LD38 — A Small World

Petty Puny Planet 38 by JorgeGameDev 2017-05-03T12:32:12Z

Nice game guys. I find it funny :D

Chunk World by TheSand 2017-05-05T13:24:40Z

Nice game! Glad to see you'll be continuing to work on that.

Tiny Worlds in Flasks by FiSilva 2017-05-05T13:30:17Z

This is one of the best entries in LD38 so far, at least for me. Despite not having much interaction, and not being a 'game' like we're used to, this is really relaxing and I find enjoyment playing with this tiny worlds sandbox :smile:

Really nice work :smile:

ATLANTIS by OccultOne 2017-05-12T09:36:48Z

Nice game!

Seems like you did a lot of things in this small amount of time, great effort.

Big Foot in Smalltown by urbanhelsing 2017-05-05T09:50:27Z

This concept is definitely new! I liked it for it. Also, the panties camera tech is spot on. ;)

Llama's World by fancy89 2017-05-15T10:06:51Z

Finally tried it. This is different allright, I had quit fun playing it. Nice entry.

The Flip Lands by SalamiChild 2017-05-05T13:05:21Z

Very nice game! Simple but fun.

Proxima Centauri b by Goncalo Monteiro 2017-05-04T23:02:35Z

I'd like to know how gravity works on that cube! :smile: Nice entry!

Planet Desumaton by SiegfriedCroes 2017-05-05T09:53:53Z

Really cute game, I can see this be published on mobile stores, with more game mechanics.

Party in Buntingville by hectigo 2017-05-04T23:13:27Z

This gotta be one the most original games I've tried this LD. Congrats ! :smile:

Puppy's World by Gao Ming 2017-05-03T09:32:24Z

Nice little time waster :smile:

Submersible by kleinzach 2017-05-04T23:11:34Z

I like how you managed to create mood inside the cave.

Koffer by pragmascript 2017-05-12T14:10:26Z

Somehow this is really relaxing. I'd hoped for a few more controls, for instance, time! I'd love to fast forward and really see if I'll hit all spheres. Also audio could bring this to a whole new level.

You could also add visual feedback when you are clicking and dragging the mouse, so you know approximately the direction it's going to spawn.

Nice concept. I like it.

Astromike by mikea 2017-04-25T20:09:36Z

Hi! If you can't progress, its probably because the game is running low? Can you try on lower graphics quality? Also the updated build has better controls.

Thanks for playing :)

Astromike by mikea 2017-05-01T10:39:10Z

Thank you for playing @samurai-spark :D

Astromike by mikea 2017-05-05T08:41:29Z

@jason-kenedy I could do a Linux build, but I have no idea if it's going to work or not :/

@dennyrocketdev Thank you for your kind words. I've updated the game to 1.2 within the 72h time-frame. Although after watching people play, I noticed they had trouble with controls, so the 1.2.1 version is an updated camera angle, so it's clearer which direction you're heading.

The last level was meant to give a bigger challenge, and I had less time to think of the layout, it was done in the last hour of the 48h compo. I know those turrets can't be seen. It's a bad design from my part. Hopefully, it didn't ruin your experience much.

@earthcollapse Thanks for playing, Hitman GO / Lara Croft GO where my main inspiration for this. :)

@rombus Thank you for playing !! Glad it works on Linux, I assume with Wine?

Thank you all for playing :)

Astromike by mikea 2017-05-05T13:52:30Z

Hi @Zorg,

I'm glad you liked it! I've assembled everything with tiles, yes, and manually placed them. They come prepared with nodes, for navigation. I have a plugin to help me place game objects within a grid system ( ProGrids ), but Unity has it's own snapping system too.

Yes, I know there is no ending, there was no time for that, and I like games with no textual information.

If enough people like the game, I might make plans to turn this into a full release. For now, I'll probably release a few more levels. Follow the game on itch.io if you want to get the update, sometime this month. ;)

Astromike by mikea 2017-05-15T10:05:23Z

Thank you, everyone, for giving a little of your time to try out the game! I hope you had fun! I'm trying your games as well as time permits.

Path of the Rabbit by managore 2017-05-05T13:39:06Z

Very nice game. As always the art style of your games is amazing. Had fun playing this! :)

Gravity Wars by highlyinteractive 2017-05-04T23:03:53Z

Gotta love those sound effects. :smile:

One Push Man by harusame 2017-05-04T22:58:51Z

Gotta love the pixel art on this! :)

Planets of Zoltcon by terryg 2017-05-16T15:19:17Z

Cool game!

Cute game! :)

GardenGarden by MatLab 2017-05-05T09:54:50Z

Nice game! Slow paced, and calming.

Tau Zero by sharpcoder 2017-05-04T23:07:46Z

I think I've stumbled in a couple of bugs. I'm not sure how I can have a better score. Maybe more user feedback is needed.

Giant Steps by Lennart Jansson 2017-05-04T22:57:58Z

Got stuck a couple of times but overall I think this can become something fun, with more mechanics in play. ;)

Statera by Kristian David 2017-05-12T14:13:21Z

Nice game! I loved the concept!

UFO GO HOME (VR) by Clavus 2017-05-04T23:08:54Z

VR Games on LD, awesome! Gonna try and rate this, hopefully it works with HTC Vive?

Moped Mayhem by Meenners 2017-05-12T09:32:50Z

Ahah, Fun to play! I wish you could see the direction where you are aiming tho!

Bitverse by klekky 2017-05-05T13:20:55Z

Nice work for your first participation. And yes, questionable to have to kill people to get fuel. Keep on working your game design skills :smile:

Murder Mitosis by _for_science 2017-05-16T15:24:51Z

Really nice idea! Love the concept and the gameplay is Fun. :) Nice entry

Planet Bash by killerkun 2017-05-04T22:39:04Z

Certainly a different take on the theme.. I like the art.

A Bombtastic World by dennyrocketdev 2017-05-04T22:41:20Z

Very cool puzzle game. Love the mood and audio.

Leucos by Harry Alissavakis 2017-05-12T14:11:19Z

Fun little game! But there is too much red for me! :smile:

Small World a Flask by Drag0mir 2017-05-05T13:28:20Z

Had trouble finding out what to do, and if the things that I did were good or bad.

Should have a better explanation of controls and objectives, as well as feedback to the player, in order to guide them towards the objective/goal.

Skylands by huminaboz 2017-05-04T23:10:18Z

Love the art style. :D

Booster's Day Out by paulstraw 2017-05-12T14:01:59Z

Nice little sandbox game! I enjoyed it quite a lot :)

Cartography by Zorg 2017-05-04T22:55:42Z

Nice work! Love the theme.

K.R.A.B.S. by limejuice123 2017-05-05T13:44:26Z

Different style of game, but I like it nonetheless :)

Lunar Depot 38 by eevee 2017-05-04T23:00:08Z

Awesome job! Love the art style.

Destroy The Dome by SvartTand 2017-05-04T23:01:16Z

Pretty cool game there!

Song of Fungus by DGSpitzer 2017-05-03T09:27:37Z

Very cool game. Love the aesthetics

My first entry: Planet Invaders by Inworks 2017-05-04T23:04:57Z

Nice little time waster. Well done for 48h.

Den by La mecanique du plastique 2017-05-05T08:34:27Z

A Nice atmospheric game, the mood, and audio are cool. I have problems with controls tho, I don't like them much, but it doesn't compromise too much my experience. Nice game overall :)

Rock Hammer by Airman4 2017-05-05T08:27:07Z

Nice concept. Should have more mechanics tho, it becomes repetitive too quickly.

S.A.V.E.🐣 by Noval33t 2017-05-05T13:37:45Z

Really like this game! Love the art style and 'dark humor'?

Life by Kazike 2017-05-12T08:54:46Z

Nice game! Really makes you think about your priorities in life.

Gravity Architect (Vive, Oculus, and Daydream only) by NathanSculptrVR 2017-05-04T20:46:50Z

Nice to see a VR game! Could have moved the Universe with Both Hands instead of moving the player though. Movement is slow. :smile:

eiland by rubna 2017-05-05T13:17:15Z

Nice and relaxing. Great work.!

Cubical by earthcollapse 2017-05-04T23:00:52Z

Took me a while to get used to the controls and how it should be played, but a after a couple of tries I had fun! :) nice concept.
