LD48 — Deeper and deeper

Deep Descent by Predominant 2021-04-25T21:46:24Z

Cool game, sounds fit in quite nice, but i got stuck right at the start flying into a hole i could not escape from. An "Escape" button would be great :)

Deep Sea Whale Mechanic by Jiri_One 2021-04-26T09:32:56Z

Well made game, feels good to play, idea is´nt that inovative but u did a good job. I love the graphic and it realy feels like a game i would play again in the future!

Dino Digger by dankar 2021-04-26T21:18:55Z

Funny little game, quite enough content for a few minutes, well mad it felt really smooth. Overall a solid entry.

Treehouse Party by stuffedgravy 2021-04-26T20:45:15Z

So cute art, the first half just feels like the gentle game a father made for his son during this gamejam. And then there is the second half,... I realy liked the turn of things, and the voices - made me feel a little bit like back in the Animal Crossing days

:star: ___ :star:

Super Swabber by 5you 2021-04-26T09:31:19Z

I dont know what "in the last few hours…" means to you, but i REALY liked the game, it was inovative, up to date with corona, gameplay felt nice, it was challenging but not too much, great for a compo game - to be real i gues its the best i played so far.

Poly Typo by pjnovas 2021-04-26T10:22:19Z

Nice type game, i got down to 42 words with 222 points, i like the idea and i realy love games like this because it trains you to write fast. Overall a littlebit to less input i´d say, maybe if u ever think about making it bigger try to add more around the "tunnel". Still i realy liked your game, good work mate!

Crawl Deeper by Linus Lindberg 2021-04-26T18:21:10Z

The mood was AMAZING, but other than that... Even after ~15 Minutes on "W", i realy wanted that ending... other than that my flash light broke half way throu nothing happend.

Tell me is there anything? q.q

Erasmus Singh: The DEEPHUNTER by SimoGecko 2021-04-26T20:29:37Z

Itch.io link´s to 404 - is your page public? Graphic looks great, please tell me if u update the link!

Deep Voice by mdotedot 2021-04-26T11:41:26Z

The concept of sound for movement is great, i didn´t get tooo far, but thats because i´m bad not the game. I also realy loved your art, i cant say what it is about it but it just feels great, even tho if u look closely its 'not that good' seeing it moveing while playing the game it felt amazing! But i gues my roommates didn´t liked the game because i woke them xD

The Bottom Dweller by alphapolygon 2021-04-26T20:05:31Z

I like it quite a lot. It feels totaly like a typical mobile game, something for the few minutes u have to waste waiting for something, great - i´m sure i´ll keep it quite a will on-off active :smiley:

Lowestop by Popolon 2021-04-26T08:12:40Z

I like the idea, and especialy the movement of the charakter, but i´m missing something to do and some tutorial on how to move/start the game, for some reason i could not start it with wasd, space or enter.

Asteroid Disaster by XCVZXC 2021-04-26T10:14:08Z

Great game, graphics look amazing, gameplay feels smooth, and it makes a lot of fun, i can see me play this game for hours! First i was kinda lost because without my boost i wouldn´t make it no where, but it all just works together to make the game that littlebit hard so u have a challenge to beat it. Great.

Adventurer of the deep by ROBOWARRIOR1982 2021-04-26T09:40:25Z

Realy good game, i could see me play this a lot, it´s simple but realy good made, it just feels good to play, auto fire on enemys, collect trash and crystals, there is something for everyone.

Deep into the mine by BubakGames 2021-04-26T09:11:38Z

I REALY like the idea with the Volumebar - genius! But overall its a basic cave game, not bad but also not that inovative.

Got down to 198m, anyone beat me? ;P

Chocolate Dip Cookie by MarcoMing 2021-04-26T19:31:35Z

I realy loved the artstyle and the sound! I dont know if its made for a spezific size but the load bars were a littlebit off for me, and therefore it was hard to get into the mechanics. As soon as i had it i liked it a lot, u gave me funny 5 Minutes :smile:

Chocolate Dip Cookie by MarcoMing 2021-04-26T20:08:48Z

@marcoming great thanks, will be one of the games i keep, it realy gives a nice mood. :thumbsup:

DO NOT INSERT INSIDE THE EAR CANAL!!! by cheesepencil 2021-04-26T17:18:50Z

Funny little reflex testing game. How the f*** do u get an idea like that xD

Trposhi by mira 2021-04-26T19:43:44Z

Your sounds were just perfect for the mood of the game, loved it! The start took me a littlebit to long, maybe you should´ve made it a bit cheaper even tho i get why you did it :wink: Overall i feel like this is a solid entry, well done!

DwarfSweeper by Tim Sims 2021-04-26T20:49:28Z

You should update your links here aswell, if i hadn´t read the comment i would have just skiped this amazing game because its not shown that you have a windows version.

The game is exactly what you expect and more! It gives minesweeper a totally new touch and makes a game forgotten for so long come back to life stronger than ever. Great work, one of the best games i played so far! :fireworks:

What do cats dream of ? by Duck Reaction 2021-04-26T20:22:40Z

Sounds were on point, game play felt good and it gets hard pretty fast. A funny little game for a few delightful minutes. :slight_smile:

Tunnel Rats by GeneralSturgeon 2021-04-26T17:39:38Z

Amazing game, it got story, great sounds, humor, its all u can wish for, for a game made in 48 hours.

Wilford - Deep Underground by BattleCat 2021-04-26T21:29:38Z

I really love the special touch you gave those gems falling on the floor, that felt really good! Overall i think u did quite a good job and i would love to see you spent more time post ludum dare to extend on this!

Deep Breaths by Patsui 2021-04-26T21:41:34Z

Cool game overall, i loved how you totally got spinned after a shot hit. I found the controls a bit hard to get in to but its ok as soon as you are in. Well done.

Deep Breaths by Patsui 2021-04-26T21:47:41Z

So apparently i broke this beautiful game

meditation game broken.PNG

I´m really sorry x) It was a pretty funny take on a racer game, nice done!

Pink Space by mangonein 2021-04-25T21:57:09Z

I cant start the game, i just get a black screen, try to fix this before the rating starts ;D

Pink Space by mangonein 2021-04-26T08:05:37Z

@mangonein yeah then that was the problem, i was using firefox x)

Toxicity Run by StefGrizzly 2021-04-26T21:14:01Z

Good game, i liked the music and art a lot. Also i think the idea with the minigame tubes was fun. There was one bug i entered the same tube multiple times and had to finish multiple minigames simultaneous.

Crazy Fishing by Johnathan Peres 2021-04-26T18:02:29Z

404 - please fix it, would like to see what u did :)

Raid' Simulator by alpacalypse 2021-04-27T18:59:48Z

I would love to see you keep developing this, looks like u got a solid start. Maybe add some kind of tutorial or intro to understand the game a little bit better. Overall a good unfinished project with potential!

Sleep Deeper by nekowei 2021-04-26T20:10:41Z

404 for your itch.io - is it public?

Sleep Deeper by nekowei 2021-04-27T18:54:48Z

A lovely little game, gave a nice mood and i really liked your graphics. I just didn´t quite understand the pillow and the teddy - never the less i finished it and enjoyed it. Well done!

And thx for making it public :3

Moss Light by Zykra 2021-04-25T21:42:02Z

Sweet little tower defense. I like the idea with the light flowers, but it needs a lot of tweaking for it to realy hook the player. For me i basically placed a few tower up front, focused on getting more light flowers and even tho i was at ~75 light/second and no new towers build since the start i got overrun after 500 kills - no chance to survive. Also i wasn´t quite sure what those insects were after, do they aim my towers?

Infinite Slime by cocoplum 2021-04-26T19:57:44Z

I LOVED the movie, but unfortunately the game did not quite deliver. Some of the sprites felt off and there were a lot of bugs. The overall idea was great even tho not quite on topic, but i liked the few rounds i did.

Deep Space Janitor by kristof 2021-04-26T21:26:19Z

Lovely little 3D game, u got some basic´s within there and a great and funny story line - overall i really liked your entry for the compo a lot.

Deeper Fishing by Thoastbot 2021-04-26T20:16:17Z

@lucisaurus it looks like there can be problems with my audio function on Safari browser, i´d love to look for a work around but for now if u have it, try it with chrome - that should work even on mac :slight_smile:

CEPI.YU by PinkLatticeUwU 2021-04-26T17:14:41Z

I like the graphics, and i realy felt good while playing it :3 But to be fair i dont feel like its pretty inovative - its just well made for the time you got, overall u did a great job.

Roots game by BoClow 2021-04-26T09:16:30Z

Simple and good! Exactly what one would expect of a gamejam game, its simple, but very well made. I love the overview in the end, and i also love it that even if u "control" your roots, they still do a littlebit what they want, great.

Fish for Meaning by Steve Johnstone 2021-04-25T21:51:46Z

Fun little game, on the one side i realy like the "never ending map" idea, on the other hand it makes it realy hard in this 3D angle to control the boat over the border. I like the "fish for meaning" by getting bottels.

The Deeper The Deadlier by EPU 2021-04-26T20:37:48Z

Simple little shooter, sound was pretty good, there was a little bug if u stick to the side of walls u go up, was a kinda funny bug/feature :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

MinesDeeper by BigFantasyTree 2021-04-26T20:28:38Z

Did u implement the number mechanic or did it miss? Because i could not figure out what they mean, i think i see what you intended tho - to bad... In its current state its fine to play, still a little bit challenging, overall a few good minutes :slight_smile:

funny slug game by programming_sock 2021-04-26T21:34:51Z

A sweet little game for gameboy, i think with a littlebit more time this could´ve been a sweet game for back in the gameboy days :slight_smile:

Null_byte by XariusExcl 2021-04-26T17:53:37Z

Funny little shooter with a nice little touch on the theme. Overall nothing to new, but well made with your own little touch, good job.

Deep Resource by DevGa_me 2021-04-26T08:22:53Z

I like the feeling of the game, but the idea is not that innovativ - or its just not finished the way you wished it to be. Overall a fine game for the compo to play.

Delve Deep by ThetaNord 2021-04-26T09:22:31Z

I like the idea, even tho its not that inovative, but your game feels soo slow, because u move everything all the time. Also as soon as i enter the next floor i got ambushed by 4 orcs, managed to fight my way throu and then got instant killed by who knows what, maybe check there again, possibly this happend because i overstayed in the first floor and the enemys got time to swarm the stairs?

LD50 — Delay the inevitable

Last Robot Survivor Needs Energy by Wonz 2022-04-04T12:58:58Z

I like the game, but either i always chose the wrong upgrades or you need to balance the game a little. I got to kill ~5 enemies, after that there were so many of them that my shots basically never got thru their shots. And at minute 3:08 i randomly died at ~30% hp - either a lot of invisible shots hit me or there is a hidden timer x)

Pay Up! by kbf123 2022-04-04T11:58:59Z

Dont know if this is intended but i just earned 0$ pushing pencils. Apart from that a really addictive little game, i like it! I even got the 10k from Roulette - feeling lucky now :D

Farming until bankruptcy by atomicptr 2022-04-04T13:27:23Z

Nice farming game, i missed a feedback on the payment, because in the end i died farming my max sized field because i just went all out on shopping and didn´t seem to make enough cash back fast enough. Also, the controls on keyboard are a bit hard to use if u want to "fast farm" x) i can see this being way more smooth on controller, or if u change the interact button to something like m.

Still a great entry, well done!

Tile Sparce by MusicBlox 2022-04-04T11:39:36Z

Simple game, worked for me to play a few rounds :) I can see how this game can have a ton of updates with all kind of special blocks. Consider making a small visual Tutorial here that would help a lot to get started ^^ But i mean, you got 3 blocks to consider, it was not that hard to understand which block does what.

Click to Continue by Daniel Foutz 2022-04-04T21:34:43Z

Amazing, wasted a lot of time to click continue but i had SO MUCH fun! Love it!

Battery Low by Milestone Games 2022-04-06T11:14:01Z

Wow, amazing game. Artwork was on point, music and sounds were great, gameplay was smooth, wasn´t to easy, wasn´t to hard, i really like this game!

Frosty Fixer by Dranoel 2022-04-04T20:43:37Z

I actually kinda like the game, only downside is that my cloud got stuck on the left in multiple runs which killed me :(

Cyber Skater by Syafire 2022-04-05T10:05:01Z

Well executed game, the feel of the shoots and the movement is really smooth. Didn´t really get what the grappling hook was good for, moving was way smoother and saver for me so that i never user it. Didn´t encounter any bugs, the music was nice, sounds were good to, overall great game!

The Dungeon Lord by Thoastbot 2022-04-04T12:40:07Z

So i looked into a memory leak/unplayable bug, thanks to @frib - fixed a little thing with my graphic draw function. I hope now its playable for everyone <3

The code zip for the release is unchanged, i added a link to the bugfix zip and updated it on the website so people can play the game without destroying their ram x)

The Dungeon Lord by Thoastbot 2022-04-05T09:29:23Z

To all of you who cant hear the music. I couldn´t find out what the problem here is, maybe it has something todo with browser configuration, not sure :<

Would opt-out of the music category now to prevent further confusion, but it is "required" - so either you hear music and rate it, or u dont and know that there should be - and just skip the voting for it. <3

The Dungeon Lord by Thoastbot 2022-04-06T19:38:31Z

@peter-ondus

Thanks for the great feedback, helped me a lot to finally understand the problem players have with my game. I added an extended tutorial to understand better how the game works.

I should have really said somewhere that this ain't no tower defense game, and that u have to build objects into the path, so heroes can interact with them.

I feel like the biggest thing i have to improve in for the next Ludum Dare, would be to make better tutorials (or decide on easier games, but i cant seem to find the joy in this, if i´m not challenged on the coding part)

The Final Day by Very Bad Bunny Studio 2022-04-04T13:13:57Z

Feels like one of those old school rpgs, i really enjoyed it! I love the graphics, and even tho i think this game could live with some mouse controls, its totally fine the way it is. Some work on balancing, but for the time on hand a great entry!

Losing Your Sheet by rickylee 2022-04-04T12:49:13Z

Scored 108.68 - simple game, but pretty innovative and really well made, i enjoyed my time with it! But this bucket mate,... either give it at least a fun useless interaction or remove it, i tried sooo long to get this bucket to do stuff X')

Tick Tock by Mandytoh 2022-04-04T11:26:39Z

Hey there, quite good looking graphics, but i think i dont understand your game, my man walked around a little bit until he stumbled into death, apart from that i was not able to get him to interact with objects other than mumbling a few words. Did i miss something?

Tap to Snooze by Jul._.li 2022-04-04T12:04:00Z

This game is way to awesome while still being so damn simple - well done! Perfectly themed, simple enough to understand what to do instantly, music fits, overall a great entry for the compo.

Bleed by Carbon6 2022-04-04T20:40:12Z

I felt like i couldn't die by those blood balls and it was kinda hard to hit them, other than that simple but good game :)

Fall Dude by Pinky Toast 2022-04-05T10:14:06Z

Wow, this game feels so good, cant explain. The achievements and cosmetics give a great touch and make you keep playing, the graphics were fitting and overall a simple but well made game!

There is a little graphic bug i saw, in the menu after a lost match some collectable items clip into the character on some frames. Nothing big, just wanted to mention :)

LD51 — Every 10 seconds

Midnight Ninja by shared 2022-10-03T14:11:43Z

Cool game, took me some time to notice there is double jump - even tho it stands in the description i read before :x got throu the first lvl with some sneaky wall jumping tricks x)

Couldn't quite finish all lvl, but enjoyed it a lot!

Space Lord X by CrociDB 2022-10-05T16:19:29Z

Love the art style - movement felt a bit to complicated tho. Took me a few moments to realize how i died the first few runs, but as soon as u get the game, it is a nice little game, especially for mobile!

Eleventh Second by Jeremy Ryan 2022-10-03T13:56:33Z

Amazing entry! Nice Audio and Graphics, particles used perfectly, simple but entertaining gameplay. By far the best game here i've seen so far.

Only little thing i have to complain about is the keyboard usage on a mouse based game, every reset felt a little bit bad because of that - is there any reason why you didn't just chose clicks as input instead of Enter and R ?

Defense Engineers by Jiri Hysek 2022-10-04T16:22:52Z

Cool tower Defense Game - i thought about making one, but couldn't come up with a good implementation of the Theme - i love the powerplant idea, fits great. I run into a few bugs, i build some batteries and the audio and graphic of my turrets bugged out, couldn't see a thing under all that pink laser light - but still got the lvl done so no real problem ^^

Beardadette and the Eternal Hiccup by Honest Dan 2022-10-06T15:14:07Z

Cute game, love the art and the audio, fits great. I love the hickup idea, its the perfect fit for the theme and u build a really cool game around that idea! Loved it!

Frogwatch by Gunnbju 2022-10-04T16:58:20Z

Wow, got pulled in by the graphics and they really make this project shine. Movement felt a little bit slow, i mean i try to save those cute little frogs, why don't i run to get rid of those witches :<

Lost 2 poor frogs to soop, but i'm proud of the frogs i saved :3

I REALLY loved the little cute add-ons some frogs had - made some of them WAY more important to save than others :p

It All Comes Crashing Down by Quinn_Patrick 2022-10-03T14:34:46Z

Wow, for some reason i really like this game a lot! I like the sabotages u implemented, makes this so much harder than it already is x.x I wonder what made u decide on 6 Minutes? I mean it fits, but my tower was at 40m at minute 5 before 2 bombs came in in the last minute so i wonder WHY q.q Didn't find any bugs which is always a big plus in Ludum Dare ^^

Enjoyed my time with your game and will consider to come back!

Don't CRAB my Food by Thiago Macedo 2022-10-03T14:20:41Z

Sweet little game, nothing too special but totally no crab ;P Enjoyed my time with your game ^^

Cute Little Spider by BukkakeTears 2022-10-05T16:16:04Z

Wow, great entry! Graphics fit nice, audio is sweet, game idea is amazing, it all works well together, no bugs - really good job!

Pac-Mouse Survival by Thoastbot 2022-10-16T10:42:08Z

@mossieur-patate

Wow thanks for this amazing feedback, i really enjoyed to read it! :3

1 & 2 & 3 - i guess i don't have to say that anymore but i'm no native english speaker and struggle with some words :x I'm happy as i am, i feel like people normally get what i want to say - still many thanks to point things out, always helps to improve!

4 - I do literally import not one library :3 I write one html file, fill it with the basic html and css needed, start my JS
