I played it. Yeah I got blocked by the hooks. =(
Overall, I thought it was a pretty cool game, but I dunno about how well the theme fit in. The sounds and everything were a bit too happy and bright. I think if everything was darker, it might create a better mood for the theme.
Didn't rate, the game is unplayable for me. The moment I press play, the screen turns orange.
Neither version works for me
Such a cool idea for a game!
Very awesome game. Is the screen always stuck at that size though? Seems a bit big for default. Cool ideas and well executed.
I jumped everytime one spawned on me
Very cool game. A bit unforgiving though. I pretty much never died to lava but always died cause I barely touched the side of the wall... Other than that, GREAT game!
Very awesome game. True to the theme, and it does it well.
Awesome game
Very cool game. Hard to give a lot of points cause it was so short, and nothing much happened, but the potential to make a really cool game is here!
Reminds me of a Blendo games game. Very nice.
I don't know if I am just an idiot, but I had difficulty doing simple things like just moving around....
Cool concept, but a bit difficult to play
Very funny game. Felt a bit repetitive after awhile, and I didn't feel any incentive too keep trying. But otherwise, really funny game!
Interesting game, very artistic.
Very cool idea to do that. Fun game, and really clever.
Where are the potatoes? xD
Very fun game. Really enjoyed it.
Definitely based off captain forever. Done so very well, and simplified it. Fun game.
Simple game, pretty fun
Moving around felt difficult, I kept getting stuck on ledges and invisible things. Also, a bit confused what was going on in the boss part.
Cool game, a bit overwhelming looking for a minimalistic game
Great game. Kept me playing for quite awhile.
Either it doesn't load or you have to register to play (which would be crappy >=( )
Cool mechanics, a bit confused about what to do though...
My favourite entry by far. REALLY good job.
Pretty interesting game. Hard!
Download doesn't work for me....? It is just a blank page.
VERY funny game. Loved it.
I don't think it loaded properly for me. I just get a grey screen until I die.
Haha, very cool.
Awesome game. I like the fast paced factor. Feels nice and actiony. About your question in regards to my game, I might expand on it. Maybe if people request it.
Nice graphics. Difficult game to figure out even with the instructons.
Haha. Simple, but awesome. Exactly what you want a game to be.
Not sure what I was meant to be doing, but I went through a number of gates.
I loved the wall grab and flip. Decent feeling movement. Didn't much like the art though. Love the random picking of levels.
The game got me stressed out. I couldn't get far into the game. Just ended up shooting myself in the head.
Frustrating. Sometimes felt impossible. Fun though.
Decent game. Man... the controls were awful. In the end I just used the shield ship to block everything by tapping space repeatedly and won.
Awesome game. Reminded me of a friendlier and more complete version of mine. The perfect word to describe it is "Solid".
The graphics really shine here. :D
Awesome game. Really enjoyed it. Maybe the character could have been done better, but other than that, no compaints.
Awesome game. I don't understand the farting princess. Other than that, really fun and simple game. Played it for quite awhile.
How does it follow the theme? You get only one handicap? It was a fun little thing to try out though. I almost got the 1/2 time one.
So simple, so great. Absolutely love this game. I think the link to the theme is a bit weak, but the game itself is awesome.
I... Don't get it....
I loved this game. So simple, but a lot of content in it. I didn't like the character art, but all the other art was great.
Cool game. I had trouble aiming with the arrow, but I loved exploring the map and finding the secret hearts around.
Good start. Try to make something yourself!!
The screenshots look great, but the download link seems to be broken?
@MRvanderPants Hmm... Strange. I can't connect to your website at all. Maybe because I am in Singapore? I'll try again in a few hours.
This was very interesting. I liked how it is pretty easy to pick up, but you have to be quite strategic with prioritising your time if you actually want to do well. In the end, time was the biggest resource, so using any free time was very important. Awesome game.
Movement was a bit slow for my liking, but the game definitely works. :)
Instructions were very hard to follow. Looks like it would have been a cool game if I understood it.
Haha fun game. Silly and simple. Perfect for LD.
Cool game. The movement wasn't quite right, but other than that, I love the effects.
Awesome game. Great gameplay and everything. My only complaint is that the jump doesn't feel nice.
Very awesome game. Probably one of the best I've played so far.
Cool game. I got stuck though.
Awesome game. I loved the graphics. I was using the keyboard to control the ship for ages, which was really confusing. Using the mouse instantly made the game feel better.
Couldn't run the game. The installer crashed my explorer...
Doesn't launch for me too. I double click the icon, and absolutely nothing happens.
Cool game. Wasn't really that fun in the end though. Very numbery.
Awesome game. I can cheat a bit by going all the way right. Also.. I pressed "E" while trying the controls and immediately regretted that decision.
Haha, great game. I didn't understand it straight away. I can't tell how to tactically do better. I will admit I played it a few times out of curiosity. I love the aesthetic overall.
Awesome first attempt at LD!
How does this fit the theme? Some cool physics going on, but other than that, it's bit hard.
It's awesome for such a small game. Managed to buy one of those guys to shoot with me, but keep missing the cars.
The christmas theme really made this game. Simplest gameplay possible, but executed to near perfection.
Interesting concept, but not that well executed. In the end I didn't really care much for any of the characters at all.
Awesome game. The networking really made it come alive. If people are having trouble loading it, just try to give it time. Leave it for awhile. I think it waits for the next match to start you.
Neat little game. No real challenge, but it was a cute story.
Amazing game. Everything about it was so beautiful. The music is wonderful too. It took way too long to grow the tree, but was very nice and relaxing.
I didn't get it either xD
Very awesome game. Love both the gameplay and the aesthetic. Movement feels very weird though. Very slow. Feels like I am walking through water, but being launched in the air with jump. Also, I keep accidentally doing an extra jump when I land. Should have some timer to stop you from repetitively jumping by holding space.
Cool little game
Cool little game.
Haha funny game. What REALLY REALLY bugged me was only being able to move in one direction at a time.
Cool game. Screen could have been bigger. Played through lots of levels!
Haha for such a simple game, I thought it was pretty interesting and funny.
Cool little game. I don't get how it relates to the theme though.
Awesome game. I really liked the idea, but movement felt a bit too slow.
Cool game. Once you've learnt how it works though, it becomes easy.
Awesome game. Very innovative to use Chinese characters to represent things.
As said before. Intro was long and unskippable. It is luck because to us, it might as well be random.
I could walk... and there was a tree. That's about it.
I don't understand. How do I run the game? When I double click Game.exe, an asteroids type game loads up. I move around using arrows and use space to try to shoot a dot.
oops, my bad. I was opening the wrong file. When I try to open yours, it says it isn't a valid win32 app. I'll try again on my home computer later.
Awesome game. I played through the whole thing. The running felt a bit iffy. After the third level, I realised the best tactic is to sprint left and right while shooting cause they can't aim at you very well. Again, awesome awesome game.
Hey. Awesome game! Really simple, but you get a lovely feeling from playing it. By the way, I edited my game slightly so that you can also use arrow keys instead of WSAD. I completely forgot about that. Hope you try my game out again with functioning controls. Thanks!
Fantastic game. Pretty simple, but it turned out fantastic. Loved it.
Funny game. Not a lot of content, but very polished for what it is.
My highest rated game at the moment. Really fun. Getting high speeds felt amazing. wish there was a bit more space to play around at high speeds.
Hilarious game. I love how you write such dramatic monologues about everything.
Funny "game". :D
Cool game. Was good considering it was made in 48 hours.
Absolutely awesome game. The movement was a tiny tiny bit too slow for my liking, but the game itself was amazing. Really cool how much content you got in. I love how you can get through the game using different powers. Might have been cool if you could pick up the different powers, but I guess that ruins the theme.
Awesome game. Took a few goes to understand, but pretty fun to watch.
It's awesome you got a game made. The movement and jumping feels awful, but the levels are cool, and it was great use of the theme.
Awesome art. Really carried the game. It was really well done, but way too difficult! Checkpoints to start at the boss fight would be nice instead of having to roll all the way back.
Yeah man. I wish I had time to make art for the level, and some polish like death animations for the elves. I guess it's standard LD stuff to run out of time. xD
Awesome game. I loved everything about it except perhaps the combat. I think it would have been better if the combat space was smaller. It took forever to get shots on him.
Awesome game. Didn't work on web for me, but the chrome app worked fine. I love the art. Wish the jump was a little higher.
Great mood set up. Wish there was a bit more gameplay, but I love the controls of the drill, and the procedural generation.
Haha! Awesome game! Really great. Only complaint is that enemies and bullets are too small. It was a bit hard to aim. I guess the character art didn't match the surrounding too. Other than that, the camera effects like the zoom and screen shake were great.
That was.... dark. Yet somehow it really intrigued me. I'm not sure I'll ever understand it... xD
Awesome game. A bit annoying that it doesn't shoot the direction you are moving. while it does allow you to kite, there isn't much space for it, and they die fast anyway.
Great execution of a simple concept. I know it kinda defeats the purpose of the game, but a neat trick I found was to drop pellets in the middle at a slow and constant rate. This causes them to all converge onto one pixel and mate a lot.
I love the simple gameplay, aesthetic and polish. It worked really well together. I would have maybe liked more space, and also could do without that loud noise when you take damage.
The music was great. A slightly anti climactic ending though.
Cool game. I really liked the keyboard control as opposed to having to click the various options.
Awesome. Love text adventures. It was a bit disorienting without any details or information to remember rooms by. Strangely moody for such a game.
Gameplay kinda confused me a little I have to be honest. But I love the interpretation of the theme, and the vibrant colours.
Fantastic work. I love the melon cat. Shame I had to focus on hitting keys, I didn't get the appreciate the art of the obstacles. I barely remember what they were. Great music, well done!
Weird. At one point, I got spawned inside a wall and could only move along it.
Awesome entry. I figured out the trick in the end. Turn 1 move toward the kraken. Turn 2, move again so that it is in a line above you, then fire wave thingy and hope to kill it. From there it is just running as far as you can, while shooting at them when you have the chance. Also, fire wave thingy when you are far away from them! Played it for awhile to figure that out. From the perks menu, it seems like the game was set up for much more! Will look out in the future.
Great mood. The gameplay was lacking, but considering everything, the game still managed to evoke some feeling of serenity with the smooth controls and lovely music.
wat? This was great. I didn't understand a lot of it, but great anyway.
Awesome game. Graphics were horrible for the game, but the game was surprisingly fun. I managed to figure out a technique. You generally want to stay just far enough away that bullets hit him, and stand in the middle shooting as he goes past you.
Fun game here. Took awhile to understand the mechanics, but I managed to get underground for awhile.
The graphics put me off a bit at first, but stepping back from that, the game actually has a lot of content. The music is great, the exploration is great, there is a lot of variety, and upgrades are fun. Great game.
Great art. The aesthetic of everything worked together well, and there is quite a lot of detail if you look at it as a whole. Music was a little bit on the annoying side on it's own, but with the gameplay and graphics it does set up the mood.
Great entry. Reminds me of a game I played ages ago.
Awesome game. The rules are a bit hard to understand, but it gets fun once you learn them.
Cool entry. I managed to clone my guy, and run around with two of them.
Haha, this is awesome. I love the music and the feel to digging. I think some animations of the ground disappearing would have made a world of difference to the feel of the game.
Cool game. Took me awhile to understand that not all computers have secrets.
Cool start. Great for 5 hours.
Haha, I love the business suit and flip flops.
Nice entry. I sometimes had impossible places where the whole area was blocked. Quite unlucky. haha :/
Cool game. The music randomly got loud? Weird choice of controls too. Why mouse click if the aiming isnt mouse based? Still fun though!
Awesome game. Feels a lot like papers please, but to be honest, I think this has a better premise to deliver the same message.
Fantastic use of sound. I wish there were a different sound for collisions from different directions. On the narrow spaces, it's hard to tell if I am too close to the top or bottom. Fantastic art work.
Hey, thanks for trying my game. Sorry about the performance issues. I removed all the particle effects, water effects, clouds etc on the low quality version to get it working on more computers. I was hoping you might be willing to try it again? Thanks!
Awesome. Felt great. I bet it could be much more with some time. Fun when they try to swim away, and you need to corner them.

Cool game. Reminds me of motherload. Starts off a bit slow, especially when trying to get enough gold. Could have been paced a bit faster.
Awesome game. I love the idea of not expanding too quickly, making sure you have enough food before building more.
Cool game. The gameplay was lacking as it was more of just whether you have patience or not, but the strong point in this game was the mood created by the breathing and visibility. Would love to have seen some more variety in the ocean like some plants or different coloured fish.
Great game. I love how many levels there were, and the variety of things that slowly get introduced.
The visuals of the overlay is cool. The mechanic is quite interesting too, but is too permanent.
Man, I really want an occulus rift now...
Damn, idk why but when I try to play it, it says "WebGL is not supported". I think it's a problem with my browser. I'll try to fix that.
Also, about my game, if you had trouble controlling the worlds with the WASD keys, I think you might want to try the arrow keys. That way you can use the 1, 2, 3 keys with your other hand. Thanks! :D
It took me AGESSS to get into the game. But I played it for a LOT longer than I anticipated. If you fancied this up, nicer graphics, randomized worlds, more balanced gameplay and maybe a bit of character for the factions I would totally pay money for it.
Cool game. The controls were more complicated than they needed to be, but love the character art.
Fantastic game. So simple yet so challenging.
Fantastic entry. Like others have said, it's hard to wrap your head around the gravity. I reckon because you suddenly get flung in another direction so fast. Could do with some slower acceleration for falling. Anyways, great stuff!
Hahaha this game is fantastic. Yet another game where technically simple graphics can be so aesthetically pleasing. It's clear that you really wanted the theme to be strength in numbers, but connected worlds works too. Really fun. Managed to beat it in about 10 mins.
Awesome game. It was annoying that you go so far back when you die, but I love the story elements and dialogue.
This was so insane. Finished it with the help of google (sorry my memory of planets is poor). That was really really creative. So clever. Also connected worlds in multiple ways.
Still don't know if the game is winnable, but I played it for ages! I got into a good pattern. Have 1 person on harpoons, 2 people alternating for the light for quick refills.
Haha awesome stuff. I loved the mood of the whole thing and the randomised tiles. Welcome to the LD community, doesn't it feel great?
Some good programming here. The game lacks a bit of motivation, and gets boring quite fast. The amount of work done here is amazing though.
Haha awesome game. Took me awhile to figure out the auto landing and planet leaving mechanic. That had me confused! Also I felt a lack of motivation throughout, but the UI and the gameplay is awesome. My fav entry from you guys so far!
Great game. Switching between worlds took a bit too long in my opinion. But really fun when you get the hang of it.
Had to play both. Noticed a cheat. If I lie down at some point, I can lie down forever and not get hit by anythign.
Awesome game. I managed to get to the level where you need to collect 16. Quite addictive, really fun.
Haha hilarious. Took awhile to get used to, but when you get into the flow of it you can do pretty well. Awesome.
Must admit, I didn't entirely understand the win/lose conditions. Ended up just clicking away at all the planets I could see. I like the physics of the connected worlds though!
That was really quite fantastic. The puzzles require some thinking as well as a bit of trial and error. Sometimes it was annoying that you had to restart all the way if you misaim a bomb, but still very fun. The graphics are simple and clean, but powerful and aesthetically very pleasing.
Fantastic entry. Close to perfect. I didn't manage to finish it because at one point the checkpoint gets spaced too far apart. The main gameplay concept just works so well. The graphics while simple are tasteful and work well. The music, sounds and movement speed worked together so well to make this super zen ambiance.
Yeh, the dropbox link is wonky.
The UI becomes a bit tedious after awhile, and the gameplay is just trying to build as many things as possible. But for 48 hours, this is stellar. I love the ambition, and it's awesome to see a city management game in such a simple state.
Fantastic game. I love it. One thing I dislike is how fast a load of enemies come. I would like to feel like I am building up something good, but it is really disheartening when all my buildings die.
There is a LOT of level art in this game, but the bad movement really put me off. He needs some acceleration in there. Plus maybe jump animations might make it feel better. The music felt a bit too frantic. I feel like the game would be better with a more ambient feel without the oxygen timer and some calmer music. More exploration based. Other than that, good job! I got 2/3 of the files.
I wasn't pulled in at first, but the more I played the more I realised the subtle mechanics. The game is surprisingly balanced quite well (no pun intended).
Very interesting concept indeed. So abstract that it was hard to understand, but it really did have the theme right in the heart of it.
Jeez that took me 234 retries to win. Movement felt a bit imprecise but was super fun.
Nice game, well polished. I am having trouble finding a good strategy though.
Man that jerky movement really hurts my eyes. If you are really careful, you won't die, but it is interesting how the warps and movement really disorientate you.
Awesome game. Shame about the wonky hitboxes causing actions to be really difficult, but it was really fun other than that. Would love to see it on ipad with more content.
One of the worst pong clones games I've ever played. Haha but I love looking around the room for the different components and how that affected the computer.
Awh man. I love the concept and the polish. It is really well done, and looked really finished. It took me awhile to see that it isn't complete. Can imagine it being great with some objectives. Mood graphics and music are fantastic. Very confused how to rate the game since it is so close to perfect but isn't technically anything because it is incomplete.
Great music and art. Love the mash up concecpt. The gameplay needs a bit more to make it fun and non repetitive, but a great start for 48 hours.
Cool game. You actually managed to get quite a lot of mechanics in the game! Though it is very unpolished though.
The lack of audio really bring the game down. I like the idea of passively surviving by placing blocks, but it wasn't really so apparent how to get more blocks and what I was supposed to be doing. I do like the graphics though, it seems quite polished on that end.
Lovely game. So simple yet so much polish, juice and passion.
