LD33 — You are the Monster

Planet Licker by ohsqueezy 2015-09-03T21:07:00

This game is bizzare but it's oddly charming. I would lick your video game any day.

pls custom controller w/ flavored planets

Gorgon Zoë by berkano 2015-09-05T04:13:00

Could use some balancing / bugfixing (unlimited framerate! so fast!) but not bad. The graphics remind me of Byond.

Aglæca by philomory 2015-09-05T03:28:00

It's pretty, but there doesn't seem to be a whole lot to do. I'm not sure what the merit of stealing bits of food is, since you'll probably starve without razing towns.

A troll's life by Paul Sinnett 2015-09-03T23:00:00

Brawny man throws manhole covers at shrek's mom until she falls over, and then they beat her with sticks
8/10

Dragon Quest by Zathnic 2015-09-03T23:31:00

Didn't like that moving and using skills was mutually exclusive. Otherwise it's pretty okay. Pretty grindy.

Carrot Capers by phaze0 2015-09-04T01:07:00

Fantastic game. The insistence on only one button for input is weird, and the biggest challenge is just waiting for the reticle to swing back to the right so you can shoot th' bastards, but I guess it would be real easy otherwise.

ate all muh bullets

Shadow by someone 2015-09-03T22:15:00

pretty much what everyone else said, good game feel but not much to do.

Cyber Butcher by AODQ 2015-08-25T02:14:00

Love the graphics. Very early 16-bit era.:P

Protect the Egg by bvanschooten 2015-09-05T16:44:00

Simple but it takes you in. It's a pretty solid mouse-avoidance game, though it could use some more challenge.

Nice backgrounds.

Swamp Man by Mr-Hide 2015-09-03T22:20:00

It's pretty easy, I think.
why are they burning down the swamp?????

Terror Bird Feeding Frenzy by jwin 2015-09-05T03:38:00

And to think, the gnomes tried to domesticate these things.

Cute game, nice design. The gameplay is pretty smooth but the bird is real floaty, and I feel like there could probably be more variety to it. Overall very solid though.

Takodemon by Split82 2015-08-25T01:17:00

Oh god I couldn't put this down! Amazing! The control scheme was tricky, but I got over it. It has a fun QWOP for monsters vibe.:P

Nombeast Jr. by Joror 2015-09-03T23:37:00

Short, a bit quirky but not too bad to control once you get the hang of it. Birds are hard to catch, just like in real life.

People Muncher by AxeTheory 2015-09-06T02:41:00

never has flinging helpless daytrippers into my maw been more of a struggle.
The gameplay is pretty good, although I think it's too tough to avoid dying.

The Halls of Oszmot by unpronounceable 2015-09-04T02:47:00

Nice little game, I had a lot of fun playing it, Those Ulfhednar's are a real threat. Throwing things might be a bit overpowered, or physical attacks might be a bit underpowered because I almost always used a throw.

Monster Hotel by Levi D. Smith 2015-09-03T22:12:00

yeeeeeupppieeee

Trick Parade by SimonLarsen 2015-09-03T21:52:00

spooper nintendo

This is a pretty great entry, best I played so far. The minigames were neat and the graphics were appealing. Very nice game, 9spooky.

RODENT by notajetski 2015-09-06T02:28:00

Well I managed to jump out of the map, but I think I got the jist of it. Feels great to play, some good ol' visceral carnage. Excellent use of theme.

The Monster I Am by KilledByAPixel 2015-09-04T00:12:00

Neat little physics game, I think the fire is both your greatest ally and your worst enemy because it's the best way to get rid of the building but it'll kill ya good.

Martii the Rappasaur by Crazi456 2015-09-05T18:38:00

Soul Eater by Almax27 2015-09-03T23:09:00

fav feature: mashing esc to build skeletal mountain

Obamapology: Term 2 by El Cabaro 2015-09-05T04:24:00

WHY, OBAMA, WHY?!
Charming game, I shed a single eagle-shaped tear. The "random bits of tat" look works out well.
Also, nice Bubsy reference B3

Hydrated by TnT 2015-09-03T22:27:00

well, it didnt seem like the leaderboard worked but I killed a lot of dudes and then the entire world was knights. it was a

Harmless by hate-marina 2015-09-05T15:39:00

Easy and short, it was a bit startling to have the running segment abruptly stop though for the platforming - I thought something broke.
The player character looks like a head when it's falling.
I like the life advice at the end.

The Virus by okmmjyygv 2015-09-03T20:08:00

It's ok.
The game is hard and I had trouble with clicking the spots for the DNA matching segment. But the music is nice and the graphics are functional.

Urd Monster by abcdef65g 2015-09-05T03:48:00

Whoosh! that text scrolled by fast.

The monster kind of looks like a mashup of Toejam & Earl.
My biggest complaint would be that it's often not overly clear where you're expected to go or what you ought to do. Apart from that and the things others mentioned, it's alright.

Gem Giant by LewisChaplin 2015-09-04T00:35:00

Interesting game. Really simple but it's kind of fun to play whack-a-mole.
Years of runescape prepared me for rapid precision clicking but gosh darn that got overwhelming fast. My score on normal was 223.

Royal Flesh by jcsirron 2015-09-03T21:02:00

I could not pick up mans :<

Floating Arm Takes Selfies by sandbaydev 2015-09-03T20:39:00

INFINITE MEAT

Beware the Kraken by HellBlazer 2015-09-04T03:05:00

Those cyanide and happiness guys will think twice about going boating now

Destroy Earth by hobblygobbly 2015-09-04T00:43:00

Alright little asteroids derivative. I feel like there should be some more incentive for actually engaging with the enemies but the different ship upgrades are cool at least.

The Monster Within by OberynMartell 2015-09-04T00:58:00

CURSE YOUR SUDDEN BUT INEVITABLE BETRAYAL!!11

Decent game. Reminds me of The Lost Vikings with each character having to fill a specific role.

Monster Destroyer of Cities by Sedsibi 2015-09-04T01:13:00

A tech demo but a neat one. Physics-based destruction is always fun.

Yeti Trial by JoJoX 2015-09-03T21:15:00

I don't like that the trees don't seem to block their vision much (any?). Took a while to figure out how it works but it's interesting, worth playing.

The Omnipotent Program by AnaglyphCoding 2015-09-04T01:22:00

Well, I beat it, I think. It's an interesting concept but it's too unpredictable to play reliably I think.

Researcher 101 by Anti 2015-09-03T20:45:00

Music was a bit repetitive
Didn't find the dash ability to be too useful, I couldn't get it to do much damage but that could be bc im bad at video game

A Game Where You Are ANY Monster by Saphyre 2015-08-25T02:09:00

Sadly it didn't seem to allow me to be "Any" monster.:P But I like the retro aesthetic. Probably the first text adventure I've seen in unity though.

People's Mandatory Video Entertainment by Nurbs 2015-09-04T03:13:00

@dorny
plant seeds to grow cake. Give cake to Workers for prosperity and health to all Koreans. In return, workers deliver seeds so that you may continue to grow cakes and defend them from theiving imperialists.

@Daisuke909
please do not ploish

Mission by handkor 2015-09-03T20:30:00

The sound effects were glorious. I liked the part where I played soccer with boulders. These new pikmins are weird.

it's a bit hard to walk when you pick up the dudes.

Wolfman Kills World Peace with a Vampire Mech III by theBobcatte 2015-09-06T02:47:00

now, we are all the monsters

Ninja Cockroach by Cliff Lee CL 2015-09-04T03:11:00

Fun and challenging. I don't think it should be necessary to hold shift to run because you don't really ever need to not hold it :V

Monsters by Alexander Ramsay-Baggs 2015-09-03T22:57:00

This game is way too hard :V
I think the hunger bars go down too fast and it's hard to tell when you're being assaulted by a zombom

but otherwise it's ok.

DRUMSTER by SoulGame 2015-08-25T01:11:00

I'm so bad at these kinds of games, took some real effort to get through to see what happened. But the slow transition was enough to make me want to. Great job!

Chirping Of Blood by onilink_ 2015-09-05T16:02:00

Nice effects, loved the windshield wiper bit. Could use some more variety in enemies / attacks, and I think if you just go in the top left corner and hold shoot you can live forever. But otherwise, good work.

I May Have Misunderstood: RPG by wooltech 2015-09-04T01:45:00

This is the best anybody could have done with this theme.

People Can Be Monsters by amras0000 2015-09-05T16:12:00

EXCELLENT GAME BRING BENEFIT TO GLORIOUS LEADER AND ALL PEOPLE. REBEL DISSENT HAS BEEN ELIMINATED.

Red Flaming Hood by eddynardo 2015-09-05T16:33:00

http://i.imgur.com/SljnOBp.png I am the watcher

it gets weird when you venture out to the far corners of reality. The grey man in the wardrobe was odd and I desperately wanted to jump to the floating island with the broken building, but it wasn't going to happen. The wolfs are creepy too.

But I killed all the wolfs and nothing much happened.

Elven Blood by nihilaleph 2015-09-04T02:15:00

The pacifist run is the true competitive

Monster Be Good by MHaton 2015-09-06T02:22:00

I got stuck in a tree :<

I wish the traps were a bit more effective, since my strategy is basically to make a wall out of holes and wait it out. The most dangerous day is the fast day, since you can generally outmaneuver the villagers any other.

Jamess Adventure? by NSoul 2015-09-05T03:08:00

Strange game, professor

It wasn't so bad once I figured out how to navigate with the wall climb. One problem is that powerups reset if you restart the level, so if you die a lot and keep collecting them you can become TOO FAST

Monster Arena by MoogleSensei 2015-09-05T02:43:00

Nice interpretation of the theme. Now make some Red Bull enemies that will try to stop you :0

Hydro Carbon by bentglasstube 2015-09-03T22:48:00

Slow and a bit easy, the environmentalists don't come around very often and by the end I filled the whole map with oil so by cleaning it they actually gave me opportunity to score more points
but it was a cool game.

Monster Hunt by JK5000 2015-09-05T18:49:00

Neat little resource-management game, however I fear the monster needs glasses as he just throws the stones without even looking where they should go!

Over The Course Of A Day by Blobo 2015-09-06T03:08:00

Tip to future players: Setting graphics quality to "Fantastic" might slow the game down enough to make it playable.

anyway, I have only one thing to say about this game
O'DOYLE RULES!

Hungry Friend by KerSplotchPolice 2015-09-05T15:53:00

Much like real life, it is difficult to avoid eating your friends.
One problem is that the meat goes flying WAY too far, so you can kill someone and then lose the meat and have to kill someone ELSE to get more.

Gorgezilla by Jelinib 2015-09-04T03:00:00

Cute little game, I like how the dinosaur gets bigger the more people you eat. Takes a while for the difficulty to get any higher (if it does?) so it can get a bit repetitive.

The Inglorious Yet Highly Stimulating Life of an Underpaid Graduate Student by Gelato Labs 2015-09-06T03:22:00

This game is too realistic and should be kept away from children

The Unseen by Wedge McCloud 2015-09-06T01:59:00

nice little strategy game. I didn't find it too hard, my strategy was to amass the max amount of bodies then use the Darkness ritual to summon a bunch of Flesh Golems without causing alarm.

None Shall Tell by Eldy 2015-09-05T15:28:00

Nice short little puzzle game. Although I'm a bit confused as to why putting a corpse in the fridge counts as not leaving a clue, everything else was pretty straightforward. Nice work!

Minotaur by BeamKirby 2015-09-03T22:00:00

The gameplay is pretty slow, so it's not too satisfying to play.
Gore is well *executed* B3

Monster Chomper by PokeyOne 2015-09-04T00:24:00

Useful to learn numbers that are bigger or smaller than other numbers.

Buddies for Baldwin by weirdway 2015-09-06T02:35:00

Like most things involving social aptitude, I found this game challenging.
Still, it's a nice concept and pretty well executed.

Garbage World Burns by mrjorts 2015-09-06T20:12:00

do not take all the drugs

Garbage World Burns by mrjorts 2015-09-06T20:22:00

also, I killed the horse and I'm proud of it

PixelMonster by shawn42 2015-09-04T02:19:00

Neat concept. Gameplay is smooth, puzzles are simple enough in the demo although the jump in the last level took me a few tries. Could be worth expanding on.

Almost Heroic by xvw 2015-09-04T00:02:00

Pretty great game!
I feel the message at the end might've been a bit heavy-handed :b
still I really liked the combat, though I wish the presses would've sync'd to the music in the background.

very nice work.

Jeremy the Destructopus by bladesatoshix 2015-08-25T02:04:00

I like the gameboy style graphics, games a bit light though!

I Ate Uman by Llucile 2015-09-03T20:57:00

Interesting gameplay concept but I think it could have been better realized. Also it took a bit too long for the humans to appear.

Saturday Morning Destruction by roaringcatgames 2015-09-03T20:51:00

Cute graphics but the gameplay was a bit bland. There doesn't seem to be any repercussion to mashing the buttons to get more score.
