LD46 — Keep it alive

Its Adventure by recursor 2020-04-21T22:11:42Z

Clever idea! But a bit too hard for my taste. I feel like "it" could jump higher. For example if you are against a block, you can't jump high enough. You have to get back a little to jump higher. Qnd when I tried to create a word with q in it, i died... But except this little things that could have made the game more fun to play, the idea is cool and I wish i could play it again with more polish! GG ;)

Bobbleheads want to dance by jk5000 2020-04-24T23:58:41Z

I think I got hypnotize by this game. I didn't know what was happening but I wanted to make thoses heads bobble! Very fun! GG!

Keep It Alive by danman9914 2020-04-24T19:15:12Z

Awesome game! Well done! I played it twice to see if I could chose not to give the heart at the end but it looks like you don't have the choice :( But I really loved it, everything is well made, sounds, visuals, gameplay, story! GG! <3

Crossing Animals by thomz12 2020-04-24T16:56:17Z

I really liked it! The visuals are cute, the idea is fun and fit the theme, the accident report is a very funny touch. I'm a bit sad there is no music but 48h is short ! Very fun game ! GG

ADRENA-LINE by managore 2020-04-24T21:10:04Z

Very fun a polished game! I really like playing it. My highscore in 18 but I feel like the result depends of the generated level. And I think the link with the theme could be more explicit. But as always, a very well made game! Great work! <3

Spooble: A Search Engine Story by allthebees 2020-04-24T21:06:47Z

Very smart game. Even with the simplicity of the interface, we go through different feeling during the gmae. Good job! Loved it <3

Untitled Plant Game by ponywolf 2020-04-24T20:29:00Z

Some little problems with the level design, I got stuck in some places but except that, it was awesome. I loved seeing the plant grow and eating more and more weird things! The final plant form is terrifying ! Awesome job <3 GG

Mind Defender by Laura del Pino 2020-04-24T17:51:08Z

Visuals and music are nice, I liked them! But I didn't really understand the difference between the different "tower" I was building and I got the "win" message before the last ennemies were defeated, i don't really know why. Exceot these little things I had fun playing it even if it could have been a little bit more challenging. GG <3

Tiny Fragments by Daniel Moreno 2020-04-21T21:58:25Z

This is very clever ! I managed to go to the end but some levels were challenging enough to make me scratch my head! I would have liked a pause button to let me think of a solution without dying again and again before I got it! But the game is excellent any way! Great work!

Blackbird by Rongo Matane 2020-04-24T20:49:30Z

Sweet and relaxing game! I really like it! Quite hard to make all the three birds grow but I liked the challenge! Well done !

Ember Online by Virtual Window 2020-04-24T18:49:51Z

Hi! It's a really lovely game! I didn't meet anyone while playing but I like the idea of keeping a fire alive together! I tried to explore a little bit and i found some lovely places. I just have a question (spoiler maybe) concerning the "bridge" to get to the small island. Why does it disappear everytime I try to cross it ? Do I need a 2nd player to keep it up or i am missing something ? Great game! <3

Tower Defence of the Heart by terry 2020-04-24T17:46:03Z

Very fun game! I managed to go to the level 10, i don't think I will be able to beat all of them but I had a lot of fun! Simple, fast paced, fun music, nice pixel art. GG <3

juxta.LINE by fiaKaiera 2020-04-24T18:18:13Z

That was awesome! My favorite so far! It's simple but very well done, addictive and very unique! I managed to beat it but it was definitly very challenging! Loved it! Great work! <3

Circus Daddy by PatteDeCanaard 2020-04-21T22:26:58Z

Excellent game! Fun and easy to play but still challenging! I really like it! Sometimes the baby didn't go where I thought it would but it made the whole thing funnier. Good job!

Savior by Ekin 2020-04-24T17:03:48Z

I liked the mood of this game, very calm and relaxing. Nice job on that. But I found the controls a bit weird, maybe it's intended but I had problems to navigate smoothly and it feels to me that it doesn't match the relaxing mood of the graphics and sounds.

School is Canceled by Nick Rasmussen 2020-04-21T21:42:08Z

Very cute and fun, but still challenging. Sometimes I could jump indefinitly but except that, it's a well made game ! Bravo!

Baby on board by steambrain 2020-04-25T00:27:02Z

That was a very fun but very hard game! I really liked the idea and have fun playing but i would have loved some easier levels to begin with. (but maybe I'm just bad haha)

Social Distancing For LadyBugs by mehrdadsh 2020-04-24T23:49:13Z

Simple but really well made game! Pretty addictive, I wanted to beat my highscore and that's always a good sign. I feel like the fly swatter's hitbox could be more forgiving and could have more feedback when you smash. But except these small things, I had fun playing it! Well done !

Keep the Heart Alive by QYOUK 2020-04-21T15:54:07Z

@wormholegames Oh... I didn't realize it was an installer, I updated the page with a single runtime executable. It'll be easier. Sorry for that... And thanks for the feedback!

Keep the Heart Alive by QYOUK 2020-04-24T16:30:56Z

@sheepolution Thanks for your feedback. I knew this would be a problem, that's why you're able to move the heart by shooting at it, but sometimes it is not enough, i'm sorry. I'll try to find a solution for a post-jam version.

@fabula-rasa Thanks for the kind words! I know the "virus" theme was not very original but I didn't get very inspired by the theme. I made the choice to have fun making the visuals and the music rather than a good theme haha. And sorry for your thumb.. I hesitated between different movement styles but I can understand how this one can be frustrating :/

And thanks everyone for the comments <3

Keep the Heart Alive by QYOUK 2020-04-24T18:20:03Z

@hamzeh I know this issue and I'm sorry for that. One way to go is to shoot at the heart so it go away from the virus, but that's clearly not a clean way to manage the issue. But I'm glad you had fun ! Thanks for the feedback!

SAVE THE DINOS! by marcusnystrand 2020-04-24T23:53:14Z

Challenging and nice looking game. I like the fact that the number of dinos is increasing so it let more room for error as the game becomes harder. Clever! Nice work!

Blóm by Miracle Tea Studios 2020-04-22T20:05:20Z

Lovely and relaxing game. I was not really sure of the effects of the cards I was playing, maybe some instructions would have helped ? But except that I had a nice time trying to keep the planet happy! Good work !

LD48 — Deeper and deeper

Mars Cave Explorer by OddballDave 2021-05-15T12:45:52Z

I really liked your game, the visuals and mood were very cool! The game idea is pretty simple but works very well with the theme. It's very hard to control correctly the ship, I don't know if it was intentionnal or not but I think it give the game a little bit of comedy, so it didn't frustrate me too much! Good work!

Deep Sea Whale Mechanic by Jiri_One 2021-05-15T12:04:16Z

Simple game idea but it works very well! The fact that the submarine is hard to control makes the combats really fun. The visuals may look minimalistic but you managed to set a cool mood for your game. Good job!

Rock Monster by Myko 2021-05-14T13:30:23Z

Fun and simple game, I really liked it. I really wanted to go deeper and deeper! The pixel art is nice and cute and all the different type of blocks are easy to spot. Music would have been a cool addition and the SFX are a little to loud especially when you have to hear them multiple times every seconds. Overall i had fun playing it! GG !

drillerROBOT by Yamzho 2021-05-15T11:48:00Z

The visuals of your game are very cool, and The tutorial was simple but well made! The idea of mixing a card game with a digging game is intersting but I feel like it doesn't really match, cause the controls of the digging are very fun and responsive and I want to go fast, but I have to stop every time I got a new card to read it. It's not that bad, that's mostly because I like to play these game quick but I wonder if there were a way to speed the understanding of the cards (icons maybe ?) But Overall it was very good! Goof job!

HyperJack by pkenney 2021-05-14T13:49:16Z

I really liked the fact to you took the 'dig down' genre and add a twist to it, that's clever! The pixel art is beautiful, the SFX fit the game very well, the weird controls are fun to use. I just wish the game was a little bit more difficult. But that's a very good game! Good job!

Wiki Vortex by impbox 2021-05-14T13:43:30Z

I don't feel like you invented something new, cause the game was already a thing just using the web browser, BUT it's a great idea to make an UI that allow you to explicit the rules and add some variations to the original game! So for that : Good Job !

Deep Sausage Madness by Ommadawn 2021-05-14T14:01:52Z

I couldn't tell if the 'art style' and music looked and sounded like this on purpose or not, but it does fit the game. I had a lot of fun playing it! Despite a simple base, I liked how you use the theme to go deeper and deeper into an absolut crazy dream where nothing makes any sense at the end! Good job!

Legendelver by DroidDare 2021-05-14T13:37:57Z

Making a card game always scared me cause it looks too difficult to do, even with more than 48h, so congrats for doing it, that's ambitious! About the game, I didn't really understand why it was so easy to skip fights and delve instead. It didn't seem to have a big impact if I did so, but maybe i should have played it longer? Other than that I really like the visuals, cards did what I expected them to do, and the 'text adventure UI' style was a nice touch! GG

Deep Blue by Jiri Hysek 2021-05-14T14:34:57Z

The visuals are stunning and the level design is pretty good! But the hitboxes are way to unforgiving and the game become frustrating really quickly. This is enforced by the fact that the controls, even if they're not bad, don't really fit the dodge/dash mechanics. So with some little changes, I think this game could be great, it has a lot of potential! I hope you'll keep working on it in the future! Good job!

The Spectrum Soup by SplitPainter 2021-05-14T13:55:00Z

Wow that's not what I expected, but your game does go deeper and deeper! I wouldn't say it was fun, but the game kept my interest for a while and I wanted to explore and see more of what you had to say! Visuals and sounds where perfect to set the mood, that was a great experience!

A Cat in the Aliens' Lair by Sheinxy 2021-05-15T12:21:45Z

I don't know it was what you wanted but I played it like a "trial&error" game instead of a true stealth game. Some ennemies can't be avoided if they see you, sometimes they even see you before you do and the fact that the levels are short was helping me to memorize what path to take after a few tries. So in the end I had a lot a fun playing it, the mood was cool, the pixel art is beautiful, good work!

Make A Wish by J0ye 2021-05-15T11:52:21Z

Great mood, and the visuals are pretty cool too! It took me a while to understand what the white line was but when I did, it made the game much easier to play, wich is cool! Cool game, good job!

Deirdre & Pedro by Frogravity 2021-05-15T11:38:41Z

Hi! Your game is really fun to play and clever, the idea is very cool! I was a little bit afraid about the visuals in the "intro scene", but in game it works well, the music and sounds are cool! I think the knock-back when you hit an obstacle is a bit too strong, it can make you touch an other obstacle so it's a little bit like a double punition... But I really liked that the two characters have different health bars, it force you to prioritize wich one to save or sacrifice when something is undodgeable! Very cool! Good job!

Captain Zapdash by Nazorus 2021-05-15T12:50:39Z

The only thing that bothered me a bit was the SFX, they were maybe too loud and felt weird when you zap quickly but other than that the game was solid! Controls felt nice and responsive, the game idea is simple but work very well and the visuals are really cool! Good job!

DICE - Demolition Into the Core of the Earth by Ghuyajil 2021-05-14T14:17:00Z

The game looks nice, i definitely wanted to go deeper and deeper to explore the cave you created but I found the game a little bit to frustrating. The ammos reloading really slowly, the ennemies taking multiple explosions to kill, the really slow speed of the ship... It seems that you spent lots of time creating a mysterious world to explore, but didn't let the player the possibility to explore it. Maybe with some little adjustments, the game could really be a call to adventure ! Anyway, congrats for the hard job!

ROOTS by TheGreenWorm 2021-05-14T14:07:38Z

Probably one of the best entry I've played yet! This was a delightful experience and I'm still amazed by the work you put into this game in this short amount of time! Visuals and sounds where perfect for this chill mood, the fact that it works like a 'rogue-lite' is very clever and make the game really addictive! I don't think i see anything you could improve, this little game is a gem! great job!

DangerCo by Salepate 2021-05-14T14:25:03Z

The controls of the game were a bit weird, the character is a bit to 'floaty', and I think it doesn't really match the main gameplay of dodging ennemies and dynamites. But other than that I like the graphics, the fact that there are different 'biomes' is cool, and the randomness of the path make it fun to replay. A music would have been cool but in the end the game is pretty cool to play! Good job!

The Key by Zohar 2021-05-15T12:31:55Z

The visuals, especially the backgrounds are cool but a little bit hard to look at for too long, but I guess it's on purpose, so the stars and keys are harder to find! The game is pretty simple but the 'story' behind it is clever and well put. Good job!

DeepTris by hilkojj 2021-05-15T12:13:43Z

Very fun game! Tetris is such a classic that it can be hard to innovate with it, but you did it! It looks like tetris, it feels like tetris, but if you think like you're playing tetris you'll lose very quick! Very good work!

Cosp by Pavel Popov 2021-05-15T12:40:28Z

It was a bit complicated to understand what was going on and what I was supposed to do, maybe a short tutorial would make the game clearer. But the visuals were cool, a nice ambient music would have been very cool with this slow moody game. Good work!
