LD54 — Limited Space

LIGHTDANCER by xk_the_name 2023-10-07T14:15:00Z

Artwork is excellent and creates a great atmosphere. and gameplay is also smooth. Hard to believe that it was created in just 48 hours.

The game has a very strong atmosphere, which is enhanced by many details such as the red eyes in the darkness and the sound of the bowstring when pulling the bow.

It's a really good game, well done!

No More Grandma! by eroxxie 2023-10-06T18:24:21Z

Interesting theme, but can someone really eat and vomit at the same time? :laughing:

Verliies by Ace17 2023-10-06T14:19:29Z

It really captures the theme well, but unfortunately, I'm not very good at platformer games, so I wasn't able to complete the game. However, I found every aspect of the game very appealing. Well done!

Orbitum Scaterum V2 (LD42 Revived) by TolMera 2023-10-05T05:31:16Z

Looks like it's not running correctly on my mac. I see some stones falling on screen, and nothing can be controlled, no "main character" on screen, and nothing happed when I press "WASD".

Don't Skip the Ship! by Bloham 2023-10-05T08:59:30Z

This game is so much fun! I think it has the potential to evolve into a fully-fledged game, it's very suit to play on mobile. Great job!

Snake Snake Boom by cleitoneldorn 2023-10-06T13:33:00Z

I would like to present you with the "Best Sound Effects in a Snake Game" award. This game is really fun,I had a great time playing it. Well done!

Limited RAM Developer by Diccuric_Sigeon 2023-10-06T13:14:58Z

I encountered a bug while using the Virtual Basement code for programming. Seriously, hahaha!

1696597577898.png

Looks like you wrote some code somewhere that might divide by zero.

Anyway, this game is so funny, I couldn't stop laughing as I played. You did an amazing job.

Astro's Ladder by alec 2023-10-05T15:06:48Z

This game has some really interesting ideas, and the visuals and music are absolutely stunning. Although there are a few minor issues, like occasionally getting stuck after climbing up a ladder and not being able to come back down even when in the same position. Overall it's a fantastic game.

Mini Mason by NekuSoul 2023-10-05T16:41:18Z

At first glance, it may seem simple, but once I start placing a few bricks, I realize how much creativity this game offers. I have to say, it's a fantastic game with plenty of innovative ideas.

Limited Ssssspace by Quoclon 2023-10-06T10:33:09Z

Super fun Snake game! I hope they keep improving it because the concept is great. Well done!

Cyberframe EDEN by kiririn51 2023-10-05T07:31:59Z

Can't believe this game was made in just 3 days! I got completely hooked. Awesome game, and gook job!

Bucket Buffet by Don Fouts 2023-10-07T15:40:26Z

I love the creativity of this game, it perfectly matches the theme and is very interesting.

The physics effects are slightly "unusual," but they don't feel strange at all. In fact, they fit very well and maybe the author intentionally adjusted them to create that effect.

It's really enjoyable to play, well done!

Comfort by Anper 2023-10-05T16:00:59Z

Good idea! Graphics is clean, and the use of music in the game is pretty well. Just a few thoughts: Is the difficulty too low? The fact that the character hp auto regenerates makes the concept of enemies and losing health outside of comfort zone ineffective. Most of the time, all I need to do is rush through without any real consequence. Even when your health is low, just have to wait for a while. But overall, I think this game is great and has a lot of potential for expansion. More abilities and interactions with the comfort zone would be fantastic. I'm really looking forward to it! Great job!

Deep Dreams by PoshDan 2023-10-06T04:49:34Z

A fun game! Good graphic and music. Although the current content is limited and there are no upgrade options, the only goal is to continuously repeat the mining cycle. However, I believe this is due to the lack of time, and when it is released in its complete version, it will definitely become a super fun game.

One small suggestion, perhaps could make the collision range of the block a little looser. Currently, it's difficult to fly out when there is only one block width for the passage.

Overall, I really enjoy it. Mining is quite interesting!

Spaced out by Marcus Otterstrom 2023-10-06T13:54:46Z

e creativity is outstanding, and the visuals and sound are also impressive. It's one of the best games I've seen that matches its theme so well. Well done!

Amoeba Feast by Peco 2023-10-06T05:38:48Z

My best score is 42 in time mode, and the strategy is to only collect green and red, unless need blue and yellow to eliminate each other. Awesome game, a lot of fun, and graphics are very cute. I really enjoy it, well done!

Tiny Kingdom by spider__the second 2023-10-06T08:36:25Z

The rules are really interesting, but the timing is too fast for me. I hope there could be an update with a simpler or unlimited time mode. Overall, the concept is really cool and I really like it.

Spinstack by massivejack 2023-10-05T13:17:52Z

This game is absolutely amazing! I think you could turn it into a mobile game directly. I will definitely play it whenever I am bored.

The visuals and music are both very pleasing, and the gameplay strikes a perfect balance between entertaining relaxation and exciting challenges.

By the way, is it possible to set a limit on how fast the island tilt? There were a few times when a small block caused it tilt rapidly and collapse before I could even adjust. But maybe that's also part of the fun, hahaha.

All in all, this game is fantastic!

If I Fits, I Sits! by cheesepencil 2023-10-07T14:44:02Z

Such a cute game! My cat also loves trying to squeeze into boxes of any size, it's really funny. I love your game <3

Gremlin Books Incorporated by bramreth 2023-10-05T12:26:25Z

This game is really fun and has amazing visuals and voice acting. Even though it ran quite slowly on my Mac, I still enjoyed playing it. Great jobs and nom nom nom nom nom nom...

Clockwork Express by mira 2023-10-05T07:50:32Z

This is so much fun, like a sliding puzzles game. I really like the graphics and musics.

Roots, for LD 54 by slimefriend 2023-10-06T18:37:48Z

Very cute graphics, I really like them. The game seems to lack some guidance, but considering it's a Jam version, it's understandable. Looking forward to future updates with more plants and challenges (how about pests chewing on your roots). Overall, well done!

Super Low Memory Bot by LaserPanzerWal 2023-10-06T12:27:45Z

Good puzzle game, the visuals and music in the game are incredibly stylish and unique.

What to leave behind? by Owinmowe 2023-10-05T16:29:26Z

The game has stunning visuals and a mesmerizing soundtrack. I believe adding more endings would make the game even better. The only minor issue is that the text display speed is a bit slow, as it takes a while to see the complete content. Looking forward to seeing more updates and expansions. Thank you for creating this amazing game.

Shipping Empire by PerfectSquare 2023-10-07T16:23:19Z

I found a bug :bug: , you can stack items on the left side of ship.

1696695606990.jpg

Diana's Magical Journey by GameDevTraum 2023-10-06T12:52:52Z

Good art and music, I like that cat :kissing_cat: , well done!

X-13 VIRTUOUS MISSION by Riesyeti 2023-10-05T04:33:43Z

The mech controls in this game are absolutely amazing, especially when it comes to accelerating and rotating the camera. It truly feels like you're sitting inside a mechanical weapon. It would be even better if there were some feedback added to the gunshots.

Space - Limited Edition by Thibaud 2023-10-06T11:14:01Z

I kill my rocket at day 1 with 6% risks. Ah, this is the space industry, always full of risks. I like this tycoon game, however lacks guidance, took me several attempts to how to play it. Adding some upgrade options explanations could make it better. Looking forward to the next version. The game is really fun. Nick work!

Limited City by xCarl 2023-10-05T03:19:13Z

A fun and addictive tycoon game that's compact and finely crafted. Though it doesn't offer a lot of content yet, the overall game structure is well-defined. Perhaps adding some small challenges could make the game even more engaging. For example, placing certain tiles next to each other could give you bonus rewards. All in all, I'm really enjoying it!

SlimeTastic! by Alpha Wolf Studios 2023-10-05T05:50:00Z

The visuals and music in the game are fantastic, and the gameplay involves merging and eliminating elements on the board. However, there's a lack of guidance in player controls. I couldn't find any relevant hints, so it took me a while to figure out the correct way to play.

Here's what I discovered:

- Clicking on a slime selects it (although there's no feedback, you did select it). - Using WASD keys moves the selected slime. You can merge them when you move them onto suitable slimes. The merging rules can be found in the pause menu.

Overall, it's pretty good, but it would be even better if the control scheme could be optimized.

Spooky Space by Wbertrand 2023-10-05T13:57:18Z

This game is really awesome! The creativity behind it is outstanding and the level design is cleverly done, making it very enjoyable. The visuals and music are also quite good. I'm really looking forward to playing more levels in the future.

Leapfrog Solitaire by 0x746564 2023-10-06T09:55:10Z

The game design is full of creativity and perfectly captures the theme.

However, I seem to have found a loophole where having a K is equivalent to an instant win. Because you can repeatedly use K jump over others until clear the deck.

Perhaps there could be some way to balance the power of high-value cards. For example, every time use a card, the card value will increase one or increase value of the card be jumped, increase the K will loop back to A. This would ensure that high-value card are not always overpowered. Just some unverified ideas, hope they can be helpful to you.

Overall I think the game is great an you've done a nice job!

A Little Bag Story by Vidu 2023-10-07T08:54:03Z

The art is outstanding, I almost forgot that it was made in just 48 hours.

The gameplay is simple, but it still requires some thinking to strategize with your combat items and maintain a balance with the loot.

This game is really cute, well done!

HEXAK by Phillip Scott 2023-10-06T12:34:01Z

Awesome art! Great job!

Untitled Goo Game by RumiaObsessed 2023-10-05T06:14:27Z

The visuals are really unique and the game is quite challenging. It took me a long time to complete it. After a few failed attempts, I found a easier way. When game started, go inside the room on the right, and take water bottle box on the left, then kept moving upwards to collect the fuel, then backtrack to boat directly, continuously pressing X to clear the way, if lucky can return boat before bottles runs out. The way on right side of "fuel room" is not good, the bottles may not be enough to clear the way. Funny game, great job!

Pixel Piles by Gabriel Chan 2023-10-07T15:26:10Z

I build a shelter with bricks and hide inside, so no bricks can hurt me. But the cost is that the score is very low. xD

Brilliant creativity, and the animation is top-notch. I love the cat. Well done!

Too Maneon Loots by lastuck 2023-10-06T16:57:33Z

The music has a great rhythm and the gameplay is really enjoyable.

Even though I haven't quite figured out how to survive after level 2, the speed of collecting items is way beyond what I can handle, but I still find it incredibly addictive.

Well done!

Suck it to Them! by AmberFall92 2023-10-07T13:52:23Z

I won! got about 26800 scores.

This is the smoothest 2D shooting game I've played in this jam. Graphics are also impressive, and really love the effects when hitting enemy.

There's just one small issue. After reaching the 10th wave, I'm facing a serious lack of damage. Although can absorb the enemies themselves to attack, they often occupy multiple cells without providing enough damage. This makes the late-battles a tough and drawn-out struggle. But of course, this isn't a major problem, as seeing such a complete work in the jam is already amazing.

Overall, you team area really great!

Super Cube by Senso 2023-10-06T16:06:52Z

Impressive feedback effects, the graphics and sound are both beautifully crafted, and the gameplay is incredibly smooth. I believe it would be a perfect fit for a mobile version. Well done!

Brain Killer by LiveInside 2023-10-05T08:37:41Z

The artwork and music are really outstanding, I like the mood. However, I believe the gameplay can be improvement. How about increasing the difficulty with each level? For example, adding an extra digit in code game for each level. Also, I didn't quite understand how to play the Tetris mini-game. Even though I didn't place all the blocks on the final day, I still saw the completion screen. Overall, good game and well done!

disembARK by Crygos 2023-10-07T08:28:16Z

The game is a lot of fun and I had a great time playing it. The voice acting is fantastic and adds a lot of enjoyment to the game. However, as mentioned in the description, it doesn't run smoothly on Mac. Every time I finish playing, it causes my browser to become unresponsive. But overall, it's still a really great game. Well done!

YEETUS by Pinky Toast 2023-10-05T06:45:46Z

Awesome game! The gameplay is super fun and the visuals are absolutely stunning. The difficulty level is just a tad high, though. I often get so focused on attacking the enemies that I forget to watch my step, haha. Overall, it's really great. Well done!

Narrow Cells by StvUP 2023-10-05T06:28:23Z

Really fantastic, feels very close to a completed product in every aspect. Graphic, Music, Control, everything is good. Unfortunately, I don't often play this type of game, so the farthest I could reach was meet the "the guided missiles". I saw screenshots of scenes that I haven't encountered yet, sad. Overall, great job!

Space, Yarr! by SnekOfSpice 2023-10-06T12:11:05Z

I managed to complete this game in about 20 minutes, and it's a fantastic physics puzzle game. It took me a little while to adapt to the UI controls, and the layout seemed a bit confusing at first. However, once I figured it out, it wasn't complicated at all. The functions in each area are very clear, but it might be even better if some inactive UI could be hidden. I had a great time playing it, thank you team!

Burned Out, Shut In by cawfee_art 2023-10-06T16:36:57Z

The game has beautiful visuals and soothing music, which create a relaxing atmosphere.

Although the content is not extensive, there are attempts to add some different things, such as interactive scenes and different options leading to different outcomes. If more development time had been given, I believe there would be even more interesting content.

One issue I encountered was during the "painting". I was unsure of what to do exactly. It seemed like a puzzle game, but once I moved a piece, I couldn't move it again. However, despite the puzzle remaining unsolved, clicking the "Next" button still allowed me to continue the story.

Overall, I think the game is well done, and I particularly like the character designs. Keep up the good work!

Packed to the Gills by npckc 2023-10-05T17:04:45Z

It's a very casual game that helps me relax. The visuals and music are soothing and enjoyable.

Snowlord by minjutin 2023-10-06T08:19:31Z

It took me a little while to figure out how to play the game, but once I got the hang of it, it became really interesting. The game has a joyful theme and graphics, and the gameplay also requires a lot of strategy, I have played many times. Good job!

Quantumine Capture by VicoXue 2023-10-12T03:14:02Z

I think it can be released as the full version. As a Minesweeper game enthusiast, I truly find it very enjoyable to play.

Clogged Tube by braktheman 2023-10-05T15:22:23Z

Got 8197m, I like this game, very funny. One small suggestion for improvement is that there could be more challenge after subway starts moving, now it feels a bit quiet. I think it would be great to have more dynamic or random elements. Like someone holding a pizza accidentally dropping it on the ground and blocking a tile, or someone on a skateboard zooming around. Overall, a very good game, great job!

Don't Get Crushed! by RossK 2023-10-05T04:22:43Z

This game is a lot of fun, and the trick is to not rush and take as few steps as possible. Make sure to only move to safe spots and wait until the next set of traps open before moving again.

InvenStory by pro4 2023-10-05T04:11:01Z

This game is absolutely addictive and incredibly fun. The graphics are stunning, and the music is fantastic. The levels contain some puzzle elements, so you have to use your brain to figure out what exactly is needed based on the mission description. It's challenging, but that's what makes it so great. Well done!

Limitverse (ludum-54) by eugene-b 2023-10-05T03:47:15Z

A cool 2D shooting game that I had a blast playing. Once, I shot a bullet behind an enemy, and it bounced rapidly between the wall and the enemy, just like in a brick-breaking game. It was so much fun!

However, some of the UI elements seemed ineffective. The health bar never seemed to decrease (even though I did die, maybe it was just a display issue?), and the score in the top right corner didn't change either.

The visuals are fantastic, though. I love the decorations in the rooms, and the character designs and illustrations are really well done.

One of the most impressive aspects is the music. It's full of rhythm and reminds me of some classic arcade games I used to play.

Overall, great job!

Before The Trip by Nilan 2023-10-05T12:49:16Z

@antarian Thank you very much for your comment. I will respond to the points one by one: - the hover tooltip: yes, It was originally planned but had to be cancelled due to time constraints. I am also unsure would be appropriate to add it for now, since the jam is ongoing, I don't know will it create unfair. - full version of game: If the feedback we receive is positive, we'll definitely consider it, why not xD. But I think should wait until the jam is finished. - volume issue: will verify this as soon as possible and consider adding a settings menu to change volume.

Thank you again <3

Give Me BBQ by Surune 2023-10-06T05:14:24Z

It's extremely addictive to play, I couldn't help but play for dozens of minutes. The graphics and music are excellent, creating a relaxing atmosphere.

Just a little suggestion, sometime the checkmark confusing me, would it be better if use different color? For example, yellow for one side cooked, green for fully cooked.

Funny game, nice work!

Brick Breaker: Colors by Game Dev With Michael 2023-10-06T09:26:29Z

Brilliant concept! Unfortunately, the difficulty level is too high for me. I haven't been able to pass the second level yet. Hope in the future there will be a control option using mouse movement.

Running out of space by Tal28 2023-10-05T13:33:33Z

Got 67! Really fun, now I need to take a break and rest my wrist which is sore from pressing the space bar rapidly. Tip: the faster you press the space bar, the faster the bullets will shoot.

Work Space by Tunicata 2023-10-06T14:47:14Z

Great game! The graphics are excellent, and the story really fits the theme. I really like the game, it brings back memories of the past. Well done!

CaveBots by quasilyte 2023-10-06T18:00:10Z

Seeing an RTS game in a 48-hour competition was nothing short of a miracle! And to top it off, the game had a solid gameplay and impressive visuals, which is the style I really love.

When I first started playing, I was a bit confused and it took me about 5 minutes to figure out how the game works, but after that, it went smoothly.

Overall, I believe this game has great potential for expansion, and I am looking forward to more updates. Well done!

Nice Park! by Barbabulle 2023-10-05T17:18:58Z

The game's performance is mind-blowing, and it's hard to imagine how they managed to create such a complete game in just 3 days. The attention to detail in the game is exquisite, the smoke rising from the vehicles, the effect of driving through leaves, and even the sound of vehicles colliding. Each vehicle has a different driving feel, which is impressive. I believe the developers must have put in a tremendous amount of time and effort into these details, and they did a fantastic job.

Clearing space by Sevansevan 2023-10-07T14:39:13Z

Great puzzle game with box pushing mechanics. The puzzle designs are really clever, and many levels require careful thinking and multiple attempts.

Hope a feature could be added to remember the last edit and show as a dashed box, so that I can have some reference after restart a level.

Overall, it's a fantastic game! Well done!

unBound by mz_eth 2023-10-07T15:09:12Z

Amazing! And all of this was made in just 48 hours. Everything is good, the art is beautiful, the music is rhythmic, and I even noticed a cool light effect animation when activating a checkpoint. You've really put a lot of effort into this and done an amazing job!

LD57 — Depths

Deck Digger by ghettobastler 2025-04-16T13:42:36Z

It's a very interesting game with deep strategic thinking, I think it's worth developing into a complete game.

North Depths by voidsrc 2025-04-10T09:07:04Z

I am a big fan of idle clicker game, very impressive art, and game is fun! Unfortunately I didn't complete the game, after running the game for a while, page will reload due take too many memory. Maybe my mac is too old. Hope can support save game progress in the future. Anyway, good job!

LD58 — Collector

Idle Badger by lectvs 2025-10-12T10:28:28Z

It's so fun, and I don't know why I feel like playing a horror game, my heart keeps pounding, definitely most intense idle game I've played.

Collect all these stones! by Xahon 2025-10-09T07:15:43Z

Cool, I love idle game, and not just a game where upgrade whatever they have, there are some strategy, such as workers should being eliminated in the later stages to avoid wasting the efficiency of advanced machines. I like this game.

Black Friday OFF 99.9999999999999% by ThatFirey 2025-10-08T07:21:22Z

@thatfirey Regarding the issue of game crashes after clicking the play button. I don't know why but looks like you have to wait for some audio resources totally downloaded, after then click the play button. Check the javascript console will see the progress, or just wait for the theme music start playing. Here's the information in console, percentage has display bug, but bytes was correct. 截屏2025-10-08 15.09.19.png

City of Promotion by Nilan 2025-10-08T07:03:29Z

@mrdumpling Awesome! I didn't finish the tutorial before the deadline, was worried no one can understand how to play XD

City of Promotion by Nilan 2025-10-09T06:19:31Z

@anaconda-games You're right, I don't know why the camera movement speed is always strange. It's always different between the editor and the actual runtime. I need to find out where's the problem. Anyway, thank you for playing~

City of Promotion by Nilan 2025-10-10T14:10:02Z

Thanks everyone, I am glad that my game concept has attracted you~

body, birds, drop by tercs 2025-10-09T07:58:22Z

There are some very special elements in the game, such as opened windows, people falling from heights, and birds with special psychological implications.

If it's just the style, I think it's pretty good. At least when I see these, I can make some associations and think about the hidden stories behind them. It has great potential.

But if it expresses some of your inner thoughts, I am always willing to chat with you for anything, games, pets, foods... I believe everyone here is willing to do this, take it easy, friend :)

Please don't touch my collection by zidan-banan 2025-10-18T08:55:42Z

Really funny game, I've always love these single scene puzzle game. Just stuck for a long time on "&" symbol, I didn't expect it's a bottle opener too. XD
