LD34 — Two Button Controls / Growing

Full Metal Democracy by deepnight 2015-12-15T17:43:00

I kind of doubt this was actually made from scratch within 48 hours. Cool game nonetheless.

Agent Hooker by Phoenix849 2015-12-15T17:50:00

Very well done! Had a lot of fun with this one!

Slash Quest by Big Green Pillow ft Mgaia 2015-12-15T20:25:00

Oh my goodness this is full of greatness! So smooth and buttery, and also very cute. Absolutely nailed the two button control and growing themes!

Enliven by Patacorow 2015-12-15T18:36:00

I got confused by the controls probably far more than I should've. I found myself accidentally planting multiple plants instead of jumping :(

Concrete Jungle by Miltage 2015-12-15T17:49:00

Oh man! This is absolutely brilliant!

Tama Battle! by midgard 2015-12-15T17:39:00

10/10 Made me feel like I was in Grade 3 again!

UPSQUID by 01010111 2015-12-15T23:36:00

Cool spin on Downwell!

ORB LORDS by TravisChen 2015-12-15T21:36:00

Moar screen shake! Cool twist on the pinball genre!

Snekklr by keepee 2015-12-15T18:02:00

10/10 Computer ate himself. Would play again!

99 Steps by George 2015-12-15T17:44:00

Cool idea! Would love to see it expanded upon!

Super Sky Golf by savethejets1 2015-12-15T17:07:00

Brings back memories of how much I sucked at Hot Shots Golf series.

Beardgrow by esayitch 2015-12-16T16:32:00

Haha funny story / objective! I am terribly coordinated and sucked hard at this game, but I had a lot of fun with it!

LOW MEM by GagaPete 2015-12-15T22:03:00

Clever take on the two button control theme

Wargrow by Mixer 2015-12-16T16:35:00

I found the collisions were off and I was getting hit when I wasn't really touching anything :(

Run for shelter by psychomonster 2015-12-15T18:34:00

10/10 for use of Wilhelm scream

Mystic Temple by Tipyx 2015-12-16T16:50:00

I found the refresh rate and object speed made it difficult to see incoming objects. Loving the visuals though!

Unknown by Eshford 2015-12-15T17:40:00

Cool spin on the rhythm genre!

Orbital by OldPeculier 2015-12-15T22:05:00

Clever spin on a classic with the two button limitation

Gyra by Jishenaz 2015-12-15T22:09:00

What a neat idea! I found you could get pretty far just leaving the scale at max AKA max rotational speed. With a bit of logic, you could have the AI out smart that tactic. Pretty impressive nonetheless

Sadu - Clown For Hire by hoqjed 2015-12-15T16:48:00

I hope the kids don't mind that I filled their balloons with my smoker's cough...

Longbeard by Joe Williamson 2015-12-15T17:11:00

I'm a little skeptic that this was done from scratch during the 2 or 3 days for LD. Great game idea nonetheless.

01 by suppi 2015-12-15T21:58:00

Cool execution. Didn't feel like much of a game though...

Growing Ties by drludos 2015-12-16T16:45:00

Super neat tie growing mechanic!

Bug Plus Plus by Pat AfterMoon 2015-12-15T22:06:00

Reminds me of the caterpillars from Super Mario World

Ludum Vitae by Slothmachine 2015-12-15T21:56:00

Cool story bro (it actually was :D)

Parse The Sky by dustyroom 2015-12-15T18:41:00

Super stylish visuals and awesome choice in music. Controls were a bit finicky and made it tough to control :(

Super Lefty Garden Fighty by hexagore 2015-12-15T18:09:00

Very nice graphics! Would be cool to see this get expanded some more :)

Reap by managore 2015-12-15T17:46:00

Was this really made from scratch in 48 hours?

Grow Over by nonetheless 2015-12-15T18:00:00

Controls were a little finicky and I also ended up getting stuck jumping into a corner of an edge.

Garden Grow by justinooncx 2015-12-15T18:25:00

Excellent job on the game loop! Cool concept too!

The Super Bros (that are not Brothers!) by Xinelu 2015-12-15T17:38:00

It would be interesting to see more mechanics that involved distancing the brothers appropriately. I found I was just grouping them together and completing levels that way.

Deceit by xWarZonex 2015-12-16T16:48:00

I wasn't really a fan of how the mouse was mixed in with this. Kind of broke the immersion having to switch over to it...

Griffin Card by uheartbeast 2015-12-15T17:58:00

Super cool card mechanic! I'm not usually a table-top type of gamer, but this was a lot of fun!

Cave Adventure by Yvanor 2015-12-15T19:28:00

The controls weren't very intuitive I found. Graphics were nice though. Reminded me of the old Pitfall game :)

No Space For Cows by concalf 2015-12-15T21:46:00

I never noticed the core growing until I re-read the instructions here. Cool idea!

Space Elf by Farfin 2015-12-16T16:29:00

Stylish espionage with two button controls! Great job!

Grove Guardians by broknecho 2015-12-15T16:49:00

Fun challenging game that will keep you moving constantly as you try to balance offence and defence

From the Deep by scorched 2015-12-15T17:35:00

It was kind of difficult to control the jumping :(

Curse of the Slime Queen by mike.cullingham 2015-12-15T16:56:00

Good use of shaders for graphics. Cool idea of growing your slime kingdom!

Mt Etubo by thebrickanator 2015-12-15T22:14:00

I didn't entirely know what I was doing but I had fun doing it! haha

Looking forward to dissecting the source code. Thanks for release it :)

FLOW by Romixal 2015-12-15T17:15:00

So happy to see solid projects like this that are built using GameMaker (my engine of choice as well). Congrats on the fun, minimalistic game!

2 button metroidvania by JaJ 2015-12-15T18:30:00

Good job with the two button themed. Very interesting use of progression / leveling up and still only using two buttons

Precision Rainbows by Jimbly 2015-12-15T21:54:00

Not saying it would be easy to do, but It would be nice if P1 and P2 played on different maps. Or at least reverse the direction of one of them. That way it would add tension since one playing could be growing while the other thinks they are missing out.

Elenesski's Two Bar by Elenesski 2015-12-15T17:02:00

10/10 Made IE crash afterwards; would play again!

Button Betting by torcado 2015-12-16T16:42:00

Great job! Loved the game show / wario smooth moves`esque gameplay. Scared the crap out of me the first time I made a mistake...

Combat Hell by antonuklein 2015-12-16T16:38:00

Fun and simple game. I don't know why, but I loved the attention to detail for the cursor and how it changed with shoot, navigate, and the combination of both.

Are you grown? by Rfdshir 2015-12-15T16:27:00

Cool concept of aging. I wish I could advance the years myself rather than having to wait through it though...

PlantBoy by siObyte 2015-12-16T16:39:00

Wow! That's super cool how this was built!

1minuteBaby by jeroenwimmers 2015-12-16T16:52:00

Such a cool game that plays very well for an LD game.

Sentient Sewage by blakeohare 2015-12-15T17:26:00

Super cool idea! I loved the water physics!

U.G.O by aamatniekss 2015-12-15T17:53:00

Saw this one come up on my Twitter feed during development. Glad to have to chance to finally play it!

Belly Smash by Drunkain 2015-12-15T18:07:00

Oh man, if this doesn't win, I will have given up on people entirely!

Rise of the Weeds by SeaLeft Studios 2015-12-15T16:50:00

Cool take on the dual theme. Stressful in a fun way trying to balance resources and maximizing score!

MILK TEETH by Rufson 2015-12-15T17:33:00

Oh God! So disturbing (in a good way haha)

GURU by TomenLuca 2015-12-15T18:28:00

Dang, outwitted every time haha

Snow World by Elisée and friends 2015-12-15T18:39:00

Maybe because I am used to reading left-to-right, traveling in the opposite direction was disorientating haha

Synergy Shakedown by danbolt 2015-12-15T18:04:00

Tricky to get used to the controls somewhat, but after a while I got the hang of being able to turn around and maximize my employees performance

The Gun that Makes Things Bigger by rogual 2015-12-15T22:02:00

I found the collisions seemed a little off. The growth timer was a little fast to solve some of the puzzles IMO

Another Dragon by GeorgeBroussard 2015-12-15T22:11:00

Nice use of shaders to give it the retro feel. Controls could be a little more responsive though.

Squ by Wan 2015-12-15T22:18:00

Haha I get it - SQU!
