LD48 — Deeper and deeper

Cave Bound by Sn4pi 2021-04-27T21:23:55Z

I like the concept of rappelling down a hole like this and swinging to avoid things or get to new areas. I agree with the other commenter that there's a strong basis for a fun game loop here if you spent some time improving some things.

I think you could improve this by giving the player more of a reason to want the treasure. Such as maybe doors at the bottom of the level that only open when you gather X amount of treasure (maybe even just 1). To prevent someone just holding down the entire time (which is what I did eventually). And I think some of the corridors should be a bit easier to grab the treasure, maybe I suck but I basically always died when going for treasure haha.

I definitely found some bugs too. I clipped outside the level a few times and there were enemies teleporting around the screen or disappearing. Sounds like you knew about those though.

Honestly though, good work! This is an interesting concept and I liked it overall.

Super Debt Speedrun by Stejkrobot 2021-04-27T02:22:31Z

Took me a while to figure out how to play. A controls screen would be greatly appreciated. I eventually figured it out though and could start racking up some debt. I really liked the visuals, the music, and the overall Duke Nukem-like style. Cool stuff!

Hole by MaximeGammaitoni 2021-04-27T13:00:25Z

Fun game. I like the fast-paced gameplay and the DOOM-like aesthetic.

If there was any feedback to give, sometimes the holes were a little finnicky and wouldn't let me drop down even though I beat the level. But I was able to get into them with a little tapping of the keys. And the monsters that shoot the little red projectiles were a little hard for me to see. Not big deals though

blank by Dreadusa 2021-04-27T02:01:33Z

I had a lot of fun with this. The controls were hard to begin with but once I get used to it, it was a ton of fun. The music was really good too. I hated the octopus (in a good way). I think at some part I was able to squeeze out of the level though through a small hole haha.

Seriously though good job!

Heart of Forest by Wieczny 2021-04-27T01:20:58Z

I'll be honest, I got stuck a lot. I wasn't quite sure what to do most of the time. Getting past the first door opening was really hard. I got to the part where I got a knife I think but wasn't quite sure what to do with it?

Not bad, but I would definitely suggest adding a little more instruction next time. The music was cool and the visuals were not bad. Good job overall!

Abyss by Nomppie 2021-04-27T20:55:36Z

Fun game. My best was 852. Good job guys!

Club U.G. by kr0s 2021-04-27T13:41:48Z

This was really cool! Love the Stanley Parable style :-). Has a good level of charm. Good job!

UNIVERSE by QUANDINI 2021-04-27T01:30:46Z

I'm a sucker for retro graphics X-D. Love the fast-paced movement too. Pretty hard, had to play it a few times to beat a few levels. Music is great. All around good job!

EDIT: whoops I accidentally left a review meant for another game

ATOMIC deepness by Kevin Meissner 2021-04-30T13:46:26Z

Good stuff! When the levels got really hard I really got into it. Jumping around the room and dodging like 20 cockroaches at a time. The art is pretty good too.

Some suggestions though: maybe some more sounds and music would help to fill it in a bit more. In some of the levels there were very little walls which caused all of the roaches to aggro immediately, maybe some more geometry would help that. And some of the shadows were so dark sometimes there would be a roach in a shadow that I couldn't see.

Honestly though good work for a 3 day game jam :-)

In Search of Sigmund I by T C 2021-04-27T13:10:49Z

I really enjoyed the enemy that would trick you with the floating red ball haha.

Dig it up, dog! by MaDuShI 2021-04-27T01:32:01Z

I actually had a lot of fun with this. I have a golden retriever which drew me to this. Loved the humor and the gameplay is simple yet satisfying. Good work!

Asterisk by Crychair 2021-04-27T12:52:13Z

This was a lot of fun! All of the audio and voice lines are great. The art is great as well. The gameplay was pretty fun. I really liked the overall direction of this game. Really great job!

Falling Bot by Phobos 2021-04-30T13:33:24Z

Pretty fun game and very unique. The controls were hard to get used to originally but after playing it for a bit I was able to make it all the way to the end. The artwork is great and I really like the dual thrusters mechanics. Very good job with this one!

Into The Depth by Szymon OGD 2021-04-27T02:16:18Z

Fun stuff! The mood was definitely great. The visuals were good. Nice little relaxing game. Goo job!

Deep Hunter by Amaroq 2021-04-28T12:30:42Z

Not a bad game. I like the UI and the general mood (art, audio) and some the scenarios were cool. With some work this could be a really cool game.

There were definitely some bugs though. A few times when I finished a scenario there would be no button to continue. Also I wasn't sure if I was supposed to be imagining things on my own but there were several things like "[Ship Image]" where it would ask me to guess the image and I couldn't because there was no image there. Also the text and some of the UI wasn't lining up properly. I'm guessing because I'm on a 1440p monitor:

All that being said though, this was a good idea. I would think some more audio would help (like a button click sound). But with some work this could be something pretty fun. Overall good job :-)

Fall by Mika314 2021-04-27T21:07:09Z

I had a lot of fun with this. I love that it's a rhythm game I'm sure those are hard to pull off. I loved how its just a ragdoll cat slamming himself into mice. The music was great also. Really good job with this one.

If there was one piece of criticism to give it would be that the music didn't always perfectly sync up. But the game was forgiving enough that it didn't matter much. Awesome work!

LD53 — Delivery

Longship! by japes 2023-05-03T20:36:03Z

Love the concept! Very simple but pretty entertaining and not too difficult. Good job on this!

Missive Defense by foolmoron 2023-05-04T02:27:30Z

I had fun just throwing mail around honestly haha. Simple but simple fun!

TapirBoy by ruthiepee 2023-05-05T14:59:52Z

This is great. I was hoping I saw a Paperboy-like game at some point. Love how goofy it is and the name "Tapirboy". Good job on this! Also hello fellow NYC-er!

Package Panik by Gerolmed 2023-05-02T18:31:19Z

Love the look and how intricate it is for a 72 hours game jam!

Wasabi Whiskers by Beebo Studios 2023-05-02T23:38:04Z

Very solid game! Love the idea of delivering sushi on a conveyor belt. Plenty of levels and combinations to make it interesting. Very good job on this one!

eelBay by Peco 2023-05-02T18:53:50Z

I had a hard time but the mechanics are interesting and do love the concept. Good job!

MailBeats ✉️🎶 by Adam Gaskins 2023-05-04T03:01:57Z

Wow this was a lot of fun! We had an idea for a rhythm game as well but went in another direction. I'm happy someone did it though. Very well done!

Caravan Express by Brigart 2023-05-02T19:21:41Z

It's hard to understand what's going on. Is the Inventory what I am carrying? Why do things pop out of my inventory and then show up in Storage? I'm not really sure what I'm supposed to deliver to where. I think this would benefit from some clearer instructions. But the art is good and it's definitely a delivery game! Good job!

Totally Legal Baby Delivery by Sassages 2023-05-02T18:45:43Z

This is the funniest game I've played yet. I really love the slow-mo camera. And the cutscene to start every level is hillarious. Very well done!

Chain Mail by AdamCYounis 2023-05-04T18:39:26Z

Wow, this was a lot of fun! What a very well built management RPG. I beat it with 3 days left but I made some mistakes and probably could have managed it better. The art and music were great, especially the extra sound effects for successful missions, and the suspenseful music while you wait for the result. Well done!

Thirty Minutes Or Less by Spice Cabinet 2023-05-02T01:24:47Z

Fun and love the music! Love the switch between perspectives too. Awesome job on this one!

Stamp-ede! by Nachodlv 2023-05-02T19:51:06Z

It was a bit hard to "grasp" the mechanics at first. But seems like cool concept overall.

Pizzapocalypse by GERD 2023-05-05T14:52:42Z

Charming game! The voice lines are great and the design of the city is great too. Could always find an alternate path. Love the verticality as well to make it not so static. Bada-bing-bada-boom, Good job!

Fuscus and The Garlic Kin by Buumiii 2023-05-02T20:07:37Z

Fun stuff. I agree with other comments it's good to see where you're jumping down to before you jump. The triple jump helps with that though (jump before you hit the ground to give yourself some time). Good job overall though!

Rattenbiss - Plague delivery by dearkh 2023-05-02T23:13:32Z

Cool concept. I liked the controls and the art and the music all around. Wish it was a bit longer. And it seemed like some of the fires were unavoidable. Obviously a short game jam though! Could be a fun game with some more levels and a little more variety. But overall a good job!

EneRail by Ryabchik 2023-05-02T23:45:05Z

Cute little puzzle game. Enjoyed the aesthetics and the music as well. Good job!

The Blind Pig 🐷 by LittleBlackDog 2023-05-02T19:03:44Z

Interesting concept and I feel like all the assets are cohesive. I enjoy how every playthrough is quick and also different from the last. Good job on this!

The Dirty Inbox by JuanRod707 2023-05-02T20:53:03Z

The art is very good. And I really like the whole UI like it's on a computer or something. The narrative was well written. I kind of ran into the problem though of having to replay and figure things out in a trial and error style though. Either way though good job!

The Dirty Inbox by JuanRod707 2023-05-04T14:48:59Z

@debotheaux Periodic checkpoints would probably help. Maybe after X number of steps you save the game. That being said, this is a common issue (my entry had the same problem haha).

Return to sender by Katya Pavlenko 2023-05-02T23:24:42Z

Creepy! Art and music are great and work well together. Good job!

Purrfect Delivery by Mashiro 2023-05-03T18:45:07Z

I'm giving this a 0 because every time I clicked the Hot Kittens In My Area ad it was a scam! Just kidding :-). I loved the fake ad popups and this such a cool and unique idea. Genuinely enjoyed playing. Good job!

Cow Heist: Space Delivery Mission by mrScom 2023-05-08T18:12:22Z

Funny concept with aliens dragging cows through space! Definitely a bit on the harder side though. I think being able to move a bit more and then having smaller and more dynamic asteroids would have made for more fun gameplay. It's a game jam though and this is solid in general so good job!

Ultimate Package by Triangle Point 2023-05-03T16:41:59Z

Decent game all around. The enemies are a bit hard to deal with. Especially the boss. But a nice little quirky game. Good job!

Dear friend by hmrpf 2023-05-02T20:12:48Z

I really love the art style and music and how they both fit each other. Really beautiful game. It's challenging but not challenging enough that I couldn't beat it. It's basically improved Flappy Bird, in a good way!. Good job on this! One of the better games I've played so far!

GobEx by WeirdBitGames 2023-05-03T16:47:39Z

I love the "goblin stealing packages" concept! Controls and easy and the game is fun. Love the little "yay!" whenever you open a package. Good job!

The Delivering of Christ - The trials of Mary by Trakina 2023-05-02T18:38:48Z

Special attack is fun when you batch everyone up and kill them all in one swoop :-)

Delivery! NYC by Obe Dot 2023-05-03T16:30:31Z

Love the giant derailed D trains.

Postman by DuKe.ua 2023-05-05T14:43:33Z

Hey another Unreal game! This was a nice and chill experience. If I had to give some feedback, maybe showing a timer for the current package in UI would be a good change for better user experience. Also any slight touch of the wall completely stops all your momentum which sometimes feels a little weird. It's a game jam though so I understand why quick and easy just stopping them is fine. Overall though I had fun, good job!

Almost Cold Pizza Delivery Service by LorenzoCgt 2023-05-08T13:17:16Z

The game didn't seem to be working correctly for me. The tiles were all misaligned and the biker was off the screen and wouldn't move. Even when I completed a path. I attached a picture to show it off. Not sure if it's because of my screen size or what. I'll only rate the game based on the things I can see for now. Let me know if this is fixed and I'll give it another shot! Capture.PNG

Almost Cold Pizza Delivery Service by LorenzoCgt 2023-05-09T23:56:56Z

@lorenzocgt No worries. I know how it is. Just wanted to point it out. Seems like a cool game nonetheless :-)

Pizza Inspection & Shipping Service by Harrison Jones 2023-05-05T15:13:20Z

Fun game! Love the Papers Please like concept. For some reason there's no music in the embedded version of the game but it works fine in the downloadable version of the game (not sure if that's a Unity bug?). But anyways music, art, and concept are all great and I had fun playing. And I see what you did with the name (PISS) haha. Great job!

Micromanager by ZombieWalrus 2023-05-04T20:36:50Z

Decent game. I like the available upgrades. Although I think the game got a bit harder after a few speed upgrades since it made it harder to turn on time. These game jams though! good job.

Mic Drop by Glass Robot 2023-05-02T16:49:06Z

I love seeing all the games that went with delivery of words/speech instead of delivering objects. Simple but entertaining and +1 for spreading the word about games haha

Logisticlaw by Cubellia 2023-05-02T19:07:40Z

Really like the control arm mechanic. Had a lot of fun throwing the boxes around. And it was challenging enough to stack the boxes on the truck correctly. Overall good job!

Snail Mail by blast73 2023-05-04T02:32:57Z

Calm, cute, and chill little game. I like the growing list of mechanics instead of just giving them all away in the beginning. Graphics are good as well. Good job!
