LD50 — Delay the inevitable

The Demon Trainer by drentsoft 2022-04-06T10:54:23Z

Unfortunately my keyboard doesn't allow for more than a few key presses at once and as such the star pattern is where I had to stop playing. That said...I thought the input system was cleverly designed and I enjoyed what I was able to play. Great submission!

@mibehu: Agreed the controls are a bit weird. With the analogue stick of an Xbox controller however it's not too bad - but still very challenging as you say.

My goal with this game was to learn how to move a character around a point. While I've learned some of that now...it hasn't made for a fun player experience.

@IzhVaryag @oguzhan-kalkuz: Appreciate the feedback. A fire rate limiter may have helped here.

@matt-e Taking notes. Thanks for the constructive feedback 👍

Thanks for the kind words and constructive feedback @sigill. Powerups that would give you a temporary speed boost or a temporary clone/mirror player were planned but I didn't quite get there in time.

I'm reviewing the LDJam rules (first timer) and it seems we are permitted to do bug fixes but not feature additions. It sounds like I can address the immediate shuttle spawning issue in this publication, but powerups and such will have to be published in a separate release.

Great use of the theme. Once I figured out how to upgrade my jump skill, the rest of it came together. I like how things got progressively more dire visually then leading to the planet's explosion. Very well done 👍

Cool concept and execution 👍

Great use of the theme and execution. The best particles, lights and general aesthetics I've experience in the submissions so far.

CryptoHunk Market Platform by jabsatz 2022-04-05T11:46:21Z

Always fun to see games that explore the crypto experience. I made a clicker a while back that explored how the market reacts to tasty crypto memes so can relate. The bored ape social commentary was my favourite part of this. Very creative!

Gameplay-wise, the points I want to make have already been touched on.

Otherwise, I appreciated your CC0 asset curation and crediting those assets in-game. Menu systems definitely aren't necessary for game jams, but the time taken shows that you care and as such is worth noting I think.

Compiled on Ubuntu 22.04 and reached a high score of 12.

I wonder if you would get more plays if you were to provide an AppImage binary or similar?

This had me chuckling at moments. A fun submission and creative use of the theme 👍
