LD44 — Your life is currency

Oligarch by Thirsty 2019-04-30T15:20:16Z

Pretty cool idea, and the art is great. Kind of irritating that you have to go through the cutscene every time though.

CrazyAmbulance by C64Gamer 2019-04-30T08:32:00Z

Wow the praphics are amazing and the gameplay was really funny.

At all costs by zimennik 2019-04-30T10:13:20Z

It looks really good. The sensitivity was insanely high for me, but the gameplay was pretty fun. I like the atmosphere of the game; when I went outside I could just feel the pressure.

This is your life now by reuno 2019-05-01T11:17:39Z

The music and graphics were amazing. The art style is really original and I loved it. The aspect of the game is also really fun! If only getting a girlfriend irl was as easy as pressing space :)

Dead Only by pilly 2019-04-30T08:25:27Z

Haha I loved this, the graphics are amazing! A little frustrating / hard at times, but really fun overall. My favourite so far!

Wild Card Necromancer by JOrbits 2019-04-30T09:45:14Z

This game feels super satisfying. The controls were really easy, and thats a (really) good thing. The game was easy to understand and play. But that did not make the gameplay itself easy or boring. Really well done overall!

Trial 763 by baknik 2019-04-30T09:31:43Z

I like the idea of this game. I had quite a bit of fun playing it. Maybe it was just me, but the robot felt a bit slow. Also I spent a good minute trying to kill that first turret :smile: maybe next time it would be a good idea to make the sprite reflect its behaviour (Honestly not sure how I would do that in this case though, but it's just a tip. It did not take away from the experience).

Bunny Gigolo by ploy 2019-04-30T11:46:08Z

Hahaha what just happened, this is definitely the stranges thing I have seen yet. Not sure what I am supposed to think about this :laughing:

Life is Food by bnmkt 2019-04-30T09:25:44Z

Haha I love that eat animations. I actually like the art in general. The gameplay itself was onestly a bit boring though, but a pretty cool game nonetheless.

Devil's Death Collector by gamesplusjames 2019-05-06T18:17:26Z

Cool game, I love the neon theme!

Monolith by jsec 2019-04-30T09:50:44Z

Pretty cool intro, really ads depth to the game. I found aiming to be a bit hard though because of the quick turning, so i just shot in a circle and killed everything easily :laughing: I like the concept though. Graphics are simple, but still really good looking!

Kappetalize by Bojkott 2019-04-30T15:28:23Z

Really funny game. I'm amazed you managed to integrate multiplayer. Though I'm not sure if it really fits with the theme. Also the graphics are great, specifically the opening cutscene is AMAZING!

Does Money Grow on Trees by Antti Haavikko 2019-04-30T08:11:00Z

There's not that much to do, but it's suprisingly quite fun nonetheless. I especially love how clearly you explain how the game works in gameplay, instead of with huge piles of text. Also really cool graphics (:

Hellish Souls by Astavie 2019-04-30T15:02:22Z

Cool game, I really like the art and movement feels super snappy. Just like Robber said, the hitboxes do indeed feel a bit off sometimes. The music was also amazing! Great job!

Enemy Of The State by Darylsteak 2019-05-01T11:51:35Z

I love it, I just loved the whole Russia vibe of the game, really cool!

Fowl Goods by Ziamor 2019-04-30T11:43:57Z

I really love this art style, its amazing. Not sure how this ties in with the theme of the jam though, but a pretty cool game nonetheless.

LastSwap by EdevJogos 2019-04-30T09:18:51Z

Wow that was pretty awesome! It looks amazing. Really different from all other games. Amazing job!

Shark Turf by Gus the Shark 2019-05-01T11:13:21Z

I really enjoyed playing this, I also liked how the fisherman actually catches fish when they swim under his hook, cool detail. Honestly not sure if this fits the theme that well though, but cool game nonetheless!

Blood, Sweat, and Money! by WiseClock 2019-04-30T11:41:31Z

Pretty cool game, though I would have liked to have a fast forward button or something like that. The theme is indeed not very clear, like kypello said, but I don't think thats a big deal.

Whipout by Armadillq 2019-04-30T08:04:18Z

The graphics were a bit glitchy, but that did not take awway from my excitement, I actually really liked it! The music is great and I love how the traps are really clear, since it can be frustrating to get hit by a trap you didn't even see. Great job :)

Rashness by Saering 2019-05-01T11:31:13Z

That was amazing, it feels so polished and everything just works. Not something you see often on game jam games! I loved it, this is definitely one if my favourites!

Mayan Mayhem by Arcus 2019-04-30T10:09:08Z

I really like the graphics of your game, it fits your theme very well. Having to keep pressing T or G was a bit cumbersome, but the idea behind your game is really fun.

Humanmarketing by JK studio 2019-04-30T09:37:02Z

"Become a politician and f*ck the youth" :laughing: Haha that cracked me up! Really original idea, I haven't seen someone do something like this yet. I would have liked to see a bit more variation, since choices just came down to looking at your stats. Great game though, great job!

Welcome To The Machine by smuhlaci 2019-04-30T10:23:06Z

Pretty cool game, but I don't really enjoy narrative driven games, so I did not play a lot (it has nothing to do with your game). I did get one ending in, like, 2 minutes. Is it supposed to be done so quickly? I really like the art style by the way!

Sick Business by very dark lord 2019-04-30T10:19:35Z

The game looks and sounds amazing. Definitely something I would want more of. A very nice tough on the theme of the jam. I felt like movement was a bit slow though, maybe you could have made it just a little bit faster.

Addiction: Your Life is Currency by Krapht 2019-05-01T11:28:13Z

My character disappeared of the screen too, I think it's just because you didn't clamp the player within the boundaries of the game so you can just walk off on the top or bottom. The movement also feels a bit unresponsive, mainly because you keep moving for a bit after letting go of the keys and the character is quite slow. The game itself is pretty fun though.

Anti-Hero by DrumGadget_433 2019-04-30T14:53:31Z

Really cool idea, I think it was quite easy to understand what to do, but actually mastering it is really hard. The graphics are also really cool!

Black and White Dungeon by YiNian 2019-05-01T12:05:27Z

I kinda liked it, the graphics were simple but still quite nice. The design in general is a bit lacking, like others already said. I'm also more of a programmer than a designer :smile:

EnigmaDeath by DigitalLimestone 2019-04-30T08:45:12Z

I really like the idea of this, it was actually quite satisfying. Also great touch respawning the player close to where he die, instead of at the same place every time. I think that was a really important decision. Though I do think the camera could have been a little snappyer, it felt a bit sluggish at times, for instance when falling down.

Pay with your life! by Peterrior55 2019-04-30T08:57:23Z

I love how fast paced this game is. If you die you just try some different loadout and jump right back in.

DEA-7H by b3agz 2019-04-29T22:39:37Z

I really enjoy the whole vibe of the game; sprites, sound, everything! Though I do think the controls are a bit awkward.

The Devil's Coins by Kevin Liu 2019-04-30T08:17:05Z

The game was a little easy, even with the horrible controls. But a actually really love the gameplay itself, the idea is really cool and the game integrates with this idea really nicely.

Delta Fighter by LiauJ 2019-05-01T11:55:18Z

I like it. The controls feel very responsive, which is something that people often mess up in these kind of games which can really ruin the whole game.

The Devil and Some Aliens Went down to Georgia by David Markham 2019-04-30T08:49:00Z

I really liked it, though I think everything feels a bit slow. Especially because of the slow player movement it felt a bit unsatisfying.

Hospital Horrors by PseudoBytes 2019-04-30T08:37:53Z

@alexfsmirnov @christopher-wong Thank you guys so much! I actually got the sound effects and graphics from somewhere else. I'll add that to this page right now. I don't really enjoy graphics and like to spend more time coding :)

Hospital Horrors by PseudoBytes 2019-04-30T08:38:06Z

@quagga Also thank you, I spent quite a lot of time trying to make it feel decent and fair.

Hospital Horrors by PseudoBytes 2019-04-30T08:38:22Z

@bnmkt Again, thank you! Yeah I don't enjoy long tutorials or piles of text, so I decided to do it this way.

Hospital Horrors by PseudoBytes 2019-04-30T09:41:51Z

@almost You're absolutely right, I definitely should have made something that crosses out upgrades you can't afford. Waiting for energy to recover was indeed very stupid at times, but the problem was that without it you could just spam shots from a distance. But I'll keep that in mind for later games! Thank you for your feedback, it really helps! :)

Hospital Horrors by PseudoBytes 2019-04-30T09:53:06Z

@zimennik Haha true, I was looking for music and found that elevator music. Since I did not have a lot of time left and don't enjoy doing music/sound effects I was like; oh well I guess I'm doing this now :laughing: Thank you! :)

Hospital Horrors by PseudoBytes 2019-04-30T10:06:36Z

@arcus Thank you :) I'm not very good at level design, so I made projectiles spawn blood splatters. Not only to make it feel like they have an effect on the world, but also so that the player "designs" part of the level himself. Not sure how I should explain it, so I hope you understand what I mean :p

Hospital Horrors by PseudoBytes 2019-04-30T10:15:04Z

@duke Later un you can actually get upgrades that refill your health, but of course then you won't be able to purchase another upgrade, so its a tradeoff. Thank you :)

Hospital Horrors by PseudoBytes 2019-04-30T10:16:48Z

@alien-fox Yeah I may have gone a bit overboard trying to fill up the levels, I'll definitely keep that in mind next time. Hopefully I'll be a bit better at art by then so that I can make my own sprites. Like I said to duke, later on you get upgrades to refill your health. Thank you! :)

Hospital Horrors by PseudoBytes 2019-04-30T10:29:31Z

@mimusangel Yes there is, later on the upgrades can give you more hp, but at the cost of not being able to buy another upgrade. Thank you :)

Hospital Horrors by PseudoBytes 2019-04-30T10:49:05Z

@sam-machell Wow yes, that music would have been so much better. I did not have enough time and energy left to find good music, perhaps that was not the best decision... Thank you :) I guess it saved me a lot of time not making my own sprites, so that I was able to spend way more time coding (my favourite part)

Hospital Horrors by PseudoBytes 2019-04-30T11:19:56Z

@valden Yeah it would have definitely been better if the fireball would have done less damage, also I should have put a timer on the fire, wouldn't have been very hard to do. Thanks for the feedback :)

Hospital Horrors by PseudoBytes 2019-04-30T12:06:38Z

@retti01 Thank you :) I did not make the sprites myself though, I'm horrible at art, but I'm glad you liked it!

Hospital Horrors by PseudoBytes 2019-04-30T12:44:28Z

@tasakasama Thank you! I'm glad you liked it, I really appreciate it.

Hospital Horrors by PseudoBytes 2019-04-30T15:22:33Z

@bentebent Yeah more people didn't like the audio. And honestly, I don't really either. Shooting over low object would have actually been a great idea, I didn't even think about doing that. Thank for the feedback :)

Hospital Horrors by PseudoBytes 2019-04-30T15:25:33Z

@shunaky Thanks, this actually really helps. I'm always having trouble with colliders. That sounds like a good idea. I never played the Binding of Isaac, I just thought it would be a good idea :)

Hospital Horrors by PseudoBytes 2019-04-30T16:28:11Z

@oddsocks Thank you SO much! I'm glad you liked it :)

Hospital Horrors by PseudoBytes 2019-04-30T16:46:19Z

@jason-porritt hmm that's strange, maybe you could try the downloadable version if you really want to play it. I made it with that in mind and later ported it, so maybe thats the reason.

Hospital Horrors by PseudoBytes 2019-04-30T17:04:34Z

@nava Thank you :) I really appreciate it!

Hospital Horrors by PseudoBytes 2019-04-30T22:13:17Z

@szabe Thanks! Haha, the foundation of the code isn't so great though, luckily you can't see that :p The stress of having to produce something decent quickly got to me.

Hospital Horrors by PseudoBytes 2019-05-01T11:48:01Z

@black-potion Haha sounds great, I'm glad you liked the game, or at least one mechanic of it :p

Hospital Horrors by PseudoBytes 2019-05-01T13:22:08Z

@tamail Yeah I actually did that on purpose. I give the player the feeling of freedom, but I force the player to choose dash to gradually teach him/her the game. Thanks for the feedback :)

Hospital Horrors by PseudoBytes 2019-05-04T22:45:11Z

@edevjogos Thank you, I really appreciate it :)

Shooter on a Budget by Christopher Wong 2019-04-30T09:22:06Z

That was great. I love the graphics, simple yet effective. All graphics and audio just work really well together. Also it just felt satisfying in general. The text at the right was a bit small and hard to read though.

Cards of Life by mapleglaze 2019-04-30T08:53:55Z

There was not that much to do, so how did I spent 15 minutes playing this game! The gameplay feels great, which is what kept me playing for relatively long. Like Nick said, the card flipping animation is really good actually.

Life Pact by jaoel 2019-04-30T15:04:56Z

Pretty fun game, though the map feels a bit empty at times. It doesn't help that movement feels a bit sloppy because you keep moving for a little bit after letting go of your WASD keys, but this comes down to personal preference. Overall the game feels well done and complete!

24 hours by Retronator 2019-04-30T09:57:35Z

I love it, especially how you unlock more things over time. It gradually learn you how to manage your time and how the game works. I also like the look of the game in general, I really like this style. Like caranha said, certain events would be really cool and would add a lot of depth and replayability.

Blood for Blood by tapehead 2019-05-01T11:24:24Z

Really original idea, I love it. It all just works well together and I think that it is very intuitive, great job!

Escape from Hell by Becher 2019-04-30T09:08:15Z

The art and animations are amazing! The player was a bit slow, but I guess that allowed me to appreciate your amazing art :)

utsvulten by ditto 2019-04-30T10:27:32Z

Oh my god I started loughing so hard when his head fell off :laughing: Really interesting and funny game!

Currencies of Life by Bartman 2019-04-30T12:54:43Z

I like this art style. Also the score-board is a nice addition.

Victor Spumante And The Raindrops of Burgundy by gimblll 2019-04-30T12:51:19Z

This was... WOW... I'm out of words. Definitely the best game I've played yet!

BetYourLife by JabbaScript 2019-04-30T08:19:51Z

Wow this game fits perfectly with the theme of the jam. Simple yet effective.

NecroBlood by Little Valhalla 2019-04-30T09:00:56Z

Wow it looks... AMAZING! I love the sprites! But it did feel a bit empty without any music and sound effects. Gameplay is also really fun, though a bit slow.
