LD24 — Evolution

Pixelapse by BNeutral 2012-09-09T20:19:00

Really great game! The only down side was the sliding of the character and the later levels made it really hard to do the platforming, keep it up!

AvRvE by Cake&Code 2012-08-28T00:19:00

great game! Really love the graphic style and polish to the user experience, keep it up!

Acts of August: Introspective by NeiloGD 2012-08-29T00:33:00

Really interesting combining all of these mediums and one Jam, way to be creative! Love the effects in the game, great mood and feel. Keep it coming

Blobolution by Gallefray 2012-09-04T13:21:00

Neat game, for a usability stand point I would have liked a restart button or start button to prepare myself. I always found my self stuck with grabbing a couple blobs from the left and then the rest get away from me, More randomization would help. Keep it up take care.

Oculus Battalion by Maxium 2012-08-29T15:14:00

Love the capturing and releasing mechanic. The shooting felt a bit too hard to hit my target. Maybe a bigger beam would help

Terminal Illness by chorinator 2012-08-29T00:29:00

Yeah solid shooting and like to fast movement.

Bakeneko by Tempest 2012-08-28T22:29:00

Hey Tempest, really interesting game. Love the style and the polish to the UI for this game. It was fun to play around with but I don't know if I fully understood the meta mechanics of using the different dimensions and such. Thanks for the upload :)

AGAIN Corp: Adaptive Genetic Artificially Initiated Corporation by CapGrip 2012-09-12T09:55:00

Excellent game guys, really loved the experience of playing around with the mechanics and then seeing my attributes evolve and the building of the music really sealed the deal for me. Really like the bold nature of no HUD and the little touches with the intro. Looking forward to your future stuff ;)

Existence : Evolving with Videogames by Richard Matey 2012-08-28T16:53:00

Hey Axcho,

THanks for playing, to go up the building walls you need to hold W & D and the character will go up as long as he is against the wall. I know kinda hacky haha but its just a mechanic that developed from some early playtests. Also my first platformer controls, so there is definitly some jank haha

Existence : Evolving with Videogames by Richard Matey 2012-08-28T16:54:00

Thanks for the comments everyone. I am really glad to see all the feedback :)

Existence : Evolving with Videogames by Richard Matey 2012-08-28T20:49:00

thanks for playing guys!

Dramble: yeah the drug dealer thing is suppose to be from left field and kinda makes fun of how meaningless collectibles are. HAha need to work on my feedback in the game.

X-Out: Yeah I definitely need to add a invisible wall to fix that

emveyh: thanks for the feed back, much appreciated :)

PEB 2012 by madpew 2012-08-28T23:15:00

Solid game, really impressed with the polish and overall lay out. Really would like some pinball effects added to this with balls on fire, bonuses and etc. Good game!

Gems of the Evolving Land by RawBits 2012-08-29T21:20:00

Hey really interesting game and impressive you finished this in 48 hours pretty awesome. Really need to see the help screen without exiting and reloading the game, to go back and forth while playing.

The evolution games / unnatural selection by Andrew 2012-09-04T13:37:00

Finished the game with 855, really like the mood and those cats are pretty terrifying even more than the sharks. How did you do the flash light effect?

Complexitivity by Accidental Rebel 2012-09-01T21:03:00

Great game, really unique feel for the first person perspective, love the little touches of helping the player know when the blocks will fall. There is alot of potential here for expansion.

OF SPECIES by kato9 2012-08-28T17:59:00

Really love the graphic design and look of this game, great job!

DashDashDASH by refreshgames 2012-08-28T22:20:00

Hey I had a lot of fun with this! Like the runner and shooter elements combined. Like the happy graphics. Those stars are kinda dicks tho haha. Thanks for the game.

Cave Creature by defiantburrito 2012-08-29T14:56:00

Yeah, actually pretty fun and has the core flow of a good RPG. The world and scope is impressive for the time to make this. Couldnt find any way to replenish my health while out of the cave.

Gobblegoks: Evolution by pighead10 2012-08-28T22:37:00

Fun game, thanks for the upload :) Would like to see the player evolve more in the minute to minute gameplay

Human Evolution by emveyh 2012-08-28T20:08:00

Fun game, I like the controls and feel. Do the pickups actually give me a power up or just gating me from the next area?

LD26 — Minimalism

Tamborine Man by Markavian 2013-04-30T00:16:00

Should add a loading bar, nicely designed logo made me think it was part of the site.

Mini Pirates! by josefnpat 2013-04-29T22:50:00

Haha Nice game, my entry is very similar in idea / rules http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-26/?action=preview&uid=16170

Simply Escape by wccrawford 2013-05-06T15:47:00

Cool idea, would have liked to seen some signs of progression to know the puzzle has changed in the room. Maybe the room gets dirtier and darker ?

Mnmlsm by villhest 2013-04-29T23:12:00

Dude, you have to tell me how you got those waves to work in Unity, was looking for some good documentation but didn;t find any. Love the aesthetics, would have liked if the cursor stayed more centered on the screen.

Ninja Instinct by Taldius 2013-04-30T15:36:00

Great little platforming :)

The Tater Conspiracy by Korda 2013-04-30T16:17:00

Wow incredible job on the look, lightmapping, and mood of the scene, really love walking around and looking at your world. Kinda reminds me of a Brandon Chung game.

Embarrassingly I couldn't get past the first clue at the fountain. Arrived there just not sure what to do.

Disposable Rockets by the.vaber 2013-04-29T14:05:00

Great job finishing this, love the hard edge art style, great look. It would be fun to have some interesting challenges in the game, like gravity pull on the rocks. Maybe you can use a gravity pull to break through another planets pull!

Mag by alexfalkenberg 2013-04-30T15:11:00

Like the hectic nature, would like to see more colors to give new feedback results for the player.

COLORUS by JokerDen 2013-04-30T15:19:00

Love the graphic design in this game and great job coming up with this fresh game design.

Rogue Pirates by Richard Matey 2013-04-29T22:53:00

@Michael Hall Thanks! The water is the Unity Pro version it was a free trial over the weekend so a great excuse to experiment with it. Check out their site their other examples are way better just need more documentation.

Rogue Pirates by Richard Matey 2013-04-30T00:12:00

Thanks for playing everyone and leaving feedback!

Rogue Pirates by Richard Matey 2013-04-30T00:32:00

@Josefnpat Thanks for checking it out. Haha yeah I have a ton of bugs because of fast physic implementation but maybe thats the silly charm for now haha. Great point on the goal. Still changing that and messing around with values to get the most mileage out. Will Edit!

Rogue Pirates by Richard Matey 2013-05-03T23:05:00

@rogueNoodle Yep that is correct :) Thanks for checking it out and the comments!

(Follow the) Line by Chman 2013-04-30T00:22:00

Great execution on this theme and love the design of the aesthetics

Don't Freeze by rpgwhitelock 2013-04-29T22:57:00

Wow fantastic job of nailing that mood. Immediately from start of game, it felt cold and isolated, I really wanted to huddle close to that fire. Love the looks of the lightmaping hard edge poly and triangles.

Chez Angelo by EdoMiyamoto 2013-05-06T16:10:00

Great work, cant wait to play more experiences like this. The interacting part of picking up keys and necessary actions could use some love, like making the key disappear and maybe a sound effect to know when the player has progressed.

Balls! by Codexus 2013-04-30T14:29:00

Great job and fantastic lighting, inspired me to make some better looking games :)

Not Complex by NuSan 2013-04-29T23:06:00

Wow first I want to say how much I love the look of this game. Completely original and kept me in the seat to want to figure out the game. Not a fan of how the controls are and the default isometric view in conjunction with it. Maybe its because the starting area has big holes in it. Ps. I didn't know what Maj, meant before coming back to this page.

Million Dollar Manbaby by Lianne Booton 2013-04-29T23:18:00

Haha love the wacky nature of this game. Fun challenge and liked the attaching of severed limbs onto my man baby even if it hindered the play.

Miximal by Cheshyr 2013-04-30T19:59:00

Couldn't figure out how to affect the mix, pressed all the buttons and never felt like I knew what the game wanted.

Arena by rogueNoodle 2013-04-30T15:04:00

Love the design of the UI and putting it around the Arena.

Mini-Malicious - when the bit bugs byte by multitude 2013-04-30T16:43:00

I loved that you did the spoken parts for the intro and reactions, really good fun and humor. Not sure the best strategy for the game but keep coming with cool games :)

PHILIP KLAS by neight 2013-04-29T23:38:00

That dub step drop was so necessary. Kudos on the potatoes and fries.

hru by gilmore606 2013-04-29T23:48:00

Fantastic, really like the sound mixed in with the pacing, you really nailed it in mood. Very relaxing to play.

MinimalisMan by Adipson 2013-04-29T14:26:00

I really like the humor and the background art style. Hard to find the time to get through the whole prototype while I am bouncing back forth between checking out all the games.

Captain Blowhole by EatYourBeef_Doug 2013-04-30T00:29:00

Fantastic Work, one of my favorites games so far.

omph by tikilittle 2013-04-30T15:41:00

Great what have you been able to accomplish with no text, it is really fun trying to figure out something entirely new but I was stuck on this puzzle. http://img443.imageshack.us/img443/7319/e4dd2d6e5267426e9dc085f.png sound effects would be a great touch. Reminded me of The Room.

Atom That Matters by Babek 2013-04-29T22:44:00

Can you put this on Dropbox or a more reliable download host? Would love to try your game but when site has 5 links on a page of download now, can be confusing.

TRANSFER_THEM by Sayaer 2013-04-30T00:08:00

Hey there Sayeer, to add the web version put those files into your "Public" folder in dropbox. Then right click and grab the link to the .html file.

Great music and love the style of the game. Seems like the less I do makes it easier to play the game ? Less spinning transfers more of them ? Kudos on trying something different

CubeMaster by JimmyLord 2013-04-29T13:58:00

Great idea, love the effects and really enjoyed the shockwaves.

SPACE JAMZ by Musicolor 2013-04-30T00:02:00

These are banging space jams! Had to check out Charlee's other music. This stuff is terrific.

Shaving Quest: The Razor's Edge by Milktoast 2013-04-29T23:22:00

For a man that can not grow a proper beard, my dream would be to shave a face with a healthy grow and expose a young fresh face in hiding, even if it is virtually. Please make my dreams come true ;)

Road Rage by Jimjam 2013-04-30T14:52:00

Love the ideas in this game and great clean on screen UI.

OBASS (one-button-automatic-sidescrolling-shooter) by Polyganz 2013-04-30T15:27:00

Great challenge ramp, not a big fan of this type of game but liked what you did with it.

Just Because by bigbazwa 2013-04-29T23:31:00

I love Just Cause 2 also and when I read your trying to strip that down in 2 days I thought pffttt, but man that is just what you did. Really funny how similar the pace is and lots of fun kudos. I was able to rangle 20 enemies into a group at a time http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/8681/b8acacc838a748079adec60.png

Psydude by iFred_QC 2013-04-30T16:09:00

Great game, reminds me of the MSX

LD27 — 10 Seconds

GLITCH by TravisChen 2013-08-27T04:32:00

Wow I really loved playing with this. Very innovative idea on changing the perspective every 10 seconds. HOW DID YOU DO THE DOT MATRIX STYLE. Love that part, please give me a comment back to let me know how you did that. :)

Ready Or Not by godan 2013-08-27T04:26:00

Cool game, really like the idea of sneaking across a top down world. Would be fun to start the game with a easier level then ramp up.

Mr.President! (Web) by Richard Matey 2013-08-27T02:48:00

Thanks for the feedback guys! I will definitely tune the controls.

MatchiMatchi by Jesper Oskarsson 2013-08-27T04:03:00

I really like the panning textures and graphic design. Fun to match 3 but the sounds of scoring hurt my lil ears. Keep up the great game making.

GitGirl - Conflict Resolver by ddionisio 2013-08-27T04:10:00

I like your trippy background and hardcore midi.

10 Seconds to Save the World by HacksawUnit 2013-08-27T03:49:00

Nice controls, interesting how small the resolution is, might have some interesting uses in a narrative.

Get Out! by LordHellMaX 2013-08-27T05:25:00

Great job on this, love the atmosphere you created and the little touches to each wall writing. It's getting close to October can't wait for Halloween now !

Lair Raid by Parappa 2013-08-27T04:56:00

I liked having a giant team would like to see them represented in the battle even if they were just one pixel. Would be fun to watch.

Altair 409 by drakekin 2013-08-27T04:28:00

Would love to play this game but the link is not working. Please give me a comment when it is up :)

Cyanocide by nicotuason 2013-08-30T15:34:00

Fantastic work, really love the style of the art and the feel of the controls

Choice Matters by donan 2013-08-27T03:04:00

I like the funny nature of this game and rendered look. Thanks for uploading :)

Ten-2nd Scientist by whiteravens 2013-08-27T03:40:00

I like the style of this game, reminds me of Yoshi Island and I like the fun Wario ware nature to the mini games. Was confused by the controls at first.

10 Sec Away From the Earth by dancingflame 2013-08-27T04:14:00

I really like the graphic style and really creative use of 10 seconds.

Unseen by Neo-Blue 2013-08-27T04:52:00

Wow fantastic job with the audio work. Really enjoyed my experience with headphones on.

Black & White & Time by NachoDA 2013-08-27T02:06:00

Doesn't look like your link is working. Also make sure to delete the "s" in https. Makes it load better for other viewers

Black & White & Time by NachoDA 2013-08-27T02:10:00

Hmmm started to work for me, but not sure what I can click on and where I can get rid of stuff or add.

Attack of the n00b Models by metranil 2013-08-27T04:39:00

Fun game! I like the spread on the shotgun.

VIP by Unept 2013-08-27T04:22:00

Wow this is fantastic. My game is similar to this but very different in execution. Love the strategy you added to this concept.

VIP by Unept 2013-08-27T05:12:00

Haha Thanks for playing my game! I had to go back to yours and show my friends, one of my favorites of this jam so far. Since we lost a little Whitney Houston this year its only right to put a little more into the soundtrack ;)

TrI-Deca by futuristteletex 2013-08-27T05:05:00

I really like the graphic style, the game play is great too. Would like to see where this goes :)

10 Seconds Before Flush by Geeks-n-chicks 2013-08-27T04:06:00

Love the graphic design style of this game. I need to poop on more things in real life!

Escape Base 10 by Jayjay 2013-08-28T02:06:00

I had a lot of fun running through all your levels. Really clever level design! Keep up the great work!

The Alchemist's Workshop by fantasywiz54 2013-08-27T02:17:00

Cool this reminds me of Japanese game for the PS1 that originally came out with the addition of the analog stick.

Zzzecret Agent by BlennosoftGames 2013-08-27T05:00:00

Fun little stealth game.

ROBOT PLANET by GeorgeBroussard 2013-08-30T19:29:00

Awesome game George love the pure rogue like nature to this.
