I Have Nothing - If I don't take from you! by Imphenzia 2019-10-08T02:04:30Z

Great job!

ASHES TO ASHES by AkirAssasin 2019-10-07T04:07:59Z

OMG, web builds are soo good for game jams, they should literally be mandatory!

Stealth.Run() by ping78 2019-10-07T14:30:46Z

The most creative name for the game -)

One And All by burnedkirby 2019-10-07T03:19:11Z

This is cool! Reminds me of that fluid painting thing, forget what its's called!

Nothing by pantoufle 2019-10-07T11:13:50Z

The theme is good, and it's funny.

No Bullet Hell by gswong 2019-10-07T03:16:44Z

I didn't really get how this relates to the theme... Cool concept non the less!

The Nothings by Stefanie Leitch 2019-10-07T02:55:01Z

Wow, thats the coolest isometric pixel art I saw so far on the jam!

The Howler by Noa Calice 2019-10-07T01:34:17Z

Hey, nice job! Graphics are great as always! Was a bit hard to get the theme thought!

If you dont mind, check out my game: https://pavelivanov.itch.io/nothing-on-frontlines

DAY/ONE by DrunkardWolf 2019-10-07T11:36:45Z

I got stuck in gear thing -( But the UI is great for a compo game! Also, cool graphics!You got dudes with clubs, my game has those too lol!

Ammodillo by Jeremy Ryan 2019-10-07T02:13:16Z

Nice game but to get it running was kinda confusing. Maybe you can use the itch.io's section for install instructions to give some steps on how to do it? But overall, nice game!

LifeMission by appix 2019-10-07T02:51:01Z

I never thought dying at 1 years of age is possible, lol! Thank you for web build

Nothing by Bocodillo 2019-10-07T03:11:33Z

Lol, the space bar was the first thing I pressed after reading description -) haha

Ad Infinitum by 6smith 2019-10-07T03:08:20Z

Super satisfying! I can see this become a top mobile game -) The only issue I see is that its hard to see the player!

Keep It That Way by Berkin 2019-10-07T03:21:55Z

Remember your blog posts! Thanks for web build, love when people make them, saves so much pain!

Space Crash by Xacur 2019-10-07T02:53:33Z

@xacur nice game! Also, thank you for the music website, its pretty useful for game jams!

Come to your senses by MarkoPoloDev 2019-10-07T02:05:05Z

Nice Game, a bit confusing and I don't get the theme connection but the graphics and sounds are fantastic!

Cast Away by OrdiNeu 2019-10-07T03:30:38Z

Perfect graphics and cool mechanics! Very polsished!

Color cubes by Elizaveta 2019-10-07T02:22:41Z

You may want to include the links, we can't play your game....

Color cubes by Elizaveta 2019-10-07T02:23:05Z

Never mind, you are jam, sorrry

Molecular Madness by PurpledArtFrog 2019-10-07T11:39:51Z

Cool game, would go great with multiplayer to go with the .io genre!

Typewriter Monkey by Marcel Oyuela-Bonzani 2019-10-07T03:20:51Z

What the hell was that, haha

Nada by croben 2019-10-07T13:09:29Z

Cool, I like how it relates to the theme. The graphics are also great!

FromNothing by Copito 2019-10-07T12:00:43Z

Cool little game, always impressive when people don't use a game engine during a game jam

Scrap Attack by TheseusInABottle 2019-10-07T04:09:58Z

Fun!! I love the song, what program did you use? Bosca Ceoil?

Canvas Land by wormius 2019-10-07T02:29:06Z

5/5 graphics because I made them haha!

Start it by sundhar 2019-10-07T03:53:04Z

Cool game! LIke the art!

Vacuity by DecadeDecaf 2019-10-07T03:56:04Z

@erebus nice game! The sprites look stunning!

Insert Title Text Here by Bip 2019-10-07T01:14:35Z

Interesting idea! I would say the execution could be better but still very good concept! I think the jump sound is a bit too much, the narrator is enough -) Check out my game too if you don't mind!

The Start to a New Beginning by Bobothegreat 2019-10-07T02:19:03Z

Humor 6/5!!!! The thumbnail is the best tooo!!!! haha

Dream of Quantum String by Ydoc124 2019-10-07T03:02:36Z

The most related to the theme so far -) The graphics and the gameplay are questionable thought.

Ludum Dare Simulator by Marcin J 2019-10-07T02:16:47Z

@chaosinism This is funny because this is the idea I had originally -) I didn't exactly go that route thought, lol

Knight Dash by sam.awk 2019-10-07T01:39:21Z

Nice job! I like the graphics and the audio, the theme also comes thought very well! I would add some more polish to the UI and some particles but that's just me -)

Also, if you want, check out my entry here: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/45/nothing-on-frontlines

Witch's Cauldron by Kazatan 2019-10-07T02:48:43Z

@kazatan Great game! The only thing for me were the controls, I think it would be a lot easier if you used tank controls so pressing w sould make the witch go forward and a/d would make her turn. Other than that, the game is cool!

Circle Raider by Owen Shriver 2019-10-07T03:36:16Z

Nice game, placeholder graphics and the controls could be explained better!

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T01:35:32Z

@askingquestions thanks buddy!

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T01:41:35Z

@iconocatstudio thanks -)

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T02:06:24Z

@jeremy-ryan yeah, I always thought I had enought time but it got kinda close so the sounds aren't that great!

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T02:07:44Z

@adroitconceptions walls smashing turrets is a feature, they kill enemies too so if you can predict where they spawn, you can destroy a group of enemies. The turrets can't be placed too close to each other (orange color).

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T02:25:15Z

@musicblox thanks, I will fix the bugs after the rating weeks. I just got a little too big of a scope maybe so it was quite harsh on play testing. You, as always in the ladum dare...

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T02:34:44Z

@ordineu thanks for feedback! Maybe I should have used a different font... I think I did a good job having a seperate scene where you can explore so you got it eventually. Also, I put the controls in text on the page.

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T03:09:15Z

@zerptin thank you so much!

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T03:13:59Z

@lomt1k I know, they were rushed and I just used the generator ladum dare website provides

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T03:26:46Z

@bry nice, my best is 3.25! But you have to get lucky with the map. I also know some code things one can exploit so yeah, you can try to beat me but I bet you wont -) Lol

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T03:43:29Z

@appix thanks

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T03:48:51Z

@appoxgames that was intended!

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T03:57:15Z

@theseusinabottle yeah, I wanted to add a mute button but I sort of run out of time -) I know that it's quite annoying

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T03:59:55Z

@william-derksen yeah, I wanted it quite chaotic rather than strategic. The walls killing things are definitely something controversial but I added them to keep with the theme and have an empty battlefield at the beginning! Also, the walls kill enemies as well so if you can guess where they will spawn and place a dummy turret there for enemies to bunch up and get killed by the walls -)

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T04:14:19Z

@6smith maybe. Some of my friends suggested this could be fun with co-op so maybe I will polish this up and trying implement that (I used Photon Bolt for networking before so maybe it could work) and some of the other suggestions such as yours!

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T04:24:21Z

@winslow definitely, a lot of others have mentioned that

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T04:31:53Z

@zenpj @geoff-nagy thanks, I made a blog post where you can post your best time to see who can get the longest. if you want, you can try yourself out

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T04:37:41Z

@calamador I think a bit too much effects is better than too little.

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T11:15:40Z

@marcin-j lol, just look at any other comment, all the same thing talking about sounds, adding waves and the lightings and particles

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T11:29:56Z

@attala dude, there is a literal lobby scene in the game so you can test out the controls! Then of course when you jump in, shit goes crazy. That was the intention!

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T12:38:36Z

@berkin "complete", lol. The many definitely doesn't fall into that category 😆😆

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T12:55:27Z

@keith-wang yeah I know, but I didn't want to use a different font. Wanted to stay consistent...

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T14:25:39Z

@infraxion thank you. I liked how the tutorial worked out too lol 😀😆

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T15:16:25Z

@nachtwitch yeah, it was a bit of a hustle -)

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T17:44:30Z

@kazatan yeah, dummies are really good because allies can shoot thought them while enemies will take forever to destroy. They are also cheap and o great with the healing turret

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-07T22:47:06Z

@abacus what about them?

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-08T02:11:05Z

@pincushion they have to be a certain distance away from each other, the color code for that case is orange and that's the circle around the turret when you are placing it!

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-08T11:28:46Z

@frenchie yeah, maybe I need to clear them. Most people get to under 2 minutes. The game gets to its max difficulty at 2 minues so if you have a good efence premade it's not hard to keep going.

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-13T03:31:33Z

@danilo-freire haha, I know, look at any other comment! Also, in the description I added a recommendation to play without headphones. lol

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-14T14:40:18Z

@hcursino yes, I didn't teach it too well but you need to make sure the radius around the tower doesnt have any other buildings with in it! So when the tower is orange that means that you have the money but the location is too close to another turret

Nothing On Frontlines by Pavel Ivanov 2019-10-17T14:17:10Z

@karrar-home-student I don't understand what you mean?

Oh Dam! by Adam Konig 2019-10-07T03:38:17Z

Nice low poyl graphics, similar style to my game -)

PrintScript by walaber 2019-10-07T02:59:51Z

oh god, I should have read the manual -)

Idea Thief by FaculHere 2019-10-07T01:48:24Z

Haha, this game.... Humor 6/5! The bad graphics make it this much better!!!! -)

The Unknown Nude by romes 2019-10-07T11:31:57Z

Fun little game, I like the cure graphics! It just starts to feel a little repetitive after a short while!

Meager Genesis by Hajden 2019-10-07T15:20:19Z

So simple but very polished! The character sort of looks like a sperm thing. oh oh...

Monochromacy by ItsHornUnicorn 2019-10-07T04:06:23Z

Fantastic effects and the character is super impressive!

Tom is Lonely by pedromgdo 2019-10-07T02:40:58Z

Nice game, feels like super meat boy! The theme is not super visible but still a great job!

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (twenty six blanks) by 888 2019-10-07T01:54:35Z

Nice game, just a tip thought, maybe you could manage to get a Web GL build for a simple game like this. That would also make more people play the game. Downloading is sort of a pain! Nice game thought!!!

Robo-Fort by geoff.nagy 2019-10-07T01:41:07Z

@geoff-nagy Great job! I like the graphics! This game is also kind of similar to my entry except for my is 3D -)

Word Salad by philliptrudeau 2019-10-07T02:57:59Z

Very impressive to build this from scratch! Nice music as well!

Defenders by IndieEclipse Official 2019-10-07T11:19:57Z

Nice game! I like how you explain the controls!

Caravana by Josh.Galecki 2019-10-07T03:17:31Z

Wow, nice pixel art!

Yin-Yang by Keith Wang 2019-10-07T03:23:45Z

Those effects! Nice

Exit Nothing by Brice Mahier 2019-10-07T01:25:44Z

Like the idea, very good with the theme! Not too polished thought, for example the character could have been animated but of course, that would take away from the theme so there is always a balance to consider.

If you don't mind, give me feedback too -)

Monolife by SuryaPrakash 2019-10-07T03:42:57Z

Polished simple game! I like the controls!

Vessel by Gabriele 2019-10-07T04:38:52Z

Nice game!

Start Powerless by rob1221dev 2019-10-07T02:44:41Z

Cool game, thank you for including HTML5 and for giving us a mute button! Also great level design and neat scene transitions!

Ant Wars RTS by DragonsBeardGames 2019-10-07T03:32:53Z

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

FUD by zenpj 2019-10-07T04:04:04Z

Very simple but polished! Nice music and models!

LD46 — Keep it alive

don't dead it by drprettypatty 2020-04-20T04:05:25Z

Pretty nice. Very confusing tho. The controls are also a bit weird I found. Overall, loved the sounds and the graphics

Chicken Luck by tiptoe 2020-04-21T15:19:45Z

Very impressive polish level for a compo game! Is that a custom font or did you get it from somewhere? Can I know what its called? -)

Keep It Alive, Keep Enemies Dead by Maksim Chugunov 2020-04-20T17:01:48Z

Not bad. A bit confusing at first and the graphics need work! I liked the sounds tho and the gameplay once I understood it

Plant Life by HEXIEZ123 2020-04-20T17:48:07Z

Nice, really cool concept and visuals! One of the games that starts with the theme rather than applying an existing genre to it -) Overall, good job! (Chock out my game if you want lol)

Wavering Divinity by Brandon JS Lea 2020-04-20T04:10:09Z

Very nice graphics and sound effects. The gameplay feels a little unfinished as there isn't much strategy involved in the placing of the buildings!

Chess Mess by Pavel Ivanov 2020-04-20T04:42:57Z

@tattomoosa thank you for letting me know. I didn't have a way to test it as I only have a windows machine. I will see what I can do at this point as the compo is over now.

Chess Mess by Pavel Ivanov 2020-04-20T05:07:43Z

@supergamersgames yeah, there is no restart. My bad. You can always just die as an option, lol

Chess Mess by Pavel Ivanov 2020-04-20T05:09:59Z

@sneakycocoon thanks for the feedback. I agree it feels a little slow at the beginning stages, however, when you get to the later levels with cannons and stuff, the step by step structure is useful as well as the wait. It's a compo game so will have some loose ends...

Chess Mess by Pavel Ivanov 2020-04-20T14:54:23Z

@moebiusmeow I am sorry to hear it lagged. I have only tested it on my computer and its a pretty beastly one. I have play tested it on my system tho and never encountered the bug. The knights should jump over gaps, the rooks are for blocking cannon fire.

Chess Mess by Pavel Ivanov 2020-04-21T14:49:29Z

@afroant thank you! It's a compo game btw. I made as many levels as I had time for!

Chess Mess by Pavel Ivanov 2020-04-22T17:20:22Z

@drums thank you! I am glad you liked this!

King's Table by PetTurtle 2020-04-20T04:41:30Z

This is very clever. I like the graphics. Sounds are a little annoying. Now I am not the only one who made a chess game. hehe

Tempo Rogue by NicoNeko 2020-04-21T00:07:49Z

Cool graphics and super innovative idea! Greats sounds as well!

Kings Orders by BookerBlueJay 2020-04-20T15:16:05Z

Nice graphics. Like the feedback the game gives. Sounds get a tad annoying later so thankyou for letting me mute it, lol. Great job overall

Egg Bounce by SteelySam 2020-04-25T01:15:52Z

Cool game! Not quite polished all the way. Here are some of my suggestions: 1. Add a score counter 2. Make camera movement based on egg position not just constant movement. 3. Some visual indication of the lines disappearing would be nice because I kept dying because I didn't expect it to disappear.

Watch Your Head by MrFluffySheep 2020-04-20T03:44:08Z

Fun. Graphics aren't great... Good job overall!
