A nice little game ! Eveyrthing would of felt a tad more polished if you added some simple sound effects ! Still, I enjoyed playing it, cheers :) !

A nice little game ! Eveyrthing would of felt a tad more polished if you added some simple sound effects ! Still, I enjoyed playing it, cheers :) !
Very cool concept and juicy pixel art :) !
I really enjoyed the smooth music and sound effects :) !! A nice creation, I enjoyed the little puff of dust that appears when you hit the ground :) ! Cheers !
My favorite part of this game is the idea of a wizard turning mad using his magic powers ! Truly interesting and a theme that can be worked on further to make something very unique :) !
A really fun game ! One of the games I've spent the most time on in this LD so far :) !Cheers :) !
I really like those shadows and glowing graphics !! The gameplay was little confusing however ! But all in all a very solid game entry :) ! Cheers
AWESOME GAME !!! Such a cool and simple concept :) !I also really like the cute little car models and the smoke trail they leave behind !
The more gold, the harder, nice simple concept that goes brilliantly with the theme ! Well done, cheers :) !
I really loved the music, calming , smooth ! Simple and appealing art style :) ! I also liked the concept of shaped phobia !
That was a fun little game !
Punchy music, satisfying coffee noise ! I also really like the animated juicy main menu :) ! Great game jam entry !
Thanks :) !
Thanks so much for playing :) !!! As for the music, I must admit it's not my strong point :D, definitely need to improve that for the next Ludum Dare !
Hey ! Thanks all for the feedback !! The difficulty increases each time you have a slime get stuck to you ! That's the reason why it can increase so fast :) !
Thanks everyone for the feedback :) !!!
Thanks so much :) ! Your words are so motivating !! I'll be making a Youtube behind the scenes video soon so keep an eye out for that :) ! Cheers !
Hey ! A lot of you have said the game makes you think of Edmund Mcmillen (end is night) and world of goo ! It's truly delighful to hear that since those are some of my favorite creations :) !! Cheers to all !
Thanks to all :)))) !!!
Thanks so much Sholf !! If you had reached 100 you would of unlocked the SECRET character :)) !! Anyway I really appreciate your quality feedback ! And yes... the music is pretty weak ! Something to improve for my next LD !
So much great feedback ! Such a wonderful wonderful reward for all the effort I put into this game during this week end :) !
I'm shaking with joy at all this marvellous feedback :) ! Thanks so much everyone ! Cheers :) !
Thanks everyone once again :) !!! Thanks to all your feedback I've realized there are a bunch of ways I could improve and polish the game :) ! Cheers !
I'm so happy to hear that so many of you have noticed the Edmund Mcmillen artistic influence :) !
Thanks !! A behind the scenes video will be coming out soon on my Youtube channel : BlackthornProd !
Thanks so much everyone :), your words are so motivating, I simply love this community and will do my very best to make it proud !!
Awesome feedback ! Thanks everyone ! I'm starting to think that I should maybe (once I've completed my current project), polish this one up and improve it and then post it on the app store :) !!
Thanks everyone for the in depth feedback ! Your advice on improving Be Yourself is truly wonderful ! Cheers !
I love the head models and the lighting effects ! Nice atmosphere ! But the game is a little hard to quick !
The art is magical ! The only frustrating problem is that I'm always dying as soon as I push the second lever...Anyway beuatiful creation !
Looking forward to this one :) !
This game is REALLY JUICY !! Wonderful slow motion effect when ever you get hit, the shots have a great impact, the sound is really nice !
Nice creation :) ! With an interesting take on the theme ! Being a farm like game is made me think a little of Supercell's Hay Day (from an art stand point) !
Hey ! I really like the idea :) ! Simple and full of possibilities ! The game is also filled with cool little animation like that juicy looking sun and fierce bolt of lightning ! Cheers :) !
I like the japonese atmosphere ! The controls are however a little slow for me ! Still a nice Ludum Dare entrey :) ! Cheers !
The art has a gritty, juicy feeling to it and the concept is really cool ! Well done, cheers !
Quite an interseting game ! The photo like art was also curious !
The game's strongest point is, in my opinion, it's freaky atmosphere ! Great job getting all that fog, tree and spooky sound effects up and running in such little time :) ! Cheers !
Really cool, winter like atmosphere :) ! But I'm afraid I don't really see how it fits into the theme of the more you have the worst it gets...
This is a really nice creation ! Despite the fact that WASD keys wasn't the best for my keyboard I still had a nice amount of fun barking away ! I really like the art, the characters feel as if they are carved out from wood ! Cheers :) !
I really like the tension around the light ! The light being a means of survival, but also of great danger ! Other than the fact that I died almost every time VERY QUICKLY (thought I was playing Dark Souls for a moment) ! Cheers :) !
A really nice game !! From the simple art style all the way to the satisfying sound when you jump in the air ! One thing I would of done differently is reset the game when an pig falls to 0 (after the initial first 2 pigs), this way death would of felt more tense ! Anyway really fresh game to play, cheers :) !
Absolutely fantastic ! The "Wait, I have a better idea" is exactly what I felt at some point in the game jam :) ! Cheers !
For a first time, NOT BAD AT ALL ! However the theme isn't really well implemented into the game ! Still, good job !
I really like the concept of playing as Jack the Ripper :) ! Nice little game, though the controls are a little slow... Cheers and keep it up, the concept as loads of potential !
Cute and simple art with a nice taken on the theme ! Great work, cheers !
Simple and addictive ! I really liked the strategy around the blue objects, trying to get the green bacteria off me :) !!
A nice take on a flappy bird style game :) ! The very simple black and white art style was also quite appealing !
Really nice low poly art style ! Keep it up, CHEERS :) !
Nice idea that fits well with the theme ! Despite the rather, "poor" art, the sounds and overall atomsphere really make for an interesting experience :) !
I love that art ! The background, with the castle... truly enchanting ! The game is also very interesting and the story satisfying and fun :) ! Cheers !
I really like the poping sound effect when you shoot and the colorful style of the game ! Controls are very clunky though ! But still, nice game all in all :) !
The game is REALLY juicy ! It's just such a shame that the WASD keys really doesn't suit my AZER keyboard ! As a result it was tough for me to play the game !
Cool geometrical art style ! It's also nice that you added resolution options :) ! Cheers !
Hey ! Very simple and fun little game ! I especially like the glowing coins and the concept of this greedy little character ! Goes really well with the theme !
Nice retro art style :) ! But way too easy :D ! I did have a laugh when at the end of the game my screen was covered in white pixels !
It has a nice overcooked (cool party game) feeling :) ! Good job ! My one complaint is how the rules are explained, via a heavy text menu, but seeing the limited amount of time we devs have it's already better than nothing :) !!
That's a very unique game ! Super orginal idea filled with humour :) ! I also REALLY like the vector graphics and the little music, though repetitive isn't iritating, it just gives a nice beat and vibe to the whole game ! So again well a big done mate :) !
Superb game feel ! I really like the simplistic art style, with that slight blur/shakiness to everything... are you using post processing effects to achieve that look ? Also the gameplay is very neat ! A really lice take on the theme :) !
VERY nice game :) !! I'm not very good at puzzle games so I didn't get very far, but I can appreciate the level design and art all the same ! Everything feels cute and quite juicy ! Awesome game feel, really ! Probably the best I've played so fat, cheers :) !
Thanks so much for the feedback everyone :) !! @eric-kulbiej I'm so glad you took part in your first LD, hope you had a good time ! And of course I'll be making a behind the scenes video that will be on my Youtube channel some time soon :) !!
That sad looking sun ;D ! Thanks for playing !! @missalpha I'm so happy to hear my channel has helped you out on your game dev journey :) !
Thanks everyone for the great feedback :) ! Each comment is so appreciated and encouraging !!
Thanks so much for being an awesome community :) !! Reading all these comments has been so motivating and inspiring !
That's a really nice take on the theme, well done :) !! It's a shame there are no sounds, which would of made everything feel more juicy and interesting, but still, very nice creation... I'm especially fond of the black and white pixel art color palette (+ orange, very cool)
Really nice pixel art and overall game feel :) ! Big well done ! The controls weren't that great for me though... I'm really not used to A + D to move, would of loved to be able to use the left and right arrow keys :)
Hey :) ! Just played the game and really liked the idea of shooting objects with various colored projectiles ! However as @ascension said the controls are tough ! I think there are way too many buttons the player has to use... this + the fact that boxes spawn extremely fast make the game almost impossible to play ! I would remove the arrow key controls that make the player change color and instead just use those to shoot different colored projectiles directly. How about if the character couldn't move (removes more controls).. instead boxes just come from the left and right and you need to shoot them down before they reach you. Would of made things a lot funner and fair in my opinion, without all that moving and jumping. Anyway good job for finishing your game,cheers :) !
That's a very clever little puzzle game :) ! Well done !! I really like the sound effects and simple animations, all in all it feels great !
I love the art ! It has a nice Limbo like feel :) ! Very hard game... and some collisions seem a little unfair (like the very first block that slams down and kills you without really touching you). But all in all a solid ld entry :) !
A big well done for completing your game in such a short period of time :) !! That's a big achievement ! The gameplay is simple yet pretty cool and I'm the sound effects though simple add that extra nice little something :) !! I especially like the sky, filled with glowing green stars and light, looks awesome !
Failure is success in progress - einstein ! Definitely try finishing your game for the jam :) , you still have over 10 hours (considering you're not working). Best of luck !
All in all a very solid LD entry :) ! Well done ! I especially like the pixel art style, juicy sound effects and slight screen shake !
A BIG well done :) !! My high score is 60 something I think... it's really hard ! Great explosion effects and really cool/cute space ship ! My one complaint is that hazards seem to just pop out right next to me, leaving hardly any time to dodge ! Perhaps create some warning sign, like a flashing red square before spawning the hazard. Anyway great job ! Fits very nicely with the theme of the game jam :) !
I like the concept of running out of space in your inventory, but the way it's done here is so so (feels a little buggy and the art is all blurry :(). Still it's already GREAT that you finished what you started ! It's an epic achievement ! Keep making games and you'll improve like crazy ! Best of luck mate :)
Awesome creation :) !! Though I'm not to keen on puzzle games this one really hooked me ! The simple vector art style is superb, and the story, theme of the jam and gameplay all fit together very nicely ! A big well done :) !
That was actually really well done :) !! The pixel art is awesome and the gameplay, though difficult was still very enjoyable ! Also good job for adding sound effects, it makes a big difference ! Keep up the great work !
Cool pixel art and animations :) !!
I'm afraid the arrow keys don't work for me :( ! Other than that I really like the simple pixel art and game concept ! Having the world slowly dissapear really fits nicely with the theme of the game jam ! Well done :) !
Well done for completing your LD game :) !! Though this creation is simple it's still pretty fun and the little shooting sound effect is great ! It was hard for me to get very far because I have an AZER keyboard (not great with WASD controls). Anyway great job, keep it up :) !!
Awesome :) !! I believe this is the first LD game I've completed from A to Z. Despite the so so graphics this game feels great ! The controls are awesome and the level design is really neat ! The game also fits very nicely with the theme : running out of space ! A big well done ! Oh ans also I like the music, it's just very calm and nice...
A very original, interesting creation :) ! Well done :) !! The pixel art style is nice and most of the mini games interesting and hectic ! I had some trouble reading the font sometimes but other than that, this was a solid LD entry, keep it up :) !!
Really nice pixel art, animations and color palette :) ! The atmosphere is also very nice... I love how the screen is all tiny giving that claustrophobic feeling, as well as how the field of view of the player gets smaller and smaller ! There were no sounds though (is that just me ?)... All in all well done :) !
A big well done :) !! Contrary to many other LD games I've played this one has nice and simple controls, making it quick to understand but still very challenging ! The pixel art is very well done and the music is top notch, it gave this whole creation a real atmosphere and tense vibe ! Keep it up :) !!
The best part of this game for me is the art :) ! Simple yet haunting, there's a really nice atmosphere to it :) ! I also really like the music ! A big well done for that too !
A HUGE well done to you :) !! I was really pleasantly surprised by this game ! A mix of puzzler and timing, awesome ! The silhouette art style is great and that grass moving underfoot (+sound effect) is awesome, really ! I'm also really fond of those glowing orb like effects ! The one little downside for me is having to wait 3 seconds to restart, I know it's not much but it still feels a tiny bit annoying, especially once you die 5/6 times per level as I did :D ! So yeah all in all, a very solid LD entry, one of the top ones I've tried out so far ! Keep it up !
Hey Allan :) ! A huge well done ! Beyong Space fits really nicely with the theme of the jam, the simple pixel art and animations are great and the few sound effects you did add to the game are juicy and just make everything feel that much more fun and interesting :) ! Being so young and making something this complete, polished and great in such a short period of time in a BIG achievement ! Keep it up :) !!
All in all it's a very nice game, with awesome explosion effects, juicy sounds and a cool color palette :) !! Well done ! However it was VERY difficult for me to play properly because of the WASD controls (I have a AZER keyboard), just a shame you didn't have to time to implement controls for both types of keyboards. But other than that, really nice :) !
That's a solid and pretty fun LD entry :) ! Well done ! The game also fits very nicely with the theme of the jam, and that cartoony, cute artstyle is super :) ! Keep it up, cheers !
A really solid LD entry :) ! Well done ! I like the fact that pushing on the arrow keys, trying to push through the crowd really FEELS like pushing through a crowd in life... a mix of frustration and relief when you finally get through ! I also really like the simple cartoony art style, and the music, though repetitive, feels nice :) !
Well done :) !! I really like those wobbly character animations and that custom, hand drawn font for score and the play and menu buttons ! I would of got the player jumping a little higher and of course added a few sound effects, like for shooting, when an enemy is killed and when the player is hurt. That would of made everything feel that much more exciting and satisfying ! But all in all great job, keep it up :) !!
That was a really clever idea Sebastian :) ! And those sounds and music went perfectly with the game, nice and relaxing, they don't hinder the puzzle solving process (damn those puzzles are tough ;D). I also really like those big googly eyes and the story to go with it :)
An incredible little puzzle game ! It's simply amazing how in such a small amount of time you were able to design such clever, mind bending levels ! With each and every LD you seem to come up with fascinating, very interesting concepts ! Not to mention the simple but very satisfying graphics and animations (those squishy buttons and player character are awesome). Keep it up mate !
This was a very nice little game :) ! Great atmopshere, and I really liked the sound effects and music ! It's just a shame you didn't have a time to add a restart option, because I must admit having to reload the page and re-do everything is annoying :/ Oh well, still solid jam entry !
That was a very nice little game :) ! I love those cute pixel art graphics and simple yet cool sound effects ! Keep it up !
@akros Thanks man for the feedback :) ! Yeah this is a very small game I made in a few hours AFTER having made a game with Sam (which he'll upload to his LD page soon enough)
Awesome art :) ! And that little music is really nice ! Just the controls felt a bit weird at times, but all in all a really solid game jam entry !
A huge well done for completing your LD game :) !! The controls are smooth enough, but it's a shame I can't see the projectiles the wizard is shooting, is that normal ? Anyway I really like the cute cartoony graphics and story ! All in all it's a solid game jam entry, keep it up !
Great controls and awesome musics/sounds ! That death sound effect is great ;D ! I also really liked the background art, just a shame a bit more effort wasn't put in for the platforms, those gray boxes break the immersion slightly. But of course this was made in a short period of time so it's sompletely understandable :) ! Anyway all in all a solid game jam entry, keep it all up !
Lovely art and very relaxing gameplay :) ! Cool sound effects too !
That was fun :) ! Smooth controls, cool music and funky art/animations ! All in all a nice game jam entry, keep it up !
Lovely little game with very cute graphics and a cool music :) ! I really appreciated the small details like being able to customize your character's color, the soft lights streaming from the top left corner of the screen and the way the trees moved around ! The gameplay was a wee bit confusing and I had trouble throwing things away at times, but other than that this is a solid game jam entry :) Keep it up !
Very nice splash screen :) ! Otherwise the game did feel a bit empty, adding a few more environmental pieces would have been awesome (like some rubble on the ground or torches on the walls). Still it's great that you finished a game from A to Z, and for that congrats ! Keep it up :)
That was an interesting little game :) ! The controls felt a big quirky at times, but the concept was nice, and the sound effects satisfying and juicy :) ! Keep it up !
A very interesting game :) ! Well done ! I loved the intro scene, extremely well done and the music was also fantastic ! The levels were well designed and interesting, though the backtracking was sometimes a bit annoying (perhaps smaller levels and faster controls ?) Anyway all in all a solid game jam entry ! Keep it up :)
One of the best LD games I've played so far :) ! Fantastic art and very nice sound effects ! The gameplay is simple but very clever and obviously the story around it all goes brilliantly with the theme of the jam, well done :) !
Thanks for the feedback @craftlord ! You can also use the arrow keys :) !
Thanks for the great feedback everyone :)!
Really appreciated!
Superb little game :)! Simple, engaging with a lot of potential to be expanded on! Great job Nyunesu!
Such an impressive LD entry :DD! Great job!
A strange and cool experiment :))!
That was a truly great game :) ! Super pixel art, very smooth controls ! And I loved the Dark Souls vibe !
Good entry :) ! It fits nicely with the theme !
Awesome creation :) ! Very fun mix of real time and chess :) !
Polished and fun :) ! An epic LD entry :) ! Cheers !
That was really nice :) ! Well done ! I hope you'll expand on this creation !
The two genres are actually PUZZLE GAMES and REFLEX. There is no actual PUZZLE in the gameplay (except matching pieces), the puzzle part is really in the STORY :) ! (The theme didn't specify that the two genres needed to combine via gameplay, so I had fun doing so with the story and going for a more classic, reflex/action based gameplay)
Thanks for the feedback everyone :) ! @orecros Thanks for that :) ! I like the concept of having pieces coming from various sides ! Might try it out just for fun !
Thanks for the feedback :) ! As always this community is awesome and so encouraging !
Thanks so much everyone :) ! A behind the scenes will be coming out my Yt channel some time today :) ! Stay tuned ! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9Z1XWw1kmnvOOFsj6Bzy2g/videos?view_as=subscriber
Thanks everyone for the great feedback :) ! It's always so appreciated !
Such a fascinating game idea :) ! This can definitely be expanded on and released as a full game !
Controls were tough for me (having an AZER keyboard), but the simple blocky 3D graphics were nice and the car sound effect was satisfying :)
This was AWESOME :) ! Really polished, from the art all the way down to the audio ! The actual gameplay is really mind bending and oooo so satisfying when you nail it right ! Top notch :), cheers !
That was really nice :) ! Awesome low poly art, spooky atmosphere and oooo boy, epic jump scares !
That was really nice :) ! My main complaint is the car controls, they didn't really feel intuitive... but other than that I like the simple, moody art (especially the way the sides of the screen seem blackened and blurry ) and the slender man / racing concept ! Again, great work, cheers !
Epic game :) ! The sound effects are really juicy and satisfying to listen too ! Great 3D art and fluid player controls and animations ! Seriously it felt awesome moving about the scene shooting back glowing tennis balls at these squishy enemies !
That was a great LD entry :) ! Satisfying sound effects, nice pixel art and interesting gameplay that fits nicely with the theme !
Nice low poly art style and simple yet addictive gameplay ! I did feel sometimes as if the tiles didn't respond to my clics. Adding a little, satisfying clic sound would of helped there ! So yeah, all in all a sold, nice LD entry :) !
That was the best I've played so far :) ! Nice little soundtrack (gave a medieval, dungeons and dragons feel) and awesome gameplay ! Though I did have a lot of trouble with those pesky bats (I would of liked having more than 1 health). The pixel/silhouette style graphics are epic ! So yeah, all in all a VERY solid LD entry, cheers !
Nice creation : ) ! Also cool spooky atmosphere ! My only problem was spotting the kiwis when the car was going really fast :) !
I enjoyed that :) ! My highest was roughly 1500 ! Nice pixel art and cool Alien/cowboy theme !
That was cool :) ! My favorite part was the platform asking whether I liked the game, that felt very meta !
That was great :) ! With it's Dark Souls difficulty level, juicy sounds and screen shake and awesome pixel art/ color palette, Jet Boy is a favorite of mine from the jam so far ! cheers !
I like the silhouette style graphics and the turn by turn combat/ platforming. But that jump needs to be a little less snappy.
