LD21 — Escape

""Escape the Flood 3D"" by RipX 2011-08-23T04:10:00

@matthias_zarzecki As you see..I managed to get in a bunch more levels, energy bars, different walk speeds and recovery rates for tribes people etc as we all had a 12 hour extension ^_^

@Hanoran Thank you... yes, it was very inspired from this game, my friend bought it the other day for xbox360 so this was an attempt to create a simplified version in 48 hours lol

@Lattyware Yes, I kinda agree but if you keep playing controls do get easier ^_^ (I wish I'd had time to make the camera collide with the ground).

""Escape the Flood 3D"" by RipX 2011-08-23T18:19:00

@elbowroom - Thanks, Nope, there were never to be enemies. The rising flood water is the only thing detrimental to the survival of the tribes.

""Escape the Flood 3D"" by RipX 2011-09-05T08:49:00

@KevinWorkman ... you have to work for it ^_^

LD24 — Evolution

Star's Requiem by davisan 2012-09-17T21:24:00

Really nice. I enjoyed the huge amount of different styles, the game slows you down by not allowing you to ship the text, but in some ways it provides depth to the atmosphere of the game, it feels dark. Not so sure about the main sprite animation of gravity of this planet but overall a very nice effort.

Time Boson by martensms 2012-09-17T23:11:00

Evolution... it simply didn't work!

Stevie Asteroid Rescues the Hovercredits by KHANanaphone 2012-09-11T11:56:00

Very difficult, bugs and lackluster graphics but the evolution theme was there and given a bit of time it grew on me.

Life is Pietzsche by Rave Radbury 2012-09-17T21:39:00

Simple yet fun little game. I enjoyed it.

Terminal Illness by chorinator 2012-09-17T21:52:00

Nice graphics.... HORRIBLE controls! lol I did like the way you added some common game mechanics, but those controls!!!

Evolve by Electric Fruit 2012-09-17T21:15:00

Nice game, I enjoyed the evolution element that you nailed. Couldn't get past the bird stage o___O. Skeptical about some of the graphics which are directly ripped from Mario but overall one of the better entries for me.

Bit-Craft Evolution by eyehawk 2012-09-07T21:03:00

I literally see a blue screen and cursor after the title screen, it was like going back to Windows 95. Sound was working fine but I couldn't play the game :(

Hard Life 3X by echa 2012-09-11T10:51:00

Despite the simplistic graphics, this started to feel like a more in-depth and interesting game the more that I played it. I found it quite innovative and captures the theme well and you get a sense of urgency when you collide with an entity. :)

Unfinished Evolution Entry by voxel 2012-09-11T11:52:00

Apart from the epilepsy, there wasn't much to this and I think that leaves us in the realm of negative gameplay lol. I feel like this might have been an ambitious project that became uninspired but maybe there is something in here in a future development, given more time. I do like audio driven games and I thought 'Rez' when I saw this entry.

Axolotl Pop by zeid 2012-09-11T10:30:00

Really enjoyed this game! I can see the resemblance to Pang (or the million clones). I also like the fact that you released it as an App and feel like it would work quite well. The graphics are great and well polished and I enjoyed the gameplay and variety of weapons. Overall, I really enjoyed it but innovation was lacking a little and can't see how it fits into the topic too much (maybe I didn't get far enough?)

The Brewer by Maikeroppi 2012-09-17T23:18:00

I am a master brewer.!! Game was kinda engrossing, it's very addictive in its simplicity. The mechanics reminded a little of old LCD games which were fun and so was this. I didn't see much of the theme relevance and the game was short, but still it was a fun.

Darwin's Ghost vs. Science by zachstronaut 2012-09-17T23:31:00

I liked this entry... nice idea. Kinda finicky controls but feels like it needed them to avoid making the game too easy. Like how you captured the theme of this Ludum Dare. Yeh, I enjoyed it.

Upward Mankind by chamberlainpi 2012-08-28T14:48:00

You can't go wrong with a cherry pixel sky :D and I'm with everyone else when I say that in game music is brilliant! This game made me want more!!

Corvus by Trollamor 2012-09-17T21:31:00

Couldn't figure out the aim to this game nor how it fits into the theme but it looks nice though!

Social Evolution by Jorjon 2012-09-11T10:40:00

Wish this game was longer, although I was confused to what I should have been doing at first, once I figured it out, it was a very simple. The graphics were great, nice little shader, sound in there was OK too for such a short development time. Feels like you brute-forced the topic into your game lol...Overall though, I loved the lush graphics, I also like the event window, especially when I ate McDonalds.

Evolution by RipX 2012-08-28T14:18:00

Thanks everyone :D

@chamberlainpi Made souond fx but ran out of time.
@Mclogenog Try trapping them behind walls ;)

Evolution by RipX 2012-08-30T18:07:00

@BenW The character evolves if you progress through the game :)

Evolution by RipX 2012-08-30T18:08:00

@BenW Actually.. everything evolves, including the environment, other characters etc. Your next character is a little bee lol ^___^

Evolution by RipX 2012-09-11T12:11:00

@voxel Thanks man... what an awesome comment!

Evolution by RipX 2012-09-20T12:31:00

#292 - So happy with that. Seems some people never got to see the character evolve lol. I must admit, I made it very difficult so, next time I'll try to make an ending before resorting to making it so people can't get to the end rofl. Had a great time guys, expect me at the next one and I'll put more that 24h into it! :D

evolution game by revilossor 2012-08-28T21:23:00

Enjoyed watching your development at MadLab Manchester. Congrats on a fun little game :D

DashDashDASH by refreshgames 2012-09-17T23:23:00

I think I agree with most here... The controls were floaty, but you still managed to get out quite a nice game graphically. The shooting seemed a bit flaky too, but overall it still comes off OK. Good job in the time limit.

Whelp by CaptainKraft 2012-09-07T20:58:00

Nice idea.. graphics were pretty nice. Sounds were a bit basic and I noticed a couple of collision bugs but solid effort.

Disease by lesterpig 2012-09-17T21:48:00

VERY buggy but I was still able to kind of get around. I thought that the large environment was nice. The music was pretty good too (provided a nice atmosphere). Was put off slightly by the pace of the game, it felt a little like I was grinding just to move. But I still enjoyed it.

Evolution by nosfer 2012-09-11T11:01:00

With nothing to differentiate between the platforms that fall away from you. This game left me wondering why someone would play this game. I noticed a couple of bugs, I landed on the edge of a platform and it killed me lol. The graphics do look OK and I see there is some kind of 3D effect on the platforms but it's not been pulled off too well but a nice addition. Good effort though.

Attack of the killer cute things! by Waynetron 2012-09-17T23:50:00

Enjoyed the game.. the step up in difficulty at level 3 was slightly abrupt, but a fun game.. Not sure where the evolution theme came into this. Overall enjoyable.. and I loved the end comment ;)

LD25 — You are the Villain

Mad Princess by AdventureIslands 2012-12-17T09:21:00

Really like this game. Had some issues deploying weapons which made it a little frustrating but nice graphics, great sound and well polished.

Dracula's Treasure by 01010111 2012-12-17T09:37:00

Nice music, nice graphics let down a bit by having only one level. Reminded me on a game called Ghost House on the Sega Master System and other games on the MSX. Fun!

Destroy All Heroes by Vennril 2012-12-19T10:03:00

Really nice graphics, enjoyed playing. Would have liked some sound but that's usually my omission too :) Definitely like to see it fleshed out and better balanced.

Robbie's Revenge by bubar 2012-12-17T08:56:00

Really nice game, I played the old Rampage game so I see the resemblance. Good music and fun but Revenge noodles? (Were they noodles?) lol

RUN ZOMBIE RUN §§§ by xviniette 2012-12-16T19:08:00

Simple game mechanic and fun...well done!

Evil Driver by rogerklotz 2012-12-17T08:50:00

Innovative idea. Would have been better if my browser wasn't moving around when I pressed up and down.

Run N' Destroy by killmonday 2012-12-18T10:31:00

Great game, love the art style, VERY difficult for me and after many attempts my eyes were all wobbly from the motion. lol. Nice concept, especially the human aspect and a good few stars from me.

The Rise and Fall of Professor Moriarty by ProfessorMoriarty 2012-12-19T09:56:00

Really nice game, enjoyed the simple mechanics.

Just kill Stuff by RipX 2012-12-16T15:20:00

'cos you suck!

Just kill Stuff by RipX 2012-12-16T16:57:00

Thanks @RyanArcher - Just added a fix.

Just kill Stuff by RipX 2012-12-16T17:16:00

Made the game a little bit easier too! Well done @kivifreak for being the only one persistent enough :D

Just kill Stuff by RipX 2012-12-16T21:07:00

@shatterhand - Oh.. believe me, I know! lol :D
@pariahdog - Glad you played it through! :)

Thanks for the nice comments guys.

Holly Jolly Pyromaniac by UndergroundPixel 2012-12-19T10:41:00

Amazing artwork and sound. 5★ Made me feel nostalgic for my old Sega Master System (These graphics would be very high end for that machine). Game play is very simple but sometimes the bombs didn't fall, maybe I was pressing to fast?! :) Overall superb.
