Really nice game! Reminded me a bit of Guild of Dungeoneering. It would be nice to have a quicker restart of the game or maybe even just the fight when you lose. But other than that it's really well made!

Really nice game! Reminded me a bit of Guild of Dungeoneering. It would be nice to have a quicker restart of the game or maybe even just the fight when you lose. But other than that it's really well made!
Overall I liked the game. However it felt like the balancing is a bit off, because you can get all the upgrades pretty quickly and then cruise through the next few minutes of the game. The pistol seems to have a very low range, which made fighting the flying sorcerers and other flying enemies pretty annoying after a while. But I liked the spell mechanic, especially that the better ones were really expensive and dangerous to use.
It's a fun little game. However, I think it starts out too slow/easy in the beginning. But once I got to round 50 it became way more interesting. In my opinion it could even get harder after that with faster enemies or enemies that can take more than one hit. Also, the game crashed for me when I stood on the upper part of the right wall and an enemy hit me from below.
Yeah, besides balancing, (which is always insanely difficult, especially during a game jam) it's an awesome game. The graphics are beautiful, the audio is amazing and game itself is pretty entertaining.
Nice little game. A bit hard but other than that, really entertaining.
Really nice game with a great art style. If you don't mind me asking: How did you implement the viewing cones for the enemies? Because I did something very similar once for a project and I would be very interested in how you made it.
Awesome game, with a lot of little things that make it feel really cool! Very difficult, but that's the way I like those games.
@krassenstein Thanks! Yeah, we actually thought about bringing it to mobile.
@spyranteros Thank you! in the options menu you can increase the volume a little bit, but yes, the web version is a bit quiet for some reason.
@epiphanyg That's exactly what we used as inspiration :smile:
I really liked this game. I love tower defense games and have played a lot of them, but I have never seen anything like the feeding mechanic, so good job on coming up with such a cool mechanic! I also really liked the art style. The only negative thing I could find was the balancing, since you basically only need to spam the basic tower until they kill everything and then just keep feeding the blob. But balancing during a game jam is always an incredibly hard task.
Yeah, the mood and the audio are insanely good!
Pretty cool game. I was a bit confused at the beginning, but after some tries I got the hang of it and managed to finish the whole gaming without dying anymore. It's a nice educative kind of tower defense, which I really like. The later levels could be a bit more difficult, but other than that it's a really solid entry!

That's a pretty cool game. Nice clean art, cool music, not too easy and not too hart. Well done! I really liked the tutorial.
One issue that I found is that you just lose items if you click the button multiple times. And it would be really nice if you could press 1 and 2 to select the items. Because if you have to click it and then click to place it, it can get pretty hectic.
But it's a really solid game, good job!
As the others said: Really cool game, but unfortunately I also couldn't beet level 2 due to getting stuck.
I love this game! After a couple of tries I managed to get to 42 probes :)
seedsofhope.PNG
I managed to improve my high score a little bit :)
seedsofhope2.PNG
No, I'm totally not addicted, and I can stop whenever I want.
seedsofhope3.PNG
What a nice little game. It took me a couple of tries but in the end I managed to beat it :) I just had a small bug a couple of times, that one input got stuck and I kept walking into one direction until i pressed that button again.
Really cool game. I especially liked the audio. Really well done! I got to 294 :)
Really nice game concept. I love rhythm games and haven't seen any in a ludum dare yet. Drums and keyboard are unfortunately really hard. I think it would be a good idea to lower the used keys on lower difficulties. Also volume slider would be great. But other than that a really solid entry. Good job!
That's an amazing game. I got to 32 in solo and moving the black one in the opposite direction of the mouse really messes with my brain haha! And as mentioned before, being able to restart quicker without the animation would be great.
What an absolutely lovely game. The restart button could be a bit more noticeable but other than that it's a solid game with a unique art style and sound design :D
Very nice game! I managed to beat the final boss in the second try :)
rebirthism.PNG
That's a really nice game. I managed to get to the 4th screen, but it's really difficult if you don't know where to click at the beginning of a screen. I think if there were checkpoints after every screen, this game could be amazing.
Yeah, also getting a 404
@c42 Wow! That's insane! I didn't think anyone would ever get to level 20. Good job and thank you so much for playing!
@firetwoonenine There is actually a tiny chance that cars try to switch in to your lane when you honk. Just for fun and to keep things realistic :D
@wabble For not spawning in each other, I simply check if there is already a car on the new spawn position and if so, look for another position. During the game they could only bump into each other when switching lanes, because all of them have the same speed. And for that I have a List of all the cars in each lane. And when a car wants to switch into a new lane, I check if there would be a car near its new position and if so, they just don't switch.
Really nice game. But it can get very difficult depending on the order in which you add the parts.
Really nice game. The flame corridor and the last level took me a couple of tries but I managed to beat it :) I really liked that the game has controller support, because it felt way better than on the keyboard.
Amazing game, and very challenging. I made it to level 8 so far but I'm definitely coming back to finish it!
The music is nice and fits the game perfectly, the visuals are great but the UI is just on another level. I don't think I have seen another Ludum Dare game with a UI that's as nice and clean as this one. I especially like the Tutorial arrows to the special nodes.
Great job!
I have a quick question about the level design: When building the levels, did you start with the sequence and built the level around it, or did you first build the level and looked if you can find a fitting sequence?
And I finally managed to beat the game (thanks to the hints) :D

This might be my favorite Ludum Dare game ever. I love making games with gravity but I never thought of steering a spaceship by moving the planets. This is so amazing!.
I don't even know what's more fun. Moving the planets around in a way that causes the rocket to just zoom across the screen or carefully trying to get a stable orbit.
The music is also very chill and fits perfectly to the game.
The comets can be a bit annoying but otherwise it would probably be too easy. Is their orbit also affected by the planets? Also do the planets all have the same gravitational force or is it different from planet to planet?
Once again I can't tell you enough how amazing this game is. Thank you so much for making it!
I really like that game. It takes a bit to understand what's going on but then it's really fun and engaging. I managed to beat all the levels except the last one with >90% efficiency. But the last one is really tough to get a high score :D
quantum.PNG
Yeah I'm too slow for that xD But I did a quick 1-2-3 1-4-5 combination and that worked pretty well :D
And I almost beat your first level score, but I'm getting too slow now
1st.PNG
Nice game! Took me a couple of tries but I managed to get the high score :)
Great game! The art is nice, the music is phenomenal and I really like the difficulty. It's challenging, but not impossible.
As others already mentioned, the control scheme takes some time getting used to, especially on a German keyboard, where z and y are swapped :D
The 3rd screen was the toughest for me but after some tries I figured our a route how to beat that screen consistently. And then after a few more tried I managed to beat the game :)
soroboro.PNG
Awesome game, really addictive and I finally managed to get the high score :)
depthscraper.PNG
I don't think I've ever seen such a frustrating and amazing game in the Ludum Dare. Really great job! I even managed to get a really good time in my first try. If it had an online leaderboard it would be perfect!
deepest sword.PNG
Nice relaxing game, once you get a bit deeper :D
Is there a way to win the game? I think I saw someone at ~960m but barely missed him.
Also I don't know if it's on purpose but the backwards swimming sharks are hilarious!
Really great game. I struggled a bit at the last level but eventually, I got it done. Really good job! Also the music fits really well.
pocket.PNG
Really cute art style! I think I rescued all the animals but some kind of end screen would have been nice.
Unbenannt.PNG
Once again an awesome game! I only got to 746m so far but mark my words, I'll get that high score
@cocapasteque Damn right I will :D
@arthurds Yeah, the side hugging strat is pretty good :D
ffs...
After your amazing game in the last ludum dare, I had to check out, what you did this time and once again, it's really great! The music is awesome and I really like that you show the timer in the end. After the second try I managed to finish it in 141 seconds.
ziggurat.PNG
Really nice game. Kinda feels like a reverse icy tower :D
Really cool game. Pretty difficult at some points and I wish there were checkpoints but otherwise really well done!
Interesting game. The music is phenomenal and the combat system is also pretty good. It took me a few tries to get the timing right but then I was able to finish the game. Great job!
@jvdwijk Awesome! We also cleaned up the fake entries in the leaderboard and you're first now :)
@jamjamem Thank you so much! Hearing that really made my day and I'm glad you're all enjoying our little game :) Also those are some insane scores, good job!
I absolutely love games like this! And you executed it brilliantly. I don't really have any suggestions for the game, because it's absolutely well done! The leaderboard is also great! And even though I (Dalon) didn't manage to get first (yet), I managed to last for 69 turns which is nice :)
That's a really cute game but heck those weeds :D
Really nice game! Some sort of timer or even a leaderboard would be absolutely amazing. Also I basically managed to stabilize by just having one house left and immediately killing everyone who spawns :D
Unbenannt.PNG
Yeah, that's really a fun little game! Well done!
Really nice game with amazing graphics! I managed to beat it on my second try :)
Really cool game, which fits the theme very nicely! I managed to get to 70 seconds after a couple of tries. One thing I would change is having different buttons for sending the units and rotating the camera. But other than that, very well done!
Great game! but I couldn't get more 48 seconds xD Really well done!
Unbenannt.PNG
I can just echo what all the others have already said! Great game with lovely visuals and audio. It also fits the theme perfectly!
Ok, I give up (for now). I can basically speedrun this game now but can't make the last jump. It's a very nice game and way too cute for how difficult it is. Well done!
Unbenannt.PNG
This game is really cool and the music is amazing! Thanks to me not reading the text first, I didn't realize the smiley faces were powerups, so I also avoided them in my first try, which made the game very hard, really fast xD But afterwards I played it correctly and got a pretty good score :) It would be really awesome if this game had some kind of online leaderboard though.
Unbenannt.PNG
The game looks really amazing and after 2 tries I managed to beat the game :)
Unbenannt.PNG
This game is awesome. I like TD games and you executed it brilliantly. The art style is amazing and the fact the escaped monsters remove space on the field is amazing. However I kind of broke the game and had to just let it run for quite some time until I finally lost :D
Unbenannt.PNG
Absolutely the funniest game I've played so far in this LD. Great job!
This is amazing and fits the theme perfectly! The only thing I things I would suggest is to have some sort of quick start to the endless mode after beating the story once and an online leaderboard would be amazing! Other than that, really well done!
That is the cutest game that I have played so far! The music also fits perfectly. Some kind of ending screen with how long you lasted would be great though. But other than that, really well done!
Great game! Like many already said, the difficulty could be higher, but balancing is always tricky. But I really like the concept of the structures orbiting around the planet in with varying speeds and directions. That makes the whole game a lot more dynamic than regular TD games. Also the graphics are really lovely. Well done!
Fun little game, but it takes a few tries to get into it. But after some time I managed to beat it :)

Ok, this is absolutely amazing! By far the best voice acting I've ever heard in an LD game!
Great game, but I have no idea how anyone managed to get to 2:42 xD 2:20 is the best I could do.
This is an amazing game with great audio and graphics! Also I don't know if this was intentional but it reminded me a lot of this xkcd comic: https://xkcd.com/695/
Really well done TD, good job! As mentioned before, having the towers cost more when others are in range is absolutely brilliant and changes the way to think about tower placement completely. The only thing that would make this game even more awesome would be some kind of online leaderboard. But otherwise it's fantastic. Also I think lasting for more than 6 minutes is pretty good :D
Unbenannt.PNG
This is amazing! The sound effects, the art, the minigames. It's just brilliant! I just wish you had a leaderboard :D I got to day 49 and thought that was pretty good Unbenannt.PNG
I managed to improve my score a little bit. But I got really lucky with the minigames :D
Unbenannt.PNG
Managed to get to the end with shortcuts and tried forever to get on the leaderboard. I give up for now, but mark my words: I will do it at some point. But its a really great game with an awesome soundtrack!
That is so awesome! Great job! You could probably just release it like it is right now and no one would notice that it's a jam game.
Nice little game! As already mentioned it's a bit hard to know what you're aiming at in the beginning. Also one annoying thing is that you fire the currently selected meteor, when you click to select a different one. But other than that, it's a pretty good game. Well done!
This is really cool and looks absolutely amazing! Great job!
The game itself is solid, but the fact that you made it into a multiplayer game is insane. Great job!
Pretty cool game! It would really be great if game ended when all the pods have escaped. Because I had to wait forever forever for the ending screen, but I finally got it :)
Unbenannt.PNG
Really cool game! Hearing the beeping sound when reverse your spaceship is absolutely hilarious!
Really cool game and especially the menu looks absolutely amazing! I just had the feeling that for some reason, the melee aliens hit me sooner than expected. Also, some kind of leaderboard would be amazing. Other than that it's a lot of fun and I got up to a score of 187 :) Also I loved the googly eyes on the cactus :D
This is insanely good, especially for a compo game! It looks amazing, sounds amazing and plays amazing. Really well done!
Really great game! The tutorial is absolutely hilarious and the music is amazing! Well done! It just feels a bit too easy for me, but balancing a jam game is pretty much impossible.
Absolutely hilarious game with amazing graphics. Great job!
Pretty cool game. Got to rank 3 for now but arthurds' highscore is just too insane :D
That's a really fun game and in addition to what all the others have already said, I have to commend you on the menu. That looks really clean and polished for a jam game! Well done!
What a cute game! Great job! As others have mentioned, the time bar could be bigger or more prominent, because without the comments, I wouldn't have noticed it. But otherwise it's a really well made game!
This is by far the best game this LD that I have played so far! The graphics are simple but super clean and clear, the audio fits perfectly and the gameplay is just amazing. Such a simple concept in theory but beautifully executed. The difficulty ramps up just in the right pace, so that starting over doesn't feel annoying and it always has the "one-more-round" feeling. Also the different enemy types are awesome. The only thing that would make this game even better is an online leaderboard. But other than that it's pretty much perfect.
And I managed to get a score of 54.6 which I'm pretty proud of :)
Unbenannt.PNG
That's fun little game, which fits the theme perfectly! I would have liked to be able to trigger the second wind ability manually. Also it would be awesome, if this game had an online leaderboard. But otherwise it's really amazing! And I managed to get a score of 95 :)
Unbenannt.PNG
Really amazing game! I got to 85 seconds after a couple of tries. Dash on space bar or right click would probably be better and an online leaderboard would be amazing. Other than that, really well done!
So many kitties haha :D Really nice game
Great game! Like the others said, some checkpoints would be nice so you don't have to start from the beginning every time but otherwise it's amazing. Great job!
Edit: Just saw that you already put in checkpoints in the updated version. That makes the game so much better!
Really awesome game! Sometimes the balls bounce a bit strangely but otherwise it's absolutely amazing. After more tries than I'd like to admit, I finally managed to get first place :D
score.PNG
Really great game! Looks amazing and it's a lot of fun. I'll definitely finish all the levels later
Really nice game. The different enemies and their little animations are great. It took a little bit but after a while it got pretty difficult. But I managed to last just over 400 seconds, which seemed pretty good :D
score.PNG
Really fun little game, great job! I like that upgrades can be good, bad or both. One thing I found, how you can basically play the game forever without enemies though, is to skip all bad upgrades by just waiting out the 10 seconds during upgrade selection :D
Awesome little game. Just wished there were more levels :D
Very very good game! Brilliantly executed theme and a lot of fun to play. I just wish there were more levels. Great job!
Amazing game! A lot of fun and really good music! Managed to get to beat 38.
score.PNG
Really great and clever puzzle game! It took me a bit of time but I managed to finish it eventually :D
It would great to maybe display the time it took at the end.
win.png
This game is absolutely amazing and I can't wait to speedrun it some more. Looks great, sounds great, plays great. The only thing that I would like to have is a little dead zone for controllers, because at least for mine, I sometimes walked left without even touching the stick. But that might also be because my controller is already old. But even the fact that you added controller support is amazing!
Ok, I think that was the best game I've played so far in this Ludum Dare! That was absolutely amazing. You could probably just add some levels and already release it. Fantastic job!!
Absolutely fantastic game! There are so many things that really stand out. The graphics, the music and the voice lines are lovely, the theme was implemented amazingly and the game itself is super addictive. A bit frustrating at times but in a good way :D
Also I really love some of the little things, like the links is your credits menu or also that your game doesn't start at 100% volume. It's also super cool that you added an online leaderboard this time! I'm only rank 3 for now but I'll probably play it a lot, just like I did with your last game.
I only wished it was possible to restart the game even faster, but other than that it's phenomenal! Really great job!!
score.PNG
noooooo...so close to beating d0lega's score...
I will get it at some point!!
score.PNG
Amazing concept and game! Controlling both hands separately takes some getting used to but after a while it worked really well for me. I just wish that the difficulty would increase over time, because I basically had to lose on purpose. But otherwise, really well done, I loved it!
score.PNG
Really nice game, amazing tutorial and really addictive :D I Managed to get up to level 15 :) score.PNG
Really cool game with great graphics and atmosphere! Great job!
This game plays and feels amazing! Currently 4th place but I think I can do better. I only wish you could see the leaderboard without having to lose a game first.
score.PNG
Absolutely amazing game! Looks great, sounds great, feels great. Great job. The only slight "complaint" I have is that's it's a bit too short :D
win.png
Really fun little game, which gets pretty hard quickly :D I love the demons and the music.
I managed to get up to 53 seconds after a few tries which felt pretty good
score.PNG
Really amazing game. Like it was already mentioned, moving the letters around felt a bit weird but otherwise it's awesome! Great job!
Really nice game! Managed to get up to 36 after a few tries
score.PNG
Really cool concept, I enjoyed it a lot. The intro was really good (amazing voice!!). I just wished the difficulty would ramp up a lot faster. But I feel like the game has a lot of potential!
This is absolutely amazing!!! One of the most unique games on LD ever! Great job!
AIGalleryPainting-2022-10-08_20-59-28.png
Really interesting and educational game :D Would be great so have some sort of score in the end, how many birds you typed correctly. Great job!
Really great game! I absolutely loved the concept, especially in the first part of the game. One thing that could be nice is to be able to control the rewind feature so you don't go all the way back every time, but only however long you press the button. And a quick reset button for speedrunning would be amazing. But otherwise it's fantastic!
So far my best time is 2:39, let's see if I can get faster
Awesome game with some serious WarioWare vibes. Loved all the minigames and the different variations of the music.
Managed to get a score of 93 after a few tries :)
score.PNG
Very funny game, which reminded me a lot of the WarioWare games. Great job! I especially liked some of the later puzzles, like the flag chasing you or clicking the button exactly 20 times :D I just wish there would be more levels.
win.png
This is a really nice game. Pretty challenging at first, but after a while I got the hang of it and got pretty good. My highest score so far is 90 but I think I can get it higher.
score.PNG
Like the others said, a little slow unfortunately, but otherwise a nice little game
Like the others already mentioned, the controls are a bit difficult to get used to, but otherwise it's a really nice and funny platformer!
Really nice game, super addictive and also very stressful haha. After a couple of tries I got pretty good at it. I just wished the bombs would move faster, but them being slow also adds nicely to the pressure. The only I found is that the stats in the end didn't seem to get reset after a restart but just kept on adding up. But with a clean new start, I got a pretty nice score.
score.PNG
AMAZING GAME! I love fishing minigames in all games and you made a great one. Also a really nice touch to add a timer! Awesome job!
Screenshot 2023-01-10 151641.png
This is a really nice little point and click game. As the others have already mentioned, it's a bit short and easy but the mood is amazing. Great job!
Really fun and stressfull game!! It's awesome that you use have a leaderboard!
Insanely polished game with amazing graphics and animations! Great job!
Awesome tower defense game! The start was pretty hard but then I got the hang of it and managed to get to wave 42 :)
Screenshot 2023-01-10 140829.png
Really nice game! Got up to 1750 after a couple of tries
Screenshot 2023-01-10 142404.png
Super fun game! And once I figured out you can scroll out and used the "just fly backwards"-strategy, I got pretty far and could have probably made it further if I didn't get cocky hahaha
Screenshot 2023-01-24 080608.png
Really fun little game :D
Amazing game and a lot of fun! Trying to optimize the path to the crystal is awesome
Screenshot 2023-01-11 125743.png
Really nice little game. It's a lot of fun to blast people away haha!
Definitely clicked on fish. Gonna have to tryhard that again later
That was a wonderful little game! Great job!
Really satisfying game! Great job!
Reall nice game! I only got to 80 points so far but I will play the game again later and then tryhard it :D
Really fun game! I especially liked the way the difficulty ramps up every time you clear the field.
Screenshot 2023-01-11 081949.png
Super funny game :D I really enjoyed that. Great job!
Really nice game. As others have already mentioned the controls are sometimes a bit wonky but otherwise it's a lot of fun. Great job!
Really amazing game! Properly controlling both things separatly takes a bit of time but after a while you get used to it and the the game is evene more awesome
Nice game! I just wish the camera was zoomed out a bit more so it's easier to avoid the cows at high speeds. Also it might be fun to not limit the speed :D
Screenshot 2023-01-11 083218.png
Really nice game! The difficulty of the enemies feels hard but fair and managable. I wish there would be some sort of timer so you could be able to speedrun the game :D Great job!
Really nice game! Well done! Will definitly try hard the game later
The music is absolutely amazing!! So much fun!
Really fun game! I greatly enjoy sucking out entire buildings hahaha
Really fun game, but super hard :D Would be amazing to have a timer so you could really try to speedrun the game
