Fantastic Ludum Dare theme generator by tinyworlds 2014-12-12T19:17:00

Uh.
Well, is it a game? Does this fits the theme really? Don't know..
You should have wrote more theme, since there's like, just this in your game.. It's just always the same themes popping which makes it not really fun. Too bad cause the idea is funny.
It could have been cool if it was always a new theme for super long and it feels infinite (we'd stop playing before having 2 times the same theme)

Although, there's some good jokes ("I'm in", lol), but if you tell me "I'm in" 6 times, I won't laugh at the 6th time.

The thing in itself feels nice (I like the comments popping. Fun.), but it's not interactive so much (would need more stuff than just the basic generator) but it just, could have been way better, and.. does it fit the theme anyway? Aint sure.

Lunch Money by drstik 2014-12-12T14:55:00

Fun game!
Sometime the bad guys combo me and I die super quickly, that's annoying.
Else the game is good with what it wants to do.
Not inovative so much but well done, fun.

Punch Squad by Sos 2014-12-08T12:51:00

Fun! It's really good, considering the fact that you did it in 10 hours! :)
Would have love to see it with a bit more content^^
music is nice also.
Maybe the final round gives too much money, successing the game seems a bit random because of this, but winning is not realy the point of the game I guess, so that's fine.

(you should fix your web link problem -seem pretty, don't have the time to download now but I'll rate it someday)

SUPER FUN FAMILY PRIMETIME TELEVISION SIMULATOR by Random Seed Games 2014-12-12T16:35:00

I got 260.
That game is fun!
I like the distracted mechanics. It's annoying when the distracted guy like the program, but really useful when it's boring program.
Like, mom was distracted while there was football on tv and then all the other got distracted for Mom TV :D
Really nice idea.

It doesnt feel so intuitive that you have to touch the +/- buttons to change the channel (I first tried with number but it seems it was always the same channel)

It's cool, there's lot of good stuff in this. Good you didn't limited your game to the concept and try to put some "gameplay" in it with score and everything.

To Continue by raincole 2014-12-11T08:51:00

15 mins to go really? Ahah, took me almost an hour!(played the compo version)
It's so difficult sometime, specially first phase I think (which is bad, cause it makes the goal less clear.)
I love how you got the theme. This is really interesting. The gameplay is really cool, it feels fun and the idea is so clever...

Good use of audio feedbacks too, that was important and you did it super well!!
It looks really cool also. Simple and clear for the player, but still coherent with the story. Good!
I love it really! :)

OMNI by Noah Ratcliff 2014-12-09T22:36:00

Oh my god! Best entry I played so far!
The concept is great and fit the theme super good (+ with the ending it's perfect)
Music was super fun too, and the game is fun really
Also, making sure the player knows he can shoot at the begining was a good/clever detail, surprised to see this on a jam, good work with that

Although there's some less good stuff, like, this bug: sometime the guy just jump when you release space, but sometime the guy jump when you press it. Made me die several times, wasnt so bad but frustrating a bit.
Oh and the boss man, a bit too hard I would say, or, not really hard but the first phase is way too long, and since the other part is die and retry more or less, it's frustrating.
But anyway the ending worth it!
Oh and I would have like some audio feedbacks with the boss (like when he use the beam attack, or stuff like this)

That was super cool, thanks for making this!! :)

Vibrant City by Anshul Goyal 2014-12-08T20:47:00

I can't play the web version; maybe it's my slow connexion? I'll try later ;)

One Does Not Simply Walk Into More Doors by Wertle 2014-12-08T20:26:00

Fun! My best score was 31! Might play it again after I rated some other games :)

Having to go through the door at least once to get the game started is good, it makes the player understand how the doors work, but it's a bit annoying that you have to do it again everytime after you died.

It wasnt so much intuitive what the guys with the lamp will do if I touched them also, and didn't want to try because it's long to re-do a party (because of what I just said), but anyway I had to touch them at some point^^

Ps: Face's experessions are wertle so much ._. Makes the game even funnier! I specially like the "worried ghost" when you're close to be eaten, he looks so much affraid of dying D:

Ps bis: Kazooooo musiiic :D

Tiny Bear Adventure by Mr.Greenhat 2014-12-10T12:22:00

Wasn't expecting it to be that good! It would need like, clear objectives, but it's cool Really.
Mechanics are really cool, for me, it feels like it's a mix between god game and card game :D
Really enjoyed it, clever use of the theme I would say :)

Super Death Grid Of Death (with deadly beats) by Stending 2014-12-14T03:18:00

Just the best use the them I've seen so far. Not best interpretation I would say, but I've seen nobody who used it as good as you.
how you used the theme for your menu is just too cool guys. Great job on that. Most people are just taking the theme as something they have to work with, you used it as an ispiration to make the game even better and that's great.

The game itself is supercool, reactive, nervous, super hard in a cool way. I love it.

Maybe a bit too much "die and retry", for 2 reasons:
The player don't know the mechanics at first, so basically everytime he retries, if there's something new happening he has to die and.. retry. And it can feel unfair so that can be a bad thing.
The game is clearly made to make the player learn the patterns as he plays. (that's kind of good, specially here for the jam. For a real game maybe it would have been cool to have shorter levels that asks more skill than memory).

Mh, even if I like the difficulty of the game, maybe a health system would have been cool?
I think it wouldnt affect the experience for the player, and would have make it easier to reach the end? (and it would fix the "new mechanic" problem I talked about earlier)

I've seen a little bug: I moved between two places while being "attacked" by two "beats" at those places, and the game considered I was nowhere so I didnt die while I should have.

Is this your first musical game guys? Feel really pro.

[didn't finish it, and as I've seen the video, I think I will never even with years of training so I'm gonna talk about what I saw on the video]
I see your level design is even cooler after what I've played, there's some really clever things about "making the player understand where he has to go if he doesnt want to die", really cool.
Also, I see there's some kind of humor on some patterns (the smiley, and that moment when everything on the screen is filled and the last block start to get a thing on it.. Well, 2:10 on the video if you don't understand what I talk about.) and what I like about that humor is that it is based only on the gameplay. I'm really interrested with those things and those were clever.


It would not be good for a first level if it was a real game, and I'd assume that's why it's hard. But omg this on a game jam!? You're insane guys.
GREAT GAME!!
Would love to see the hardcore mode =(

Guys who made Bit Trip series can be affraid that you exist. If you make this on a jam, I assume you can do some crazy things with long term projects.
Do you have/use twitter? Should give us a link, if yes (you should have done it within the game! but do it here on your presentation! and twitter), for both your twitter accounts! If you have bigger projects I'd like to know about it! :P (And I might not be the only one)

Oh and I think I just saw you live in france on your LD profile?
Well..
Bravo!!
Vraiment, un des meilleurs jeux de cette ludum dare! Le contenu est juste fou, je sais pas comment t'as pu faire ça en si peu de temps..

...<3

Venus: The last defenders by mnill 2014-12-26T22:59:00

making an online/coop game for a jam is really challenging.
Cool that you let us play with ourseves.

Kind of hard to rate just the inovation..
Is there any controls I'm missing or is it like, something like tower defence, just placing the guys?
cause I never succeed on healing anyone with the medic.. You should describe it better, and put some HUD maybe. ^_^
Cool prototype though.

Avoid Rage by jackrugile 2014-12-15T19:30:00

Great! I like this.
Is everything random? It never start the same

I think it would feel better if there was a real connexion between music and what we see on screen, but.. you know, that's a compo! And music is cool though

Great job on this one, lot of cool details like destoying the cube when they're gone, and on the way you die in the game.

Good job

Spiral Wings by Joe Williamson 2014-12-09T20:57:00

Wow, great graphics here!

I like the gameplay although it's really simple, it feels nice! (I think it's too bad that the game's over so quickly though, I would have enjoyed flying a bit more, even with no objective^^)

Music is cool too.
Theme is well respected, it's nice.

Great! :)

Snow to Basic by NicePenguins 2014-12-26T20:15:00

Verry cool!
Good interpretation of the theme.
This game is kinda better than the Torture scene from GTA5 =o)

Although when the guys working for the boss are talking, it's a bit confusing, maybe you could have add the names before the sentences (like you did when the snowman speak.), or maybe a little picture of their faces?

It's really fun ^_^

0000 : Press Z by alvarop 2014-12-12T00:30:00

Really good!
The most fun game I played from this LD I think! :)
It feels really nice to play, nervous and fluid gameplay. The core gameplay feels finished, great for a jam game!

I think for most level there's a really nice lvl design, even if some could be a bit better (I think some are too difficult, too frustrating, with spikes sometimes for exemple), maybe it could be actually more simple lvl design, it would be fine. The room with lot of moving platform confused me a lot, there wasnt any enemy and I kept dying because of not having a lot of visibility(too many things on screen).
It's good that you added the thing with "the player moving backwards when you shoot". That's not really often seen in games and I love when there's something like this and when it's used in good way :)

The art is quite simple, but super cool. It feels good. Same for sound effects.

Gonna go with some real negative points:
Respawning on a screen the player already finished is bad. Really bad. Almost got me not finishing it. Specially because the player does not always spawn in front of the doors.
The point is, if I die, I want to retry super quickly (Super meat boy effect :D ), and If it makes me go in a room I've done already, I will want to quit that room super quickly, and not having to reach an enemy to kill myself (which is 50% of your gameplay at the end of the game.). It's not interesting for the player.

Hum, About the last level: YOU LIAR O_O
Seriously, you make the player expect things with that level, you put a crown above it. When I play I feel like "Omg the last lvl!! I have to unlock it! it's gonna be so awesome" and there's nothing. You're lying to your player. That is super nasty .-.


Also, I'm not sure you're really respecting the theme, cause it still feels like it's changing screen everytime you go through a door..


But anyway, I said lot of negative points here because I think that's what helps, you know what is good about your game. I loved this really, one of the best game of LD I played so far. And the funniest to play.

Clouded Day by valid4life 2014-12-11T14:57:00

Yea, like the other, broke the game with the box. Real problem that would need to be fixed (even during the jams so you wont lost votes like this)

Replayed it and finished it.
As some other said, being in a cloud but physically touching the ground, pushing boxes and jump feels weird really.
Graphics are kinda nice though! :)

(Oh and.. Did you forgot what the theme was..?)
Overall it was quite fun, but there's some issue that would need to be fixed.

VludumdaRe - Blobby Volley VR or something like that. by Slin 2014-12-12T16:42:00

Wow, seem pretty impressive. Can't play it as I Don't have Oculus for now (but soon I guess).
Althrough, not sure this fit the theme really..

INTERSECTION by OfficialDingbat 2014-12-13T18:14:00

I aint sure about your objective too. It's weird because there's no time limit, so no final score, and anyway do we care about the vehicules being in the middle?
But anyway I took it as it was a sandbox kind of game, I just played with the tool basically.
And it's fun I have to say.

I feel super weird about how you took the game.
I've seen this kind of game with a fix 2D screen a lot of time, but here you made it in 3D.
So.. The thing is, instead of taking a multi screen kind of game and make it one screen, you more or less did the opposite. (well it depends on what you call "one screen" but I don't feel like your game is on "one screen", it's on one scene, but it's not a fixed camera, like in for exemple. Maybe it should have been a fixed camera angle to be more coherent with the theme?)

Nice experimentation here. I like it.

Man on the Field by Double Zero One Zero 2014-12-08T21:28:00

Great! But hard!

Well actually I don't know, I had real problems because of being an azerty user I think. The ZXCV keys might not be the best ones.

But I managed to go to the day 5 and had fun!
Reminds a lot of Paper please, which is still good.
Music was supercool, I dunno if it's adapted to the theme of your game but it's super nice :)
graphics are nice, too.
I dunno about the shut up mechanic, doesnt seems meaningful enough to me, so I barely used it, prefer heal the soldier than losing time look at his health

Theme of the jam was respected but nothing more really I think.

Oh and, the message that says to put the cursor over the wound when the player doesnt understand is not appearing long enough, it took me time to success reading it (I'm not english so It takes me a couple of seconds to concentrate on the words)

It was fun anyway! Congratulation for doing this!

Snowman Drop by Viza 2014-12-13T22:22:00

Pretty impressive considering the conditions in which it has been made! Congrats!

That being said, I don't know if you fit the theme so much, your screen is moving, the the entire game is not visible everytime, so it's not really on one screen I guess.

i by VLTRAUIOLET 2014-12-09T10:08:00

Wow, graphics are lovely!

But it's so hard!
Played it for like 30 minutes, almost rage quitted lot of times, but I've just beaten the 4th round and died, I guess I won't success in going further than that.

Maybe it would be cool to allow 2 dashes instead of 1 + 1 at each enemy killed? Or at least something that's makes you not dying if you missed an enemy? It was very frustrating! But at the same time I really liked that!
Learning how to kill the differents ennemies is really cool, but it takes so much time because you start from the beggining everytime..
The audio is cool also! Goes well with your graphics.
It fits the ludum dare's theme fine, but nothing more.

Really relaxing to watch, and frustrating (but still fun!) to play at the same time. Ahah, don't know what to think!!
Great game! :)

Crappy 3D Model House by InfiniteSoftCoal 2014-12-13T20:07:00

Well. That was a big house isn't it?! :p
There's an incredible amount of content, for a jam. But unnecessary really.
Maybe you should have done more little house and work more on other things?

About the gameplay:
Movement of the player feels weird. Like if he's slipping.
Too bad the programming of the "find the object thing" doesnt work really

The trick to fit the theme is a bit easy, too, I think.

See you with better skills at next game jams I hope! :)
Never get discouraged! Game jams are hards! :P

Crush Quest by krakenRose 2014-12-26T23:15:00

Nice art and music!
I liked the mechanic of the "if you hold space you're moving faster and attacking" thing, you used it well with the rooms where there's a lot of boxes.

But I'm not sure about the die and retry stuff, well could be fun and there's some great ideas (like the room where there is 2 keys and if you found one and think "well I have one key I can run now", you're gonna die. this is great), but the game is really too slow for this. If we could just run and get the keys that would be fine, but we're always waiting for the screen to move..

Oh and talking of the screen...
Yes, you COULD say that there's just one screen and it's moving.. But.. for me it doesnt fit the theme well.
Because we can't always see the entire game on the screen..
But there's just one level, I agree on that :p

nice jam. Hope you had fun in family :D

Shellac's dream on an entire screen by Team Klappermann 2014-12-13T23:30:00

Wow guys! I think it might be my favorite for this jam!!!

So creative!
And fun!
And crazy!
Omg!

:)

Reminds me of monty pythons flying circus so much! :')

For a moment I felt like it was not fitting the theme so much, but we can consider that the planet is rotating and the screen not moving, I guess.

Anyway I love it, made my day, gonna share it with friends!

Oi! Menu!? by davient 2014-12-09T20:45:00

Good concept,
couldn't figure out how to beat it really (and I tried so hard.. I must be too stupid for this game. Or this game may be too stupid for me.. What do you think?._. )

Good approach with the theme, I liked this. I like making the player guess what this is and how he should play. (even though it seems I didnt get everything x3 )

Alien Invasion by Majoolwip 2014-12-08T18:49:00

It's nice!
I couldn't defeat the boss because the game is a bit hard (but I liked that) and mostly because I didn't know really if I was hurting him, there's no visual feedback or health bar, so I didn't know and quit after dying several times against him.
Audio is simple but nice and fits the game.
Maybe it could be more in relation with the theme? The options are in the game, and the scrolling is coming back when the player die, so the screen doesnt change, but.. Well it's hard to be really in the theme with this one.^^

Had fun anyway :)

Advanced Mayonaise by ZTO22 2014-12-13T19:03:00

Uh.
using mouse direction has been hard for you it seems..

Nothing really interesting to do in the game from what I see, could have been way more inovative. A game need to be more meaningful.

But it's playable, more or less, and on one screen. So at least your in the theme.

Colour Blaster by TimtheBo 2014-12-10T18:17:00

Yep, Applet doesnt work for me, and .jar is giving me a black screen with no character when I click play.=/
(but the menu was a still a good experience I guess :D )
Hope you'll find a way to make it playable for a lot of people..

RotaMaze by Yorgo 2014-12-08T19:56:00

Hey!
It's good to ear that you learned stuff and had fun doing this jam!
it's a shame that you didn't have the time to do more, cause it had a bit of potential, with some level design it could have been fun really ^^

I liked the idea that everything that is used by the game is on-screen even if it's not used, it fits the theme quite well I think. (Although it could have been cool if the object were just moving to make the level, like disapearing from the right to go in the level. I think I'm not clear when I say that.. Well. )

Oh and just sayin: Shiftleft and ShiftRight is so much not intuitive, and the game doesnt say anything about it!! Be careful with that next time :)

aMAZEing by mjp456789 2014-12-26T20:48:00

Your mechanic and concept are fine, but you need to make them more meaningful.
On the third lvl you tried to put something that look like a labyrinth, but it doesnt work because the wrong ways are really obvious, since we can see the whole screen. The thing you could have done to make this more meaningful would be to put everything in the dark, and a light on the ball, in that way the player will not know what's next (and your game would still be on one screen.. You know, the theme.)

talking about the theme, I'm not sure I'm super good with how you took it. There's several scrrens on your game, so that's kinda bad.
Missed some audio effects/music. specially since it's a jam entry, you could have used something made by someone.

Oh and the game over art made me think of sunset overdrive logo! Ahah

Keep Gamers Alive by cabul 2014-12-26T22:50:00

A nice take on the theme.

Hm, had a lot lot lot of crashes..

the words we have to use are really not intuitive I think, had to check your description. You should give clues.. (I tried drink soda but not coke.. coke is not written anywhere so..)

But it's nice to try something like this on a jam, that's super cool!
can't finish it with all those crashed though..

7 Days of War by error031 2014-12-09T10:43:00

Fine game,
Mechanics could have been more meaningful, you mostly don't have the time to see the bombs coming so it makes you die dumbly, for that reason I couldnt beat the game;

going with family doesnt seem useful (except for being safe but you have to pick up the boxes so..), maybe there could be a thing like, you need to bring the food to the family

But it's cool anyway, I kinda like the concept and the theme, it need to be inproved but enjoyed it. :)

Standoff by nottoscalestudio 2014-12-26T21:36:00

Nice

is it normal that the ball bounce when it touches the border of the screen? Not intuitive and feel like it's wrong.

In the 2 first levels we can just shoot the guy, with, on the 2nd level the possibility of killing him with a bounce, so that's good
The third level, you have to make the ball bounce. Good.
I'm not sure about the fouth level, it's all about accurate but your shooting system is not accurate at all, so it feels like "I'm losing because of the game". If you wanna go that way, maybe you should add like,a dotted line to make the player see where the ball is gonna go.
I didnt like the last level. I think I would have prefer something complex with lot of bounces.


Maybe it would have been good that the player keep his position when he fails. In that way the player could be like "well, a little more on the left this time".

I like the animation when the guy dies too!

ReTroBot Remake by LetzHavePhun by LetzHavePhun 2014-12-13T18:37:00

I find interesting the fact that you remade an ++old game.

It need to be superimproved, there's no winning message (except when you kill youself ._. probably a metaphore about life..); AI needs to be improved a lot because right now it's just super easy (in both the games)
What about the AI can't fall by itself (cause it's clever) and you have to push it with traps or stuff like that? Or if they touch you but are in front of a hole, you can push them?
Would be more meaningful gameplay I think.

I like the fact that it looks like a board game too.

Title Screen by regisRquoi 2014-12-13T13:29:00

@BoxedMeatRevolution: Oops! Yeah a little bug here! Sorry for that! (Although as you say it could be cool to have separate control ahah, like the idea)

Thanks for all the feedbacks guys. Really useful(As I knew most of them already, it makes it clear). Might make an improved version someday. Don't have the time right now. ^^

Make a Snowman by Istani 2014-12-11T14:28:00

That was not really inovative, basically just a sokoban clone. I guess/hope it made you learn lot of stuff though, so that's cool for you really, but playing a clone is never interesting so much!
Next game jam, try to add something from you! an unusual level design or game mechanic that we don't expect to see in a sokoban type of game!

Too bad, 'cause I like the idea of making a sokoban-like for this game jam, it goes well with the theme! (and I don't think I've seen any other?)

(Oh and the fact that we make a snowman with the sokoban mechanic is kinda fun ;) )

Snake Runner by istlemin 2014-12-12T15:55:00

I love the concept, really really a lot. This is innovative. Great.

But yea. Lot of things that are breaking the fun by making the game so much harder than what it's supposed to be.

When the "character" does the "slide" (well, let say it like this: Down arrow.), it should keep doing it while the player didn't released the arrow. sometimes it makes it so hard and not understandable..

Sometime the blocs are not placed well And you're forced to die. .-.

Maybe there should be more than one thing to pick at the time? Would make this easier? (I don't know, but that's something to test)

Also, Maybe, since you was inspired by snake, it would have been cool to have that thing, like, when you touch the bottom of the screen, you apear on the top of screen, same for right and left. Like in pacman too.
Cause that's like, 60% of my deaths. and it's VERY frustrating.


I really think you should do a real version of this. I would play it.

If ever you create something better with that concept, could you like, send a message on twitter or something? I'm really interrested by something like this that would be really playable! :)

FEMA Break by Selzier 2014-12-11T21:57:00

Finished your game,
As the first comment said. The thing with "having to press space a lot of time" makes the player not reading the text, so that's kind of bad.

Otherwise, pretty impressive work on the 3D for a game jam! There's some funny things.
(having a naked woman in your game is a nice try to get some votes, but you wont get me! è_é :P )

Time to safe love! by miascugh 2014-12-09T11:50:00

Really slow on my computer :/
But I played and finished it!
And it's good!
I love the idea!
could have been more used with a bit better level design I think, but in 72 hours it was difficult to make something better :)
It kind of reminds me a thing in the game Taz on PS2; well I don't remember so much what it was, but there was screen like those, ahah :p

It's a clever interpretation of the theme, even though technically it's "an entire game on a group of screen", ahah!
I love how the guy look, and how he falls and how he protect love and have cofee and omg this concept is fun! ;D

Egg-Dodge by obberton13 2014-12-11T14:44:00

That's nice actually!

I'm not sure about changing the speed of the player during the game, though. Well, it's interesting, really, but not like this. Maybe it could be cool to something apearing on the screen, like Bonus pills that makes you go faster, and also the reverse? Would make that mechanic way more interesting I think! What you think? :)

Anyway it's quite good for something made really quickly (I'm in college too right now, I know what it is :p ), I hope you learned a lot and enjoyed it :)

Orange Juice by Enchae 2014-12-12T23:35:00

Really dynamic.
Too bad I got stuck at every try :/ A bit buggy
But the idea is really nice! I think you're not in the theme though..
Fun to play, liked it overall :)

It's always there by Mr MadCat 2014-12-11T18:39:00

Great efforts with music on this one. I would not say the music itself is great, but you make a great use of it! (which is quite better than just having a cool music and do nothing with it).

It's always there by Mr MadCat 2014-12-11T18:44:00

(raaahg, half of my comment has gone! Let's do this again)

I think you did something wrong with the theme. Well, the Idea is cool, but the resizing of the image is completely looking bad, and it's not good for your game. Theme is supposed to help your game, not the opposite! Anyway, I still felt like the game was changing the screen everytime I go through a door.. Maybe you would have need a transition effect between two rooms?

Good story telling also, for a game jam it's pretty cool! :)

TITLE by Metamorphosis Games 2014-12-11T08:53:00

Not finished it seems, but theme is well respected I would say (would need a NES gun support =P )

Screencap'd by Avant-Marde 2014-12-11T15:24:00

Wow! Why is this not havinng more votes!
Really like it!

There's some good level and game design here. Really liked how the mechanics are coming one by one really slowly. The cage idea is awesome!

Graphics and sounds are great too!

Maybe rotating the scene could have visually rotated the tv screen too? Did you try and it wasn't loonking good maybe? Would have been a tiny bit more coherent eventually. But that's game jam, polishing is often not there!

Good job on this!

BindingOfIsaacTypeThing by benjim 2014-12-11T15:08:00

Nice Idea!
This is great interpretation of the theme, one of the best I've seen so far!

Although it's a bit frustrating for some shitty reason I guess.
Maybe you should have give the player some health?
And also, right now killing the ennemies is an option, too bad. Locking the rooms while the player don't kill the ennemies would have been more interesting I think (harder but it would be fine with some health!)

appart from that, it's good lvl design I think, with a great idea that fits the theme so well!
Great surprise!

ps: what the hell does it have to do with binding of isaac? :D

Swing Slash Slice by Jakub Koziol 2015-04-22T22:10:00

Aaaaaaw, I feel like your game had so much potential and now it's just too hard for stupiiid reasooons D:
It's still fun though !

Here's my (useful, I hope ?) feedbacks, in random order:

First thing first, The background. Why is it so uniform ? It feels like you're not moving at all ! It took my a while to realize I was actually doing something with the arrow keys. At the beggining it's just your cube and this uniform background, there's no enemies. You can't really know if you're moving really.

The camera unzooming when you're moving: Great idea, works just fine ! (maybe it could unzoom a bit more? I dunno. :) )

Because of the enemies following you only if you're near of them, sometimes I was just like, looking for them, and it felt broken, like : "there's no enemies left, what the fuck ?!"

If the enemy is already looking at you before you gets near, it's almost impossible to avoid him. Feels unfair.

The "screenshaking effect" (I guess?) when you attack kinda feels weird, I was thinking it was slowing/stopping me to attack.

Visual feedbacks are great in general. Great work on those :)

Oh and also there a bug sometimes, and the game doesnt stop when you die. Frustrating 'cause it feels like you didn't die, but you did. But it's jam anyway.

Too bad there's no sounds // music. At least for audio feedbacks. It would add a lot to the feeling of your game :/

The difficulty curve feels super nice. It's super hard at the beggining (because of some stuff I may have said earlier), but I made my way to the 8th wave :)
It feels super good to learn the new paterns. Makes the player feel like he learned by himself and stuff.



Anyway this was fun to play really. By the way I wanna say that your stream seemed really cool. Couldn't be there the whole time but I think you are good at streaming dev' :)

Great job :)

Counterspell by Fanaen 2015-04-22T23:21:00

mh, interresting.
Would have been cool to be able to move with up and down (rather than enter / back )
seems like there's no difficulty curve? Or maybe it gets difficult verry verry slowly? Anyway, once you understand how the game works, nothing happens really, too bad.

Nice game idea though.

Super Team by Togimaro 2017-12-06T17:56:42Z

Hilarious and Graphics are great

The more hair you have... by Naca 2017-12-06T16:05:12Z

Good take on the theme. It's nice to see that in a LD Game.

The art is really cool, the sound they make is too. Maybe it's a bit too slow to grow for someone who's not convinced by your message at the beggining to convince them...

The end message is not even needed I guess, it's clearly understandable haha !

Sending love toward your direction !! =)

The more hair you have... by Naca 2017-12-11T17:42:02Z

@naca tried to find you on twitter but didn't succeeded, I dunno if you have one but i'd be glad to see your next projects =)

TYPPOS by Tymus 2017-12-06T15:47:03Z

I love the idea haha ! The fact that as long as the letters are here, the word is validated is weird because it fits the theme less that way; but otherwise it'd be unplayable.

The graph and sounds rock. Good job' =)

Samurai Shaver by DDRKirbyISQ 2017-12-18T15:24:23Z

This is so cool ! It's so funny ! I played it in my school and people in the amphitheater were yelling at me for cutting of the skin of the characters. It's a super cool game ! congrats ! Nice to see people making several game, I do that all the time in game jams ! =) =)

No Hotdog For Naked Man by dx0ne 2017-12-09T12:13:42Z

Too bad it's unfinished, looks promissing ! the physics is funny, i love games based on ragdolled characters. =)

the idea how having things stuck on you is good for the theme, too bad there's nothing to make it worse !

good luck with your next projects =)

LORD BASKETBALL by designernap 2017-12-18T16:07:03Z

The phrases that appears when you fails are good, there's lot of them and it makes failure not frustrating. You have a huge perspective problem I think. It took me long to notice that when I throw my ballon too far away, it's hitting the goal and going back to me. The camera is like, 90° rotated from the goal and it make the thing a bit unclear for the player ! =)

Salty Business by drtizzle 2017-12-06T17:52:54Z

Great graphics. It's pretty impressive. The game makes me think of another game: "soul searching", you should check it out : https://kayabros.itch.io/ss

Too bad the gameplay is not that interresting though, it seems there's just one item to find that can you can sell for way more than what you bought. Also the boat is kinda slow and there's not much to do while traveling from an island to another, appart from enjoying the nice music and awesome art. ^_^

Pretty nice game overall, keep the good work !!

PinkBalloon by Ascension 2017-12-05T15:46:41Z

The idea is really good : It feels like a juggling game and i've never seen something like that, it's clever.

But there's a few design problem, especially with difficulty: it's actually really difficult to get to the part where it becomes interresting (the "juggling part"), I'm dying before it happens.

It fits the theme really good though. Maybe you should update it with an easier difficulty !!

I'm looking forward to play your next games !

Pas si vite by lepatryckduffy 2017-12-07T23:10:49Z

Nice concept, it would have been nice to have a 2 players mod to really know if the concept is well executed, as the AI is rally easy to kill (haha, it's rare to see a "too easy game" during ludum dare, though !) Or maybe just having a normal enemy for the AI, while the player has all the drawbacks you took from the theme.

Keep the good work, mate ;)

Cybercage Battleground by makiki99 2017-12-18T15:30:33Z

The controls are pretty cools. Nice to see a pico8 game ! I'm not sure how it fits the theme ? Seems like I'd want to have more amunition ! okay, they are weaker when I have more amo, but most of the time, I have no amo at all or almost :I I survived for 150-ish seconds if that's useful for you =)

the game feel is super good, the game alternates between avoiding stuff and shooting and that feels nice.

Potion Commotion by boaheck-artgent 2017-12-07T00:36:28Z

The art style is really nice ! I love it !

Too bad there's some level design issues that makes platforming hard. (But 3D games are hard to make, it's already super impressive in 72 hours.) music is pretty good too.

I would have loved the sheeps to be used more'cause they're really fun to jump on =)

Quadrilateral Damage by TheMadPangolin 2017-12-06T20:46:14Z

Wow, this is incredibly fun. There's lots of clever things in term of Game Design. I loved the "blue circle" projectile. Sometimes (when you have to much amunition on you) it's a really bad thing that it's here, because you only shoot small projectiles as you get everything you throw back on you. And sometime it's super positive to see it because you can shoot big projectiles as you have no amunition and get back your big projectiles. Love this. This is genius and elegant. It doesnt add much to your mechanics but a lot of depth to the gameplay. Having the possibility not to take the bonuses right away is quite a good idea as well. (died that way, didnt want to take nor the life /superpower I had because i wanted to keep them for the boss. Died at 60 000 points.)

The only bad points are the lack of epic music and some ergonomics problems: some stuff are a bit unclear on the screen, such as the enemy spawn: it looks good but you don't really know where the player is, sometime you shoot an enemy but he's not spawned yet, he's on another z-axis and it's confusing.

But it's pretty impressive that you have a mostly clear and not confusing gameplay,considering what the gameplay is.

Great job, great game. Will play again and link to my friends.

Quadrilateral Damage by TheMadPangolin 2017-12-06T21:12:06Z

@TheMadPangolin: don't hesitate to tag me (here if it's soon, or on twitter if it's later) when you'll post the post-jam version, i'm excited about it. You can also send a message on twitter if you want more feedback before releasing the post-jam game; I really loved it. :)

Tony Hawk's Hatchback Stunt Simulator: Ghost Protocol by Eli Delventhal 2017-12-05T22:22:23Z

This is truely amazing. Reminds me of some works from Sos. Also reminds me of this game : http://sandwichpuissant.net/voiture/

It's awesome. It feels a bit weird that the car stop directly when you stop driving.

I loved it.

Mister Maître by FerNandXor 2017-12-15T00:10:49Z

I tried a lot to take looots of glasses at the same time, but it was too risky. my best was 4 glasses at once. It's a really nice concept. I love games based on physics. I love how the guy is just walking backwards to gets the other glasses ! it's funny !

Get all the Wood by GameDevZach 2017-12-15T00:04:23Z

it's really pleasant to wonder in the world you ceated, too bad there's no progression when you collect wood. =)

Spin Attack by ditzel 2017-12-06T23:21:00Z

It's a nice game. The idea is good. I feel weird about the third level (i think? The first one with the books). It's super hard and it gets easier after that ! '-' I'm not sure it fits the theme that well: for most levels, the more objects you have the better it is cause it's easier to climb that way. But some levels use this to fit the theme too (the more objects you have, the easier it is to make them fall and loose)

good effort with the music, too, it can gets annoying but i'm glad it's there. I wish there was some changes over the levels.

Also the number of levels is pretty impressive !

Congrats for making the game anyway !! =)

Deadly Snowman by PapyKent 2017-12-15T00:15:54Z

Super nice game, relevant to the theme. I like how at first you want to make the ball grow but it's not rally a goood idea at the end.

I finished 21 seconds. The part where you can "fly" is super nice in term of gamefeel, too !

Quantum's Rick by cortexdeveloper 2017-12-07T20:05:13Z

I like fan-games. It's nice to see one. Difficulty feels a bit weird as it gets harder and harder when you get it wrong. And if you get it right at your first try, super easy to finish. But it does fit the theme more than most games. the art rocks !

Gina's Bed & Breakfast by CameronJSamuels 2017-12-05T23:40:37Z

Fun fact : I made my first bitsy game during ludum dare, but for another game jam (happening in the same time as Ludum dare)

Your game is good, there's some clever uses of bitsy (the bus in side view for example.) although, be careful about putting invisible objects: it can be nice, but also, if the player is pressing the arrow key several times in a row to move faster, the dialogue might not be seen, especially since it's not a dialogue you can hear again.

Appart from that the game is pretty cool; the fact that the player can't do anything else than eating the things in front of him/her because of the level design is funny.

Goblins 2 Go by SFBTom 2017-12-07T18:25:20Z

Beautiful and cute game, I played for way too long. Don't think I can get over 86%. I'm not sure if it fits the theme that well, but who cares ? It feels super-polished and anyone can get it pretty easily I think. It's great that you also put some images to tell what the potion does. Super useful when you're not a native english speaker.

It's incredible to see how much time the game can get our attention with verry few mechanics. That's so cool; I wish I could go back in time to do a bit more of that in my entry :O

Cats Per Second by Merrol 2017-12-07T20:49:19Z

Woh! I just had a really singular experience with your game, I have to tell you !!! :) :)

as the number of cat keep getting bigger, I thought I should tap everykey on my keyboard, so I startedpushing my keys 3 by 3, from right to left and left to right. And it felt like petting a cat ! Haha !! And the sound of my fingers going on the keyboard actually sounded just like a cat Purring. Was amazing.

Well, I still had 53 Cat Angels at the end :( :(

It's really hard !! haha, or maybe there's something I'm not getting. Maybe (even though it gave me a beautiful experience with the purring sound thing), it would have been nice to avoid having the player pressing every keys, using other mechanics for example. Like maybe "if you press a key on your keyboard the number of cats spawning grows !", that could be more interresting in term of gameplay and less random, too =)

It's a really cute game anyway and the cat art is way too cute. I loved it !

Jump Plus by Lazy Goblins 2017-12-18T14:54:09Z

Died 10 times.

I pretty much broke the game I think, most of the last levels, I just jumped 1 or 2 times and did the whole level that way, because of the velocity being the high. So actually, maybe it's "the more there is, the easier it is". The idea could be pretty good if you had more time to think about that kind of things, and do a bit more specific level design to fix those issues.

The animations are pretty good and the whole game (when you're not dying) feels pretty cool in hands

Space Dungeon by bbaf 2017-12-18T15:03:40Z

The art rocks ! @jegus9 pretty much said everything. Just being able to hold the mouse button to shoot would improve the general feeling. Also, I feel like having just bosses instead of lots of weak enemies is a really big scope and super hard to make in a game jam ! Maybe trying to make an easier game would hide the things you didn't have the time to make !

Run Guys by arron-fowler 2017-12-20T00:34:14Z

My best score was 1000 with a group of 14 ! It's pretty fun and I had a good time, I've already seen this kind of mechanic (here for example https://wimpykid456.itch.io/pepe-jump-land ) but never like this: usually you fail when all your group died, here you still have a single character and other people just make you less focused and unsure where you are. It can be a bit frustrating but actually i think it's a pretty good idea !

graphics do the job, it's not the reason why we play but they make the player understand the situation and are pretty ergonomics in term of game design: the player know what is an obstacle and what is not.

Good luck with the next projects =)

Run Guys by arron-fowler 2017-12-20T00:35:42Z

oh and the messages people say are really great, it's a super cool thing ! I would love it if there was a small voice acting !!

Catamari by Kieran Newland 2017-12-09T11:08:13Z

I ended up with 4 sausages eaten. The concept is fun, but it's verry frustrating trying to touch the food only with the head, playing 5 entire minutes feels long as it's really hard to eat even one sausage. The art is super cute though, the cat with its little butt is a super nice ball to play with. Also, i'm not sure it really gets worse when you eat more ?

Goodnight Sheep by littlecloudflower 2017-12-18T15:13:54Z

The game is really cool. I didn't expect anything and it worked pretty good. I didn't expect a story-driven game to fit the game that much. It's a pretty clever way to keep your player attention. I love how you used the theme for this.

Also woaw, you made two games !! Do you have guys have a twitter, looking forward for your next games !

Keep going... you have my interest by Zebraltar 2017-12-18T15:55:37Z

Too bad the game is not finished ! The concept is super funny !! I love the idea, would love a few more rooms and like, 5 objectives so that it'd be funnier than just one joke =)

Yarn the Kittens by Emilio Segura 2017-12-14T23:52:56Z

Yay, physic game ! It's pretty fun, the level design is sometime clever. I love how you can always go back just by pressing jump, because ot the round platform (you can roll on one side, then more on the other, then more on the other, etc)

It's pretty short but it's fine ! =) it's super cute, too ! :)

Don't get drunk by tulipekoni 2017-12-06T14:55:27Z

Just played, it's really a cool idea ! I love the fact that you can also avoid beers. The game doesn't just get more difficult as time goes, it gets difficult as you drink, and it gets harder not to drink when you're drunk. A bit like in real life I guess. It's hard to say no to a "final beer" when you already had some.

Graphics are good and clear enough to make the thing understandable

Mortal Komba by kokirisandfriends 2017-12-05T20:04:59Z

Loved it. It fits the theme wells and is really simple. I love the fact that you don't always start with the same character, (I'm wondering if it makes the game less ballanced but I didn't play enough to know that =3 ) it makes it less repetitive to try again, and i imediately started jumping again to make a better score.

The speed of the rope is a bit high, which makes it a bit confusing (+ it's small, kinda hard to see but really important in the gameplay) but that's okay, i don't think i would have ideas to make it better ! :)

the art and charadesign is really cute, too ! it makes me feel good.

I scored 40 r 41.. the 3rd character reallys makes it worse haha

Wonder Tsum by regisrquoi 2017-12-06T18:03:24Z

Thanks for all the lovely comments ! I'll tell the team ! @VictorSimoes / @tulipekoni : I'm thinking of making a mobile version, i'm affraid it might break the gameplay but it'd be fun to experiment with the Gyroscope of a smartphone ^_^

@fluidvolt sorry about the bug, we're aware of it, and trying to fix it, unfortunately it's hard to do ! Hopefully it didn't break your experience !

<3

Wonder Tsum by regisrquoi 2017-12-09T10:59:01Z

thanks all for you kind words ! =) =)

@samurai-spark thanks !! We're working on a mobile build at the moment ! :) We wanted to make the game a bit faster indeed but didn't have the time, as it sometime broke the puzzles-solving ! that's also the reason why the mobile version is not out yet ! =)

@naca : your entry was really great ! We actually realized LocoRoco was way too similar halfway through but decided hopefully it would be different enough, locoroco is a great game !

Wonder Tsum by regisrquoi 2017-12-10T23:56:21Z

@naca haha that's too sweet, the message was clear enough don't worry =) it was just a running gag durring the game jam, like : "Oh no, are we making LocoRoco ?!" , hahaha; thanks !!
