LD45 — Start with nothing

Wild Wild Yard by benjamin 2019-10-13T17:02:50Z

Great game. I think this is the first Pico-8 game I have played and I enjoyed it a lot. The graphics are really good and I was impressed with the level of power-ups we have when we die. My only complaints are that the gun was hard to control and it felt weak. I beat it in 14 deaths. You did a good job!

MØN : Master Of Nothing by saintheiser 2019-10-11T19:47:14Z

Amazing graphics and music! However, the gameplay was a bit confusing (I had to read the game's page to understand the mechanics better), you should try to explain how the game works in the game itself. That said, I liked the game once I got into it and I think it has a lot of potencial!

World Collector by Joe Williamson 2019-10-10T21:51:55Z

Amazing game. Very polished and balanced, interesting idea and stunning graphics and music. The only annoyng thing was hiiting 'ESC' would close the game automatically, even by mistake. Also, the game shouldn't just close itself when it ends, in my opinion (maybe tell us that we reached the end and let us close the game). That said, this is a masterpiece, 5 starts in every category!

Dungscoot by Mr_Field 2019-10-12T23:04:41Z

Incredible! The mechanics are fun and the graphics fit incredibly well. The music doesn't feel like it belongs here, i mean, it doesn't contribute much to the mood (but that's not a huge complaint). Good job!

Notorious Bum by Barbiche 2019-10-12T23:15:08Z

Funny idea and executed well. You mean I have nothing? Not even clothes?!? I enjoyed this game a lot and the side bar with the tweets really helps this game. You should add a replay button when we lose, because we have to refresh the page when that happens. Incredible job!

Nothing Left by Solah 2019-10-12T23:34:06Z

Great experience! The combat was very fun (I adored the way the sword works) and it had some though platforming/dashing sections. Sometimes the big black box on the top of the screen made it hard to see the character and the levels :( The story was heartwarming, well done.

Gargolite by Brusi 2019-10-11T19:56:13Z

Awesome! Amazing controls,the art and the music! The only thing I didn't understand was the use of the red crystals: are they our score or they are currency to buy things? Great game, congratulations!

Revolutionaries and Pixels by Hare Software 2019-10-09T19:05:13Z

Great job. The game is very polished and the combat is really fun to play.

the universe, i think by TheInkSkeleton 2019-10-11T15:36:45Z

I can see where you were going with this (I think we were supposed to create the universe), but the gameplay itself is unpolished and hard to control. Also, most of the time I was unsure on what to do. I kept throwing 'space stuff' together and they collided and turn into something (that disappeared after some time) and then I was stuck.

Light your way out by Suchista 2019-10-11T15:54:27Z

Cute puzzle game. You explained well your mechanics, the music and sound effects were on point and combined into a perfect mood. The puzzles were well designed. The graphics were simplistic, but they work. The only thing I didn't find very pleasing to the eyes was how the lighting system looks, but I got used to it after a while.

I want to live by TalesOfPixelia 2019-10-12T13:40:18Z

Quite a weird subject to be sure. The music was really good and the mood too. For some reason in the second phase I couldn't shoot. Maybe that was an issue with the browser and not the game, I will need to download the game just to be sure.

Alone by Harksa 2019-10-12T23:52:56Z

You absolutely nailed the atmosphere with your amazing music. I liked the rather simple visuals and the story was impactful. In conclusion, a very sweet platformer!

Dead Again by Joe Bustamante 2019-10-11T12:47:14Z

One of my favourites of the Jam for sure. I enjoyed a lot the grapichs and the music. The combat was nice but can be improved. Great job overall!

Let There Be Light by michaelaranda 2019-10-11T15:19:25Z

Interesting idea! I could see this becoming an even better game with more elements, if you decide to continue working on it. I really liked seeing how different elements interact with each other.

Desert by Pedroso 2019-10-12T22:53:44Z

Surpringly well made game. The visuals have a unique and beautiful style. The music is awesome too! The small quotes you include were really impactful (but the font used wasn't that fitting, sadly). I felt that the animation for picking up objects was a little bit too long. Also, the game should have had something before it starts (like a cutscence or menus), in my opinion. All in all, great job!

Find the Controls by NunoRibeiro 2019-10-11T15:24:50Z

@benjamin That's some good feedback. I really agree with you, having more gameplay in that section of the game would have made it better. Shame I didn't think of anything like that!

Find the Controls by NunoRibeiro 2019-10-11T15:25:09Z

@pilly Thanks for the kind words!

Find the Controls by NunoRibeiro 2019-10-11T15:54:53Z

@enzo-b Thanks for playing :D

Find the Controls by NunoRibeiro 2019-10-11T20:04:03Z

@alphaden I understand what you are saying. Since the background is always moving (and even the ground has a flickering animation), I see how that make some players dizzy. I will take that in consideration next time, thanks for the feedback!

Find the Controls by NunoRibeiro 2019-10-12T23:19:08Z

@bender-biber I get what you are saying, I will keep in mind that it's more important to not hinder the player than to include a feature that just looks cool on paper. Thanks for playing, though!

Find the Controls by NunoRibeiro 2019-10-12T23:35:22Z

@thor1 Ahahaha are you saying my music is bad? Yeah, that is something I really need to improve. Thanks for the kind words!

Nitchs the tank by AlphaDen 2019-10-15T13:09:39Z

I have to say I agree with most of the reviewers. The looks nice and the idea is interesting. You need to balance the game, but you already know that and it's nice that you are adressing people's problems :D

Super Goat Life by Olivier argentieri 2019-10-15T13:18:04Z

Really funny game. The music is very nice to listen to and fits 100% with the game. I also liked how we must complete a puzzle before we get a new mechanic. Overall, solid entry.

LD46 — Keep it alive

Burned by the Poi by Risist 2020-04-30T19:31:46Z

I liked how each fireball had each own behaviour. You only tell us kill some "red eyes", however the case is full of secrets (which were nice to explore btw), so I'm not sure if there is an extra objective. Those enemies feel to hard to kill and I wish there was a way to regenerate hp. Overall I think the game is really nice!

ADRENA-LINE by managore 2020-05-10T18:58:40Z

Nice work here. The time limit added a sense of hurry that I found really enjoyable (and that most games like this don't have it), I was always trying to move fast and do quick decisions and that backfired sometimes because all I had to do was look at the level with attention. Very fun game!

Will of the Wisp by johnfn 2020-05-11T18:50:24Z

Beautiful game! It's amazing to see how much you could do in just a weekend. Great art and heartwatming story. The mood was on point. Great job!

Secret Protection by dcrdro 2020-05-10T19:05:22Z

I had some trouble controlling the shield, I think it moves too fast. It's a cool concept, and there are things you could do to improve it even more (some comments above have some great ideas that I agree with). Cool entry overall.

Keepalive.exe by PTSnoop 2020-05-02T22:57:15Z

As many have said, the controls don't feel quite right. This is a nice game however! The text on the right was a nice touch and it's really fun that each level has a different mechanic.

Pas by Lukuluk 2020-05-10T18:17:45Z

Everything about this game is stunning! In the beginning I was hitting everything because I thought the movement speed was too high, but then I got used to it (also, I sometimes got sutck in some places near trees). I had a lot of fun, though, and I would love to see a full game based on this artstyle. One of my favourites from the jam.

Defense of the Anka: Wraith of the Duck King by kogyblack 2020-05-02T23:26:28Z

The art and the sounds are quite good, not bad as you made them seem in the description. Making an engine from scratch is always hard, even more when you have short time limit! It's a solid experience. Could have some balancing in the begginning and in the end, but you did a nice job! Cool entry.

My Friend Phil by Conroy 2020-04-23T22:38:27Z

Very fun idea. The grapichs were simple but I really enjoyed them. The controls could be imporved a little bit. I also found a lot of bugs playing the browser version (not sure if the windows version has any), mostly clipping through walls after killing an enemy. Overal nice game.

Keep Them Alive by kaeveris 2020-05-10T18:02:03Z

I really enjoyed your game! Nice game design, cute grapichs and sounds (although the sound when both balls touch was too loud). I was thankful for the quick transitions to get to play the next level faster! Really fun!

Runaway by HackTrout 2020-05-11T18:38:19Z

Nice entry! The polish it has is impressive and the art are great. However, I'm not sure if he game had a goal, I didn't see a point system nor an end location that the train arrives to. The shooting isn't really clear, was hard to tell where my bullets were going. Has a lot of potential!

Attack on Dungeon by phantomeniasll 2020-05-10T19:14:51Z

A Jam Masterpiece! I enjoyed your game so much! It's really hard, in those parts in between waves I needed to play very carefully, because the enemies deal a lot damage quickly. The bomb sound effect was too loud, but that's the only complaint I have. Amazing job!

Scavenger by TentacleMax 2020-05-10T17:54:05Z

The grapichs are awesome! It took me while to figured out I could move, but after that the game became much more fun. The only complaint I have is that 5 minutes doing the same thing over and over again becomes repetitive, I think that if some random events happened once in while would be good.

The Light Within It by NunoRibeiro 2020-04-23T22:05:59Z

Dumb mistake. The game was set to private. It's all good now. @romgerman , @thornduck , @kszaku thanks for spotting the error.

Aqua Qaos by AlbionBrown 2020-05-10T18:41:52Z

There is a potential here. I had the same difficulties that everyone is mentioning here, the controls were beyond hard. With some tweaking and polish this could become something great!

The Spark by Le Don 2020-04-30T20:04:54Z

This game is cute. The animations are nice and the stealth gameplay is solid. Nice entry!

Help Me GROW! by IronStudios 2020-05-02T23:11:15Z

Most people couldn't have done a better job in 1 hour. There were many things that were missing (like sound, win and lose state) but you know that. You can still work on this game if you want, it seems like you have some cool ideas! Good job overall.

Shelter by Aaron Taube 2020-04-23T22:19:54Z

That was fun. Great idea to make the zombies attack each other, the game would be almost impossible to beat without that.

KEEP IT ALIVE by yy404 2020-05-10T18:26:55Z

Very interesting concept and very fun. It could be explained better, but it didn't take long for me to understand the mechanic. Cool entry!

Keep Them Alive by Prototype Jon 2020-04-27T14:38:06Z

Nice visuals and good idea. Needs some balancing, as the other comments say, and I think some checkpoints in the beginning of each level would be helpful.

The Power of The Five Books by Marcelo Zoletti 2020-04-27T14:23:51Z

I really enjoyed this game. The thing I didn't like was how the enemies could kill me very fast if they came into contact with me. Maybe it would be good to add some invincibility frames. Good job on this one!

I LIKE FISH! by Rikitaner 2020-05-11T19:08:13Z

Very enjoyable. The visuals simple and delightful, the concept is nice and fits the theme 100%. Cool game!

Frozen April by Alex Karev 2020-04-23T22:13:14Z

Great game. Really enjoyed it, especially the mood!
