Running Space by geeitsomelaldy 2018-08-14T15:29:12Z

Gameplay was cool, But i felt a little cheated. I cant take cover behind the wallks on level 3, but the Bots can(i cant shoot trough the walls but they can). I also was missing mouse controls, the bots had very smooth movement which made it hard fro me to shot them with WASD.

The audio and graphics was very good for 48 hours :clap: and the power ups was a nice addition(flamethrower :frog: :clap:). the theme was also nicely implemented although the hitboxes could be a little weird and lead to death when turning around overall a cool little game @geeitsomelaldy

Box Co.® - Monster Storage by Tyler Funk 2018-08-14T22:34:50Z

The synergy with the theme and turn best mechanics really work well together :clap: The controls was a little weird at first but once i go the hang of it was very smooth. I also want to praise you for the tune at the end. keeping in mind this was made in only 48 hours this is a very enjoyable game @tyler-funk well done :clap:

Get Outer Space! by Nick Rafalski 2018-08-17T12:17:39Z

This is very cool looking and fun game. There is some kind of effect on the screen (shader?) that really holds the graphics together very impressiv might have to check out the src :bikini: :mag:. I did encounter a problem most likely me not understanding something but i couldn't drag the items after a while, maybe i ran out of space? didn't look like it. i am sure you can take this game to the next level the concept is very interesting. GG my friend

RED - 23 by louis-denizet 2018-08-14T14:57:48Z

Fantastic game @skreed @louis-denizet @redruth the audio combined with the graphics and game play meshed perfectly together but i stumbled upon a bug(?) mini map would not update some times and it created some hives without me knowing :frog: and when i got there i got stuck on some rogue colliders. Other then that i felt that the theme could have been emphasized more in structures/connections i never really felt like i as running out of space :frog:. But overall i had a great time playing your game and beating the boss :japanese_goblin:.

Into Asteroid Belt by Jakub Kazimierski 2018-08-13T15:25:45Z

This is a classic, very cool art style like fryderider says brings back memoirs of my game boy. The Theme is in my opinion well used which is huge amount of :clap:s, 39 :clap:s in total Well done Bud.

Last Piece by WetBox 2018-08-15T19:27:56Z

Wow this game was very interesting, i started out panicked but figured out you can get a free turn because how the RNG block fall logic was set up. I want to say this game is very atmospheric and i love the idea you have here @wetbox like having a ship a destination and managing the ship to that destination. i really felt the Theme (which fitted very vell with your game :clap:) almost held you back.

The visuals and audio is also impressiv for a 72 hour game, the ending sound track was very nice

My ship i call it skySword :frog: Size dosen't matter @moffkalast :frog: GGSkySword.PNG

Train Hustle by Howard Duong 2018-08-15T20:27:50Z

is it just me or dose the difficulty shoot up at station 6 ? maybe i should just kick everyone off before :frog:. I nice comical twist on the Theme GG.

Space Depot by Laien Pathfinder 2018-08-14T13:09:17Z

The game play is kind bugged, colliders are messed up and i kept dying for seemingly no reason. But when the game worked it was quite enjoyable with the beautiful music(with space ship sounds turned off :frog:). I was hoping for a better presence of the theme, but attaching it to the story is at least something.

Graphics well the 3d effect mixed with the 2d planet Was really cool. But this in my opinion pulled you down :frog: Hmmm.PNG I have seen this planet before and well :frog: :gun:

OVERKILL by earnso 2018-08-13T14:22:27Z

Game was to simple for my taste, The use of theme is very good, event tough the corpses kept falling trough he ground( for me atlaset). The visuals are Very cool, i am missing some animations but hey 48 hours i get it.

High Factory by Jima 2018-08-13T12:35:40Z

Making the first few items was cool, Visually very pleasing VERY COOL missing some sounds but hey i didnt even add any so 48 houers am i right.

I give it 19 :clap:s I am Doin IT.PNG

Quantum Abyss by Delightfullymad 2018-08-14T12:27:51Z

The was interesting , but then i figured out that astrology is OP and solved the game quickly. The game was very confusing at first, these type games needs some kind of tutorial that explains mechanics and careful balanced, but keeping in mind that his as made in 48 hours i am impresse and it was enjoyable Well done !

OP astrology Quantum.png

NanoMaze by drnoir 2018-08-13T14:03:17Z

WE DID IT Noir :frog: :gun: This game is probably the most visualy impressiv game i have seen so far, and the music. As a Gamer when presented with a game i will always try to break the game, and i broke yours in about 1 min :frog:. YOU see when you jump you can see the Exit lights :frog:LUL.png but out of respect for you i choose not to do it, and completed your game. it was cool. I did miss a Theme however :japanese_goblin:. For a game made in 72 hours this is very cool .I give this game 28 :clap: s WP man

Tight Rooms by Aszu 2018-08-13T19:45:21Z

This is a fantastic game with the theme in mind, controls are solid and the audio is very cool. Very rudimentary graphics but when you only have 48 hours tough decision has to be made. The variation of the type of room traps was a really nice surprise but sometimes felt pointless(steering you to much) but again 48 hours cant make it flawless. Solid game 32 :clap:s

Forkin' It Up by Eric Smith 2018-08-13T12:06:30Z

This was a was a very cool game, the controls are very smooth once you get used to them and VERY Cool by using the mouse to steer insted of the standard ways. I was a little confused as to what to do even tough the your description tells me but the Receive and Send pallets area dosent actually spawn pallets and the hit boxes are deep inside the tunnel areas, once i figured that out the game play was smooth.

The visual fit very vell with the game. 48 houer i am impressed

The sound hahah is that you going over to the darkside :imp:? What you have is really good even tough you missing some.

For a Game made in 48 houers All ALONE this game is Cool i give it 24 :clap: GJ ERIC SMITH

backSpace-X by omercanbalandi 2018-08-13T13:39:58Z

Game it self is solid, Unbalanced(Heal Is OP) to ez, but 48 hours its Good.Unkilleable.PNG

But i am missing the theme here, is it the rocks ? or did i just make that for you :japanese_goblin: ? this is 6 :clap:s.

The Walls by craigmc08 2018-08-13T15:41:51Z

I have nothing more to add, i had the same issues like discrabied in the posted above. I want to give some extra :clap: s For the UI, very impressiv and the use of the Theme as very cool how you tied to the game play. For a game made in 48 hours ,this is a enjoyable game i give this game 27 :clap:s WP man

The Gauntlet by angelofdeath1000 2018-08-13T15:17:17Z

OMG, i love hard games, i love this game but i need atlaset 1 check point bro. I cant Get PAST THIS To Fast To tight.png

The game is Solid, Controls are smooth after about 30 tries i was able to speedrun all the way to the death room but there is where i met the first problem. The collierers are weird buddy, sometimes i just die i assume its because some part of me hit a spikes or red field but its hard to, how do i say this "FEEL" how big i am, you know what i am saying ? The lighting in this game is Beautiful really gives me a warm feel with some Spikes on the side :upside_down: Well done @angelofdeath1000

Armageddon by Swess 2018-08-15T15:47:27Z

Most of the LD games i have player never seame to use the Theme well, But this game has a very cool take on running out of space. The game is very well made but the balance can seams a little off( water grenades :frog: :gun:) this type of game Screams for mouse controls and stack able/ storeable water. I was trying really hard to aim my extinguisher at times to grab another extinguisher engulfed in flames but the controls just got in my way just needed that extra bit of aim. The addition of music/sound and art is a real big + But the real winner for me, in your game is the use of the THEME very cool way of implementing to the game play Well done @swess

Top score i got was 2327 i think was a little hard to see with your font. my Strat was hold a position with a lot of extinguishers and tornado spray :frog:, but bad RNG can lead to low spawns so most of the time i ended opp RUNNING OUT OF SPACE :japanese_goblin: :frog: :gun: OMG.png

Never run out of SPACE: a ZIP folders journey by Swini 2018-08-12T22:40:25Z

My dude your Game File is not working, i think you renamed the exe and the Data folder separate names. The folder and file needs to have the same name. cover look cool tough

I played your game its looks VERY cool, And the sound Was cool but got a little to high the boss fell off the platform when he was at 1 HP :frog::gun:. But WHERE IS THE THEME MY DUDE? i give it 5 :clap: out of 10

Box Me Up by RustyCrow 2018-08-13T13:15:49Z

Games TODAY are to EZ guys :japanese_goblin: . you guys are lucky i added 3HP AND 3sec invulnerability state even tough i didn't have time to Display(UI) these things :frog: :gun:. I am Glad you guys liked my game cooldude38 hakro swini

Box Me Up by RustyCrow 2018-08-13T14:32:00Z

Hahah you would really like them if i set them up correctly, i sadly didn't have time :japanese_goblin:

Box Me Up by RustyCrow 2018-08-13T16:46:11Z

@aszu I was not able to include audio, i have never made audio before so i underestimated the time it would take to code in and create. As for the controls i guess it just comes down to the person :frog:

Box Me Up by RustyCrow 2018-08-17T11:58:13Z

Sorry for the late reply my dudes, been busy with other stuff :frog::gun:

@nick-rafalski @korso this being my first jam its nice to hear that my choice of focusing on gameplay payed off. I am really frustrated that i didn't push my self harder to give you guys the UI and Audio that the players of my game dessverre i promise i will do better next time i Jam.

@wetbox I original wanted this to be kind of a endless game kind of thing, the higher you got the more points but due to time constraints i was unable to make it and was forced to put inn a last minute Exit(so bad art HA). So when you say its very repayable it warms my soul :ghost: , thank you so much for playing my game 2x :clap:

This Jam i have learned from feedback and playing other games that even the simplest of sound and UI go a very long way. Spending time on features that you cant 100% implement is a waste of time. Dont mess with code/ moving things right before deadline. Prepare before the jam so you dont waste valuable time installing or reading tutorials :frog: :gun:. hopefully one day will be able to share a full game with the people that played my first game. Thank you all for playing my game :video_game: :gun: :frog:

I will be Gone for the next few days, so my replies and reviews will slow down from this point forward.

Party Simulator by KotoriYousan 2018-08-14T14:15:13Z

The game looks cool and i like the way you used the theme but the game needs more polish in order to feel the effect of it. When testing lose condition i started to spam the boxes but did not lose, i later figured out that you need to wait and let the people close in on you in order for you to lose, so you instructions was a little unclear. You made a game in 48 hours well done @kotoriyousan :frog:

Continuum by Hakro 2018-08-13T12:48:26Z

First Try, can i get a :clap: for that?.The sound for me was really good the music superb .The game is nice simple ans sweet, probably one of the most Legit comp entries. You are a very Honorable Man Hakro-senpai i give it 38 :clap: s

Return of the Sea by coolDude38 2018-08-13T13:07:22Z

Wow i am very impressed that this was made in 48 hours, Very COOl cooldude38. I could have misunderstood some stuff but sometimes my tiles wouldn't place.I am looking past the UI and sound but the game seemed unbalanced but again 48 Hours, I liked your use of the Theme very topical. Gonna give this 39 :clap: s WP cooldude38

Populistic Optimization by Genetic Selection by erikkire 2019-04-29T18:04:20Z

This game was a very unique game, the art style and audio really complement this "sad" world. I was really struggling to get past the aggressive creatures stage. I have 1 problem which might just be me but its your choice of stats meter style of the creatures, i struggle to see which is good or bad. Other then that a very enjoyable game. I would take this further.Stuck.PNG

Bloodmage by loadsofmana 2019-04-29T15:53:31Z

Very cool game :clap: the abilities where cool, But the enemies was very easy to :cheese:, maybe a enemy that would counter ranged attacks :frog: ? but i get it 48 hours right :frog: . The Environmental Hazards was the real STAR in this game, The DROP portion gave me a really nostalgic feeling. Also is there something after the boss ? i got no GG message or a path forward ? Bloodmage is a perfect fit for this :potato: theme so well done mate :clap: Boss Rekt.PNG

Trade Away by Nelios 2019-05-01T14:44:02Z

@nomus the controls are weird just use left click to move around, though so as well. The game is interesting, the visuals are really cool, smooth nice to look at, it is to bad like you say its unbalanced. Also the movement part seems pointless(also gets bugged when you get to the screens cant move once you click in). As for the theme, i think it fits nicely. I do appreciate the active selling and buying portion of the game, it gives me something to do while the other stuff is working. Balance in these typs of game is core, that's where the challenge lies Numbers game.PNG

Risky Life by neowhoru 2019-04-30T20:44:26Z

Man that wall jump really cought me off guard. I went for the max speed upgrade all the time, it made the game a really fun precision plattformer. I also respect the art, i appreciate the death animation :frog:.Solid LD44 Entry dude Well DONE .GG.PNG

Robots in Hell by Andreadbx 2019-04-29T20:48:50Z

Very nice sound design, its relaxing which is how tower def games should be. I wish the theme was more actively used insted of just a substitution for gold but this years theme was very bad(IMO) so i get the easy way out. The visuals of these game is very strong but the UI could use some more work, it needs to be more intuitiv(make the whole image a button) its confusing to have the label on the side be the way you purchase your towers. There is also a element of balance that i found lacking, in a tower defense i need a reason to use the other towers, atlest give the player the option to spawn the next wave so i can make it harder/quicker. All in all you got a good foundation of a tower defense game :clap: DERP.PNG

Salaryman by niterich 2019-04-29T16:30:42Z

I felt the lack of a challenge, a simple high score or days gone by. Something needed to telle me that i am doing something :rofl:. But the game has a interesting concept og management and just controlling your life. The audio did get bugged but its a game made in 48 houers so i didn't really mind. Well done mate you made it through LD 44 CHILL.PNG

Salaryman by niterich 2019-04-29T17:16:53Z

@niterich thats a good point ! :rofl: still dosent change anything thought hahah

Rashness by Saering 2019-04-29T16:58:14Z

The visuals are truly mind blowing, 48 hours you must be a pixel artist trough the bone :clap: . The game is solid if you play by the rules , but the boss can be manipulated into a very easy attack loop, in other words you can :cheese: the boss. There is no spoiler filter so if you haven't played dont read next sentence :frog:. If you run away from the boss he chases you and dose a 360 attack from a long range. There are many ways to deal with this and you only have 48 Hours so i won legit way :frog:. 1 More thing is the spam button to attack,dont think anyone want to do that especially in a boss fight where you will die alot :frog: :gun:. Great submission. WIN.PNG

Wanted by Stefan Jovanovic 2019-04-30T13:11:08Z

Woaw DUDE, Good to see you back in LD44 :frog: :clap:. This games Visuals are sick dude :clap: i might just steal that Shader Mhuahahah :japanese_goblin:. For the game its solid entry, very clean. The sound can be a little loud but i am gonna blame Unity on that :frog:. I hope next time we get a better theme, this year was to constrictive. YO, has anyone beaten Geronimo ??? its Impossible, I demand Proof that you have @stefan-jovanovic :gun: :frog:

I'll be waiting by 314owen 2019-04-30T20:21:47Z

see this would be a true sad story if he sacrificed his dick, the things men do to get laid :frog:. The game was a pretty solid plattformer, i was speedrunning the game at the end by comboing all the moves. i was hoping for a challenge utilizing all of the abilities but 48 hours i get it. The intro art was very cool, the rest of the game was missing proper animation. All in all a solid LD44 game.

TheMechanizedHero by RustyCrow 2019-04-29T12:45:26Z

@gideon @erkberg thank you guys for playing, i had more enemies on the list but had to scope the whole game down to make the deadline. I also felt that the balance of the game is wonkey but the THE TIME :cry:. Man this THEME was really hard to work with took way to long to get an idea.

TheMechanizedHero by RustyCrow 2019-04-29T16:11:52Z

@notb AW SHIEETTT DUDE i just played your game That Water is mind blowing. Thx for playing. @loadsofmana i wish i had more time dude I HAD PLANS :frog: :gun: But insted i made like Pause menues and shit that people properly never use :cry:. I make it a point to make it easy to exit my game :rofl: i dont know why that is important to me. Thank you all for playing :clap:

TheMechanizedHero by RustyCrow 2019-04-29T18:07:21Z

@ninjacatz Thats the spirit :frog: :clap: @mia-devs For sure, music is definitely my weakest point right now. Thx for playing

TheMechanizedHero by RustyCrow 2019-04-29T20:13:36Z

@mrschlag2 there should be in the bottom left, Are you playing on Mac Or Lynux ?

TheMechanizedHero by RustyCrow 2019-04-30T11:51:46Z

@stefan-jovanovic My MAN good to see you back in LD44 :frog: !!!

@marcmagus Sorry about that dude The Linux and Mac versions are untested. I wasn't originally going to release for them but i thought what the heck. I will Re-upload them and see if that changes anything. Sorry for you inconvenience.

TheMechanizedHero by RustyCrow 2019-05-01T12:10:01Z

@vinegarlove Did you have all the UI and no crash on death ? That's really good to hear, i re uploaded after fiddling with some settings. I had never built for Linux and Mac before so didn't know quite what i was doing :frog:

@owlycode Man it really means a lot to me when people say they like my pixel art :cry:, I definitely need to find a way to make music, Audio has always been my weakest point.

@commanderstitch DUDE I also felt that when i was playtesting, the last minutts i was trying to figure out a way to make the player NOT die if he kills the last enemy with his last HP.

This years Theme was very :frog: :gun: i feel my game meets the theme goals but i understand arguments against it to. you all make wonderful points that i will take to heart next time i make a LD submission :frog: :clap: .

TheMechanizedHero by RustyCrow 2019-05-01T12:10:24Z

I want to thank everyone again for taking the time to play my little game. I will be going back to my regular schedule so if i am slow with replies i am sorry. See ya all next LD :frog:

Life is Strange by HowlingShame 2019-04-29T17:14:26Z

A every smooth game, i neede a second to understand but i got thereBOX WIN.PNG

The game has a very cool flow to it, the rooms transition very smooth and the style of going in and out makes me want to try somthing with that kind of mechanic. I also appreciate your effort in the option to MUTE the Audio(no disrespect to your sound :frog:) but i feel menus are important not to constraint/ force people in your game.

Xtrem Soviet Builder by Dukes 2019-04-29T17:31:56Z

Woaw, this was a real thinking game, very surprising. These Pico-8 games always surprise me with the amount of stuff people can make with it. I have nothing bad to say about this solid game. Fits well with the horrible theme well done dude. :clap:

Blood Money by SuperGamersGames 2019-04-29T18:55:58Z

:rofl: those kids didn't stand a Chance. This LDs Theme was really bad and i can understand your pain, i wish i could do something with the Lives but then it would turn into every other game. This theme was really constricting but i enjoyed your game, the Start screen/ reset screen was really cool you should save that idea. Give yourself a :clap: for completing LD44 :frog:

Memories of a Captain by OwlyCode 2019-04-29T19:24:56Z

Damn dude, this game was intens. You dont become a hero by making easy decision. The effects of these game really immersed me into the whole space ship through asteroid belt. Even when reaching the space station it felt good how it came at you only to come to a slow halt, Very cool :clap:INTENS.PNG

AVE Knight by NinjaCatz 2019-04-29T18:31:11Z

Zip inside another ZIP Willam you crazy :frog: A solid plattformer dude, art is grate but maybe differentiate the style on what you can and can not jump on(this probably just Jam limitations). Also the text needs to be controlled by the player, like just let me click E for next msg insted of waiting :rofl: . I would also suggest allow the player more control over his jump, right now dosent matter if i tap or hold spacebar i go max height, i just couldn't get the precision jump needed to get past these damn :rat: :gun: NOT Shovel knight.PNG Also love the shovel knight reference :frog: :clap:

Fair n Square by DaniDev 2019-04-29T14:44:27Z

That music really tied the game well together dude, and you can never go wrong with classic 2D Battle Gameplay :frog:.HighScore.PNG

Suicide Slime Arena by Abitscared 2019-04-30T21:16:04Z

The visuals are very smooth, i love the main character. The attention to details dose not go unnoticed, but then again i am a little pixel artist my self so :frog: I am not sure if there is supposed to be audio in this but i didn't hear any sound. My only problem was the ability to reset. It needs to be quick if you are going to die alot quickly. I would maybe even dedicate a button to it. But your game has a type of progression so i can see how that may case a issue. All around a every good entry to you first LD, Welcome to the family DUDE :frog: :gun:

Super Annoying Escort Mission by Gideon 2019-04-29T15:14:07Z

Woaw DUDE, this made in 48 hours is INSANE and this wasn't Annoying at ALL :clap:, i was always engaged in clicking and moving. I cheesed the first level however since i didn't understand you where supposed to buy soldier Get Rekt AI.PNG

But the second Stage really Shined dude !! i am gonna appreciate Box selection from now on but i kinda liked the micro management. GREAT GAME wish there where more then 2 level :frog: HOLD the LINE.PNG

Also WEB version is very unstable (chrome) maybe remove it from the list or people might get turned away

Collecting Really Nice Cats! by cheesepencil 2019-05-01T15:56:57Z

Damn kids, :baby: :gun: :older_woman: GET OF ME LAWN!!. The sound effect rally made this a funny game to play. My only problem is why use the 1 key you cant spam to pick up the cats :frog: :gun: , damn sticky keys been blocking players since 1995 dude.

Demon Apprentice by c0d3d 2019-04-29T16:07:06Z

Strong game, the sound effect :rofl: perfect, the oof kid better watch out :frog: . I think the mouse movement based melee was something very interesting, i hope you take it a step further and add som momentum based dmg or something, very cool system :clap:. You made it through LD44 -- YOU WIN! DING.PNG

Leech Weapon by Kiddy 2019-04-30T20:03:39Z

Haha the lore was very cool, I have a similar game but melee and no upgrades :frog:. I dont have much bad to say about the game other then 1) go with 1 style, use either pixel art or whatver els, mixing the 2 didn't seem right. 2) have the zombies spawn from all sides to avoid stuff like Kiting.Zombienation 2.PNG A solid entry dude.

Håtvåessofyra by patetfisk 2019-04-30T21:06:15Z

Man, so far the best audio. Most games have atlaset 1 sound that is way to sharp or loud. Makes me wanna guess that you are some kind of audio designer :frog:. The game play is solid the shooting seemed constrictive, you have a whole keyboard to use, but then again you did a NES controller support so i guess that would be a problem map :frog:. And let me be the first to welcome you to LUDUM DARE :fireworks:. Awesome game, well done for your first entry :frog::clap:

A Fishermans Friendly Island Builder by Lombax 2019-10-07T13:34:23Z

I cant rate the game since i didn't participate in this LD but i can at least leave a a comment on your game my friend :frog: .

I can definitely see a lot of potential in a game where the player builds them self up from fishing / gathering, expanding your civ and gear as you go along. I hope you keep this idea in the back of your mind and expand on it some day.

As for the game in its current state, you already know what the problem is based on the desc so no point in repeating it, but i didn't get any bugs in my play through(Not anything i noticed at least).

The visuals where fitting (top down pixel art), if you do continue with this idea keep the art style.

As for your take on the Theme, it was a pretty cool twist(build a civilization from nothing). I wish you had more time to create the full picture.

You have a solid idea for a game here, and with art style that really compliments that idea. But the idea is to big for a LD. I think you learned a lot of valuable lessons in this LD and i hope to see you use them in the next LD.

Good work on your LD enter my friend :clap::frog:
