LD46 — Keep it alive

Ages of New Earth by HitchH1k3r 2020-04-24T03:56:09Z

This game was super interesting to play! I found it super challenging how one I'm in the red for something, more detriment cards just kept piling on. One of the only game jam games that made me keep coming back to try out a new strategy. I really like how the UI was super smooth. One nit-pick is that some of the text was difficult to read. Overall a really fun game!

HEAL ME PLZ by Pietro Ferrantelli 2020-04-26T04:01:14Z

This is seriously such a great game. I love the take on the theme, and the gameplay, and the graphics, and and and everything about it. Never before have I got the opportunity to kick players who are calling me a bad healer :)

Pet Protecc TD by Ithildin 2020-04-26T02:48:29Z

I love tower defense games! Such a rush to place turrets in the beginning of a round to prepare for the end game. I like that it's quick to restart if you mess up.

Medic! by mrbandler 2020-04-23T04:18:47Z

Love the take on the theme, keeping more than one it alive. Sort of gave me an Overcooked vibe with how you have to manage the beds! Edit: I also really liked how the bullets seemed to come in time with the music, whether on purpose or by accident. It created a really cool effect!

Keep It Alive by danman9914 2020-04-24T02:15:00Z

Love the style of this game! The multitasking was so much fun. The animations reminded me of game and watch and I really liked that for some reason. I enjoyed the dialogue as well. The simple controls made it really easy to get into. 5/5!

Tablet Force by AdamV 2020-04-23T04:09:23Z

Love that you have to manage keeping yourself alive, as well as the tablet. Also love the choices of what you can do with your energy, between disabling the sentries or shooting them. I usually say that I found a game too difficult, but I think the sentries did too little damage!

The Drown by Simon Rahnasto 2020-04-23T03:42:48Z

Best game I've played this jam so far! Loved everything about this game except maybe the sound effects and the music (but that's just my opinion). The voice for Reactor was so cool!! Also the game crashed when Reactor died :/ Crazy to think that all this was made in 72 hours!

Cloudy With A Chance Of Pain by ProdigalSon 2020-04-26T03:19:02Z

Super fun! I loved all the interactions between water and lightning. Super cute I almost feel bad killing the wolves haha

FEED HOLE by Aj Jones 2020-04-23T03:52:28Z

I love my new lobster friend! Game is super fun and I love this take on the theme. You're keeping Gyga's hunger meter alive, but so Gyga keeps the rest of the world alive! Only complaints are that it seemed that my projectiles had a limited range, forcing close combat, in which it was difficult to see what was going on with all the particle effects and explosions.

MicroVore by Eran Haas 2020-04-26T02:40:13Z

The graphics were beautiful and the audio was really great as well! A couple of my nitpicks are that it wasn't obvious what to do at the beginning (I had to read through these comments for help) and sometimes it was hard to judge how far the light collectibles are from the camera, especially the ones on the walls. This already did a number on my GPU but maybe enhance the light emitted from the collectibles, and the reflections on the wall so that it's easier to pinpoint exactly where the collectibles are. Love it!

by Sthor726 2020-04-21T02:49:48Z

Love it! Love the songs, and the little things like how he flinches when you miss a beat, and the dancing radio. Super funny. I wish Ivan had more of a Russian accent :)

SPOF: Single Point Of Failure by spectralcascade 2020-04-24T02:31:29Z

I agree that the game feels a little slow. I almost wish that repairs and purges cost less so that they don't slow down your progression so much. Purges cost 2.5x the price of a new server! Maybe have hacks and repairs be like a quick-time event and you only get punished if you miss one, kinda like the bubbles that pop up in Plague Inc? Just my suggestion.

Innocuous Pong by MachWerx 2020-04-26T03:00:22Z

Got to 23! I love the concept of this, especially the 3D! Sometimes when the mode would switch I would lose because suddenly my paddle was all the way on the other side. Aside from that and the mouse issues, it was super fun to play.

Keep summer garden safe! by OooohManGames 2020-04-27T06:01:40Z

this reminds me of a fever dream i once had. but on a more serious note, i really like the gameplay loop and the quick decision making between water, placing new flowers, placing mines, etc. that are needed to keep your garden alive. it was just difficult to play and frustrating at times due to the character controls, at least for myself. the graphics were cute.

Capybaba by matthewi 2020-03-31T21:56:04Z

First game jam :)

Capybaba by matthewi 2020-04-21T02:38:31Z

@antaresvaldemar @grizzliusmaximus and everyone else who can't get past the first tree :) Drop the baby on the left button and then drop the box on either of the buttons so you can pick up the baby again!

Capybaba by matthewi 2020-04-23T03:28:37Z

Just updated the game so it should have less of these pesky bugs!

Keep Him Alive by Bulent Altinay 2020-04-23T04:47:20Z

Sometimes it seemed like I was over the key, and it didn't pick up? I found myself dying a lot just because I had to backtrack. Overall, cool concept!

A tale of Rebirthism by Pomo 2020-04-26T05:36:07Z

SUPER funny! I found the controls pretty difficult for me but the dialogue kept me going :)

Baby Simulator by EdZ123 2020-04-23T04:37:19Z

I think I'm having a stroke, I love it.

Edit: Elite gamer strat is to put the baby in the diaper area and gather the fruit and milk at the rocker area.

DEATH by Rainbows are Fun 2020-04-25T05:59:54Z

My high score is Jack, age 70!

Man Scape by TxL 2020-04-23T04:21:38Z

itch link says couldn't find the page

Purple Thing! by 3LSTMsInATrenchcoat 2020-04-23T04:02:38Z

Super fun but super challenging. I love how your level design teaches the player what to do. I really like this one!

Restartigrade by Ezra Szanton 2020-04-29T06:50:37Z

Super cute! Reminds me of Enough Plumbers. Some minor nitpicks are that I wish I could see the detail of the water bears better but I guess they are supposed to be small, and that the jump sound loops. I love the gameplay because even if you kill a waterbear, you have a bunch more ready to go.

Egg Scramble by bennybig98 2020-04-21T02:21:13Z

This game is super cute! I love the challenge that comes with the choice of conserving heat and shooting. I like the mechanic of being able to recharge the egg, but I found it to difficult to get to another fire between the floaty controls and no i-frames after getting hit by an enemy. Overall, well done!

Son of a Liche by goblinkingmatt 2020-04-23T04:33:16Z

ow oof my bones

Super funny I'm still laughing at "I haveth no eyes sir please be to help skeleton." Clicking and dragging to create obstacles out of thin air is super creative and really fun. The only thing I found off was the direction the missiles went in. Also is there a way to permanently kill the goblins? I found that they kept getting back up.

LD47 — Stuck in a loop

LoopFrog: An Amphibian Odyssey by hgcummings 2020-10-23T19:05:21Z

Super cute take on Frogger!! I really like how the inner circle acts almost like a tutorial before you get to the cars. The fog of war and the ability to rotate were really unique and made the game more fun. Overall super fun and super addictive!!

This Loop (TM) by CJGladback 2020-10-15T05:41:16Z

Definitely has a lot of potential but I think that a whole murder mystery story and its implementation into a game might be too much for a weekend! I loved the concept and how you incorporated the theme. It got a little hard to follow at times, but I still enjoyed it!

8BEATS by DangerBlack 2020-10-23T18:47:47Z

Super super unique and super fun! The only negative I found was that there was a lot to do at once between reading the text at the bottom of the screen, deciding which instruments to use, and collecting the currency (before you can afford the auto collector at least). But overall a really great game!!

Orbeatz by PastelGames 2020-10-23T18:55:34Z

Really cute game!! I like the circular track because it fits with the theme, but it was kind of confusing at first because the arrows moved at different speeds on each ring. Also love the screen shake!

Ghost Jammer by schreibmaschine 2020-10-06T00:00:02Z

LOVE the art style and the unique control scheme (although not obvious at first). It feels so good to get into a rhythm once you get going QQQQQQQQQQQQQQ EEEEEEEEEEEEEE lol

LD48 — Deeper and deeper

Far Side of the Mirror by DDRKirbyISQ 2021-05-05T02:49:07Z

This game is beautiful. The art, the sound, the narrative... Amazing! Thank you so much for making this.

Deepest Sword by Strega 2021-04-27T20:03:31Z

Wow!! This is my favourite game in the game jam so far. Super unique concept and amazingly executed. I loved how the level design was reused with longer sword which forced different strategies to be used. Great job!!! deep.JPG

Infinity Driller by jkniest 2021-05-02T07:13:16Z

Super addicting!!!! This game was super fun and I had to keep trying haha! Really cool that you were able to add a leaderboard to the game

Cave Girl - SUPER AQUA GOTH by nardandas 2021-04-27T03:57:40Z

This game is super fun!! It was a little bit confusing at as to what to do, and what's a powerup and what's an enemy but I eventually figured it out after reading the description. Also, I'm not sure how I died but I'm assuming it was because my moisture was going down? The controls were really fun once I got the hang of them and I wish the earlier levels were a bit more populated so I could test my bow on more enemies! Definitely will play again.

Yawning Fathoms by primitive-concept 2021-05-03T02:32:59Z

This game was super fun! A bit difficult but there was really really funny dialogue.

Disco Inferno by Simon Rahnasto 2021-05-10T19:59:41Z

Super amazing jam submission! Everything was top-notch from the voice acting to the sprites to the variety of guns! And I really like how the guns run out of ammo and you have to go find a new one.

This game is super fun and I LOVED the music :musical_note:

Bun-ker Buster by Ziamor 2021-04-27T04:59:23Z

Cute!! I was wondering what to do and then the radiation started coming down haha

blank by Dreadusa 2021-05-10T19:49:03Z

Amazing game!! It made me feel nostalgic for some reason haha. I really liked the controls and the inclusion of a minimap.

Here's my results after my first run:

Overall a super fun, unique, and well executed game! Well done!

Ski Trip by Rhoka 2021-05-02T06:43:17Z

This game is beautiful! I love the art and sound direction. Super unique game and I can tell a lot of work went into this trip.JPG

Trench Elves by Trevor Hayes 2021-05-10T19:31:05Z

Really unique concept! I really liked the dash mechanic. My only frustration is that sometimes it would respawn me on top of a fish, and at one point it did that 8 times in a row without me being able to do anything haha. Overall a very cool game!!

Catsm by Sigmath Bits 2021-05-02T06:47:45Z

cat.JPG

Super addicting game!!

My only complaint is that sometimes it feels impossible to get by some areas. Maybe a warning at the bottom before the rocks come on screen, or somehow procedurally arranged so that there wouldn't be impossible combinations?

Love the game and love all the meows!!

Dangerous Treasure by MtWhateverest 2021-04-27T20:34:21Z

I found the treasure!! Super atmospheric game :)

Fractal Finder by VD-15 2021-05-07T05:35:12Z

Super unique concept to fit the theme! Love it

Drop.N3T by Dawnscream 2021-04-27T20:12:38Z

Super fun!! I love all the colours and the music and how everything works together. I wish there was an indicator as to whether I could use my jump/double jump because sometimes I wouldn't be able to jump after double jumping. Also a score when the player loses would be awesome so I see how far I got and can compare with my previous attempts! I think I got about 2 minutes in. Overall a super fun game!

Blackout by Frasse 2021-05-03T03:10:36Z

Wow this game was amazing!! Super polished for a game jam! I loved the twist, and then the other twist haha. Super cute how I was able to go back and see everything with the lights on. Also I'm not super great at point and click games and usually have to google to find the solutions, but you designed the game super well and I was able to complete it with just the hints in-game! Overall, a really pretty and well designed game. Well done!

Deep into the Forest by Collin Visser 2021-05-03T02:40:57Z

bird.JPG

This game was really fun!! The bird with the gun was absolutely hilarious to me! The gameplay reminds me of Binding of Isaac. The doors were a bit difficult to see at first, but otherwise super fun!

Go to Heck 💀 by Chris Dirkis 2021-04-27T04:27:57Z

This game was really cool! I literally jumped out of my sea when the first blade (?) enemy dropped down. Maybe I missed it, but I wish there was a way to heal myself. Overall super fun and I'm gonna try to beat my high score!!

The Exit Is Deep by Exiled Burger 2021-04-27T04:51:07Z

I really liked this game!! The character, animations, and audio were all really cute. Sometimes it felt frustrating when I died and I thought I didn't hit the spikes, but I like that there were a lot of checkpoints for when I did die.
