LD31 — Entire Game on One Screen

Hauler 31 by benmcnelly 2014-12-11T22:10:00

Audio was great, I played all the way through. Had no major issues with the game. Good Work, Rift capable was also sweet!

Platform Pile Up by Lavendark 2014-12-11T22:17:00

Nice work! Playable for sure.

Asterion by TiagoJDFerreira 2014-12-11T22:19:00

First screen is really pretty. Nice work!

First of Many by Anikki 2014-12-11T21:51:00

I am obsessed with Rim world right now and got the same kind of feeling here. Top down strategy can be a lot of fun! Might have used an easier font to read, but all and all nice work!

LD32 — An Unconventional Weapon

HALLAWAY by benmcnelly 2015-04-20T19:04:00

Your life is my money by squaredev 2019-05-02T05:28:02Z

So much content how did you have time for all this! defeating the bandits could have been more difficult I think. Honestly this game is incredibly polished and the world size is perfect. Great Game! 4.5 from me.

Ludum Meta by Exevalon 2019-05-02T05:19:27Z

I Burn by mamoniem 2019-05-02T06:09:51Z

Lifetime by AMastryukov 2019-05-02T04:45:51Z

Music was perfect, controls were great, overall nice work! This is one of my favorites so far.

Sheep It by anstabo 2019-04-30T22:40:25Z

Very nice game entry! Very polished, I am a huge fan of the colors and mood. This game had me laughing sheep were a great choice.

For A Bike by hwaet 2019-05-02T05:02:11Z

I like diving into a game like this and playing to see where it takes you. The game needs better graphics and graphic tweaks. But it has a great feeling and put a smile on my face a few times. Thanks for making a fun game!

Flip Me Off! by Bob174 2019-05-02T04:18:12Z

Art and style were on point! fun playable game, Nice work!

Arkane Defense by Eugen Eistrach 2019-05-02T06:08:01Z

Played through several times, this was a fun game! Towers were weak but other than that everything was really balenced. Good job!

unbound. by jellzilla 2019-05-02T05:23:56Z

Fun game! I love double jump mechanics in games and some of the puzzles were really solid. I didn't get any audio which was my only complaint.

A Shooter Confrontation between the Society of the Sanguine Faith and Dracula by Hyperbian Games 2019-05-02T06:12:44Z

Intense game! Had fun and enjoyed the music. Congrats on a really good entry. The game got really hard which I like to see.

The Money Hole by miu 2019-05-02T05:05:33Z

Story was lacking at times but art and pacing made up for it. Solid entry!

Front Line Fury by hernandack 2019-05-02T04:28:03Z

Great idea for this theme. I think you got the damage between towers damage and enemies just right. I like the overall level of polish and graphics for something made so quickly. Geat job!

Lena & Tubs in: The Shattered Chateau by Matt Fabius 2021-10-05T04:50:58Z

Style was very pleasing. I love the dual inputs it made sense here and worked well. Well done!

Mech Mapper by theStoff 2021-10-05T05:19:44Z

Blown away, this was so much fun I played for 30 min trying different combos. Tip: USE BLANK piece you will never get there without expanding the base. Great game!

Graphics and mood are on point! Difficulty felt right. What does the tree do? Congrats, great entry!

Dumb Ways To Dodo by Virtual Window 2022-04-05T18:46:08Z

Concept of the game is great and hilarious! Fun, cute graphics with a fun world to explore! It was a little difficult to figure out how to play at first and I think some of the mechanics are broken maybe? I glitched twice and had to ALT F4. But the game is fun and with some polish I would defiantly be addicted!

Ceiling is Lava by Olivier Millochau 2022-04-05T03:00:07Z

Awesome entry! The tutorials were fun and let you be creative in solving each level. Congrats on a great game.

OBRUTA by Dmitry Kaidash 2022-04-05T02:14:11Z

Very nice!!! I loved the art style. I found myself wanting to rotate the camera to see more of the pretty grass :)

Congrats on a very good entry.

InevitaBALL by Thenerdster 2022-04-05T21:49:55Z

@andrground Thank you for the feedback. The scope was to large for the game I worked on Friday-Saturday. I eventually scrapped it and went with this smaller concept.I had little time to polish though.

InevitaBALL by Thenerdster 2022-04-07T04:12:53Z

@yukimiitsuka @ffffchai @cover-club-media @otterfaelure Thank you all for the feedback and the compliments to my game. Good luck to you all!

InevitaBALL by Thenerdster 2022-04-08T00:10:57Z

@nate-bit-games Thank you! Wow awesome suggestions!

Tanky the Eternal Tank by NorthernDevGuy 2022-04-07T04:09:30Z

Can't say enough about the art work and progression gameplay. Very well done!

Spooky Gothic Siege by Kszaku 2022-04-06T02:58:11Z

Played this for way to long, well done! Congrats on a solid entry.

Dinosurvivor by YukimiItsuka 2022-04-07T04:10:32Z

Style, artwork, graphics all very well done. I think the sound effects were PERFECT. Congrats on a great entry!

Delay the Inevitable by Gix 2022-04-07T04:15:23Z

Intutive simple controls. I like that you let the gameplay speak for itself no. Great entry!

Project Timeswall by Lisichka 2022-04-06T03:12:22Z

I was not expecting the map to change. Great entry I love this art style and the simplicity of the UI. Well done!

Bloody Dungeon by ZEN 2022-04-05T03:09:03Z

So much pressure! In a good way it was intense clock ticking down, bleeding out. Heart was pounding, great game!

Highrail to hell by BadPiggy 2022-04-05T03:14:32Z

Very impressive entry! Graphics and mood should score high. Congrats I enjoyed it a lot.

Bee Rescue by DmitryGalias 2022-04-05T20:19:57Z

Took turns playing this game with my daughter and we ended up playing for over an hour! The art is awesome, sounds and music is satisfying, the game play (once we figured it out) was easy enough but the puzzle of timing and trying to beat each others "high score" was so much fun! I would suggest to add a high score tally at the end because we forgot to check the timer after we died most of the time. Also being able to heal our tree a little maybe? Or add health when you build more trees? Overall really fun game! PS My daughter would like to know when she can download the game on her phone :)

Sapper Master by yusovv 2022-04-07T04:11:28Z

I was so confused at first but then I started to get it. Really fun! great work on mood and graphics.

Indestructible Paws by GameBucha 2022-04-05T20:29:46Z

Would really like to play but it looks broken. Screenshot 2022-04-05 152900.png

Mad Monkey Manor by not-tomo 2022-04-07T04:19:06Z

Sound took this game from good to great. Nice work!

Feed'em all by Gastar 2022-04-07T04:17:59Z

The ammo had me rolling! Great take on tower defence. Nice work!

Slip or Trip by erikengineengineer 2022-04-05T18:17:06Z

Great game. The amount of characters is impressive and fun! Game play is simple but challenging enough to keep you engaged.

Night Castle Battle by YaMaisiukDranko 2022-04-06T03:18:58Z

Great concept and art, the mood was there for this kind of game. Like others mentioned some mechanics were not working properly.

AquaGone by firescape games 2022-04-05T02:25:16Z

Such a simple game but you added some real creativity with the hidden items and tigers etc. Well done!

Bleed by Carbon6 2022-04-08T01:50:27Z

Hitting is hard, a good challenging game! A little work could be done to make aim better. But solid entry, a lot of fun,

WE ARE DOOMED by andrground 2022-04-05T02:16:39Z

I like your entry. I felt like a super hero. :) Congrats!

Death and Taxes by DingoBandito 2022-04-06T03:14:12Z

Space Saw Defense by Hgaddy 2022-04-06T03:22:21Z

Gravity/orbit fighter is such a cool idea. Well exicuted! Congrats.

LD52 — Harvest

Red Storm Harvest by massivejack 2023-01-10T11:40:04Z

Wow! Best entry I have played so far. It took me several attempts but I eventually got that sweet credit music. Great job! Mechanics felt great, theme was on point. Really Good Mate!

LD54 — Limited Space

Tunnel Tiler by cogcomp 2023-10-03T20:50:53Z

- Nice execution on graphics, audio, and mood - Fit the theme - Spawns could use a little tweaking

I enjoyed your entry!

Vessel Run by freamdev 2023-10-02T08:01:40Z

What an excellent little game. I may have broken the UI spamming modules in and out. But this was fun. Great Job!

The Ones You Keep by Hugimugi7 2023-10-03T09:15:46Z

Wow! Excellent game entry. Intriguing gameplay and solid graphics, audio, theme. Well done!

LD54 - Pack-Man's limited space by Ifman1 2023-10-02T21:16:08Z

Nice work, it’s always the }*#^{^ Ghosts. Seriously well done, congrats on completing @ifman1

Emilien In Paris by Bigaston 2023-10-03T20:41:39Z

Great concept for the theme. Everyone should give this a try. Placing furniture and moving the room felt good. I do with you have the option to back out of a room. I accidently kept clicking on rooms I already finished and had to recomplete them. Great entry!

Profits in Proportion by don.shinski 2023-10-03T04:33:50Z

My art looked terrible but I was making money haha. Nice entry UI felt great. Congrats on a solid entry!

Pattern by Jammin 2023-10-02T21:13:50Z

Neat idea, I didn’t counter the same bug couldn’t correct it once it started. I love chill calming games, best I have rated so far. Congrats!

Too Many Towers! by rekate 2023-10-03T04:07:11Z

This is a great entry. I wish I could see generator health without having it on screen. Really fun 8min is my best time. Lots of fun!!

SpaceTime by Thenerdster 2023-10-03T04:32:19Z

@don-shinsk Thanks for playing! This was my first real solo game I am used to having my friends to help point things like that out. I learned a lot this jam, which is what matters to me. :)

SpaceTime by Thenerdster 2023-10-03T09:12:19Z

@svkj Thank you so much, I wanted you to have to push the block off and jump to it. But then my kid showed me you could just jump from on top of the block and make it.

SpaceTime by Thenerdster 2023-10-03T09:13:04Z

@langit @metagen thank you for the advice and for playing my game. <3

SpaceTime by Thenerdster 2023-10-03T09:22:23Z

@empyreans woah! That’s a Great time. Thanks, something to do with falling animation perhaps. Thank you for pointing out the jump bug.

SpaceTime by Thenerdster 2023-10-03T20:36:29Z

@hajpappan @flying-butter-studio Thank you for playing and the feedback! I am excited to play your games :)

SpaceTime by Thenerdster 2023-10-04T00:41:06Z

@walaber @alpie Thanks for playing. I have my head wrapped around Unreals Blueprint model now. Excited to try some new things out.

Notable Deeds by Yheeky 2023-10-02T21:18:20Z

I really enjoyed Notable deeds. I don’t know how people build so much complexity in such a short amount of time. Great job!

Too Many Marbles by Thomas Volpato 2023-10-03T20:53:59Z

I liked the sound effects but no music makes the gameplay feel slow. The gameplay holds up I just think there are some gaps between the exciting parts. The physics and controls were great. Congrats on a solid entry!

Falling for my Majesty by edugpinheiro 2023-10-02T21:28:28Z

Awesome entry! I swear some bats are unavoidable :laughing:. Audio and artwork were on point!

Metagirls by MetaGen 2023-10-04T00:39:26Z

I like this game, felt good and fit the theme well. Maybe a camera shake or flash when taking damage. Just a suggestion. Congrats on submitting a solid entry.

Plots LLC by Matt Swieboda 2023-10-03T04:29:07Z

Puzzle was not to easy and congrats on keeping it challenging all the way through. Assets and graphics fit well. Solid entry!

Fridge Frenzy by ScottMakesGames 2023-10-03T09:24:25Z

Oh man VR controls would have made this game interesting, I picked up the wrong item sometimes, somehow but over all no major problems enjoying your game. Well done!

COSMOSTRIDE by Catusfelony 2023-10-03T03:18:38Z

I don't play a lot of flying sims or pilot games. But man I thought the double crosshair to know my shooting angle was so cool. Also adding modules and levels. Great entry!

Afraid by Renge 2023-10-04T00:37:47Z

Easy to understand even though you built in a lot of detail. Gameplay was smooth, I enjoyed it. I too thought I could just do whatever I want quickly learned I need a strategy. Nice entry

Waylight by Javid Ladhani 2023-10-03T09:29:50Z

That was awesome! I could tell tons of work went into the creatures and audio. Artwork and mood are where this game shines the brightest. Pacing was also nice. Great entry!

Island Mushroom Rescue by Pe7e 2023-10-02T08:16:42Z

Music and artwork fit the vibe. A couple small bugs but a smooth experience overall. Great job!

Astro Bastion by Soul Grinder 2023-10-03T20:59:32Z

Like @rend said Sokoban vibes. I enjoyed the complexity where you normally find boilerplate gamedesign. Like Towers and astroids. Great Job!

Sailing the Squeeze by hajpappan 2023-10-02T21:25:50Z

I encountered some bugs but overall easy well made gameplay. I’m glad controls were not over complicated. Good job!

Airpansion by Beeb GameCodeCompany 2023-10-04T00:44:17Z

Excellent entry! Voice acting and unique graphics made this epic. Honestly a good concept for this theme too. Congrats on a great entry. I felt a little slow at times but not unplayable.

Liquid Liftoff by Buni 2023-10-02T21:22:24Z

Hilarious! I love the audio I was cracking up the Lego head twitch glitch. Great entry and concept. Congrats on your submission.

Limited Grades by Triangle Point 2023-10-02T08:41:46Z

Very creative. Art and music are a good fit. I Kept dying at the Rocketeer meets flappy bird part. Congrats on your entry!

Deep Sea by OccasionalEgg 2023-10-04T00:32:06Z

Graphic and mood were on point. I had a wierd bug but I think it was my machine because I couldn't replicate it later. Really great work!

Tetromino Cleanup by f1tzy 2023-10-03T21:03:40Z

My 10 year old loves your game, we moved on to play other games and then she asked to come back to yours. Top score finally over 800. Small bug with the character moving for some reason butI couldn't replicate it. - Really great entry!

Pentomaniac by Flying Butter Studio 2023-10-03T09:36:28Z

Had feelings of nostalgia the whole time. There is something so familiar with your game. It had some difficult places (apartment) etc.? Really great entry!

Torch by Gyrooo 2023-10-03T03:14:27Z

Excelent work, the anxiety is real when the torch is going out. Checkpoint system is cool. Great job!

Moving Day by Rodrobry 2023-10-03T20:47:24Z

This is great! I love the explosions. I did find a bug when trying to place the "L" pieces. If you move the piece to the right, just before it is placed it moves left. Perhaps making the camera view more parallel with the play area would be better. Seriously though great game!!

Greasy Justice by kasmilus 2023-10-02T08:36:03Z

This had way more complexity then I was expecting. I liked being able to move a whole group of aliens forward at once. The game play was complicated but actually pretty intuitive. Nice Entry, great concept!

Pactory by Ralian 2023-10-02T08:14:11Z

I love this entry! And after playing several levels I now understand why there are videos of delivery/postal workers chucking and slamming packages :laughing:. The Circle/gear packages were a great idea it made for some unique difficulty. Great entry!

Gros épée by Courgette 2023-10-02T21:11:57Z

I keep seeing a guy on social media, wielding, one of these giant sword. Haha beautiful graphics. Congrats on a great entry!

Shrink Up by 0Point 2023-10-03T09:19:59Z

Visually stunning! I caught myself distracted by how cool everything looked. Art and lighting made this graphically spectacular. Well done!

Space Ltd by The XJ Project 2023-10-03T20:57:42Z

I changed my rating twice, at first I didn't rate the mood or humor high enough. :laughing: After playing a bit longer I had fun with this. Borders overlap when the shouldn't sometimes when placing items, that was the only bug I found. Great job!

wordward-draw by fasgfsa 2023-10-02T08:28:19Z

This is not a place to advertise prereleased games. This isn't a valid entry for Ludum Dare 54.

Space Limiter Warp Drive by 2TheGameChanger 2023-10-02T08:25:37Z

Instant nostalgia from the old browser flash games of the past. Great gameplay, good match to the theme. Congrats on a great entry.

Small Fish Smaller Tank by Peter Niles 2023-10-03T04:27:09Z

[SCORE :24] WOOT!

Great game, good job on theme. dashing felt good. Congrats on your entry!

Escape the maze by bayunyoubi 2023-10-02T08:07:54Z

Not sure if you want that editor style screenshot. But if you want a gameplay screenshot in Unreal Engine, you can run your game in the editor then press F8 (which gives you access to your mouse again) then you can use the hamburger menu button in the top left of the editor then select "highresolution screenshot".

Congrats on a great entry!

Vengeance of the Black Baron by Taavi 2023-10-02T08:48:03Z

Nice Entry, I wish tthe game was longer, which I think means you did something right. Seriously though congrats on your entry. Cheers

Warehouse Tycoon by MaksimJ 2023-10-04T00:48:04Z

How did you do all this in such a short time. So impressive! Congrats man you should be really proud of this game. - Good fit for theme - Graphics were sharp and made sense for the concept.

Great Job!

Outta Space by Empyreans 2023-10-03T04:24:51Z

Where the game at bro?
