LD24 — Evolution (15)
Evolution by RipX 2012-09-13T17:30:00
Beautiful graphics!
Species by mappum 2012-09-10T23:28:00
Not very good as a platformer (those ladders, man!) but I loved the horror aspect. Please work more on this after the compo!
Psychiatric Evaluation by ConflictiveLabs 2012-09-10T23:12:00
Very cool having to travel through the different levels of sanity to escape. I'd really like to see an updated version where you eventually have 3D graphics levels of sanity that let you see even more things!
Quantum Seed by motionbit 2012-09-10T22:52:00
The gameplay was a bit slow paced and not at all challenging, but the audio and visuals were absolutely beautiful.
Influenza by Miltage 2012-09-10T22:39:00
This is fantastic. Very well done.
Tiny Evolution Adventure by AdventureIslands 2012-09-10T19:47:00
Amazing graphics and audio. Some way of knowing how many more creatures you have to eat and where the exit is would definitely help, but it is very well done as it is.
Fluff by someone 2012-09-10T19:29:00
Please finish this, it is very good and has a lot of potential to become excellent. :-)
EvolBots (not EvilBots) by vigrid 2012-09-10T19:15:00
It's a sort of Marble Madness style game with swarm mechanics. Very cool.
A scientific experiment by sirGustav 2012-09-07T19:57:00
Amazing. Please continue development of this after the competition!
One small issue: please allow resizing for smaller screen sizes. :-)
DNA Wars by nka 2012-09-06T23:06:00
Very enjoyable. Well done!
MiniEvolution by Smirnov48 2012-09-06T22:39:00
Very interesting concept.
Complexitivity by Accidental Rebel 2012-09-06T22:16:00
Very fun game. Looking forward to your version with upgraded graphics!
LD24 Tower Defense by ishav 2012-09-06T19:29:00
All I had to do was build a bunch of turrets and aim them all at the spawn point and I was set for the rest of the game. Make more than one spawn location.
Darwin's Apple by demonpants 2012-09-06T18:24:00
Very impressive for 9 hours. I do think this would have been much better if you had focused more effort to make it easier to read the stats when there are a large amount of them all instead of all overlapping each other. I realize you already addressed this, but I was discouraged that the core mechanic of your game was so difficult to achieve due to the UI.
Lamarck's Theory of Evolution by Gear 2012-08-28T04:45:00
First off, I disagree with many of the comments here, I actually enjoyed the aiming in this game. It adds depth, as the inability to shoot those chasing you forces you to outrun your predators while hunting your prey.
I love the evolution mechanic, but it feels depressing to have to kill yourself to get stronger. I can immediately think of two ways to solve this:
1. Have the options always being visible so the player can spend his XP at any point. The problem with this is that evolution doesn't exactly work that way.
2. Make "waves" of enemies, and have the upgrade phase between those waves. I like this one, because it would be as if each wave is fought by the next generation.
One last thought: The movement controls would be more enjoyable for me if you had used the Asteroids-style RotateCCW/Forward/RotateCW controls instead of left/up/down/right.
Overall, this was a very good game that I believe could take up hours of my day after a little polish. Nice job!
