LD23 — Tiny World

The Good Ship Higgs Boson by Jezzamon 2012-04-29T01:39:00

Awesome :) It was kind of hard to tell which levels you could change gravity left/right on. Neat puzzle concept though!

Tiny World - Ideas in the Sea of Thought by uprightpath 2012-04-29T08:26:00

Seems like a cool idea, but there's too much going on in there for me to figure it out :/

Tiny's World by Topaz 2012-04-26T05:26:00

Do want web version :(

Poiesis by Them Games 2012-04-29T08:37:00

Win 7 64-bit, I get a blank cmd.exe.

3rd Planet by xillix 2012-04-29T08:42:00

Cool idea, needed more to be interesting/fun though.

Underfoot by zorf 2012-04-29T08:36:00

Cute, but way too slow to be fun.

Nix by rustybroomhandle 2012-04-29T08:14:00

Not rating because I hate installers.

Zombie Siege by Fsmv 2012-04-29T08:39:00

Cool idea, but this isn't really rateable :/

Tinysasters by Volute 2012-05-05T08:08:00

Gorgeous :)

Big Atoms by Alink 2012-04-25T00:08:00

Neat idea, really felt like I was a molecule floating through space :) Some of the levels are broken though (I couldn't finish the second level because one of the yellow things was blocked behind a blue thing). Would have been nice to see some inter-particle forces as well as gravity.

Sun Save World by castor 2012-05-12T05:35:00

First off: neat mechanic, I really think it has legs :) However, I don't like that there's no way for the player to really improve -- the cap seems to be about 150 seconds, depending on how the plants are initially laid out. The player doesn't have enough influence over what's going on.

Atom Factory by datahaven 2012-05-04T04:55:00

The controls let this down :(

Would have been cool if there were combos other than "get as many of these in a row as you can" -- like red, blue, red, blue = 20 points

Polarity by nornagon 2012-04-22T14:17:00

Racura, try again?

Polarity by nornagon 2012-04-23T23:41:00

@Cake&Code too bad I didn't get the theme across well enough in the game, but the idea was based around the fact that physics is different at nanoscale. Specifically, the electromagnetic force overcomes gravity :) You're a tiny nanomachine that can change your charge.

Polarity by nornagon 2012-05-01T22:28:00

@AD-Edge, there are SFX if you play in Chrome. Didn't get time for music though :(

Polarity by nornagon 2012-05-11T09:32:00

Thanks so much everyone ^__^

Polarity by nornagon 2012-05-12T05:10:00

KevinWorkman: there is a level editor :) though you can't easily share the levels you make. Press [P] while playing a level, then press [Space] to select what tile to place. [B] and [N] go between levels. [R] restarts the current level.

c!ph3r by frosty 2012-04-29T08:20:00

Controls were annoying - your character didn't move exactly when you clicked. Also there didn't really seem to be any reason to get the score things.

Nice graphics and sound though

Millinaut by Throbbery 2012-05-04T07:30:00

What an odd mechanic! I felt like I was exploiting it.

C:\ Infected by Kevin_R_K 2012-04-24T00:00:00

Love the graphics :D

Recluse by chambers 2012-05-12T05:28:00

Loved the window expanding :)

Lost Oxide by SidetrackGames 2012-04-23T05:50:00

Gorgeous graphics! Hated having to go back to the beginning every time I died though :(

The Lump World by Kralle 2012-04-25T00:18:00

I like the theme and I think I can see a neat idea, but there wasn't really any game here. Also, the soundtrack made me want to claw my eardrums out :/

Microscopia by azurenimbus 2012-05-06T02:09:00

This was really cool, but I got lost around level 5 :(

TinyParts by basspenguin 2012-04-29T00:55:00

Cute art, but the basic lock & key platformer has been done to death :/

Giant Apple Pie by mmarcati 2012-04-25T01:06:00

Loved the graphics! And cute how you twisted the theme by making the character huge so the rest of the world is tiny :)

I managed to both win and lose!

Pixel MMO by daniel 2012-04-23T06:20:00

Awesome concept! Way buggy though :(

Corebound by Ryusui 2012-04-24T00:08:00

Reminds me of Greg Egan's story "Incandescence" :D

Nan-o by Mrnewt 2012-04-25T01:27:00

Neat randomly-generated ships! Not much interesting gameplay though, and it's hard to tell which ships are yours.

Little City by dustmyte 2012-04-25T00:51:00

Man, this looks awesome. Wish it were web :( (will try it on my win comp later though)

Little City by dustmyte 2012-04-29T07:38:00

wtf :D

Predicament by orangepascal 2012-05-05T08:27:00

Beautiful, loved it :)

T in Y World by Tom 7 2012-04-26T05:45:00

Incredible. This is awesome :D

Aether by Danik 2012-05-12T05:44:00

I really loved this! The mad dash between control panels was heaps of fun, and really frantic!

Awesome work ^_^

Memento XII by deepnight 2012-04-30T01:00:00

wow. just wow.

this game is beautiful.

Memento XII by deepnight 2012-04-30T01:02:00

FWIW I thought the little audio that was there was excellent. Very moody, it fit the game really well.

Nanofactory by Justin Mullin 2012-05-12T09:53:00

All rates to 5. You are a hero!

Couple of notes: I thought the overtime problems (at least, 1-5) were too easy. I'd really love to see this fleshed out with a bit of extra goodies and made into a complete game! (I'd buy it!)

ANT SURF HERO: THE SURFENING by JigxorAndy 2012-04-23T05:38:00

Loved the graphics :)

dLeIaFtEh by Cell 2012-04-23T05:31:00

I like the controls, but there wasn't really much to the game :/

Tiny Quest by Kvisle 2012-04-29T01:02:00

Love the graphics, but the gameplay wasn't really exciting, and the jump physics felt all wrong.

Drop of Life by MrTwister 2012-04-27T01:53:00

Cute! Loved the art, but the gameplay is a little too unpredictable to be fun.

Tiny Bomber by naufr4g0 2012-04-25T00:58:00

Couldn't play on OSX 10.6 :(

Wulcan by leafo 2012-04-29T01:29:00

Lovely. Loved the graphics, and the gameplay is actually really interesting (I was surprised to see something truly innovative in a shmup!) The choice between alpha and beta weapons is interesting.

The music was nice, but I didn't feel like it really fit the game.

Angle Isle by Rusty Moyher 2012-04-23T06:29:00

Awesome game :D loved the graphics, loved the sounds :) Nice work!

Space Bear by madflame991 2012-04-29T09:05:00

Awesome mood :P

Exposed by 01101101 2012-05-05T08:03:00

Lovely art, excellent sound effects and music. It was too hard to figure out what to do though :( (in particular, I couldn't work out how to get a trunk.)

Astro Break by hulahulahest 2012-05-04T07:17:00

Gorgeous, and heaps of fun. Nice!

Pale Blue Dot by KevinWorkman 2012-05-12T05:14:00

Love listening to Sagan, but the controls weren't very good :( half the time the planet didn't move towards my mouse, but away from it instead.

Mirror Rays by keenblaze 2012-04-29T01:24:00

I couldn't figure out the level with the two blue blocks, but aside from that this game is AWESOME. Great concept, gorgeous art. Fantastic.

I got really frustrated with the jump physics though (especially not being able to jump when pressed up against a wall). A little more polish though and this would be killer :)

Life in jar by Simple Ghost 2012-04-29T08:48:00

Pretty :) Wish it'd been a bit more guided at the start though.

Gulliver by DDRKirby(ISQ) 2012-04-29T07:58:00

Music was great, and I loved the idea of the minimizer. Would have liked to see some more usage of it though :)

Spheres.. by Nibelung 2012-04-23T06:33:00

Love the world :)

Dr. Biology's Educational Game by Draknek 2012-04-29T01:08:00

It's not working for me :(

Immune by doowttam 2012-04-29T01:06:00

Love the use of theme! Game is a bit hard and needs refinement (e.g. the germs should start coming a few at a time, then more as you play).

Tinius Worldifica by Cryptix 2012-04-29T01:54:00

This was a cute game (and I loved the graphics!) It reminded me of Chip's Challenge.

The levels felt anything but tiny, though, considering how long it took to get anywhere :(

Macronauts, Go! by wgemigh 2012-04-25T00:49:00

I wish the game went faster. I'm spending 90% of my time waiting for the animations to happen :(

Also, I don't understand how blue works :/ does it deal way more damage with more matching blocks?

Tiny Wizard by kebabskal 2012-05-12T04:58:00

Nice :) The different hats could have been more distinct, though -- they seemed like just the same mechanic with a different color

Stupid Ants by rvmook 2012-05-12T05:39:00

Really cool idea, but it didn't really seem to matter much what I did in the game.

Crimson Booties by Waynetron 2012-04-29T07:46:00

Nice writing, but all I got was some dialog and then it went back to the title screen. Not really a game :/

Quarky by sythe 2012-04-30T00:37:00

bombs OP lol :)

Professor McSteen, and his shrinking machine by PerilousPete 2012-04-23T06:05:00

Fun! Way hard though (or I'm playing it wrong :P)

itty 8bitty by 8bitmatt 2012-05-05T08:20:00

Neat puzzler, and I love the music :) I could never remember whether I was green or blue at the start though.
