LD56 — Tiny Creatures (36)

Let's eat Grandma. by Yoav Kagan 2024-10-10T19:41:04Z ♥ 1

What a great consept, you should really continue with this and make it a complete game! Such great polish form art, settings page and music/sounds. You did an amazing job with this one! Love the last level with the programing word! Skärmklipp3.PNG

Flea or Flee Arcade by Martingonn 2024-10-10T07:42:24Z ♥ 0

What a great ludum dare entry! Loved the tension. You did a great job here! Well done :) P.s keep it up with all the support you've given in the comments, love seeing someone so passionate!

Reign by Xadeyl 2024-10-10T07:31:44Z ♥ 3

I love novels like this! Im always impressed how people can come up with storys for a game like this in such a short time. The art look great aswell! Well done here! :)

Whisker Warrior by Taximan981 2024-10-10T07:24:40Z ♥ 2

Amazing graphics! And as others had said, a perfect game for ludum dare, I got my cheese finally, well done here! :)

Blobbies by tuism 2024-10-10T07:13:46Z ♥ 0

Incredible polish for a jam game! Well done and as others have said, this has huge potential if you decide to create a full release! Well done with this one :) Skärmklipp2.PNG

Slimeow Game by Quan Ran 2024-10-10T06:49:52Z ♥ 2

What a game! Quite fun, well done with the gameplay, art and balance. With a bit of more balancing you might just have the next big hit :) Woul've been nice to have had a wave counter so you could compare with people, but other than that you guys did an amazing job with this one! Skärmklipp.PNG

Against All Odds by JuanRod707 2024-10-10T05:14:55Z ♥ 1

Great entry well done here! There is some polish needed like spiders gettings stuck, and having some indication of when spider would spawn. But overall a great entry!:)

HATCH by jelch 2024-10-10T05:12:31Z ♥ 2

Haha what a nice little pinball game, what a great take on the theme! Well done here :)

Void Creatures by KaDokta 2024-10-10T05:08:26Z ♥ 2

Great entry to for the jam! Everything felt so polished, the fact that you implemented a high score system i so smart! Well done here.

Evergrove by Chariot 2024-10-10T05:00:28Z ♥ 3

What an amazing entry for the jam! Really addictive, great movement and ai, only thing i noticed was that if i selected a building before having enough resources, i could cancel the build, so i had a red building floating on my mouse until i got enough resources. After looking at the description it mentioned to press Escape button, but that didnt work on the web version ^^ Otherwise well done here :)

Laverino by Kirass 2024-10-10T04:50:34Z ♥ 18

Sad that you had to cheat the system.. Otherwise this could have been good

Randimals by Violet Dykhoff 2024-10-10T04:45:49Z ♥ 1

What a cute little entry, love the consept! With a little polish, this could really have potential! Well done here :)

Mini Mutiny by BUDSTER16 2024-10-10T04:39:21Z ♥ 3

Great entry! The best movment I felt so far this ludum dare! But as others said, there seems to be a bug with the sensor calibration, cause I moved the purple indicator onto the green bar, but it never got off as finished. But overall great game! Well done :)

Roll to Attack by AStrayRae 2024-10-10T04:31:19Z ♥ 1

This could really have potential! The only problem I had was my bad aiming, had some trouble actully hitting the enemys. But other than that, I could really see myself play this kind of game! Well done, great entry! :)

The Immortals Snails by Dianavi 2024-10-10T04:25:29Z ♥ 1

Hahah what a fun concept! Great touch, of adding the rocket snail that charges the player! Well done here :)

TINY GOON (Ludum Dare 56) by SdCorpse 2024-10-10T04:21:57Z ♥ 2

Amazing, at first the movment was a bit hard to get used to, but after thhat. I really started to like it! Love the artstyle aswell. What a great entry, well done! :)

Tiny meat boys by Byzilio 2024-10-09T14:17:27Z ♥ 1

Great game and i could see this have potential! After some minor level fixes, and with some sounds! But overall a fun little game, well done! :)

Blackie by ZinYuTu 2024-10-09T14:04:14Z ♥ 2

A few bugs, but as you said one has to play the game in fullscreen mode for it to work. It could be mentioned on the itch page or in the description until its fixed, as I didnt get it to work until i saw your comment :) Another weird thing that happened was that when i went to options, and then back. The button hitboxes got messed up. So when i would press start, it would press exit instead. But otherwise a cozy entry! Well done :)

Snow Globe Grand Duel by Nadia Pixel 2024-10-09T13:55:39Z ♥ 3

A really nice looking and sounding game! The movement could be a bit unpredictable sometimes, and me and my partner never really understood the goal of the game exept try to get the seals to thier "goal". But overall a really good and cozy game! Well done :)

Night of Yurei by Mathkarma 2024-10-09T13:42:38Z ♥ 2

What a cool game, but as others have said, the movment keys took a bit of time to get used too. Some optimization would've been nive too. But overall a really good game! :)

Ballverse by Planetary 2024-10-09T13:20:46Z ♥ 1

Impressive game, I liked that you put time into making a good settings page! Also the gameplay felt super nice, sure a bit more coins would've been nive for play testing. But overall a really good entry! Well done :)

Monster Strike by COKE 2024-10-09T12:51:12Z ♥ 1

Great fun game, really like the consept! But got ear blasted by the game on start up, so would've been nice with a way to turn it off or lower it :) Another note, would be to speed the demons up a tiny bit, cause on level 2 it took quite some time to complete, without any player input. But other than that a great entry for this ludum dare! Well done :)

Lead and Conquer by AlvaroRomeral 2024-10-09T10:21:39Z ♥ 1

What a fun game! A couple of more levels would have been nice, and found what i think is a bug, where you could send troops right across the map, if you command them to attack a tower thats not on the yellow line. But overall super great entry!

Feeding the Farm by Zamizmi 2024-10-09T10:12:20Z ♥ 1

What a great little puzzle game! Well done.

Worm Eats Apples by Azimiro 2024-10-08T08:11:54Z ♥ 1

Me and my partner really liked this game! well more that i liked it, cause she wasent able to steer away from the water pools, so she kept losing her worm. But overall really good game! and keep it up, as a first entry its really fun! :)

Anthill by Tesseract 2024-10-08T08:06:16Z ♥ 1

Great entry and fun for this ludum dare round! I liked that you included a sandbox without the rain, cause at the start i had some trouble understanding how to build a good base. But after practising in sandbox, i went straight to try and beat the hard mode, but feel like the 15min is a bit long. Felt that after 7-10 i felt a bit of eye strain of all the rain and moving pixels. But overall a really good game! well done :)

Which animal are U? by aaLN 2024-10-08T07:58:30Z ♥ 0

At the end, i became a little yellow bird, the second run a wolf. Would've been more intriguing if the paths, to the animals was longer. But overall good entry :)

Tiny Trails by TheHirschfield 2024-10-07T10:40:53Z ♥ 1

Relaxing little game! Was only able to slain 6 enemies! But overall fun game :)

Stacking Zoo by j3m 2024-10-07T10:16:39Z ♥ 0

For only being made in 24 hours you made a really good game! I enjoyed my time playing this :) There was a problem tho with placing, where there was places where you were allowed to place say the elephant under a croc, but was not allowed to remove it afterwards. But overall that was nothing super anoying after finding. Well done here!

Beetle Brigade by bentglasstube 2024-10-07T09:30:33Z ♥ 1

I really liked it and feel like this has potential! But the unfortunately i didnt get to the end, it became a bit annoying that tthe bugs started without seemingly no indication, when i didnt have a clear path. Then again im not the greatest at these types of puzzle games :)

Feet Survivors by RilleP 2024-10-07T09:20:18Z ♥ 1

Unique idea! Liked the movement and gameplay, felt tho that the floors broke a bit to fast, so it was struggling to move while also killing the spiders. The game reminded me of an old game called, Smash your PC for some reason. Something about moving the body part, and destroying the floor :)

The Crawling Forest by vrerabek 2024-10-07T09:15:21Z ♥ 0

I really liked the atmosphere! An interesting concept :) But as others had said the text is a bit hard to read and a slight faster movementspeed would've helped :)

Flea Patrol by Sviborg 2024-10-07T08:50:50Z ♥ 3

Awesome game! Really creative :) Got to the end and was about to try to reach the 1000000000 fleas, but then after some quick maths, i realized that it would take me a goooood while so i took the loss.

Tiny Crowd by Kateryna 2024-10-07T08:40:07Z ♥ 1

Quite fun card game! Had some trouble understanding how to use the cards at the beginning. But once understod, I was able to rack up a score of 49970 points and a multiplier of 256. I liked the touch of removing squares in return of higher multiplier! Well done here :)

2048/Suika Tiny Creatures Version by Fernando Tonon de Rossi 2024-10-07T08:25:45Z ♥ 1

Good game, me and my partner got around 2060 points! As others said, dont know what to feel about the AI generated content as its not self made. But as you said, we dont have any clear rules for it yet. So id say its alright atleast this ludum dare :)

RomAnts by Douwe_Ravers 2024-10-07T08:17:49Z ♥ 1

Nice game concept! Took a bit of time for me to understand the controls, even tho you showed them here haha But overall fun game. I got 21 in score, so did my partner

LD48 — Deeper and deeper (2)

Maze Of The Minotaur by PythooonUser 2021-04-26T19:49:12Z ♥ 2

My time was 03:22 :) Everyting was just like a a ludum dare game should be small, fun, and an experience. I agree what @iman said. The levers hitboxes where a bit hard to find but the rest was great! (For one second I tought the whistling was something/someone that was following me, even tho they sound just like birds)

Debt Collector by thomz12 2021-04-26T19:37:28Z ♥ 2

The leaderboard was a great addition! Made me wanna go another round after another! fun game :)

LD42 — Running out of space (5)

Clot! by Ghoster 2018-08-18T04:58:38Z ♥ 1

I had a lot of fun with this one. The only negative I can think of right now is that the audio is too quiet; I turned my volume all the way up and still could barely hear it.

Celestial Lacuna by bennyqbd1 2018-08-18T04:13:40Z ♥ 0

I had to mute the audio, then remembered I can't play games without sound.

I thought it was interesting that the enemies could kill each other.

There should be some sort of visual indicator for the invulnerability frames when the player respawns. It took me a few deaths to realized there were any and I have no clue how long I have to find a safe place among the bullets before they run out.

The Usher by zarph741 2018-08-18T03:49:25Z ♥ 0

Either the timer should be extended or the happiness meter should be the only thing that determines failure. The happiness meter never went to the negative side and was full most of the time, but I still lost because there wasn't enough time to move around even when I didn't overstep by mistake.

Disk Driver by Ethan Kennerly 2018-08-18T03:23:14Z ♥ 0

@shockwire pretty much says it all.

The obstacles should have been spread out more so that the long hallway didn't exist and to allow the player some time to get used to the the controls. I find the current layout too hard or too easy depending on where the player moves.

The only benefit to the hallway is that I got to sit there and listen to the sweet music.

UB Extreme by adilipan 2018-08-17T16:35:34Z ♥ 1

Yeah what @daanvanyperen said, with a bit of tweaking it could become really fun! ^^

LD39 — Running out of Power (11)

Power Surge by danielilett 2017-08-01T17:56:38Z ♥ 1

I must say this was super fun. The different energy gathering modes. Thoo I would've like you to tell me I could hold down the mouse button to mine the coal, I clicked every single coal until I was 100 meters down :P Another thing was that I didn't really understand the nuke power, I added the sticks when they ran out but it said "click and drag to rotate the turbine" nothing happened when I did that, could it be that its a bug? But I really enjoyed the coal mining there was something satisficing about it, ended up mining down to 416 meters. ^^ My gems: Ruby: 8 Sapp: 4 emer: 2 Well mate! ^^

Powerless by Aurel300 2017-08-01T17:34:16Z ♥ 1

Overall I felt it was a bit challenging to understand at the start, but after a while I started to get my head around it. I liked it after all! Well done! ^^

D34TH by Falk Bruskeland 2017-08-01T17:19:45Z ♥ 0

For being a first time it was great! The sounds and graphics were cute. I felt thoo like the z and x was a bit weird but nothing hard to get used to ^^ keep up the good work mate! ^^

Harvest And Extract by Kthulhu1947 2017-07-31T13:20:55Z ♥ 1

neat idea! There's a few thing I would change, first make it so you can restart the game without needing to restart the game. And then make oil a bit more common. But for being your second Ludum dare, Well done! And keep up the work ^^

Televised Intelligence Manager (TIM) by ianburnette 2017-07-31T13:08:50Z ♥ 1

My first impressions of the game where the funny narrator and how funny the robot was moving, I felt like sonic at the begining. but it fell off fast(the feel I mean) I really liked the game but after a while, it started to feel a bit slow. And the movement system started to make me salty. I really couldn't tell where I was going to land on the position jumping part and that made it super hard and salt inducing. But if you're going to make a full game of it be sure to let me know, I would really love to play that aswell :D Well, dude!

Power Tripping: Keeping It Cool by Sarah 2017-07-31T12:55:50Z ♥ 1

Interesting idea ^^ Took a little bit of time to figure out the gameplay but when I started to got a hang of it, I felt like I started to think like the fridge/ be one with the fridge. Well done, for being your first compo!

p.s For anybody giving this game a try, you can cool down multiple foods at the same time if they are close enough to each other :P

Generator #4875 by Lyon 2017-07-31T12:34:36Z ♥ 1

wow, this is a surprisingly fun game! (I'm actually still playing this while typing this review cause I wanted to see if I could get the battery all the way charged) Must say I like almost everything about it, the atmosphere, art-style and game idea! Well done mate! (Edit) This is a real button smasher, think I broke my keyboard :P

PRAY FOR TESLA by slovnoslomo 2017-07-31T12:20:21Z ♥ 1

I really would love to see a full version of this game! It was fun! Thoo I couldn't figure out how the Absorber worked so I just placed a few down around the star ^^. but my highest record was around 300 ^^

Jumping Jehosaphat by moltanem2000 2017-07-31T12:11:35Z ♥ 0

It was fun, I enjoyed it! The only problem I had is the same problem @oxrock had. But for being a Ludum dare game it's just a small bug ^^ well done mate!

Jeff Long Run by Matoux42 2017-07-31T12:05:40Z ♥ 0

I gave this game a good 20min but couldn't beat the first level :D. It's a fun idea but I would've liked it to have a resizeable window cause it didn't really fit my laptop screen :/ but overall if the character would've run a bit slower I think I could've managed to beat the first level ^^

White bubble by Thuvareyn 2017-07-30T23:22:20Z ♥ 0

First!(...) No, but it looks nice and for being your first ld well done! I'll remember to pass by again when they have opened votes ^^

LD38 — A Small World (12)

King Of The Seals by MiggyG 2017-05-02T09:41:38Z ♥ 2

This game I GREAT! It made me laught my lungs out haha ^^ I hope you decide to make a phone version of this game. I can see myself playing this while sitting on a train. My score was: 152. Good luck and well done ^^

Humanity Simulator by RabbitTortoise 2017-05-02T09:34:15Z ♥ 2

A well made game. It really made you think about how we destory our world, just to get some cash. There was some bugs. like the one where you got stuck on some tiles. But overall i think its a really well made game! Good luck and well done you guys! ^^

Hibernaculum by redpanda 2017-05-01T20:15:17Z ♥ 1

Great game! The graphics are the best! ^^ The music is well made. and the gameplay is fun ^^

Antagonistic : Hamburger Hill by ryte2byte 2017-05-01T18:50:36Z ♥ 2

It was fun and i agree what @psychead said. You made a game that could keep me entertained but the mechanics where odd. Overall a great start ^^

Colorfly by Zelos 2017-05-01T18:27:09Z ♥ 1

This game is probably one of the best games i've ever playd on ludum dare. I just love the atmosphere and the great combination with music! It's just overall an good experience! ^^ Much feels.. much greatness.. much beauty.. You really did a great job on this one! p.s You really got the music perfect! ^^

Cat Ed by Fedor 2017-05-01T15:43:13Z ♥ 1

Nice little game! it surprisingly fun ^^ Thoo, you should make a button that resets the game. So you don't have to press Play everytime you die. And maybe remove the characters ability to move left and right, only make the player able to jump. That would make it alot easier. It was fun anyway. Great job ^^

Space Raiders by Smeax 2017-05-01T15:32:22Z ♥ 2

I too really loved playing this. It's a bit difficult getting out of the hearth pit after you fall down. And the character was a bit hard to see at some points. But i still all in all really enjoyd playing. Good job ^^

Near kingdoms by Hadik 2017-05-01T12:19:40Z ♥ 1

Fun little game :D I rly enjoyed it! I playd it on easy and normal and stormed the shit out of the enemy castle ^^ Thoo it would've been nice if there could've been some castle uppgrade off some sort.

Earth Invaders by MrGussio 2017-05-01T08:29:08Z ♥ 1

Nice game guys! Simple but fun ^^

The World At Your Feet by Geared Games 2017-05-01T08:25:40Z ♥ 1

It was fun. rly enjoyed it! ^^

Myrddin by cogcomp 2017-05-01T08:18:42Z ♥ 2

Nice start ^^ It was rly hard to understand where i was going most of the time and the red tint made it kinda hard to see stuff, but overall the game gave me a diablo vibe some how :P it was fun!

4 Hours by Zer0Kelvin 2017-05-01T08:06:53Z ♥ 1

Its an nice idea, and a fun one too! I kinda broke the game at level 3 at the first part thoo. I could fly across the map. And if i pressed esc i would fall right down again. All in all it was a good game ^^

LD34 — Two Button Controls / Growing (3)

JellyPirates by Blobby101 2015-12-15T16:08:00

its was a bit buggy. textures started flying xD

Colony 3028 by klianc09 2015-12-15T15:14:00

i cant download the game, try to upload it to itch.io

Let Me Explain by OwT 2015-12-15T15:09:00

The game didnt work for me :/
