LD59 — Signal (6)

Herdware Signal by Seravlac 2026-04-22T01:56:11Z ♥ 1

GJ with this one. Was hilarious. I got my car stuck on top of tree trunks and I laughed hard when I saw how the game over unfolds.

Commotion Conductor by Auto 2026-04-22T01:15:00Z ♥ 2

Very clean. And way too much for my brain to take

Baywatcher by gurkenlabs 2026-04-21T10:04:36Z ♥ 3

Nice job with this one, I laughed. Thematics were well executed!

Tunnel Vision by Risminator 2026-04-21T08:36:27Z ♥ 1

Cute little pacman like! Good atmosphere.

Signalien by jnur 2026-04-21T08:30:04Z ♥ 2

Good job! I had fun playing this one with my 5 years old. He laughed hard at the explosions

Mixed Signals (using DOD) by GideonGriebenow 2026-04-21T07:49:18Z ♥ 1

This is super interesting conceptually, and practically, it explores the limits of cognition. It becomes pretty hellish once you need to manage more entities. Felt a little like juggling or something. Nice job

LD52 — Harvest (5)

Harvester by Sublustris 2023-01-24T13:37:24Z ♥ 1

Wow that's a smart concept. I wish that the speed was capped / balanced because its quite unplayable towards the end. Super interesting though!

Damn Rats - LD52 by mr_lazy 2023-01-12T02:22:48Z ♥ 2

Good job !🐭 💀 I think that a really simple feature you could add is some kinda super attack with a big cooldown that clears the entire screen!

Scratch Harvest by Skoufakis 2023-01-10T14:03:20Z ♥ 1

Hey! I love that game. Very pure and cute too. The driving could definitely be a bit more casual ;). With a few things here and there this could absolutely be a full commercial game!!

Souls Harvesting by Georgii 2023-01-10T07:36:09Z ♥ 0

Hey there ! There's no link :o

Gogo Rabbit's Trap by JoshuaRabbit 2023-01-09T07:05:16Z ♥ 1

Hey there- Great job. This is really original. May I ask what inspired you for the card based format - or anything else?

LD48 — Deeper and deeper (10)

You Know The Drill by Maksime 2021-04-29T14:00:41Z ♥ 2

Hey guys. Despite being not standing out on originality or artstyle imo, it was my most addictive experience so far, well thought and well executed. Very nice game loop. +1 for dynamic music with depth.

The Cenote by Pawciu 2021-04-29T02:49:54Z ♥ 1

+1 for the John Carpenter ish track ;).

Crashdown by iellswo 2021-04-28T04:35:16Z ♥ 2

Its cool to be able to see lower floors Good job!

Spectregram by blob 2021-04-28T04:26:21Z ♥ 0

Good concept and nice polish. I guess the magic was gone a bit when I realized that the reward was the same for a distant, meh shot and an up close shot of a crab. Nice atmosphere, good job!

Goblin's Cave by Heine Hohenhart 2021-04-28T04:14:01Z ♥ 2

Nice atmosphere/tension! I guess I didn't understand I could hide at first. Good job.

Magmatic Descent by Vanea 2021-04-27T11:41:33Z ♥ 1

Simple concept with good potential! I'm pretty sure it'd be quality of life improvement to just automatically dig whatever breakable block you walk into.

Explovation by sadsmile 2021-04-27T07:51:20Z ♥ 3

Unforgiving, but solid bomberman roguelite!

Into the Deep by Adam K 2021-04-27T07:15:39Z ♥ 1

Simplistic and solid design. Love the fire rate boost. Sea weeds are a smart addition too. Narwhals will take over the world.

Linguini's Adventure by Washington Irving 2021-04-27T07:08:52Z ♥ 3

Nice. Gave me vibes of an old school Moctezuma 3D game.

Substrate Mining Co. by Steve Dragon 2021-04-27T07:00:15Z ♥ 2

I'm surprised to see how nicely it comes up together even though the art and gameplay are very simple. Nice work! PS : RIP, Simon.

LD46 — Keep it alive (6)

Lumina Mori by Gafled 2020-04-22T13:31:58Z ♥ 0

Cool atmosphere and graphics and sounds. There's something cool about that game's vibes. I wish it was not broken (I could never shoot or continue to the next level after the little text...)

Good job anyway!

Captured by OtisDev 2020-04-22T13:22:50Z ♥ 1

GJ for finishing your game ! BTW I stopped playing because it kept telling me that I was bad at it

Squatch Watch: Keeping The Myth Alive by picross 2020-04-22T04:40:55Z ♥ 3

So cute, loved it

alive by gamefive 2020-04-21T12:28:23Z ♥ 2

Hey there, no link?

Wake Up by JanMatyooStudio 2020-04-21T12:26:38Z ♥ 1

-Water should not collide with awaken friends -Score This game kinda looks like it was made for another theme, but good job for finishing it ~

Tutu Tussle by GabrielH 2020-04-21T12:19:32Z ♥ 1

This game is adorable. Its elegance and simplicity could definitely be iterated into something more polished. Pixel perfect and a combo system or a few additional moves and enemies and it could turn into a real game.

LD45 — Start with nothing (3)

Red Metal Gatherer by Yohsk13 2019-10-10T05:38:11Z ♥ 1

Oh, man... there's something I really liked about that game. Is it the weird graphics ? The purity of the concept ? These salad fingers vibes ? Dunno, but nice job. It's better than most of games for sure.

TailWhip by JengaMang 2019-10-10T05:13:18Z ♥ 1

Good job for finishing the game nice and clean. I could not tell ammo were the little blue dots at first, I thought these were just stars. But it felt like classic fun.

Words With Foes: Quest for the Lexinomicon by MattWoelk 2019-10-10T05:03:25Z ♥ 3

That's a really good game. I played a lot of it. Very refined, well exploited idea.

LD43 — Sacrifices must be made (11)

The Orion Trail by Archimagus 2018-12-09T07:07:14Z ♥ 3

A very good entry, definitely one of my favorites. I very much appreciated the tension by a music that seemed dynamic? Great work. I ran out of fuel and lost right before arriving. I wish there was some sort of last chance mechanic there. Good job.

Hypnotized Jumpers by D-Studios 2018-12-09T06:48:25Z ♥ 1

You could do something with that game, but the experience was spoiled by the physics (being stuck on a ledge and not being able to reach it because of poor hitboxes/controls.).Very trippy anyway ! Good job.

Sector 256 by ping78 2018-12-09T06:44:40Z ♥ 0

Not sure what that game was, but it was interesting to just see those threatening red dots hunting my blue ones.

The Roasted Charge by Iferit 2018-12-09T06:37:03Z ♥ 0

The game does not start ! Its crashing with a windows message...

Oregon Tail by DoctorMozart 2018-12-09T06:35:04Z ♥ 1

Very neat little game. I enjoyed it. Good job for finishing the adventure and balancing!

Cultist of sacrifices by falak 2018-12-08T08:21:54Z ♥ 1

I could not beat it, but it was cool. Very very trippy.

Detritus Walks by Chao 2018-12-08T08:16:59Z ♥ 2

Cute, good ideas there. With more work on feedback and controls it could become something. Good job!

Planet 43 by MyFriendTames 2018-12-08T08:11:19Z ♥ 1

A neat little concept, with more mechanics, art, balance and feedback this could totally be a thing. It made me think that its interesting how much we have the reflex to kill whatever's moving and I had to restart a few times to focus on not doing so. Also the thunder should definitely be constant on mouse button down and not just appearing on click, that's a bit toxic considering the amount of times you use it. Nice job!

Lastcrifices by Cerebral Bore 2018-12-08T08:04:45Z ♥ 0

Very cool music

Save & sacrifice by deepnight 2018-12-04T02:51:07Z ♥ 1

Nice work. Solid mechanics, fits the theme. Too bad there is no sounds in there :). I'd like to be able to kill flying demons with the exploding ones, but that's just for fun, it might no be mechanically valuable. Definitely a quality game overall

The M.O.N.K. by arkiruthis 2018-12-03T14:19:57Z ♥ 1

I loved this game. I could not beat it, but it was fun. There's something very serious and old and scary that I like about the mood of it. Nice work

LD42 — Running out of space (23)

Words Dancer by Ango 2018-08-16T05:32:04Z ♥ 1

Interesting and innovative idea, good job!

Castle Z by Erick Alves 2018-08-15T06:24:26Z ♥ 0

Hello, nice job, but there is a problem : I noticed that if I spam jump, I can avoid blocks (even in corridors where I should not be able to?)

Echo by ManBeardGames 2018-08-15T06:18:54Z ♥ 1

Hello! Solid concept I think. If you want to polish it : -Make the controls better (attacking could slow down, not stop ?) (the sword attack up and down directions should be as cool as the sides one) -Go for a less eccentric music :) -Make a nicer sound design in general / stronger feedbacks -Running could be way faster, but cost energy.

Good job finishing the game !

Spaced Out by Roidz 2018-08-15T02:51:39Z ♥ 1

Very solid concept. I would recommend a minimum speed requirement to die by colliding map's borders, but that's a matter of taste. Otherwise, the game over is too long, but that's all I could say. Big quality here !

Speed Hoarder by CrazyMinnowStudio 2018-08-15T02:45:54Z ♥ 0

Hello! I think that in the current state of the game, the controls are not adapted, but it was interesting anyway. I liked that it felt weirdly realistic with the smartphone and stuff. Good job!

Spaceman Kevin by Chupachu 2018-08-15T01:51:07Z ♥ 1

Hello, This is a good and ambitious entry! Nice exploration feeling. I would probably add one more mechanic such as oxygen collection, hazard, or something. Good work.

Abernathium by Matthew Traylor 2018-08-15T01:39:57Z ♥ 0

I wish you could have finished it in time to see where you were going! Good job submitting anyway.

Mushroom Madness by hatscat 2018-08-14T09:24:51Z ♥ 0

ohh that camera needs a soft rotation buddy good job finishing the game!

Deck Adventure by Le Slo 2018-08-14T09:20:57Z ♥ 1

Wow, one of my favorites so far. Very impressive idea you came up with. I would really like to hear about the process!

Pack-It Down! by Dani 2018-08-14T09:12:56Z ♥ 3

I'm not sure of what you tried to accomplish here, but I'm sure it could be pushed further by first figuring out better controls. Good job !

Wackages by bram_ve 2018-08-14T09:10:28Z ♥ 1

I feel like you had something in mind that you did not have time to develop much. I'm sure there is something to do with these gameplay elements and objectives ! Good job finishing the game

Save the Tomatoes! by fractalsunrise 2018-08-14T07:56:30Z ♥ 2

Very efficient game, polished, smart. One of the most solid I played so far!

Rush Hour by pillowPillow 2018-08-14T07:39:34Z ♥ 1

Hello! Cute, even though non easy to control. I like the atmosphere. Good job finishing the game.

Triple Tribble Trouble by freso 2018-08-14T07:34:05Z ♥ 3

Hello ! Even though not really related to the theme, it is definitely mechanically working. I wish you could have implemented an additional fun mechanic (theme related or not). I love the robot voice, very cute. Good job finishing it.

Day15: Evacuation by KptEmre 2018-08-14T07:24:19Z ♥ 1

Hi ! The human infected mechanic and the train crushing people is a good start, but it lacks overall polish and I wish I could move humans freely to do micro management. Good job finishing the game, keep pushing :):)

Mr. Flame Just Wants A Hug by mercerbox 2018-08-14T06:39:29Z ♥ 1

What is wrong with you. Good, weird game, good job finishing it :) Now to polish the controls and take care of that chunky FPS !

Flesh Packer by nervous-composers 2018-08-14T06:33:57Z ♥ 1

I didn't understand how to win, I could not find the proper interactions. Nice and weird intro/atmosphere though. Good work for finishing the game.

Feed cats by Noini 2018-08-14T06:28:36Z ♥ 0

POOOP DETECTED CLEAN POOP POOP CLEANED

I wish the UI elements you can click on were buttons. good job finishing the game

Blast Off! by heidelbert 2018-08-14T06:20:20Z ♥ 1

Good work finishing the game ! It needs a nice sound design, and I would suggest a manual mouse based collecting mechanic or something. You like fire don't you :). ASSIMILATION!!!

NanoMaze by drnoir 2018-08-14T06:14:19Z ♥ 1

Good job finishing the game ! I would suggest you to put an engine sound effect or something on enemies to hear them roam around. Also light the reactor only when moving. And one more mechanic like a gun or a dash or something would be welcome !

ground_0 by Jamison 2018-08-14T06:08:07Z ♥ 2

Excellent work Very efficient mechanic and lovely, crunchy dirt mechanic

Space Evader by SantaClausNL 2018-08-14T05:50:37Z ♥ 2

Hi ! Interesting game, I feel like it would almost work text based as well. The system you have already allows further content and mechanics to be implemented. A tension exists ! I like the heart beat and bip. Just needs more feedback when object are found, etc. Good work !

The Maze by nik2434 2018-08-14T05:45:27Z ♥ 0

Hello buddy, 404!

LD39 — Running out of Power (23)

Running Out of Power Points by lady-beardo 2017-08-19T05:54:26Z ♥ 0

Pretty absurd for sure... I like this kind of work. If it becomes bigger, their certainly are new ways to link the powerpoint's subjects to be created!

The Last E8 by SethR 2017-08-05T06:57:58Z ♥ 0

Hi Seth ! I love your game. I think the controls are great, even if I couldnt pass the second level. The depleting rate is maybe a bit hardcore. It reminded me of worms for some reason. Very nice game, and also the music is cute, did you do it? Good job.

Powerton by trineroks 2017-08-05T06:49:40Z ♥ 0

I could not really understand how this game worked... it maybe lacks actions feedback and clarity, but it looks like you worked hard anyway, so good job for finishing it!

From Kingdom to Freedom by Studio RTV 2017-08-05T06:45:19Z ♥ 1

Pretty cute. Quite hard I have to say, but nice entry!

Battery Bot by dooleus 2017-08-05T04:40:58Z ♥ 0

Hello! Good entry! I like the simple/efficient concept. The art and sounds are cute. I am curious to known why you decided to use the mouse to control the player. My score was 2000 and something. Nice job!

oop by Too 2017-08-03T11:36:01Z ♥ 1

Hello! Good job. Whatever for the theme ;), I guess you might want to work on the punching mechanic and feedback here, like making it faster and more impactful ? Also I had a weird bug where a sort of sprite sheet kept appearing on the screen. The little dudes are cute btw :)

Bot Beater by SMA 2017-08-03T11:31:50Z ♥ 1

Suprised of how the punches feedback feels good here! The game is really hard though, you should probably lower the depleting rate, or make the enemy attacks cost battery rather than one shot. Good job! Also the BGM bass was cool.

Battery Box by mrnannings 2017-08-03T11:22:42Z ♥ 0

Nice! The controls feel pretty good. Maybe you could make it a bit easier, and make the battery deplete a bit faster when the character moves ? Dunno, it might give a bit of spice. Good job!

Limited Spaceship by aneudissalcedo 2017-08-03T11:17:32Z ♥ 0

Classic, but it works well. The music was really motivating :o

Power Synergy by Turkey 2017-08-02T06:28:51Z ♥ 0

Wow, this game is deeper than it looks like. I think is quite rare to see this kind of concepts in LD, I like it very much. My only design advices would be : 1. Less robots and/or less batteries, because I think too much player time is spent into simply getting the batteries and it is repetitive 2. Some traps/stronger batteries to give tactical priorities :) 3. A robot count for each team

Very good job. I actually spent quite some time on this one.

Last Train Out by amarcu 2017-08-02T06:19:33Z ♥ 3

Interesting. Pretty polished. I wonder why the power keeps lowering though :o. Cute design too.

Get the Mech to the Escape Pod! by LordMichaelmort 2017-08-02T06:15:28Z ♥ 2

Hello, sorry I get a 404 when I try to reach your link! You should fix it :)

Hamster Air Race by jamesfdickinson 2017-08-02T06:14:12Z ♥ 0

Interesting. Is it normal that energy comes back even if you click something else than the mouse ? Good job!

Portals and Boxes by Luis Giron 2017-08-02T06:10:28Z ♥ 0

Interesting, the level design looks challenging, I could not pass the second level :(. I probably did not understand something ? Good job anyway!

Power Of A Kinght (POAK) by GOOY 2017-08-01T13:47:43Z ♥ 0

A few bugs showed up. I got out of power at night but when day came I stayed in red mode. Also the monsters and the coins were colliding, so the monster could not even finish me.

Good job anyway. The knight is really cute :)

A Developer's Nightmare by testudor 2017-08-01T13:40:55Z ♥ 0

This pretty cute. I like the music a lot! But the controls and the platform difficulty are rough.

Cat Herder - THE CATPOCALYPSE by Meanderthal 2017-08-01T13:25:15Z ♥ 1

Man, this game was extremely scary ahah. I love the cats voices you recorded. Especially the one sound that sounds like an angry cat.

Bad Guns by DrDolan 2017-08-01T11:50:21Z ♥ 1

Funny, I was like meeeh and then I met the first psychedelic pink monster and felt like it was super scary suddenly

Rats will kiss the gunner's daughter by Mr.Houdini 2017-08-01T11:42:42Z ♥ 2

I liked this game. I think I was quite eager to find the bad guy... even if I failed.

Locomatomatic by SecretC 2017-08-01T11:33:31Z ♥ 2

It is so cute... ahah I love the sound of passengers talking. Didn't really understand how to properly balance the train's speed, but it was funny. Good job.

Out of the Shadows by Baconinvader 2017-08-01T11:27:01Z ♥ 0

The game won't launch here... just suck on a cmd screen.

Discharge by SurprisinglyShockedCat 2017-08-01T00:14:04Z ♥ 1

I had blinkings too but it stopped when I did alt+tab twice. Good game anyway, good job! I like the controls, and it is overall quite a cute design :)

Encounters by Valphera 2017-07-31T10:56:57Z ♥ 1

I got the date with her! Very cute game. Controls are a bit weird but it was funny.
