LD54 — Limited Space (10)

Rocket of Sand by Paul-Maxime 2023-10-15T22:15:14Z ♥ 1

This was so cool and really impressive for a jam game. My only comment would be that an ingame description of what the different things do would be good and a more data on exactly how what each new drill and factory will add. But these are small things and its a game jam. Really good job overall.

how you use it by ThaProfesional 2023-10-15T22:00:18Z ♥ 0

That was a really neat physics based fighting game, I love the idea of having a giant sword and it worked really well. I wasn't a huge fan of the level where you are surrounded as I felt getting out of the initial danger felt a bit too much luck based, but there was a nice ramp in difficulty and the different levels were each interesting in their own way. My only other complaint would be the victory noise replaying constantly (I had this on the last level), but obviously its a game jam and there will be things overlooked. Overall, good job!

Puss In Box by iron_head 2023-10-10T21:41:32Z ♥ 0

This was a fun game. Great game I'm a terrible player. Love the boxing cat. 10/10

Oort's Orbital Postal Service by QGDev 2023-10-10T21:36:54Z ♥ 2

Neat graphics and workable controls for a space game. There was a slight problem where if I left the spacecraft the camera would jump back to the origin. Good job overall!

I Do by Togis 2023-10-10T21:11:27Z ♥ 3

This was fun. Graphics reminded me of prison architect. The situations were funny, and we enjoyed the chats down the side. Good job!

Project Minima by BlueDandelion 2023-10-10T20:34:44Z ♥ 1

Solid entry. Reminded me of VVVVVV. Good job!

Unlimited Space Shawarma by SID37 2023-10-10T20:26:45Z ♥ 2

This game was incredibly impressive, particularly for a jam. I had a slight issue where the view would slowly spin. But very well done over all!

Laboratory of Doom by Constance 2023-10-10T20:08:54Z ♥ 1

This was a neat little game for a game jam, it had really nice atmosphere. The pathing on the enemies was a little broken as they couldn't go through doors if you stood at the right level and you could still shoot. But these things are understandable with game jams. Good job!

Limited Space Under Press by AleksandarDev 2023-10-10T19:56:43Z ♥ 1

Congrats, getting a rhythm game is difficult especially in a short time frame but this was fun and looked really neat. Well done!

SpaceRaft by Bytomancer 2023-10-10T19:50:18Z ♥ 2

This is a really impressive entry. The only comment I can think of is it could do with more description of how each time interacts, but of course this is a game jam and you don't always get time for these things. Good job!

LD53 — Delivery (5)

Toad Pizza Express by Nazorus 2023-05-15T00:02:51Z ♥ 1

Interesting art style and very neat gameplay although the keyboard controls are a little awkward. Congrats on the entry

Astra Delivery by LTyrosine 2023-05-14T23:53:21Z ♥ 2

This is a super impressive entry, its gorgeous and does so much for a jam game. Congrats.

B.H.M.D.S. by Christian Zommerfelds 2023-05-14T23:45:18Z ♥ 2

Really like the gravity simulation and the theming, super cool. Congrats

Express Stork Delivery by AlexClay 2023-05-14T23:26:29Z ♥ 2

I love the 2d/3d pixel art style, its very neat. Congrats

The living deadlivery by Stingby12 2023-05-14T23:13:39Z ♥ 2

Love the scanline art style, works very well here because the simple graphics are still very readable, the idea is really cool as well, interesting twist on the sokoban formula, congrats!

LD52 — Harvest (1)

MONDO LABS by cannibalgirl 2023-01-22T23:10:27Z ♥ 1

Fun game! I wish I had more time on the levels and more information to better optimise the factories. I did notice a few times when trying to place or delete an object it selected the wrong tile, and once or twice the level intro text did not load (so I couldn't see what was after the final showdown). But it was a really neat concept very well executed. Good job!

LD51 — Every 10 seconds (2)

Tower of the Dice God by Skyward4d 2022-10-16T16:14:12Z ♥ 1

Fun game! I had to keep playing to see the different upgrades and only stopped when I fell off the map. Dice2.png

I feel like it would've been improved if it was top down, especially since the jump was little buggy. Still a fun game. Good job!

> deploy helper bot by Chartle 2022-10-10T21:34:30Z ♥ 3

I really like the art and sound, really helps make a great atmosphere. Controlling on keyboard was a little difficult at times, but its fun anyway. Good job!

LD50 — Delay the inevitable (4)

Color Entropy by knexator 2022-04-17T18:15:33Z ♥ 1

Getting energy from increasing energy?

A Ship Out of Time by deighta 2022-04-17T17:51:36Z ♥ 0

This was a really neat jam game with perfect scope. I feel like the early game was let down by the ships initial speed, there was a few times when I couldn't move the ship out of the way of the initial enemy wave and died straight away before I could warp or move out the way. Otherwise this was fun, good job.

Shades of Deception by AMastryukov 2022-04-13T22:57:45Z ♥ 4

Super impressive work (particularly the puns). I think the cursor doesn't always lock in properly after you exit the journal leading to the camera being fixed in a particular version in the web version. The writing, audio, mood and graphics are all amazing. Since the game is good enough to warrant a more critical eye I would say that it never felt obvious which items in the interrogation were relevant and questioning a person about the wrong items several times in a row broke my immersion a little. Not being able to make mistakes also removes any tension the game had, but the atmosphere built was more than enough to keep me interested. Really good job

ESCAPE VELOCITY by Quackqack 2022-04-08T20:55:39Z ♥ 2

This is really well done. The mood was especially good, the graphics and audio made a really tense atmosphere. Gameplay wise I never really felt the larger missiles were worthwhile but the gameplay loop was fun. Congrats

LD49 — Unstable (5)

Human Resources by lauchsuppe 2021-10-09T11:14:40Z ♥ 1

Interesting take on the theme and well implemented. Good job. I did find that the towers rarely had to be stable which favoured building in an unsustainable way, particularly on the last level where you didn't need to have anything underneath the owl things. Overall fun game with really cool art and a good sense of humour.

Proton Pilferer vs. The Particle Police by Skyward4d 2021-10-06T20:32:39Z ♥ 1

But where does the mass of the proton come from?

Crazy Potion by zapdos2 2021-10-06T20:14:10Z ♥ 1

Congrats on completing your game. It is a neat idea, if you were to continue this I think it would benefit from reducing the timer and adding some additional element of strategy and adding more interesting AI for the melee guy. Its fun

The Penguins Below by michaelaranda 2021-10-06T20:01:22Z ♥ 4

Super neat game. Love the cartoony graphics and it fits the theme really well. Good job!

The addition of the box adds so much to it as well, that is a galaxy brain move.

Toy Tactics by JoeShanahan 2021-10-06T19:30:51Z ♥ 1

Good job. Really nice job on the models. Messing around with the physics is pretty fun. On the second level the red guy will kill himself if you just stand underneath.

LD48 — Deeper and deeper (4)

Chess Hellevator by BoxedMeatRevolution 2021-05-03T16:15:34Z ♥ 1

Some really cool puzzles, good job.

The Quantum Menace by freamdev 2021-05-03T16:14:08Z ♥ 1

It was an interesting game, I liked the theme but I think the backgrounds could've used more variation and there maybe should be an indicator to show when something is reloading, but overall its good and those things aren't necessary in a jam game.

Dino Digger by dankar 2021-04-30T23:02:15Z ♥ 1

Fun puzzle game with a cool theme, good job. Interested to know where you see yourself taking this. Small note: I think there may be a bug where you may be able to move two of the big 2x1 blocks into each other.

Space Mining by Krapht 2021-04-30T22:56:41Z ♥ 2

Simple game but worked well. The music really helped the atmosphere, although I never really felt I was in danger because other than a few tight corridors you could use the jetpack to stay above the enemies - consider limiting the amount you can use? Good job overall.

LD47 — Stuck in a loop (6)

T.A.P.E. Acquiring Proof Expertly by p-brighenti 2020-10-19T21:53:48Z ♥ 1

Congrats on finishing the jam, its a really interesting idea and its well executed. I wish there was a button to repeat just the audio loop though...

The Little Perpetual Errand Boy by Bocchi-dev 2020-10-18T17:49:15Z ♥ 0

Good job with the game! One small comment, if you leave the castle from the inside by going left you should end up on the left side of it outside.

Epoch by Fictions 2020-10-13T20:09:25Z ♥ 3

Interesting idea, its pretty fun. I love the art and the voice acting. For some reason when I first played it I didn't realise there was a jump key so I spent quite a while trying to do the first level. The fact that you couldn't rearrange the objects without completely resetting the level was in that case quite annoying because it meant that despite having a "solution" much of the problem was guessing in what had to go where instead of being able to fix any slight errors. (TLDR I'm an idiot but rearranging the room without resetting would be useful if you're going to continue the game). Once I did realise you could jump, because of the floaty-ness of the jump it perhaps made the levels too easy, you could get across by using a small number of the most useful objects and stacking the rest next to the start location. Although the jump does offset the difficulties mentioned with not being able to edit the level. Obviously its a jam game so its not expected to be super complete and polished, and you do a really good job of what you did make and it was a lot of fun, so good job.

Populatio by FabDynamic 2020-10-09T21:42:46Z ♥ 1

Really cool concept, although it was infuriating to have so little control when you did miss, which I guess is the point. I did notice in the second level I didn't even have to move to win, which was quite cool. It was nice just watching the planets follow their paths. Good job!

TimeSplitters 4 by BlueCalx 2020-10-08T22:15:12Z ♥ 3

Really interesting puzzle concept and very well executed. I feel like being able to step backwards in time as well as forwards would be useful because the puzzles are so punishing even making a small mistake means you often have to skip through an entire loop, but obviously its very well done for a jam.

Its time to split!

Parallel Spin by perpetuaReality 2020-10-05T21:35:34Z ♥ 0

Interesting concept and well executed. Unfortunately it appears that if you press space to swap directions it resets the game. Was this intentional?

A Platfomer by ZenriS 2019-10-11T14:19:47Z ♥ 0

I found you can just place the spawner inside the end goal, so thats what I did

It may be your story by Keseril 2019-10-10T20:40:13Z ♥ 1

Congrats on your first game, the platforming was quite fun and it looked very good. I think the text colour could've been a bit more consistent at telling you what will happen when you hit it, there are a few jumps that are a bit fiddly so disrupt the flow of the game (e.g. proficiency) and some of the game design ideas went on for a little too long or were repeated too often. Overall good job, I hope you continue to make games.

LD44 — Your life is currency (2)

ChemisTree by tthe 2019-05-01T15:42:37Z ♥ 1

This was fun, good job! Sadly it crashes when I try to play on "Impossible" making the difficulty truly impossible. But the rest was good, congratulations.

Styx It To The Man by frostdragonliz 2019-05-01T15:26:04Z ♥ 1

Good job, really visually impressive. Minor comments the retire button didn't work (I guess it was just there for a goal post) and the shop did not open when I pressed enter either.

LD43 — Sacrifices must be made (2)

Sacrifices Must Be Made by danman9914 2018-12-05T12:23:01Z ♥ 1

This game was amazing the mood was incredible as was the art and the card game itself. I did find a bug where if you choose to put down the warren and then deselect it without putting it down or sacrificing anything you get the rabbits anyway. I may have used that to cheese my way to victory.

Amphora delivery by TomΓ‘Ε‘ Selmeci 2018-12-05T11:42:00Z ♥ 1

Great art and audio, but I think the enemy attack pattern never warranted use of the amphoras if you are patient enough

LD41 — Combine 2 Incompatible Genres (7)

Torn by IgorsGames 2018-04-24T23:01:40Z ♥ 1

Amazing atmosphere, cool music and graphics - I really like the art style. Can get very tense at times and the story was interesting. Strong gameplay. Good job!

Flayer & Puck by Blix 2018-04-24T19:54:07Z ♥ 3

This game is super cool. The atmosphere, graphics and choice of games to go with the ice hockey was amazing. The physics were kinda weird on the breakout level, but other than that I had no problems. Well done!

Highway Trouble by Code Dream 2018-04-24T19:34:35Z ♥ 1

Nice relaxing game. The music was really good and graphics were excellent. The AI was really cool to watch and the variation in car types was cool to see. Because of the acceleration if you play to about 300 the background scenery goes kinda crazy. As mentioned by some of the other commentors, collisions when you come back to the were kinda off. I like how the car starts flying when you start the minigame. Good job.

Daunting Dungeon by Jiri_One 2018-04-24T17:33:09Z ♥ 0

Nice atmosphere, very clean art style, good music. Very fun to line up the enemies and shoot them all down. Had some issues with resolution scaling - I couldn't see the ammo counter when it wasn't in full screen. Occasionally enemies would spawn on a tile I was moving onto. Really nice clean design though - could've had more variation - its really cool to have the trade off between moving around and being backed into corners and using your ammo as efficiently as possible. Overall really fun well polished game! Good job!

Broken Space Fish Shooter by ooku 2018-04-24T12:55:37Z ♥ 2

Interesting game. Fun playing around with the settings to try to optimise your controls, and its cool that you can still optimise the way you play around that. Works with the theme well. Scary as hell when the giant swarm of enemies drops in. Good job!

If your interested in seeing how people play the game: my high score was 40 and my settings were BorkenGame.png

Jump & Cards by Beh 2018-04-24T11:29:13Z ♥ 0

Cool idea and well implemented! Good job! I think the spikes after the first jump might be a little tricky for new people (or people who are bad like me), it took me a few tries. Other than that nice music (I guess choice of music), it had clear graphics. Good job!

Left for Bread by GregK 2018-04-24T11:18:40Z ♥ 0

Fun game, really nice graphics and music. I had a little trouble with the spawning, if I fell off the map sometime I would not react fast enough on respawn and just fall off the map again. But overall a good game, well done!

Famous Knight by Lucas Ferrantelli 2017-12-17T16:58:32Z ♥ 1

Really fun game, well done. If you were wondering what the game @weeping-rupee was referring to, I believe it is called "Super Cop Hero" https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/40/$66055 . Interesting how you used the same idea for the theme and ended up with such different games. Good job!

Crunch Time by gelisam 2017-12-10T01:20:05Z ♥ 1

Really good puzzle game by the way, took me a while to figure it out but once I had, very good. I think the reason why it took so long to work out was because the text is the same for one of the boxes on the first level as in the code complete, but that kinda made it more gratifying when you realise it.

Cave of Duty by Zielon 2017-12-05T23:09:42Z ♥ 2

Great game, music and art work so well, reminds me of a game I saw from Ludum Dare 33 "The Mammoth: A Cave Painting". Good Job

METAL SPACE by gui83140 2017-12-05T22:55:56Z ♥ 1

Fun over the top SHMUP, nice graphics and sound. WASD didn't seem to work properly for me though but arrow keys were fine, also says "You loose" instead of "You lose" but thats nit picking, good job!

Rat Hole City by MrChippy 2017-08-01T18:48:38Z ♥ 2

Game is really cool, actually pretty spooky when you start being chased and the song changes, the art style really works well, congrats.

One In the Chamber, One In the Socket by notApollogising 2017-08-01T18:40:43Z ♥ 0

2017-08-01 (2).png Fun game, very reminiscent of hotline miami, the addition of limited ammo made for some really cool levels, only complaint is the time between shots is a bit too long but I'm sure you had a good reason for it, congrats
