LD32 — An Unconventional Weapon

Dusk by nov1kk 2015-04-28T02:18:00

Amazing concept. This would be an awesome full release if more time was given to it. :)

LD33 — You are the Monster

Money Monster Millionaire by Potato & Taco 2015-08-25T21:54:00

This was alright. I kept getting the same message over and over again, but I know it was just the randomiser choosing it over and over again. I think if there was more of a goal the game and it's decisions it gives you would be more interesting. The theme is interpreted alright through this game.

You Monster! by Jared Sartin 2015-08-26T00:57:00

Fun, yes. It didn't quite fit in with the theme, though I can see how it tries to. It's a good jumping game, but I don't see how it really ties into the theme.

Saucer by CodeNMore 2015-08-26T00:59:00

This is a nice game! I love that you can pick up basically anything. it makes me chuckle in some weird way when the guys are shooting and I can just pick them up and go "nope!". Very nicely done.

Don't Leave Me by Hamsternator 2015-08-26T00:33:00

This game was interesting. I think it has potential, but it was so limited. I think if you had more dynamic options or more things to do at least the game would become more interesting. Still a good entry.

Village Mayhem by Windmill Games 2015-08-25T21:51:00

This game is very well made. It's very polished, the graphics are incredible for such a short time frame, and the gameplay is superb. I very much enjoyed it. :)

Humon by Lafolie 2015-09-13T23:36:00

The game was alright. I found some problems with the controls being a little too stiff but it was a solid entry otherwise.

uZombie by HayManMarc 2015-08-26T00:11:00

After a while I lost all control of my character. I couldn't move the dude, which was sad. :\ But the game is nice anyways. Nice concept and pretty well executed. :)

R-ADIUS by MrTwister 2015-08-25T21:40:00

This game is very nice! It took me a moment to understand the gameplay, but it was literally only a moment. I love the graphics and the sounds; they're great!

Shark Swimulator by Karai17 2015-09-05T22:12:00

This game is very well made, especially when using Love3D. Very nice work!

ClickBait - Blogger Simulator by BtheDestroyer 2015-08-26T00:38:00

Though I can see where it was going, I couldn't see how this blog made me amonster, unless I just didn't become evil enough. :P The gameplay is interesting, and the graphics looking like they are is pretty cool. Overall, a nice entry.

Benched by fromfiregames 2015-08-26T21:55:00

The game is definitely interesting. I love the graphics.

Trickers by Dege 2015-08-26T21:57:00

As said before some telling of how well you're doing would be nice. Otherwise, it was alright.

Lardum by Grahhhhh 2015-09-03T01:09:00

I love how depending on where you enter actually changes the story! It's a nice little mechanic that got me playing over and over again to see how the game would play out!
Very nice entry!

YOU MONSTER!! by XAND 2015-08-24T04:10:00

Thanks for all the positive feedback!
It's making my day!!

To Phil; I think you make valid points and I'll update the itch.io release of the game with further developments.

YOU MONSTER!! by XAND 2015-08-24T21:39:00

Not entirely a true story

YOU MONSTER!! by XAND 2015-08-25T00:47:00

Ah, looks like I forgot to reset the note counter if you play again. Pardon that

YOU MONSTER!! by XAND 2015-08-25T23:36:00

I think I'm going to update this game and put the updated version on itch.io. If anyone's interested. :P

Museum City Boat by geckojsc 2015-08-26T00:47:00

The game is very well made. The camera especially. But the gameplay, artstyle, and sounds are adorable. Very nice entry. :)

kid.isCaptured by RobotMeal 2015-08-26T00:09:00

The game is nice. The graphics make it a little hard to see the character, but overall, a nice game. :)

Drama in Space by Teekeks 2015-08-26T00:06:00

This game was really good. The physics were nice and the gameplay was good as well. Nice job!

Loch Ness by gcrsaldanha 2015-08-26T02:06:00

This is interesting. I like it. :)

Necro Monster by Solchain 2015-08-26T05:14:00

The gameplay is pretty nice. The graphics are good, and the audio is alright. Overall, a nice game. :)

Westboro Binge by TeamPretty 2015-08-26T17:41:00

Took me a minute to get the jokes, but I got it. The game becomes too difficult to complete too fast, but for an LD it's not bad.

Delusion by Meme Teme 2015-08-29T04:19:00

The game was alright. I loved the animations. There were a few collision issues that made the game a little more frustrating to play, and my download had some weird bugs with it. After I lost the first time, mice would jitter and bounce backwards, and the doctors didn't spawn the second time round. Still, a nice entry with great graphics.

Business Demon by LeReveur 2015-08-26T00:50:00

The game was alright, especially for a LD. The UI was a bit messy but I figured it out. The game was a little too easy for my sense, but it is an okay entry.

Motherflipin' T-Rex! by mantis 2015-08-26T00:44:00

This... is fantastic! Though the sounds are kinda different, they add to the humor of the game, and the game plays phenominally and the controls are intuitive. Very nice. :)

LD34 — Two Button Controls / Growing

PSYCHOTENNIS by pkenney 2015-12-14T20:23:00

This is one of the best entries I've seen so far. I love the concept; simple, yet addicting and fun! It's like if Pong and Atari breakout had a baby, and it's fantastic.

Fabulous job!

Concrete Jungle by Miltage 2016-01-03T21:21:00

Very fun game! Awesome feel to the controls.

FEED ME! by Transmit 2015-12-14T20:14:00

Great spin on a snake-like concept. Reminds me of those weird worm things in Terarria.

One thing I have: It seems to easy to be able to eat the bugs without them touching the head, meaning I get dots added to my body even if my body touches them.

Fantastic entry. :)

Chaintanks by ProjectX593 2015-12-19T00:18:00

Fantastic!

Breathe by Galvesmash 2015-12-15T00:06:00

Very nice game! Polish was awesome, and it created an awesome... feel to play.

INFERNO by Lukbebalduke 2015-12-14T21:32:00

I'm jealous. This game is amazing. Simple concept portrayed with amazing graphics and awesome controls. You did an exceptional job with this. Congrats!

S.E.N.T.I.N.E.L. by rnlf 2015-12-20T18:41:00

Awesome entry!

And thanks for the web version of my game!

Upgrade! by Mettra 2015-12-17T03:07:00

This is an awesome entry! As another fellow LOVE user, you did a fantastic job. I love the music in between upgrades. It gets me jammin every time. :)

Parse The Sky by dustyroom 2016-01-03T05:12:00

One of the best looking games I've seen.

Reap by managore 2015-12-17T03:41:00

One of the best entries I've seen.

I Am Tree by AthenaOfDelphi 2015-12-14T23:09:00

Fun. Took a moment to understand how the game works, but it was a fun game. Good job!

Ep by Blagino 2015-12-14T20:09:00

Simple fun.

Very good entry!

The Super Bros (that are not Brothers!) by Xinelu 2015-12-15T01:47:00

Nice concept, and good job being able to manage the camera with two characters. Congrats!

SvardBjorn by Windmill Games 2015-12-15T01:57:00

Fantastic entry. Graphics are great, audio and sound effects really add to the experience. The gameplay is nice and fluid and lots of fun to play! Nice job!

Panball by gillenew 2015-12-15T00:01:00

Fun, cute game. Simple concept, but the polish made it much more interesting and unique. Good job!

Stem by Yamzho 2015-12-14T20:18:00

I would have loved to run this, but every time I try to play it, it gives me a Java exception. :\

Breathing Dark by shrapx 2015-12-17T01:30:00

Nice job! There were a few collision glitches here and there but it didn't take away from the game that much. Very nice job!

Grab&LetGo by GGraca 2015-12-16T03:39:00

Interesting concept. Nice job!

Shoot Or Don't Shoot by Coomzy 2015-12-14T20:25:00

Good entry; took me a second to figure out the controls, but that's my fault. Haha. Very nice job!

Barber Chop by AngrySquirrels 2015-12-14T22:57:00

Fantastic! The art was awesome and it had a lovely, lighthearted feel to it. Well done!

Grunnist by Alpenter 2015-12-14T23:56:00

Adorable. Lovely. Fantastic. Fun. Other words that mean "you did an awesome job and you should be proud, congratulations!".

Grow by Melusine 2015-12-14T20:38:00

Cute entry. Graphics were nice. Good job!

There's No Going Back by XAND 2015-12-14T11:44:00

@Crigs Wow, thanks for pointing that out. I had to fix level 5 once already when my friend was playing it and got trapped. I think fixing that doesn't go against compo rules. If not, thanks for making it public that the level is slightly buggered. :P

There's No Going Back by XAND 2015-12-17T21:15:00

@pkenny Thanks!

There's No Going Back by XAND 2016-01-02T00:13:00

@ragnta, The Web version is a bit glitchy. Someone built it for me, and I included it for people on Mac. Some issues include music not playing (one of the reasons I included a link to the soundtrack), and some keybinds failing, like the level editor's keybinds.

Thanks for playing!

Millenium Fist by AzureAspect 2015-12-14T20:16:00

Good concept, I think it could have been expanded maybe with a couple more enemies. If there were any, the game didn't take me to them.

Graphics were cool, I liked them

Nice job!

Steve can't jump by ubgamerpro 2015-12-31T22:38:00

Nice game! The jumping pads remind me of the boost pads in my game. Very nice work!

Line/Dash by Eingya 2015-12-15T00:24:00

Fantastic job! The concept was simple but done very well! I love this!

Buttons Rescue by Quique 2015-12-14T20:36:00

Cute entry. Simple, a little odd to have to jump with the right and left key press, but it was very well put together.

Snowman's Christmas by beetracks 2015-12-17T03:02:00

I love this game. The music is nice, the graphics are nice, the concept is nice; everything is nice. Fantastic job!

Safe or Sorry by JimmothySanchez 2015-12-14T23:51:00

Very pretty, and the audio was nice. It would have instructions in the game, and sometimes when you lose the text goes off screen and becomes hard to read. Other than that, the game is great. Good job!

Grow Big and Go Home by MikeTsunami 2015-12-15T00:10:00

Nice job!

Cook!!! I'm Hungry!!! by WolvesOfOdin 2015-12-14T20:30:00

Good job on your first entry!
I have a couple things I noticed:
You have a couple of typos, like on the main menu, you have "objives" instead of "objectives". Not a big deal, just something to look out for.

I also noticed jump and other controls weren't too responsive at times, which made it much more difficult to play the game.

Getting past that, the game turned a simple concept into a nice LD project.

Jane and the Sugar Cane by gabriel_pnc 2015-12-14T20:34:00

The game didn't run too well for me; I only averaged 10fps on the web and 15 on the download, which seemed bit strange, since I have a 4GB nvidia graphics card. Probably something on my end.

The game's concept was nice, and you did a good job on it!

Dude On Fire by voca 2015-12-17T01:26:00

Adorable game, though the field of view is a little too small for my liking, however the game is still fun to play. Nice job!

Rocketship Rescue by Rose 2015-12-15T01:44:00

This game is very cute. I love the characters. Very nice job!

LD35 — Shapeshift

Getting shifty by Ithildin 2016-04-18T14:12:00

Very nice effects, great feeling gameplay. Awesome job.

Block 1 by crazyrems 2016-04-18T03:16:00

I envy this artstyle. Blows my compo entry out of the water. Very well done.

Bortman by Rscar 2016-04-18T02:17:00

I would love to play it, but the map disappears on me after moving. I wont rate it as I can't play it.

Operation SHIFT by SiM2SiM 2016-04-18T02:36:00

Very well done!

CubeShift by JangoBrick 2016-04-18T02:35:00

Very clean, polished game. I love it. :)

Shifty Shapey by pixelguff 2016-04-18T03:03:00

Very very nice. It was much easier on a controller than keyboard and mouse.

UPSHIFT by Jessica Hayley 2016-04-18T00:38:00

I like it, Id suggest some instructions so people know how to play right off the bat. :)

Flames and Shifting by Jordan 2016-04-18T02:21:00

Very nice game. Graphics were good and the audio was nice.

Pacifist Hill by wavertron 2016-04-18T03:18:00

Good entry. I like it. :)

Basebird by dvdfu 2016-04-19T04:49:00

Woo! More Love2D. Awesome entry!

Shape Shifter by Reisen 2016-04-18T03:23:00

I did not wake up today and say to myself "I will play a game about shitting shapes". But here I am.

The Void Walker by Ethan Allwood 2016-04-18T03:32:00

Very good, had a couple of weird collision issues, but other than that I saw no issues.

ShmupShifter by TerraCottaFrog 2016-04-18T02:31:00

Very fun. It did seem a bit unfair that I could just spam ZXC but I think that was intended. Very nice!

Infinite Vertices by CoderCameron 2016-04-18T02:59:00

That was awesome. Great work. :)

ShapeGrid by matiasbontempo 2016-04-18T03:12:00

Very nice, however my game ended up crashing due to an unset value error or something like that, the error message was not helpful. Very nice.

Reptile Politik by aegypticus 2016-04-18T02:19:00

Hey, another Love2D Programmer! I made mine in Love2d. :)

Cute little game. Took me a sec to figure out what was going on, but I mean that literally - just a sec. Good job. :)

Black Heart by luquio 2016-04-18T03:28:00

That is one of the most awesome-est graphics I've seen on a compo entry. Very nice.

Shapeshift by coldman 2016-04-18T02:26:00

Good "game", I guess. I feel that this could have used a little more time, but for what it is, it is really nice!

LD36 — Ancient Technology

THE BOX by ReboundGames 2016-08-29T17:15:00

The puzzles were a bit difficult, but that's because I'm dumb. Awesome game. :)

The Beat Device by jplur 2016-08-29T15:23:00

That's a pretty interesting idea. I like it.

Search Treasure By Amine Tcherak by Amine Tcherak 2016-08-29T14:51:00

For a first game, it's not bad. Controls are a little weird feeling (you slide a lot, like you're on an ice rink). Still, good work. :)

No Pyramid's Sky by DiegoCTorguet 2016-08-29T15:02:00

Graphics are nice, gameplay is nice, everything is nice. Good job. :)

SUNWARD by graebor 2016-08-29T17:29:00

This game is one of the best looking, feeling, and sounding LD games I've ever played. Very nice job. You guys should celebrate.

Wish You Were Here by Nanolotl 2016-08-29T14:59:00

This game is absolutely adorable. Graphic style I wish to achieve. What engine/toolset did you use for this? Good on you guys.

It Started Out With A Brick by peterthehe 2016-08-29T14:45:00

The game was pretty cute. Very nice work.

The Stones of Kelzi by XAND 2016-08-31T06:54:00

@Jelinib Thanks for the review! I did have to leave out a few things, especially the darkness thing, but it's actually quite gross looking without the graphical cover. :)

Artifact Hunter by CMLSC 2016-08-29T17:21:00

This game was quite frustratingly hard. The first level is deceptively easy. Get ready for the game to get knocked into 12th gear after that.
