I like this game. Good story, nice dialogue, cool graphics. When I first saw it I thought that it was zoomed too much, but it turned out to be okay. It's a bit annoying how fast the screen scrolls when he moves and how I can't keyboard repeat the arrow keys, but all in all a really good game
I like the simple graphics scheme, but the jumping feels floaty or something. I don't know... it just doesn't feel right.
Seriously impressive graphics. I like the idea of not knowing where the submarine is, but I've found that I never know where it is until it's about to surface
Nicely animated graphics. I like the changing water mechanic and what you did with it. A Linux build (if you can) would be nice =]
Can you fix the screen resolution? My screen isn't big enough to display the entire window
Why bother linking all three downloads to the same jarfile?
Anyway, nice game. I didn't really see the cards doing anything, but eventually it got really cold or something and everyone died within 5 seconds.
Reminds me a lot of hack. I would go and cross-compile a bunch of binaries for you, but I can't get mingw to statically link against pdcurses. Nice game, though
Wow. You programmed this in C? Not many people use C for a ludum dare. I like C
Can't quite figure out how to really do anything...
Interesting. I like the music and alien speech sounds, but the controls feel a bit weird to me. Nice graphics and animation, though!
I don't really see much point in linking multiple downloads to the same thing, but meh I don't really care. The music is a strange combination of pleasant and annoying... it's weird. It's pretty hard, but not in a bad way.
Nice game, but once I get a bunch of units and a good wall the challenge is essentially gone. The dragons just stay there about half a second and then go away.
Some help text explaining the controls would be nice =]
Nice, fun, and simple. I like it
fun and interesting but a little confusing
Interesting... I like the simple graphics style but the tiles that only collide on the top aren't obvious enough and the platforming feels a bit floaty to me. The controls were very familiar to me, though, from both my game and numerous other games I've played
Nice and simple graphics. I like how it shows you both your high score and your last score
Love the lighting. Looks like it could be a pretty good game with some polish
Nice, but the weird spikes at the top and bottom of the screen sometimes make it a bit hard to tell where the tiles are. The text on the death screen is also a bit hard to read
Thanks. There was one point in development, right after we added the limited view when it was really fun to just go and dig the ores. We're considering working on this post-ludum dare
We were going to add a few more things, like lava pools and enemies, but we didn't have enough time.
I couldn't quite figure out how the generator should place the lava pools, because if I made them flow too much the whole thing would end up lava.
I probably should've made it more obvious, but that happens when you mine out all a block's neighbors and it falls on your head. It's a bit glitchy-- I'll either get rid of it or make it better in the newer version that I'm working on =)
Pretty difficult, but one of the most fun games I've seen yet. I love the walking animation, but the death screen takes just a bit too long to fade out
The font is a bit hard to read, but other than that I think that this is one of my favorite LD games I've played. I love the idea of a stack of drawings and a curious sketch looking to see what's below.
Very fun game, one of my favorites this time around. Love the idea and the simple graphics, but the font is a bit hard to read.
Why does he faceplant when he jumps?
