LD29 — Beneath the Surface (9)

Under the bed by Kyatric 2014-04-30T00:18:00

Hey Kyatric,

I already played and rated your game earlier today, but since you wrote a nice long comment at my game, it only seems fair to give you a comment as well.

First of all, I think it's a nice concept, I think you can do some fun things with the light mechanic. But to be honest, I don't really like the execution of it.

It's kind of annoying that the candle goes out when you move. That concept could work, but it can be quite frustation when you have to stop every three seconds to get from point A to point B. (especially since the player is really slow) The fact that most of the game consists out of walking empty spaces doesn't really help. I died more often because of walking a little too long rather than the monsters killing me.

There isn't much else to talk about. I think you did a good job with the graphics and I definitely like some details like the staring eyes.

----
I didn't read the comments above me at first, so I could give you a non-biased comment myself. Lighten areas could be a nice addition, although I'd combine it with the idea of GertJohnny. You could add slow walking and a running system. However, make sure that there is a nice balance between the two of them, so the pacing doesn't get out of balance.

Congratulations on finishing your compo entry!

Dig Back Home by Chaoclypse 2014-04-29T11:59:00

This is really addictive! Finished it with:

Claws level: 89
Money level: 21
Time level: 7

Good job! :D

Wriggle Worm by gikdew 2014-04-29T11:21:00

Cool little game! I love the graphics and the simplistic gameplay. Good job. :)

Beneath the Trolls by Dreauw 2014-04-29T11:16:00

Very nice! I really enjoyed it. The graphics are great and the length of the game is really nicely done.

Temple of Ra by Split82 2014-04-28T20:08:00

Wow, this is really good! The graphics are amazing and the game concept is really fun. Good job!

The God Beneath by iSamurai 2014-04-28T13:57:00

Nice game! I like the graphics. Too bad there isn't any sound, since it could really enhances the experience. (Or was the sound not working for me?)

I like the fact that you also made a bossfight in your entry. It's also nice that you made a little story behind it.

I'd also like to see a reload function. I had to start all over again when I pressed 'R' during the bossfight. It was soon after that I realised I had restarted the game instead of reloading my gun. :P

Either way, you did a good job! :)

Up n Down by syawqy 2014-04-28T13:44:00

Haha, it was awesome to break through everything! Too bad there is no challlenge, but I had fun with it. :)

Reflection by thebmxeur 2014-04-28T13:38:00

Nice game! In the beginning, I found it a little bit difficult to get the hang of the controls, but this improved as I played the game. I like the concept and I think it's a quite original one! Good job.

Deep Blue Home by Jools64 2014-04-28T12:52:00

I really love this game! The graphics are really nice and the music was very relaxing. The length of the game was pretty impressive. Definitely one of my favourite entries so far. ;)

LD28 — You Only Get One (9)

You Only Get One Chance to Impress your Girlfriend with a Game You Made by 2HitAdam 2013-12-28T10:37:00

Haha, it's a funny little game! It's a bit easy since you just wait for the admiral to turn, but I think the concept is pretty fun. Good job :)

Hammer Control by pkenney 2013-12-23T16:54:00

This is a really fun game to play! I love that the hammer bounces off the wall, because you can make multiple kills at once that way. :) The graphics are really simplistic and I like it a lot!

The controls feels a bit clunky in the beginning, but the player gets used to it. However, I would love the ability to stand still.

And last but not least, I miss a little juiciness. By example, you can shake the screen when you're hitting someone, or you can add (exaggerated) particles to the screen. This will hugely improve the experience of playing the game! I'd recommend you to watch this video, which talks a bit about juiciness in a game: http://goo.gl/N7RfKV

Apocalypse One by jinxly 2013-12-23T16:37:00

The controls can be kind of clunky, but it is a fun game to play! I like the graphics and the (hard) difficulty! Good job!

Unibrow by ViliX64 2013-12-23T16:28:00

The switching between 3D/2D was interesting and fun. I didn't know how to shoot (perhaps I just missed that part of the tutorial?) Sometimes the texts are hard to read.

Overall a fun game!

Boomerang by hypothetical 2013-12-16T21:26:00

I agree with Nighley, it's a fun concept! The pathfinding could use some work and the boomerang deals damage when it's laying on the ground.

Good work!

One Pilot by alexis.pautrot 2013-12-16T19:29:00

Hey Alexis. First of all, I love the graphics! It's just a very colourful game and I personally love pixelart. :) The game sure is challenging, so that's good too.

Too bad there isn't any sound. Next time, I'd recommend to download a sound generator program like SFXR. They're very easy to use, and it adds so much to your game. :) As of the music, there are also simple music generators. I used abundant-music in LD28, which turned out to be a pretty good choice.

It's kind of strange that you can fly outside the screen, since you're always safe there.

And last but not least, I miss a little juiciness. By example, you can shake the screen when you're hitting someone, or you can add (exaggerated) particles to the screen. This will hugely improve the experience of playing the game! I'd recommend you to watch this video, which talks a bit about juiciness in a game: http://goo.gl/N7RfKV

Anyway, it's a nice game, especially since it's your first Unity game! Keep up the good work :)

The One Familiar by ErikU 2013-12-16T18:23:00

It's pretty difficulty, especially after the fifth stage. It's a fun game nevertheless! :)

Last Minute Christmas Chopping by Notch 2013-12-16T09:45:00

Nice game

Showdown by madlee 2013-12-16T09:38:00

Nice game. Too bad the screen is so blurry, because the pixelart in your screenshot looks awesome. Great use of the theme though!

LD27 — 10 Seconds (1)

Lunar Rush by timmahh 2013-08-30T13:41:00

Nice little game! It's a bit basic, but I think it's amazing that you made this in one day. (especially since you're new to Unity) You made great use of the theme!

Too bad there is no music in this game. It would've been nice if the tempo of the music would go faster each round. Some powerups and more variation in the enemies would be cool too.

A simple thing like a rounds-counter can be great, because it will allow people to easily compete with each other.

Anyway, keep up the good work! :)

LD26 — Minimalism (50)

Super Minimalistic by spilth 2013-05-20T08:38:00

The jumping feels a bit odd. Fun game nonetheless!

"" by davidpeter 2013-05-16T16:07:00

Too bad you have to restart the webpage when you're game over. Was kinda hard. I did like the art style though!

Nice job

LD26 by Threef 2013-05-16T16:04:00

The beeps can drive you a bit nuts, but it's overall a fun game. The white screen was the ending? You could have been more clear on that. ;)

Nice job

Space Ball 3D by juaxix 2013-05-14T20:19:00

Nice game. Multiplayer looked nice. :)

MEGAMINIMAL by InfuriatedCoder 2013-05-08T16:20:00

Nice game. Was a a bit hard, but the graphics are very clean. The game is also very minimalistic. :) Good job.

QbQbQb by rezoner 2013-05-03T11:42:00

Awesome game! It looks great and the music/sound effects are amazing. Great job!

People by BenW 2013-05-03T11:30:00

Very nice game! I love the concept. The graphics are nice and simple, and the audio is fantastic. One of my favourite entries so far! ;)

Good job.

Digital H by winesays 2013-05-03T11:20:00

I'm not really sure what the meaning is, but I liked the mysterious ambience. I wonder if there's an ending..

Life & Minimalism by WiseGAMER 2013-05-03T10:48:00

It's really a different approach to the theme. I quite liked it! Nice concept. :)

Good job!

Damn invaders by dvdking 2013-05-03T10:42:00

Really good game! I loved the fact that you can grow bigger and stronger. (and also more vulnerable!) Second boss was really hard, but I'll try again soon! Good job! :)

16 by Xaychru04 2013-05-03T10:28:00

Great concept! It's so simple, but very fun to play. Perhaps the magnets make the game a bit too easy, altough you still need to watch out for the red blocks! I loved the music.

Good job! :)

Black vs. White by lathomas64 2013-05-03T10:11:00

It's a bit too easy when you shoot constantly from the same position. Also, a score system would be nice. Good job with finishing your entry. ;)

Robo-Workers Attack by marcuiulian13 2013-05-03T10:02:00

It was fun to play! It was a bit hard though, so I couldn't pass Wave 7. :p Good job!

Bell Curve by Soundboy 2013-05-02T23:08:00

Congratulations with finishing your first Ludum Dare! It's gameplay wise kind of basic, but I like the fact that you get- or lose features. The ageing was a great part of the game!

Good job.

FLIP by howieV (binarygirl) 2013-05-02T22:58:00

Nice little game. It's kinda hard later on, but still is a fun game!

Simplification Quest by Adbook 2013-05-02T22:52:00

The gameplay itself wasn't really that interesting anymore after a few levels, but it was still a fun game. Such a shame there isn't any sound! (Although I saw sound files in ZIP file?)

Good job.

minobi by Pixelboy_85 2013-05-02T20:33:00

Fun little platoformer! I like the really simple graphics and the sound effects. It was a nice challenge to reach the end! Good job. :)

Cpt. Sqrjaw by vapgames 2013-05-02T20:17:00

Nice game! I found the keyboard controls a bit tricky though. It has great looks, the physics are nice and I liked to have to pile enemies! Good job!

Line Surfer by FrozenCow 2013-05-02T20:06:00

Nice game! I like the simple style. It's fun to drawn a line! Perhaps some powerups could have been nice. I also miss some music.

But it's a fun game overall! Nice job making this in only 48 hours. ^^

Canon by sparkleswirl 2013-05-02T19:57:00

Great game! I really suck at it though, so I didn't got far. :P Good job ;)

IAO by Rafael Sales 2013-05-02T19:47:00

I love the (simple) concept! Graphics are also very nice. It can be a bit hard, but that's part of the challenge!

Good job :)

Minimalism : Find the red Cube by Martin_Monosys 2013-05-02T19:34:00

To be absolutely honest: I didn't really enjoy playing it. It's an error & try game, but you could have made it more interesting by adding some kind of light element. (example: a flashlight you can use for a short time) The audio was alright and so were the graphics. ;)

Good job with finishing your LD entry!

My Mini Castle by TijmenTio 2013-05-02T19:23:00

Awesome game! I simply LOVE the graphics and the simplicity of the game! Perhaps some sort of repair feature would be nice. Also: the humor is really good!

One of my favourite entries yet! :)

Formless Reliquary by PsenFilip 2013-05-02T19:09:00

Very cool game! Too bad that some levels are impossible to finish. I think a scoring system would be nice too. (like: how much time/turns do you need to finish the level)

Good job! :)

8-Bit? 4-Bit! by Polar 2013-05-02T18:53:00

It's a very buggy game. Jumping doesn't always work and I always die in the second level. It does have a nice concept though. Good job with entering the competition. ;)

MINI STOP by CrownCity 2013-05-02T18:45:00

Nice idea, but it is lacking challenge after you setup some turrets. Perhaps more levels or more enemies could be a nice addition. Good job anyway! :)

Mustache Armies by TurboDindon 2013-05-02T17:44:00

Awesome game! Best entry I've played so far :D

Sunset Death by DrGeraud 2013-05-02T16:55:00

Nice game. I love the art style. It was fun to play against my friend. Perhaps you could add some music to make it more interesting. Also a sound effect when you hit each other would be nice. Good job!

Prisma by plash 2013-05-02T16:35:00

Great game! Interesting concept. Some times the difficulty was a big too high. (the boss room was really hard!) But we liked it overall! Good job :)

2 Player Breakout by LeafMeAlone 2013-05-02T16:10:00

Nice little game. Too bad there's no winning-system. You might want to make the movement a bit faster.

Fun game overall!

Dwalk by Joritan Cety 2013-05-02T16:05:00

Nice concept! Too bad it's getting a bit boring after a few levels. We love the graphics! Perhaps some music would be nice though!

Good job. :)

Rad vs Blae by GetFun 2013-05-01T21:33:00

Too bad there isn't any sound! The controls made it hard to aim too. But I quite enjoyed the game! Unfortunately I just had one opponent, but it was really fun! With more players it would be even more awesome!

Good job ^^

Polymorph by Crazi456 2013-05-01T21:22:00

Nice game! The controls can be a bit tricky though. I like the graphics and the idea of chaning shape!

Box's World by avidgamerNino 2013-05-01T21:16:00

This sure is an interesting concept! The looks and gameplay are fitting the theme nicely. I liked it, although I think it can be a bit too frustrating when you're lost.

Good job!

BASHLAND - Breakout Mario Mashup by McFunkypants 2013-05-01T20:18:00

Great game! Graphics are awesome and the gameplay is very good. Perhaps it's a bit too easy though.

Good job!

UltraPew by Hume 2013-05-01T18:12:00

Nice game! The movement controls are a bit hard, especially turning the spaceship. I think it's amazing that you accomplished to make such game in this short time! Good job. :)

You are the Minimalist by pighead10 2013-05-01T18:00:00

I took a while before I knew exactly what to do, but it's a great concept! It's fitting like.. perfectly in the theme! Good job pighead. ;)

Pulcino by Vincenzo 2013-05-01T17:45:00

Nice music and a cool little game. Too bad it's so short, but I can understand that. Good job! ;)

Mnmlst Mnk by G 2013-05-01T17:35:00

Nice and simple concept. Too bad there isn't any sound. Good job though!

minimalistherain by alvivar 2013-05-01T16:15:00

Nice game! I like the lightning effects, although I think they should appear more often. (for the impatient players. :p)

Mini-gun by pragma 2013-05-01T16:11:00

I like the simple style. It's a fun game to play! Good job. :)

There are some bugs with the shooting and perhaps adding power-ups would be a good idea to make the gameplay more interesting.

STL RNNR by Siewart 2013-05-01T16:05:00

I love parkour in games! Gameplay and graphics are great! :) Good job.

Ascenion by kreischweide 2013-05-01T15:57:00

I like the concept, although I´m not sure how to find out which choice is right. It´s just a gamble, right?

Congrats with finishing your first LD. ;)

Steam-Cube by Monoquartz 2013-05-01T12:31:00

Although I'm not a big fan of Scratch, I think this is a great little platformer with nice simple graphics. I like hard platformers, so this is definitely something I'd play.

There are some things that can be improved in my opinion. I think the player slides too much when moving: it's kind of annoying. I also don't like the collision with spikes, it seems a bit unfair.

Anyway: good job with the entry! :)

Mini Space Adventure by jacintosan 2013-05-01T12:20:00

This isn't really fun to play. That's because there's no goal and no challenge. But it is minimalistic, the graphics are alright and the controls are feeling nice.

I hope you'll expand the game later on. I'll definitely give it a try then! ;)

The Vale by Tyro 2013-05-01T10:57:00

Nice game! I love the graphics. I do find it hard to shoot a projectile right, but that's just part of the challenge! Very good job Tyro! ;)

Shoot (AAA_FPS_GOTY) by quill18 2013-05-01T09:41:00

Too bad there was no one online in the multiplayer, so I had to fight against bots. But it was fun anyway! I loved the references to annoyed gamers. :p

Good job!

Subtract by SlamBlasta 2013-05-01T09:31:00

Nice concept! A rectangle size limit, as suggested, would be a good addition.

@all above: You can cover the whole screen, but you'll get a negative score.

MiniCave by aare 2013-05-01T09:24:00

It has nice and simple graphics and the concept is good. I do find the controls kind of hard and the replay value isn't that high for me.

Anyway: good job ;)

Fragments of Him by Aceria 2013-04-30T20:05:00

Great work! I like the story and the graphics. I encountered the same bug as theRestlessTaxidermists: I wasn't able to move my head vertically in the beginning. I solved it by hitting escape. (options menu)

Good job! :)
