LD38 — A Small World

Command Ant Conquer by JuDelCo 2017-05-17T15:22:22Z

all 5* game, the most enjoyable i've played here. congrats!

Dream World by Mordokay 2017-05-13T19:49:24Z

Love the seed, the dreaminess with a great carousel kind-of music and the superb graphics witha very fresh design.

Ecowsystem by concalf 2017-05-13T19:56:05Z

nice little game with a very pleasant and cheerful graphics as the strongest point. would be nice to have some kind of mid-achievements though.

Picto World by Phaix 2017-05-17T15:31:55Z

Congrats for the great art.

Cloud Garden by dwemthy 2017-05-15T17:48:12Z

Huh, that was something new :) Nice work, impressive for such a short time. I only wish i could make cloud scooters and cruise around :)

An Adventurer's Exodus by Aggrathon 2017-05-10T19:35:37Z

Very nice attention grabbing game. Love the world map and the fun battle system.

There's some repetition but this is a fantastic game for a LD!

I'd add some music, otherwise perfect :)

SpiderSpider by atropos 2017-05-04T18:47:03Z

Cool idea with the world being a spider web! I only wish there was a real spider crawling around :)

Bug report: - no sounds, big fat error shown up when clicking on "Audio" in the menu.

End of a World by mikolak 2017-05-10T15:28:30Z

Thank you all for your comments so far! We are aware the game takes a bit time to start, which is a result of unoptimised terrain genartion method... but it got lower priority before, say, being able to win the game ;-)

Reading that you got close to winning is a good sign for the balance, but shame you did not experience the joy of escape from the planet ;-)

Thanks again!

End of a World by mikolak 2017-05-16T17:51:05Z

shame @ccglp - we are aware that there's some unnecessary resource overuse while generating the planet mask, but since that was 72 hours only optimizations did not have the highest priority :D Maybe you could try different browser?

Zombies In Space by JesseyCool 2017-05-04T18:28:35Z

All in all impressive game for the jam!

I can only agree with what my predecessors said that it gets a bit repetitive after few rounds, but i kinda liked that "hidden" manual for the out-of-the-blue vending machine in the middle of space, surrounded by zombies :)

More memory required by lolfrad 2017-05-04T18:38:27Z

Cool game and good execution, except I could not get pass level 3 :( Either i'm too stupid for it, or cannot find a right resolution for the game to be able to see memory slot on the far right (on the far left i can see only tip of the button)

Feed the dog by aviktorov 2017-05-10T18:47:46Z

Got it! Got the meet!!!

Fun, silly, game :)

Impressive you managed to create an AI :)

Few things worth improving: - no sound - sometime very weird behavior of the dog and camera - maybe some animation of movement - [minor] would be nice to add the keymap on the page serving the game

Super Kaiju Dunk City by emarcotte 2017-05-10T18:34:09Z

Absolutely fantastic art! that is both sound and graphics.

Just why small world :)?

Even though I'm not a big fan of guitar hero games this one was so appealing it was hard not to play for few times!

Fantastic job!

To do list by Finlal 2017-05-05T19:49:03Z

Fantastic!

Curses and Coconuts by testlab 2017-05-10T18:40:41Z

nice game. few things I'd like to see improved:

- a bit cumbersome steeriung with diagonal moves feeling a bit weird - maybe some "life" of the main hero, so that it's not just one hit to die - purpose :)

pros: - nice graphics - cool tropical vibe

Protector by Ben_Hodge 2017-05-10T19:13:33Z

Fun little game, especially when the huge asteroids start falling down :) Was a bit confused as what to do, but as far as i understand this guy is made of pure awesomness and he just absorbs eveything with his body ;-)?

Does this Upgrade machine ever work?

And yes - i jumped out of my little platform to the unity world ;-)

No Parking by clyde 2017-05-05T19:11:46Z

Impossible to finish and also a bit confusing on what is the goal of the game.

Pros: cool idea, nice graphics and music!

Statera by Kristian David 2017-05-15T16:29:45Z

cool game, I like how you managed to make a very coherent graphical experience using 3rd party assets. It's a rare talent :)

In the game what I lack is a better sense of having control over what is happening. I had 3 takes on it and I am not sure on what should I be doing - sudden explosion of one species was highly unexpected and puzzling :)

Maybe the tutorial would help :)

Murder by TheGameGoyal 2017-05-17T14:22:33Z

omg, that was creepy. very nice pixel art, impressive results for compo!

"Comme le monde est petit ! " Smalltalk Supermarket by dray 2017-05-10T15:31:57Z

Great game! And pretty amazing for a LD to end up with such a result!

The steering could be a bit improved to feel more natural, but otherwise i liked the plastic hand reaching for products ;-)

Shame I did not beat it in 4 takes ;-)

oh and btw, Mac version works! you can consider it tested ;-)

Dinonaut: Defender of Celestial Dwarves by zzcalvinzz 2017-05-15T17:33:30Z

Very, very, very fun game! Fast, great music, nice pixel art, good-old catch the eggs type of game we all played in the 90ties :)

Well done!

Terraform: a Small World by DuffJones 2017-05-04T18:07:25Z

Little problems with the game ratio/size - the game showed up badly on a regular 15" macbook.

Locker C-18 by simonmnt 2017-05-16T10:12:22Z

cool game, only if the page wouldn't scroll when going down (maybe WSAD instead of arrows to control?).

Islands in Equilibrium by NekuSoul 2017-05-13T19:35:42Z

Very cool game, totally enjoyable (tho couldn't get pass “only 2 more islands to go” :) ), good theme match, just few ideas from me:

* You can keep placing tiles even if they're on 0 level, which prevents the level from starting (goes to -1) * Couldn't figure out how to remove a previously places tile * Tutorial on my mac got partially hidden by the tile bar * Would be great to be able to "play" even without placing all the tiles, to check what's going on

Tiny Pollen by rzfmzn 2017-05-10T19:04:12Z

A game that is a real joy to play, just had to finish it :)

The graphics are really, really nice, the mood is fantastic, a pit it got spoiled a little bit with out of this world UI elements like the timer or the progress bar.

5th level needs a bit balancing, but still it added a twist to the game.

Thank you!

B-M0X by sambrosia 2017-05-17T15:27:05Z

nice mood, lovely graphis, good music choice. if only there was a gameplay :D

Incidental Dimension by wildmusketeer 2017-05-13T20:12:30Z

good old sokoban with a nice twist! Brings good memories :) Thank you, great game.

Den by La mecanique du plastique 2017-05-16T08:41:47Z

Holy crap!!! Once again the French prove their game-making is top of the world! (i'm winking to you Daphne Software ;-) ).

My fav game so far!

Scary Terry's Tavern by gameDevSteve 2017-05-10T19:08:26Z

Tried the game, but sadly have no idea how to controll the monsters? Do you need game pads?

Don't Crush Me by Thirrash 2017-05-15T18:21:41Z

very cool graphics and idea! Steering is a bit confusing and cumbersome, but otherwise very nice execution!

Flutter by Kaystar 2017-05-15T18:30:45Z

Nice, relaxing game, leaving you satisfied with growing a butterfly ;-)
