LD18 — Enemies as Weapons

Undermine by droqen 2010-08-24T07:40:00

Hoo wow, very nice indeed! I'm not sure what it is exactly about it that I find so appealing. I think it's the entire package.
All the enemies behave differently and are easily readable, the boss monster is iconic to the extreme, and the music getting more and more muted as you get hurt is a very nice effect. I just miss sound effects!

Grabitas by NMcCoy 2010-08-23T01:32:00

It doesn't start for me! I get java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: ld18_grabitas.class

Grabitas by NMcCoy 2010-08-24T07:30:00

Oh, wow! Now it started, and I had a LOT of fun :D Nice game!

Camma The Huntress by Scramasax 2010-08-24T07:43:00

It just crashes for me immediately.

Enemies, (Such) as Weapons. by zlash 2010-08-23T02:12:00

That is a LOT of dialogue!

Ol' Conjurer by Attecus 2010-08-23T02:10:00

It doesn't start for me, I guess I need something installed? What do I need?

Metagun by Notch 2010-08-22T16:17:00

Oops, the version up there had the debug spawn position set!
I've fixed it (within the time limit, note!)

Collateral by Jonathan Whiting 2010-08-23T02:23:00

I couldn't get back out! But I had a lot of fun getting down! Extremely well done!

Leave Me Alone by hamburger 2010-08-23T01:57:00

I liked this one a lot! Very well executed

The Lair of Fungal Wonder by NiallM 2010-08-23T02:08:00

That's really pretty, and the mechanic was interesting. I couldn't find a way to get rid of spore gunner thingies though, so eventually it just turned impossible.

LD21 — Escape

Prison Break by hamster_mk_4 2011-08-22T18:57:00

It was a bit difficult to play on a trackpad, but other than that, it was great! I used to play a lot of Virtua Cop, so this really brings back memories. Great job.

Death Boulder Jones by demonpants 2011-08-22T19:06:00

Very difficult! Feels a bit like trial and error.

Gaol Break by Basilios 2011-08-22T19:33:00

I quite like it. I gave up on level 3 because it required perfect timing, and I had to wait for the guard to finish his round every single time I failed.

65-73-63 by austinbirch 2011-08-22T18:46:00

Firefox 6, MacOS X 10.7. Game shows up as a solid purple square.

LD22 — Alone

Lonesome Cowboy by jlnr 2012-01-06T11:33:00

Ruby source code? Can't play. :/

Afrocity Atrocity by Sos 2011-12-19T23:32:00

Well, fiddle my diddle. That was.. scary! :D

The Tale of Mister by hubol 2012-01-06T11:39:00

It's very difficult to control, but lovely!

Alone with Aliens by Pixelgel 2012-01-06T12:04:00

It was a bit difficult to play on a swedish keyboard, as ";" requires pressing shift+",". Switching to a US layout worked.

Lonely Dungeon by eerongal 2012-01-06T14:59:00

The game went from "oh, one of these" to "haha" once I figured it out. Nice music, it really added to the mood.

Oh Dear, I've Lost My Hat by fakeyou 2012-01-06T18:31:00

The pathfinding made this game a bit easy. I just clicked on the other side of a thin wall of trees, and the guy walked all the way around for me.

LD28 — You Only Get One

Last Minute Christmas Chopping by Notch 2013-12-15T19:29:00

The tentacles are because of Cthulhu, of course. To use the goop, and to get closer to being able to beat the game, hold the jump button and tap the chop button.

LD29 — Beneath the Surface

SUNK by GeorgeBroussard 2014-04-30T10:58:00

And now I'm sad

Driller Rush by Serk 2014-04-28T13:29:00

I frequently come across two rocks spanning the entire width of the level (as in the second screenshot you uploaded). That's pretty much always a death sentence with no way to avoid. Fun, though!
