LD42 — Running out of space

WinDOORS by spelos 2018-08-17T14:13:38Z

Does clicking the progress bar do anything? :thinking: jk, great game :P Accidentally broke it tho cuz I put too much text in the notes ^^'

LD45 — Start with nothing

Simple? Tower Defense by shared 2019-10-07T10:32:28Z

Works great for me! Great game, qutie challening, had to restart most maps a few times to get the perfect combination of towers. I did notice a few bugs on the last stage tho - you can place towers on the road - web sprites will be spawned below the road sprite - waves end before all enemies are killed

Simple? Tower Defense by shared 2019-10-07T11:13:54Z

I believe bullets colliding is an intended behavior, if it isn't: I absolutely love it

LD46 — Keep it alive

WAVE by japes 2020-04-29T10:55:33Z

Interesting concept, the normal version didn't work for me at first until I reloaded the page ^^'

StayTogether by n8___ 2020-05-09T12:34:58Z

Yay I won :smile: Scouted the place on my first attempt, leaving the child behind somewhere, then on my second attempt quickly brought both to the exit. Maybe add a restriction that you aren't allowed to lose sight of the child ^^

Blightstone by Nimphious 2020-04-29T10:40:25Z

I really hope you'll continue this as it looks really promising and I can agree to your own statement in that it is very fun to just run around in the empty map

Down to Earth by ruthiepee 2020-04-29T10:33:13Z

Can agree mostly to @delph, the best strategy I came up with was holding down leftclick and d and then waiting for my score to increase (I gave up after 3500). Aside from that I think that the destruction sound of the meteorites is too loud relative to the music so you cannot apprechiate the music as much :(

Morose by 100th_Coin 2020-04-27T11:36:32Z

Very impressive, reminds me a bit about undertale 🤭 And can only agree to what the other have said. I progressed through miggs path first with no softlock aside from the invisible replenish button in the fights. Then tried the other route and well that wasn't as successfull, but fun game anyway

The Blind Hummingbird by Webox 2020-04-20T15:30:35Z

Love this! Music fits so well, super relaxing gameplay

Flowdating by spthiel 2020-04-20T15:34:16Z

@scifi6546 Thanks! :D

@captainabi The answers do have an impact on how the plant is doing and if you actually want to finish on an affection run, you have to use them to your advantage. I do agree tho that there isn't a hole lot of questions but I couldn't come up with more of them so I looped them. Also I intentionally wanted the water and sun to be simple because I wanted to have the game more on the zen side than a difficult game

Flowdating by spthiel 2020-04-23T11:49:06Z

@wzqxrys Thanks! The color is actually random from a set of 4. Also could you please also rate my mood and innovation? :grin:

Flowdating by spthiel 2020-04-25T13:45:30Z

@onnofal There is a pretty dark ending which probably wouldn't last you in a very positive mood :grimacing: but thanks!

@delunado there's 6 endings just I feel like they aren't easy to achieve if one doesn't know the working in the background (spoilers below) > 1. Get to max affection and accept > 2. Get to max affection and deny > 3. Get to max height > 4. Get to min height > 5. Get to min sun > 6. Get to max sun

(spoilers end)

@lesinvisible thanks! :smile:

Flowdating by spthiel 2020-04-29T10:21:38Z

@lexyvil omg I don't know why I didn't think of that ending :joy: Yes, that should totally exist

Also @ruthiepee happy you two got to the affection ending ^^

As for the algebra question: Aside from me not fixing the ² in the question I also just noticed that I never updated the equasion when I updated the answers it should have actually been x² + 2x = 35 :sweat:

Metamagotchi by onnofal 2020-04-23T12:20:35Z

Very nice concept! Would also love to see a continued version of this! Also love the graphics c:

Type IT! by Hedgy 2020-04-23T12:56:32Z

Quite enjoyed playing the game, and cannot add much to the other comments on here :smile:

Keep It Alive, Keep Enemies Dead by Maksim Chugunov 2020-04-22T10:14:27Z

Really fun but I think the time for you to pick a part up when it falls is too small, I often tried to carry multiple at a time and then missclicked by a pixel to then lose the one I already had selected and not catch any at all :cry:

A Lost Child by Klaus Peter 2020-04-20T15:13:39Z

I think the speed is too slow now :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: but might be cuz I'm used to your debug speed hehe

AliveClicker by RastaGrzywa 2020-04-21T17:24:35Z

@lambdanaut amount and power aren't buttons ^^' amount shows the amount of workers you got and power the total power of your buttons

Now for the actual review: I don't think this game is possible to beat ^^' It's fun in the begining but loses it's goal pretty quickly and get's plain after that. Furthermore maximal upgraded workers are still pretty bad and resetting with keeping upgrades doesn't properly work (at least it doesn't keep the upgrade). And resetting to zero doesn't remove the upgrade cost :cry:

They are corrupted by Nikita Demidov 2020-04-30T17:39:29Z

Really difficult especially since the range on the enemies appears to be further than the players reach and the controls feel a bit wonky ^^

Protect the Queen! by Clipper 2020-04-29T11:14:33Z

Great game, you need to work on canvas scaling tho, wasn't able to end turn in normal browser view.

Also as a heads up, you have to rate other games in order to gain publicity for your entry. Otherwise you will not gain a lot of ratings and most likely not make it into the leaderboards

Angry Aphid by scifi6546 2020-04-20T15:08:09Z

Really like the graphics, even tho it's just a few squares, but I'm a sucker for simple look. Don't quite get the rest of the game tho ^^'

Keep the princess alive by Eyleen 2020-04-29T10:59:52Z

http://wiki.compilgames.net/doku.php/gdevelop5/publishing here's a guide on how to publish your game (building an executeable) :)

Supernova by Clément K 2020-04-20T15:23:18Z

Can only agree to swen, the acceleration controls feel really weird at first but add a lot to the gameplay, really liked it!

Harvest Season by singleshoe 2020-04-21T16:22:40Z

Super chill! First game was quite challenging cuz I didn't know what to do and second game I stopped playing at Turn 117 with 541 points :grimacing:

Are you supposed to be able to place outside the boundry? :sweat_smile:

LifeLine - Music Pattern Obstacle Dodge by WZQXRYS 2020-04-21T17:51:38Z

Didn't read the gameplay and collected 102 spikes in my first gameplay (oops, got quite hecktic lol). Second time around tried to avoid them, still got 110 boosts :sweat: I'm terrible at this, but the music is just the bests

Fireman (in-browser) by Somniac 2020-04-27T11:58:44Z

Had my fun for a few maps figuring out how the game works but eventually it got quite monotone :sweat_smile:

Vital Signs by Houdou 2020-04-20T15:42:31Z

Imo this game is way too hard :sweat_smile: But still fun! Atmosphere is also really nice

LD50 — Delay the inevitable

Save Gogo by MAT4DOR 2022-04-04T16:10:38Z

Haha this is quite similar to what I did just more ingenious, am a cat person tho - sorry :cat:

Dont Sleep by PhoenixofForce 2022-04-04T16:05:29Z

Some wise man once said "All good games have animation canceling, or something like that"

Space Death by loligxp 2022-04-04T16:22:50Z

Can agree to Uzpykes, died at 389 mostly to just lag

Delay Dragon by dindotjs 2022-04-04T16:36:54Z

Could really need some different controls other than that, this is great. I only played to level 4 but the levels are challenging and feel quite rewarding when you finally understand how to beat them

LD41 — Combine 2 Incompatible Genres

Punk at the Opera by rjhelms 2018-04-26T12:18:38Z

I won :tada: quite fun game and a different approach to the theme. I like it! (52800 score)

Commodore Combat by Syrapt0r 2018-04-27T12:59:40Z

I really like textbased games. And the concept of making an fps textbase is quite interesting. Also, I love the music <3

22800 Score btw

Jungle Rumble by masterkrepta 2018-04-27T12:08:47Z

It's a nice game with a great concept but I have some complaints: 1st the explosion sound is relatively noisy compared to the footsteps (which get louder the closer you are to the enemy if I noticed that correctly) 2nd upon restart of the game there's no timer anymore 3rd If you stand inside the AI gorilla it can't hit you nor will it move

The Sparrow Served Danger by incobalt 2018-04-27T14:12:08Z

I can only agree with previous comments. The controls are really unintuitive.

SKYWOOOD PIER by designernap 2018-04-27T13:16:22Z

This was a really nice experience. What an astonishing game.

Racing Tower Defense by Flying Cat of the Pepes 2018-04-27T13:44:21Z

Nice game :thumbsup:

Match Racer by tomdeal 2018-04-26T12:11:27Z

I really liked the game (beaten it on all difficulties :tada: ) the music is great and the gameplay quite easy to understand but hard to master :P

Defender of the Road by Val 2018-04-23T08:19:23Z

Very nice game, easy to break tho. Just level up one canon as far as you can and once you have it at ~lvl 20 you essentially won // plenty of time later: score 476k // enemy speed: inf :joy:

Defender of the Road by Val 2018-04-23T14:54:01Z

So what is that number? DOTR_2018-04-23_16-47-23.png

Defender of the Road by Val 2018-04-26T09:24:48Z

@cg-fred an online highscore list would be difficult since you can't die at some point and then your score won't be registred :sweat_smile: (1.6e6 score here)

Power in Numbers by amras0000 2018-04-27T14:35:31Z

This is what you call a brilliant concept put into a great game. I really like it.

Litur Teningur by Vinterskog 2018-04-27T12:32:53Z

Really nice game. Enjoyed working my way to the top. Unique concept! :thumbsup:

Point & Shoot by Temmy 2018-04-23T11:12:25Z

Amazing. I love that humor!

Final Click ZX by candlesan 2018-04-30T06:16:16Z

Very nice game. The announcer is really nice :P. Didn't buy the 25k upgrade either... when you already used a lot of time getting to 10k it's just awful to get with the same amount of income to 25k in my opinion.

Permadate by lectvs 2018-04-26T13:15:10Z

Very nice game. Once you figured it out it's somewhat easy (even tho I haven't completed it yet :joy: )

Progress by spelos 2018-04-22T20:01:33Z

**Best Score: 22115 Longest streak: 153** // I think I'm getting addicted to this

golf hell by undefinist 2018-04-26T11:40:56Z

Golf really doesn't fit bullet hell :joy: best way I found was to first kill all enemys :sweat_smile: Great game never the less

Dungeon Solitaire by Scrumplesplunge 2018-04-30T07:10:54Z

So I know that's against the concept but a minimap would be very appreciated :joy: (was walking around for 10 minutes trying to find the end)

True Love Adventure by neowhoru 2018-04-23T18:23:52Z

I can only agree to everything that's said above and the controls are messed up for me :/ I can't queue different directions after one another which makes it alot more difficult to successfully walk around an enemy

Card Rush by EggshellDog 2018-04-26T13:45:52Z

Great concept. But quite difficult

Dodge The Bullet by Apace 2018-04-23T08:49:52Z

I really liked it, managed to get through all levels without a stroke (needed some luck tho). But I think the difficulty curve is a little too steep to the 5th level. I think the first 4 levels together are as difficult as the 5th alone so yea

Soccer Battle Royale by ditzel 2018-04-22T19:14:06Z

Link leads to 404 :/

Soccer Battle Royale by ditzel 2018-04-22T21:11:37Z

oh okay. well then HYPE!

Beat Em Shmup by CaptainDreamcast 2018-04-26T12:29:01Z

Humor 7 out of 5!!

Cauliflower Power by Librorumque64 2018-04-26T11:29:59Z

Nice game though I think it's more of a puzzle-stealth game than farming

GuitarPicks by Solnak 2018-04-27T14:23:58Z

Neat! Really like the game :D

Just Like The Day We Met by Zinkler 2018-04-26T11:25:15Z

Good game. Haven't played it much but from what I can tell it was pretty difficult.. also you can't really see the green healthbar on the green selection

Candy Catch by DjeyCreations 2018-04-27T12:39:41Z

Great game. I like the different approach to the theme even though it's not that present in the game. Well done anyway!

Super Chess Card Wars by Jamblefoot 2018-04-27T12:17:24Z

I don't really understand the game ^^' it seems like throwing cards is the worse option you have since you run up on cards faster that way

Dungeon Solitaire by Lex 2018-04-26T13:37:16Z

I really like the game. I don't think I've ever seen a game where you can build your own dungeon :thumbsup:

Don't text and fly by Aarre Entertainment 2018-04-26T12:58:15Z

Very great game concept and very challenging. I like it ^^

Realtime Strategy Dating Sim by Scott R Howell 2018-04-23T10:14:16Z

When you first enter the game it's pretty fun and you get stressed easily but once you figured out how it works it get's really repetitive to a point where sound & gameplay is just annoying :/ Some more dialouges, towers and maybe some upgrades would've been nice

Shady Tactics by lpriebe 2018-04-26T11:51:48Z

Really enjoyed playing the game ^^

ASM Hell by vilix64 2018-04-25T09:37:35Z

I really like theese kind of games where you have to solve puzzels but at the same time they learn a bit of coding. Love the game!

Double Trouble by MaxKlimenok 2018-04-26T12:50:50Z

It's a good game. But not fitted for compo since the music was not created in 48 hours and it was not made by 1 person :/

Double Trouble by MaxKlimenok 2018-04-26T15:44:46Z

Very well now there's nothing to complain about anymore :P

Blitzingo by spthiel 2018-04-23T07:48:33Z

Yea I decided not to add a tutorial (except the 3 rules) bcs it doesn't really need an explenation for what you have to do, you will figure it out ^-^

Blitzingo by spthiel 2018-04-23T10:29:43Z

@theLudovyc I understand your point but I think that would lead to the problem that players would skip way more numbers to get only 5 in a row so they can end the game at the easiest difficulty

Blitzingo by spthiel 2018-04-23T11:02:54Z

@Apace You can't have bad luck in the game actually ^^' there's an untold mechanic in it. everytime you hit a gray square it'll remove one of the numbers that are not on your field. so e.g. if you clicked 30 gray squares in easy you only have 40 numbers left in the pool and 25 of them are yours so it's over 50% chance that you have a hit

Blitzingo by spthiel 2018-04-23T11:05:27Z

@sndr haha yea that's why you can't die in easy :D this way everybody will be able to complete the game

Blitzingo by spthiel 2018-04-25T09:33:13Z

@LandoSystems that's what the RAN button is for (RAN from Random) it will autofill the board with random numbers

Blitzingo by spthiel 2018-04-26T15:43:59Z

@Vasco-Freitas An scoreboard would be nice, yes but I haven't found a decent way on how to mesure score and if I were going based on the time you'd just need luck. And it's not really a cheat when everybody can do it :P

@MaxKlimenok I know that sound would make it better but I didn't want to use assets for this so there was no way to add music (also thx for that last bit ^^)

Blitzingo by spthiel 2018-04-26T18:49:04Z

@coldmoose don't you think people wouldn't skip the entering of own numbers then and maybe even complain about their numbers? :thinking:

Blitzingo by spthiel 2018-04-27T06:29:49Z

@rjhelms I'll note that in case I ever do this again or decide to continue working on this game

Blitzingo by spthiel 2018-04-27T11:38:23Z

@Vinterskog thx and same answer to you as before: "I know that sound would make it better but I didn’t want to use assets for this so there was no way to add music"

Blitzingo by spthiel 2018-04-30T05:48:10Z

@Syrapt0r as I said before it's not really a cheat if anybody can use it :P

Blitzingo by spthiel 2018-05-02T11:02:07Z

@masterkrepta yep, I hid the random button too well :/ thanks for the feedback :)

@dob Easy is indeed very easy (in fact you can't die) but medium is still possible :P just requires some training and a good management of your eyesight but I agree it's quite difficult :joy:

@Lex thanks a bunch ^-^

A Fourth Idea by pladams9 2018-04-26T13:26:34Z

Great game. A help on what actions you can use would be appreciated

The Lake Of Horrors by WongKongPhooey 2018-04-23T08:59:36Z

I really like the graphics. And it requried me way too long to figure out how it works (but I think that was my fault ^^' ). Doging the mosters is not really difficult tho since they are so few of them. I think you should tweak that a bit.

LD41 - Let's a go! by Shoj92 2018-04-26T12:38:04Z

Well done! :)

Shoot the Notes by minirop 2018-04-23T08:43:08Z

I like the idea. Things you could improve: 1st Sound loop a bit longer - it get's really annoying really fast 2nd Make it so you can hit the notes based on the beat (if there's a beat you can shoot 'em up)

Whack-a-Rat by wildcard 2018-04-27T11:55:57Z

Great game. I somewhat dislike the controls (but that's probably just me ^^) and the sound get's somewhat annoying quite quick but other than that pretty nice concept

Life Is Nuclear by Valden 2018-04-23T11:46:27Z

Really great. I really like the attitude of the game. Reminds of Undertale, LIS and Cave Story (all great games) btw is there an end?

Talking Bullets by Bentekiller 2018-04-26T11:58:00Z

The movement is a bit weird and you don't have to kill anyone as said above.. but thx for uploading ^^

Match 'n Slash by Lemons 2018-04-23T08:07:58Z

Very fun game (had to restart 3 times to get the rocket ^^)

Need for Coin: Island Hoppers by saoi-games 2018-04-23T11:33:49Z

Very fast paced, I like it. (bonus level is bugged for me btw, I glitch in the ground on some of the blocks)

Papa Mazai by WalkDiGidong 2018-04-23T10:47:57Z

Good concept, the clicker part is not present enough in my opinion though Also I feel like the recource gathering is way to slow. And at last the zombies often get stuck since they are taller than one block and they should attack you if you attack them + call for backup since the way it's done atm you just have to stand a bit away from them and you can't die

King of Carcasone by EdgarLord 2018-04-27T11:46:09Z

@Steffo not necessarily since it's a board game and he wouldn't be able to provide download links nor would screenshots be very interesting to watch. Se should add rules tho since it's an entry and an entry that you can't test is not an entry in my opinion

Cat Pack by Potondo 2018-04-23T07:39:37Z

This is so difficult ^^' but there are cats so it's good

Zlornko Teaches Typing by katie 2018-04-23T07:40:56Z

As somebody said before reminds me of undertale pretty fun nevertheless.. and challenging

Card Coded by Pixelhurricane 2018-04-23T07:42:36Z

I think it would've been better if you were able to use the cards by clicking on them since it's difficult to go from a movement card to a jump card if they are 2 apart. Great game either way tho

CHARLIE by notb 2018-04-23T08:36:04Z

I have to agree on previous reponses. There are too many things happening on screen and I still don't really know how it works/what is the goal. I searched ages trying to find a key that does sth (Z). Some guide would be nice :/

RealTimeStrategy-Racing Game by Lecalat 2018-04-23T10:27:12Z

This is so difficult ^^' I could barely get to the 2nd level. Awesome graphics and idea though, I really like it
