LD58 — Collector

a lot of fun! I will say that it gets really laggy pretty quick because of the sheer number of objects, and using explosions seems pretty over powered. Pretty satisfying game though!

Enchanted Blackjack by drikdrok 2025-10-07T07:13:07Z

I think this is a super neat idea! i really like the concept and having multipliers and free hands on cards is pretty fun. Unfortunately the deck is shared between the dealer and the player which means the dealer benefits as well when you add more 10s and aces. Also i think the game does not scale to fit other resolutions so some things seem cut off on my computer. I hope you expand on this idea in the future cause id love to play a full version!

Human Collector by The1 2025-10-07T21:22:29Z

very simple and satisfying! I wasnt sure what the yellow boxes did. I think something that modifies gameplay a bit more would be a good addition as well

Taos K.O. by YogurtTheHorse 2025-10-08T01:52:28Z

incredible. I wish the combat was clearer so it was easier to strategize around, because how a team will work together is a bit ambiguous. Otherwise, everything about this game is phenomenal especially for a game jam. great work !!

Daft Punks by Pannda 2025-10-07T03:38:25Z

plssss speed up the character cuz its rough trying to do anything.. also cute art, veery nice!

Unholy Black Hole by bereg 2025-10-07T08:04:00Z

this is some pretty impressive stuff for a compo entry! nice work on the graphics and SFX :) Ivve had some issues with the demons behaving weird and chasing in undesired directions which i think takes away from the satisfaction of consuming the npcs

Crimson Punk's Gem Hunt by droo shayne 2025-10-07T06:27:19Z

really awesome concept and pretty solid execution! i actually quite like the movement and physics, which i think is really hard to pull off with 3D platformers so good job!

Energy Rush by Stefan B. 2025-10-07T19:33:08Z

unsure how to complete a level. I think the general concept of guiding light and collecting it makes sense and could be interesting, but I think in combination with a maze where you dont even know where the goal is is frustrating. The music and art are nice though and the mouse movement feels good.

Clawful by Spaint 2025-10-07T07:49:43Z

this is actually really cool! im surprised about how well the claw physics works. the 3D modeling goes crazy too

Type II by Jo Bettaque 2025-10-07T19:14:02Z

I love the theming!! very solid andcohesive game. Its fun working out new strategies to try to maximize energy collection. I settled on making a ton of sattelites with oblong orbits so they nearly all the time there is at least one satellite really close to the star

Catch a Critter by mackelio 2025-10-07T19:20:22Z

this is HARD!! but also adorable and really well made, and the art is awesome. great job!

A Lifelong Hobby by Derek Glennon 2025-10-07T18:49:00Z

you did a great job mixing up the gameplay and pacing it out so that the player has to engage with every new element. I really like this game! I kind of wish there was a way of using the cards in some kind of gameplay, but that would probably be asking too much for a game jam haha. nice work!

Grand Trash Auto 3D by Agnira 2025-10-07T06:52:31Z

its pretty frustrating to move the truck and I think the time doesnt actually go up when you feed the monster, but maybe i just wasnt playing well enough. Vehicle movement is tough to do for such a short time period so I respect the ambition

Marble Trouble by mooyett 2025-10-08T01:58:27Z

incredible! I was hopingh to play more but had the bug where the game comes to a halt and i cant continue. Music and art is phenomenal, and genuinely fun

Seal the Deal! by sasik 2025-10-07T03:02:17Z

Pretty simple and i like the vibe! I was considering doing a similar concept but with ebay auctions. I think the gameplay is pretty repetitive and doesnt provide much of a challenge, just a test a patience really. Good job though, great work for such a short time period!

Collect or DIcE by Flinge 2025-10-07T06:37:16Z

actually incredible

C.A.P.S by zowell 2025-10-07T21:56:21Z

really awesome! quite a bit of depth, though some of the coin mechanics arent very intuitive until youve used them a couple times.

The A?! game by mr_mesmer 2025-10-07T08:11:53Z

incredible. i have no mouth and i must AAA

Claw & Collect by d-demetori 2025-10-07T19:01:28Z

Pretty cute game! i do wish there was some amount of strategy to it, though. Right now its just RNG based it seems

$ECURITY CHECK by babyfoodstudios 2025-10-07T02:47:57Z

art is incredible! I think starting off it was pretty unclear what the goal of the game was. Like im not sure what exactly the point of placing and organizing the items was besides the general idea of "collecting." Ran into an issue where I would pick up an item and try to place it and it would prevent me from doing anything with that item. Very cool game!

Counterfeit by Reglisse 2025-10-07T07:17:05Z

hi there! im trying to play your game but the rar files are confusing me. How can I extract these two separate parts? Its giving me an error

A1 MAS Collector by Boncebon 2025-10-07T06:47:33Z

hi there! you mention there being a web version that is more up to date? could you link that as well pls

Astro Gourmet by XGN 2025-10-08T01:33:30Z

no idea whats going on!

Collectorogue by HappySealGames 2025-10-08T01:19:57Z

This is really interesting! Ive never seen anything like this and i really like the 2D graphics and sfx. I agree with @binarydiv that splitting it up into two phases could allow more time for the player to engage with analyzing the items, rather than just stacking as much as possible. Also the cat is much too easy to deal with, up until it turns invisible!

Starbearer by Zillo 2025-10-08T01:01:30Z

Nice job! i like the skills and the game reminds me a lot of metroidvanias ive played

Stargazer by ProtoHere 2025-10-07T03:04:07Z

thanks! we were rushing to try to fix that at the end but ran out of time, and we're gonna fix that along with a couple other issues such as the high score not working in a future update. Thanks for playing !

Stargazer by ProtoHere 2025-10-07T07:52:47Z

gonna add arrows to the journal! right now you can use arrow keys to switch pages

Stargazer by ProtoHere 2025-10-07T18:03:40Z

yep, we're gonna try to fix the lag problem which is just shaders and particles not loading in ahead of time. Also, you can see all the constellations in the journal! jsut click left and right arrow keys

Stargazer by ProtoHere 2025-10-08T00:46:14Z

@dining-philosopher thanks! that was the vibe we were going for. You get points from collecting stars AND if you were to make a constellation out of them. some constellations have multipliers or effects that modify points. Also, if im understanding properly then the mouse losing "focus" is because a star that you were trying to form a constellation with died, breaking your constellation. thanks for playing!

Stargazer by ProtoHere 2025-10-11T05:56:53Z

@derek-glennon @matimoo thanks! i worked on the sound effects and im really happy with them. and @matimoo i like the idea of clearing the board and we'll probably add a constellation that automatically scores every star on screen for this

Stargazer by ProtoHere 2025-10-20T02:46:55Z

loving the feedback! thank you all! @torcado thats a huge score, probably the largest ive seen from another player.. I think my best is around 23,000 but im not sure how much of that comes from luck and/or knowing the game inside-and-out

HUEVO by Mikita gancharou 2025-10-07T08:28:19Z

Simple, cute game! Progression seems pretty easy, and at a certain point the limiting factor is how quickly you can click and drag the eggs to sell them. I think instead of the second feeder (which i think is useless if you just get the auto feeder?) it might be good to have something that automatically collects some eggs and sells them, or combines eggs into super eggs of high value. nice work!

METALOBAZA by Dunitru 2025-10-07T08:08:15Z

the movement seems a bit inconsistent and i wasnt able to get very far into the first level unfortunately becuz of this
