LD57 — Depths

Mole Cart by Skosnowich 2025-04-11T13:47:22Z

Simple but really fun to play! I liked the way you slowly introduced mechanics through level design, and I found the level complete animation pretty cute =D Good job!

Lovely, Dark and Deep by randomhuman 2025-04-08T16:35:27Z

Lovely mood and humor, great entry!

Repossessed by beardywombat 2025-04-08T15:59:48Z

i loved the voxel artstyle, pretty unique for the jam!

the textboxes were a bit to fast to read, and i felt the turning speed of the lich was a bit slow

Mutant Ocean by boaheck-artgent 2025-04-08T16:30:41Z

Just beautiful pixel art, sound design and music were really good. i was confused which fish could attack me, and also which specimen i was carrying in that run currently, but overall really great entry!

Deep Dark Difficult by Shess 2025-04-08T16:18:08Z

i love the funger references, and i like that you kept the mood light and funny, all the text entries were well written. The gameplay was really fun! Great job!

Camp Ketosis by Genesis 2025-04-08T03:37:06Z

Absolutely awesome presentation! And the idea was pretty unique too!

I wish I could change the mouse sensitivity during the game, it was pretty slow for me personally.

Diggin' Deeper by gquibao 2025-04-08T03:46:04Z

This was really fun to play! Artstyle and sound design were also pretty good!

Just one suggestion: on the deeper layers, I found it a bit hard to see which block was which because the light was too small, maybe the light could be bigger or the dark areas of the screen could be a bit brighter.

Overall, good job!

Descent Protocol by fingolfin 2025-04-11T13:37:49Z

Really loved the idea! The art was pretty solid, I was just confused about what to do, and I think some feedback for when the engine is too hot or fuel is low would help to direct the player. Overall a really solid entry, I'd love playing a more expanded version!

Burrilka by echerry 2025-04-10T13:46:08Z

Absolutely amazing! The gameplay was really intuitive and the slow introduction of each new mechanic felt great. Art, sound design and voice acting were just perfect, great job!

Too Fishy by Jo Bettaque 2025-04-08T03:03:49Z

Really liked the artstyle! I made a similar game in concept, and I appreciate all the different mechanics and tutorial popups you managed to implement, really nice work!

I think the controls could be improved a little bit, I found it hard to aim the spear while going up especially.

At some point the music stopped and didn't loop again.

Loot Well by retonymy 2025-04-09T16:17:14Z

Really fun game! Although it was a bit too hard, I'd offset the chest to be lower on screen, and make it so that it doesn't collide with the chain above. The art and UI look really professional, and the music worked pretty well for adding tension. Great entry, would definitely play an expanded version!

Depths of Discovery by CamComDuck 2025-04-08T03:28:44Z

Nice one! I also love me some upgrade games with good progression, took me about 10 minutes to beat it.

I also liked your shop UI! the tabs were pretty great for sorting the upgrades.

Some suggestions i have is to add a flash effect when the player gets hit, and slightly darken the areas where the player can't see the fish.

Overall, great job!

A Well to Wonderland by Mathieu Chougui 2025-04-09T16:24:30Z

Just beautiful art and presentation! On the gameplay side I felt the hitboxes were a bit too big, but overall very creative entry!

Treats for Charybdis by fragskye 2025-04-11T14:01:01Z

This was the funniest entry for me! The way the girls would spin and the battery would just fly off their hands at like mach speed was hilarious xD I managed to get one of the batteries to collide in such a way that it bounced upwards and gave me a view of the entire map. Great job would play a full version 10/10

Esca - Ludum Dare 57 by bakuzen 2025-04-10T14:04:37Z

Congrats on finishing your first solo game jam! Artwork looks just great with all the moody lighting and composition, and the anglerfish looks really cute! Took me some time to adjust to the controls, but it was really fun once I did. Great entry!

Doctrines - LD57 Game by Riggen 2025-04-08T02:31:07Z

Really liked the artstyle with all the dithering!

I noticed some cards in the middle were not being highlighted, although I could still select them.

I also wasn't sure if the slime was healing itself or not, its health bar kept resetting.

Egg Rescue: Detective by jetaimais 2025-04-08T16:08:58Z

Really cute and charming! I also loved the mood, and the unique twist to the theme as a game mechanic was very creative. Great attention to detail on the diary entries, great job!

Thallas by HDVR02 2025-04-10T14:23:51Z

Great mood and ambience! The art and animations were gorgeous, although I really missed a slider to adjust the brightness a little bit. Good job!
