LD42 — Running out of space

Stacked Odds by Josh Riley 2018-08-13T00:12:21Z

Steep learning curve. I often ended up just spamming all directions in hope of getting points. Guess I need to invest some time in learning the mechanincs. Besides that, the game felt really really good and everything seemed to have been done with care!

CRAMMM: Totally Accurate Studying Simulator by tuism 2018-08-13T11:11:22Z

Haha what a cool game. Trumpology, like wtf. Intense but enjoyable. Only frustrating part is when you are forced to throw stuff at the bottom, so that even the correct thoughts fly away. Good job!

Demonologist by Ghen 2018-08-12T23:22:31Z

Really reminds me of the Machinarium minigame inside the brain!

Passengers Tetris by Gao Ming 2018-08-13T09:33:27Z

Very neat little game! Humorous implementation of the theme. Bug free, runs smoothly, addicting gameplay. And not to mention the pretty art style, sfx and fitting music. Good job

Brand new shop by Mathiouza 2018-08-13T18:48:55Z

Neat little game! I became addicted quickly. The graphics somehow reminded me of McPixel, and I love it. Good job, keep up the awesome work!

Flesh Packer by nervous-composers 2018-08-22T14:30:36Z

That was... well lets say a unique entry. Simple and clean

They Came while I was jogging by amras0000 2018-08-12T22:54:47Z

Quite a cool game! The best part was the intro, I like how you implemented it in the gameplay. Graphics, however, could have been improved a lot.

Destination: Earth by aviv871 2018-08-13T09:53:51Z

Cool game! Took me four tries to finish. Perhaps a little too easy, but challenging enough to keep one entertained for a couple of minutes. Beautiful ending by the way!

EVOLUTION by Noa Calice 2018-08-13T14:53:07Z

I could tell almost immediately from the music that this game wouldn't be as cheerful as it looked. I was not disappointed. This is a little masterpiece.

Graphics: 5.0 Mood: 5.0

Into Asteroid Belt by Jakub Kazimierski 2018-08-12T23:57:48Z

Super pretty game! Only complaint is that the result of two asteroids colliding felt very inconsistent and unpredictable. But maybe this is simply a part of the game's nature.

Rampart by Jeremy Ryan 2018-08-13T00:05:04Z

What a well made little game! The graphics are on point. The music and sfx are really good. And everything simply feels so good and smooth. Dude, be proud. You made something great!

Running out of Keys by OadT 2018-08-12T23:48:49Z

Really cool concept! It was (at least for me) something completely new. However, it was kinda frustrating when you misclicked on the wrong key (which was rather easy to do).

Overgrowth by gagouman 2018-08-12T22:32:54Z

This was a very interesting game! Seeing the food supplies go down quicker than I don't know what, while constantly collecting cash and spamming facilities. I actually really enjoyed the few games I played (although I did not complete it (10 sec on timer)). I was surprised by how well the numbers were tweaked. Gameplay gets a big plus. However, this game's downside is the graphics. Anyway, fun little that has plenty of potential!

Elevator Crush by SprovGames 2018-08-13T10:04:39Z

I like the simple controls. However, the visuals could have been improved by a lot. The few games I played was enjoyable.

High score: 13.

Owned By by arctic_allosaurus 2018-08-13T19:37:29Z

This game is really something else, compared to the other entries. You nailed the unsettling atmosphere. Good job!

Velocity Square by snarf2000 2018-08-13T11:29:15Z

The movement is superb. Cool game, but too short.

Edge Runner by Johnny Turbo 2018-09-01T16:21:41Z

Cool game! Gameplay-wise, it felt really solid and good.

Pros: - Fun gameplay. - The difficulty. Challenging but not impossible. - Simple controls. - The video in the end.

Cons: - Horrible graphics (sorry :P but I'm sure you can improve them without problems!) - No audio. Made the experience feel kind of "empty".

This game would easily be ported to mobile without any suffering. Great job!

Feel free to check out my game too, if you have time.

HELP: The Illuminati captured my family and are forcing me to make this game by CaptainDreamcast 2018-08-16T20:56:29Z

The humor is gold. Gameplay is not bad, too

Chill Daddy by guilhermesouza 2018-08-17T07:42:09Z

You really nailed the mood in the cutscenes. Wish the gameplay had the same feeling. Still a superb entry! Great job

Block Breaker by Fenerax 2018-08-13T09:22:07Z

PROS: + Minimalistic and well made graphics. + Feels very good. + Somewhat addicting gameplay. + Good use of theme.

CONS: - Unoriginal concept. - The walls moved at an unforgiving pace.

7/10!

Evolucity - Build as high as you can! by Mazzletov 2018-08-12T23:15:11Z

Cool concept. But pretty hard. Love the urban atmosphere.

Quadrata Minima by mccarlp 2018-09-03T18:40:00Z

Saw Shaun Spalding playing this on his stream, and decided to check it out myself. Really neat and addicting! Cool that you implemented a global leaderboard, too!

Red Square by tetra 2018-08-12T23:29:36Z

Interesting puzzle game but why TF is there a guy in the background on one of the levels!?

Pre Alpha Build by PlusMinus 2018-08-16T20:37:05Z

Very enjoyable. Looks superb, well made pixel art. I had a good time playing this! Good job, all of you

Falling Ecosystem by sprvrn 2018-08-13T19:02:41Z

Great feedback, game feels superb to play. And the graphics are really neat!

Bookbinding by caeonosphere 2018-08-14T09:03:20Z

"If rip sip expect fishy trap song"...

...

...

IQ increased!!

SpaceLab 42 by Wassim 2018-08-29T07:52:40Z

Hmm.. super promising trailer and teaser. But as I read many comments while downloading the game, I realised this would be a rather short one. And boy was the comments right, I managed to speedrun it in 9 seconds (!). Sorry, the gameplay is not there yet (and I know I'm not the first to mention it). However, with some larger updates this could really be something. The mood and atmosphere was really good, for example!

But, as many also stated... giving "false" feedback is really annoying. @rahim-pxr commented on my game yesterday, while it seems like nobody has downloaded it for the last 9 days. Come on... we're here to help each other in a serious way.

Colony by thechubbypanda 2018-08-13T19:21:31Z

PROS: - Awesome background music. - Pretty pixel art (except for the shuttle, sorry, it felt out of place). - "Captain's log" is very cool.

CONS: - Clunky movement when on moving platforms. Causes most deaths.

TooooClose by Alexandre2BI 2018-08-13T00:27:38Z

The horizontal speed felt too high, which caused the ship too crash a bit too often. Frustrating but cool game.

Mike's Movers by William Corrin 2018-08-13T00:46:14Z

Intense and challenging. Love the voice acting and overall tone of humor.

Petra by cassowary 2018-08-13T10:29:23Z

This game is incredibly well made. The difficulty is absolutely perfect (I got stuck on the "impossible" level for 10 min, the solution was cleverly made). And now the music is stuck in my head :)

Mass Coalesce by Jumpander 2018-08-13T11:23:11Z

Very cool atmosphere and artstyle. Only downside is that the controls feel a bit clunky.

A Way Out by sdrrv 2018-08-13T10:59:34Z

Addicting! But I have to say it was a bit frustrating when a red ball spawned right below the metal thingy, only to hit me right in the face :(

LavEscape! by ocekat3 2018-08-17T21:43:50Z

Cool little game! High score: 224 (I know... not very good but I tried so many times :P)

Introvert vs. Extrovert by rumor 2018-08-13T10:38:03Z

Haha what a silly concept. I love it! And the power ups and their effects are really cool!

Geometry Merge by M8rix 2018-08-13T09:10:29Z

Thanks for your comments!

@jackou @doublebiceps @gagouman Was running low on time, but I'd definetly make some kind of bgmusic if there was more!

@piece-ofcheese @kaisean-games Stupid me decided to raise the amount of extra steps from 5 to 7 right before publishing. Yup, it's definetly too easy when you get the hang of it. Maybe I'll tweak the numbers again.

Geometry Merge by M8rix 2018-08-16T19:01:43Z

I appreciate all of your comments and feedback! I'm very glad that most of you seem to have enjoyed the game :)

And thanks @tetra for the little promotion :P

Geometry Merge by M8rix 2018-08-29T15:31:56Z

Thank you very much @wassim! No need to be sorry at all! Let's just play and rate games for the last couple of days before deadline and be hyped for the final results :smile:

Geometry Merge by M8rix 2018-09-01T23:09:24Z

Thanks @johnny-turbo for playing! I know... I was dumb not testing it enough before publishing. However, a more balanced version will be released right when the jam is over. And it will include a second gamemode ;)

Geometry Merge by M8rix 2020-04-20T15:15:38Z

Thank you @ghostonline for your feedback! Yeah perhaps I should tweak the sfx somewhat.. however believe it or not this was created for LD 42, feel free to check out my most recent game as Well :)

BugStorm by leon75 2018-08-13T00:36:03Z

The atmosphere was on point. I liked the voice acting, too.

PostMord by meltobis 2018-08-13T20:18:53Z

Wait, this is an exact replica of how shipping works (if the company is light blue).

Stack Overflow by firefly4 2018-08-13T10:50:03Z

Intense as hell but once you knew the controls, you could pretty much keep it empty all the time. Still a fun game. Good job.

Eterneroids by skytiger 2018-08-12T23:41:09Z

The movement of the player is kind of awkward, I'd say you could work on that if something! But it feels good to shoot down all the enemies! Good job anyway!

LD46 — Keep it alive

Princess Ribbon by Goutye 2020-04-20T13:15:04Z

Probably the funniest LD entry yet! It would work fantastically as a mobile game and I could see many more elements implemented. Great job!

Locked'goshi by StabAlarash 2020-04-22T19:16:55Z

Really impressive job there! It is super well polished and feels very good to play. Cute and somewhat addicting. Did finish the game on my first attempt though :P

Keep the princess... Alive by Vivoubos 2020-05-04T18:10:49Z

Plenty of gameplay for a LD entry! Thank you for implementing check points :) A bit clunky overall but easy to get a hang of, great job

A Car With No Name by SaraJS 2020-04-20T11:46:15Z

Great potential game Shaun! Not much of a game yet, but it still feels great to control and I appreciate all the tiny details. After watching your entire stream I must say that it is incredibly satisfying to finally try it out myself :)

MÄHBÄHRT by tomdeal 2020-04-20T12:05:32Z

I liked it! But sometimes it was frustrating how slow the mower actually was. Otherwise it was kind of satisfying and relaxing. A big plus for the boosters in the 3rd level. Good job!

Indie Dev Tycoon by Apple Dash 2020-04-21T17:59:06Z

Maybe a bit too complex to fully enjoy it for only a couple of minutes. Not that challenging either. Still a f-ing hilarous game you got there. Lovely concept that most of us relate fully to, the texts was what made this game outstanding. Great job man!

Monster Love by Endurion 2020-04-23T07:44:07Z

I hade really fun with this one! Impressed by the many different features implemented. Took me a while though to understand that you could charge the hamster wheel additionally by holding down.. the upbeat music was a plus! Gj

A lost fire by Barbiche 2020-05-04T18:19:05Z

Cool sound effects and relaxing atmosphere. A bit clunky movement however, it irritates me that the player cannot rotate in the same spot. Some of the trees seems to levitate also. But in general, awesome little entry!

Zombie Cure by thx4nothing 2020-04-21T18:06:10Z

I found the lighting a bit glitchy and epileptic. But still kinda solid gameplay for a FPS! Good job!

Just Fishing by DrunkardWolf 2020-04-20T07:21:11Z

Reminded me very much of the animal crossing fishing system! I loved the ambiance, especially the sound of the waves. I also think that the game was balanced. If I tried to do my best, a game would last for about 2 min before the timer ran out, which seems reasonable. Perhaps it was a little annoying with the waves that covered the fishes, but that maybe is the point of them? Anyways, good job!

Keep The Power Plant Alive by rich 2020-04-22T19:31:50Z

I think the resources showed wrong numbers sometimes? Or could be me, but it said i didnt have any when i clearly did. Anyways when i finally figured how to place poles it became kinda interesting, especielly with the constant pressure of "zombies" :) gj!

Heart String by MZA 2020-04-21T16:45:27Z

Even without instructions or tutorial, it was easy to learn the concept quickly. Cool mechanics and very challenging, I guess thats the charm. Great job

Look After Larry by Untitled Studios 2020-04-20T13:54:20Z

A really cool puzzle concept which required plenty of thought. Executed really well, however if something I'd say a thorough tutorial of some kind would be great. Gj!

Fishing Survivor Extreme by nizlow 2020-04-25T09:41:07Z

Kind of addicting when I figured out how to play. Really engaging to push as far as possible, beyond thousands of fish at the same time! Good job :)

GOLKIA by Szieberth Adam 2020-04-25T09:27:21Z

Beautiful entry. Actually really relaxing.

Soulbound by Fenderbate 2020-04-21T17:24:58Z

Great entry! Yeah it really reminded me of Mario bros, as somebody else mentioned. Stunning graphics and extremely well polished! The only thing I miss is some sort of highscore-system!

Feed Me! by caeonosphere 2020-04-22T06:52:21Z

Wow what a adorable game with great atmosphere. The cuteness really made you do your absolutely best to keep the radish pet alive

Feed Me Freddy by kevwpl 2020-04-23T15:50:53Z

Cool graphics! Lacks interesting and engaging gameplay though... but what to expect from only 48 hours? Good job!

Exosphere by M8rix 2020-04-22T06:33:49Z

Thank you everyone for your feedback! Oh and @caeonosphere, don't think I have forgotten your hilarious book title game :)

Exosphere by M8rix 2020-04-27T06:09:28Z

@wans24 @silkworm-sweatshop Yes indeed, a soundtrack is in the works actually! @ursagames Thank you for feedback! Great stream there, as always :)

Exosphere by M8rix 2020-05-10T20:24:05Z

@nonsans Thanks, very appreciated feedback! :)

Gooperworm by BloodpulpGames 2020-04-20T12:47:58Z

Cool game! Inspired by slither.io much? :) Pretty straight forward and simple gameplay. Satisfying animations as well! I think it is a bit slow though, or is it my computer?

Be Cool or Die by Asier 2020-05-04T18:00:02Z

Pretty little game. Loved the range of wild animals. Good job man

Brain Training 101 by DigitalLimestone 2020-04-20T07:43:34Z

Lovely game! Really creative and fits the theme perfectly. Great little tutorial in the beginning, I have to say. The game was super challenging though, i'd say you should make the game much easier initially but increase the difficulty slowly while you play.

Party Pooper by Agent8364 2020-04-21T17:35:26Z

Cute little game. However I seemed to run into a bug when some of the customers refused to accept my food even if it was the right type... well I see potential anyways!

Enduring Toddel by WhyNotYT 2020-04-24T17:02:05Z

Lovely concept! Taking care of a baby is the definition of multitasking. Good job!

Flora is chilling by TheShamo 2020-05-04T18:05:27Z

Cute game. A little challenging though in the beginning, not knowing how the values change. Good job anyways!

Dave's Birthday Party by GoldenEvolution 2020-04-20T09:56:55Z

What a beautiful entry. It's both cute and humorous, and feels extremely well polished. I love what you did to the music every time the player lost a life. One thought though, is that it is a bit unforgiving as the gun doesn't really have that much power. Perhaps increase it somewhat? Well, good job anyways on this one!

Last Light by pedromgdo 2020-04-20T10:05:57Z

Cool little game with great potential. Love the concept of a shop. But yeah, really challenging even if I bought the damage upgrade as fast as I could. Perhaps tweak that a little! Anyways, well done!

Tears of Coffee by Milestone Games 2020-04-20T12:14:51Z

The graphics are absolutely gorgeous!! However the gameplay is not there yet, the game is repetitive and not very interesting... but don't get me wrong, there is lots of potential Grymt jobbat!

Blood & Sawdust by mcprog 2020-04-20T08:57:57Z

The game was without doubt challenging when you were approached by many enemies at the same time. It was a bit unclear what the companion did and why it started attacking you. Also, the game was rather short since the key was not super well hidden, but what can you really expect from only two days of development? Good job anyways!

Where`s my Pills by colan 2020-04-29T09:17:25Z

Cool graphics. I miss a great soundtrack though. Good job !

Flammo - Keep The Fire Alive by Team Prosit 2020-04-20T07:54:33Z

What I liked most about this game was definitely the whole concept of your light slowly going out. It kind of forced you to speedrun despite the extremely challenging environment. However I think you should implement at least some sort of checkpoint system. Otherwise half of the players will rage quit within the first minute. Good job!

Keep the Earth Alive! by ColeHorvat 2020-04-20T09:44:14Z

Okay I must say that the game felt really good, like it was super satisfying because of the screen shake and particle effects when destroying the asteroids! However I think there could be great improvements when it comes to graphics and ui. The game simply looks a bit unprofessional right now. But there is great potential. Good job for your first Ludum Dare!

BigFlow by Nivamdjo 2020-04-23T15:42:57Z

I like how you must keep many different things in your head at the same time!

Space Station Alpha by kjscott 2020-04-21T17:46:55Z

Great game, I am shocked how much you were able to implement for only two days of developing. Awesome graphics for example. However the game was somewhat confusing so thank you for the little guide. Gj!

Protect the Eye by penjami 2020-04-20T13:27:27Z

Amazing atmosphere and incredibly well polished! Stunning pixel graphics and a balanced increasing difficulty. I have nothing bad to say.

Save That Baby by JordyForNow 2020-04-20T09:50:49Z

Wonderful. I don't think I have anything to say. I love the brutality. Good job buddy. Oh and my highscore was 28!

PLANTVENTURE by Tudorix 2020-04-24T16:50:21Z

Very long levels and has everything that you expect from a platformer. Good job

The Last Life by NiKKrope 2020-04-20T09:24:35Z

Hmm I am having issues with the download, seems like I can't access it from itch.io

Feeding Time! by ghostonline 2020-04-20T09:33:54Z

You have done an awesome job polishing this game. The simple but cute graphics are on point, it is humorous and it feels good to play. Lovely sound effects too! This is one of the few LD entries I certainly could see turn into a full game. Good job!

Get To The Chopper! by DevParty 2020-04-22T19:21:43Z

I like the fact that you can destroy your own mini helis. Some missing features though, like collision around the screen. Anyways good job!

The Undivine Comedy by JamesSauer 2020-04-23T16:00:02Z

A game which stands out from most other entries. And thats great! :)

Little Restaurant of Horrors by Goldfish Games 2020-04-20T13:40:54Z

Lowkey terrifying, watching how it grows in the basement. A bit unclear what to really do though, I didn't fully understand why I got so slowed down... still a cool game you got there! :)

Don't Leaf Me by MickeyO 2020-04-22T06:27:22Z

Neat game! Very well polished and feels super good. Cute graphics and... puns... good job!

LD47 — Stuck in a loop

Looper by jk5000 2020-10-05T16:18:21Z

Wonderful and kind of addictive! This game offered a perfect amount of challenge and frustration. I like that the parameters are different every time, so that you have to start over. Great job!

Race Condition by pekuja 2020-10-05T20:34:51Z

amazing racing game, but the bot cars are extremely annoying :) nice job. will play again

LoopyDraw by sanojian 2020-10-10T19:12:07Z

Really nice little concept!

Rest In Peace by Somnium 2020-10-10T10:54:54Z

Required a little bit of thinking which was nice. Good job! :)

Loop Invader by Ale 2020-10-05T15:58:08Z

As everybody already states: what a great concept! Too bad my keyboard wasn't compatible with the game, and gave different characters than expected :( looks amazing though!

The Infinite Ark by SaraJS 2020-10-07T12:46:47Z

Super solid entry after all! And I must say that the soundtrack is one of the coolest yet.. Good job of you!

Anomaly 47 by PhilStrahl 2020-10-07T12:35:21Z

Love the artstyle and especially the player animation. Great atmosphere as well (no pun intended). Nice as always Phil! Will we see a post mortem of this in the future? :)

Blip by KekkoDude 2020-10-05T20:02:55Z

Cute little game. I like the dialogue and the boost effect! Has great potential but not too much gameplay for the moment. Nice job anyways :)

Wild Ride by CaptainDreamcast 2020-10-06T17:22:58Z

Both very addictive and frustrating. Amazing story. And the ending was very worth the struggle! :) nice job

Loopstuck by Nobleboy 2020-10-05T20:23:00Z

nice greasy game gj :)

Tower of Madness by Eduardo Yukio 2020-10-07T12:07:07Z

It became interesting when spikes started moving. Solid controls. Graphics could be improved somewhat though. Anyways, nice job!

Habits by M8rix 2020-10-06T16:10:16Z

Thanks to everyone for the feedback! Much appreciated <3 @somnium Yup you are right, I will fix this issue shortly!

Habits by M8rix 2020-10-08T15:37:29Z

@c1tr00z dangit you must have downloaded the 0.1.0 version then... it should be patched in the most recent version. Thanks for playing anyways!

InYourFaceABook by RGilPT 2020-10-05T15:49:05Z

Took me a while to get the hang of it, and the game crashes when you drop your news in the wrong spot. However a big plus for all the little symbols and their relevance in our world :) Gj!

State your name by OwlyCode 2020-10-10T19:32:15Z

Excellent and gripping story!! Intuitive gameplay and I like it :)

Viktor by Palemek 2020-10-06T17:30:28Z

Dope soundtrack! But for me the game froze every five seconds so I couldn't experience the games full potential. May be my potato PC. From what I saw though, super cool little game!

Loop World by helekopeter 2020-10-10T19:22:18Z

Finally a game that prioritizes gameplay. Kind of addicting despite being really challenging sometimes. Good job!

The Loop by TheVideoGamester 2020-10-05T15:32:45Z

Dope soundtrack! Sometimes a bit unclear what to do next, but the cool puzzles really make up for it. And yeah, I will stop SCREWING around :)

Fearcle by Jupperevie 2020-10-07T13:05:05Z

Disturbing game :O wonderful execution with a tense atmosphere. Beautiful

The Lone Starmen by cyberfrank 2020-10-06T17:41:26Z

I rarely give away a 5.0 star rating in a category. But your art style went far beyond the typical Ludum Dare entry. Well done.

Omega Virus by Cryptomnesic 2020-10-07T12:14:09Z

Cool little game. I didnt figure out how to choose different classes though :((

We need to talk by bereg 2020-10-07T12:00:22Z

Cute little game. Somehow remembered me of Tomodachi Life and its ferris wheel!

Extended Loop Green by Voidsay 2020-10-10T18:58:36Z

Spooky atmosphere... somehow expected a creepy jumpscare at any moment haha

Escape! by toby1645 2020-10-05T16:03:53Z

Neat little action game! Reminds me of Cat Mario and similar trial-and-error games. I had fun with this one, and my biggest wish is that it could be even longer. Nice job!

Just In Beaver by ondy1985 2020-10-05T20:15:57Z

Cute and polished little game! Fun and interesting arcade mechanics :)

Mom! I've got a job! by Food Lovers 2020-10-07T12:52:13Z

Amazing art and a lovely atmosphere! But the gameplay became a little repetitive quickly. Nice job!

Back To Routine by Xisco 2020-10-05T20:09:46Z

Beautiful :) funniest entry yet. Good job!

Human Generator by WTFree 2020-10-07T12:22:51Z

Wonderful and instantly addicting. Had to play it twice :)
