LD25 — You are the Villain (9)

The Legend of Sneak Ninja Kill by vidarn 2012-12-20T11:33:00

Soooooo cooool! ^^ I got to play this on my Gamboy Classic cause I do indeed have a USB cartridge :D
Funny game, but shitty ending indeed :P hahaha

Extinct : Humankind fade in the mist by Benjamin 2012-12-20T10:59:00

Very very good game! ^^ The graphics are amazing, the music is good and the whole feel of the game is wonderful.
The gameplay is very very cool, I loved thinking about possible ways to make the tribe get rid of certain assets or guys. Playing through the game was a very satisfying experience :)
The only thing I didn't understand is one what basis the tribe would choose a certain path, which made the game quite a bit more difficult. But not in a bad way :3

Cure 48 by SonnyBone 2012-12-20T10:44:00

Ooooh, very nice game. The presentation was splendid and the music was great as well. But what I liked most was the message you had at the end :3
I didn't mindlessly kill all the blobs actually, but that was only because I'd played a game like this before (Strangers by JW http://slordig.thepoppenkast.com/) and I felt very bad afterwards about killing kind aliens :(

Little Death Adventure by blackmagic 2012-12-20T10:25:00

Great visuals and lovely music. The gameplay could use a little polish :3 it actually reminded me a lot of a game I once made called Ninja Furenji :P

Trois by haxpor 2012-12-20T10:11:00

Hahahaha, so clumsy :P

Behind Blue Pixels by azurenimbus 2012-12-20T09:58:00

Oooh, very interesting concept. I loved the idea that you were somehow playing a reverse SHMUP, although I guess gameplay wise this could've been explored a bit more.
I really liked the simplicity and style of the graphics, it fit well with atmosphere :3
It took me quite some time figuring out how to defeat the end boss/yourself. Which turned out to be really weird indeed :P
I really liked the music as well. It was very serene and calm which fit the mood like the graphics did :)

Crime in the City by Volute 2012-12-19T16:40:00

Looks like a very fun game, but sadly it appears your webpage won't load :/ I'll try again later :3

Evil Dragon by rubna 2012-12-19T16:37:00

Nice concept :) I really loved the style of the characters and the HUD! The gameplay is interesting but a little slow and it gets difficult really fast :3 Also, when I use the scrolling wheel in my browser (FF) it also scrolls the page :/

Kim Jong-un's Glorious Missile to Liberate the Nations DX by dremelofdeath 2012-12-19T16:32:00

Very solid game! The graphics were really good (especially the landscapes) and the music was superb ^^. Gameplay was kindof twitchy but overall fun :3
I like how rotated sprites are still drawn as bitmaps and not like you often see in flash games as rotated vectorized sprites. How'd you get that to work?

LD24 — Evolution (9)

Oneway by azurenimbus 2012-08-29T09:22:00

Very simple and elegant style to the game, I like that. The music nicely highlights the gameplay and the game's mechanic is rather neat :3

TOWER of Evolution by SiENcE 2012-08-27T14:34:00

Funny concept :) I found it hard to see the spikes though, because of the black and white :/

Evoland by ncannasse 2012-08-27T14:21:00

Really cool game! Very nice use of the theme :3 Maybe you should let the text stay on the screen a little longer when it pops up, I had trouble reading some of the texts and they all seemed too funny to miss :)

Genvaders by celeron55 2012-08-27T14:03:00

I can't play it :/ I get this error:
"UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0x90 in position 2: invalide start byte.
I run windows 7 32bit

Cubevo by NostraDamon 2012-08-27T13:56:00

Really cool! I got a 100% ^^ the game gets very meditative after a while :3

SURVIVE by Ragzouken 2012-08-27T12:51:00

Very neat concept. I found it hard to get any control on the situation, mainly cause in the end all these cells kept cluttering in the middle and instantly sucking away my health :P but I can see how this could turn into a very interesting balanced game :)

IO VUOLE ZEN by Capro 2012-08-27T12:42:00

So yeah... I ragequit! :P

GeomeTree by FireHawkSoftware 2012-08-27T02:28:00

Not much of a game, but pretty interesting tech :3

Monsieur Evolution by monsieur_nez 2012-08-27T02:26:00

Hahaha, that's pretty fucked up (the last guy) :P. Game's not too special, but I had fun nonetheless ^^

LD23 — Tiny World (50)

Housefly by dacap 2012-05-13T23:28:00

Very nice entry! That was a really clever combination of adventure game style puzzling with free movement :3
Great graphics and awesome music! Really cute game! ^^

Five by Five by eventhandler 2012-05-13T23:16:00

What a lovely concept! And a very cute implementation. Especially the upgrading your tiles thing was nice, because it really motivated you to combine the tiles, cause you wanted to see what the upgraded versions looked like ^^
I guess as a puzzle game the randomness of the tile formations you get to work with is maybe a little too high, making the game feel a little unfair or unbalanced.
But overall really good! :D
(pity there was no sound :P)

Bottlecolonies by tcstyle 2012-05-13T23:08:00

Lovely atmosphere. The graphics were really really good and the music was very nice too ^^
The gameplay was interesting, but a little difficult to understand. Not that it was difficult too play, but it took me some time to understand what the smartest moves were and by that time it was too late and my formations were going bad and I couldn't make the first level :( I think the main problem is that the feedback of bad choices is only reflected much later than when you make the bad choices, because it takes quite some moves until the 'villages' grow too close together and only then can you see that you made a mistake before..

Eye Quest by eigenbom 2012-05-13T22:58:00

Weird but cute little puzzle game :D I loved the pollish that went into the graphics and the music. ^^ The overall style is very appealing!
The puzzles weren't too special, but they worked :3 I actually solved the machine puzzle with the 2 buttons at random and I still wonder how :P

Gale Axile by free_napalm 2012-05-13T22:46:00

Very interesting concept! The whole balancing between rewards and movable was a really neat idea :3
The graphics weren't too impressive, but they worked well and we're kind of adorable ^^ I thought the music fit really well :)
My only complaint would be the controls of the planting and building and stuff. The fact that 1 opened the building menu but 0 closed it, seemed counter intuitive. And the whole building/planting interface would've made more sense if it'd been controlled with a mouse, I think :3

Another Kind of World by daandruff 2012-05-13T22:31:00

Very nice atmospheric game. The graphics and audio were spot on! ^^
The bomb mechanic was interesting, but felt a little hard to control as you couldn't influence the force with which you threw the bombs. :3

Microscopia by azurenimbus 2012-05-13T16:03:00

This is a pretty cool game ^^ especially the concept is intriguing. It does, however, not seem very scalable in terms of gameplay. It gets difficult rather fast :P

ANT SURF HERO: THE SURFENING by JigxorAndy 2012-05-02T21:35:00

Very cool game! Loved the whole cooperation with the ant and I felt sad I had to do the last part alone :P
Nice use of the theme. The way you are even smaller than ants was pretty clever ^^
Furthermore, lovely graphics and music and overall great presentation. I lolled at the ending xD

Tiny God wants a Bigger World by Thotep 2012-05-02T21:23:00

Interesting idea and lovely presentation :)
I was impressed by how smooth the land growing and shrinking thing worked! :D
The only thing I couldn't quite understand was how I could stop the evil guys. I managed to win the game by just being really fast, but it seemed like there was nothing you could do to really stop them. Putting water around them was an idea, but that would also destroy valuable land, so I thought that was a little confusing :3

Toad Warrior by SpaceToaster 2012-05-02T21:13:00

Interesting concept and very nice art ^^
Pity the controls didn't work too well for me :/ I guess it was mainly frustrating that you only had control while you were on the ground and not in the air (which makes sense of course), but because the jumping was quite slow it left you feeling very helpless when you made a wrong jump :3

Niña Nueve by Jonathan Whiting 2012-05-02T20:52:00

Lovely lovely lovely game ^^ the presentation was superb and the game's idea was really really neat :D
The only thing that bothered me were the puzzles where you had to get the enemies to move somewhere (kill themselves :P) but it took them really long, especially when they had to go around corners.
But my gawd, you even got boss fights in there! Very finished entry I must say :3

Aether by Danik 2012-05-02T20:40:00

Marvelous entry! I really loved the combination between the two game modes and how the effect of the attacks were visible in the platforming world, that was great ^^ also the destructible terrain, very impressive feat for an LD game :)
Cool game you got there, dude!

There is a Picture by MortisGhost 2012-05-02T20:25:00

Lovely atmosphere because of the interesting graphics and sound ^^ this feels like a very complete entry :3
Pity the gameplay wasn't too interesting :/ but I guess it was more about the story anyway ;)

Recluse by chambers 2012-05-02T20:10:00

Mind blowing concept ^^ very well executed too :)
The gameplay itself was interesting, albeit a little difficult (I thought the ants were strange enemies).
Very nice entry! :D

Snowglobe by olav_st 2012-05-02T19:54:00

Lovely setting and interesting concept :)
The game itself you use a little pollish :3

Alien Punch! by dcolgan 2012-05-02T19:50:00

Interesting concept, I liked how versatile your character was. :3
The only problem I had was that I couldn't see why you would leave the earth. You could just stay there and hold down space and it would seem the most effective way to protect the earth from the aliens.

Astro Break by hulahulahest 2012-04-30T21:55:00

Nice arcade-y feel to this game. :3
The amount of pollish is impressive, feels very complete ^^

Asylum by Orni 2012-04-30T18:49:00

My gawd! This game's amazing! ^^
The graphics worked so well with the insanely freaky mood :D and it fit the theme perfectly! Lovely game :3 add sound to this and it'll be perfect :)

A Giant Step by Quinas 2012-04-30T18:38:00

Pretty cool idea and neat execution. :3
It only seemed to glitch out a little if you put your feet too close together.

! by lifenoodles 2012-04-28T15:09:00

I liked the idea of the rooms and the doors. :)
The gameplay could've had a little more polish :3

Kumiho by Christina Antoinette Neofotistou 2012-04-28T14:49:00

Absolutely gorgeous graphics! And interesting concept with the teleporting. The enemy design was nice and everything felt really slick. Except for the dying :P

Nine tails? Kyuubi! ^^

Tiny World of Bees by tripleVisionGames 2012-04-28T13:58:00

Interesting idea and lovely art :)
The gameplay wasn't really exciting, which was a shame :P but I really liked the bees' bee-like movement :3

Tiny Contamination, well almost by demogia 2012-04-28T13:53:00

Very very cute graphics ^^ neat music too :)
Gameplay wasn't very exciting, but it worked. :3
I guess, the main issue would be the level transitioning. It was a little abrupt at times and you could spawn awfully close to enemies.

Super Orbit Worlds by Jhelle 2012-04-28T13:12:00

Oh wow, pretty neat idea :)
First I was like, mmmm tis is kinda weird and then another planet came and I was like fuck yeah! The multiple planets was a cool feature ^^
The only thing I was wondering about was why you made the planets follow the mouse so jiggly like, why not just absolute positions?

microrail by kirkjerk 2012-04-28T13:07:00

Interesting concept! :)
The puzzles turned out to be pretty hard :P (but I'm not really a puzzler myself :3)

Worlds in Cards by summaky 2012-04-27T20:15:00

Lovely graphics and very interesting concept ^^ I think it would need some more work to make things a little more easy. I guess making the enemies move slower could be possible. And I'd keep tiles selected even if an enemy or player enters, but you just can't switch it at that moment. This way you can plan movement without having to be really fast with your mouse (although I suppose it'd be easier on touch screen anyway :3)

Shoebox World by sanojian 2012-04-27T19:51:00

I ended up with a barren land filled with carcasses and nasty monsters :P but I got all the achievements! ^^

Super Strict Farmer by Benjamin 2012-04-27T19:38:00

My gawd what a great game! Love the graphics, they're absolutely gorgeous ^^ and the whole balance system is brilliant.
This game could definitely be continued after the compo :3

Crysthurl by brxtr 2012-04-27T19:19:00

Lovely style. The mechanics were really interesting albeit a bit strange (why does suicide grant you a new block? xD) but it worked ^^
The only problem I had was throwing a block while it was 'inside' a wall, which would keep it stuck there :/

The Two of Us by ekunkeo 2012-04-27T18:55:00

Amazing art and sound and a lovely idea :)

Pretentious Game by keybol 2012-04-27T18:33:00

Absolutely lovely! ^^ even if you're taking the piss it was still beautiful :P

Save the Tiny World by bugninja 2012-04-27T16:30:00

that's a pretty difficult game you got there :P

GERMS: A Ghost Story by matt 2012-04-27T16:26:00

I really liked the intro movie ^^

The Elves end the Shoemaker by Nora Shishi 2012-04-25T20:08:00

Hahahahaha! This game made me laugh so hard xD
Gorgeous graphics too! ^^

Tiny Ranger by Monkey Armada 2012-04-25T14:30:00

Great graphics :3 the gameplay is a bit dull, but the game itself looks really good ^^

Biological Warfare by Bei 2012-04-25T13:38:00

This game is difficult with a trackpad :P
I tried it in FF first but it didn't work, it did work in Chrome (like you said :3).
Funny little game ^^

Little boy controls american Drone by havchr 2012-04-25T11:42:00

Pretty interesting concept! If I understand it correctly it's about the perspective of a helicopter pilot who has to shoot apparent terrorists, but because he's up so high they seem so small and insignificant, so he doesn't care about them as humans or something and he has to obey orders.
I really like the graphical thing you did with everything going all wobbly :3 and music was neat too :)

Quarks vs Leptons! by soy_yuma 2012-04-24T15:58:00

I have a feeling the game's page isn't loading :/

A Tenthlings Quest by zenasprime 2012-04-24T15:52:00

Lovely graphics! The gameplay was a bit wonky though :P it felt really freaky when you entered the giant through his toe nail xD
And my gawd I love DeadBeatBlast! ^^

Greed Wars by IgnatusZuk 2012-04-24T15:35:00

Loved the visualization of the land you concurred :3

Pro Stew Chugger by Tourgen 2012-04-24T15:25:00

I instantly die when I start the game :(

Planet Gravity by Jens Nolte 2012-04-24T15:23:00

I love how you fly away at the end :3

In Delusion by crippledgames 2012-04-24T15:04:00

What did I just play!? My god that was creepy :P but in a good way :3

Nanofactory by Justin Mullin 2012-04-24T14:40:00

This game has so much personality :3 and the puzzles were pretty neat too. Challenging but not overly difficult ^^

THE TINY PIRATE KNOWS MAGIC by uuav 2012-04-24T14:26:00

That was pretty random xD funny though, and superb graphics :3

subAtomic by MurrayL 2012-04-24T14:17:00

Lovely visual style and great humour ^^

Godzilla Rampage by kasarun 2012-04-24T14:10:00

Dat music :3

Quantum Entanglement by icefallgames 2012-04-24T14:02:00

Pretty cool concept ^^ and I like what you did with the graphics. It got a little too difficult for me in the end, but I'm not really a puzzler anyway :P

Fractality by zaratustra 2012-04-24T06:16:00

Hahaha, I made a game around exactly the same idea (http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-23/?action=preview&uid=11306) ^^
Cool take on it :)

Tiny Island Adventure by AdventureIslands 2012-04-23T13:07:00

Dem graphics! :O I also liked how you designed the 'dungeons' to be played forward and backward. Really great looking game! ^^
The only thing I could suggest is maybe heighten the friction so you float a little less :3
Oh, and I loved the little islands concept :)
