LD20 — It's Dangerous to Go Alone! Take This!

Don't Go Alone by pgil 2011-05-02T21:35:00

I just draw the entire screen to a surface, then draw it three times each frame. The first time I draw it normal, without interpolation. The next three times I draw them with additive blending and interpolation on, one colored red, one green, and one blue, each one offset one pixel from each other. I also cycle it so their positions and alpha values are slightly different every other frame. The scanlines and darkened borders are just a single image drawn on top of everything.

Don't Go Alone by pgil 2011-05-02T23:58:00

Did you try going through the game without the stranger's help? You'll have to find a shortcut.

Priority Cats by Tom 7 2011-05-02T02:57:00

I love this. Controls are totally frustrating but I don't care. I'll figure it out.

The Legend of Mulida by Nora Shishi 2011-05-02T17:58:00

I get a weird issue with the controls. Usually the walking speed is really slow--but for some reason, when I have a youtube video playing in another tab, the game works the way it should. Maybe it's something to do with how Flash checks the mouse potition?

Anyway, it was fun when I got it to work.

Appy 1000mg by deepnight 2011-05-02T03:20:00

Love this. It's not what I expected. Though I would have preferred scrolling to the jumpy camera.

Take This by jovoc 2011-05-03T23:50:00

I get a super-generic error when I try to run this: "takethis.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close." Which is too bad, because I thought it looked cool :(

Take This by jovoc 2011-05-03T23:51:00

That was the windows version btw...

"Alone" by natpat 2011-05-02T20:23:00

This was fun, though I did get stuck in a few walls and had to restart the level.

Who Goes There? by Orangy Tang 2011-05-02T23:36:00

This game looks great, but it crashed after I tried to leave a room (the one with the guy who broke space-time). This was the Windows version btw:

---------------------------
Game: WhoGoesThere.exe - Application Error
---------------------------
The instruction at "0x0c74c059" referenced memory at "0x0c2af140". The memory could not be "read".

Click on OK to terminate the program

Forever Alone by Fizzik 2011-05-02T18:08:00

The game hangs for me as soon as I leave the bedroom in the first level. :(

LD21 — Escape

Hotel Escape by pgil 2011-08-23T07:54:00

Whoops. I knew I forgot something. Source added!

Poltergeist by Gib 2011-08-22T19:43:00

Looks cool, but the screen scrolls at about half the speed that my character walks. Anyone else having that problem?

Escape Paradise by kavs 2011-08-22T21:31:00

I got stuck in a wall moving from that room in the first screenshot (with the spider) to the left. Still, a nice little game.

LD23 — Tiny World

Gum Crisis In Pipe City by jason.bakker 2012-04-27T16:22:00

Had a lot of fun with this. The sounds and graphics are funny, and it's a pretty original idea. My only complaint is the scrolling doesn't allow me to see where I'm going.

Montezuma's Tomb by recursor 2012-04-25T01:14:00

Looks cool, but I found a bug. Sometimes I get stuck at the bottom of ladders, and the only way to get unstuck is restart.

Montezuma's Tomb by recursor 2012-04-25T01:22:00

I keep getting stuck at the bottom of ladders, and the only way to get unstuck is restart. This happens in both the compo and jam versions. The game looks fun, though. I like the sounds and the oldschool feel.

To What a Mountain? by cageinabird 2012-04-23T13:47:00

Fun little game. If I had to critique one thing, the positional panning of the sound is too extreme. Since the player character is on the left side of the screen most of the game, 90% of the sounds come from one speaker. This was great though. Loved the ending!

Pocket Planet by MoltenMustafa 2012-04-22T21:59:00

Really great looking game. I love all the different music. Leveling up is takes a long time, though.

ANtopia by pgil 2012-04-23T00:28:00

Uploaded a new version before the deadline... It just fixes some graphical glitches :)

ANtopia by pgil 2012-04-27T17:25:00

Whoops. Yeah, I'd uploaded a new copy of the source because the old one had the wrong readme. Guess I forgot to update the link. Fixed!

Scape by intmain 2012-04-25T14:29:00

Really nice! I got stuck on level 8, but I'll probably come back to it.

LD26 — Minimalism

Minimal Jump by hamrath 2013-04-28T17:10:00

Fun, simple game, although if you hit the side of a platform while it's moving toward you, sometimes you can get get stuck in it and have to restart. You have time to fix it, though!
