LD45 — Start with nothing

tile.flip() by Move127 2019-10-28T10:33:13Z

My background is in tabletop games and I love me a solid game mechanic. It just works! I have to point out, however, that I ran into a couple of occasions that the symbols did not stay on the tile after re-flipping, ruining the flow of the game a little bit.

Mad Mans Vengeance by Tommislav 2019-10-16T22:21:32Z

Bold move to go for a text game. This was a pleasant change of pace.

Soundmarine by Dustyroom 2019-10-09T13:52:51Z

Yeah, okay. That's a winner.

Chorus Critters by Xarras 2019-10-11T20:35:48Z

I wish I knew what is it I am supposed to sing! It's very confusing! But very heartwarming as well. Well done.

Pixel Cook by Huitre 2019-10-14T12:45:03Z

Really great game. Ctrl is used for a lot of web browser hot keys, though, making that a major pain when playing it on webgl. But, hey, it's the game I played for the longest in this ludum. Good job.

Sabotage by deepnight 2019-10-09T11:07:27Z

How did you do this??? This is amazing!

Home Sweet Home by karreg 2019-10-27T10:03:49Z

Is it possible to buy the house?

Nothing to Say by celia14 2019-10-09T13:09:00Z

This was very cute ^^ glad to have played it

FUTHARK by dikkop 2019-10-11T20:45:23Z

Nicely done.

Terminal Reset by fusionnist 2019-10-16T22:23:50Z

Bullet hell games are not my cup of tea but I can't help but admit that this is a solid idea very well executed.

Notorious Bum by Barbiche 2019-10-10T18:15:08Z

Great idea,would love to see more

HEI$T by pataya 2019-10-11T09:50:18Z

I expected everyone to try an idle game this year and, for good reason, almost no one did. It's hard to surprise someone by giving them exactly what they expect and yet you pull it off perfectly. Solid execution, great feel.

FYB by herinque 2019-10-11T11:07:26Z

Very atmospheric. I can't help but feel as if I missed something though. I rolled off the selves from the start, headed into the vents and then dropped in the right one to get the body, but I never saw an establishing shot about where the body was or what it was. Don't know if there was one. Same goes for the rolling cylinder itself--no establishing shot--but I can imagine that being intentional. Great mood, I admire how professionally you set up the ambience. It's a 5 for mood, for sure.

TRIGGORE by Lumpy 2019-10-09T11:31:38Z

Your artist needs to talk to a therapist. Other than that, definitely among the most well put together games I've seen yet.

P L A G U E T I M E by bruins 2019-10-14T13:35:45Z

Great game but I feel as if clicking to attack/use tools would be a world of improvement over swinging the mouse. Perhaps that would make more sense if the tools/weapons had longer reach? (And therefore it was more intuitive to swing around windmill-style)

Still, just my opinion. Great looking game other than this.

WHILE (TRUE) { JAM(); } by cybersoftuk 2019-10-12T10:18:49Z

It's an entertainingly therapeutic way to deal with the trauma of staying awake for 60 hours straight and missing 5 meals.

less headless by Kultisti 2019-10-14T13:08:22Z

That was the strangest thing I've played yet xD

Space trial by PaulLyaudet 2019-10-11T20:54:40Z

The sound can get pretty old pretty quick and I would have really appreciated some kind of continue or save function. Oh, and it took me a while to realize how to equip cards (I first tried drag and dropping and double clicking). Other than that, solid game concept, nice execution.

The Carpenter by Valentin4311 2019-10-09T13:46:17Z

It feels great and it looks even better. Good job.

When Nothing Came by velvetlobster 2019-10-16T21:20:36Z

Bloody well done.

ground zero by whycardboard 2019-10-09T06:42:05Z

What you have achieved on a weekend is so inspiring. I hope more people get to see this.

HEARTSCAPE by ZakAmana 2019-10-09T06:58:15Z

Amazing work! Found it on itch.io but there was no link to your ludum dare page so I had to do some creative googling to find and vote for you!

Greta Thunberg's Planet Converter by celmer89 2019-10-25T07:31:32Z

I wish we could plant more trees in one click though

Dr & Dr by Daniel Jenikovský 2019-10-11T10:43:53Z

The game crashed, my computer shut down, and wouldn't turn back on until I shut down my power supply long enough for the motherboard to die out. I am not gonna rate badly because of this, but I am not trying it again either.

Please, put a disclaimer at the top of your page until you fix this. I wouldn't want anyone who relies on their machine for their work as I do to get that scare that I did.

Battleground Command by gamedevkng 2019-10-28T11:06:09Z

The counters didn't work: I was "being watched by 22" guards while there were 8 alive. I did not realize the functionality of the crouch and prone positions. I saw three bullet calibers on the screen but only ever found guns and ammo for one.

Solid game, keep on truckin'.

MU: The empty Fist by JesusAcHe 2019-10-16T21:44:23Z

Great game, lovely polish, the log was a nice touch. Pity more people haven't played this.

The items, that change everything by Dock Frankenstein 2019-10-24T15:36:04Z

So this game advocates consumerism? I'd buy it.

Crazy Run Game by room606 2019-10-16T21:34:27Z

The marketing of this game is great, though.

Boltzmann by Hermitao 2019-10-11T20:21:20Z

very pretty.

While you're here by Dinorex 2019-10-09T06:15:09Z

You get a five on theme, my friend. This works so well...

Nix by slagathor 2019-10-09T12:59:12Z

Real straightforward and fun. I would like it if the demolish range of the pink power was a bit larger... I find myself mostly using the other two.

HONK by Tricky_Fat_Cat 2019-10-16T21:21:47Z

HONK HONK. HONK.

Girl in a Dungeon by Phoenix Fireflower 2019-10-19T21:20:34Z

Very nice little game. It can actually get pretty challenging!

itemless by NachtWitch 2019-10-14T11:24:53Z

Fun! The game froze on me when I first died but other than that, works exactly as advertised. 10/10 best 2d minecraft clone

Good Pirate — Dead Pirate by vantos3001 2019-10-09T08:06:03Z

A fun concept. I would like it if the ship could swivel on the spot

Neon Sunset by tobb 2019-10-08T21:31:01Z

The fact that it's this much fun to play at an unfinished state says a lot! I love your shader and the 80s outfits. My two cents: if you enjoyed yourselves and feel like working more on this in the future, I would really love to see a cover mechanic.

War with Nothing by karrar home student 2019-10-24T15:40:21Z

You shouldn't play with guns. Or fire. Or guns that spit fire. Don't try this at home kids.

Memoirs Found in a by Dane Tesla 2019-10-20T15:15:40Z

I was genuinely scared. Unfortunately, I could not find the "meteorite" anywhere in the room, even after scanning all the pews twice. At that point I was genuinely dizzy and I quit. I withhold my judgement until I have the time to give it a second play-through, BUT... I can guarantee a 5 on mood.

P.O.S.E.V.Y - [CROPS] by Banana090 2019-10-12T17:34:31Z

A lot of fun. A few more mobs per wave would make it interesting.

The Reincarnation by TimoSch 2019-10-16T21:48:46Z

I don't know what this is. But I appreciated that I died from a dog with laser sight.

MetaSpace by Jahwffrey 2019-10-11T09:32:22Z

I love how the director is in almost every cut. 5 on Innovation for sure

because we have nothing, so we need to choose what to get. by iAmberF 2019-10-11T20:26:53Z

A pretty little game! The English is a bit shabby and the final screen doesn't stay on long enough to read through thoroughly before the credits roll! But other than that, very heartwarming.
