Hard Reset by Snowdrama 2026-10-26T13:21:39Z ♥ 1

I love the simplicity of this one. "Oh... A rock won't do it? I got something for you... ๐Ÿ˜" then you get the grenade.

LD59 — Signal (20)

Drum`n`Ice by PepeBrante 2026-05-02T16:14:58Z ♥ 3

This game feels like it'd be great with a custom controller. I was feeling a little overwhelmed trying to remember which arrows to press before pressing the drum key. I was getting my health rocked by the time I got to the upgrades so I had to use my horns to heal. I've got to practice this more and hopefully I can get to the rave!

Sheep Trials by digital bacon 2026-04-30T02:15:54Z ♥ 1

That is a lot harder than it looks. I kinda got stuck on level 4 (I think) I wanted to restart the entire level and couldn't figure out how. I couldn't get the dog to get to where I wanted them to go, so I unfortunately gave up... until I came back. ๐Ÿ˜ I made it to level 8 and I couldn't find a way still to get the dog to go where I wanted. I refuse to give up on this game, I have to make it to level 10.

Below the Light by Beebo Studios 2026-04-30T02:01:07Z ♥ 3

I... I can't solve anything. I'm trying to skim over the comments but... it's telling the answers to some puzzles. I've gotta come back to this one. I wanna try and figure this one out myself. This is awesome. I'm 100% bookmarking this!

FixTheDamnSignal! by anszwa 2026-04-27T15:32:09Z ♥ 1

@goddoesplaydice HOLD IT!

@anszwa I love this. The "DAD!" SFX has me laughing so damn hard.

There Were Signs by commanderstitch 2026-04-26T23:49:47Z ♥ 1

As always, that was bizarre AND fun! I did win in the end, that first part though... that was rough!

Qwadrant by glem-fumeno 2026-04-26T23:29:20Z ♥ 0

Besides what has been stated above. The main thing I'd say you need is a bit more clarity in things. I had no idea why I was taking damage. After I purchased upgrades the boxes should become solid, so I know I can't buy it again.

I loved while I was playing getting a good juggle going bouncing back 3+ rhythmically. The right SFX and I could play this for hours.

Signal Path by Caelestial 2026-04-26T23:14:38Z ♥ 2

I was definitely mellowing out listening to the music. I love the simplicity in the design. There wasn't much need to do anything beyond figure out what each cloud was going to do and see if I could go around it. Perfect set of brain teasers that I'd love to see you explore more levels with.

Jammed! by bereg 2026-04-26T21:59:45Z ♥ 0

I love the feel/movement of this game. And I'm not just saying that because I won on my first attempt, really quickly. ๐Ÿ˜

I want this game multiplayer!

Signals of God by Geeni 2026-04-26T21:47:07Z ♥ 1

My goodness that was captivating. I do wonder if I got the right ending or not. I'm definitely going to follow you, because I am curious to see your journey. ๐Ÿ˜„

Tรฉloche by Magalix 2026-04-26T20:36:09Z ♥ 4

Everyone is nailing it! This is awesome.

I enjoyed the way this game played out. I managed to always get in the high 80s low 90s. It also has a low enough learning curve where I didn't feel like I needed an extensive tutorial in order to play.

Mixed Signals by universeflow 2026-04-26T16:24:07Z ♥ 2

Took a bit for me to get the gist of what I was suppose to do. This was a very fun and cute entry. I didn't like how I was getting 3 keys at the same time and failing. I wasn't sure what I was suppose to do in those instances. Other than that, that was fun. I hope you continue on with this!

Combo Cooker by WobbleBlocks 2026-04-26T03:53:17Z ♥ 2

"I want burger" and then "I have burger" made me laugh. It took me a bit to get the hang of what I was suppose to do. But I still felt like I wasn't able to ever get the cards that I needed... Because of bread. Oh so much bread.

I managed to get to round 3 twice and can't keep up with demand... too much bread. ๐Ÿ˜ญ

I also had to go in to full screen mode in order to see what I could do. Most of the UI was chopped off. I did enjoy myself while playing though.

Blazing Brave Hyperion M by abcdef65g 2026-04-26T03:31:14Z ♥ 1

I really like the art style going in to this, I couldn't figure out how to actually do the controls properly. Unfortunately without disabling the cursor, hitting the middle mouse button caused the cursor to go in to scroll mode.

The dual control scheme could've worked if I were playing one game at a time, but I felt like I was constantly trying not to get hit as the human while the giant robot stood there idly getting beat up. Is there an easy answer to how many hits I have to do in order to win?

Officially Dead by TechnicalityCreations 2026-04-25T04:54:20Z ♥ 1

I managed to survive until the end! I did run in to a few issues running the game in Windows. It tried to run in full screen but the start bar was covering over the bottom bits of the screen. I couldn't figure out how to quit so I hit ALT+F4. I just wish there were a bit more to do to attack. That water cooler looked like it was hurting me, I wasn't sure.

I love the physics of pushing things over on the zombies. I just wish I could've picked up that bookshelf again, cause I was getting surrounded! ๐Ÿคฃ

Observer by zidan-banan 2026-04-24T18:43:30Z ♥ 2

The vibe of this game really captured me. I got stuck and even watching the walk through I felt very confused as to what I was doing. I've gotta try again in a bit, because I really want to finish this without help. I really like this game and want to see the ending without having to watch the video. ๐Ÿ˜€

Tiny Signal Lost by Strega 2026-04-22T05:49:58Z ♥ 3

So cute! I love this ๐Ÿ˜ I managed to get to the end 17 minutes.

TellyBuddy by ColeSlaughter 2026-04-22T00:31:22Z ♥ 5

I got stuck... I refuse to close it until I know it's over. ๐Ÿ˜’

Edit: I eventually gave up and rebooted. A video didn't load so I couldn't continue.

Avalanche by JulienLussiez 2026-04-22T00:04:44Z ♥ 1

I saved everybody! At a certain point I did clip in to the mountain and couldn't get out, no matter. I hit refresh and made sure I saved everybody!

FINDER-1 by richjbaron 2026-04-21T05:14:27Z ♥ 1

๐Ÿ˜จ... What happened to finder-1, Rich? WHAT HAPPENED TO FINDER 1!?

Signal Steve by Isaac Hisey 2026-04-21T04:59:45Z ♥ 2

I had to pause around level 4, I'm really curious how many levels there are. I do enjoy that it's progressively getting more complicated with the back tracking. I think I'm going to leave it muted in the background until I have a chance to come back and try and complete it.

LD56 — Tiny Creatures (12)

C.Bee.O. by Sibi 2024-10-21T02:23:33Z ♥ 2

That music had me, and every time the queen says "Go!" I smiled... needless to say I smiled the whole time. I tried my best to get 100 blue flowers on that final stage, but alas. I only managed 97. ๐Ÿ˜…

Good Morning Oswald by hubol 2024-10-20T16:12:00Z ♥ 1

good-morning-oswald.jpg

I got this far. ๐Ÿ˜ Took me a lot of figuring things out, glad to see the game is in fact finishable.

I found the music to be my favorite part because it was quite comical. Awesome job.

NotBigEnough by igor.dodan 2024-10-18T19:36:35Z ♥ 1

I love the audio track behind this game. The game unfortunately stopped spawning enemies after a while in the second room.

When making jumping/hopping enemies, you should have a shadow under them so that it gives the players a little basis of where the enemy is in 3d space. That being said, the collision detection seemed a bit off as I had trouble actually hitting enemies. I had to let them hit me first to know that they were in range.

I love that you also have a lose stinger for your game over. If this is your first game jam game, congrats! Hope to see you do more!

7777777 by Zhz 2024-10-18T19:19:50Z ♥ 1

Oh, I thought that this was a quick and easy one. There's a way to win? I have to go back and play longer.

Hopefully, you had a fun time and will participate again in the future!

Tiny World Mayhem by Transkuja 2024-10-18T19:14:11Z ♥ 3

I'm so glad I didn't look at the screenshots, only the title. I was so caught off guard! This was really fun. ๐Ÿ˜†

Carnivorous Corpse Aquarium : Feed & Thrive by Adrien Tremblay 2024-10-16T02:13:58Z ♥ 1

๐Ÿ˜ฏ No one but us knows where they are now. ๐Ÿ˜‰

This was quiet the cool concept. I did run in to the "Once I had enough plants, just throw the bodies in, the fish will handle them." problem. Then just sitting and waiting for more contracts. Still was a fun little game. ๐Ÿ˜„

Algie's Adventure by Jonathan Fischer 2024-10-16T02:02:31Z ♥ 2

I love the art style of this. It all leans in to this spooky vibe of this pipe system. Unfortunately for me the controls were very difficult for me to get the hang of-I actually wrote a lengthy reply of what I experienced, and then I saw you already had it listed as bugs.

I think this game looks fantastic and would love to hear more details on the making of this game. ๐Ÿ˜„

Build The Sun by TRASEVOL_DOG 2024-10-12T23:12:19Z ♥ 1

I am so glad that @johnnysix and @thyoi said this game was winable. You kept me in it for 6+ hours. I was determined to see that ending! I LOVE this game.

I did find myself getting frustrated when I accidentally hover over something someone was carrying, and deleted it. Happened with ore at least once ( ๐Ÿคž ) and I was like "I hope I didn't soft lock myself." At some point I clicked on or used something and a diamond appeared in one of the little dude's hands. I wasn't able to get another diamond from what I saw.

Code Bunny by Stevie257 2024-10-10T01:42:46Z ♥ 2

I made it to wave 17... my computer started chugging. This is a really solid entry! I'd like to see more of this!

By level 21 it's almost unplayble for me. :( code_bunny.png

Abyssflier by v1ru6 2024-10-09T17:59:02Z ♥ 1

You've mentioned most of the things I have feedback for, so I won't repeat. What you could've used is a minimap, that way when a rod is being attacked you could flash it to alert the player where they need to head. That would've lifted a bit of the burden of the draw distance.

Great job on using Unreal. I don't see many of those.

We Little Three by Prismapunch 2024-10-09T02:39:34Z ♥ 1

Very cute and simple game. I was hoping there were more levels when the win screen popped up. ๐Ÿ˜„

LD55 — Summoning (4)

Elemental Frontiers by Floke 2024-04-27T21:41:47Z ♥ 1

This game is almost perfect. I just needed a big of noise/audio to bring this thing all together. Great entry!

Summoner's Sanctum by Prismapunch 2024-04-27T21:06:09Z ♥ 1

Made it to level 15 and checked the comments. Once I saw everyone else was saying it was endless, I stopped playing. I was having fun while playing though. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

I would like to see more variety in the levels beyond just switching the enemies up. Change the number of points you get so people don't just reuse "what worked". That kind of thing.

I was hoping to get to a big boss at some point. โ˜น๏ธ

Tiny Summons by Jeremy Ryan 2024-04-23T00:24:11Z ♥ 1

First Day Working at Freedomsoft Ltd. by kirsybuu 2023-10-16T01:25:54Z ♥ 1

I made it to the broken elevator with $1 left. When I was in the gauntlet of guards I didn't think to just ignore them and take the pay cut to get where I needed to. Congrats on your first Ludum Dare. I hope to see you around for more!

Corporate Courier Deluxe by JuanRod707 2023-10-15T19:19:19Z ♥ 2

Took me a while, but I managed to not get fired! ๐Ÿ˜„ this was a wild ride.

FELL OUT by daveranan 2023-10-10T15:44:05Z ♥ 2

This was so much fun. Unfortunately, I didn't finish because I accidently hit "E" while in the middle of the water instead of "W", then I couldn't find the boat after I respawned. I loved the audio when the characters talked. I loved the dialog. I loved that this was a pretty solid all around entry.

My absolute favorite part though? The looking up animation.

Screenshot from 2023-10-09 07-56-33.png My favorite level. Reminds me of college ๐Ÿ˜†

[Linux Users] I was able to play on Linux. I didn't run the sh file... I went in to the LD54/Binaries/Linux folder. I right clicked on the LD54-Linux-Shipping file, went to properties, and clicked "Run as an Application"

Parking Garage Rally by walaber 2023-10-08T16:47:37Z ♥ 0

This is an adorably cute game! I had a blast playing it!

Too Many Marbles by Thomas Volpato 2023-10-05T04:53:49Z ♥ 0

I had fun playing for a bit, until I realized there were two more rounds to go. In the settings, I was expecting to be able to change the number of rounds (3 to 5 as an option). I really enjoyed the physics of it all, but I couldn't figure out why I could never shoot a metal ball into the circle. I don't know if it would've helped or even been possible, but pressing spacebar could possibly increase the deltaTime(???), so that the game wouldn't crawl when the ball inches forward.

Some soft mellow music definitely would've helped pass the time better as well. Parotting @phillips-albright's comment, but I'd also add "The player with the higher score should go first in the following round" so that other players can catch up by knocking the first player's marbles out. Also, a marble pool, could've been cool, where all players are choosing from the same marbles.

This is a really cool entry, I'm curious if you'll keep working on it.

X-13 VIRTUOUS MISSION by Riesyeti 2023-10-05T04:36:31Z ♥ 1

The main thing I think you're missing is feedback. I wasn't sure if I won or not, but I couldn't find any additional enemies and I thought I made it to the end of the level. I love the level design (cept when I thought there was a lower level, but there was only the abyss) and was hoping if I finished the level, I'd have to go through another level with less RAM.

The 32bit graphics really sold me on this experience. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

3 Spots Castle by ecenizo 2023-10-04T04:39:04Z ♥ 1

This was a nice short and sweet strategy game. It was a little confusing why the horses were getting leveled and it seemed that the best strategy was to just have two archers and one soldier. Good job. Looking forward to playing future games of yours.

Delivery DRONE by kasperhangard 2023-05-07T16:16:36Z ♥ 1

I had fun with this game.I definitely played more than once. ๐Ÿ˜„

I have a few notes. The tutorial text needs to always face the camera. While doing the tutorial I ran in to the problem of not being able to read the text because I drove too far. Speaking of which, I REALLY love the fact that the tutorial forces you to learn the mechanics in order to continue. When the game started I clicked to gain focus and the instructions page went away, but luckily I was able to read/play the tutorial without having to memorize anything.

I like the physics that you have but they worked against me too much. After my first play through I got the hang of it and started upgrading. But, once I upgraded speed I felt like I no longer had control of the car. Going to revisit this game a little later because I honestly want to see what the jump does, because I'm sure that would've saved me multiple times.

Icy Porch by jebouin 2023-05-07T01:34:49Z ♥ 1

I love how this game was put together. I'm a really big fan of the transition between levels as well as the amount of levels. I was actually disappointed when the game was in fact over. Great entry!

This was a really solid entry!

Pizza Race by E-polygon 2023-05-03T02:46:39Z ♥ 0

Congratulations on finishing your first game jam! I managed to get 51 slices (on my third play), then I accidentally went off of the screen. ๐Ÿ˜„

One quick note. You should wait until the first slice of pizza is on the screen before starting the timer. On my second play through. By the time the first slice appeared I was in single digits and it spawned inside of a car.

Glimpse of the Future by AigleSan 2023-05-02T14:25:39Z ♥ 3

This is a pretty nice game for your first completed game. You have the gameplay loop in there where you can play, win and lose.

Some quick notes that I hope will help you on your journey as a game developer.

Learn Unity's collision system and follow up with the AI navigation. I naturally moved around the cars thinking collision would've stopped me, but the secret organization people didn't. I personally believe for a simple concept of an enemy chasing you, the built in AI will be a lot less work than hand coding it.

A thing I tend to miss with game jams is player feed back when the do something correct. Usually playing a sound effect works, but majority of the time, you want to have something visual happen. Example: When you get more time, something should flash/flicker around the UI or appear by the player to alert you that you have more time.

I hope this little bit helps, and good luck with your next game!

Needed a gamepad for this one. Spamming the spacebar (as others have already mentioned) would've been a lot more fun for me if mine wasn't already busted. :(

I love trying to figure out the patterns of the bosses, cause the damage that the final boss was able to dish out ๐Ÿ‘ You don't want to be hit by that too many times. I had a lot of fun playing this! I had to keep trying until I saw the ending!

This game is a real treat. The hardest thing to do is get back on beat after getting ahead of the worm. I can't get much further than 550. :( I'll keep playing and hopefully I won't be humming this when I got to sleep tonight. :D

Different Strokes by Scott Steffes 2022-04-06T01:11:53Z ♥ 4

Oh wow. This was really really cool. I enjoyed just wandering around and looking at what a lot of people drew. I did update one piece of art, in retrospect I probably should've screen grabbed it.

Definitely lives up to its name!

Loop by makio64 2022-04-05T20:11:58Z ♥ 2

I had to give this game a try. The first play through I was confused and seemingly won without doing much of anything. But the second time... once I understood the mechanics. I found I could run pretty much forever by drawing extremely squiggly lines at the start of my platform then stretching out a flat area. Once the flat area started to break, or if I got to the edge of it "It's squiggly line time again!"

I love the look and feel of this game.

Slide Out by TimeTravelHamster 2022-04-05T18:46:46Z ♥ 1

After taking a bit to get use to the controls(Press space bar to jump and then you change directions) I found it difficult to get the timing right to land on top of the enemies to crush them... vs landing right in their mouth. My highest score so far as 3020 I was doing so well until I accidentally jumped off of the edge trying to land on someone's head. ๐Ÿ˜… This was a really fun game.

LD49 — Unstable (7)

Helico Pter by 3LSTMsInATrenchcoat 2021-10-13T16:39:54Z ♥ 1

I managed to get through level 1 and saw there was more. ๐Ÿ˜ฑ My heart couldn't take it! I bow to everyone who was able to make it past level 2. It was way too difficult for me. I also like the really subtle noise that the helicopter makes as it flys, it didn't real repetitive which can sometimes ruin a game like this.

Awesome job!

Dungeonball 2 by Gurbx 2021-10-13T16:31:49Z ♥ 2

I had a lot of fun rolling through this game! Some of the levels were too hard for me, as I kept double bouncing off of spikes and losing. Overall I had a blast!

Chaos Dungeon by CookieRA 2021-10-12T17:28:23Z ♥ 2

Pressing the numbers not changing the spells is killer because it looks like it works :(. After playing I read the comments I had to go back and try with the wheel. Game is that much more fun. One quick suggestion is to put the mouse wheel instruction on the itch page. Because I typically look at how to play a game there. As well as if anyone doesn't browse back to the LDJam site or if they find the game through itch, they'll have that note readily available.

Boat History by etrealjunior 2021-10-09T23:53:31Z ♥ 1

I really really enjoyed this, the music and mood were perfect. The only piece of feedback I have to offer is volume controls somewhere. Everyone makes at different sound levels, so we sometimes have to change the speakers volume. An ingame volume controls helps. :)

Dominion by Shootboots 2021-10-08T02:33:19Z ♥ 1

I need more of this game in my life. This was so enjoyable I was hoping there would be additional levels or something along those lines. I've been playing it for a long time now(I think about a half hour) and I still haven't gotten bored. If I didn't have other Ludum Dare games to play this would be what I would be playing for the next hour or so!

Great job!

That was rough but very enjoyable! I did make it to the top floor, and it was worth every second!

LD48 — Deeper and deeper (16)

Deep in the Space by Swoolfeek 2021-05-16T17:38:06Z ♥ 1

Awesome job on your first entry. Here's one note on player feedback I want to give to hopefully help in the future.

Player feedback is probably the most important lesson I've learned doing these jams. I wasn't sure if I were hurting the boss or the boss was hurting me. A simple color color fade is a quick fix until you figure out if you want to do something better, I do this with a stock animation controller. A health meter may take a bit more time to implement depending on how comfortable you are with the UI system. A hit sound effect although helps with polish, sometimes people don't have audio turned up enough to tell (so I personally only add this if I have time at the end).

There's a hiccup in the game when you press space to reload, and I'm curious what that actually is, and if someone can help/give advice on how to avoid that. Or if you already know a solution.

I'm actually awful at this game so I wasn't able to make it to the second boss. I didn't find the sweet spot people above mention, so I couldn't figure out if I could actually win until I came here and read the comments. Going to give this game another go so I can see the second boss.

Deep ribbit by teshimoto 2021-05-08T07:21:25Z ♥ 1

Finally got a moment to play. I tried with my gamepad at first, then I saw I couldn't click next. So I switched to keyboard and mouse. WOW, I really had a fun time playing, being careful not to step on traps that shot at me, dipping around corners to avoid being shot, and trying not to get lost. My biggest problem was enemies didn't react to being shot, so I was able to cheese the majority of enemies as well as the final boss. I had to jump to 1.0.3 because after I died the game wouldn't let me back in, I would just get a black screen. I'm really glad I got to enjoy this game. :D

Obelisk by caeonosphere 2021-05-08T05:00:33Z ♥ 1

I absolutely can NOT get pass level 14. That is always where I die every single time :(

This game is a lot of fun. Is it winnable or endless?

Super Drill Diver! by Cornflowerblue 2021-05-07T05:28:24Z ♥ 2

I love the art style to this game. I had some trouble with the controls, The mouse camera movement was too much for me, thank goodness I had an actual gamepad. I also experienced a lot of overlapping music, and I'm not sure if that's because of it being the web version or what.

This is a fantastic start to something bigger if you decide to take it in that direction!

Bad Day to be a Bunny by joonamo 2021-05-06T14:39:50Z ♥ 2

I've gotten rescued, but I still have this hilarious song looping in the background!

"Bunny has crossed the cat mob for the very last time"? I think not. ๐Ÿ˜

One major complaint I have is placement. Sometimes the seashells are put in location where I can't possibly get it or worse yet, sharks are place in the only possible passing. Other than that I really like this game.

Deep Dog by DevNoob 2021-05-06T05:03:05Z ♥ 0

It's really awesome that you did this in 12 hours! One quick note that I have, I really wish you would've made the store a key press and not a button.

DigSweeper by radmccool 2021-05-03T06:09:24Z ♥ 1

I enjoyed dropping down through the black abyss, I just needed a little more feedback from what I was doing. I wasn't quite sure how deep I actually was in(What level was I at). I think my impatient got the better of me and I would quickly click to get to the bottom and that would cause me to fall on a bomb. Other than that, I'm not sure if the game ramps up in difficulty beyond additional tiles.

Maybe if there were a timer of sorts to force me to pickup speed. This is a solid foundation to build on. Good job.

6 Feet Under by theStoff 2021-05-01T04:57:26Z ♥ 4

I love this game so much. I'm just terrible at it. I couldn't get off of the 5th level. I was playing with a controller so you know I was having a good time! Thanks for this one!

Deep Sleep by Link270 2021-04-29T04:07:57Z ♥ 3

Really powerful game with a message. I had to see the entire thing through. This game perfectly nails mood and the music really really fit!

loading... by PopDaddyGames 2021-04-29T02:19:27Z ♥ 3

I really want to finish this game. I have no idea what was doing wrong. I got really close to the space station and got a tiny bit turned around. When I turned to face it again it was very very far away again. I'm not sure what I need to do to finish/win but... I'm interested in trying again.

Physician, Heal Thy Elf by No Grapes Games 2021-04-28T17:57:41Z ♥ 1

I recognize this art style from previous jams, so I had to come and play your latest. I wasn't disappointed. I'm a baby so I do have a complaint. The one issue I had was the timer not pausing when I brought up the upgrade. So, I had to plan my moves ahead and quick click on things so I didn't lose time... I still finished with over two minutes remaining though, so maybe I was stressing for no reason. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

โ™ช Soooo โ™ช Much potential. I would like to see what this game could have been if you all are going to keep working on it. I'm curious where the stopping points were from getting this playable. Thank you for making the source code available.

Perhaps you should do a post mortem!

Deeper Rooms by KaJoseh 2021-04-27T02:31:57Z ♥ 3

I was white knuckling while paying just waiting for something to jump out and scare me! You really nailed "Mood" with this. I like whatever the visual effect was, that really made this stand out. I wish there were more to do.

Deep Breath by ewpratten 2021-04-27T02:23:48Z ♥ 1

I love the mood of this game. As you get deeper and deeper, you tend to forget that you have to breathe. But... the game does remind you, or at least it reminds your clone. I love the feel of just moving around in the ocean. If I have one suggestion for future Ludum Dares. Please name your zip file the name of the game. It was hard to find this page again after downloading and accidently closing the window.

LD47 — Stuck in a loop (10)

Feed the Bear by Emperor Eagle 2020-10-20T13:48:32Z ♥ 1

This is a very cute entry. At a certain point the music stopped looping and I was standing in a small column just collecting points. Are the beehive hit boxes larger than the honey pot? I believe if they're the same size I could probably stay in one spot indefinitely.

Creed by dimlight 2020-10-19T00:34:25Z ♥ 1

I love the idea of the hidden ending to get past the "stuck in a loop". There was so much about this game that I absolutely love, I'm sad that I've finished it with two endings...

:chef kiss:

Spirit Journey by theStoff 2020-10-11T04:41:30Z ♥ 3

Wow. I just sat down and played this. This is excellent work for the timeframe. It was very difficult for me (since I'm terrible at platformers) but it wasn't frustrating enough to make me rage quit. I made sure I got all the way through. :D

LD46 — Keep it alive (16)

Toy Wars by skico 2020-05-05T18:20:15Z ♥ 0

I really like this concept as applied to this jam. It gives your toys "new life". BUT, as a game itself, it still works. I'd really like to borrow some of these concepts for a future project if you don't mind.

Keep IT alive ๏ผˆPlay Online๏ผ‰ by BongoBongo 2020-05-03T02:29:39Z ♥ 1

In the 4 times I tried playing. I couldn't keep him alive. :( The best I did was about 30 seconds left in the work day.

Very challenging and yet still fun.

FIREGUARD by Puszkee 2020-04-30T23:47:46Z ♥ 1

Hey, cool entry. I love the throw the stick in to the fire to keep it going(took me a bit to figure that part out). I gave it a handful of tries and did eventually last 3 minutes then I got hit with something purple offscreen. ๐Ÿ˜€

Nit Picky notes below: I have a few notes for you for future references. I've personally noticed during Ludum Dare that people tend to not click a tutorial or a help button, so it's best to find a way to hide it within the game. Once the game opened I quickly pressed play and tried to figure out what to do. Once I couldn't, and died, I clicked the button to "try again". There's currently no easy way to get back to the main menu without refreshing (Making it difficult to change the difficulty as well)

Adding this to the title screen script will make it easier to release your build on web_gl and desktop, without the quit button showing up(Forgive me if you already knew this) #if UNITY_WEBGL quitButton.gameObject.setActive(false); #endif

Keep Him Alive by KeepingHimAlive 2020-04-25T20:58:23Z ♥ 1

I enjoyed the general idea of "Keep the guy healthy". It was especially good being able to deter him from going to a certain item just by throwing a blocker in the way. Unfortunately that's one of the hardest things to do. I thought I completely blocked him from being able to go somewhere, but the line was able connect.

My longest survival time is 120 seconds out of 5 games.

(Programming suggestion below feel free to stop reading) Not sure if you programmed this in, but calculate how long it should take to get to said item. If it takes the character more than that plus a buffer, have him ignore said item(Put it in a list of ignored). This may take a slight level of frustration on the player's part away but apply a level of balance you may want.

Economic Bubble by room606 2020-04-25T20:44:40Z ♥ 1

I loved all the different hand drawn phases of the balloon, unfortunately I couldn't figure out the actual gameplay challenges. It was easy enough to keep the balloon from going pop, but nothing drastic enough happened where I needed to deflate quickly. A varying meter showing how long before something affected the market would probably be what I needed to balance things out.

The concept is great, topical, and unexpected. Excellent use of the theme.

@amazura I saw that snapshot waaay too often. The game was very fun and surprisingly difficult. I'm usually good at games like this, but today... whooo.

I love the art style as well as the gameplay. The music really brings it all together. I'm a fan of this. :D

Cool game!

You Can't Die! by Nirose 2020-04-24T00:31:50Z ♥ 1

Greetings from Reddit! I saw this game and HAD to play it. I'm probably the only person who quickly adjusted to the controls and "got" it. A few notes if you decide to add on to this game.

Being hit with the ship that requires another ship to hit it, is hard enough. Having that alien super villain come as well as ANOTHER one of those ships, seems impossible to recover from.

I don't think I was able to kill that super villain at all. If there's something missing there, please let me know.

Do you plan on expanding on this game? If so I'm very interested in playing again. :D

Lab Rat by Maxathon 2020-04-21T20:29:02Z ♥ 2

It was really cool. I got to the 3rd level and couldn't figure out how to dice or cook the meat. What I tried in a previous level didn't work, so I ended up losing.

Busy Bee Business by HuvaaKoodia 2020-04-21T04:43:40Z ♥ 2

I love the graphics. Wish the game had in game instructions. I had to lose a few times without getting a score before going back and reading. :)

Tower of BOOM by BadPiggy 2020-04-21T04:23:43Z ♥ 1

Love the concept. It was a bit frustrating that there wasn't a slow ramp up. A wall would be on the second level, and kind of force me to jump down and get right in to things. The meter fell too fast for me to really get my barrings once to see what I could kill fast enough.

Really enjoyable game. If you're planning on polishing it anymore let me know, cause I'm interested in trying again. :)

The bugs are creepy just staring at you always. I managed to escape the tide pool! That was fun, a tad frustrating (with the camera as mentioned above) but once I got use to it I won. I didn't realize you couldn't grab items anywhere, I got lucky until the board. Then I came back to this page and saw the grab points.

Good job!

This is a very neat concept. I thought the changes I made/asked for would be consistent. I wanted to be faster and jump higher. Sometimes I thought I was unable to make a jump, and felt it wasn't my fault when I missed.

I really loved when the level went upside down, except I was terrible at playing that way and died right away.

Cunctan's Square by Ajayajayaj 2018-08-18T15:41:15Z ♥ 1

I found that this game fits the theme perfectly as I just "Got it" as soon as I started playing. Unfortunately I couldn't play long due to time constraints and I think my computer was laggy. Also the movement of the enemies confused me as to if they were random or they had a specific pattern. I would've liked to have seen different enemies that have different patterns based on color, to help strategize better which direction I'd have to move in.

Tiny Empires by Jack Maxwell 2017-12-16T19:22:13Z ♥ 1

Played the game, went to leave feedback, but it seems every issue I had was addressed in the above comments. So, I'll make a few suggestions (that I don't believe I saw above) if you're possibly looking for more work to do. ;)

Some things need to have a reoccurring cost. I can build one castle, and just keep moving new sets of troops across the board to sit on any city. The castle keeps making them so, why bother building more than 5?

Sell towns,banks, cities, etc... Get back a fraction of the price you paid, but hey hey, you shouldn't have built there. I accidentally confused castles with cities one too many times, lost out on some good real estate.

Troop lost. 4 vs 3 enemies always wins hands down. But, I never have to replenish the first set of troops that were made. At the end of a 4 vs 3 battle, the 4 is now down to 3. This way I can't have have a slow growing wall of troops moving outward as I build.

I have a lot more (because I really love this game)... but I'm not going to just flood you with "You know what you should do!?"

Great job on this game.

The weighty island by frederikja163 2017-12-16T17:38:20Z ♥ 1

I played the entire thing from beginning to end. I did enjoy the concept as well as a lot of the execution, and I have a few suggestions for moving forward, that I've learned from past Ludum Dares.

Having a visual representation of your next goal somewhere reminds the player what the need to do next. The player said "I should go talk to that guy." If I missed that message for whatever reason, there's no way to bring it back (If there is I missed it)

I don't think the car controls work for this type of game. Granted there were no threats coming at me, but doing a 180 to go in the opposite direction was annoying.

Text representation of how much weight is in each item. I never quite figured out how much each thing weighed, I just dropped all my tools and filled my inventory up with stuff and crawled back to the guy.

@frederikja163 I'm not sure if this is your first game or not, good job.

Virus Detected by NotSpaghettiGames 2017-12-12T02:47:01Z ♥ 2

I very much so enjoy the general concept, but I didn't have a goal that was clear to me. I ended up wandering around not bothering to revive anyone until I had 100 health (Which causes the letters HP to disappear ;) )

I made it to around 3,000 points and 110+ Hit Points before I kind of figured the game wasn't going to end. Slight suggestion, as the player gains more and more hit points the enemies should become more aggressive. I could easily dodge a group of enemies by using them to block and push each other, then quickly shoot and kill them all before they could change directions.

This is great work, I hope to see you all in future Ludum Dares.

Deckest Dungeon by huminaboz 2017-12-11T04:48:11Z ♥ 2

The one thing that would've completely made this game for me, one button that dumps all of your cards (Enemy gets a free hit) and I get 5 new ones. Instead I found myself dealing 0 damage over and over again because the cards just weren't coming up for me.

Sugarplum Summit by Michael Clavell 2017-12-10T19:53:45Z ♥ 1

I enjoyed the game quite a bit. I got all the way to the end and was like... Cool! I can take one more hit before I die... this boss is gonna be a cinch. Ready ladies? Uh... Fairies? WTF!?

So I played the exact opposite way the second time and I beat the boss.

Very cool game, I love the way you used the theme.

I'm with @flerokoo on this... This is my life. I really like this game. I couldn't finish it, going from 3 to 4 just infuriated me, but the game is awesome regardless.

The more high level the engine, the worse it gets by Ajayajayaj 2017-12-06T07:17:01Z ♥ 1

I'd love to see you revisit this concept in an environment you're comfortable with. I'm curious how it would've played in the end. Unity is a monster to learn at first. I found that I had to do several small non-game jam projects before being able to output the type of games I do now. I'd say stick with it, if you're really willing to learn. On top of that sometimes you have to throw away the old concepts that you learned to start over again. That's one of the hardest lessons with Unity.

Captain Lettuce by geck0 2017-08-22T01:32:03Z ♥ 1

I was jamming to that music. I thought I was going to have a lot of fun beating up dudes, but I found that fighting was always my worse option. Sprinting around trying to do things and using up my power seemed best. I wish there were a way to get get more so swarmed with enemies (as well as a way to heal).

Gameplay notes. The pressing the button to charge should drain the key as well. Accidentally tapping it and using it right away is a bummer. A way to heal(If that isn't in the game, I suck so I didn't get far). That could allow for larger levels and less frustrations when enemies get free hits off of you. Hold a key to attack harder(or charge super attack kind of thing). That would allow me to use or waste energy for an attack and feel like I have a better balance of how I want to play the level. I'm not a big fan of stealth games but I felt like that was my only option.

Cool game!

Okay, I downloaded this game not knowing what to expect. As the screen started to fade I got wide eyed and smiley. This is one of the most clever(if not the most clever) I've played this Dare. I didn't finish but I'm going to keep at this thing until I conquer it. :D

Manual Mech by Mikeliosus 2017-08-14T05:45:15Z ♥ 1

I really enjoyed this game. I never got off of level 1 but I really enjoyed it. I couldn't figure out how to predict where I was going to land with jumps so I always ended up wasting a ton of energy trying to figure out where I should land. I got stuck once I got to the drill area and eventually gave up.

But I really enjoyed this game. :D

LED Adventure -- Running out of Power by ledez 2017-08-13T20:17:11Z ♥ 1

I had no clue you could shoot in the game. It seemed only necessary for the final boss. I had to redownload the game today and play again, this time I won!

I wanted to leave some notes, but it seems like you're building a newer version now. I'd love to play that when it's ready.

Brittle Power by rubyleehs 2017-08-13T16:58:18Z ♥ 0

Okay, here are somethings that I got during multiple plays of your game. Sorry, if they sound harsh, I was going for more instructional than criticism. And I'm hoping it doesn't sound insulting.

Unfortunately, I couldn't get pass the second wave. I had an issue where even though I could afford something, buying it resulted in a game over. Having to jump back and forth between turrets to turn them on and off to save power lead to me not having as much fun as I should've been.I tried playing about 6 or 7 times before getting frustrated and finally just closing the window.

(Playing again after reading the instructions) Now... upon actually reading the instructions this has potential to be a really awesome concept with some play balancing(as mentioned above). The last time I just played I managed to get to level 4. Building a bunch of power generators and two turrets got me through to roughly level 4. Some of the block placement makes wind turbines useless.

I know you're going for power management, but I'd suggest that there needs to be multiple ways to get power. I wasn't in any situation where I could even halfway afford the tower without putting myself in serious danger, so I'm really curious to see what that does. Going to keep trying and hopefully get to that point.

(I understand this is a compo entry but hear me out on this) Sound effects would've made this entry a lot less frustrating. Having a heart beat-esque sound like Space Invaders would've made it a lot easier to realize something along the lines of "Hey, it's going really fast, I'm draining faster than I'm producing"

Quick notes A restart button: I placed a Electro-Taser-Cannon Hybrid down in the wrong spot and realized I was going to lose. I refresh the window. Then did it again by accident. Instructions somewhere else: I tend to put mine within my pause screen (Doesn't work to well for me), but having it hidden on the title screen is something that has never worked for me. Start with something: I think things may flow better if you integrate a tutorial that starts you off with something and tells you to remove it or turn it off. Noting that this is a important part of the game play. Power Save: Not quite sure what that was for. It lead to a lot more button clicking for me.

Great job, keep at it! I think you can turn this into a really fun experience with more polish.

Step out of the light by Zdeno 2017-08-12T20:14:55Z ♥ 1

Oooh, I really loved this entry. I had trouble figuring out if the lights going out meant I was going to lose or something, so I would take a few steps... push... run back to the light switch... repeat. Wasn't until the very last level that I found out, the robot simply won't push things if there isn't enough energy.

I loved the jokes that are heard throughout. A little thing like voice acting takes a game a long way in my heart. It certainly made solving the puzzles a lot more entertaining.

Your Friend Is Lost In The Woods by pilly 2017-08-07T06:50:46Z ♥ 2

If @elmismopancho didn't say there was an ending I was ready to give up on this game. We spent entirely too much time on this game, I refused to let it beat me once I knew it was actually winable.

AWESOME job!

The Nuclear Age by foxor 2017-08-07T06:18:45Z ♥ 0

My biggest complaint is that there is no explanation of the rules. It lead to frustration and me eventually getting stuck on level 5. I think everything(as mentioned above) would've been solved with a tutorial.

You Can't Handle the Tentacles by Chadivision 2017-08-06T17:40:11Z ♥ 0

Okay! I finally got a chance to print it out and play it. (took photos because I used counters instead of cutting out those little bits of paper). First initial reaction to finishing the game was that it ended too fast. I think I misread a rule or two because first round the Monster got an attack boost. That didn't give me enough time to generate and deploy troops before it busted various buildings. Once that happened I felt like I was playing catch up against an impossible foe. I have a few questions about rules and flow.

When I deploy to the battlefield, are those units only for rerolls? If so I feel as though they're better suited to sit somewhere where I can spend them for more dice in the future.

R&D seemed really really expensive. With my only generating 4 units a turn having to spend on Armory and then upgrades with R&D only for one event card to wipe out everything seemed hard. Are they all multiple use? (Like I can basically spam the Big 'Ol Nuke until running out of power.

If the creature has 4 successful attacks, all of them land on one building that has 1 troop on there. Do I get 1 chance to block or 4? It may seem ridiculous, but that was the only way I was able to save my buildings once repaired.

Most importantly, are you going to continue to work on this? I'd really like to keep up to date with it. :)

WOW! That was extremely awesome! I love this game! Once I realized that you can rotate the upper body independently of the what the legs are doing, I started strafing to take down enemies. Unfortunately I ended up walking right into a trap of 3 enemies and I died.

BATTLE BOIS by Valmay 2017-08-04T01:04:44Z ♥ 0

Oooh! I didn't think it'd be possible to make a Pikmin style game during Ludum Dare. You've proven me wrong. I had a little trouble figuring out what to do, mainly because I didn't realize pressing "1" was how I got a Boi. From there they seemed to get creamed every time I sent them into combat.

I stuck with it, but I'm going to have to come back and play it a bit later. :D

I had no idea the main thing was on my side. I was trying to attack it but ended up leaving all of my crystals to get destroy. @porkeh I'm under the impression that if you grab batteries you can revive dead crystals. Didn't do me any good though. 213 was my personal best. :D

Mallows World Adventure by geeitsomelaldy 2017-05-17T04:23:25Z ♥ 0

I finished the entire thing, I never found out what the tents and fires were for. I figured it was for the pie but... nope. :(

My only beef was that I couldn't figure out how to cycle through items. So I had to drop things one at a time to get to the item I wanted to get to. Was there any reason to continue to hold on to the letter?

Woah. I knew I was in for a treat when I saw the screen shot. I didn't read any of the comments or even the description, I just jumped right in. I love it so much more since I experienced it that way. I didn't understand the first part until I read someone else's interpretation of it. Wow... excellent job!

By the time I believe I was close to leaving, time ran out. :(

It took me too long to figure out what I was suppose to do, but once I did, it became very clear. You have to get that perfect engine balance going to get resources fast enough. This was a very neat concept. :D

Save the litle Planet! by igalencar 2017-05-13T03:30:55Z ♥ 1

I didn't realize I could shoot or roll, so I spent the whole game running yelling "Stay away from me bat ball!"

Then I wasn't sure what I did wrong, but when I tried to play a second time, the main character just fell into the abyss. :(

This was a VERY solid entry and I'm curious if you have that song separated for download.

Space Honey: The adventure of Little-Bee ๐Ÿ by thiagowaw 2017-05-12T23:13:47Z ♥ 1

It took a bit for me to realize what I was doing wrong, but that didn't make the game any easier. I tried delivering the honey back to the comb, but a majority of the time I'd get hit by a wasp and lose it all. Also, a ui element to show where to go next seems to be a necessity(I say this because my game lacks it as well). Did I miss something or is there no audio?

Other than those complaints that I have made, I REALLY enjoyed what I played. I thought the graphics were amazing. And I guess I'm the only person who didn't have a problem with the controls. :(

Pity About Earth... by mwcz 2017-05-11T07:23:58Z ♥ 2

I think the general consensus is this should be a rhythm game. I tried to find a pattern to everything, but it seemed like the universe was literally just throwing stuff at me. A little more balance to flesh out the waves, so players don't feel like things are just happening and would give the game a better ramping up feeling.

Other than that, this game was extremely fun. I LOVE arcade style play till you die games, and this did not disappoint.

I managed to save humanity the third time I played. :D

Damn it, Don't Die! by RafaelSPBarbosa 2017-05-11T07:09:01Z ♥ 2

As fun as I found the game, I also seemed to have glitched it out where one of the hamsters got stuck against the wall. Managing two hamsters like mentioned above made the game entirely too easy... then... they hit the bed...

I couldn't manage any more than 4 hamsters because I couldn't figure out how to get the food to work. The book on the side of the screen during the title. Is that a tutorial book that isn't functioning or am I missing an important step on how to open it?

I really really really love the graphics on this game. It's like they all have a devious >:) face.

Cardboard Cats Online by Tenoch 2017-05-09T04:12:48Z ♥ 0

Took me roughly 7 tries to get in. I closed the app and reopened it immediately. On the 7th try, my firewall software said that the game was attempting to make an outside connection. @ilseroth I'm not sure if that information helps any...

I got in and then this... CatMMO.png

Neuroso by gamechoy 2017-05-08T02:14:47Z ♥ 1

That was rather enjoyable. I had a few issues when doing the second level with the platforming. But once I realized how to complete that level I stopped doing that thing I was doing wrong (attempting to touch every single spike in the level). I found the 3rd level to be rather easy compared to the second, and yes... I really enjoyed that ending.

My absolute favorite part was, the curiosity I got when I saw the orb and went to talk to it... "I told you not to touch my stuff"

I closed the game twice when I first started due to the low brightness of the main menu. :(

SlapR by MewSoul 2017-05-06T17:27:01Z ♥ 1

Alright, I tried this game out and I think it's adorable. I could see this playing perfectly on my phone (tilt to move and tap the screen to slap). Without repeating the feedback from above, allow me to add a few additional suggestions if you want to add a tad bit more.

Slap animation. Even if you don't animate the penguins, some special effect so that we know the slap was clicked and what the range of attack is.

UI change. For some reason my task bar appeared over full screen games, and for yours it covered up my house health and penguins slapped. If it were at the top, that'd be awesome.

SurviBall by Raysangar 2017-05-06T17:11:15Z ♥ 2

I loved almost everything about this game. Once I figured out eating the sheep was the way to go, I was able to finish the game(After the second attempt cause I forgot to build my house).

Only thing that threw me off was, I figure once I built the house to level 3, it would stop falling apart after eating. Other than that good job!

Slice of Life by tweedle 2017-05-04T06:07:21Z ♥ 4

I love the 2d graphics and music as well. I couldn't figure out the point of any mushroom besides 2. 3 seemed to blow up randomly (even while enemies were on the screen) and 1, it didn't even buy me enough time to be worth the cost. I found that spamming 2 (Like mentioned above) was the easiest way to win the game.

I will say that it needs are health bars. I couldn't figure out if my 2's were about to die or not, and suddenly they were just gone. Also my mushrooms got super aggressive and ran off of the screen one too many times. That made it hard to see if they were getting rocked off screen or not. I believe bounding them to the screen view would be beneficial.

I did enjoy the game though, curious to see if you take it any further. :D

My high score for finishing was 310.

World of Echoes by multiplexor 2017-05-03T03:12:51Z ♥ 1

Wow. When @heinrix said "There were so many of me..." I knew I was in for a good time. I'm amazed at what you accomplished in 48 hours. My only complaint was that the game was really short, because I was expecting more use out of the messages text.

Escape The World by Ajayajayaj 2017-05-01T05:52:20Z ♥ 1

8:31 with 411 moves. I didn't realize starting the level would not reset my moves, but I still beat @EndlessPlumber so I'm happy. I agree with the showing current color, I found myself hitting spacebar unnecessarily and getting confused when the 3rd color was added. I'd also go a little bit further and says some kind of success sound when a color goes through, or an indicator of how many blocks are left. I know it's clear to see how many are left, but seeing something change when you accidently shift a block off of the screen makes you say "Ooooh".

(I'm taking a big guess with the 8:31 time, I'm sure it was 7 minutes something, but the time appeared to have changed when I switched to my web browser)

Good job @ajayajayaj

I'm having a blast with this game. The sad part is, I keep getting stuck when my cube lands on a bad part of a platform, and I have to refresh the entire game.

... I eventually made it. I died roughly 14 times. Maybe half of those were on those four moving forks.

Cellular Defense by Evannex 2017-04-30T06:50:21Z ♥ 1

I love that sound effect when the contagions die. I've gotten to about wave 25 before writing this, unfortunately I need more of a challenge. None of the enemies are making it past the first two defenses that I have, and once I kill everything I have a good amount of time to wait (I'm playing the game at 3x speed). I want to try another level, but I MUST see if the game ends when you get to level 100. :D

Having Fun with this.

Planet Hoppers by Snowdrama 2017-04-30T06:09:26Z ♥ 2

The first time I played, I beat it really really quickly. I was very happy about that. The second... third... fourth time.... I couldn't find a second gem. I needed so kind of guidance to know where to go next, the mini map didn't really work too well explaining that to me.
