LD19 — Discovery

THE DISCOVERY WAS SPIDERS by Six 2010-12-21T20:12:00

Interesting demo. :)

The shadows look... strange. They look like big black columns...

Not sure what you had in mind, but I'd like to see it!

Gyroids by X-0ut 2010-12-22T03:53:00

I, too, wanted to like this. The control scheme is kind of weird.

Numpad would have been worse for me, as I don't actually have one.

The graphics are very nice, but the gameplay is so-so. Very frustrating. :(

With some tweaking, this could be an awesome game. It has a lot of potential. Please keep at it :)

Dry Voices: who are you? by droqen 2010-12-21T20:18:00

Very nice :)

Got a bit lost, though. I like how the graphics and music match up, too. The player character being a white "blob" kind of thing was odd, but probably the best you can do at that scale, I think.

Good work! ^_^

Introspect by ChainedLupine 2010-12-25T17:25:00

Cool stuff.

I love the graphics, very nicely done.

The audio is a bit sparse, but I think music may have actually detracted from it a bit.

Horizontally moving platforms are a bit... troublesome. They should carry you with them, but I realize that Flixel might not allow for that without some icky hacks.

All in all, very nice game.

Where am I? by Benn 2010-12-21T23:13:00

I like this game :)

The idea of having multiple sets of walls that each flash momentarily when you hit then is really neat.

Very nice ^_^

City State: Inspired Destiny by quin 2010-12-24T14:33:00

Neat little game, my friend. :)

I like the use of the theme.

Bit of humor in the use of the Philosoraptor for the philosophy icon. I like that. :)

DirectionsTranscend by Devenger 2010-12-22T13:04:00

This is really neat. :)

A bit frustrating, but very original.

Fun stuff. Made me smile ^_^

Attack of the time travelling pygmy from outer paleolithic (aka Time Pygmy) by deepnight 2010-12-22T15:44:00

This game made my Ludum. It really did. Great work, mate.

The game reminded me a bit of Achievement Unlocked, but in a very good way.

Great game, lots of fun to play.

Dodge and Collect! by Elegwa 2010-12-21T20:10:00

I like the graphical look, but the ship was a little wide. Also, the asteroids didn't always seem to register hits with the ship, and bullets often didn't disappear when they hit asteroids.

Still looks like it could be a fun game with some tweaking. :)

Minescape by entheh 2010-12-22T03:47:00

Pretty good game, but reminds me of other "Dig for diamonds, avoid things falling on your head" games.

Graphics were a bit odd. The guy's a little too round.

I downloaded the "Linux" version, but it opened in WINE. Did you link to the wrong file?

The sound is a little bit wonky. The music is a little choppy and there don't seem to be sound effects.

Run by Cosine 2010-12-22T03:56:00

Game does not seem to run on my machine. I am on Fedora 14 using the Fedora build of WINE.

It's really a shame, as the game looked like it could have been fun. :(
