LD32 — An Unconventional Weapon

Nuclear Arms by Logicon 2015-04-25T02:56:00

this concept is really dope. I love the main character's subtle homage to Duke Nuke 'Em, lol. Very creative take on the theme as well. I enjoyed this!

Beats High Mountains Down by Galan 2015-04-24T02:10:00

concept definitely has potential. With a little polish, the idea could really turn into something bigger. Good effort.

Mable: The Journey by tripleVisionGames 2015-04-24T03:34:00

wow....this game left me speechless. Once I caught on with the weapon mechanics, it was a ton of fun. The pixel art was extreeeemely well-done. Love the parallax scrolling of the trees. GREAT job!

Alexis' Mission by Conflei 2015-04-24T04:04:00

graphics were pretty cool. Controls were a bit tough to understand, but otherwise, good entry. +1 on the audio...very immersive!

Daygore Bunko by SonnyBone 2015-04-24T02:31:00

Some of the most well-done pixel art i've seen in the competition so far. Very well-done! Combat felt just right as well.

Suri and Jeferex by muromets 2015-04-22T23:52:00

I love the art design and how the girl gets happier as the dinosaur grows. Solid work!

Goodie Bag by lbrande 2015-04-22T05:35:00

The control scheme is a bit loose. If that's intentional then cool, lol. It took a little bit to get a rhythm going. Cool concept :)

Banana Killer by syawqy 2015-04-22T05:39:00

I've never played a game where you're a mass murderer by way of the banana peel. Very original concept! Best score: 12 bananas to 77 people.

Cat by Thijs Tak 2015-04-22T05:45:00

The music has a nice Hans Zimmer percussive vibe to it. Love the text captions. Good stuff!

Type Fighter by LandoSystems 2015-04-22T03:25:00

nice game, it'd be really dope to see a multiplayer version of this! It'd spark a new generation of competitive typists, lol.

GameRoom by Anshul Goyal 2015-04-22T01:52:00

Game was pretty cool. I like the way the ring physics worked. I kept seeing the little targets for the rings as land mines. It'd have been cool if the ring detonated them. It'd have made the rings more weaponized, lol. Good job!

TeleMage by ProjectX593 2015-04-24T02:38:00

combat mechanics were very well done! Took a bit to figure out but man...this is really good.

SideArmed by BPO_Jeff 2015-04-24T03:22:00

graphics were really well done. animation was smooth too! I thoroughly enjoyed this concept :)

Nasal Defense Force 2033 by ShuddaHaddaLottaFun 2015-04-22T05:22:00

Hilarious concept. Makes me wonder how many people actually have lego bricks lodged up their noses, lol.

Bomb Boy by andrewkennedy 2015-04-24T02:21:00

very well-polished 3d platformer! Reminds me a bit like the old school 3d platforming greats, like Mario 64. Well done.

Combine Carnage by acro 2015-04-23T01:09:00

I enjoyed this. ran into some interesting physics issues with the harvester, but other than that, solid entry. That title screen...perfect!

Dirty Fork: Unleash the Mayhem by SmilingCat 2015-04-22T01:16:00

Once you get the controls down, it's a pretty fun experience. All that's missing is chicken to go with those waffles!

Soul Shutter by hitchh1k3r 2015-04-23T00:08:00

high score: 4232. The railed movement was done really well! Good work!

Ham-erTime by Hero7785 2015-04-22T23:47:00

I like the humor in the name and choice of unconventional weapon. The physics in the character controls could use a little tweaking, but otherwise I found it pretty cool. Keep up the good work.

Let Me Out by Psyho 2015-04-25T22:00:00

The audio does an awesome job of setting the mood here. The isometric view point definitely adds to the challenge as the rooms progress. Well done!

Mirrored by dopplerdefekt 2015-04-23T00:01:00

I'm a big fan of rhythm-based games, so I definitely enjoyed this and can see the potential in a more fleshed out version! Nice work1

Bar Brawler by Issacchaos 2015-04-22T00:50:00

Love the music change once you start the brawl!

Keyboard Command by HessesAdventure 2015-04-22T23:58:00

very innovative gameplay. I'm pretty decent at typing and still found a challenge in this game. Good job!

Graviton by Namide 2015-04-27T01:48:00

this game is really dope! The puzzle-based gameplay was very innovative and challenging, especially when the harmful objects began popping up! Good job!

GAMUBòRU GUMBALL!! by Robber 2015-04-24T02:45:00

that beat tho! Really good stuff. The graphics are extremely eye catching.

Retroflect by pkenney 2015-04-22T02:39:00

Love the deflection-based weaponry. I'm a big fan of shoot 'em ups! All it needs now is some cool chiptune music in the background!

Wild tales: enlightenment by psychonull 2015-04-24T04:14:00

4 games in one, good stuff! The soccer(football) part was pretty hard, lol.

Uncoinventional by Waterman7 2015-04-23T00:12:00

Hah...lots of humor in this text adventure. I clicked "use weapon" the whole way through.

Party Poltergeist's Party City by Chris Maire 2015-04-21T23:31:00

Kinda reminds me of "Haunt The House", but with a twist. +1 for the creepy piano ostinato in the background music.

Run Giraffe Run by Hilger 2015-04-23T00:16:00

The pixel art was really dope!

Home Defence by ZQMony 2015-04-22T03:00:00

very clever game. Not as easy as it looks either. The pixel graphics coupled with the chiptune music/sfx really set a nice vibe. Good job!

Gravity Diamond by crewderek 2015-04-21T23:40:00

Very interesting, a bit difficult to grasp without doing the tutorials first though. Nonetheless, it's enjoyable.

Super Beanja by orukinawa 2015-04-23T00:47:00

The weapon is definitely the highlight of the game. Nice work!

Laserino by 43iscoding 2015-04-21T23:50:00

very fun, super enjoyable puzzle concept! The achievements were a nice bonus!

Punch/Foot/Gun by flwns 2015-04-24T04:18:00

The art style was very unique...had a nice hand-drawn vibe to it. +1 on naming the truck "Charlene" btw.

Moss by uvwar 2015-04-22T03:30:00

love the visual effects applied to the camera. very interesting Could definitely see this being expanded into something cool!

Dinos Vs Volcanoes by Hambone 2015-04-23T00:29:00

solid concept. Definitely reminds me of Plants vs. Zombies. I'd recommend maybe implementing keyboard controls to help select the volcanoes, but I guess that'd make the game too easy, lol. Good work.

Roombacalypse by lucidsheep 2015-04-22T00:55:00

Hah, very funny concept. Graphics were polished and the controls felt just right.

Hoop Fighter by Aumni 2015-04-22T05:17:00

This is definitely unconventional, lol. The hoop physics are well-executed. Good work!

Slug Fest by jmborden 2015-04-22T01:00:00

Not as easy as I thought it would be, lol. Took a few tries 'till I came up with a strategy, lol.

HEAT by Frenchie 2015-04-23T04:08:00

the boss definitely brought an interesting twist on things. Good work!

The Uke Guy by FeniX 2015-04-23T23:37:00

This is really awesome! Way to turn the keyboard into an ukulele. This needs to be made into a VST instrument asap, lol. Good work!

The Hand That Feeds by Skinny Jean Death 2015-04-24T04:10:00

very good interpretation of the theme! Took a bit of time to figure out what to do, but I got the hang of it pretty quickly. I'd love to see this developed into something bigger down the road!

Hit The Roach, Jack! by rodobodolfo 2015-04-24T02:01:00

nice effort! Good combination of runner and shoot 'em up mechanics. Love the title as well!

Rollout by Tortoise 2015-04-22T02:50:00

love the switch up...wasn't expecting the helicopter's payload to be a tire. The physics were pretty interesting as well. My score was a measly 4500.

An Unconventional Error by Joe Lawrence 2015-04-22T00:15:00

well played! Very good. The log files are hilarious!

Lumber Jacques by gelisam 2015-04-24T03:53:00

had a good laugh...nice effort! Fell out of my chair at the first flaming bear that came at me. Good entry!

Un-Convention by zulubo 2015-04-23T00:23:00

LOL...the weapon is literally an "un" conventional weapon. Very well played! I scored 330, lol.

Shadow Stalker by morokiane 2015-04-22T01:47:00

cool concept! The sunshafts coming out of the windows was a nice graphical touch as well!

Save the meeps. by Meep 2015-04-22T00:08:00

8 years old?! Amazing. I can only imagine how good he's going to be 10 years down the road. Keep him on the right track!

Unconventional Cowfare by uber 2015-04-21T12:45:00

I'm never living near a farm...ever, lol. Good game!

Ninja Swapper by Plustech 2015-04-25T02:37:00

love the concept, the platform movement...wall jumps...weapon use...all of it feels just right. With a little polish this thing could be a monster! Good job!

Sugar Lake Chronicles by ProgrammerSteve 2015-04-24T02:26:00

Definitely feeling the old school action RPG style pixel art & gameplay. The melee attack was reminiscent of Secret of Mana...well executed.

A Snowball's Chance by diiq2 2015-04-22T00:23:00

The lighting system is pretty cool. Gameplay was dope as well, it gets difficult pretty fast.

Photon Invasion by Ding! Games 2015-04-23T23:58:00

interesting concept, the intro documentation was helpful as well. GUI was polished. Ran into a few little issues here and there, but overall good work!

Magic Weapon by roma96roma 2015-04-24T00:02:00

Love the concept! Keep building...this thing could turn into something really awesome with some polish. Good work.

Pimp Hand by AnEvilEmpire 2015-04-23T23:53:00

Had a few laughs. That pimp slap is vicious, he's literally slapping the soul out of people judging by all the fireworks going off upon contact. I see potential in this concept. Keep pushin!

Little Nightmare by filipeev 2015-04-24T00:08:00

great effort! That toy-box music really sets the mood! Love the enemy designs as well!

Don't Choke! by Big Cow 2015-04-23T23:33:00

hah, as a rapper, I approve this game. Seriously though, very innovative concept.

Space Enforcer by Suhvan4ik 2015-04-22T05:31:00

very innovative concept. The music is pretty awesome. The difficulty level can get intense, especially with the rate at which the missiles are fired from each city. Nice work!

Eggs vs Knights by M9Josh 2015-04-22T01:06:00

not bad, the concept definitely has potential. The collision needs a bit of polish, but other than that, good stuff!

Free Dame by OrkyOrks 2015-04-22T01:33:00

I love any and everything related to the Cold War. AWESOME theme! Love the gameplay mechanics too, I'd just tweak the loss conditions a bit. Other than that, solid entry!

Adaptation by Grahhhhh 2015-04-21T23:24:00

Interesting concept. The sound effects match the retro graphics perfectly. +1 for the music tempo increasing as the stakes get higher.

Smoking Kills by LesPingouinsDuCiel 2015-04-24T01:38:00

very creative interpretation of the theme, lol. The penguin wing mouse cursor was a good touch as well! Great work!

Unconventional Tower by F. Wiktora 2015-04-23T00:43:00

good first entry. As I played, I could only imagine how awesome it'd be to have an anti-tax collector weapon in real life.

Queen Bee by PurpleMonkey 2015-04-22T03:35:00

This game gets pretty deep. I definitely love the concept, it probably could use some hand-holding in the beginning to help in learning all of the gameplay mechanics. Other than that, good work!

Rabbit by minnouu 2015-04-24T01:43:00

nice work! I like the progressive difficulty as the time goes on. Having to adjust strategies between the small enemies and the large ones gives a nice added challenge.

Scream(But not too much) by Embalaje 2015-04-25T22:04:00

Dope! The scream mechanic is cool. +1 for the pixel art. Very well done!

Stand and Deliver by ArthG 2015-04-24T02:17:00

very interesting. Couldn't figure out what the objective was, but boy...i had them letters flying, lol. Good work.

Cheesy Defender by SledKnight 2015-04-22T01:56:00

I gave you 5 stars for the audio, those chewing sound effects had me pretty shook, lol. I hate rats...but love this concept!

MONSTER CANNON! by grywhttl 2015-04-22T03:47:00

I see you with the Mothra & Godzilla references! Good stuff, lol. The cannon aiming & power could use a bit of refinement, but other than that, nice work!

Hello Darkness: My Old Friend by HapaxStudios 2015-04-22T23:37:00

Good concept, can't wait to see how it fleshes out! One thing I'd recommend is a way to exit out of the dialogue boxes that pop up when you interact with computers. Nice job, keep up the updates! :)

The Unfortunate Demise of William by jooshkins 2015-04-21T23:55:00

Pretty cool interactive story. The pixel art brought me back to 1989, lol. Good work!

Shop 'Till They Drop by ratheronfire 2015-04-24T01:48:00

Good effort! The baguette melee attack was my go-to move, lol.

Last MEOW by Fichindo 2015-04-22T02:00:00

The cat bazooka alone makes this game worthy of all my time. Interesting twist on the sidescrolling survival shooter genre!

Soul Lamp by dwarven_gamecrafters 2015-04-24T02:34:00

cool concept! I'd definitely like to see how this turns out with a little more polish. Good entry!

lelworms by Synert 2015-04-24T02:40:00

Good twist on the "worms" gameplay style. I enjoyed it.

LIGHT by MSiddeek 2015-04-22T01:12:00

very solid! Love the way it teaches you new game mechanics as the levels progress.

Belly Battle by FractalFox 2015-04-21T23:45:00

Enjoyed it...took awhile to grasp the gameplay (i didn't read the description, lol), but i can see this concept being fleshed out into a pretty cool game down the road.

Keyboard Warrior by DugelStudios 2015-04-22T00:03:00

Made by an 8th grader? I'm impressed! Keep it up. I'd recommend polishing the attack speed and maybe using the mouse button as an attack instead of enter.

SolSurvivor by Blobo 2015-04-23T23:41:00

Pretty tough game! This definitely can turn into one of those addictive hi-score style mobile games. The menu is brilliantly done as well. Good stuff!

Disaster Theatre by 12 Pechás Of Souls 2015-04-22T03:10:00

had a bit of trouble with aiming at first, but once I got the hang of it, everything was cool. The music is AMAZING...loved the graphic puppet style as well.

UnconventionalWarfare by NaKolenke 2015-04-24T03:27:00

Nothing like burning down a town to some nice relaxing music, lol. Good work!

Ghost Con: The Reckoning by TEAM-TIGER 2015-04-23T00:58:00

the graphics, wow. Good work! Very polished look to it, especially the UI.

Super Bye Bye Bot by GenericTeamName 2015-04-23T00:52:00

nice concept, enjoyed the turn-based text battle system. Only recommendation I'd have is to anchor the GUI elements so they adjust based on resolution. Other than that, good work!

FIREFLY GUN ! by TRAB 2015-04-23T01:03:00

wow....LOVED the graphics. The mechanic of having to use the fireflies to light your path was genius.

Food Fighter 2000 by sP0CkEr2 2015-04-22T05:26:00

I like the graphical style. Simple, yet very retro. The music matches perfectly. There were a few bugs, but I can definitely see the potential in this with some more polish. Good work!

Out of Bullets by haveric 2015-04-24T03:59:00

Hah, this was very entertaining. Plays like a shmup but in reverse...and without bullets of course. Brilliant interpretation of the theme :)
