LD46 — Keep it alive

Keep It Alive by danman9914 2020-04-25T07:49:59Z

That's a one of the greatest game from that Ludum I've played! Great pixel art, sounds are discernible and because of them I hadn't to check what's going on. Some words about story: till the end I thought that we transport something like gas, like in Mad Max world, were the beating heart is one part of train's engine. You completely well done with topic! It feels through gameplay and narrative! And if that game become bigger, I'll probably gonna play in extended version.

The Wrecker by bmacintosh 2020-04-23T06:09:29Z

Good work! The game have really cool graphic style, excellent gameplay (smashing the walls was pretty fun to me) and it really was about the theme "keep it alive" like "keep town alive". Really good game) Good luck with other games!

Lay Down Your Roots by NotExplosive 2020-04-26T08:40:42Z

The gameplay, visual solution and sound are great!

I want to continue to develop the plant after it has a fruit. Maybe it is worth implementing a full life cycle of the plant? It would also be great to be able to save "photos" of plants.

Very relaxing game. I want to keep playing! :)

Morphology by Shess 2020-04-23T11:30:26Z

Great graphics! Intresting way to create a tomogotchi game looking not so tomogotch-y, and I love that u made it like scine experement! For me that kind of "puzzle" very interesting and it motivates to play till u discover all evos.

I hope, that you continue working on it, and some day it will be released!

HAL 2020 by OveRMolo 2020-04-22T17:11:39Z

I liked the idea, but if the game would be longer, it'll be awesome!

Hell Yeah! by ryzy27 2020-04-22T17:35:05Z

I love ur way of iterpretation of Ludum's topic! Great that u made tutorial, but for me it was very short, and because of this I've understood how to play only in second day…

Fussy Kitty by cjgammon 2020-04-25T06:21:35Z

Well, the idea of trying to keep this pet alive is ok, but It would be better if it would be any manual, animations for buttons and pet and other little things. But Tamagochi is stil fun to play with)

Saving Caesar by SundanceKid 2020-04-23T11:53:05Z

The idea is great, and I'd like to play in it, but extremely hight mouse sensety killing all gameplay and experience. And I haven't seen any feedback from hitting enemies, or may be my attack haven't reached an enemy(but I've stood almost inside of enemy, and I could get damage form him, but I couldn't kill him)

Job-Changing Janitor Fights Off Zombies And Tries To Save Patients At A Hospital by Grentacular 2020-04-25T06:40:56Z

Damn, its cool! Firstly i was confused with controls, but after several deaths i understood how to play. And it was fun! Great work)

Wanted: Alive! by Dan Colman 2020-04-25T11:42:15Z

Great game! For me thera one bad point: I want to have a visual mark of availability to dash. Anouth talking bout bad things! You made a great game, and I want to see extended version!

Trail Blazer by Teo Yong Jie 2020-04-22T17:19:17Z

Great game and idea! Very qute art! But back background is glitchy: I can see something through it… and it makes a little bit hard to have a long session.

Alien EMT by Zypo 2020-04-22T17:45:50Z

Great style, but I didn't understod how to find aliens. Only once I've found alien by accident…… or it wasn't accident, but if not that looked like accident in my eyes…

VampySitter by MacDoom 2020-04-26T06:32:20Z

This vampire is so cute! I liked the game and had a lot of fun! The animation and sound are very funny, the graphic style creates a Gothic atmosphere.

You can get stuck in the game for a long time. :) It would be great to add a result counter to compare the time and number of victims in different sessions.

Peacemaker by Sandra Jasionowska 2020-04-24T23:22:28Z

A great game! I liked the color palette and the graphics in genreal. The idea is adorable. Few times the game didn't recognise me pressing E but it's a very small flaw.

Let It Burn by lootgrounds 2020-04-22T17:07:49Z

Great Graphics! That game quite similar in visual with LittleInferno… But u've done a great work!

One Step Darker by thijs9907 2020-04-22T19:25:59Z

The animation of character is too slow, it’s annoying.

Despite this I really enjoy the game! Puzzles have optimal complexity, I can find a way out. Atmosphere of the game is great and the connection between lantern and man looks interesting.

Outta Juize by Kiln 2020-04-23T06:23:16Z

WOW! Its cool! You MUST continue working on this game. It can be really good point in your game-developer-profile! Something more with spending scrap, new guns, enemies or sth... well, it can be really good. Good luck to you!

The Tree of Life by Unicorn Studios 2020-04-25T08:32:04Z

It's a great game! Fantastic sound and graphics! I felt that hitbox of player weapon smaller than sprite and smaller than lumberjack's reach, and that makes some discomfort, but just for 1st wave. It's great idea: playing for druid)

Wel dome!

Berndmän und Wonderstevie Adventures XIII: keep it alive by AberDerBart 2020-04-23T05:36:14Z

Damn, it was cool! XD Dialogs were extra-fun) Its cool game, so good luck to ya!

of_t by taffyko 2020-04-22T18:26:44Z

That visual so cool!!!! It very srylish! For me it would be better if u make some worlds bout our goal… And that oneshoot cliff making me frustrating, like "why I fall? for what reason that cliff here?". And because of that cliff I found the beast strategy is "running around the force field". I don't know have u designed it or not, but for me it looked like an exploit) Great work!!!!

Akhlut by David Kutak 2020-04-22T17:57:26Z

I’d enjoy it! The game have good mood due to interesting sounds and cool graphics. I liked the concept of a creature with two forms.

The camera's twitchy movements is a hindrance. I got stuck in logs and other small parts on the ground. If you quickly press shift, you can make jerks, even if the acceleration has ended. I was lost in the woods periodically. Maybe some visual landmarks could help me.

I liked the mechanics. Two tasks at the same time is interesting. I want checkpoints so that I don't have to start from the beginning every time.

Keep It Alive by DoctorTM 2020-04-23T05:50:15Z

Ya, tutorial would be great here. Didn`t get how to chop trees down, and spend much time to understand how game works... but the idea is still good) This wolf on background and sound of the fire made really good atmosphere! Anyway, thanks, it was kinda cool to play (at least this game works XD)... Good luck to you!

Keep Hope Alive? by Karenin Dmitry 2020-04-22T11:56:21Z

Loved the artwork and the idea of handing letters is great. I had minor problems with the map but apart from that, it's good

LD 46 - Guinea Pug by Notredamstra 2020-04-26T07:20:04Z

It is difficult for me to control the capsule, because it is not clear where it will fall after the jump. Sometimes I got stuck at the edge of the platform and got out by long pressing "w".

I like this runner. It's great that the dog has a funny little backstory. Also the game has a very nice minimalistic style. Great job!

Movin' and Keepin' Alive by G.A.GameStudio 2020-04-25T07:07:32Z

ITs AWESOME if you are really 11 y.o. I had problebs with the jump, but anyway it was fun)

Untitled Tree Game by Raphaeltan 2020-04-23T11:44:34Z

Well done! I love your low-poly graphics! Great sound, wich immerse into the atmosphere of taking care of tree. But I've been a little confused because of rotating all the time…

Take The Cargo Home by Hello.ST 2020-04-22T19:05:21Z

I join the comments about uncontrolled rotation. And I get seasick. :( I think you will solve problems soon.

I like minimalistic graphics, music, charming live cargo and the idea itself.

I didn't know where to go at the begging of the game. Can you add a pointer to the target? Also, maybe two-handed control would be better? Use one hand to control the tilt, and the other – turns and movement.

Congratulations on your first jam!

Can Adequately Generate Charge, C.A.G.E. for short! by Izokia 2020-04-24T23:55:50Z

I like the idea! Very nice to play. Controls weren't too good at some games but it wasn't a huge problem. Now that i found the secret root i can see why the game is called CAGE huh

Stand Still by Draelent 2020-04-29T09:30:35Z

Introsting idea, but you should have told somewere adout that thing wich kills you.
