LD34 — Two Button Controls / Growing (11)

Grow Stuff by kitcar2000 2015-12-21T21:06:00

I really liked this game! The animation of the bucket's little legs running sold it for me :-)

My one suggestion if you keep working on this would be to focus more on the puzzle aspect (as in figuring out which plant to water first in order to get to the next one) rather than the platforming aspect of making difficult jumps.

The concept of getting and carrying water around to grow things is really good and I hope you expand this!

Buying Time by Shide 2015-12-21T20:38:00

I liked the phone-ringing animation.

As others have said, it's hard to judge the effects of your actions without more feedback. I was put off by the fact that the only women's voices in the game were my secretary and then my wife and mother who annoyingly interrupted my work.

The amazingly clunky 2-button platformer! by JaytleBee 2015-12-21T20:23:00

Neat application of the theme, although I found it a little too frustrating to really get into.

Cutesadoopsi by PizzaPranks 2015-12-21T20:21:00

I really liked the hand-drawn feel to this.

Cactus Simulator by Jeroen Kappé 2015-12-14T21:54:00

I laughed. I died. I was a cactus.

1minuteBaby by jeroenwimmers 2015-12-14T21:44:00

I like this! So good to see unique takes in jams.

Don't Press Them by CodeNMore 2015-12-14T21:39:00

Nice entry! Loved the jumping blue blob animation.

Xtreme Crop Duster Simulator '82 by rjhelms 2015-12-14T21:33:00

This is excellent. Easily the best entry I've played so far! Such a great job setting the mood and marrying the gameplay with the visuals and sound. Well done!

Bouncing Knight by Multiplexor 2015-12-14T21:23:00

I had fun flying around this game! Really enjoyed the character sprites.

Waku Waku Buffet by JD557 2015-12-14T21:18:00

Really enjoyed this! Simple concept and well-executed. Great tension between pooping and eating.

Cavern Climber by fashionbatman 2015-12-14T21:10:00

Nice entry! With a game like this where you die a bunch of times, it'd be really nice to have a quicker restart process.

LD33 — You are the Monster (17)

Dinosawr Roflstomp by theholychicken 2015-08-29T21:17:00

Yes. Yes yes yes! Please take this idea further after LD!

The Vacuum of Space by Josh Riley 2015-08-26T13:54:00

Really enjoyed the music and dragging the little people around! Couldn't figure out if the colors had any significance though.

Conscience of a Crythrope by pighead10 2015-08-26T13:42:00

Neat idea. I'm interested to see how it feels if the transformations were all time based instead of movement-based.

Adolf no Baito! by PixelPerfect 2015-08-26T13:31:00

Not funny.

Antimon by ViKing Games 2015-08-24T22:19:00

Well done. Really enjoyed it, and a neat take on this type of fighting game.

No Pictures Please by Quetzakol 2015-08-24T16:17:00

Good! Difficult! Good!

The March of the Dropped Band by Dukio 2015-08-24T16:14:00

I laughed. Well done :-)

Fortior by rudra 2015-08-24T16:09:00

Really enjoyed this one. Agree with hobblygobbly that the text should be more legible, and I couldn't get past the vertical part on level 4 either, but maybe that was intentional :-)

Explodasaur by DeusOpus 2015-08-24T16:01:00

Hectic-ness worked really well, and I appreciate the light tone. Good music, too!

Small gripe: Mexico is not "sorta 'merica."

Over your dead body by andreymust19 2015-08-24T15:57:00

Error :-(

Monster's Meal by Sina 2015-08-24T15:56:00

Kept crashing for me, too :-( I tried to see what message was displayed, but the game exited too quickly.

TrippyL by Lovro Kalinovčić 2015-08-24T15:54:00

Really liked the way the instructions were presented, and the lighting was a cool touch! Couldn't get past the final level!

Fear me by joe 2015-08-24T15:47:00

The blinking eyes are such a nice touch. Especially when you see them glowing under the bed!

But I couldn't figure out how to scare anyone :-(

Wake the Monster by Zerkruemler 2015-08-24T15:41:00

This awesome. The change in perspective is a really good idea! Nicely done :-)

Rebellion of the Slimes by someone9999 2015-08-24T15:35:00

I laughed :-) Cute slimies.

An usual Day In a Troll's life by ajopart 2015-08-24T15:32:00

nice little start to an endless runner! the angry mob flat sprite made me laugh

Monsters In The Woods by snakezito 2015-08-24T15:22:00

Congrats on your first Ludum Dare! I liked the monsters' run animation :-)

LD26 — Minimalism (56)

ALPHBT by eli 2013-05-07T19:53:00

I really like the concept of building bridges toward your goal. Well done :)

Conundrum by ashmorefur 2013-05-07T19:42:00

Simple yet fun :) Only comment would be to eliminate words repeating

The Minimalist by MalphasWats 2013-05-07T18:04:00

I just really like that you're creating things while playing this game :) That you BUILT this game on your ipad is crazy impressive! And also a little plain old crazy, too.

Colorobellum by TheMightyComp 2013-05-07T17:58:00

This was quite lovely :) I think the synching between the music and game worked out perfectly. My only "want" would be for something "bigger" to happen when you get hit.

Occam's Razor by Hayawi 2013-05-06T23:32:00

I liked the crazy-ass mood present from the "HI! Hello. Hi. HELLO!" to the very last screen.

Subtract by SlamBlasta 2013-05-06T23:24:00

I loved pretty much everything about this game :) Beautiful. Congrats!

Life of Colonies by Overv 2013-05-06T23:19:00

I found the sound perfectly done.

Beeat by cambrian_era 2013-05-06T23:03:00

I LOVED the look of this game! I think I'd prefer it w/keyboard controls and nix the potato scribbles :)

Conversion by Spiridios 2013-05-03T21:20:00

Immersing and difficult :)

Minimal Race by daniel2357 2013-05-03T21:12:00

This game just has a nice, easy, and happy feel to it which I liked :)

SUMOMIMAL by Conve 2013-05-03T21:07:00

Liked the concept!

MiniJump by JayPC000 2013-05-03T21:00:00

Loved the whole look of this game :)

Bug Hunting by kannas 2013-05-03T20:58:00

Once you release your inhibitions and start going REALLY REALLY fast and firing nonstop it gets really fun! Took me a bit to realize that, though :)

mesh by nseward 2013-05-03T20:53:00

REALLY novel idea! I quite like it :) The controls are pretty tough to master, but it's a really fun game. Nicely done!

Minimal Defense by Xelanon 2013-05-03T20:40:00

I really liked the mechanics - really simple and yet combined in a novel way! To make the point/ammo correlation feel stronger, I'd think about starting with a set amount of ammo and dying when you run out. Nicely done!

Steve Can't Zen by DaanVanYperen 2013-05-03T20:26:00

This was amazing.

One fine morning our machines are gonna cut us down by netmute 2013-05-03T20:19:00

I just died and died and died and kept on dying :)

Path Breaker by kyru 2013-05-03T20:14:00

I really enjoyed this! Thanks. I would love to see a few difficulty changes to make it a little more accessible (more simple tutorial levels, maybe slower blocks overall, etc.) Nice job!

Triple Minimum by BenWhi 2013-05-03T20:04:00

I REALLY really liked the first chapter. Great mood and feel. Really nicely done there. The transition to the second was almost impossible to stay alive through, and I wish I could've stayed on that chapter w/out being sent back to the beginning.

Tidy Runner by Ooya 2013-05-03T20:01:00

The jump animation made me smile :)

A by infernet89 2013-05-03T19:59:00

Liked it, but if you're going to remake Tetris you've got to get the controls EXACTLY right :)

The Blind MazzzZZZZe of Colors by fr_automatik 2013-05-03T19:46:00

Neat idea! One change that would've helped me would be to have the player turn whenever they HIT "left" instead of holding it down. Sometimes it felt like I turned too quickly (although I'm not sure if that's what's really going on :)

The Rules Are Simple... by saampahlavan 2013-05-03T19:36:00

Nice work, Saam! I did indeed enjoy

Running With Swords by eteeski 2013-04-29T22:35:00

Spinning the arms is totally fun! But be warned, this game is hard.

Zombie Blocks Attack by hgouveia 2013-04-29T22:30:00

Whoo, is this hard! I liked the limited view

Missile Operator by tslefh 2013-04-29T22:10:00

Why am I bombing everything??

NoBility by GFM 2013-04-29T22:01:00

Solid little platformer :) I liked the animations and the sound, too. Nice job!

Darkness by Liikeaturtle 2013-04-29T21:57:00

I liked the mood of this game :)

a-mazing TowerDefense by Zelosfan 2013-04-29T21:53:00

Definitely was confusing at first, but neat and nicely done.

Squares In Space by Mozzo 2013-04-29T21:47:00

Congrats on finishing this! It's cute :) But I did fly through a wall and get stuck in the corner on level 3...

climbing 208 feet up the ruin wall by Porpentine 2013-04-29T20:14:00

love love love. so fucking Porpentine it's amazing. which is to say, "voice"

CLRS by acatcalledfrank 2013-04-29T19:59:00

Very very nicely done :) Difficulty ramps up pretty quick! Or at least, fast for my skill level :P

Rpg Combat Bananaramatime by Gilvado 2013-04-29T19:55:00

I found this game well executed and well balanced (even if you didn't like the theme :) Nicely done!

Minimal Forms by Lord_X 2013-04-29T19:48:00

Really neat idea - incredible machine where you get to control ball, too :) One improvement I'd like is less sideways bounciness for more control

Ming Imah Lism the Wizard ! by Gustera 2013-04-29T19:42:00

Really well done, congrats! Only complaint is having to start at the beginning when dying... possibly restart in the same room with one less than however much health you started with last time?

beTween by Benn 2013-04-29T19:35:00

Well done :) I really like this take on the theme.

Flame Quest! by Shatteraura 2013-04-29T19:27:00

Really enjoyed the music, but it's so difficult! Would've appreciated a tutorial, guide, or intro :)

Robot Meditation by triplefox 2013-04-29T19:21:00

SO EASY I COULD PLAY IT WITH MY EYES CLOSED HAR HAR HAR HAR. Thanks for making this

MinimalistGame by hovinarri 2013-04-29T19:07:00

I do not appreciate the extra pics. Also, nothing happens when I run the .exe

Less than Shadows by Cosine 2013-04-29T19:04:00

Neat idea, and great to play something finished :) For me, the controls felt to slippery and fast, like Mario in the ice world. It made it quite hard

Tiny Runner by Jarcas Studios 2013-04-29T19:02:00

Cute! TIP to future players: Just zoom in with your browser and it works great

MinimalJump by Xatulu 2013-04-29T18:58:00

Good work! Agreed that the game would be simpler & better w/out the dead ends, but I love the music :)

Timothy's Adventure by FenrisWolf 2013-04-29T18:53:00

I LOVE the guitar loop and don't care what anybody else says. It lends a GREAT playful feel to the whole thing. Well done :)

Garm by Lizzip 2013-04-29T18:46:00

I kind of like the lack of distinction esp. as a minimalist meditation on the pointlesness of feedback, videogames, life, love, etc.

make a binky by soerensen3 2013-04-29T18:40:00

This made me smile. Thanks for making it!

360 by ShellfishGames 2013-04-29T18:29:00

I get an error about a missing DLL file, and it won't let me open the game :(

RGBCMY by ericlass 2013-04-29T18:26:00

Enjoyed it (even with getting stuck outside the room on level 3!)

U by KEFIR 2013-04-29T18:20:00

Well done! More levels please :)

Worm outbreak! by Magewalkr 2013-04-29T18:11:00

I can't interact with it, which makes me sad... UNLESS THAT IS YOUR SUPER MINIMALIST POINT IN WHICH CASE BRAVO

Spike Line by Yorwba 2013-04-29T17:58:00

I am into this game :) Canabalt-esque

Protector by minibutmany 2013-04-29T17:26:00

This was pretty fun, and I loved the music! For me, adding a 2nd ship didn't change my strategy that much because it was too hard to focus on both ships at once.

Like Any Game by m.lagadec 2013-04-29T17:18:00

Ditto what demicercle said!

Darwinian Monsters by uprightpath 2013-04-29T17:12:00

I agree with Kinzata, it's definitely an interesting idea! As a player, I want a some more visual feedback as to what's causing what so I can better anticipate and plan moves.

Minimal Blocks! by messiano 2013-04-29T16:26:00

I really liked the music! The controls were a little too "loose" for me, which made the game really really difficult. Thightening these up and giving a clearer sense of the player's boundaries (indicating when they will fall and when they wont) would be a big help :) Thanks for sharing.

m i n i m a l i s m by SilentBunny 2013-04-29T16:18:00

I can't run this :( I get sent to your google docs folder, which only allows me to preview the items, not open the game in its own tab.

[ ] by YukonW 2013-04-29T16:12:00

I liked the look of this game - very simple and reduced the shooter to its core elements.

I would love to see this style applied to the mechanics as well- "what is it about the shooter GAME that is most essential?". Hopefully this will create a game that is as unique as the art.
