This was brilliant! I love the disconnect with the sereneness of the music with the sheer rage pumping through an angry mans veins. Was very satisfying OHKOing sukkahs on the way home. [SPOILERS] Also HILARIOUS busting your fridge open hahahhaha. Great work! See you next jam :)
Nice work on this one. Was quite tricky too keep all those critters alive, guess I'm more of a dog person. See you next jam :)
Nice work, especially on the art and music. I liked how the audio filter shifted when you were dead, I'll have to look into how that's done as it really had a nice effect here. GOod job, see you next jam :)
Cool idea. There's a ton in this! I'm really impressed you managed to code all that in 48 hours WHILE also juggling at the same time!
Real nice idea and very well executed. Really love the art style as well as the splitting the screen effect when you add more noteboys. My only improvement would be to make the controls a little more responsive as theres a bit of a time delay between clicking and the jump happening. Great job nonetheless! See you next jam!
Cool little game. I like the vibe and the concept. My only tweek would be to make the initial stage with only one worker a little shorter so you have more to do quickly. Nice amount is in this game for the time available to make it. Good job, see you next jam :)
Fun little adventure. Like the opening cinematic and the sounds in particular. Those damn spiders kicked my ass first game so I got some revenge once I got a bat hahha. Great Job, see you next jam :)
heheh this was funny but too real man! Looking forward to the DLC ;) See you next jam
Nice work here! I think the game satifies the theme nicely. Being a dumb ass it took me a day to realise that you can grab stuff from the boxes to give to the bunnies. I liked the day-night timer and the art in general. Good job, see you next jam :)
Great job! I really liked the vibe. The loading of the second level took a little while given the size of it, not a problem, but I just expect a level that size to load pretty instantly.
I was really into this game. Unfortunately I don't have a VR setup so couldn't play like that but did play fine on my chrome browser. I loved the minimal look and the audio fitted perfectly. I'd be interested in seeing any updates you make to this later. Great work, see you next jam!
I really really liked this concept. The controls were quite close together but I think that added to the fact that this was meant to be a brain cluster so didn't see it as much of a negative. I got to level 6 and got hit on the last wave of red dots. Also love the emergant music that's created. You could add a little percussion underneath to fill the space between waves in a round but that's a very small thing. Out of interest, how far does it go level-wise?
Wow there's a ton gone into this! Really great stuff with a bit of a gwent-but-on-arakis vibe to it. I love it and I'd love to see how this progresses post LD. I wasn't sure how best to place my troops as I had no idea what the computer was going to place, so I wasn't sure how best to plan my moves.
My best time was 41 seconds. Those Birty's really lay the smack down! I liked how the mech's movement noise was like a music beat, pretty cool idea there! One thing that'd improve it for me is if I could see a bit more of the surrounding area so that i'd be able to see the birties coming. Great job, see you next jam :)
Nice work! It must be a nightmare building a collide system. Good effort on that though, I didn't find the bug while I was playing :)
HAHAH that sound when you die, like you stepped on a cat or something hehhe!! Hilarious game and a great use of the theme.
Nice work, I think this captures the theme really well! I am particularly impressed with the pathfinding. Great job, see you next jam :)
HAHAHAH I LOVE this! Really like all the references and I totally get what you've been going through there with the ideas meta game. This is brilliant. Only improvements would be a little bit of UI and perhaps some sound though I see you've opted out of the audio section. Perhaps if you get some time to work on the game later though :) See you next jam :)
Really great idea and quite a tricky one too.
This is stunning! The art is soo good and the colours you've chosen are awesome. Great design concept too. I found some of the platforming quite tough but that's really just answered by a bit of git gud so that's not a problem. I loved the instructions being part of the background and I loved the way the camera held on them and near doors. The camera is my only mini critisism in that sometimes, I think it was when I was near an exit, it would move away from the direction I was trying to go as I think it expected me to want to go towards the exit. I'm not sure I've described that too well and I think it's less important than how good the camera feels in general in the game. Great work overall! Look forward to seeing you in the next jam!
Hahah this is great! A lovely minimal entry. Sorry your first game didn't work out, keep at it though :) See you next jam.
Nice job, I'm impressed with the size of the level for the amount of time available. I really liked that you saw all the traps in the early game before knowing that they are not just bits of decoration in the background. I really liked the mood that the audio affords.
Hahah, I'd not heard of this game but will definitely bring it up when I next speak to my friends from down under. My xbox control seemed to work fine but I didn't get the keyboard to remove the images behind. Nice pixel art and animation. See you next jam :)
Great first go programming this. This looks super good for a first run! Really like the concept of a sumo ring and bashing your opponents out of it. You are right that it's thin on the theme but I think a way to look at it is this: the theme may help bring someone without an idea some inspiration, those with an idea already might just feel constrained by it. In other words, use the theme if it works for you, if it doesn't work for you then dump it, it's trash :) Great job! See you at the next jam :)
Really beautiful looking game. The glow and gate charge effects are really well done and you have chosen colours well. I think a small improvement would just be a level counter so I know how far i've gotten. Great stuff though :) See you next jam!
Really nice looking game, particularly that drag bounceback. I really like the concept too of having to get rid of stuff while life admin's on your tail. I couldn't quite figure out how to throw the apps away after they'd installed.
Hahahah that explosion sound is hilarious. I really love that you've flipped the convention of collecting coins to avoiding coins! Of course the first round I played (even though I read the instructions) I collected the coins and then exploded my face on that corner. Years of gaming has given me an instinct for collecting coins that I'm now going to question on every new odyssey I explore ;) Great work! See you next jam.
This is pretty fun. I really like the use of the theme, the more presents the kids got the badder they became. I would say it's pretty hard though as you don't get too much chance to react to a present falling. If the field of view was a little bigger I might have more of an impact. Probably just my old fingers though ;) Another thing I might add is a timer or something to end the game in failure if you don't destroy enough quickly etc. Just some thoughts. Great game! See you next LD :)
This was fantastic! The font and the typewriter sfx was perfect. The story kept me playing between rounds and the puzzels were just challenging enough to provide some failed attempts without becoming frustrating. A very well crafted compo game! Go and rate some games so that other people see this because this is awesome!
I'd also suggest a HTML version might get some more players too. You can build for that in unity too in the build settings.
For anyone else trying to play head to : https://viashimo.itch.io/ld39-dead-in-the-water (I grabbed the embed link from the description but it isn't super obvious.)
I think this fitted the theme perfectly and obviously has some quite complex design which is quite a feat for 48 hours. I like that you've added instructions, I think they may benefit slightly from breaking them down a bit for the user. Fantastic effort nonetheless!
Nice work! The game moves really smoothly and I like that the camera rotates with you. The mini map is super useful and looks great too.
Great start there! great art. Hope to see you at the next LD
Loved the voiced effects. Those bullets sound like they REALLY hurt!
Great job on the audio, I wouldn't have thought it was your first time writing music! It's very fast paced and a good trainer for click accuracy!
I must caveat this with that I wasn't able to actually play as I am on Mac atm. However, I watched the video and it looks fantastic! I really like the sound effect and the effects on click. I imagine it feels quite satisfying pressing the particles too as the shake that occurs looks tuned just right. I'll have another go tomorrow when I have access to a windows OS.
An ominous setting indeed in this one. The lighting was spot on for a moon space station. Great job! It's definitely real tough to keep going through the whole 48 hours! Hope you stick at it and come back for LD 40.
Nice job on the artwork. I wouldn't have guessed you'd never made any before, fantastic work! Really like the music too. I'm thinking the main guy is gonna have a heart attack soon, guess one more red bull'll be ok...
Looks like a great start, a shame you were rough for day 2. Interested to see how this progresses after LD39. Hope you feel better.
As Lucky Deathers has said, the FTL vibe was strong and I loved it. A very ambitious game! I really enjoyed the ship building. I'd love to see how it moves along after LD as well.
This is great! I really love the look of the ants (those damn ants!) and the gun too. The shot flash is real slick too!
That flip is really something! Quite a tricky game, that's not a problem though, I just gotta git gud.
Really great concept! I'm real impressed that you managed to get co-op going given the time allotted, great job! That electricity effect is super cool too.
This took me back to the good ole text based days! Really like the balancing act, think I can win in a few more goes :)
Fantastic concept. My favourite were the voiced sound effects. 'YAH!', 'HOOOOOOOOOO' hahhaha they were brill!
I love the look of the sun, especially the glow! I'm impressed you got so much into the world in the time. Great job! Congrats on your first LD too :)
Just watching that bank tick up is 👌
Really enjoyed this! The way the controls are explained is really cool, especially the CTRL one! My fave tactic is building up a bit of speed then do the interstellar spin while shooting for the Death Pirouette
I love the interpretation of the theme! There's a great amount of depth here too with the difficulty settings. Lunatic was true hell hehehh
Very fun game! I love the way the instructions are presented and that glow on the orbs and beams is delicious!
Super fun smashing stuff! Got some lag with the web version, but still real fun.
very good looking game! When you hit something that screen shake is really satisfying! great job!
HAHAH this is hilarious! Great simple design and quite fun. Really love the rocket trail!
Fantastic look! I love the sassiness in the letters!

Power in Numbers by amras0000 2018-04-23T19:00:18Z ♥ 1
Really like this game and I think it'd be really good for getting folk to see the divisible patterns in certain numbers. A lot of content for a compo too so great job. Thanks for playing my game too :)
Puzzled and Dating a Monster by John Darrington 2018-04-23T18:48:46Z ♥ 1
Really great first jam! I thought I was a stud getting the first three right but it went downhill from there after I mentioned my raiding days in the depths of Molten Core! Great work and thanks for playing my game too :)

Star clicker by Blight Radiance 2018-04-23T18:03:12Z ♥ 1
Pretty satisfying little clicker. A thought I had was that it'd be cool if there was some bigger screen effect for when you're in the red/green etc. great work :D

Super solid mix of genres there they are truly incompatible. Great work! Top marks for theme attempt from me :)
TextUnkown's AdventureGrounds by HitchH1k3r 2018-04-23T17:58:15Z ♥ 1
2, 1 drop! One improvement would be to add in a military base. Maybe make the maps smaller so that you get to see other players before getting sniped from whoever knows where. VSS OP!
Great game! Loved the jibe ;)

Hey, chuck up a download link :)
SIMVASION by Anyonebacon 2018-04-23T17:52:33Z ♥ 1
Really nice hand drawn simple designs on the entities. I felt the movement of the aliens was quite quick but probably just personal taste. Great work!

Very interesting ideas that i'm sure will be great once fully implemented. A good start.
Gun Farmer by ludevum 2018-04-23T17:44:31Z ♥ 0
Nice combination and twist on a farming survival. I found the text was a little distorted but it's not a big deal given the limited time available. Great job :)
TSnake by Rudenko 2018-04-23T17:40:33Z ♥ 1
Fantastic take on snake! I think it's simple yet effective and therefore elegant. Top marks for theme!
Interaural Differences by paulturowski 2018-04-23T17:32:29Z ♥ 1
A great first shot at an LD! I was a little confused as to how to get through the door once it was opened but I think I just didn't solve the puzzle ;) See you next jam!
Cowboys vs Aliens by nidup 2018-04-23T17:27:27Z ♥ 2
Great job. The artwork is solid and the controls feel appropriate for the shooting mechanic.

A fun idea and definitely made more fun by adding in a second player. Nice work! PS Jean Luc Picard as Captain!

A great mix of genre's. I was a little confused about the controls at first but picked them up after a bit. Great job!
