LD23 — Tiny World

Disregard All Humans by Fireblend 2012-04-23T20:34:00

Neat graphics and simple yet fun gameplay. Music is impressive. Short and sweet, good job! :)

Just My Immagination by Proch 2012-04-25T22:05:00

Nice concept. Pretty solid water physics.

Bill in BSODia by vigrid 2012-04-23T14:26:00

Hey tumblr/twitter buddy :) Played your game a bit, the idea is very original (it made me lol) and controls are smooth and responsive. Graphics are simple and sweet. Good job!

Free Donutia by the8donut 2012-04-23T11:30:00

@jeroenimoo - Take a look at the source code both of the game and the applet's web page. Make sure you include the signed jars for the natives. Hope it helps :) I'm glad you like the idea, unfortunately collision system is the least polished aspect of the game.

@stromchin - haha yes, had to look it up on youtube, looks like a cool game :D

@aaronsnoswell - I've put a runnable jar for each OS, hope that solves the problem!

Free Donutia by the8donut 2012-04-23T12:09:00

@Lidfrid: yes, unfortunately it may not work on some systems. LWJGL applet loader is quite easy to use but has VERY WEIRD behaviors sometimes. I've put a downloadable jar for each OS though, that should do the trick :)

Tiny World by Andrew 2012-04-24T10:04:00

There's a lot of trial end error sort of gameplay... Not definitely my cup of tea, but the game is polished and graphics are interesting!

Save the tiny world! by davidllanos22 2012-04-23T11:37:00

I really appreciate the effort you've put into making a polished and complete game. Neat graphics and smooth controls.

A Perfect Purpose by Siewart 2012-04-24T10:00:00

The game itself is very simple, but graphics are really cool and different! Good job.

Le Petit by Pixelulsar 2012-04-24T20:24:00

Aw god this game is flipping hard! But other than that, it's a really nice platformer. good job!

Asylum by Orni 2012-04-25T15:44:00

The intro was a bit too long, and it's really too bad that there's no sound. Other than that, this game is great. Loved the art style, the sort of particle-effects when you hit the monster, and the back-story. Great job!

Flea Circus by robbiehunt 2012-04-24T11:24:00

Little funny game, nice concept. Good job :)

Electron Cloud by Evilion 2012-04-23T10:37:00

Loved the graphics. Very promising, would love to see how it turns out

Flight of the Ladybug by robcozzens 2012-04-25T22:02:00

Simple and sweet, fun to play. And very nice graphics!

Microbial by LukeRissacher 2012-04-24T08:11:00

Nothing shows up, that's too bad because screen captures look promising! Win 7 64bit, XNA installed

Microbial by LukeRissacher 2012-04-25T08:53:00

Ah, the fix worked! finally I was able to play it :) Great job! I find puzzle games usually slow paced and pretty boring, but yours is very fun to play and forces you to think fast. Level design is clever and the way you managed to create a generally smooth learning curve in 48 hours is really impressive. Loved it!

Pixel Wars by Kalabasa 2012-04-23T15:38:00

Smooth gameplay, nice concept!

TINY COMPUTER PEOPLE by Tuba 2012-04-23T16:15:00

Good job on the randomly generated mazes, and the back-story is pretty hilarious :D

Conqueror by Hume 2012-04-25T09:15:00

Very nice! Turns out I'm not that bad at geography either :D Graphics run very smooth, simple and effective. Good job!

Tinysasters by Volute 2012-04-23T19:19:00

Beautiful art, engaging gameplay. Although it's based too much on random events, this is one of my favorites so far! Great job!

Pocket Strife by josefnpat 2012-04-24T07:56:00

Cool graphics, controls are a bit weird but good job!

Attack on the Planet XXS-01 by TenTonToon 2012-04-23T13:03:00

The game's a bit frustrating, controls are a bit weird (a bit buggy, I suspect). The graphics however are well done. Especially the background.

Minor Deities by maranas 2012-04-23T11:24:00

Nice little text game. It's kinda fun to experiment all the game-over's :)

Soul Searchin' by MaximSchoemaker 2012-04-24T20:53:00

Yo dawg, I heard you like platformers, so I put a platformer into a platformer, so you can shrink while you shrink. Shrink-ception!

No but seriously, very clever and original concept, definitely one of my favorite entries so far! :)

Quantum Entanglement by icefallgames 2012-04-23T20:08:00

Clever puzzles, I like it!

Box by eShredder 2012-04-23T16:06:00

It took me a while as well to understand the mechanics, but the game's really well done and the concept is pretty clever. Good job!

Tiny Basket World by stromchin 2012-04-23T09:58:00

It may lack of polish, but I have to say it's really fun! :)

To What a Mountain? by cageinabird 2012-04-23T13:42:00

This made me laugh pretty hard :D DAT MOUTH!

To What a Mountain? by cageinabird 2012-04-23T13:42:00

LOL

I Painted a Tiny World by jellyislovely 2012-04-24T09:24:00

The game's waaaaay too hard! Other than that, the game's art style is great, and the mechanics are interesting. Good job!

Matrix Creatrix by piman 2012-04-25T21:45:00

Very weird game, but interesting concept.

Tiny World! by unicornpooping 2012-04-23T18:08:00

DAT MUSIC. lol. Great game as well, cool mechanics!

spectrumTrap by sugarlollipop 2012-04-26T00:14:00

Loved the soundtrack. The game itself is quite weird but interesting in its own way, and enjoyable. On a side note, aren't we supposed to submit the source code?

Ok...Now this is akward! by Pierrec 2012-04-23T17:15:00

Lol i really liked it. Enjoyed the story a lot, and the art style is really good! Great job

Ok...Now this is akward! by Pierrec 2012-04-23T17:17:00

Really really liked it. Dialogues are great, the game's really fun (and funny) and the way you interpreted the theme was very original.

Pixel Story by Flyboy 2012-04-23T13:14:00

Very good job! You managed to make a fun out of only a bunch of pixels, this ain't simple at all. Kudos!

Pixel Story by Flyboy 2012-04-23T13:15:00

I loved it. Creating an interesting game with so few degrees of freedom (about a hundred pixels, 5 buttons to press) requires a lot of skill. Good job!

Interplanetary Sumo by Milo 2012-04-25T22:21:00

Very interesting concept, nice music.

Memento XII by deepnight 2012-04-24T11:40:00

Removed by SBareS 2012-04-24T09:12:00

Yay, I won! Graphics are a bit rough around the edges, but the game is enjoyable.

A Load of Bulls... by Frib 2012-04-23T14:22:00

Those bulls remind me of good old Serious Sam :D Nice game, love the curved world!

Dude Rescue by agnulf 2012-04-24T14:15:00

Lol, loved it. Really fun to play, simple and neat gameplay

Angle Isle by Rusty Moyher 2012-04-23T19:06:00

Very distinctive look. Overall it's a cute platform, but it doesn't fit with the theme that much. Good job though, the game itself is neat and polished!

3 Arrows by wupto 2012-04-23T16:48:00

Yup it's really hard, but good job on the graphics :)

Really fun and polished game! Simple yet smart core mechanics.

Short Life in a Box by tequibo 2012-04-23T10:24:00

The idea of exploring a box and finding secrets is nice, unfortunately the game is quite hard to control.

River Runner by omaha 2012-04-24T11:09:00

Good job on this one, very hard but definitely fun. Water effect is very interesting.

TinyInspiration by Shigor 2012-04-25T21:21:00

48 hour MMO by mikolalysenko 2012-04-23T23:06:00

I have to give you five stars somewhere, because making an mmo in 48 hours must have been a hell of a lot of work!

Predominantly Tiny World by Graham Weldon 2012-04-23T17:36:00

Really nice, especially the gameplay! Sound is a bit annoying but that's probably the hardest part of making a game in such a small timeframe, so it's fine. Good job!

Mayor vs Aliens by Sheepolution 2012-04-25T23:20:00

Haha that's funny man, everytime they managed to get away with a block i was like "NAAAAAW!!! Stop it!!". Really enjoyed playing it!

GRIDiots by Taugeshtu 2012-04-24T09:37:00

Charming graphics, gameplay and controls could have used some more polish, but overall very good job!

Professor McSteen, and his shrinking machine by PerilousPete 2012-04-23T20:59:00

Great art, creepy atmosphere. Very well done!

Junior's Car by Khayet 2012-04-25T16:36:00

Driving the car really feels like controlling a real RC one. Collisions are pretty unforgiving, but still nice game!
