Ireally loved your entry: the graphics and the music are really good, the gameplay is fun, the game is hard without being too hard. The powerups are just a bit useless. Well done !

Ireally loved your entry: the graphics and the music are really good, the gameplay is fun, the game is hard without being too hard. The powerups are just a bit useless. Well done !
The game lags a lot, the gameplay is not obvious at all. Still, the graphics are nice.
I'm a big fan. Big up for the graphics, the french singing and the fun behind !
Nice job, too bad it's unplayable with a touchpad however.
It was fun, the "can't go up" system is pretty nice. It lacks animation, but still, it's a fun game.
I really liked the music for some reason ! Good job ! It remided be of Steam World Dig. Good job, even if it lacks some sort of ending :)
I like the music and the graphics, but the physics are very buggy ! Nice idea however.
Funny idea, the gameplay is a bit weird however. Still, the graphics and the audio are nice.
Nice concept, I like the whole "inversed gravity" thing with the water, and the execution is well done.
Nice game, the ending message was a little weird,it's too bad you didn't have time to make us see the tree. Still, a good take on the theme.
Simple concept, but well executed !
Nice game, a little bit too hard even in easy mode, but the idea overall is fun !
Doesn't work for me, the window opens, sets a weird sound, and quits :(
(Windows 8 not updated, XNA Redist installed, Athlon II X3 460, Geforce 8800 GTS, some really slow hard drive)
Joseph Miller => Thanks ! The players are supposed to be at least 10 blocks away from the goal, it's random, so I guess you were just not lucky !
pht59x => Please make sure you're using a recent enough version of Firefox. It didn't work on Firefox 22 for me for example (because of missing window.requestAnimationFrame)
I've added a polyfill for browsers that do not support window.requestAnimationFrame, so it should work on more browsers now.
You didn't think at people with azerty keyboards (but we can't blame you :) ).
I liked the idea, but the transitions were really too long ! The music was nice. It's a good game overall :)
Nice concept, well executed, I really liked the graphics :)
The controls are quite weird to understand and there is some polishing issues (like the game over text or some collision bug), but the graphics and the music is not bad. So, maybe you would need to work a bit more on the gameplay ? Still, a good start.
Nice execution, not so innovative but still a good game, well done !
I liked the concept, it made me laugh a bit ! The graphics are really neat. Well done !
Good try, even if the controls seems quite weird on my computer
Nice for 48h, even if I have found the game mechanics to be a little bit weird.
The game is fun, a little bit short. It kind of lacks explanations on what to do however :). Still, good job.
Pretty fun game, the game is fast-paced, the gameplay is well done, it just lacks music. I enjoyed playing it ! :)
I wa
s not expecting this !
I liked the pitch, the player movements and the controls are quite buggy, and it's hard to find what we have to do. But there is some nice idea behind !
Nice graphics, nice audio, nice animations ! The game lacks a bit of fun, but good execution, the bubble are nice. The level design is cool too, good job.
The file is a bit too big, the gameplay is a little too slow, but big up for the art, it is really awesome !
I got blocked quite fast (but that's because I'm bad I guess :D), but the game is nice. I liked the intro (even if the little guy seemed weird ?) !
Nice game, even if the camera is a little bit too small in my opinion. The game is a bit frustrating (but maybe I'm just bad ahah), but overall it is very good !
The collisions are a bit weird, and it's frustrating in the second part of the game. But your game has a clear end, it's simple but efficient.
The idea is nice, but the game is a bit laggy. Impressive that you used a Java backend.
Pretty cool game ! I really liked your take on the theme, and the music is pretty nice.
I liked the ending :). Too bad it's missing some music !
I liked the graphics, but the game clearly lacks more gameplay elements !
I was not expecting the fact that you can not dig up ! The concept is nice, and well executed. It just lacks water/lava physics to be perfect ! The music is quite catchy too.
I have to say, this game is really cool ! The game is simple, the art (especially the music) is very nice. Congrats !
I just loved the concept ! It took me a long time to figure out the last part (but that's only because I try to look at the
I just loved the concept ! It took me a long time to figure out the last part (but that's only because I try to look at the actual source code I guess)
Nice arcade game ! The mechanic is fun (the fact that enemies you don't see can touch you is a bit frustrating but well). Congrats !
I liked the graphics, the gameplay is engaging, even if it lacks music. However, the game is a little bit too hard for me :)
Interesting mechanics, even if I found the title screen to be the most funny part of the game !
Interesting concept, even if it's more a proof a concept than anything !
Nice gameplay ideas, I liked the music, the game is pretty good (a bit frustrating quite quickly however), and the mood is clearly set. The metaphorical take on the theme is good ( Pretty nice execution, congrats !
I have to say, the game was fun, i loved the pitch ! You made me laugh.
It was nice, the controls are a bit weird but overall it is a good idea.
Really impressive, the game is smooth, efficient, the levels are quite nicely made, well done !
I really love your take on the theme ! Your game is really fun to play, I didn't expect that at all.
The OSX app won't open on my Macbook pro (Yosemite)
I liked the game, the concept is really cool and the execution is great (especially the graphics, too bad there's no audio) but:
- I kind of disliked the fact that there are ads, that's not the point of LD for me.
- It's sad that you didn't give the source
Whoah, that's a great idea.
The player tends to do strange stuff when I press more than one arrow key at once, and the physics/mechanics of the moving "ball" in the room seemed really weird to me (I tried to use it like in 2D Zeldas, to make it a wall but it just got pushed again ?)
mtinkerhess -> You can shoot without being shot actually :)
shubshub -> Thanks for the feedback anyway, I'll reduce the volume of the sounds !
rabbit -> Thanks for the feedback anyway !
madmaw -> Yeah, the prediction/networking code for the lasers is kind of buggy unfortunately (it was my first take on a fast-paced multiplayer game :/)
Made me think at Risk, but still fun and efficient !
Maybe don't toggle full screen on first play ? Especially since there's nothing on screen telling me how to exit full screen :)
I didn't see the screenshots, so I wasn't expecting the snowman thing at all !
So, a mix of boulderdash and evoland, that's funny. Good job :)
Nice action shooter game ! I really really liked the music and the Binding of Isaac feeling and the fact that you control two people.
Ahah, the second time I played i ended up locked in a small 5x1 corridor !
Good job however, the game is kind of fun, even if the fog of war is too narrow for me. I liked the music
Ahah, your server/client protocol is fun. I liked the idea, even if I couldn't play a lot since there was no other players.
Ahah the tutorial at the begining is a bit slow, it made me shoot way too many snowball before the game began :).
Simple concept, but the execution is nice (I won't rate the graphics for obvious reasons).
Nice game, the mechanics are simple, but efficient, and the execution is great. Nice graphics too.
The game over is a bit frustrating sometimes ! But overall, I liked your take on the theme (I guessed the game screen is something like a smartphone screen ?), and the execution is cool. Good job.
There's a typo in the window name :)
It's an interesting concept, but sometimes I really don't understand how I end up losing.
The game is a bit harsh on the player: I died on the second level pretty fast from the enemy, and the tutorial screen is too slow (it was okay the first time but don't show it again when we die !)
However, I liked the "homemade" feel of the graphics, the sword usage just feels great too, the joke with the name is nice and I liked how you used the theme.
Nice take on the theme :)
I can of don't understand why it's a RPG and not an action game, but well. The screen is really small on my macbook pro retina on windows, but I it's not your fault I guess !
Still, some nice ideas, it lacks a bit of graphics but the gameplay is nice nontheless.
I'm quite bad at your game, but still, the game is fun, maybe a little bit frustrating sometimes, but fun most of the time :)
The game kinda lack interactivity (maybe I missed something on the controls ?). The graphics and the general idea of the insects following you is cool however.
Simple idea but quite efficient, and not bad for a good one.
It would have been cool if there was sound effects and a game over screen.
I wish you thought at us, the poor guys with azerty keyboards :) . Too bad there is no sfx, the game has some good ideas and the graphics are very cool (and I liked the weird-color-blood-on-the-floor).
That's a great concept (on mobile it would be perfect I guess) ! The difficulty curve is nice. Just make sure the page is centered around the game a little bit more, I had to scroll on my 1280*800 hiDPI screen.
Except from the fact that you restart from the start when you die, the game is nice. The gameplay is original
The first time I won instinctively, then I understood what was happening. Quite a nice game !
Quite a fun game, reminded me of a Bejelewed with a much better-thought gameplay with the ladders and the snakes and the annoying things-with-spikes-on-it.
I loved the end. Nice creative use of WebGL/Three.js, i liked the game effects, at first I was thinking "why is there always the same level with the same gameplay and graphics", but the road to the end of the game is pretty cool. Nice CRT effect too
