizer by johnfn 2013-04-29T17:23:00

Man that's hard and fast! I like it .) Absolutely awesome soundtrack. But turrets sometimes spawn inside walls. And did I say it's hard? .)

Particles by Covenant 2013-04-29T17:57:00

Cool game. Loved particle dynamics. It's getting really hard in the later levels! Very fun to play! .)

Sriggy Moggful by orange08 2013-04-30T12:58:00

So sad. Great atmosphere. Very nice animations and overall graphics.

Theme Satisfactor by Pyrofoux 2013-05-07T15:41:00

Nice game. Absolutely loved comments!

Mondriaan by Corné Dorrestijn 2013-05-02T17:26:00

Addictive! Cool jumper .) A bit slow maybe.

Mr Potato assembly-line by nSun 2013-04-30T15:30:00

I lke it. When you don't move the mouse, it stops, lol .)

Essense by Jorjon 2013-05-03T09:20:00

Cool reflections and cloud-y atmosphere. Music really fits it.

Forest for the Tree by iximeow 2013-05-01T09:52:00

Sadly it crashes on my laptop too

But I liked the "reading source code" minigame. It's echoing my thougth on cognition and information processing.

Little Planet of Doom by 2A1S 2013-05-01T20:07:00

Fun little game! A bit too easy, because AI stops chasing you after you got far from them, but you can fire them from safety. Also great ending, I laughed! .)

Minimal Complexity by hydancer 2013-04-29T16:54:00

Very hard, I can't kill one cube! Liked weapon shortcuts in upgrade screen and cubes animation. Also great music!

Wither by Skoggy 2013-04-30T16:47:00

Win8/x64. Got ludum dare logo, then all titles up to prelude, then strange L-shape floats up to the top of the window, and then just gray screen.
Nice music though .)

Long Live the King by Dax 2013-05-02T18:09:00

Fun little RPG! Cool and tough.

Timothy's Adventure by FenrisWolf 2013-04-29T17:37:00

Nice theme and cool music! And of course mustache.
Loved swirly projectiles and particles!

SUSTAIN by Xion 2013-05-17T14:52:00

Absolutely great game! Sad that it hasn't many votes.

Matt and Raggie: the day after by dector 2013-05-08T15:34:00

Cool graphics and music! Really fun to play. There's so much effort put in opening and ending. Loved it. \m/

Trained Disaster by The Tophat Demon 2013-05-17T18:17:00

Fun game! It really got that nostalgic NES-y feel to it. Music and sound are very good.
