LD43 — Sacrifices must be made

Diortem by Ilseroth 2018-12-04T04:18:17Z

I liked it and played the whole way through! Really good sfx (but any kind of soundtrack/background noise would be good). The abilities felt great. I think enemies need to be harder--an easy improvement would be to have some enemies shoot more than three bullets. Surprisingly big game for the time given, and feels pretty complete, though the endings could use some love.

purty strange and fatalistic! great environment and scene. i like that one guy who does that weird movement with his mouth open. was there supposed to be anything on the second floor?

Really good. Easy improvements would be to add a meter that shows how safe or badly breaking the vases are and raise the threshold for the glass breaking noise (maybe adding a different, less dramatic noise for lower thresholds). Very solid menu and upgrade system though, and amazing course (going in that wooden tunnel was awesome!), and obviously great driving and vase physics. Nice work!

Very smooth and fun--having little rooms with fun surprises (Pug Lisa) was a really really good touch.

NOTE:This game can still be played without VR--it just lacks a couple features. The itch.io page is now fixed. Thank you @justcamh for the feedback!!

A Heightened Plight by AstroPenguin642 2018-12-04T03:42:37Z

I played like 5 times, it seems necessary to give someone a parachute (in order to save 100% of the family) but I'm not sure how you get a parachute. So it felt impossible, but it was really fun to play even so! Does the dog barking protect you from birds? That should be clearer. There are many things that aren't clear at first that you learn after dying many times, which makes it fun to replay, but I think some of those need to be QOL adjustments. For example, any supplies you get should flash briefly in their spot. I loved the music, visuals, and tone. Gameplay was also super snappy and clean. Great job!

Eartheors by MrRyzen 2018-12-04T03:56:39Z

It was fun destroying meteors but overall I couldn't really figure out what was going on and what the endgame was--just to keep your population alive as long as possible? The difficulty should increase more over time. It needs to be clearer that research allows you to build more rockets. I also couldn't figure out how to use nukes. The music was great though!

Welcome to the North Pole! by fre 2018-12-04T18:12:20Z

Very polished, I really love the text in the environment. I felt like I couldn't get a grip on the mechanics even after like 10 minutes of trying, I think that there needs to be a way for you to select which snow ball you control--the way it seems to switch snowballs based on which direction you move frustrated me. Thank you and good job!

Hanoi - City of Scooters by mshopf 2018-04-23T23:10:40Z

Cool idea! I wish I knew how oncoming traffic was chosen. It also tended to feel the same each run. Sound effects upon reaching milestones would be great. Also, having some indication that the road is moving underneath you would make it feel more intense. Otherwise, I think that the way you pulled off the Theme is really impressive!

Wheels On Feels by mambojambo 2018-04-23T23:56:13Z

I couldn't get past the first gate where you have to choose! Super fun and weird controls and cool idea. I like how the controls are so weird and hard to master but the time mechanic gives you a fallback way to regain control.

Ultimate Hero Simulator by antvelm 2018-04-24T00:08:15Z

Nice game! Really like the intro scene. I thought that the dog became a little bit too much of a chore. It was cool to play a game where the point of killing the enemies was purely for the purpose of getting your pet food.

The Royale We by Ashley Pringle 2018-04-23T21:05:38Z

Trippy visuals! I couldn't figure out the controls unfortunately.
