LD30 — Connected Worlds

Little Rainbow Story by Nelly 2014-08-25T09:33:00

OH! I get it!
A little awkward with the controls, no animation and no sound I can hear, but excellent game play mechanic!

Connected Pylons by Pat AfterMoon 2014-08-25T09:25:00

Brilliant. Got to level 36 before I gave up. I'm sure I'll play this for more than 48 hours it took to write it... WIN!

ColouredWorlds by sai_aya 2014-08-25T07:39:00

Finished the game! Boy that last level is hard! Excellent game, well done.

Got it working on Linux by
1. Adding the LÖVE PPA (https://launchpad.net/~bartbes/+archive/love-stable)
2. Adding LÖVE with (sudo apt-get install love)
3. cd into the installation directory
4. run "love ColouredWorlds.love"

LD31 — Entire Game on One Screen

PhotoBound by PIXEL^3 2014-12-09T08:01:00

Oh that's nice, very nice. The game mechanic is excellent, never seen that before.

Collector by Galan 2014-12-08T04:05:00

Hmmmm... Interesting introduction to Godot engine,

1 Screen Hero by zerocreativity1 2014-12-09T07:49:00

Very nice - top rated! Excellent graphics and attention to the theme.

Defense the Base by Jordan Kniest 2014-12-08T08:47:00

Oh I was disappointed until I saw what you did with the power-up purchase system! That was nice!

BEARPG by MaxguN 2014-12-08T03:24:00

Am I missing something? Sit on one side and kick and you get through all the enemies without trying. The graphics showed promise, I was just hoping for something more. Nice work completing the game though! Better than I did :)

Mobile gamer simulator by skyr 2014-12-08T09:12:00

Clever concept! :)

Super Arena Hell! by randomdragoon 2014-12-08T03:18:00

That's a crazy little game! Nice balance, without ever getting boring.

Snowman Simulator 2014 by sharpcoder 2014-12-08T03:29:00

I think you might have started this one before the 48 hours? I'd say this would hit the short list for the snowman theme that's for sure. Nice job!

Maze Escape by Gins 2014-12-08T04:28:00

That was a lot of fun, even in my tired and humourless state I was able to raise a smile :)

Contact Cowboy by jrap 2014-12-09T09:26:00

Very nice - this could be a winner!

PC WARS by Lafolie 2014-12-10T05:12:00

Very nice! A winner is me, finally - you gavce me a good 90 minutes entertainment, that's better than Michael Bay can say.

Spiral Dungeon by Pcholt 2014-12-08T02:42:00

To run under Linux, you have to run "java -jar SpiralDungeon.jar" from a command prompt in the SpiralDungeon_jar directory.

Spiral Dungeon by Pcholt 2014-12-08T02:42:00

Just checking the Windows port now.

Spiral Dungeon by Pcholt 2014-12-08T02:49:00

OMG Windows port works... without modification! All hail LibGDX!

Spiral Dungeon by Pcholt 2014-12-08T02:49:00

Now for sleep.

Spiral Dungeon by Pcholt 2014-12-08T08:30:00

Ah well there's only so much you can do with the time when you have other commitments. The monsters aren't animated because I spent more than 2 hours working on the Animation class from libgdx and couldn't work out how to apply it to Sprites. Also spent another two hours trying to debug a problem where the shadows cast by the walls were also being cast by the monsters in a very unrealistic fashion. It turned out I had two parameters to PointLight.setContactFilter round the wrong way :P

Spiral Dungeon by Pcholt 2014-12-08T23:57:00

Sound was added at the last minute - the sample is me hitting two pencils together - and played at 1/d^2 volume every time the monsters on the level take a step. The biting sound is me snapping my fingers.

Spiral Dungeon by Pcholt 2014-12-09T12:22:00

Do you think its permisible to add an objective and a win-condition after the deadline? I might host a bug-fixed verssion

Spiral Dungeon by Pcholt 2014-12-10T08:50:00

If you have the 'tiled' map editor, you can edit the map yourself to remove monsters and reduce the confinement near the end of the game.

I might be able to upload an update, considering the game is practically unfinishable in its current state?

Spiral Dungeon by Pcholt 2014-12-15T00:30:00

The links are back up - I upgraded the server and the apache process didn't start up :(

Escape The Abyss by Paperscraps 2014-12-08T22:41:00

Right mouse not working on Linux

Red Repair by Red Sigma 2014-12-08T09:01:00

Very impressive, I love the personalities of all the different ships.

Gnome's Dungeon by madmaw 2014-12-08T22:34:00

That's a nice little mechanic you guys have there. Has that been used anywhere else?

Duck, Jump, Die by Divitos 2014-12-08T08:37:00

Great happy feels in this game!

LD46 — Keep it alive

Keep The Spider Alive! by pcholt 2020-04-19T10:13:40Z

Sorry I don't have time to finish it and add graphics, music and multiple levels. :shrug:

LD47 — Stuck in a loop

I can see my future! by pcholt 2020-10-05T01:26:13Z

Very sorry to hear that @bloham , I was hoping the instructions were enough! The arrow keys (or W.A.S.D) move you around the screen, and you need to get to the exit.

LD57 — Depths

Distressing Depths by pcholt 2025-04-12T09:29:41Z

Updated https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=148369

Distressing Depths by pcholt 2025-04-12T09:31:16Z
