LD42 — Running out of space

Legendary Geometry Space Wars by Faithcaio 2018-08-14T09:11:15Z

Really nice effects! I found the camera movement made it hard to aim, and a little bit nauseating.

There seem to be resolution issues, I was fullscreen on a 2880 x 1800 monitor and I didn't seem to be seeing the whole screen, using the webGL version on Google Chrome.

Played about 20 min, it took me a few game overs before I really understood what I was doing. I'm conflicted on the art style, I really like this aesthetically but the resolution makes it hard to understand what's happening, it reminded me of Tamagotchi. The gameplay was very hectic, but the good kind of hectic :) Good Job!

Hiya, I'm on latest version of mac and I get A "The application “Mac-1” can’t be opened." popup when I try.

I really like this art style, but the controls where a bit clunky and and it was a bit frustrating not being able to put things in the dish because I walked a few pixels too far.

The Espacito by Wendel Scardua 2018-08-15T04:25:15Z

I enjoyed this, but a few issues. I assumed the points were projectiles until I realised my score wasn't going up and the game didn't give me much reason to move, because if I moved I would nearly always miss the points, so I generally wouldn't move until I was shot at, then the moment I was safe I'd stop moving again, maybe making the points home in would help? My ship felt like it had too much HP, I think it would feel like higher stakes if I died in only a few hits, and increases the number of enemies and meteors (and decreasing their hitpoints as well) would help make it feel like I was threatened. All in all this was a decent game, but I think with a little tuning this could be an excellent game.

Mushroom Madness by hatscat 2018-08-14T11:32:33Z

Simple and enjoyable, the rotation was a little jarring, but with the repetitive music and neon colours this made it slightly trance like.

Space Opera by t-mw 2018-08-16T06:58:37Z

Interesting concept, but a bit more direction would be useful. I didn't know if what I was doing was helping or making it worse, so I just brute forced a few then gave up.

This is very impressive for 10hrs of work. I couldn't finish because it never showed everything in the screenshot, it seemed to be zoomed in too much.

La Flèche du Bon Sens by Yvo 2018-08-14T10:44:08Z

Same problem here.

La Flèche du Bon Sens by Yvo 2018-08-14T11:05:33Z

It's a shame it's windows only, any chance of a mac build?

Spiritship by velvetlobster 2018-08-16T06:26:10Z

Hiya, the mac version doesn't seem to be working, I just getting a little red 98% in the centre of the screen, I left it running for a few minutes and no change. I'm on High Sierra if that helps.

Running from the Mob by Adam Saudagar 2018-08-16T12:03:03Z

"EH wise guy aye" "EH WISE GUY EHH" The voice acting is great, and I had a pretty good time playing it. I think there should be a check to stop the grunts talking over each other, and I noticed a bit of shaking in the main character at high speed. Other then that it's a great experience.

Soggy Bunny by rexpeppers 2018-08-15T03:54:40Z

This is really cute! Wish it was longer!

HANA by Conspite 2018-08-16T08:32:38Z

This is fantastic! Really impressive theme and style, I only wish it was longer.

Claustro by Taimidori 2018-08-16T11:44:04Z

This is really nice, the mechanics were simple and intuitive, the character art is nice and there was some strategy to where you killed enemies in the long run.

Space To Breathe by kirb 2018-08-15T07:20:51Z

This is great! Everything was very atmospheric!

Andromeda by oats 2018-08-15T07:06:56Z

@awiX the game doesn't have music?

Tribal Space by outterest 2018-08-14T11:01:21Z

Can confirm it works on mac, it took me a little while to figure out what was going on, maybe make the "next turn" button stand out more.

A Bar In Space by Fluffy_Kaeloky 2018-08-14T11:39:07Z

I love these characters! I agree with rexpeppers, my best strategy was just but mashing near the bugs. Also once I died I couldn't see my score because the retry screen got in the way, so I have no idea what I got.

Space is running out of space by DarkGuardsman 2018-08-15T04:06:56Z

I had a lot of difficulty matching pace with the rocks, and once I finally did I'd lose the pieces as soon as I shot it enough, so in the end I played about 10 min and didn't make any progress. The graphics are very nice and I think with some refinement to the movement this could be an interesting game. Also I can confirm the mac version works.
