Took me a bit to figure out what I was doing. Gameplay got a little monotonous. Maybe different kinds of events to disrupt your layout would help. Also, I think adding different parts to build with that have different functions would improve it quite a bit.
Nice work.
Awesome entry, agree with everyone here about the vocal sound effects being great. Simple soundtrack was also a great choice. Enjoyed the graphics, felt like they suited the game well. I'd love to see more depth in the abilities, and maybe more pickups (other than just power refueling). Depending on how crazy you want to get, maybe even a different class or two.
Nice job!
Nice entry, pretty fun. Loved the controls, although the player could be slightly less floaty. The knockback effect of shooting was nice; I liked jumping above like 4-5 enemies and just shooting down to kill them and hold myself and the air, then just falling on all the batteries at once.
Love the concept! As others have said, the start was a bit slow. A strafe ability wouldn't hurt. You could also add something to interfere with the strategy of just burning down enemy turrets right away. Even with hulls, it's kind of easy to essentially disable enemy ships within a few seconds. Overall, awesome job!
Very nice entry. Several choices seem really well suited to the overall aesthetic. The art style, font, sounds, music, and voice clips were all great. I would say that the difficulty didn't seem to ramp fast enough for my tastes; too many power pickups made it pretty easy to chain several warps in a row without worrying too much about recovering power afterwards. Great job on this entry!
Liked the art and the sounds, they really sold it. No replayability, but then this is a LD entry. Maybe making the race a bit longer with a different set of keys to rapidly tap to catch your breath or something? Anyway, nice job!
Overall decent entry, aiming was a bit tricky since I kept wanting to stand at the top of the ramps and aim down and it didn't seem like the gun would point that way. Nice job.
Liked it, music mechanics are the best. It was a bit easy, maybe some different approach patterns for the pylons. Good job! (btw, wasn't working for me, maybe double check it).
Liked it, more challenging puzzles/levels would be nice. The camera clipping into the walls got a little annoying. Some audio would be nice, maybe a faint humming for when your robot is moving, and some audio cue that the level has been activated/deactivated.
This was really neat, and pretty unlike anything else I've played/rated this round. I would love maybe a more ambient chill track with some cooler (blues and greens, eg) colors. Great job!
This is a pretty decent entry. Sounds were decent, the graphics worked for the style. The speed of the guy plus the choice of control keys made controlling the player a bit awkward. Nice work!
Nice job, liked your music. Gameplay could have used a bit more depth, maybe a different type of attacking robot. Also, I assumed your supposed to go right since you can't attack to the left, but the camera didn't seem to pan with me. Just something to think about. Anyways, grats on finishing your first LD!
Got stuck a few levels in (see screenshot), had resistance at 49/49 but the level didn't complete (double checked the circuit, maybe I missed something though?). Fun concept, some sounds wouldn't hurt, nor a drag/drop interface (as in, once I've placed a piece on the grid, I'd like to move it to a new spot when I'm tweaking the solution to hit the exact resistance number).
Nice job overall!flow.png
Great entry! Took me a couple tries to understand what I was doing (didn't fully read your tutorial, probably should have). Music provided that "driving focus" mood. One time I died when I had plenty of supplies but ran out of power while advancing an hour, probably should just auto-convert in that case. It would help minimize the clicking without really detracting from the overall game. Nice job!
Fun, took me a bit to get the controls. Great LD entry!
Cute little entry, too short though. The mood was great, I think mostly due to the audio. Nice job!
Fun idea, setting up python was a hassle, could use a bit more depth. Overall decent.
Overall fun game. I liked the music. Needed more enemy types. Nice job!
Very cool, enjoyed it. The random motion of the enemies added a nice amount of tension given how slow the shots were, since you could usually kill them but sometimes at the last moment, they hop out of the way.
I actually liked the required turning of the ship and difficult controls (we had a similar concept, my game also intentionally used awkward controls). The on-the-fly tutorial was a nice touch. Enjoyed it overall.
Fun, thought the pirates were a little annoying to get past. No sound killed the immersion a bit. Nice entry!
I liked it, pacing was a bit slow. Hit a bug on my first play through when I ran out of power, presumably the game over screen, but was just an explosion effect and looped sound forever while showing me crisis cards.
Fun game, agree with other comments about controls feeling a little off. Hookshot aiming probably would have been better with the mouse. Enjoyed it overall.
Same as rigdonware, I liked the premise, and was all set to see how far I could make it. Nice concept, but getting stuck on day 1 is a showstopper bug.
LD43 — Sacrifices must be made (14)
The Sacrificial Adventurer by Lexyvil 2018-12-07T06:05:32Z ♥ 1
Some of the controls felt rough, otherwise a decent entry. Theme was on point. Boulder were brutal sometimes.
Elemental Storm by BenBurgh 2018-12-07T06:02:11Z ♥ 0
More hand-drawn art! That was one of the better parts of the game, so replace the 3D models. I like the concept of de-powering a boss fight by taking down the different elements. Definitely wouldn't mind seeing more of this!
Gnome Man's Sky by Tim Ruswick 2018-12-06T19:52:01Z ♥ 0
Played this game far longer than I intended to, quite a bit of depth for a LD entry. I liked the art/animations, and the overall balance seemed pretty good. I kept feeling like the end-game was a bit grindy, but I think that may have just been my strategy. Great job on this!

Felt a bit unfinished, but I could definitely tell what you were going for. I liked how bouncy the tacos were when you hit them.
Trolley Troubles by randomphantom 2018-12-06T18:34:32Z ♥ 1
This was great. It felt a little slow at times, but then the next moment you're frantically scrambling to figure out how to adjust to being on a "bad" path. The impacts with the various people/chickens/etc felt great, which sounds horrible to say. Loved the dark humor mixed with the timeless moral dilemma. Great job!
Nature is Harsh by hav24 2018-12-06T18:24:44Z ♥ 1
The controls were nice. I'd like a better way to pick things up since I kept accidentally throwing things. Puzzles were great, I could definitely see expanding this out quite a bit. Nice job!
Trials of K'zhak by DrEvilBrain 2018-12-05T05:36:30Z ♥ 1
Great idea, the combat felt off like the swings didn't feel like they were connecting (even when they did). So maybe some sound effects wouldn't have hurt. I liked the overall vibe of the graphics and the music.
The Cult of the Hungry Scrungus by dmtroy 2018-12-05T05:31:41Z ♥ 1
I liked the concept, and the fact that you doubly used the theme (basic concept of feeding acolytes to a monster, and the early acolytes dying to make the way safer for the rest). The controls felt off somehow, like tipping the floor took too long to change the direction of the balls. The music was decent, I would like to have heard some sound effects (or if there were some, I couldn't hear them). Nice job!
Missing Parts by radow 2018-12-05T05:03:08Z ♥ 3
Really cool, audio and puzzles were on point, found the click positioning to be a little finicky at times. Great game.
Try by JohnLee Cooper 2018-12-05T04:52:12Z ♥ 0
Interesting idea, but the levels weren't solvable most of the time.
Ulti-MEME Sacrifice by LandoSystems 2018-12-05T04:47:26Z ♥ 2
Nice bullet hell entry, sacrifice theme ended up being a little weak since it didn't really feel like it mattered. Jokes were funny.
L.A.B. by disperse 2018-12-05T04:35:15Z ♥ 1
This is a really neat card game. It needs some balancing (although I feel you did a great job for the limited time frame). Nice job!
Sanity Wars by JoshAnthony1990 2018-12-05T04:18:02Z ♥ 1
Fun platformer, I found it a bit difficult to control the character but that was probably just me.
The Tearable Three by grandtheftmarmot 2018-12-05T03:59:49Z ♥ 1
I liked the idea, the controls felt a bit off, as did some of the physics. I was digging the music.
