LD22 — Alone

Are We Alone? by Fiona 2011-12-23T03:55:00

Nice idea and all-around execution. I would have kept playing this for a while if it had a bit more variety in what you find on planets.

ASSAULT THE DARK FORTRESS by FrankieSmileShow 2011-12-23T00:58:00

Good fun! Impressive amount of content too.
[SPOILERS]
I had somehow forgotten the LD22 theme while starting the game. Meeting the team I started thinking about how they would work together.. and then I come outside again and their gone. Their gear just strewn about the dungeon. I felt so alone.

Companion by roBurky 2011-12-23T02:54:00

I love the graphics and interactions... I hope you keep working on this!

The Ice Maze by Fenmar 2011-12-23T02:32:00

Plays well and the later puzzles are a lot of fun to solve!
I was also reminded of those ice caves, Jahn.

Super Bad Dream by mastazavr 2011-12-23T04:40:00

I like the ray-casting flash light but am very bad at the game! Anyone have some pointers for me?

A form of monotheism by Andrew 2011-12-23T02:46:00

Nice graphics and a type of game I have never played before. I think all my Humins just walked off the edge of the map, but I still had fun.

Erased by Falkreon 2011-12-23T04:20:00

Cool concept and I also like the random level generation.
I would prefer it if combat was a bit slower - everything seemed to die in less than two seconds!

Lava Kittens by Mjiig 2011-12-23T04:02:00

Interesting idea and great job for doing it in only half the time!

Alone in Space by AleksandarDev 2011-12-24T22:49:00

I really liked the background transitions and your journal.

Tarassis by kogarou 2011-12-24T22:55:00

Really awesome concept, would love to see it developed further.

Lonebot by Patacorow 2011-12-24T23:13:00

Really good fun and nice graphics and audio. Very nice overall.

Alone on a raid by adventureloop 2011-12-24T23:15:00

I can't run this unfortunately, but I too would like a gameplay video to see what you made.

The End by 2A1S 2011-12-23T01:50:00

I couldn't get the game to run, and I reinstalled the XNA re-distributable. Shame that I could not play the game because the time-lapse was interesting.

Dead World by Saxon Douglass 2011-12-20T06:20:00

@dcfedor: I've just realised now we never say that you must put buildings in one of the four corners of the map. I have added that to the How to Play section, thanks for playing and giving great feedback!

Dead World by Saxon Douglass 2012-01-05T00:37:00

@bobboy555: My first suspicion is that your web browser isn't supported. The other option is that the resources aren't being loaded but I can't imagine why that would only happen to some people.

@easlern: Pickup/putdown is E and attack (no attack animation but does kill monsters) is SPACE. To pick something up you must be standing on it, and the attack range is quite short so you need to be almost touching for it to hit the enemy.

Friend-Bot by Zedreth 2011-12-23T03:35:00

Cool game, the music and visual style are very nice. Maybe the holes should be two blocks wide so the character won't get stuck in them sometimes?

Astronaut Alone by mnem 2011-12-23T01:21:00

The bars are quite appealing and the 3D asteroids look cool too. Having the three ores to collect was interesting and given more time could be really extended.

Lone Survivor by Pokelover980 2011-12-23T01:34:00

I don't know if there are more than six enemies, but they stopped spawning then so I assume that I was victorious :)
Great that you got a library to reuse out of it too!

Zombie Apocalypse by yokcos700 2011-12-23T03:28:00

The block spawning works well and I enjoyed crushing zombies. Would like to see harder challenges also added!

Alone in the Shadows by CireNeikual 2012-01-04T23:46:00

I had fun and the lighting looks awesome in your screenshots.
Sadly when I run it the lighting does not work correctly. Here is a screenshot of what I get:

Shame it seems to have some compatibility issues but great work!

Alone in Love by defiantburrito 2011-12-23T01:11:00

Really interesting take! I was surprised that I felt quite lonely when talking with Madison.

F_cked by kelp 2012-01-04T23:59:00

The art is awesome! I love the style. I looked through the data file and just wish I could play the game that you were planning to make.
Looking forward to your entry next LD!

AngryMisshapedGuyThing by Raz 2011-12-21T03:10:00

I liked the music and thought it was pretty funny too. Looking forward to your next LD entry!

Headphones On by ektoutie 2012-01-04T23:51:00

A video would be great for me because I don't own a Mac either.

Al One by mappum 2012-01-05T00:03:00

Daring to do multi-player for a jam and I was shocked when it worked. Well done!

Never Dance Alone Darryl by BlennosoftGames 2011-12-23T01:16:00

I like the graphics and the bonus score system is interesting.
Nice work!

The Diary by DalsGames 2011-12-23T00:32:00

I enjoyed the music and found it very moody. When I first played I didn't know how to reload and was going to say it needed more ammo too, but then I read the comment saying reload is right mouse button (and then realised that was in the game description too!). I played it again, and reloading made the game less difficult and more fun.
Hope to see more from you guys!

Split Party! by Ishisoft 2011-12-23T03:22:00

I want more. Amazing.

Lil' Zombies by eriksundqvist 2011-12-23T01:27:00

The graphics are cute and the sound effects are good. Doing positional audio is cool but also disconcerting in a 2D game.
Nice job!

LD23 — Tiny World

Bipolar by Skulls 2012-04-24T04:25:00

The second level made me rage quit.

Tiny War by Aidan 2012-04-26T07:41:00

Fun game, and the wrapping is an interesting mechanic that you executed well. I too enjoyed your use of gravity.

TinyWorldGods by colincapurso 2012-04-24T04:16:00

This is awesome, would love to see support for two-players locally.
Also, when are you releasing "They Chuck Us About For Their Sport" as a single?

LD26 — Minimalism

impossible odds by dreadofmondays 2013-05-04T06:08:00

Nice visual style with some interesting mechanical twists.
I'm not a shmup fan and I liked it!
