LD29 — Beneath the Surface

Delve by conormn 2014-04-29T00:01:00

It's very pretty, but that's about it. Barely a game. More like a picture book, except you click on it.

Hot Diggity by DragonXVI 2014-04-28T23:02:00

I can see myself losing hours to a polished version of this!

Bornard by TomBoogaart 2014-04-28T23:11:00

I really dig the style of this

Kinetectonic by headchant 2014-04-29T08:17:00

I don't think I did it right. Cat's are bad now?

Dig Hard by petey123567 2014-04-29T08:00:00

Oh that was good. I enjoyed playing that more than my own game

Please Come Back by PapyPilgrim 2014-04-28T22:08:00

I saw this just before the jam. It's this game EXACTLY

http://sortieenmer.com/

Surface Battle by Zerod 2014-04-28T23:05:00

Very nice. A man loves pixels!

ants by justinmchase 2014-04-28T02:23:00

Can't run the Windows .exe

It's looking for a data folder in the zip that's missing.

Refuge by MunkeeBacon 2014-05-01T08:42:00

Looks nice!

Super Drill Defense+TM by PIXEL^3 2014-04-29T02:25:00

REALLY unintuitive to control.

Oh My Oilrig! by manabreak 2014-04-28T07:44:00

Really great start at a turret defence!

Switcher by ehtd 2014-04-28T03:28:00

Controls feel a bit slow, and the amount of rocks thrown at you incapacitates the monster almost instantly.

Other than that, it's fun!

Carnival Warfare by pinkmonkeyhead 2014-04-29T07:45:00

Not bad. Thin vile of the theme. That's ok, my game is the same (vague reference to the theme)

I am a Mole by graebor 2014-04-29T09:06:00

Short, sweet, and I'll have nightmares now. Thanks

Ben Eath The Surf Ace by mess110 2014-04-28T23:42:00

That was certainly... different!

A boy and his Hellworm by orangepascal 2014-04-29T08:44:00

so fun

ReD by Sakuyan 2014-04-28T05:00:00

Very pretty. That boss was too hard for a character with limited movement and 1 hit death. (unless I missed something)?

LightRunner by ryebread761 2014-04-28T02:55:00

Idea was a nice reversal from the norm. Stay away from what you'd normally seek in a cave.

Should the character have been something that would avoid light, like a bat or monster?

[ Particle Effects. ] by Graf_Grun 2014-04-28T07:22:00

Love the box related gameplay!

Wormhunter by Thorig 2014-04-30T23:06:00

So simple. So pretty.

Temple of Ra by Split82 2014-04-28T23:37:00

This is nice. Very pretty.

Inside Look Activity Book by rylgh 2014-04-28T08:43:00

As an aspiring psychopath I can see I still have a long way to go. Thanks for opening my eyes

Sea Fighters by Julgodis 2014-04-28T23:03:00

Very fun. Great work.

Eat'em all by coquinounet 2014-04-30T06:49:00

Haha entertaining. Sharks. Who would have guessed?

Substep by Ysty 2014-04-29T08:20:00

really hard to control.

FedIt! by zedutchgandalf 2014-04-28T22:19:00

Pretty cool.

Drillo - The Happy Driller by SkyWolf 2014-04-29T00:04:00

Consistent art. That's hard to come by in a jam. Needs some rebalancing for the oxygen IMO

Klein Bottle Asteroids by bucketh3ad 2014-04-29T02:28:00

So, you made Asteroids?

Dany's Room by Alexandre Szybiak 2014-05-03T00:16:00

When bugs are a GOOD thing in a game

Kalahari Babysitter by TijmenTio 2014-05-01T08:47:00

Wow. Juice as!

Wriggle Worm by gikdew 2014-04-28T07:10:00

Very neat and tidy,

Gubble Quest by Somfunambulist 2014-04-29T00:20:00

Couldn't figure out what to do

Space Driller by Mr. Jif 2014-05-06T08:19:00

Metroid. So much Metroid! I'm now going to play through all previous Metroid games and get a divorce thanks to this :p

Life story by gmaker 2014-05-03T01:42:00

Really like the graphics in this

Wunderheilung by kbm 2014-04-28T23:45:00

Very eerie presentation

Above and Beyond by Yozz 2014-04-28T08:55:00

I don't remember depression being like this at all!

Being told to be happy after I lost when I felt like there was nothing I could do to change it. That's depression.

Captain John's Buried Treasures by martijn 2014-04-28T10:02:00

Flooded with bombs. Crashed it. Had a blast ;)

Ray Hey Hey by shotiris 2014-04-28T05:44:00

Pretty cool

City Beneath the Surface by SmilingCat 2014-04-29T00:23:00

As others have said, awkward controls turned me off.

Bellhook by Colorvade 2014-04-28T09:32:00

Really hard to control. Had no idea where the house was or how to fish the things out. Figured it out after a while.

Series Of Choices by joe40001 2014-05-07T01:59:00

Tip, I hated that I was running on the leading edge of the screen with all the wasted space behind me. Would be great if I could see what was up ahead instead of only 1 metre in front.

Mine Story by donan 2014-04-28T09:26:00

Not bad

Close Your Eyes by AestheticGamer 2014-04-28T04:45:00

Can't even. 258MB?

Wireside by Solifuge 2014-05-01T08:44:00

Great concept!

My Little Secret by Thein 2014-04-28T05:39:00

Pretty cool!

Soul Dive by John Drury 2014-04-28T09:20:00

Couldn't hear any music - Windows

In Too Deep by Toestee 2014-04-29T02:21:00

Short and sweet.

Beneath The Surface Integral by SlamBlasta 2014-04-28T06:44:00

That was a lot of fun.

Ocean WildLife by belva1234 2014-04-30T22:53:00

Very cool. Nice mood

Cry Baby by Elforama 2014-04-28T03:18:00

HA! We were discussing making a game similar to this at the start of the dare!

AHH LAVA! by Dreii 2014-04-28T09:13:00

Did not realise i could click for bombs

Totems by Brian Stegmann 2014-04-28T03:47:00

Couldn't hear anything - Windows 8.1

Totems by Brian Stegmann 2014-04-28T05:45:00

Nice.

Beneath The Memories by StuffBySpencer 2014-04-28T09:06:00

Stanley Parable

DIVE by Lars Faust 2014-04-29T00:09:00

Gameplay leaves something to be desired but it is presented really well. It's sharp, neat and I want more.

Balancitos by NickZangus 2014-05-12T02:01:00

I found this difficult after so much coffee. Pretty nice though!

Beneath The Lab by Techblogogy 2014-04-28T22:13:00

nice idea. could do a bit with that!

They Lurk Beneath by Nega Drive 2014-05-04T05:28:00

Different take on a defence game. Well done.

Gold Submarine by Slader16 2014-04-28T07:06:00

Very nice feel to the game!

Space Driller by floz 2014-04-28T03:43:00

OOh this is nice. Simple, and no way of losing meant I could happily take over anything and everything at my own pace.

Ghost of the trapped Miners by thx4nothing 2014-04-29T00:46:00

Not bad for a first LD game.

pod by TomCooper3D 2014-04-29T07:52:00

Um did I win?

Troubles beneath the surface by archaeometrician 2014-04-30T03:59:00

Very entertaining.

Beneath the Game Developer by shs 2014-04-28T04:42:00

It is a nice commentary of people trying to make games at home. Couldn't find the button that told the character to go to Amazon and buy some books to read though.

Moai by Satyre 2014-04-30T23:01:00

Cool game, nice work!

Sundiver by kmakai 2014-05-01T00:26:00

Pretty cool. Good work.

GameJammed by ShivanHunter 2014-04-28T05:14:00

Do I detect use of Spritelamp in this?

GameJammed by ShivanHunter 2014-04-28T07:23:00

great work with the normal maps!

GameJammed by ShivanHunter 2014-04-28T07:24:00

Yep. That's one perrrrdy game

From the Under by damrem 2014-05-04T05:39:00

Not bad. Keep it up.

Mermaid Scientist Massacre by pancakecity 2014-04-29T02:26:00

Pretty good.

Herbert Crawler by Ronin748 2014-04-30T06:47:00

Looks really cool.

Franz Kafka's A Hunger Artist by monika 2014-04-28T23:56:00

Not really sure what it's about

Breaking The Waves by BlazingFanfish 2014-05-04T22:02:00

I can't say anything that hasn't been said. Balancing needs to be done, nice work on the graphics

Total Tipanic by tiffi_gaming 2014-04-29T00:17:00

It's impossibru!

Fish Photographer Simulator by Jacksendary 2014-04-30T06:44:00

Ah, the serenity. This is relaxing.

Virophage by eerongal 2014-05-01T09:15:00

Wow unique

Mission "Tank" by Doubstract 2014-04-28T22:39:00

Great effort

Beneath the Surface by FistBumpGames 2014-05-04T05:22:00

Very nice feel to the game. Shame the controls are too hard. Unintuitive, and hitting the skeletons is awkward

Beneath The Ice by Danman9914 2014-04-29T08:29:00

That's one patient Inuit!

Unknown by Pietro Ferrantelli 2014-04-28T22:17:00

Very entertaining

Sopora by Crabman 2014-04-29T02:30:00

Yes! Box related gameplay!

http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-29/?action=preview&uid=36973

Bitmite Blitz by Coin Flip Games 2014-05-01T09:17:00

nice, unique!

Lithospheric Hyperexploitation by Infraviolet 2014-04-28T02:52:00

Bug when trying to play. Getting a black screen and cmd log full of these -
Failed to play audio stream: sound parameters have not been initialized (call Initialize first)

Baum by Waterman7 2014-05-01T08:57:00

Those damn spiders!

Under Our Feet by NicoM 2014-04-28T03:12:00

Very nice platformer.

Broken Heart by TsFreddie 2014-04-28T06:17:00

Very serene. Nice work.

BTS-1337 by icereci 2014-04-28T22:09:00

A bit... dark :p

Mole Position by Glint Games 2014-04-28T04:14:00

Was really clunky and I got stuck in the wall a lot. couldn't figure out what to do

The Creature Beneath by Otrora Games 2014-04-29T22:05:00

Very slow and unforgiving. I seemed to die to nothing at the second screen (the wheels to make the face)

Moles Warriors by kukilin 2014-04-28T22:40:00

That's great

Escave! by Simon@LD 2014-04-30T23:09:00

Nice cave game.

Small Town by louiscarl 2014-04-28T04:11:00

It felt like it was going somewhere.

Digable Planet by Oddly Shaped Pixels 2014-05-01T08:58:00

Pretty interesting concept

Beneath the Surface by Snoother 2014-04-29T08:35:00

Well that's fucking dark and depressing!

Nesty Fall by cleitoneldorn 2014-04-28T23:14:00

Love a game where I can evolve the character!

HYPERHYDROSIS by Craig Smye 2014-04-29T02:32:00

It's definitely a game!

Under My Bed by akymos 2014-04-30T06:49:00

Really great visuals!

Hair Spirit Adventure by messthem team 2014-04-30T03:57:00

Looked nice, hard to control though

Beneath Colossal by Liens 2014-04-28T22:48:00

I love a good normal map.

Atomicle - LostAutumn.net by AutumnGuy 2014-04-28T05:27:00

Hail Hydra!
Good work. My brain was getting so confused trying to get around the rings :D

In The Blood by hexagore 2014-04-29T02:35:00

Can't tell if stuff is good or bad

Bloodbath by Lacaranian 2014-04-28T06:11:00

Interesting concept but not too challenging or rewarding.

And the Moment Is Gone by Mike Mezhenin 2014-05-01T00:35:00

That's deep. Great work.

The Sandbox by quade81 2014-04-28T23:16:00

Very hard. Good job!

Understanding LD by DarkMeatGames 2014-04-28T23:34:00

Boxes!

Ten body disco party by Reinkout 2014-04-29T00:52:00

Pretty fun. Dropping those bodies was satisfying

Greys by ccglp 2014-04-28T23:04:00

Pretty cool. Good stuff

Under by zanenga 2014-04-29T08:42:00

Loved how the ball moves. Reminded me of Megaman X4. Hated the music though.

No Eyes Willy by blockbot 2014-04-28T23:08:00

Really good job on the colours in this! Super simple gameplay to enthral for hours

The Mole Hole by Sylvain Dubrofsky 2014-04-28T05:04:00

Why don't you take a picture with YOUR phone?

Speak Softly and Carry a Big Stick by shyupuff 2014-04-28T07:04:00

Not horrible

Everybody Hates Water Levels by Paladin 2014-04-29T09:10:00

You're right. EVERYBODY hates water levels.

Free Fall by Warzone Gaming 2014-04-28T22:43:00

Very cool.

C=AVERUNNER by MrShortee 2014-04-29T02:39:00

the double jump led to a weird glide mechanic i think.

Deep Love Compo by Halbernacht 2014-04-29T09:01:00

Aww how nice. Anvil-chan

Diamond quest by PnDAA 2014-05-01T08:53:00

Hey very cool

Beneath The Surface by adamwoolridge 2014-04-28T10:24:00

Well done!

Underneath Our Faces by undefinist 2014-04-28T23:06:00

Great stuff. Love the challenge!

Beneath the surface by Norman12 2014-05-01T09:20:00

Super meat boy.

Falling by StrykerKKD 2014-04-28T23:08:00

Nice.

Whack-a-Meme by Mallot1 2014-04-29T02:15:00

I feel like I have jus been trolled

Ice Hop by waveformmodulations 2014-05-06T10:45:00

wow that file size!

To Surface by NeithR 2014-05-03T01:45:00

Choose your own adventure PDF... wow

Graveyard by vanmount 2014-04-29T07:55:00

So it seems you CAN dig your way out of a hole. I reached bedrock.

Miner Rivlary by Zenton 2014-04-28T02:18:00

Nice. Fun Simple. Grab a friend and play!

SEA MONSTER: ATTACKS HUNTER by Frump 2014-05-06T08:04:00

That was really entertaining. I don't think I have played something like this before.

Word Digger by MattV 2014-04-28T04:33:00

Don't know what language the dictionary is in. Maybe the letters need to be tweaked to allow more words to be made

WHAT IS IN THE SWAMP? (IT'S MONSTERS) by tacs 2014-04-28T09:37:00

Those controls... Old Resident Evil.

Beneath my skin by RaycoSantana 2014-04-28T10:00:00

haha nice

You Must SMASH! by microapple 2014-04-28T04:49:00

Really hard to control. The buttons were all over the place and I would zoom all over the place

The Westport Independent by Double Zero One Zero 2014-04-30T22:58:00

Great work. Love the look you have in this!

Gems of the Deep by FyberOptic 2014-04-28T05:34:00

Great work. That jet pack was a god send!

Subocula by DrMelon 2014-04-28T04:00:00

Wow that's some creepy Stanley Kubrick stuff right there!

Amazing! Beneath The Surface by nonetheless 2014-04-30T22:52:00

Like those games where you move the hoop along the wire and try to not get zapped. Except the hoop is a ball and the wire is a light grey cave on a white background and there's no electrocution. Needs more electrocution

Kill or Kill by GreatBigJerk 2014-04-28T23:01:00

That's great!

The Loudest Ballerina by whalebot 2014-04-28T07:02:00

Really good. The controls were not clear at the start. Ended up mashing the keys to get the right combo.

Blunderer by Jacob Peltola 2014-04-28T05:48:00

All the spinning! And boxes!

Xen'Juru Adventure by micdoodle8 2014-04-29T08:52:00

I am well entertained now. Good work,

Deep Maze by hexabeast 2014-04-28T23:18:00

You're right, doesn't work on many browsers :(

Trufflehunt by ruerob 2014-05-01T00:32:00

haha nuf nuf nuf. reminds me of box box box simulator

Scary Ugly Face by Jonochrome 2014-04-29T08:59:00

I didn't plan on sleeping tonight

Stroppy Swan by bazld 2014-04-28T23:39:00

Sawns are dicks! Good game. Perfectly modelled swan behaviour.

Upstream by Viza 2014-04-28T22:15:00

Not bad

Box Simulator by terraco 2014-04-28T03:56:00

@DrMelon The theme - the boxes contain shovels and the screaming when you hit the boxes is just the shovels hurting the boxes, from beneath their surface. BOX!

Box Simulator by terraco 2014-04-28T05:41:00

Ah, Brian. You were clearly not thinking outside the box. To be box, one must not be box.

Host your own server and you can box.

Box Simulator by terraco 2014-04-28T05:50:00

Box be to you, young box.

Box Simulator by terraco 2014-04-28T06:46:00

@seuss - you're right, it is really good in multiplayer. You can't experience smashing into your friends if you have none available. Also it doesn't seem to connect over the internet, only locally. My bad!

Box Simulator by terraco 2014-04-28T06:52:00

Also, Suess... I updated the description to address your concerns.

Box Simulator by terraco 2014-04-28T08:58:00

@r0x0r - is that in the web player or downloaded from GameJolt?

Box Simulator by terraco 2014-04-29T02:00:00

@drnick - It's ok, some people didn't understand the theme of Inception either. If you don't get it, just enjoy it.

Box Simulator by terraco 2014-04-29T06:20:00

Sir box boxington the box.

Box Simulator by terraco 2014-04-29T07:41:00

The theme is there, you just need to look beneath the surface.

Box Simulator by terraco 2014-04-30T13:18:00

Driving was done myself :) had trouble with the suspension in a short time so i decided to cut the springs and make it rigid as.

Box Simulator by terraco 2014-05-01T04:21:00

Yes. Yes it is.

Box Simulator by terraco 2014-05-01T22:06:00

Hey Caranha, there are downloads with .zip's, .exe's and all the other goodness available as well!

Box Simulator by terraco 2014-05-03T06:58:00

Sorry to hear that Tomvert. You can play by clicking start server

Box Simulator by terraco 2014-05-04T05:23:00

Hey Cirolve, unfortunately I haven't played either of those games :(

Box Simulator by terraco 2014-05-12T01:54:00

Hey pinkmonkeyhead, source link added. Post comp link updated for those interested

Abstraction by cr2crstudios 2014-04-28T06:00:00

This is cool, for a programmer. Nice to see some of the underlying thought that goes into a game.

Elite Submarine by wilpel1234 2014-05-01T00:25:00

Nice work

Save Us by philip_sinclair 2014-04-29T09:14:00

Really cool. That timer seems useless though. Could do without it

Gold Miner by Young IT 2014-05-04T05:36:00

Hard to read those text boxes with all the shadows.

Geology Rocks by theengineers 2014-04-29T22:07:00

It would restart the game every time i jumped on a movable block.

Alien Lobotomy by Soup With Bits 2014-05-06T10:43:00

Very interesting concept!

Hell Manager by ATTA Games 2014-04-30T23:03:00

Well there you go

FoxyTank by matthias_zarzecki 2014-04-28T08:57:00

Cool

DRAANG by Magdev 2014-04-29T07:49:00

Uh, what in the name of Zeus was that?

Deep by ahmeni 2014-04-28T09:22:00

Not bad.

Run, Run, Robot by kirbytails7 2014-04-28T06:56:00

Neat idea. A bit of elbow grease and polish could make this into a nice mobile game.

Deepweb by alect 2014-04-28T06:08:00

That's cool. A bit of work on the mechanics and this could be a great mobile game

Revenge of the Kraken by malmazuke 2014-04-28T05:30:00

Loved flying out of the water

COVERUP by SFBTom 2014-04-28T03:22:00

That's nice.

Something Fishy by StabAlarash 2014-04-28T23:27:00

I can only think of Donkey Kong Country while playing this. DK has ruined swordfish for me forever!

The Gathering by oatsbarley 2014-05-01T09:13:00

Ooh nice look!

Cave Harrier by madjackmcmad 2014-04-28T02:21:00

Love the retro feel. Haven't played the game it is based off but I get the idea.

Basement by Halfbus 2014-05-03T01:36:00

Gawwwsshh that's an addictive game! Balancing, destroying rooms, skipping customers - these are some desired features

Surface Of The Skin by Suese 2014-04-28T06:25:00

Great work.

Surface Flip by SuperPokeunicorn 2014-04-28T02:27:00

Keep getting stuck at the menu so it's hard to retry. Quite a large file considering the lack of assets in the game
