LD29 — Beneath the Surface

SWAN QWOP by AtkinsSJ 2014-04-29T20:47:00

Help, I've fallen and I can't get up!

Acceptance by zatyka 2014-04-29T23:28:00

Very interesting. Nice work!

Chassis Driller by Griz 2014-04-29T23:14:00

Very awesome! Great concept, and fun to play! The music was pretty sweet as well.

Sinking Feeling by Gwinnell 2014-04-29T23:21:00

When I click the link, it says account suspended? D:

Inside Look Activity Book by rylgh 2014-04-29T01:04:00

Well, that was...unique.

Growth by bogdan.tana 2014-05-05T21:32:00

Too short! I didn't want it to end. :)

DIG! DIG! DIG! by Harsay 2014-05-05T21:22:00

Very tense and fun!

Kyle the Caiman in: Kyle's Dreamland by Gravity Games 2014-04-30T21:01:00

Nice! My gator guy would sometimes freeze when I changed dream levels though. :/

Dive! Dive! Dive! by voidstar69 2014-05-01T22:18:00

Pretty good. The single sound effect was a bit grating, though...

Wriggle Worm by gikdew 2014-04-30T21:14:00

Really good! Like others, I can't really see the theme here. Perhaps it would have been cool to be underground, and the worms leave trails in the dirt? Just a thought. Great work!

The Core Eaters by porglezomp 2014-04-29T23:31:00

Pretty awesome! I didn't quite get the hang of the controls, but it was really cool.

Dozer's Gem Jam by PoQA Games 2014-04-30T22:08:00

Really awesome job!

LD29 Jam : You Are The Magnet by robopossum 2014-04-30T21:45:00

Ever since I was young, I've said that I wanted to be a magnet when I grew up. They mocked me. All of them. Teachers, friends, my grandma. They said it was impossible. They said I could never be a magnet. Well look at me now, grandma. Look at me now.
(Great game btw)

Deep South Motel by iossif 2014-04-29T21:43:00

Very nice! I struggled a bit to figure out how the bottom floor worked, but beautiful art style and great concept!

Inside Yourself by nerdybirdy346 2014-04-30T21:54:00

Very creepy but good! It wasn't so much a game, as much as a story that you have to click to advance to the next section, but it was really great. Awesome job!

Icesome! by DNA Yarn 2014-05-05T21:06:00

Fun. The controls were a bit hard to grasp it first, but very nice game!

Going Down by Jimanzium 2014-05-05T21:30:00

Great concept, graphics, and audio! There's something about the jumping that's kind of unfair, though... Maybe you should be able to see farther ahead?

Deep Blue Surface by jinxly 2014-05-05T21:35:00

Really, really great! I loved the concept, music, and pixel art. If I could change one thing, I would maybe make you dive a little faster? Just to pick up the pace a bit.

Corpse Explorer by Velro 2014-04-30T00:11:00

The link doesn't work. :(

The Missing Potato by DragonMaster21 2014-04-29T23:38:00

I liked it. The light effect was pretty, but a little distracting at times. The walking animation kind of looked like the first part of that Evolution of Dance video. :D

Clone Escape by cudabear 2014-04-29T23:56:00

Really great! I love the limited amount of ammo.

Cemetery Secretary by Bekokstover 2014-04-29T21:19:00

Fantastic! The title screen looks sweet, by the way.

The Ice Pond by Vytheros 2014-04-29T21:51:00

Nice work, but I couldn't get past the tree. It said there was a blunt, metallic object in the nest, but I couldn't for the life of me get at it. I tried take object, metallic object, blunt metallic object, nest, hammer, and a few others. Also, the help function no longer works after the title screen. It's obvious that you put some work into this and it could be really cool if it was fleshed out a bit more.

Loose by Once Upon a Team 2014-04-29T23:19:00

Incredible! Really, really awesome.

SHOT H2O by hugamer 2014-04-30T22:28:00

Really cool! It's a bit easy though, it then it very quickly gets impossible. :)

Blockham's Sandpit by Eskoala 2014-04-29T21:03:00

Hooray, I found a horcrux!
This game was pretty similar to mine, in the aspect that the game was about digging up tiles for treasure. I have two suggestions, though:
1)Unique item textures, from what I've seen every treasure is just a star
2)The beeps seemed kind of random. Maybe that was intentional, but I had multiple beeps on places where there was no treasure

Undermined by NickMakesGames 2014-04-30T21:38:00

Very nice work! I personally felt it to be a bit repetitive, (maybe random events could happen that greatly influence people? Example: Rock collapse kills one miner, greatly lowers morale of the others?) but it was still a lot of fun to play. It looked and sounded really great, too!

Caeruleo by robodylan 2014-04-29T20:56:00

I couldn't get the game to work for some reason. It may have just been my computer, but I wasn't sure which application to run. I tried LD-29.exe, but nothing seemed to show up.

Unknown by Pietro Ferrantelli 2014-04-30T21:07:00

Really, really great! Fun to play, and looks nice too! If I had to make one suggestion, I would lower the sensitivity a bit (or maybe allow the player to adjust it). The quick panning was a little disorienting.

Strung Out by valid4life 2014-04-30T00:07:00

Those bottom fish are so smug.

Barry the Avalanche Dog by Delicious Code 2014-04-29T22:05:00

Pretty nice, but the gameplay could have been a bit more varied. Great work, though!

Jumpland Underground by KuGrou 2014-05-05T21:26:00

Very nice work!

2Metersbeneath by DrStahlbart 2014-05-01T21:58:00

Looks very nice!

Under My Bed by akymos 2014-04-29T22:17:00

Loved the art style! The gameplay got a bit tedious, though. Maybe make it harder?

Dig! by Newt_ 2014-04-29T21:52:00

@cudabear I'm glad someone picked up on that! Maybe in a future update I make it turn into a random piece of furniture in your bag. :)

MORTON by wademcgillis 2014-05-05T21:11:00

wat

A Politics Now by Nicoll Hunt 2014-04-29T21:13:00

Well, please don't sell my grandma for a hit.

Esc by Crumpet 2014-04-29T22:29:00

Very, very nice work.

NYC by Secret_Tunnel 2014-04-29T23:45:00

It didn't work for me! :( This game looked really neat, too.

Nutrition by jestar_jokin 2014-04-29T22:42:00

Pretty good! It's really hard, though.

Deep Down by Cheetoturkey 2014-04-29T22:54:00

Pretty good! The music was great, right at the start I accidentally placed a wall in front of the starting room and then I couldn't get out.

Beneath The Surface by adamwoolridge 2014-04-30T21:11:00

Very original! Great work!

Minecart Rollercoaster by Bronaldplo 2014-05-01T22:02:00

Nice little game. Really great graphics! It could have done with some audio, though...

Skeleton Invasion by Lee1121 2014-05-01T22:07:00

Really cool mechanics!

Into the Light by okeedokeben 2014-05-01T22:04:00

Really cool animations and music. Great work!

Another Day at Work by Evil Scotsman 2014-05-01T22:22:00

Reminds me of Stanley Parable!

Glueck Auf! by xandgate 2014-04-30T22:21:00

Sehr gut!

Focus Shift by ForeignGuyMike 2014-04-29T22:13:00

Awesome! I couldn't beat the second level, but I'm really bad at these types of games, so it's not your fault.

Digging for Gold by JoshDBB 2014-04-30T00:03:00

Really nice puzzle game! It could have done with some sound, though.

Drowning in Problems by Notch 2014-04-30T22:39:00

Very interesting!

Mycorrhiza by Urfoex 2014-04-30T21:19:00

Looks very nice! Too bad it's not for windows, though. :(

The Captain's Holiday by qualia 2014-04-30T21:22:00

Nice work! Fun game.

LD31 — Entire Game on One Screen

Tightrope Theatre by AdventureIslands 2014-12-08T04:41:00

LOVED IT! My favorite so far!

Little Dude's Epic Adventure by Jim Haslett 2014-12-09T22:48:00

Really liked the narrator! Also the movement animations looked very nice.

Stick Ninja by tompudding 2014-12-08T22:51:00

Wow! Loved it! I especially liked the slow motion.
(Was this done with Python in Pygame? If so, can I ask how you got all of the files into a single exe? I've used py2exe, but that still requires a resources folder.)

Punch Squad by Sos 2014-12-08T04:45:00

Not sure what just happened, but I liked it!

Dads Gold by Crushenator 2014-12-11T00:30:00

WOW! Love love love! Fantastic job!

The Last Standwich by Lawls 2014-12-08T04:23:00

Nice little game! I couldn't figure out how to make the sandwich though...

Make War, Not Science! by Budi 2014-12-09T00:57:00

Very nice! Difficult, too!

Balls by Troyan 2014-12-09T22:40:00

Interesting. Maybe add some difficulty somehow?

bricky block by quaternary 2014-12-08T22:48:00

Very slick and fun to play. Great work!

One Scene Prison by nbilyk 2014-12-09T01:33:00

Played it all the way to the end. Great work!

One Screen Game by swipefaststudios 2014-12-09T01:22:00

Haha those instructions were awesome! I liked the game a lot. The total restart was a bit unforgiving, though.

Dead Pixel by The Jahn 2014-12-08T04:20:00

Very, very fun! Love it! Reminds me a bit of Super Hexagon.

LD scan by NickMakesGames 2014-12-09T22:54:00

Really impressive! I had trouble with getting the scans right, but that's probably just because I'm dumb. :)

The Interview by Lacaranian 2014-12-09T01:47:00

Hooray, I got hired! Overall, very nice game! It was really funny, but a little too slow-paced for me, especially waiting for the characters to switch. I loved the unique characters though! Nice work!

SMS by Newt_ 2014-12-08T03:52:00

Yeah, sorry about that! The crashes should be fixed now!

SMS by Newt_ 2014-12-09T02:27:00

@TheMonsterFromTheDeep There's only one ending as of right now. The story plays out slightly differently depending on whether on not you encourage Dan and how you react to Fayad, though.

Bloodbath by FrazzyBob 2014-12-09T22:24:00

Has potential! I couldn't find a weapon though?

Das Tank Game by RaycoSantana 2014-12-10T23:07:00

Actually pretty fun! Looks really good! The controls were a bit wonky, but maybe that's because I don't have an xbox controller.

Little Town by Wevel 2014-12-10T23:31:00

Has a lot of potential! I found it a little confusing, but interesting nonetheless!

Sweep Stacks by excaliburjs 2014-12-11T00:34:00

Very sleek and fun! Could see myself playing this for hours on mobile!

Mind Words by leffe108 2014-12-09T22:42:00

Pretty barebones, but I was surprised by how unique and interesting the concept is. Great work!

Last Ark by Nuclear Napalm 2014-12-11T00:25:00

Didn't love the abrupt endings, but the gameplay was very fun! By far the longest I've spent playing a LD game!

Trivial Travails by AAGH Games 2014-12-09T22:05:00

Not bad. The music was a bit grating, though. :)

Screen Takeover by MikeTheWayne 2014-12-10T23:42:00

Nice use of the theme! Liked the concept, too! It was a bit slow, though. Good job overall!

Adventure Smasher by Windmill Games 2014-12-10T23:25:00

Looks really really awesome!

RGB by Conk 2014-12-08T23:01:00

Very sleek and fun to play. Nice sounds too. If possible though, I'd ditch the installer.

Swotch by Ulydev 2014-12-09T22:28:00

Wow, very nice. Easily one of the most fun entries I've played!

They Call Me Trap Savage by SpartanIceCream 2014-12-09T01:28:00

Hahahahaha game of the year!

Evolution & Survival by pontooncity 2014-12-09T01:35:00

Honestly, I have no idea what to do. Sorry!

SMBH (Survival Meets Bullet Hell) by Coolway99 2014-12-10T23:48:00

Nice work! Fun bullet dodge game!

none by Frederick Purifoy 2014-12-09T01:17:00

Nice, I loved the sick harpsichord track in the background! :) The controls were a little wonky though. I would have just gone with the standard four-directions instead of a rotate and forward/back.

Crunchy - The Kawaii Roach by AinaSG 2014-12-09T22:32:00

Loved it! The squish was horrifying, haha

Nuclear Power Plant Simulator 2014 by Pfilzweg 2014-12-08T02:10:00

Hey, I don't think that the first link is Web.

My Way Out by victorafael 2014-12-08T04:47:00

WOW! Awesome job! It was a little too hard for me though, but then again, that's not saying much. :)

Smash the Rebels! by michel94 2014-12-09T22:36:00

Nice work! Really difficult, too! If I were to make this into a full game I would maybe add ways to build more farms and/or reduce the fog.

Do you want to kill a showman? by jblatta 2014-12-09T01:51:00

Wow, fantastic 3D models!

SIRTET by stray 2014-12-11T00:02:00

Pretty unique idea, and also really slick. Nice work!

☃ Jingle Calls ☃ by C63 Industries 2014-12-09T22:12:00

Interesting, nice job! I agree with several others in that the dialogue options got a little overwhelming, though.

Grandpa's Grid by NoGrapes 2014-12-09T01:08:00

Wow, awesome! It's pretty difficult too, but I really like the different weapons!

TVScape by EsirInGame 2014-12-10T23:57:00

Really nice idea, a shame it's somewhat buggy. :/ For anyone else who had screen size problems, I changed the screen size to 1280x720 and it worked fine.

Asking Out Simulator by sanchitgulati 2014-12-08T03:19:00

Very, very sleek! There were a few typos that distracted me a bit, but overall, very fun. And hard! It seems we had similar interpretations of the "Single Screen" theme. I guess great minds think alike! :)

Duck, Jump, Die by Divitos 2014-12-09T01:53:00

Wow, I loved it! The simple but fun gameplay, the music, the hats, everything! Great job!

LD32 — An Unconventional Weapon

Graze by Merigrim 2015-04-20T22:31:00

Very nice work! It was a little too hard for me, but everything seems very polished!

Saucery by mockthebear 2015-04-22T23:59:00

Wow, what a unique idea! Finding out all the different spells and how they worked was a lot of fun. It does get repetitive though, I stopped after completing round 10.

Bacannon by donan 2015-04-25T16:36:00

Cute little game, great job on the art! The gameplay got a bit monotonous, but I'm sure that could be fixed just by adding a few more enemies. :)

Stupid Bird by Orava 2015-04-22T23:39:00

Very nice looking! An initial goal or something could have been useful, but great work nonetheless!

Samarkhanda, the Dancing Sword by Mak 2015-04-22T23:49:00

Unique gameplay, catchy soundtrack! The only thing I can think to improve would be the graphics. Great work!

Hitchhiker's Tales by Tangible Games 2015-04-20T22:10:00

Wow, really fun! I liked how you could just pick up whatever was next to you and chuck it. :) Great job!

Conversion by LabOne 2015-04-20T21:28:00

Wow, that was a lot of fun! Loved the enemies crashing through the furniture. Awesome job!

Flight 417 by martymon 2015-04-21T00:02:00

Cute little game. Nice work!

No One Expects Abe Lincoln by breadstix 2015-04-23T00:04:00

A little unpolished, but congratulations on finishing Ludum Dare! Improvement will come with practice!

Isolation by nicklink483 2015-04-21T00:57:00

Hooray, I finally beat it! Very cool and clever game, great work!

Fat guy with floating tyre by Wir 2015-04-23T00:19:00

Uh...that was funny! :) Good job!

Hey Chicken! by Jacs 2015-04-23T00:33:00

Simple, and yet addicting. Good work!

Extinction Explosion!! by sugarbyte 2015-04-21T00:35:00

Original theme, not-so-original gameplay. Nice work though, I laughed at the dialogue screens.

Sophistication Annihilation by Newt_ 2015-04-20T16:29:00

@el_kloklo: Which words? Also, you can't fire a missile until a TV comes onto the screen, so maybe that was it.

Sophistication Annihilation by Newt_ 2015-04-22T03:09:00

@RyanNielson Thanks for playing, and for the suggestion! I'm not sure if this is what you mean, but when you a guess a word incorrectly, you can either backspace or just start typing to clear the panel and enter a new word.

TIMEstahp! by parzivalTheVirtual 2015-04-20T21:37:00

Gameplay and concept were awesome, it was a lot of fun to play! You might want to fix those red blocks though, the caused the game to bug out and freeze.

ColourBots by Gunn3rboi 2015-04-21T00:32:00

I jumped out of the map! :) Nice work though, it was scary the first time one of the robots popped up behind me. It might benefit if they spawned elsewhere as well. There's no reason to run around that whole complex map that you made if you can just spawncamp and get points.

Hold Space To Fart by talecrafter 2015-04-25T17:01:00

Very nice art style!

Vermin and Cheese by skiper4e 2015-04-20T21:57:00

Cute little game, I was pretty confused on what to do though.

The War Dog by Xinelu 2015-04-20T22:27:00

Very very solid audio and mood. Gameplay could be developed more, but it really makes you think!

Flail Rider by jushii 2015-04-23T00:09:00

Cute game, loved the art style. The controls were a little frustrating though, at least on keyboard.

Trap For Ants by wellingtonbecker 2015-04-22T23:43:00

Very fun little game! The magnification effect was really well done, great job!

LiceCity by Blister 2015-04-20T21:50:00

Looks amazing! Gameplay got a bit dull after a while, but really great work nonetheless!

The Hand That Feeds by Skinny Jean Death 2015-04-25T17:29:00

Stunning artwork, the gameplay could use some work but really really great job and lots of potential!

Armory of W.A.T. by dallonf 2015-04-20T21:44:00

Ton of fun, loved the different weapons. Fantastic job!

Letter Spray by Megapiemanphd 2015-04-21T00:45:00

A lot of fun, also loved the voiceover/music/"charming programmer art". Too hard for me, but great work anyway!

I Hate Golf by Geared Games 2015-04-25T16:31:00

One of the most fun games I've played thus far! Awesome job!

Dusk by nov1kk 2015-04-21T00:16:00

Very great game! I had a lot of fun playing, it really makes you think. It could benefit from some checkpoints; I almost made it to the end of the second level but died, and I didn't have the heart to go through it again. Great work though!

P.S. Where's the unconventional weapon?

Dare To Juice by Dejvo 2015-04-25T16:18:00

Nice job! Of course the gameplay could use some finishing, but that will come with just a little bit more work.

Eraser by celisoft 2015-04-20T22:14:00

Interesting idea. The mechanics and animation were a little clunky, but good work nonetheless!

Je Suis Charlie by Paulozz 2015-04-20T21:54:00

Interesting use of real life events. Maybe change some of the key bindings so that you don't fire words just by moving up or down?

The Rock the Paper and the Scissors by BIZM 2015-04-23T00:25:00

Wow, amazing! And difficult too! Top marks all around.

Word Battle by cicanci 2015-04-21T00:06:00

Nice job! The game might have been improved by allowing the user to just type instead of having to drag and click, but a very good idea!

Bunny Plane Massacre by inappropriatebeeguin 2015-04-20T23:59:00

Few sounds are as satisfying as that of a group of bunnies being obliterated. Top marks.

SolSurvivor by Blobo 2015-04-20T22:21:00

Wow, what a great concept! The game's pretty hard, but fun enough that I kept playing. :) Love the music too! Awesome job!

Disaster Theatre by 12 Pechás Of Souls 2015-04-23T00:16:00

Loved the art style and the unique mechanic! It was a bit difficult to understand what to do, but I think I got it at the end. :)

Kawaii Destruction by Kawaii Game Studios 2015-04-20T22:04:00

How do you get off this screen? http://i.imgur.com/XjEmYrI.jpg
