sometimes after the first cube got the diamond it restarted as if I missed it, maybe I missed something but not sure. Aside from that it is a pretty clever puzzler that left me playing multiple times to get through each one. The 10 seconds can be pretty brutal but it works for me
Wow, yall did such a great job with this!
This is a great game to be studied by game designers. At first the floaty controls of the ballerina made me question the direction but as she flowed across the screen it was a clear example of an excellent mix of game mechanics and theme. It was like looking at a game version of black swan which blew me away.
Really nice graphics with an intro and everything! To be honest I thought there would be more as far as gameplay but what was there was really cool, I think you have a great prototype to build some real nice 2D game here.
Looks cool but I can't play it. Windows or mac please
Needs more boobs. What an awesome art style for a game, loved the tap tap tap. I kept goofing on the middle keys but thats my own problem. Also thought it was awesome how he manages to stop hackers with one hand, because fuck hackers.
This was pretty tough. Even though it has no sounds it might be good to add some sort of damage indicators to your ship to know when it was hit and how much it has left. You can also play with enemies that can zig zag or jump around to increase challenge. This is a good start to a nice defense game I a really like that it is multiplayer and players can't go through each other to provide a sense of teamwork.
Hey Trent, this is awesome and I'm glad you added the fullscreen button because it is so much better fullscreen. I was pretty close to making a super box clone but this one is probably way better than I would've done. Has nice juiciness to it. Only glitches I had were with pick ups and the bullets wouldn't travel as far but would still do damage. It would also help if I had a better indicator to when I was hit by the enemies but other then that its still really cool especially for just 9 hours.
Laser kitties win! even though the fun was not guaranteed I still had it! Nice work with the AI they were a good addition and a nice idea to book. Maybe the little players could be more distinct as well as when the player is each character like a glow effects or stroke or even a simple change of color to a darker yellow. Still nice work!
I couldn't really tell what the stickers were supposed to be but It's a nice combination of mixing 2D and 3D which worked well. Also think the instructions were a good addition but a bit more of a intro tutorial would be nice to get an insight of what the game will be about because at first glance I was not sure what to do. The effects were also really nice which added juiciness to it.
That was really nice, I got confused at some points because sometimes full bars for some are bad while empty bars are bad for others so maybe some more distinction between them would help! The graphics were really nice and I believe all of us can relate to this completely.
Poor guy... onion soup day in and day out.
Cool, easy to get a grasp of which is good. It becomes a bit of trial to see which doors go where since they are always changing. I Think its funny that the monster somewhat resembles pac-man making this a reverse tale of the classic game.
Nice little entry. With scrolling being an integral part of the game, it might be best to leave it only with the web option so as not to scroll down on this screen after catching a fish. Also I like that it tells you to scroll down to reel it in but it told me after I started reeling it in after reading the description.
The sounds and graphics are nice and simple and I am sure a lot more could be done to make it a nice challenge like scrolling slowly and then really fast for certain fishes, etc.
Nice little game. A bit on the simple side and I am not sure how to reload. Keep making games!
Hi sw your game on tigsource. This is pretty cool, I didn't get it at first until I read the description (I had no idea that was turning the lights off and on) but the concept is interesting and the visuals are nice. Hopfully there is more gameplay in the future.
Hah bluffing games are awesome, there was no one around to get the full experience but this must be best with controllers and possibly more AI to mix things up. Aside from that this is a real solid entry!
I wasn't sure how to play :( but I really liked the storybook look to this game. Put a smile on my face!
Awesome concept, and really interesting take on the one screen theme. Nice job!
This si cool but the platforming wasn't working with my keyboard. I fell and I just couldn't make that jump. I made it ONCE but I couldnt make the second one and now I don't know how I made the first one. The whole typing concept is really cool and I really want to play it but I can't get past that jump. Argh, she just doesn't jump on the corner. Anyways, still really nice work for 27 hours and I hope to try it again if the gap becomes a bit smaller.
I gave this a high humor because the music made me laugh. Not so sure if it fits whats going on but I also think it really improves the experience. Man that little sucker is hard to control too, and I know there isn't a lot of time but a little how to would be helpful even if it's just wasd jump. I also really liked the colors and the look so nice job!
I really enjoyed this, so far my favorite one from what I have played so far! Really nice job for the amount of time and the puzzles are really clever. This is a great idea with nice sound effects and colors. My only drawback (and this is just to nit pick) is that even though it is all in one screen the theme might have been incorporated a bit more into the game for a bit of uniqueness to the jam. Other then that, I thought this was great overall.
Wow, that was some trippy stuff. I really liked the concept but without reading the info I wouldn't have known to change the channels with the number pad or to move the character. Definitely a game of discovery and playing around to get a grip of the game which is cool in its own right. (I got up to unlocking the door)
Really nice idea, must be really fun with player vs player, computer should have more difficulty. The characters are really nice looking but the menu and the tutorial could have a more snazzy look. Still its a great game with a really cool idea. I could definitely see this turn into a really nice 3D game with character animation or board game!
the floor is lava! Try to stay bouncing with these nice graphics make it really easy to keep playing! Solid entry!
This is so great, makes me wish I was better at pinball but that is one awesome concept!
Damn that is pretty hard. I like the luigi mansion style of gameplay and the music set the mood well. You can definitely do more with it.
Saw this on tigsource! This is a really clever design and brain stumper! Damn those oranges have no idea what disasters are going on, living idly by.
This was reaaaally cool, I like the concept of the hero and the witch a lot. It seems like a deep game that would require a bit more instructions in the beginning as well as a cook book of all the recipes you have already figured out later on or some type of guide for the player. Not that we need hand holding but for a game that has a timer and asks us to figure things out quickly, some direction as to where to start would be ideal.
Really nice work with the magnifying glass and level structure. That was a nice maze game. What could use a bit more polish would be the movement and floor wall placement. Still, the magnifying effect really made it a cool experience.
For some reason when I open it, it says no game.
Nice work, I had some problems with detecting the ground at some point and I fell through and when I picked up the tombstone I threw it to the right while looking left but this is a very clever puzzle dynamic and the visuals are great!
That was fun guys, cool online play, multiplayer is always awesome and the visuals were nice too. I really had fun playing with you all.
It looks great but it kept getting stuck for me from throwing each other to when the girl did her chopping. She would just hover and not move. It looks really cool and the style is amazing!
BONUS ROUND CLOSET! I wish it had sound :( Not so sure as the whole it being a weapon though as it seems like typing objects around you. I also thought it was funny and worked well.
Thank you for making this, I really enjoyed it a lot.
Hey Jemalexanger, have you tried with a joystick? hopefully that works because that is a real bummer!
Oh no Wdavemart? can you let me know what was happening?
And if this happens to anyone else can you please let me know the issues so that I may resolve them. Thanks for playing everyone!
Thanks for the excellent feedback. I will definitely revisit the tutorial aspect of this since I didn't manage to convey the gameplay properly. The reason they are easy to kill is because you have to kill them all at the same time depending on the location of colored zone you are in. Thats the only way to advance to the next area. Thanks again for the feedback.
That is very strange. I am running on a Mac and was able to finish the game...
I made some quick alterations which hopefully make the camera smoother for this version, as well as some changes with the VO to duck the volume of the music. As for the enemies, I think if we approached this as rooms instead of areas, it would've made more sense that these are meant to be challenges but that was definitely an oversight and issue of time. Thank you very much for your input to improve this entry!
ahck, on mac? because I tested this extensively. Thanks for playing
Very stylish and funny entry. Maybe for the future more features to make the game more dynamic would give it more longevity but it is excellent for a compo version!
Awesome job Jack, tis is a neat entry you have made that I think would work great in time trail type situations. I like the more narrow levels better than the larger ones (face) which I think plays better with the dashing and warping for speed.
Funniest game I have played yet!!! Graphics were top NOTCH. So many voice options too! So funky! Not sure if I saw everything. I went through every option and he stayed still.
Game crashed while I was playing but before that everything was great and I was having fun.
This is so cool, at one point enemies started going backwards and I couldnt combine anymore but the premise is really interesting and something I have been wanting to play with as well, this take is really interesting!
I sweat they are closing their mouths as soon as I look at them. This is pretty challenging. I like the visuals and idea is great. Maybe too hard as of right now.
I am a horrible theif since I keep throwing my cargo at the people trying to get them back hahaha. I like the music and visuals. It got a bit hard when the ice was a bit out of reach and I wasn't sure how to play but figuring it out was good, so I liked that aspect. Nice play on theme.
This was an interesting way to teach people but my only problem is that there doesn't seem to be a cohesive theme to the knowledge, going from the rule of thirds to the doppler effect seemed strange. I also would have appreciated a joke using the rule of thirds or more examples with it in general. Aside from that I appreciate the fact that this was a learning game and the style in which it was portrayed was GREAT so I definitely hope to see more knowledge shared.
Would like to see more in this, even though the story seems to be over. Sometimes words may not be enough so one may require whispers or even shouts.
This was really great, More Jam Please! Also, try to get the player movement tighter because I would fall as I am shooting jelly to the floor, it would work every now and then. Less screen shake as I am trying to escape too haha, out of control. Great though! Awesome work!!
Wow there is a lot of detail in this game as far as gameplay goes, also very challenging requiring a bit of patience to get a hang of. Nice work.
I don't think I've played a side scroller that can shoot 360 degrees, this is something to definitely keep playing with so great idea! Not sure if it is so unconventional but still cool.
This made me laugh. I liked the mechanics to this and I thought a good back story if he is the ultimate thief that stole cupids bow for nefarious purposes is great.
Awesome visuals!! A bit tough to guide the vampire but the idea is great! I would love to see this polished and such to really make the vampire kick ass because this is a great idea.
Haha this was pretty funny, and it was very different as well with the mini game on the side. I think maybe the cups should be taken out when you get the ball inside unless I missed something. and maybe the movement can be worked on to be more fluid but funny indeed.
Super innovation points, this was really interesting. And it looks like you have learned a lot from the experience which is the best thing that could ever happen. It was a bit hard to understand without reading the info here but the presentation is excellent.
Nice puzzles! I hear it is like hitman which I always wanted to try out so thanks for that. Not sure whose fault this is but when I tried to move with the arrow keys my window would move up and down... How do I fix that?
I don't know much about music so I wasn't sure which key was which :(
Pretty cool, the art is fantastic. The game is very quick and may become quite unfair at points because it is either too fast or too slow so a middle ground would be good. I liked the phone call.
The cat looks pretty cool, the character I am not sure what it is. I am also unsure about the objective... How do you play?
It's not loading for me..... I will be back to try again
Nice way to hook me in! I did not know that fact nor choose to question it because that is way too funny if true. The gameplay was a bit of a challenge at first and I think the player gets stuck if you run out of a certain colors ball... 4 blue ships and 2 balls = 0 accuracy :(
That was pretty intense for a short game, careful with the UI showing up behind the other UI.
Good work with this! It would be nice to have an enemy count, waves and such type information but the unconventional weapons were really funny. Sometimes I couldn't hit the enemy because my bullets would hit each other. Visually looks nice as well as I always liked the voxel style.
This is an excellent idea for the theme 5/5. Graphics work for the entry, the only problem is that while you are on the ground you have absolutely no defense until you bounce up again. Maybe if you had a bop button that knocks them back with your belly as some sort of defense.
My Highest rated entry thus far. Excellente
My Highest rated entry thus far. Excellente
Who needs grass anyway! Nice overall game! I liked the voxel style, the music was good, and now I hate moles. Awesome work!
The map says Z and X but I am not sure what Z does. It has a nice story but the enemies were a bit hard to battle against. Much of my games suffered from this as well because combat is very hard to manage but I have tried to contest this with having a slight advantage over the enemy while keeping it fair. The enemies need to have a tell for the player as well in my opinion to know when to attack. I think this can be a great game and I look forward to more because it really does look great and I am sure it can get there.
Hard stuff. Nice work, I had to quickly learn the distance to shoot and where to find these guys. What I think it needs are some more indicators, like how hungry is a customer, what is the current weapon you have, and maybe a score or count to satisfied vs dissatisfied customers. Some customers would moonwalk away :D Audio is so great! Had me laughing.
Very nice go at it. A lot of different features and action.
Warning, must know how to read time! haha :D
After I saw that image I couldn't wait to play it! Great game you made in such a short time. And as far as I am aware, nature attacked US FIRST!
Awesome entry! I really enjoyed the graphics, sounds, etc. I got a bit stuck at one point between two barriers and my ducklings kept dying :( aside from that it was funny and great!
I love this! The bot kicked my ass but the idea is great!
Careful with the order of your sprites! Lucifer ended up behind the chair.
Pretty interesting, I like the rock paper scissors movement element but it would have probably been easier to remember what beats what with a method we familiar with instead of yap yappa yak. Nice Ai too.
They have weapons but only use words, that's pretty funny. Be careful with what people can use as a layout because my game is really wonky, the map was still in the background, the words stayed on screen etc
The drawings were good, I am not sure either how to win since sometimes my insult would just lose. Careful putting green over green text because it also makes it difficult to read.
This is very innovative! I think it really needed a bit more of a tutorial to get the idea that I could click on the enemy from afar and I was sowing them but once I got it it was a real clever idea. Maybe something that can be played more with to use the string for purposes as well. Nice work!
This kid is too old for a teddy bear, but one is never too old! I liked those menu animations, I'm sure because lack of time there wasn't a chance but it'd be nice to have damage bar and sound effects to feel those hits. Nice graphics too.
This was pretty tough, I though the enemy had the upper hand through out. I thought using monthy python characters were funny but the game could use more work UI/UX wise which is just as important as anything else in gaming.
I liked the killer joke idea.
This was a surprising experience, I really did not expect it to go in that direction. There are a few areas I think could improve the gameplay, the tight areas as the worm made it slow down the experience. There was an area where I had to go back down the tube and that was narrow enough to make the path interesting while not making it too tight. It was also strange when the orbs where placed in the middle of the trigger point where the camera moves up or down, because as I collected the orbs it would constantly move the camera based on my position. I'm sure it would be less disorienting if the orbs in the middle instead of on the edges. Aside from running into walls, the movement felt fantastic. The bird was maybe a little too fast, but I get that it was meant to be an upgrade. Great entry, Thanks!
Gamedev ending! Really nice looking game. I wasn't entirely sure if the amount of money or people did anything. Maybe it gave me more choices based on the amount? But it was still a nice experience and funny as well.
This gave me great respect for the particles/atoms? that travel towards the eye! Look Togis mentioned, a good way to let the player know you are close is by having at least a bar at the top based on progression or a distance marker. I also would have liked a skip button for the intro but I did make it to the eye. Visually great game as well and plays well! Thanks!
Yes! A city building game! Thanks for making this! So I followed the tutorial but I was able to build anywhere I wanted regardless of what it says so I am not sure if that was okay or not. Still very cool, and a great amount of work for the time provided. Very impressed!
Very great, challenging and well thought out tower defense game. With the art from your friend, this would look amazing. I would love to see an expanded version. Some things that would help would be if the movement was a bit faster, or relied on the mouse instead. Aside from this I really like how the enemy is constantly growing and creating new attack points as it grows, I have not seen that before.
Great job!
Very nice work, and it's a comp! I felt when the claw dropped made it quite challenging, and I think if the timing was clearer as to when it would drop, it would be better to know when to dodge. Great idea with making it hit open areas to be able to move on. Great puzzle-yness to it as well!
Very cool and great idea with the aesthetics. They were slightly trippy going through them, but the framerate was great for me. There is so much to do and find which makes for a fun puzzle game. Thanks for making it
Lovely looking game and great mechanic, but as Denny mentioned, it would have been great to play with more elements to keep an interest from level to level. I really enjoyed the moment the character went from one side to the other and I would definitely want more of those aha moments.
Really great story and writing, also visually nice. The little sounds they would do was too faint, but it still was a very enjoyable experience!
Awesome concept, and great puzzle! It took me a few turns to realize the bunny started on the top one the tile and maybe just a one frame tutorial or even just a way to show that the mid tile starts with the path pointing up would have gotten me started in the right direction. It's also challenging in the best way. I always look forward to playing your titles and this one is just as great!
Hey Maksym, I tried playing it but the start button would not work on the webgl version. The quit and controls lit up but the start did not.
Hahaha this is too funny, humor definitely 5. That sun is definitely the champ. Everything looks great and plays well. Sound and effects would have really elevated it to the next level when you make that round 2!
I beat it! It got really intense at the end, would be great if the music got faster as it progressed or something to go with the intensity. But I loved that my guns kept getting stronger. Especially great considering this is your first LD. Your comments here outside the game are really funny and I wish I saw that humor displayed in the game.
And thanks for rating ours, really funny comment!
Nice looking game, good sound effects, good music. Tight Controls. The hitbox is a bit too big on the player for my taste especially when you are moving fast and can't see an incoming blade. It might also be best if the bullets die when they reach the edge of the screen, since I was able to shoot blind and hit targets without the need to see where they were. Also, it would be great to see which direction my gun is going to shoot, because there would be moments that I moved right, stopped, and still shot left which confused me. This aside, it is still a great entry which played very well. Movement, Jumping, and platforming felt great. Thanks!
Very cool idea, and I would have loved to see more with the bottom screen since it is interesting how it interacts with the one above. Some points where the music is louder than Carl, making it hard to hear him. Great work, looks very nice.
Man do I love tiny flowers! Does the sun also love tiny flowers and increase the speed at which the tiny flowers grow?
Very cool game, I got up to the boss and he wooped my butt (he launches those asteroids pretty fast!) haha Keep up the programming skills and the art is pretty good!
Looks really cool but I can't download any games into my C:\ can you update with a non installer file and maybe just an executable? Will update.
Glad you were able to add the .exe version. Very cool game and tight controls. I will admit the high speed spinning can get me a bit dizzy, but I have a low tolerance for motion-sickness. and the music is amazing.
Thanks for playing everyone!
For any future readers, I see that it's not the clearest hints but for the guy who turned four. @realitycheck @philomory **SPOILER** since he is turning four and only has three candles, if you bring him a fourth candle he will continue the story.
This was definitely a great note on how to make objectives clearer in the game!
Pretty interesting gameplay. It can be pretty challenging considering you have no weapons but I like that the planets shoot for you. It was a lot of dodging to avoid the enemies. Cool work!
Voted! Great puzzle mechanic. I was sure how the bunnys moved in the beginning or what their pattern was until I realized the cards on the right were meant to be their cards. Once I got the handle of it, I really enjoyed the premise. I honestly think the theme in this entry is a bit out there compared to small world but its still a nice entry with great graphics.
Very nice! Great job with your first entry! I collected all the friends and made it to the ship. The game is lenient in letting me keep everything after dying. If that werent the case it would be too difficult. Finding a balance inbetween would make it perfect!
Hey Takusan, thanks for your comments on my entry. As for Slightly Angry Max, (no association with the madder max) this is a solid entry as others have pointed out! I would also increase the speed a bit to give me a chance to escape. Honestly, the theme is also not that clear, since its more of a small island. The programming is well done, and the bullet rate of the machine gun makes it entertaining. It would have been funny to work with the slightly angry nature of the game by making the power up make him red and faster with maybe a text bubble stating he is "I'M SLIGHTLY ANGRY!!!!". I'll look forward to the updates!
Very cool puzzler, and also very challenging. I think it could be slightly easier like maybe the end has a magnetic pull that assists the player, or more guides to let the player know what gravity is currently closest to the ball. But still very cool entry and well thought out puzzles.
Oh and one thing I would say is that there were a few times when I hit the reset button instead of the next button because I was used to hitting the reset button so many times. I would also suggest moving the reset button for when you win so not to accidentally press it.
Cool and responsive. Graphics and music were great too. A bit challenging but fun once you get the hang of it. I like the idea of having to make your own bullets and the importance of the fire. It would be great to have a way to heal as well since there is only so much time, it would be a nice risk/reward.
Agreed with Samurai! The hit box seems pretty large as well when it comes to the giants but man does it look sweet when you drive right past one in top speed. I would say, working on clarity of where they are stomping, the colliders on the buildings (I got stuck a few times) But still fun, nice work on the driving as well!
Reminiscent to Felix work! Very nice visually! For your future updates to make it more gamer friendly, I think you should really bring out the thorns and their color from the visual foreground and background. It is beautiful but it blends a bit much with the environment and can sneak up on you. The same with the platform, it fits the environment but as a game, it might be easier to recognize if there were more visual cues on them to know what is ground and what is background. And also, great idea with flipping the planet by hitting the core! Nice work team!
I kept on playing until I got into a zen trance. Very nice aesthetics and innovative style of gameplay. I'm not sure how it could be expanded aside from adding more sides and such. It also had a nice difficulty, which I think could be improved if the enemies attack you if they are facing you so I can't just hop behind them every time. I loved how the world is displayed, and the style is fantastic.
