LD40 — The more you have, the worse it is

FriendSpace by HitchH1k3r 2017-12-11T18:00:57Z

At Year 11, was still swimming in money with alot of my friends loving me, my strat was : always buying the cheapest presents possible. I had some times waiting for the right price to appear, and bought everytime all the bonuses possible.

I was getting a little boried by the infinite list of presents (I didn't want to finish a year without getting to 0 $ ) , so I was thinking about quitting, but then I saw tere was an ending. So I tryharded : and honestly, the 2 last years were a real struggle, as an factory worker simulator, I didn't even looked at the price of the gift.

So here's my score : https://gyazo.com/f3e9e9bb5708d597a698aedba82ec2d3

For a jam agme, it's really really good. It makes you wanna play more, and more, the graphics and camera are a real good idea, it respects the theme, the controls are really intuitive and you can quickly become efficient, no, you did really well, you deserve full points on alot of things.

But as a game alone, I think that the end is maybe a little far, as I was really suffering while rageclicking to add friends, sell all presents, but everything, to see the endscreen. Will not spoil about it tho, so other people too can work to see it.

Good job.

Edit : goddammit I didn't put my ludum username, I won't even be in the highscore after all this endeavor

XenoNanny by icxon 2017-12-08T23:31:43Z

Really... This game's gorgeous. I don't know how much can I sya more : The ffects, the music, the graphs, the level design... They're good ! Even great ! So, yeah, good job !

One Button Hero by Taldius 2017-12-06T23:26:14Z

Very clever use of the theme, for an interesting and original usage ! Much nice ! Sadly, i think your game have alot of great things on it, but (that's my personal thought) it gets a little spoiled by the non permissive enough and slippery movement, making it very hard since the grab item , even if I was tryharding and not mongolizing, trying different combinations ! Overall, super concept, and very nice graphs. The music is pretty swell too.

Guy is late for school by phi 2017-12-04T19:50:30Z

Pretty funny, the art's clean and efficient, the concept much original. Very noice !

(+ you said cacti at the end)

Paw for Cream by Ango 2017-12-11T16:54:50Z

1187 as salary. The game's not bad, a good potential with the physics of the ice cream, and an interesting balance between the loss and quantity of ice cream.Maybe the gameplay would feels betetr with more dynmic tho ! Ithink the theme was respected.

Health Hazard by PeculiarCarrot 2017-12-04T18:44:04Z

Quite noice ! The feedback on the square, the little mario-like jump noises, the physics of the balls... Those are really good ! You say you're new to Unity but you should check my game to see what's the difference between good news and bad news :P

Else, about the game, I really liked the chiptunes, and the sound design in general : It's neat that you got an option menu to put the sounds effects lower. I'm just a little disappointed in the general rythm, it's personal tastes but I prefer when things are even more nervous, even if the game has a good difficulty raise :) Nice and efficient !

Bum Bag Bangin' by DuzzOnDrums 2017-12-06T17:19:42Z

Clean, juicy, a great game overall ! Gg for achieving this in a jam !

Prinsen Gulden by King Kujito 2017-12-05T01:59:37Z

Very nice ! The main character is well drawn, it looks a little bit static because of the animation frames but that's the cost of making one complex manga-style character. The game itself works pretty well, and I was very surprised when I saw the level changing in live in front of me, that's really well made !

The music is very nice too (if you composed it during the jam, a whole lotta kudos; it sounds swell af) , and the blub enemies are funny (but that's maybe because i love every typeof blubs).

One little thing that makes me sad is the time during which you respawn, maybe the death isn't juicy enough, or it's too long, but that's a floating moment during a game which could have been nervous and tactical at the same time.

Wall jumps were cool tho. Nice game overall !

Critters Inc. by stefenism 2017-12-06T22:29:39Z

Nice ideas, good mechanics, really good graphics,and it gets addictive so that means that works. GMaybe the movement could be a little faster, but noice overall

Headstuck by fullmontis 2017-12-05T00:49:53Z

I apparently found love, first try rank S with achievements "talk about the traffic then get married)

Really liked the concept, it lacked maybe 2-3 things like an ambient music (which could change during the different phases) , or more choices, but that use time to make this, and we're in a jam. So, gg for what you gave, it's nice and interesting. I wanted more choices, like the opportunity to say "I love your breasts" while she declare her love, but hey, that's just because i'm terribly childish. When she looks worried she's a little scary tho, i wondered a moment if the game weren't going to turn into drama or horror D:

Anyway, alot of little things coulda have been ameliorated to be really awesome, but there's a lotta work there for a jam, and that's pretty original. I liked it alot ! (I suggest to you people to listen to Hatoful Boyfriend's OST while playing this, so you'll be in mood)

Spacelitch by Flaterectomy 2017-12-08T01:20:03Z

Ok, first of all, the pixel-art is gorgeous. It's a really nice work for a jam (and the dog's cute indeed).

It's very funny that this doggo's the main character, with all those little dialogue lines doing a good job, being nearly everytime funny. The bouncing bullet thing made the game challenging soon enough, and dynamic, and I like that alot. Plus, you did a good job on the level design.

The theme's well respected too : I was some time in a real bullet hell, and the more they were, the worse it was. But that's because i'm a dork who can't run away from his own bullets.

And finally, the music's really catchy.

So, I guess i've covered it all : and it's all real good. You deserve the rate i'll give you, mate ;)

Anxiety by BBrown 2017-12-06T00:43:03Z

Okay !

So I downloaded and launched the game without reading too much about it, like I usually do, to keep the surprise. Well, it has surprised me for sure !

The ambiance is very well made. It's the first game of the jam that has afraightened me, the anxiety part, leveling with the obscurity and the running works well.

This great effect is alot based on the sound design, so that's a little sad that you could'nt make your own sounds effects during the jam. But the audio still does a great atmosphere.

For the gameplay, I didn't know what to do, so I wandered along the corridors, seeing it was like a maze, and got surprised at the first big sounds in the dark (wil not spoil what happens when you're too anxious, as the surprise plays a lot on th fear and the immersion). And because i didn't read, i didn't know that there were no goals, or end ! So I wandered into the maze along the walls, and... It deserved your game's cause. Why ? Because I was lost, couldn't find my way, I had the fear to be in a game that couldn't be finished, or worse, of not being able to escape from a mere maze. And so, the player's anxiety roze with the character's anxiety.

So, I don't know : the atmosphere is really good, the controls maybe a little too sloppy, even if that's more realistic it were maybe slightly too few maniability.. And the audio, especially with a surround headsetlike mine, works a lot. So, good job ! But maybe, because you used premade assets, the game could have suffered one more touch of originality, homemade thing ! Still good tho !

RE-SANTA by Thygrrr 2017-12-06T12:40:34Z

Ok, so the game's :

-Graphically really interesting, it works a lot and is readable. -Dialogues are funny, the new year's phrases are much cool -Have an interesting concept, needing memory and good gestion : Maybe a little repetitive, but it's the concept, and honestly that was covered by the funny reactions I had when I did shit

Overall, a really nice performance, the best of the jam's Christmas-themed games I played for the moment. Full points on art, a real good idea !

Famous Knight by Lucas Ferrantelli 2017-12-07T21:07:56Z

Awesome entry. Still not enough chickens tho : but definitely full points on graphics... And maybe even the rest.

CalligraTree by Roaring Cat Games 2017-12-08T01:25:13Z

It is chill indeed. Remind me a little of what we could find on website like theuselessweb (not a critic, it truly have a calm and artistic feels). Maybe more a toy than a game, but that's my point of view. Overall, good job.

Beer O' Clock by krammetje 2017-12-05T01:39:08Z

Ahhhh, at last, another game in which your goal is to get wasted !

So, we have here a happy blonddude-molesting game, in which you have to get drunk to get stronger and live longer, as it's in real life. I really liked the effect on the music and the screen when you drink, and the fact that the game is composed of sweet 2d animations ; but it's kinda sad that sometimes, the blond dude hitbox seem to not work, and as my fists go through him without any harm he annihilates me. It's a little late, and there's much work behind this, but it coulda have used a little more balancing maybe ! Cool game, hard but still cool !

Worth Your Weight In Gold by UncleChris 2017-12-04T19:07:47Z

Okay, let's do this :

-I found the graphics much funny because of their naivety, the shrek has got me going -the voice on the tutorials were really fun, sad that they were not there during th game -the core gameplay is original, and pretty neat i must say. Sad that the graphics didn't followed and that the principal music gave me a headache, but honestly it is well-thinked. Noice gaem :)

(and the theme's well respected)

The Harsh Life of Terry the Homeless Dude by lautregars 2017-12-04T17:36:48Z

Shit ! I forgot to indicate that the rain gutters were the sole y-axis obstacle, to force players to jump on lamps treets, then rooftops, use double jump, edge dash and all that stuff to jump higher. Thank you for reminding me this !

The Harsh Life of Terry the Homeless Dude by lautregars 2017-12-06T00:02:26Z

@zeriver Thank fou for the feedback, there is already a highscore feature but effectively it's on local, maybe I could tell what's the biggest score ever done in the page presentation ? (It's 554 000, by myself, while I was showing how to edge dash and easily bypass the obstacles to a friend of mine :P)

The Harsh Life of Terry the Homeless Dude by lautregars 2017-12-06T21:52:15Z

@gwinnell Doing a web build now will necessit alot of rework on the code itself, so I don't know if it's very fair since it's a jam... But I think I could do a Mac version to download ! I'll check this out and tell you ! ;)

The Harsh Life of Terry the Homeless Dude by lautregars 2017-12-06T22:13:08Z

@gwinnell Ok, made a Mac version, uploaded the .zip on itch.io . Could you tell me if this works please ? :)

The Harsh Life of Terry the Homeless Dude by lautregars 2017-12-06T22:53:20Z

@gwinnell Noice ! Remember to lay me a feedback if you have the time to write, even if it's just "Noice" or "cringggggge" :P

The Harsh Life of Terry the Homeless Dude by lautregars 2017-12-06T23:02:44Z

@gwinnell Well if you like it that's the principal, absurd is in the intentions, can't play a homeless with superpowers when he smokes weed every day :P The music that kicks in at ~10 000 score and the one at ~100 000 were made by converting the original song to a midi file, reworking it a little, get it through filters on GXSCC and then remork i again on Audacity for a more dynamic sound. The original music is a famous eurobeat song named Night On Fire, so as I didn't really composed the original music (just chiptuned it) I putted in only for players who achieve a certain score. Same goes for the one at 100 000 !

The Harsh Life of Terry the Homeless Dude by lautregars 2017-12-06T23:28:21Z

@chong-lee Maybe should I indicate somewhere it's runner game, that the goal is to score, or stuff like that ? Would have it helped you if it was written on the ld jam page? (asking that so I can get people to less be confused) Thanks for the feedback anyway :D

The Harsh Life of Terry the Homeless Dude by lautregars 2017-12-07T01:32:35Z

@ghostlygurustudios Ah ah, gg, few people attempted to do this :P Send me a screen next time, you'll get credited !

@aaforcebox Yeah, absically to respect the theme I made that all bonus brings you something good at the moment, but get you in a worse situation later on. I think i'll added that to controls, and i'm a little reticent about too much modifying the ui now (the jam's finished, that's why i don't correct major bugs like the fellout of map thing and the road-traversing jump if you jump high enough then staypressed on S to fall super fast) , but maybe i could do a full description of the different drawbacks and stuff in the jam's game page ?

And no need to thanks, I like giving feedbacks ;)

The Harsh Life of Terry the Homeless Dude by lautregars 2017-12-07T01:45:24Z

@sorlok Yeah, that's why is hould include it : every item has a drawback effect, making your situation, and the physical situation of terry worse when you take them... But you have to take them to keep going (that's a bit of a denounciation of the dependant hell, isn't it ? Taking drugs to forget you're taking drugs... :P )

The Hunger give you more life when it's over 75, but drains life if it's under 75, the more it's low the more it drains life.

eating rubbish will give you hunger points, permitting you to survive a little longer, but make your character sick, and drain your hunger faster, and irremediably affects the speed at which your life is going down.

the dark blub causes you 50 life points damage, but gives you a lotta score and will slow down the cops a little.

The weed will make you jump higher, gives you 50 life, but you'll be a little slower, more easily hungry, and the cops gains a little bid speed.

The green shot make you go faster, jump higher, but make the cops go a little faster and can favorize your sickness, and life drawing.

The barbecue gives you great effects : It heals yourself immediatly some HP, fills your hunger to 100, and cures a little the sickness, making the life go down a little bit slower. But because you're ruining the only good citizens's afternoon, the cops gains much speed.

All these things cumulates, making terry puking on himself while full drugged, and even only gameplay-styled it will bring your death closer, but you need them to go forward : it plays on a balance between the do and the don't, but at the end Terry dies or get cuffed. His life's harsh after all ! :D Thanks for the feedback anyway mate !

The Harsh Life of Terry the Homeless Dude by lautregars 2017-12-09T15:33:26Z

@all thos elast comments : Thanks you so much for the feedback ! It makes me very happy that my game pleased you : I was worried that I done a much too little thing at the end of the jam but now, i'm a little relieved. I hope I'll don't score too bad : And i'm honored by those last two comments, especially because I liked your games alot guys ! Keep up the good work too !

The Harsh Life of Terry the Homeless Dude by lautregars 2017-12-14T14:53:21Z

@piscythe Considerate you won the game. If it wasn't a compo maybe I coulda have more balanced the game and done more secrets and elements for people liek you doing good score, but I was short on time.

But really, congrats ! You're like the master of the hobos, and World Champion of The Harsh Life of Terry. You can add that to your CV :D (if it weren't forbidden, i would add your name with a terry and a golden cup to the main menu screen. Is that conseidered as a bug-fixing ?)

Close Friends by skippuku 2017-12-06T23:44:17Z

Ok mate :

Your game is purely astonishing for a jam game. it is really polished as heck, the graphic style is so clean ! It remings me a little of Game Dev Story, but it's a jam game , and hell if it's an achievement ! There is a bunch of funny dialogue lines, and different npc's , honestly, the game's great. Not much to say : Congrats. I suggest you to start rating a whole lotta games out there, I swear it works ! And like you said in your post above, add somegifs or screenshots, and a nice cover to your game, it's graphically very appealing and i promise you you'll have a ton of plays and positive feedbacks. good job !

Super Ploogy Rescue by 100th_Coin 2017-12-08T23:23:57Z

Very cute and funny ! Deserve more votes, really.

Aquariumus - Too Many Fishes ! by GoZz 2017-12-06T22:16:59Z

Sweeeeeet graphics, really cleaned, polished and all, gg ! Sound goes pretty well too, the music made me smile :) (The reproduction icon too but that's because i'm a child)

+ holded 12 days, am a fish papa :P

Flirt the(m)all by themarioga 2017-12-06T12:02:52Z

Street harassment simulator/10

More seriously, you can choose between two charmismatic characters, seduce other funny-looking characters, with some nice graphs for a jam and funny backgrounds (at laughed at the cinema). Maybe a little repetitive, a sprint option woukd have been cool, but that's a nice little game !

Super Consumerism Sim 2K17: GOTY Edition by EX3D0 2017-12-09T15:36:37Z

A well balanced game, into graphics, musics, and gameplay. Maybe some of the sound effects could be lowered a little, but it's a compo game and I understand how hard it is to make everything fit and works in 48h. So good job, compo fella !

Edit : It's maybe not taht important but if you clicked the option "Downloadable free game" on itch io ,I think you'll get more downloads. That's because i'm a lazy fuck but I can be easily demotivated by those kind of things, even if it's 2 clicks :P

Boomstick Leaper by pataya 2017-12-04T18:48:57Z

Juicy af, no need to say more (quite honestly)

Tower of Mana by Pedro Henrique Cesar 2017-12-09T00:55:36Z

Very nice concept, nice art, nice music loop, lotta good things, but boy, it's really hard ! And the afct that I do not own a WZASD keyboard didn't helped for sure, I tryharded but kept getting stuck at phase 2.

Great game overall, sadly could'nt see more of it.

Chicken Tender by misterstripey 2017-12-06T01:02:01Z

Ok, so I tested it and damn, it was funny !

The gameplay is a slightly bit repetitive maybe, but that's the concept of the game... And the NPC were honestly so funny-looking (I personnally liked alot the idea to put the dialog in front of the toolbox, i'm adept to such troll) that it broke the routine.

On my first run, I didn't know that saying 'no, bruh' to the frog would lend me to a losig state, so like everytime when I have a choice i said no and then my chicken wasnt doing anything, not even laying eggs. I didn't know it was meant to make eggs spawn, so i just tried things, and rageclicked with the poo tool on the chick to make her suffer and, i was not disappointed, as I losed with a game over screen that made me laugh irl, rare thing for a ludum game !

Honestly, you did well. And even if the gameplay itself has some flaws (I found the game funny but couldn't have my business working well) , the humor covered it. Noice ! (+ there's never too much game sabout chickens)

+ the audio is pretty swell too, it sticks right with the ambiance

Problematic Ownage by dukeaccent 2017-12-06T21:55:22Z

Hilariously realistic game, simple but efficient graphics (especially for a jam), some good ideas of gameplay. Maybe a little bit hard to handle first, but nice overall.

The Incredible Car Salesman by Eric Florio 2017-12-08T01:14:21Z

Nice concept, liked it. Good job !

Horny Bunny by Thomas FUentes 2017-12-04T19:32:20Z

Awesome. I don't know how else to say this : It's funny, choking for some probably, but boy, if it isn't a good idea.

The game become quicks a little hard, and maybe lacks a little more feedback, but it's compensated by the graphics touch like the fluffy effect next to the male rabbit's legs when they grabs you, clever choices and all

the game design itself is equilibrated,and works well. A very good job, good theme, a sound design not too dirty, just enough to be classy and fancy :P

Very noice/10

A Social Life by Owen Davies 2017-12-08T01:29:57Z

Fun graphs, interesting idea of a no-game. But the theme's well fitting. Lots of points on humor too.

Technologis by TheFunAttic 2017-12-05T14:49:17Z

I can't play it, the file is .rar ! Could you upload a zip file too ? It'll be pretty cool

Don't bug me! by trit_techne 2017-12-06T11:59:05Z

Found myself a botanic passion. Funny !

Lamattractive by Pandanym 2017-12-05T01:21:37Z

https://gyazo.com/576b25ac7a83e91c95dcedf80f6b7226

Very colourful (seriously it's clean af), with a pretty good musical ambiance. Juicy, much funny, even the only glitch (i had a kid flying acroff the map while turning on himself, after I headbutted him into a stand I think) I had (if it was a glitch) was noice . 10/10 would molest children again

Lucky by Curtis 2017-12-05T13:44:36Z

The ability to stuck yourself to the wall with inserting your hand into a 1-pixel large hole is interesting, but overall as you said it it kinda lacked of a bunch of thing. Still honorable for a jam, even more if it's your first. Next time, moar animations and make the movement less rigid, it'll be directly funnier and juicyier !

Surviving Christmas by JohnnyO 2017-12-04T18:59:54Z

Little game, mostly fun, Interesting way to use 3D and physics. Maybe the ball could be less slippery and/or helium-balloon-like ? I ended up dying a load of times because i was mashing space ont he snow like a retard.

Anyway, the ambiance is mostly nice, and there's a neat number of levels. I laughed when i saw my red ball bleeding off because of a rock, maybe if you replaced it with your 3d teddy bear model it would be even more appealing :P

Intruder alert by Falk Bruskeland 2017-12-04T17:54:34Z

Got gang-raped by a group of cabbages : vegetophobia/10

More seriously it's amusing, a little long to experience maybe as other people said, but I have to say i'm impressed by your health bars. And the fact that there's levels, and in which you can upgrade yourself, it's pretty neat for a jam game

ViKing of Norway by NamInUz 2017-12-10T14:39:16Z

Popped on the edge of the sea, runned around, were hungry, murdered rabbits with bare hands, it feeled good

Tried to cut off trees with bare hands, didn't work, was sad.

Saw they were NPC's selling me useless stuff, all I wanted was an axe, so I continued my way, killing rabbits on the plains.

But then, as I were talking to another random NPC, I wondered what happened if I tried to click on him. He started to run after I punched him several times. He ran off in the plains. I ran after him. A wolf saw us, he started to run after me while I was running after a random NPC. Then I killed the NPC, and started to run after a rabbit while the wolf was running after me.

Murdered a fuck ton of rabbits, one innocent yellow-bearded lad, and died as a hero in a tremendous bare-hand wrestle with a wild wolf.

Still haven't gotten myself an axe.

10/10 can hit NPCs (that's the only LD game in which I could do it so that's full points on fun, even if I think I haven't played the game like it was meant to be)

The explorer by Stepan Shabalin 2017-12-11T16:58:21Z

Interesting, maybe even more as a true die and retry mobile phone game. Needs maybe slightly more polish, but that's a jam, so it's ok. Noice overall :P

Edit : Oh, my bad, just saw you were a fellow Compo-er. Well it's a even much nicer game if it was made in 48 h ! Good job, really ! Will boost the score even more then

Hey look at this by Sugiuro 2017-12-08T23:11:27Z

Realistic as heck. Funny text lines & concept. Noice

Filthy-rich and Fastuous by Epono 2017-12-11T18:06:59Z

Fun game, nice mechanics, good job.

(And on Haxe ? That's some rare thing, maybe some Motion Twin/Shirogames afficionado here ? :P )

Goonisher by aaforcebox 2017-12-07T00:07:58Z

Didn't understood what I had to do, I thought first that the gems were like other enemies, following me. Then I saw that my gems augmented when I walked on thos little flashing enemies, lol.

And I didn't se that I could dash until I looked at the jam commens ! It's probably because I don't pay attention, but that ability's well made, so maybe you could show a "Press XXX to XXX" at the start. Otherall, noice game (even if I was afraid I got lost forever at some time, lol)

Oh, and maybe you could ass arrow keys to controllers, because for keyboard users using other than WASD, it can quickly become harder to play !

Sleepy Chicken Sexer by RobotsAndMuffins 2017-12-05T00:39:45Z

Funny game, with really clean graphics. Sad that sometimes the chicken grabbing was not totally perfect, but nobody's perfect and the game's very clean and polished for a jam.

And we don't see games about chicken's gender studies that often !

House a lovecraft inspired game by LERPish 2017-12-06T22:37:11Z

I liked the game, the atmosphere was allright (maybe not too much Lovecraftian, but if you see it as a standard jam enigma/horror game, it's pretty alright) and laughed alot on the little english errors here & there, gave a touch of naivety in a serious game and honestly it was cool, even if there were a few fashion-faux-pas like the game quiting while dying or the arial use :D

Level Onslaught by OrciFried 2017-12-05T01:09:11Z

Really nice animations, you use the motion blur pixel-art very nicely ! The effects makes the game pretty juicy, and nice to watch. It's a bit nervous, just as I like them ; For 48 hours, this is a decent level of polish ! Kudos to you !

Sorrow by Gnappuraz 2017-12-05T21:57:02Z

Perfect mood, good approach on theme, the practical physics were maybe a little lacking but that's a jam game and you attempted to bring some emotions, and narrative approach, with a very clean Limbo-styled graphic style, and intelligent use of art style, paintings int he game. A really good experience overall !

Shifting Dreamscape by Cruise Elroy 2017-12-06T22:57:09Z

Polished as heck ! A great game concept ! Cute graphics one time, and creepypastaed the other ! Maybe the controls could be improved a little (gets a little smoother) , but very neat !

You can't have too many cats by mollekake 2017-12-08T23:01:46Z

Real fun game, with a start and an end, appreciable thing on a jam. Funny dialogues, funny concept, funny story, nice scoring, made me want to play more and hate my cats ; goal acheived, very good job. (I hope nobody will be offended by the killing cats thing, I personnally found this really funny (but my own's game's involving homeless getting high on drugs and eating tarshcans before jail or death so I guess that's in the same vein))

A Spark of Light by TurbulentWinds 2017-12-08T23:59:54Z

Real smooth graphics. A nice ambiance overall, good job.

The idea is really good, but there's so much combinations, even for the first I had trouble making these !

The ingredient's physics too can be funny, but after a while playing it starts to be a little annoying to drag them to the pot, at the point that I finished by only playing basket with ingredients while frowing them from the farthest pointpossible, and trying to see how long i could make a sentence.

But the idea's still neat, it respects the theme, the graphs are, pictures, but well placed, it goes well together. Maybe you could try to dynamize it all to prevent this aspect of being a toy and not a game ?

oops sorry, didn't see that my keyboard was not in the right mode : you see, if your game makes me wanna tryhard it at the point wher ei have to change keyboard language, it's a good thing.

A little sad that you chose a sea ambiance, because your game is nervous, fast, for kids like me who liked jumpcraft in Minecraft 6 years ago it's really addictive, and you could have throwed a sick eurobeat song, or anything quick, or at least a jazzy ambiance if you wanted to do a constrast with the rapid actions you can take.

The controls could be more responsive and permissive too, sometimes sick moves are a little too hard to do because the character (who can turn his head 360, left right up down it was fun to try the game with head reversed) goes too fast in a direction too quickly. But that's balancing , and for a jam game it's quite frankly cool. Plus it makes for the tryhard-kind persons (like me) a need to finish a level, so it shows that your game works. Nice ! :)

Pub Crawler by GiraffeCat 2017-12-05T19:33:30Z

It was really funny, the only thing that lacke dmaybe was the presence of cops and a phrase or cinematic at the end saying that you took the car to drive home with 8.6 G/l in your blood :P

Overall, nice game with some honorable graphic polish for a jam 3d game.

Christmas Present by Jons games 2017-12-06T22:47:23Z

WOW ! A true revelation for me ! Honestly one of the best ideas I saw in action on the jam. You attempted to do something like really well, it's clever, well made, easy to handle... I was at first impressed by the web window following you, but asking myself what was the point in gameplay matters of doing that. Then I saw what you could do with your past self... It's pretty awesome ! And as you gave the code, I can now see how you've handled this, because it's impressive !

Big kudos to you guys, you deserve a true 5 on innovation and fun. (even if I got stuck 2nd level, but that's because i'm a moron ;) )

IDEA! by BetaNab99 2017-12-06T16:17:35Z

Noice sprites, but the game's maybe a little simple !

POKED - be social by Faktori 2017-12-10T14:52:30Z

Awesome art, neat sound design, funny texts and characters, and incredibable endings which I won't spoil because they're worth it. Even if dumping everyone you know and live as an ermit with your cactus is the best choice to do, even irl. The gameplay itself was really nice too, and the mom's image has a "Joli dauphiiiinnn" vibe into it that made me dream. 12/10 would water again

POKED - be social by Faktori 2017-12-10T17:27:39Z

@TheAnonymousCommentAboveMe Thought so :P Noice references

Open the Moon Gate by professor 2017-12-04T18:10:43Z

Quite frankly, i found this game to not be perfectly fit into the actual ld theme, but the fact is that there is a whole load of abilities you can use in this jam game, and that's pretty neat.

But you're getting a load of points on the music : that's my personal tastes but when i hear those kind of bass i just get too much in the ambiance, i couldn't concentrate on the tutorial because I was moving my head. Did you make th music during the game jam ?

Tiny Bullets by joekickass 2017-12-07T21:56:26Z

The games works pretty swell ! But maybe you could have done an effort on the game size, 404 MB to fight with some Pepe ? Really ? :P But the map's are really cool, good and complete level design ! Sad for the size of your file, i'm pretty sure that prevents a whola lotta people from downloading your game.

Knockback by Jay2645 2017-12-06T00:46:27Z

Nice motion blur, fast paced, and everything. Works well. Funny physics. You done it on solo, and it's your first Ludum (like me <3 but my game's in Compo) , so really, kudos to you mate. can't say more, the game's good !

Knockback by Jay2645 2017-12-06T01:04:16Z

@jay2645 Honestly, you did well enough, even for the jam, so that's fine ;)

Neon Hell by SirPumpyJam 2017-12-04T19:45:44Z

Frickin'beautiful. Really. It reminds me of Anton Kudin's works. As a matter of gameplay, I had a little trouble at first with the kinda slippery movements, but it gone well and even made it felt like piloting a realistic spaceship.

The music is very nice, and as I said before the graphics are gorgeous (that sky ! that background ! this mirror effect on water ! Damn !) , and even if it seemed like a kinda classical shooter, it really deserves a very good rate. Plus, the theme's well respected.

YOU HAVE TO TAKE YOUR PILLS by Werk 1 Play 1 2017-12-05T14:02:20Z

Really nice ambiance ! The sounds effect are appropriate, I really feel like a crazy dude, the sound designer did a super job. I honestly didn't know what i was doing during the game at first, just taking the pills even before understanding that I needed them to finish the level. The level design have sometimes places that are pointless, and it's such a pity that you didn't find any game artist to serve your creepy hospital intention, but that's full points on mood and sound design. The theme is pretty well respected too.

hard to understand what to do first, but once you do, it turns out it works fine ! Nice one !

Heart of the Cards by Neon 2018-05-01T19:12:25Z

Pretty voxel graphs, with a gameplay well-balanced and pretty much fun for a Compo game (as i'm doing Compo myself I know we ain't got no time for super accurate balanced mechanics, but you sir managed well your time). Eventually it coulda have been a li'l closer to the theme but honestly that's okay for me.

Restructive by aeveis 2018-05-02T23:09:24Z

Really cuuuute graphs !! Sadly some glitches, but really the base idea is pretty good ! Nice anims, and very catchy music ! Gg !

CONFESSIONAL by Rodrigo Denúbila 2018-04-25T14:03:34Z

Wow. For a game jam, that's insane. I have no words,so let me just say that : Gg. Consider doing a longer, more polished and lore-filled post-jam version, with even more post-process, fxs, and sound design to install a pure creepy ambiannce (i would love to see how the game could look like with a desaturated, high contrasted art), I thinkit could be a big Newgrounds hit. The theme approach is well thinked too.

The Legend of Block by maesk 2018-05-01T20:40:30Z

Really clever concept, as a puzzle-game afficionado I liked it alot. The game design was well done on here, gg

Between Dimensions by lautregars 2018-04-28T18:22:53Z

@silkworm_sweatshop Yep, I was really short on time so I couldn't do a proper tutorial with controls & gameplay tips, like mandatory double-jumps, or trying to switch cameras frequently to get past hard stages... I hop you still appreciated the idea :)

Between Dimensions by lautregars 2018-05-01T20:29:03Z

@sndr Thank you ! yeah, it was a constant rush, I managed my time really well on the graphs, sounds, was efficient and all, but I lost some on pure game mechanics.

Between Dimensions by lautregars 2018-05-01T22:37:26Z

@gustavo.christino Well,I only tested the browser version on Chrome. Even if the game's have much few problems with the downloadable version.

Edit : Yeah, apparently, restart by pressing on R still works well on the downloadable version, and even on newgrounds on Chrome. weird

Between Dimensions by lautregars 2018-05-02T09:10:08Z

@bentglasstube : Sorry you didn't like it ! Your 2d view switch automatically when the cooldown on the low-right side of the screen is finished, because, y'know, you're cursed and all. That was made in 48 hours, hard to balance it to a perfect time, or add feedback when you don't have much time before the view switch, so it's effectively important to look on this gauge while playing.

As of the controls glitching out, i'd like you to tell me more about i : Was it about the fact that you penetrate the platform when you jump without moving ? If so, you can just walk out of it.

Between Dimensions by lautregars 2018-05-02T09:42:23Z

@bentglasstube Oh yeah, I recognize that : You must have left-clicked when respawning, it makes you dash on your own place and eventually freeze the character. I'll try todebug that sometime, even if my code's a mess.Whoopsie, thank you for answering :)

Between Dimensions by lautregars 2018-05-03T09:37:45Z

@zinkler Wow, you beat it ? Like, really ? It's an incredible achievement ! Next time, send me a screenshot, i'll be happy to feature you in the game description to have beat a buggy compo-game !

FPS - Fugly Puzzle Shooter by Fedor 2018-05-01T22:08:11Z

Interesting concept, in which missclick isn't allowed. It's sad that you didn't got more time to polish it, I think with more feedback, dynamism, enemies, maybe it could be truly challenging. The puzzles were good indeed ; some action could have made it really great.

But it's a nice take on the theme, I think.

Oni Hunter by pataya 2018-04-24T02:14:06Z

WOAH dude ! It is truly excellent ! I'll give it at least 3.1 stars !

Learn Runner by gustavo.christino 2018-05-01T21:03:35Z

"Franboiçado" Oopsie, still don't know how to write this. The game concept itself was interesting, still it lacked some feedback and maybe true game over screen. Plus, the screen was quickly moving, I wasn't sure about which food I was picking and what was it's effect. But I wonder if I didn't learn some food names in foreign languages... Anyway, still a good take on the theme. And the music was pretty decent, maybe there's some FL Slayer in it, right ? :P

Project T.A.R.D.I.S. by Matoux42 2018-05-01T21:14:04Z

Le concept est bien bien sympa ! Au début j'y suis allé à l'instinct, j'ai direct claqué mon pognon pour me recruter une armée de professeurs Chen et aller me friter dans l'espace. Bon. sans amélioration d'armes aucune, c'était pas bien foufou, et j'ai trouvé un peu le temps long. Par contre, avoir de smonstres plus méchant en payant des crédits, c'est pas mal !

Pour le coup le theme, l'innovation sont là, ce qui manque c'est comme tu le dis dans ta description d'équilibrage, et de feedbacks. je pense que si la partie gestion elle même était chronométrée, et la partie shoot'em'up plus rapide, et plus difficile dès le départ, ça aurait déjà donné plus de tension et de fun au gameplay.

Mais en vrai comme moi t'as fait la Compo et c'est chaud d'avoir unt ruc bien et jouable, et en l'état actuel ton jeu tourne. du coup gg ;)

Photonic by Justintime4u2bu 2018-05-01T20:20:28Z

12 500 highscore. Neat little game, maybe shortening the scope to add more feedback and balancing coulda have made it better tho, but it's a Compo game, and gosh hard it is. Good job overall !

Cinema Drive by Texou31 2018-05-01T22:20:18Z

Alors, voyons ça : (ouais, j'ai vu que vous étiez français alors j'en profite ça va fluidifier ma prose) Le thème est bien respecté, c'est la première fois que je vois un jeu du genre, du coup c'est des gros points pour l'originalité.

Les graphs sont simples, efficaces, eventuellement il aurait peut être fallu un truc un peu plus rangé pour faire encore mieux, mais en vrai ça marche bien, c'est le principal.

Niveau son, la musique est cool, elle reste en tête et ça ça veut dire qu'elle fonctionne aussi. Eventuellement des "bilubulibulibilibilbili" (j'sais ps si c'est clair) quand les personnages parlent, ou bien des bruits de voitures, ou d'ambiance d'intérieur avec des gens ça aurait ajouté encore plus de feedback sonore et participé à l'immersion, mais après on est en jam, et y'a ce qu'il faut, donc ça va

Le gameplay + dialogeus, c'est vraiment le gros plus : le jeu fonctionne. Il tourne, il tourne très bien même, on peut parfois trouver les dialogues un peu longuets mais justement, le fait de les lire fait détourner le regard de la conduite, preuve que votre concept marche. Et il marche bien. En plus, on peut faire des run full martyrisation de chauve , en le nom de Gabriel. peut être qu'un chouia plus de questions réponses arrivant plus vite permettrait au joueur de garder un peu plus d'intérêt celà dit. AAprès, encore une fois, c'est un jeu de jam, tout est pardonné.

nan mais ça bouge bien, c'est rigolo, le jeu tourne, c'est du bon tout ça : allez hop, on va mettre des gros points. Bien ouej' :)

BlipBlapBall by Schu 2018-05-02T23:12:40Z

Nice theme interpretation, turn-based football : what a wonderful idea ! You did a game with 1 or 2 players during the compo, and that's an achievement. It lacked maybe some graphs, feedback, animations, but I think that's okay. Nice result overall.

Age of Spires IV (Text/Console + RTS) by David Greene 2018-05-02T23:03:34Z

Funny concept, Reminded me of the first clicker game -forgot its name- because of the old school interface. But actually, it's balanced (something rare for a compo game) , and the mechanics are simple to understand (even if it could have a li'l bit more of indications) . Overall, nice one !

Tennis Hero by JeffChen 2018-04-30T14:50:19Z

A well-done Compo game : Nice concept, short on paper but addictive and well-done enough to keep you playing, nice graphs and fx, no, really, you sir will surely have a very good ranking :) gg !

Agent Patissier by sndr 2018-05-02T22:57:28Z

'Meme'bumps by Chetan pant 2018-05-02T23:24:00Z

aaaaaaaaa, the screamers tho. Nice meme bruh, meme/10

More seriously, maybe the controls could be a little more fluid or quick, as the sound position isnt obvious, at least we could explore faster.

But overall, it was pretty funny. Big points on humor for the meme (there has to be meme games at every LD, right ?)

Shuffle Climber by miroky 2018-04-25T13:42:08Z

Score : 176

I saw a post about your game in the feed, and I thinked to myself that it looked nice : And it did ! Even if the random side was a little too harsh combined with the screen movment and card cooldown, somtimes making myself in a checkmate situation, the gameplay was pretty efficient, interesting, and really well respecting the theme.

I don't know how the card distribution algorithm is made, but maybe making up-cards appearing a li'l more often could make the game more pleasing (I know, i know, it's not always good to make a game easier but I think it would suit well your intentions).

Overall, good job !

Dedicated User Defined Entity (D.U.D.E.) by Bros. 2018-05-02T23:20:55Z

Crux Swarm by MarkoPoloDev 2018-04-25T01:18:44Z

A well-made, nice looking Godot game. The theme is respected, the gameplay is challenging but not too much ; I personnally had fun, as the game feel was neat.Overall, well done :)

TaiChi by Dreamer 2018-05-02T23:10:34Z

Nice little game, with nice base idea. Sad that we can see that you got short on time, as it lacks a li'l feedback .

Dancemazing by MariosManiatis 2018-04-25T12:44:50Z

Very nice ambiance for a compo game ! With sound spatialization, pretty impressive. Maybe the monster appeareance could have been a li'l bit spookier/jumpscare-ish, to add more contrast with the dance-off fight. Plus a camera feedback when we dance, like moving in the key direction we hit, could give a little more game feel

Catalpa by Samitalien 2018-04-25T01:41:12Z

At this point it's not eye candy anymore : It's eye-three-stars-restaurant-food with a massage in addition. Stunning graphics, and neat tunes. Gg

Snail and Salt by Kaiomoi 2018-05-01T22:50:50Z

Pour une première jam, c'est pas la moitié d'une bonne entry !

En vrai, le concept est bien fun, ça tourne bien, peut être il aurait fallu réduire un peu le scope pour avoir un gameplay plus concis et en profiter pour booster encore plus le feedback (oui oui, même sur un puzzle game) et donner un peu plus de cohérence aux graphs, mais franchement, encore une fois si c'est ta première jam en solo c'est vraiment bien, tu peux être fier de toi.

(Pis en plus les escargots c'est rigolo)

A Kid's Nightmare by N.O.X 2018-05-01T20:26:07Z

That's a bunch of voxel assets, gg working within the time constraint. The audio atmosphere and some of the props made the game just as creepy as I hoped it would be, and that's pretty cool... That's some big Mood points for you guys.

On The Fly by qkjosh 2018-05-01T21:58:51Z

I am alone, so I had to be the two birds at once... Whoopsie.

I have alot of things to say and a few time on my hand, so let's make points :

Graphs : Amazing. No, really. Beautiful 3d models, cute birds, and some sweet water (even looking a bit toxic, but I guess that's normal with how much garbage there's in there.) The skyboxes are awesome too, with color grading changing effects that are really appreciated, because that's a super nice effort during a jam.

Sound Design : Nice ambiance, adapting to the day/night cycle, cute birds sounds, maybe it would have been perfect with a few calm piano notes on the background but that's a personal taste :D

Gameplay : It is really well working indeed, it's calm, cute, the controls are easy to learn and use, maybe it coulda have been a bit harder, faster, and more dynamic during the fly-catching sessions, but that's because i'm an arcade maniac, I fully understand that maybe it would break with the intentions behind.

That romantic bird stroll in some bugs-filled post-apocaliptic world on a polluted river was extremely good. a very, very nice entry. Even if I have apparently some problems with my bird seduction lines, was on 50% win-rate on my answers :P

Fallen Leaves by LemonBalmGames 2018-05-01T21:41:47Z

end.PNG

Phew ! Attempted to speedrun it (yeah after like 11 deaths I remembered that I could dash so I never stopped pressing the W button since) and , well, it's a very nice jam game !

Efficient graphs, very nice particles, some backstory, riddles, and damn faith jumps everywhere !

Everything was pretty minimalistic, but it worked, you had a game with a start, an end, a story, so i guess it's mission accomplished ! (plus I liked Bill's level theme).

I played Rp first, reading attentively all the riddles, before seeing that I could rush the props to liberate the cloud dudes before they could even say a word.

But, I mean, I liked it alot ! So, nice game ! Especially for a first jam !

Super Velociraptor Party by Colthor 2018-05-02T23:17:31Z

Feed Me by Pyrodaes 2018-05-01T22:35:30Z

what.PNG

WHAT ?!

AFTER ALL I DONE FOR IT, THAT'S HOW IT THANKS ME !

Hoping to see a New Game++ in which I have awhip to teach it the good manners.

jokes aside, well i'm gonna make it short by just saying : Awesome.

I love virtual pets, so it's not difficult to get me hooked up : I tried to play my best to keep a small amount of money to feed it, while keeping cuddling it every day so it's mood would never go down. The scenario was previsible, but therefore satisfying : As soon s it began to grow up, I knew exactly where it was going, and was okay with it. I'm not gonna spoil, but that one friend of mine was very useful, as I ran out of money on this day.

But really, it's a game with digital-painting art, and that's rare. So it's really the cherry on the top of the cake. The Sound Design was very good too, ffs, those baby voice-lines have really surprised me when I heard em first.

The mood is on point too - Creepy, efficient, good parallel between the hosue music and the basement music-

Not much to say : You guys got yourselves no less-than-4 grades there, and even a bunch of 5. Super gg. And the fact that this is a first LD makes that even more amazing. Great polish, great take on the theme, great time management with this result in 72 hours : Great Entry.

1-2-3 Soleil! by ZappedCow 2018-05-01T20:34:52Z

Vraiment chou, l'animation de la, du, hum giraffe-cntaure androcéphale m'a beaucoup fait rire, et alors les bruitages sont vraiment mimis. J'ai eu un flash-back douloureux au moment de la défaite mais ça vallait le coup. Etmine de rien c'est une approche bien maligne du thème, donc ce sera 5 étoiles là dessus pour moi !

Toaster Boy by FreypodGames 2018-05-01T21:23:51Z

Capture.PNG

Whoops, guess i'm screwed. Funny concept, hard to play first because of the collisions making you stuck sometimes, but there's a bunch of assets, an efficient music loop, and a working gameplay loop. So I guess it's a gg for me. Those stop signs needs to be nerfed tho :P

monoPlatform by TheGreenMan 2018-04-25T13:38:22Z

Cute work, the graphs are basic but it's still effective. The token system is well-thinked, maybe more work on it could have improved the gameplay, but I suppose you ran out of time a little. The balance between previsions, strategy, sick moves, and just plain ol' random was interesting as well, even if I'm a little afraid of random. Anyways, It's a nice work for a first ludum Dare, gg for completing it !

Dungeon Typist by the_noffs 2018-05-02T22:59:31Z

Super Ice-Cream Roller Ultra by Probe31 2018-05-01T20:45:33Z

Survive the Date by Samurai Ducks 2018-05-01T22:42:03Z

Very nice concept , maybe lacked a little feedback but overall it worked pretty well. Good-looking graphs, Funny dialogues, good soundtrack. Yes, a pretty nice entry overall.
