LD38 — A Small World

Legend of the Mountain by Zathnic 2017-05-14T22:06:02Z

Unfortunately I had huge screen tear issues on Windows :(

small World of Underbury by Listonos 2017-05-05T04:06:11Z

I played all the way until everyone was dead except for the main Lord of Underbury. I liked it! Here's some notes: - it's too hard to kill the boss at the end. Based on the story I expected his stats to weaken when you killed the Barons, etc. In the end it's just too much spamming - the slow text is a cool effect but wears thin by the end of the game - I'd like to see more risk/reward dynamics - What about adding a more nethack like interface so you can always see gold, status, etc. - I'm so glad Tab was implemented - A web gui would make the game more accessible

It's a great start! I'd like to see it expanded

Feather Fighter by Ellian 2017-05-15T23:12:06Z

Great game, smooth controls! I got stuck on a block though, took a while before I was 'rescued' by an egg. This could be great with shorter levels, more enemies, and a progression system! Reminds me of a refreshed super crate box.

Natantes Paradisum by strong99 2017-05-15T23:12:11Z

Looks nice and I liked how there was a mini tutorial.

Planetclimb by DMajor 2017-05-16T00:29:54Z

I like the walk around the planet mechanic

Vertical City by LiamLime 2017-05-16T00:05:49Z

Cool idea but too much waiting. Add a theme and some unlockables though and it would be fun! I love building games.

Aircraft Carrier Simulator by superchihuahua 2017-05-16T00:47:55Z

Cool idea, buggy as all hell.

Patricia the princess by Julien R 2017-05-16T00:32:43Z

Ah, is there only one level? I guess it is a small world! Seriously, good to see a female protagonist.

Little Italy by hiki911 2017-05-16T00:19:12Z

I FLIPPED THE CAR!

The Snow Globe Conflict by Tomahawk2001913 2017-05-16T00:32:56Z

I like how even if you win it is still game over. :)

Our Cramped Little World by ret44 2017-05-15T23:44:29Z

I could not figure out how to have something show up on the your task sine. but building the flat was fun.

Lab 493 by Remicy 2017-05-14T21:45:23Z

Nice little game -- not bad for 10 hours!

X-Pressed Delivery by GabrielBucsan 2017-05-15T23:58:01Z

Why does the gender and sexuality matter at all?

Planet Hoppers by Snowdrama 2017-05-14T21:59:32Z

Could be a fun game with some polish -- tighter controls mostly

IN CHARACTER by superjoebob 2017-05-15T23:47:38Z

Fantastic idea! I played it with my son for a while and we both laughed a lot.

Sir Shrink-A-Lot by narve 2017-05-16T01:19:02Z

I like that it gets harder the further you get. Surprisingly deep!

FANCY SEEING YOU HERE by funkeh 2017-05-16T01:01:13Z

Good storytelling. Creepy story

The Time of Our Lives by tddawson 2017-05-16T00:14:49Z

Thanks for such a unique game!

Winter by cdrch 2017-05-16T00:23:22Z

Camera was too bad, I couldn't play it :(

The Life Amoebic by Baby Dino Herd 2017-05-05T02:53:16Z

Great atmosphere. Very relaxing. I'm not sure how much of a game it is vs. a sandbox or enjoyable toy... I wonder how it would play if there was some sort of enemy or competing ameboids trying to steal your food! Just an idea. Thanks for the game!

Solar Wind by flusap 2017-05-15T23:50:48Z

At first, I was like WTF is going on. As I played more, I fell in love. Great ideas, I like the exploration of new planet mechanics mechanic. Lighten up the ship controls a bit more and make it easier to see how fast you are going and this could be really good.

Kid Monsters Smash Party by Moaid_T4 2017-05-15T23:23:32Z

Punching buildings is always fun!

Get Off my Planet! by Magehuntz 2017-05-16T00:06:47Z

Nice game. I really liked the music it fit with the game nicely.

Get Off my Planet! by Magehuntz 2017-05-16T00:08:54Z

I made it to wave 13 with 10 enemies left.

SheetAdventure by DMIT 2017-05-16T00:40:00Z

I.... I can't get it to create a wall or a pistol?

Pong of Gods by OptimusCrask 2017-05-16T00:42:47Z

Cool idea. Wish there was local multiplayer!

5-Minute Civilization by Stevie Bushman 2017-04-24T13:46:54Z

@Haydossy the default settings work well, you can change them to have fun with the world editor and it really helped with testing to enable nukes right away :) I did want to add more descriptions as to what each item does, but, well, I ran out of time!

5-Minute Civilization by Stevie Bushman 2017-04-24T13:47:21Z

@OWLverlord Thanks! This time my main focus was on polish, so I'm glad it worked

5-Minute Civilization by Stevie Bushman 2017-04-27T15:16:39Z

@jupiter-hadley thanks for having my game on your show! I sent the link around the office and enjoyed your commentary and watching you figure out my game.

5-Minute Civilization by Stevie Bushman 2017-04-30T16:30:52Z

@daniel-alhadeff I would like to improve the AI for the next iteration. If you want to make it more difficult now you can increase the number of barbarians you fight. Also I tend to make my games too hard so I did try to make it easier this time around :)

One Small Step by Tetristar-Interactive 2017-05-14T21:56:08Z

Fun idea. It took me awhile to figure out what the harvest action did, and why did you make the sun eat my ships :P

Ant Colony Blitz by gread72 2017-05-15T23:16:51Z

I also got really excited about SimAnts! No lawnmower killing my ants this time.

LD40 — The more you have, the worse it is

Nabi by Amir Bayareh 2017-12-05T19:40:20Z

Good game! I love the graphics and the mechanic is well done. I don't really see a need for lives though, especially with the spikes and hard difficulty. Using time as a score and having infinite lives for us less good players, or a way to gain lives / health back would be what I'd suggest.

crowglary by blackoptics8 2017-12-07T23:24:07Z

Was there a goal or do you just have fun running around with a friend? Maybe post a little explanation to help us raters out :)

Travel Light by Shivur 2017-12-07T23:10:35Z

Is there any stores or anything or does money just slow you down? I was hoping to find cool stuff while exploring

Bomb Robot by BoxedMeatRevolution 2017-12-07T23:20:00Z

Fun game but you pull no punches. It seems like I didn't have enough time to move to where I wanted to be by the time the bombs started exploding on his head

Pickup Chicks by DanielHart 2017-12-15T00:59:54Z

Cute graphics. Gameplay is pretty simple but we love chickens.

ViKing of Norway by NamInUz 2017-12-07T23:30:31Z

I got brutally eaten. The chopped down trees look like they have a 4 on it which confused me for a while. I spent a long time punching trees and then a long time trying to cut down the already cut trees.

SHOPPOTRON by basecase 2017-12-05T03:53:55Z

It works well! Reminds me why I hate shopping in stores this time of year. I enjoyed the awkward controls for the robot. It gets difficult fast with the battery draining speed.

The Haunting of Jerk Miners by FunInfusedGames 2017-12-05T04:01:30Z

It's like reverse dig-dug. I always hated rocks in mining games and now I can enjoy them.

Autonomous by The Dankasaur 2017-12-07T23:06:40Z

I like the theme. I like building the space station. The gas requirements seem extreme though and the game starts off very slowly. Can we get shields or a way to repair ships? I'd like to see this game polished more because it could be great fun with some more work

Unstoppable Battle of the Neon Arena by Ragoniard 2017-12-15T01:12:36Z

My son and I really enjoyed this! I love the semi-destructable terrain

LD43 — Sacrifices must be made

A 15 Year Voyage From Mars by Pavocado 2018-12-05T20:21:21Z

I like the concept, but I don't think I could die, even when jettisoning the control room! Also level 4 just finished itself without me doing anything. Maybe the weight isn't resetting properly?

Anyways, I enjoyed it enough to play all 5 levels with dubious success :) Great humor and it's a nice simple game. Thanks for giving us levels too!

Space Goat: Coast to Coast by Stevie Bushman 2018-12-04T06:50:46Z

@kambing Thanks for your feedback! It's a bit of an experiment with things to figure out what they do kind of game.

You can save the snails for bonus points and because it's fun to try to protect them.

Missiles follow your mouse cursor, but you have to figure that out too :)

The spaceship can't be controlled

The goal is to get from one Coast (the start) to the other Coast (the end) while saving as many critters as possible.

Or, just build the coolest ship :)

Space Captain Leslie in ... Disasteroids!! by skettyNmeebs 2018-12-04T07:06:28Z

Wow what an amazing intro! It also feels really good when you shoot the other ships down.

Mirror by Micorynne 2018-12-04T06:29:44Z

Good start for mood!

Bloodcaster by YongminPark 2018-12-04T06:56:05Z

Wow! What a great take on Breakout! Feels really good and looks great with the colors you chose. How do you get to the next room? I wasn't sure if the skulls keep spawning because I didn't kill them fast enough or if they just spawn for a while. I'm still working on my optimal strategy.

I Am Bird by Acr515 2018-12-11T19:41:18Z

I enjoyed your game! My biggest issue is with balance. Upgrading to woodpecker makes the game so much harder as the enemies become bullet sponges but don't give out more coins. It's better to stay as a flock of sparrows to rake in that sweet sweet coin.

Long Live The King! by Player 2 2018-12-04T19:41:28Z

I really like the concept! Frustrating when you mess up and the one lemming you need dies XD. Would have loved a speed-up button for multiple playthroughs. I'd *love* to see additional levels for this too, maybe some easier ones to start!

Everything Hurts ! by Michno 2018-12-04T06:42:12Z

I like the concept a lot. The controls could be tighter, and can you please start us at the start of the level when we die instead of at the beginning? I'd play a lot longer if you were a bit nicer to us :) Great!

Chaos Shelter by Sockyman 2018-12-05T09:45:46Z

What does the x/10 mean on the actions? I enjoyed keeping my survivors alive until 22 days.

Fly Lightly by Sitarra 2018-12-05T20:26:18Z

Nice simple game! I would love a multiplayer version of this with my son :)

Die or Die (or not, whatever) by samaranin 2018-12-04T07:00:42Z

Really cute pixel people!

Death Metal Crowd Pusher by WizardOfOzzy 2018-12-04T06:22:59Z

Nice graphics and sound

Kamikaze Colonies by VetherGen 2018-12-04T06:48:07Z

Very good! Very hard to control but it was fun to try to figure it out. I caused more deaths than I saved... My only complaint is the asteroids come in fast and it takes so long to launch a ship. Bookmarking to play again :)

Expedite by Bananananer_Joe 2018-12-04T06:18:51Z

Cute, I made it through all the levels. It would have been nice to have a faster slime 'load' at the beginning - it's punishing to have to wait each time when I want to play. It seems like shooting slimes down while jumping is OP - the first level is the best with the switch and little puzzles.

The lord of Possessions by cigsandflowers 2018-12-04T05:42:58Z

Looks really good but the game is too tough for poor old me! I was happy when I found out that E skipped through the text when I played again.

LD45 — Start with nothing

Untitled Zombie Game by Stevie Bushman 2019-10-08T01:23:56Z

Wow! This is the best game I've ever played! 13/13 stars!!!!
