LD48 — Deeper and deeper

Descending by khofez 2021-05-03T18:21:29Z

Great looking game. I really love the mood of it. I think some kind of tutorial would be great. On my first run I made it half way through to the boss without even knowing how to attack :D

I got lost on my way down, too. Maybe the leveldesign could be improved a little bit.

Nuclear Arms 8: Navigate the Hate by Logicon211 2021-05-02T13:33:16Z

Nice game! Brought back a lot of duke nukem memories :D

Doctor Shrink by Flaterectomy 2021-05-03T17:19:22Z

Nice Graphics! Reminds me a lot of Binding of Isaac :D (Which is good) At some corners the tiles didnt quite match, but overall it looked really good!

I like the gameplay mechanics and feel a lot! Sometimes I didn't like the leveldesign, because it wasn't really challening, but more tidious to walk through :D

Sea Game by MattWoelk 2021-05-02T14:37:15Z

Nice Game! I like the shader and the general feel of it. In the end I was missing a single coin :/ Maybe the could be something to help you find the coins.

Descent into Madness by danvil 2021-05-02T13:43:46Z

Great game! I love the visuals and overall feel of the game!

I think some times it feels a bit unfair. I'd love to see more of whats coming next, event if it's mostly black. Got to level 33 and rushed into a couple of baloons and died xD

Fall Miner by MZA 2021-05-02T15:25:36Z

Good game. I really like the graphics. Sometimes the jump and mid air jump feel a bit unresponsive. Anyways a nice arcade or mobile game!

DeepSea by Chensu 2021-05-02T15:52:41Z

Good game! Reminds me of my own.. or my initial idea :D

I was really confused by the mouse camera rotation :/ And i have no idea how to dodge the missiles to harvest the better Resources. Anyway, keep up the work! :)

Bulldozer By The Sea by eldogg 2021-05-02T13:56:59Z

Nice humor and great visuals :3 Really like this game! Anyways at some point it just turned out to be about waiting. But keep up the good work, man!

Don't Splat The Bat! by RubixNoob13 2021-05-02T12:28:39Z

Nice game. I think with some balance adjustments this could be a nice mobile game.

I'm not quite sure what to use the echolocation for :/ But the overall game was nice and challenging!

Keep on working :)

Dreamcatcher by TheCommonThug 2021-05-02T16:01:05Z

Good idea. The different "game stages" felt nice, too. I find it hard to manage the energy. I think it would be less frustrating, if running out of energy would just bring you back to your camp instead of killin you :/

Dreamcatcher by TheCommonThug 2021-05-05T19:12:27Z

@thecommonthug Feel u. The balancing for games in general is so hard :D

Power Station Beta by Dock Frankenstein 2021-05-03T18:40:37Z

I'm not quite getting the mechanics :D I have no idea when things turn yellow xD

But overall I like the idea.

I think overall the gameplay feel could need some more work.

Keep it up, man!

Quick Scrap by Vimlark 2021-05-04T17:15:18Z

Nice game, was a lot of fun to play :) Really nice game feel!

Going Down in Fishstory by Jonas Tyroller 2021-05-03T17:50:55Z

Ohh man, i can't put to words how much I love your game.

The art is just fantastic. I was even sad that i can't explore more in this world :D

The gameplay feels really cool, too. As I realized i can dash forever I was just racing through the whole level. This as a multiplayer game would be fun too xD

The sound design and the voices are pretty well, too. Sometimes you notice that some sentences arent as fluid, but overall crazily good!

It's just nice to see, what a team of talented people can get done in such a short time!

Westest Showdown by Nachodlv 2021-05-02T15:20:02Z

Nice Game, really had fun playing it. I'm not quite sure how it implements the theme. And some hit feedback would be great, too. Anyways, good game!

Super Base Jumper by madbookstudios 2021-05-05T19:34:06Z

Found your Devlog :D

Really nice game :) Feels just good. Sometimes it's quiet challenging. I think the difficulty ramp could be a little bit more forgiving xD But maybe I'm just not good at flying..

At least I had a lot of fun! xD

Haphephobia by Gabriel Corbani 2021-05-02T15:03:04Z

I like the games idea and mood. Sadly the game didn't feel round. Keep on improving :)

Task Surgeon by Zyger 2021-05-04T18:23:30Z

Great game! The visuals are just so polished! Really love this!

Anyways I just wasnt able to do the kidney filling in time :/ I would have love a "Restart" Button, too. To go through the main menu over and over again was a bit tedious at times.. And the misarranged level selection threw me of the first time xD

Alltogether a great game, that could need some refinement. But nothing to crazy to complain about in a game jam!

How Low Can you Go by SaeedPrez 2021-05-03T18:57:13Z

Great game! I love the amtosphere. It just feels underwater :D

Anyways I gave up after 250m.. xD Some more enemies and different abilities and I would have rated it even higher!

The case of the door in the woods by jonah 2021-05-02T14:26:27Z

Great music, graphics and atmosphere! Really enjoyed the experience of playing this :)

MilCo. by MikoziQ 2021-05-02T13:02:33Z

Overall I like the game, the humor.. it was just fun to play! The game idea was cool, but I'm not quite sure where it was about "Deeper and deeper".

Anyways, keep the optic and the humor and improve on the rest :) Keep on the good work!

Into The Deeps! by WonderingPixel 2021-05-03T17:02:47Z

Nice idea and visuals!

I think the audio mixing could be a little bit better, because the "noise" was most of the times a lot louder than the music.

I love the transition and the transition sounds btw. :D

I'm not quite sure what I did wrong, but I didnt get a well done screen, neither I was able to leave the game via the Pause Menu :D

Mine The Beat by GamesBySaul 2021-05-03T19:05:42Z

Ohh, that's a great game! :D Really had a lot of fun playing this. Graphic is nice and the beat is motivating! The cusomization felt a bit "unnecessary"?

The one time I died was at the beginning of the level where my dwarf just didnt move :/

Anyways a really great game. One of the best I've played.

The circuit by AdamsMcCall 2021-05-02T13:37:11Z

Nice little game! Would love to play more puzzles :) But solid mechanics and good use of the theme.

Don't Pull It Out by Shin0nome 2021-05-02T15:40:17Z

Was fun to play! Nice idea. To the end it get a little repetitive, but overall nice game!

Dig It Out by Threaded Lama Digital 2021-05-02T14:16:01Z

Great looking game. I really love how frustrating it is.. xD

Deep Dream by Stone Studio 2021-05-02T14:44:27Z

Wow. What a feeling. What a mood. Love it. Found the puzzles pretty easy and most of the time the biggest problem was playing it "x" Time to see all the screens. Keep up the good work guys!

Deep Jam by MadR 2021-05-05T19:09:14Z

Nice game! I really like the graphics :)

I think, sometimes it would be great to see more on the left and right. Had realy problems to even get through the second level. :D

Divine Comedy by skoopidy 2021-05-02T15:35:32Z

Nice looking game. Sadly the lave killed me and doing the labyrinth over and over again wasnt a lot of fun :/ Anyways a solid fundation to improve on!

Dwarf Mine by Kmoor 2021-05-03T18:50:18Z

I like the game and the visuals a lot, but somehow the gameplay didnt feel that great. Sometimes enemies just felt really anoying and unbalanced :/ And the bats have killed especially my ears :D

LD48 - Just Breathe by Geniye 2021-05-02T15:55:55Z

Nice one :D My brain doesnt handle this well xD I think there could be some better indicators on when to breathe, but anyways a great game!

Deep Dive by Aifryz101 2021-05-02T13:23:07Z

Hey, Nice game! Found a couple of big chests and in the end killed myself with a torpedo bombing my way xD But it was really fun to play. As a mobile or arcade game I would really enjoy this.

Anyways, sometimes I had some graphical issues that looked like vsync problems?

Keep on the good work! :)

Fish for Meaning by Steve Johnstone 2021-05-06T15:47:27Z

Cool game. I like it a lot. The overall feel is quite nice. What got me the most problems was spawning in an enemy in the next level. That was somehow frustrating. I think another nice addition would be to "cut" the objects on the sides and have two halfs of the object on eacht side of the water. That could help to see where you'll end up after moving through.

Anyways, well done, keep up the good work!

Space Cave by Timo Gass 2021-04-26T17:23:20Z

@adamsmccall Thank you for your feedback! Playtesting my game I reallized myself, that I sometimes just avoid fights and keep rushing through the levels. Balancing in Game Jams somehow always turns out to be pain.. :'D

Space Cave by Timo Gass 2021-05-02T13:07:39Z

@danvill Thanks, yeah, I think sometimes they could behave a little better :/ Next time! :D

@eldogg Thanks a lot! That's a great Idead to add some variation. I'll try to remember it next time xD Really, thank you!

Space Cave by Timo Gass 2021-05-09T11:31:39Z

@thijs-tak Thank you. Yes, the balancing could be a bit better. Someday I'll make a perfectly balanced game in a game jam!

Space Cave by Timo Gass 2021-05-09T11:33:55Z

@orcpaladin Thanks. I think the browser version has some issues with the lights, but for demonstration it's good enough :D

Space Cave by Timo Gass 2021-05-09T11:35:52Z

@bytinggames Wow, thanks for basically sharing your whole testing experience xD Yeah.. the balancing. I think having the basic game earlier would've helped a lot, but I changed my whole plan after the first day :D

Space Cave by Timo Gass 2021-05-09T11:37:50Z

@reheated Thanks :) Glad to hear you like it! I think there are a couple of things left to polish.. well time is key xD

Space Cave by Timo Gass 2021-05-09T11:39:45Z

@sacredbacon Yeah, my basic game idea was even more about exploration and harvesting in the cave. Did you play it in the browser or the runtime? I think the WebGl version sadly has some issues with the lights :/

Space Cave by Timo Gass 2021-05-09T11:41:33Z

@guimm12 Wow, 2000m is really impressive :O

Thanks a lot. Yeah, some difficulty scaling over the levels would've been nice, I know.

Glad you liked my devlog too :D

Space Cave by Timo Gass 2021-05-09T11:47:56Z

@mikoziq Thanks for the detailed feedback!

Yeah, I really understand your cons. I think one more day, or even half a day could've made a lot of difference. Better fighting and more enemies would have been my next steps, too :D

Space Cave by Timo Gass 2021-05-09T11:49:53Z

@rubixnoob13 Yes, I hoped it would make you shoot more wisely and precise, but the shooting overall didn't feel as good as I wished it would.

Thanks for your feedback!

Space Cave by Timo Gass 2021-05-09T11:51:39Z

@boon Yeah, I really wanted you to feel floaty xD And I think the maneuvering turned out quite right :D

Yes, the fighting could need some more balancing :/ Thanks man!

Space Cave by Timo Gass 2021-05-09T11:52:21Z

@chenyi-jiang @olddog Thanks guys :D

Space Cave by Timo Gass 2021-05-09T11:53:13Z

@conduit Perfecly timed death :D Thanks man!

Yes, the soundtrack was a "let's build something in 15 minutes" :D

Space Cave by Timo Gass 2021-05-09T16:56:31Z

@jkyd Thanks a lot, yeah I think that could be pretty much the last 10 percent missing :D Hope I'll be quicker next time to polish more

Space Cave by Timo Gass 2021-05-09T16:58:17Z

@rolodophone Yes, more enemies and overall some balance adjustments. I reallized the floaty movement didn't work to good with the projectiles.

Hope I'll get to polish my next game a little bit more xD

Space Cave by Timo Gass 2021-05-09T16:59:05Z

@vederant Thanks man!

Space Cave by Timo Gass 2021-05-09T16:59:53Z

@siberpunk01 Same! xD When playtesting I starte shooting on the first two floors or so and than just run through xD Balancing...

Space Cave by Timo Gass 2021-05-09T17:00:47Z

@wonderingpixel Thanks :) Happy you like it. I somehow really like to always add some kind of randomness!

I will!

Space Cave by Timo Gass 2021-05-09T17:02:22Z

@gamesbysaul Hey, nice to see you here xD Yeah, It was hard to find a good middle ground between floaty and precise.. Thanks man!

Space Cave by Timo Gass 2021-05-09T17:03:41Z

@madbookstudios Yeah, the enemies really could be a little bit more "readable". But happy you enjoyed it anyways :3 Thanks man!

Space Cave by Timo Gass 2021-05-09T17:04:55Z

@oadt Yes, some distance or a cooldown for enemies on new floors could really help to make the game a bit more "fair". I hope to remember some of those things for the next jam :D
