LD40 — The more you have, the worse it is

Tycoon of the HighSeas by RelicTooth 2017-12-10T08:55:35Z

I like goal of the game and awesome underwater environment.

LD44 — Your life is currency

PathOfForest by ThiefViolinist 2019-05-04T06:50:38Z

.

Wild Card Necromancer by JOrbits 2019-05-04T07:14:32Z

Very interesting idea and fun gameplay, one of the best game i saw on ld44, good job :heart:. Also hotkeys will be very convenient.

Heart of the Grove by johnnydalvi 2019-05-04T06:51:18Z

Really very similar ideas. Your game gives an impression that it finished product. I like graphics and ent-deer design, very atmospheric. Music and gameplay at a high level too. Good job.

Tree life : Dwarven Invasion by Yohsk13 2019-05-04T07:39:56Z

Oh, those sneaky dwarves! I love TD, unfortunately no upgrades here, but this was fun to play anyway, good job. Also our game has similar idea.

They ran out of mana by Sergi Montaner 2019-05-04T06:58:30Z

I like card's names and hilarious description.

LD46 — Keep it alive

Blood Oath by alexhonor 2020-04-22T19:17:00Z

TOO MUCH SCREEN SHAKE, but good game in general. Nice art and gameplay.

Keep the Beet Alive by Tad 2020-04-21T06:34:31Z

Nice idea, i love games with rhythm based mechanics. Art style looks nicely. Good job. I am not sure it is a bug or feature, but seems that you cant attack after snails have been crawled too close to the hero.

SuperOgre64 by BlueCalx 2020-04-22T19:34:44Z

Good concept and game itself. it can be another goal for n knights to "deal" with ogre. Good job.

LD48 — Deeper and deeper

Corpse Clue by nusan 2021-05-05T19:21:10Z

Agree with commentators higher - very atmospheric, would like to see something like this as small game.

Ancient Heart by ThiefViolinist 2021-05-14T09:30:49Z

@brandon-hare nice to hear that you enjoyed our game, thanks for feedback. We thought about adding regen, but forgot about it in last hours.

Ancient Heart by ThiefViolinist 2021-05-14T11:55:36Z

@alprog there is capsule with code that you must just write and then press enter, capsule appears after drone death

Deepest Sword by Strega 2021-05-02T07:54:40Z

Have finished it in 22 32. Super fun game and looks really complete especially for LD. Sword Feels really good, nice job, gg wp

beat it second time in 11 11

Bunny Bunny Dig Dig by ZakAmana 2021-05-05T20:54:47Z

Graphics is adorable, gameplay is fun, good job. Combat mechanics is also very good. Very impressive for 2 days. @zakaman can you tell me more about level generation?

nvm, there is source code

Deep molatoes by leggy 2021-05-05T18:45:21Z

Really impressive for 20 hours. On my first time all my molatoes died except one but i still managed to win lul. Love highlighted text in description, reminds me Slay the Spire. Will be glad to see your next game, good luck.

Wander through the caves in search of a new nest by arekb 2021-05-05T19:51:48Z

Love this psychedelic environment. Good feeling to be the FROGS OVERLORD!!! I think i got bug(?) - after pressing V i controlled my character and frogs ball in the same time. Also would be cool to add some screenshots and little description to post. Good job.

LD49 — Unstable

Betatester by ThiefViolinist 2021-10-09T09:54:06Z

@beardywombat thanks for feedback, did you manage get to casino?

Betatester by ThiefViolinist 2021-10-09T11:11:42Z

sad, we were afraid of something like this,you need to change some settings in menu to pass throught bugged door

Betatester by ThiefViolinist 2021-10-13T19:35:40Z

@yodog sadly we didn't have time to make some clear hints for it. Yes you need to use boxes to move forvard throught level @bihenaso yes, it is, congrats @makimopl unfortunately even we don't have them so we can't test second level :pensive: thanks you all for feedback

LD52 — Harvest

Orchard Archer by icxon 2023-01-17T21:49:48Z

Really good take, love games about archers with bow shooting mechanic

Bank Harvester by malibaturhan 2023-01-27T08:53:19Z

The hardest part of the game was dealing with the inversion huh. I couldnt understand how to plant first 3 minutes, I guess what I read as "C" was "E" in the font(better to write controls in the game page too). I love graphics and atmosphere overall. About gameplay, probably you can make some rules that to harvest/plant specific plant you need it to be surrounded by other specific plants, like this red plant - R, green plant G R-G-R ----R to make it more interesting/challenging(and remove rotting in this case). Hope you next game will be even better, see you next LD. 0/

LD55 — Summoning

Hoomans vs. Deemons by Lintfordpickle 2024-04-17T11:26:51Z

Timelapse is super cool, thanks for sharing. What plugin do you use to draw in obsidian like this?

Slimeleon by icxon 2024-04-17T07:37:47Z

Nice idea with drawing spell mechanics, reminds me few old games with similar feature.

In addition of what @the-neon-shark already said you can make each unit being useful against certain enemy, building etc. Also could be cool to see enemy summoners.

Devotion - A fairytale by daandruff 2024-04-19T18:50:42Z

very atmospheric game and nice art

Tristram by Rongo Matane 2024-05-05T17:55:58Z

Undying cleric

Tao by leorean 2024-04-19T16:46:47Z

5/5, followed, subscribed, will play again

Summoning for Dummies by Cievers 2024-04-28T10:39:23Z

Beat the game on second try. Would be nice to see some roguelike with this mechanic, also want to have abilities to skip turn and choose what enemy to attack(with certain spells)

School is Hell by Gizmo199 2024-04-29T17:46:37Z

Overall: A Fun:B Innovation: C Theme: B Graphics:A+ Audio:A Humor:B+ Mood:A+ Very nice game, actually started to feel more fun at the end.

Tremblewood by Hawkin 2024-04-19T19:37:24Z

It was fun, nice game. Can make little sandbox from it potentially, like you have heavy guarded castle in center of map and villages around it. You can raid villages for resources, raise army of undeads and try to siege a castle.

Command: Summon by Gastar 2024-04-23T16:55:51Z

Very cool using of theme and game overall, got 7/7

Sum on! by altaf-creator 2024-04-30T20:36:39Z

Nice game, art and sounds are decent. Really love using of theme. + for tutorial. Now about gameplay, it looks like rushing to big numbers is the best strat. Also modifiers seems to bad after you got big number due to /. One option i see is to remove big numbers(or rather implement them in different wat) and make mods partly revealed based on distance to you maybe(?). Like you see number or operation, if it's big number it's + or - most likely, something like that. Maybe add colors to circles and rules baed on that, if you eat blue last then mods are inverted, if yellow then +5 to next modifier value etc. Overall pretty well rounded and finished game for combo.

Baphocat by onqdll 2024-04-26T18:10:57Z

very nice atmosphere

LD58 — Collector

Lunar Burden by Iluvatar 2025-10-13T13:03:38Z

Probably the most polished game i played this LD, well done

Colour thief by ThiefViolinist 2025-10-18T19:54:16Z

@dis0rder thanks for playing and giving review. > or then you didn’t push the update to the Linux-build I was playing

Yes, only web version was updated. Spikes feel a lot better compared to local versions > I appreciate you went and included a Linux-build!

We use it as well

> made the game playable even on my ancient trash-hardware.

wow, cool

> Another thing I found a bit annoying was doing the lengthier jumps in the Level #4 - Puzzle. Since you can’t see the characters feet (well, the default Unity-blob doesn’t have them!), it’s hard to estimate whether you’re really tip-toeing on the edge of an platform or not.

Ye, u need to get used to it a bit. Btw you can beat puzzle level with stealing colors in right order and then time your last jump precisely or use shift for sprint jump and then it's a lot easier(and colors order doesnt matter i think).

Colour thief by ThiefViolinist 2025-10-20T20:46:29Z

@jojopalambas nice, you are top 1 in leaderboard now

Colour thief by ThiefViolinist 2025-10-22T09:44:27Z

@revetoon very strange, i will blame windows as usually :pray:

Chaotic Containers by Dis0rder 2025-10-13T09:54:24Z

Reminded me old flesh games, was fun

Voltaic Harvest by dxk2294 2025-10-12T08:30:04Z

Really polished game, especially for jam. I enjoyed it. Screenshot from 2025-10-12 11-25-21.png

Eccentricity by Lefinno 2025-10-11T16:18:55Z

It was fun. I think took space over upgrades every time except 2(i think +gold for every 10 gold and more rare things, i never had problems with gold tho). Sapphires are OP. I guess there are 2 another builds with heat maxing and batteries. Also map changing angle feels a bit annoying. Great game overall.

Screenshot from 2025-10-11 19-11-36.png

Kidnap Equation by koro.games 2025-10-11T17:42:27Z

Nice game, i love artstyle and atmosphere overall. As i understood 2 regular endings are when u say yes/no after 3rd catch and secret is when you prefer to save 1 human several times(game kinda glitched when i did that so im not sure)

Mailbox Mania by Wuppos 2025-10-19T09:12:25Z

Coffee makes it's a bit hard to control, maybe something like coffee gives usable nitro that you can spend when you want could feel nicer. Art is very neat and music is fitting. Great game overall, feels very polished for jam Screenshot from 2025-10-19 12-07-35.png

Curious Collectors by Tobius 2025-10-16T19:35:32Z

Interesting concept. I like chars design and VA as well. Tooth fairy could be enemy/npc monster for some game fantasy game. Screenshot from 2025-10-16 22-34-41.png

MelodyWalker by HEGRIGORII 2025-10-07T09:07:04Z

Good idea, reminded me of magicka a bit. Also, teleport spell broke my game Screenshot from 2025-10-07 11-55-25.png
