LD46 — Keep it alive

Adrenaline Rush by Elmeri 2020-04-25T16:29:35Z

This is really well made, very original, and I love the art style ! The controls are a bit finicky (especially when shaking the mouse, it is hard to keep it in the screen since the cursor is not visible). Otherwise it was fun, congrats !

I had a lot of fun playing this game, you did a great job on the atmosphere. It would be nice to be able to start a new game from the game over scene, but that's a minor detail.

Congratulations !

Cool game ! The concept is pretty original, the atmosphere is well done. The pit that moves around is a great game mechanic, and it made the last level really fun. I think it could have been nice to use it more in the first levels (I barely noticed it at first). Well done :)

Good job ! As others have said, I think the game might be missing something, maybe a goal, or another mechanic to keep the player invested.

But I'm impressed that you were able to make your own engine from scratch in only 3 days, well done !

The speed of the robot made it quite challenging not to break the plant (this is not a bad thing), and I had to really reduce the sensitivity as much as I could to get trough the game. Otherwise it was great, I had fun playing it, and every level felt different.

Well done !

I agree that the ending is a bit abrupt, and I'm not very happy with the sound overall. This is my first finished game, so I'm really glad you liked it. Thanks for the feedback !

Hi everyone ! I know the AI is a bit random. I thought the ramdomness made the game challenging, and also added quite a lot of tension, since you can't learn the grue's pattern. I also didn't have time to make a smarter AI, to be completely honest ;) .

I really tried to make a game that is short and fun. I did think about adding a winning condition (survive X minutes) and more levels (maybe with 2 grues, the fire in a dead-end, ...), but I don't think it would have made the game better, and I wouldn't have had the time to work on other things.

Thank you all for trying the game out and leaving comments, I'm glad you all liked it !

The graphics are nice, the concept is original and fits the theme. I did have some troubles getting used to the controls, but that was fun anyway. Well done !

Square Loves Circle! by meelo 2020-04-30T11:37:58Z

I think that the controls feel a little "floaty" (I'd say the squares reaction to the controls feel a bit slow).

Otherwise this is a really fun game ! The puzzles, the simple graphics, and the narration reminded me of Thomas Was Alone.

Well done !

Great job ! I had fun looking for the best and worst endings, I really liked that my first attempt at being stupidly heroic was not rewarded :)
