LD45 — Start with nothing (14)

Sticky Fingers by ruthiepee 2019-10-14T00:14:59Z ♥ 0

Game ran fine and was fun the first round, after getting a score and starting another round the hand quit stealing things. The power bar reflected my mouse input, but the hand didn't launch when I released lmb. Other than the glitch it was a fine game.

Cyber Tails by ChivaTateo 2019-10-13T15:19:17Z ♥ 1

Game is interesting, but could you please leave a link to the original version submitted for ld? Rules state you shouldn't add new features after submission, most people will have 2 links 1 for their updates and 1 with only necessary bug fixes

Tardigrades on the Moon by bassguitarbill 2019-10-12T14:15:57Z ♥ 0

Tardigrades + moon = a play from me. Overall interesting game, took me a minute to fully grasp what to do but it was pretty easy after that. Had a glitch where it brought up the "Grow moss farms" dialogue twice, but that was the only glitch I noticed.

Kobold Simulator by someone 2019-10-12T14:04:59Z ♥ 0

Pretty good start for building everything from scratch. The ai needs some work, it's odd they'd just let a kobold into the settlement. They also just chase you the entire way into your cave, but once you set down the object they wander about aimlessly. The models and animations are pretty good though.

RUST vs THE HIVE by Sol Roo 2019-10-12T01:18:34Z ♥ 2

Neat tank game, I like the variety of pickups. Primary weapons seemed very unbalanced, after trying a few I stopped using anything except the gatling gun.

Tactical Bodybuilding by SuperTibbles 2019-10-12T01:12:45Z ♥ 2

Very interesting game. I found it very difficult to determine which body parts I could interact with and which I couldn't, and had an even harder time getting parts to stick to my body. It would benefit alot from fading "dead" parts and highlighting parts when they'll stick to your character. Other than that it was entertaining.

Li'l Blue by duhbrain 2019-10-12T01:03:05Z ♥ 1

Pretty solid game, I completely missed the "Store" button for the first two levels! Maybe auto-entering store at the end of a wave since you basically always want to go to the store. It was still plenty fun though.

Spam Space To Exist by Wheffle 2019-10-12T00:47:56Z ♥ 2

Neat idea, I couldn't find more than 1 turret at a time which made killing anything a laborious process. I think it could have been more fun if you controlled the turret firing.

One And All by burnedkirby 2019-10-12T00:42:27Z ♥ 1

The fish were cute, but the particles coming from the player were disorienting. The experience was interesting though and it stands out.

Cavern Train Heist by microgravitydan 2019-10-09T23:40:42Z ♥ 0

Camera was very difficult to use and barrels were difficult to interact with. It was funny when I rushed the bad guy and he ran away from me.

Cave by Team-on 2019-10-09T23:12:36Z ♥ 0

The art was pretty nice. I wasn't really sure what the objective was. Left click moving the character and camera was a little disorienting since it would move the frame of reference for any items you were attempting to interact with. The inventory and item interaction seemed functional, I'm not a fan of rapid clicking but the mentioned "rpg battle system" might be neat to see implemented to work with the other game mechanics.

0 by blaster391 2019-10-09T23:00:03Z ♥ 1

I like the idea of gathering power balls to activate abilities. The very first one is completely confusing and making the ui always visible or having some text to explain it would be great. I also wasn't a fan of the player hitbox, was it a circle? I kept slipping off edges that seemed like I should have been solidly perched upon if it was a square. Other than that the concept was cool and I would like to see more unlockables in a game like this.

Vegan Farmer by leorean 2019-10-09T21:11:23Z ♥ 2

Wow, this game is kinda gross, but in a good way!

Damned Souls - Raising Blood by homeworld 2019-10-09T20:36:06Z ♥ 2

Killing to fill rooms with blood to raise the level was a cool idea!

LD43 — Sacrifices must be made (17)

The Cold Equations by incobalt 2018-12-06T21:35:35Z ♥ 1

Playing recent space sims made me a terrible person, I jettisoned her before really delving to deep in the story. It needs some fast conclusion for doing so as once jettisoned I just sorta sat around. The story seems interesting though and I might check out the source!

Aetherspirit by gwinnell 2018-12-05T22:23:21Z ♥ 1

Very impressive for the compo! It's very polished and plays flawlessly.

Ludum Dare Simulator by Hempuli 2018-12-05T22:19:25Z ♥ 0

The LD style rating system at the end was icing on a pretty good cake.

Flaming Resistance by C1FR1 2018-12-05T21:39:09Z ♥ 1

The black fading in really raises the stakes. Game plays well, my only complaint is how slow the player is (maybe a sprint?) but it makes sense and balances fine. Nice job!

Time Out by CodeKim 2018-12-05T21:34:24Z ♥ 1

I really liked the idea of time as ammo, made me think twice about shooting some robots. A few of the rooms were really hard to navigate to because the jumping had to be really precise. Very neat game!

Pirates may Cry by themarioga 2018-12-05T00:33:34Z ♥ 0

My only question is, why wasn't my rum gone? Resources depleted so slowly I was actively trying to cause shortages and couldn't lose. Game wound up crashing when I turned around from a whirlpool. The choices were fun and the Piratey theme was entertaining.

Rablat by Sodaro 2018-12-05T00:25:31Z ♥ 1

Interesting story, wasn't expecting the ending

The Life of a Corporate Drone by Slashee the Cow 2018-12-05T00:20:42Z ♥ 1

Lost sleep, food and family... but at least I'm at work makin money!

OVERCHARGE by Jonas Tyroller 2018-12-05T00:01:22Z ♥ 2

Very lovely game, the overcharge suicide is unique and a really cool mechanic!

Slime Laboratory by Jimbly 2018-12-03T22:52:38Z ♥ 1

I really enjoyed this! Slimes are great. Murdering slimes for their lifeblood is better. Feeding the lifeblood of murdered slimes to un-murdered slimes, priceless!

The Greater Evil by AndyGates01 2018-12-03T22:27:55Z ♥ 0

Easily the best death animation I've seen this competition!

Sacrifices must be made by TasakaSama 2018-12-03T22:25:10Z ♥ 1

Interesting puzzler, pretty difficult to make some of the jumps. Re spawning was a good use of the theme but starts to grate on your patience after playing for a long time. The color choice is pleasing and I think deserves a mention.

Apollo by Sigton 2018-12-03T22:11:36Z ♥ 1

I really liked this! Galaga style flying game with actual physics. Obstacles should do way more damage, as it was I felt like a tank. The aggressive controls fit the theme nicely. Well done ;)

Purple Space by BudgieM2 2018-12-03T21:46:01Z ♥ 1

The game seemed interesting but it picked up my HOTAS and wouldn't rebind. Definitely add multiple forms of input even if joysticks are detected so it's playable via keyboard or mouse.

Worthless Robots Fight by 01FE7E 2018-12-03T21:33:51Z ♥ 0

Controls were to far off screen to read, so I might be missing how to place robots. Ended up having to add them one at a time from left to right which was time consuming and not intuitive. I did enjoy the different types of robots and thought their different abilities were neat.

End of mankind by jijaweb 2018-12-03T21:28:27Z ♥ 0

Your link is no longer broken! Game is very hard though, you should be able to block incoming projectiles while holding a sheep (it seems big enough to protect you)

A dangerous situation not to wear shoes in by wie_ 2018-12-03T21:25:36Z ♥ 1

All shop simulators get a +1 in my book. It was hard to tell how to interact with things at first, mostly just learning where to click.

LD42 — Running out of space (6)

ROoS by Stephen Coley 2018-08-13T00:42:23Z ♥ 1

"You can jump if you have space" It said it so plainly but I failed to realize the weight it would carry. Nicely done, I liked it ;)

Shipping Error by runner_alien 2018-08-13T00:22:06Z ♥ 1

Well designed, appears simple but becomes more and more difficult. Also took me entirely to long to realize the debris was alerting you before it dropped.

CRAMMM: Totally Accurate Studying Simulator by tuism 2018-08-13T00:13:31Z ♥ 1

Great game! I like Trumpology. It needs a 1 key press to exit though (there might be one but I couldn't find it, had to alt-f4 to close). It could also use some way to hint at what words are right and wrong during gameplay. I know it highlights all wrong words at the end but with so many words popping up and flooding your brain it gets hard! Still had fun ;)

Stack City by HEXIEZ123 2018-08-13T00:07:14Z ♥ 0

You might be missing a file in the release, "The code execution cannot proceed because UnityPlayer.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem."

Protect the Core by Samuel Kriman 2018-08-13T00:04:27Z ♥ 0

Wow this looks really nice. The haze makes the whole thing seem like cells in a body. Hard to critique as I didn't run into anything that felt terribly wrong.

Doom Tower by Bensbuff 2018-08-12T23:58:32Z ♥ 0

Definately needs a score counter to tell how well you are doing, other than that it seemed solid.

LD41 — Combine 2 Incompatible Genres (1)

Spelling Zombie Shooter by codemaster 2019-10-10T00:25:31Z ♥ 0

The concept is very intriguing, but the controls are not. The shotgun was more like a small bomb, and not being able to orient your avatar made any aiming mechanic invalid. It felt more like telling someone where to drive a car than moving a person. A spelling zombie shooter does sound like a fun concept though!

LD40 — The more you have, the worse it is (27)

Fiscal Dungeon by Tom Panton 2017-12-06T00:25:25Z ♥ 2

This game made me laugh out loud! I wasn't expecting the explosion of coins upon my death, which came immediately after my utterance "I don't think I can die." It was hard to tell the difference between enemies you could pick up and enemies you had to destroy.

DEEPER by vizitas 2017-12-04T20:41:24Z ♥ 1

Very nice setting, the pitch black water really sets the mood. The maze is extremely disorienting and I was quickly lost. The bubbles always go up trick helps a little. I was getting dizzy with the camera movements though, maybe smooth out the rotation a little so it's less jarring. The diver also seems very fuzzy compared to the surroundings and treasure chests.

Level Onslaught by OrciFried 2017-12-04T20:29:38Z ♥ 1

Great art, very tough. The attack animation makes it seem like your range is way shorter than it actually is.

Bazooka Arms by DrFallos 2017-12-04T14:58:04Z ♥ 2

Very interesting concept, took me a minute to figure out you can change colors by moving but once I did I was able to beat back all the walls.

Slimefestation by Keppu 2017-12-04T14:51:42Z ♥ 1

The red slimes spraying everywhere was alarming, I hadn't noticed them sneak off to a corner to multiply! Neat game, but very hard. Once there are enough red slimes you can't really stop them from getting to the center. Also not sure about giving the slimes away, I assume you hand a blue slime to the man on the left? I couldn't get it to work though.

Catamari by Kieran Newland 2017-12-04T14:46:30Z ♥ 3

Eating with your face is hard! I missed the face part in the instructions and spent the first minute or so trying to eat a sausage with my bum......

Fatcat's Trip by rayriver 2017-12-04T14:24:24Z ♥ 2

Fat cats make everything better. Very well made game. I like the effect you leave behind when you lose weight ;)

Haven by William Bundy 2017-12-04T14:07:40Z ♥ 2

Definitely needs fast reading skills, some messages are so useless it's funny. Not knowing if a message is helpful or just a waste of time really makes you want to click through them as fast as possible. Neat idea!

A simple man by edmond00 2017-12-04T13:33:09Z ♥ 1

Very interesting, narrative piece. The art is very pretty and the simplicity lends itself to the scaling effect. After going left for so long the game tells you to go right, which was a really long way to go.

ZhenCo Ghost Management by amras0000 2017-12-04T13:08:03Z ♥ 1

Very impressive, the scripting is super easy to pick up on and I can see how this could easily grow to a be very very difficult puzzle game. Nicely done ;)

AntiBucket by wsKilljoy 2017-12-04T12:53:44Z ♥ 1

Nice twist on the collect falling objects games. The screen shake effect when you hit a raindrop is very jarring though

Retro Rocket Run! by gwolf86 2017-12-04T12:43:58Z ♥ 0

gtx1060, i7 @ 2.97ghz, chrome. Definitely lost frames the minute I started running through the coin field. The "pickups" should have some sort of notification when they activate, as I went off the screen a number of times when I picked up an invert and an invisibility in quick succession.

Mister President by Zinkler 2017-12-04T12:38:02Z ♥ 1

I'm not sure some of the options are working correctly. Several times I was asked to donate money, refused and still the money was taken. The artwork really is good though, and I can see the direction you were taking this game. I'd be interested to see what you could turn this into given more time.

Greedy Buggy by Are Sundnes 2017-12-04T12:27:33Z ♥ 2

Cute, the buggy is easy to control and it feels very precise. Made balancing coins much less aggravating than I imagined it would be!

Sky-Corsair by Sozey 2017-12-04T12:23:44Z ♥ 1

Those rocks are mean! definitely needs the re-play button, text-scroll speed could also be higher as the captain takes forever to say anything. Then again he could be one of those people who talks slow as can be but demand to be heard all the way through XD

Don't get drunk by tulipekoni 2017-12-04T11:52:32Z ♥ 0

I recieved an error, "There should be 'Don't Get Drunk_Data' folder next to the executable"

Fat&Mad by The_BM 2017-12-04T11:41:28Z ♥ 1

Such a fat, happy square. Good use of the theme. I think you get fat a little too fast though, almost un-flyable within minutes.

SHROOOMS by theloneplant 2017-12-04T11:38:01Z ♥ 1

I had an experience not unlike this once... Good game and the psychedelic effect has my head spinning!

EARTH BLOSSOM by Zarkonnen 2017-12-04T11:31:34Z ♥ 1

I can finally fulfill my dream of becoming a giant space blob and devour civilizations!

Workaround! by playball 2017-12-04T11:20:08Z ♥ 0

Ohh wow, if this is cubicle life I don't want it! So many interruptions!

LAGimals by rincewind-cz 2017-12-04T11:08:29Z ♥ 1

Game runs super smooth on computer, so not much lag. The levels didn't seem to be affected in any way by what I was clicking. Sometimes I would click on the correct creature and still have to click on them all before it would move on. The artwork is nice and I can see where playing on a touchscreen would have a different experience.

Lux Portable by teekeks 2017-12-04T10:55:30Z ♥ 0

Nice puzzle game, the puzzles were complex and having multiple balls made it a real challenge!

One Million Dollars by Luxorix Games 2017-12-04T10:34:23Z ♥ 1

Am I the only one upset the bar is no longer an option when you have money? Great game, the metaphor is too real x.x

Fast Frontier by Ohmi 2017-12-04T10:05:10Z ♥ 2

fun little game. It's hard to tell how powerful your ammo is, the shots seemed to do random damage, sometimes killing tanks in 1 hit others times multiple, not really tied to how many I had in store. I did shoot an incoming shot out of the air though, which made me laugh!

Escape the Deep by tgiant 2017-12-04T09:43:51Z ♥ 1

Very polished, it took me awhile to realize I was getting slower the more little guys I saved. Then I accidentally shot a little guy, wasn't expecting that!

Junk by jjjjason 2017-12-04T09:34:17Z ♥ 1

I just finished a game started by someone I see here in the comments, which is pleasing me to no end. Very neat idea to refresh an existing game!

Too Many Rules! by Who 2017-12-04T09:18:38Z ♥ 0

I liked this game, like others had said it sort of gives me a "keep talking and nobody explodes" vibe. Only problem is I had some contradictory rules generate (move lever when blue at 100%, push button when blue at 100%) and if I did one it would auto fail the other. Not bad overall and the control board was fun to manipulate :)
