LD23 — Tiny World

Disregard All Humans by Fireblend 2012-05-13T15:32:00

You seem to have meshed the two most common type of games in this comp - feeding frenzy type games and platformer-where-you-walk-around-the-world type games. Except without any real challenge. Still. I had fun.

My Kid Dropped The Planet by MadGnomeGamer 2012-04-24T10:05:00

Your "web" version is a little misleading, as that usually implies that it is cross-platform. In fact the web version is only windows.

It's a tiny world by Endurion 2012-04-23T14:22:00

Nice game although a very simple concept.

Giant's Crash ! by Hatscat 2012-04-26T11:03:00

Nice idea, could be a bit "ghetto" in places though.

The Two of Us by scoopsy 2012-05-13T15:21:00

This is extremely rough man... surely it wouldn't have taken more than five minutes to make some sort of retry? Interesting physics, good start, but I was hoping for a bit more.

Kill Drill by rik 2012-04-23T15:43:00

Decent visuals/sound but the gameplay is a little plain.

Asylum by Orni 2012-05-13T16:15:00

The introduction pissed me off. I want a game, not a tedious, boring monologue. The rest of the game was more interesting.

World Saver! by Zythiku 2012-05-05T21:04:00

Lol invaderJim, you best be trolling.

Flea Circus by robbiehunt 2012-04-23T14:57:00

This is what I like to see in a Ludum Dare game. Totally unlike anything I have ever conceived, fun to play and slightly mad. YES

Block Bros by HeuGamer 2012-04-23T23:03:00

I think you should have had less levels. The pacing is WAAY too slow, the early levels are tedious at best. So that's just a game design flaw.

But congratulations, you should be proud of making your first game. And the later levels do get more interesting.

ONLY US by Datamosh 2012-05-12T22:02:00

I totally get this, I went for a similar idea with my entry... surviving in a tiny world. Great job.

Flight of the Ladybug by robcozzens 2012-04-26T11:13:00

In a way it's a shame that this is an even simpler version of an extremely simple game. But I like helicopter so much this is still fun.

Let's Go Moon by Transmit 2012-04-26T11:24:00

It was fun, but a simple feeding frenzy clone with no real difficulty.

HeroRoll by Magnega 2012-04-23T14:27:00

Hey, I really enjoyed the scrolling-roguelike concept, it's the most refreshing idea I've seen yet. Woo!

Blob Blob TROUBLE! by samooJAM 2012-04-23T15:04:00

Good job on making a 3d game with decent gameplay and everything.

Pixel Wars by Kalabasa 2012-04-23T15:40:00

Hard to do because there's not much strategy involved. But I liked the destructive terrain.

I Should Clean My Keyboard by cmo7 2012-04-23T21:01:00

Nice concept, I like these simple-controls bullet-hell type games. Very minimalist.

Attack on the Planet XXS-01 by TenTonToon 2012-04-23T14:32:00

Nice idea, if a little a safe. Strange controls.

Minor Deities by maranas 2012-04-23T15:10:00

Reminds me of a certain other God game, Sandbox of God. Funny. Bit buggy and short though.

Tiny Path by ccscanf 2012-04-24T16:15:00

"Must have Mac 10.7 or later, you have 10.6.8"
Your audience is SERIOUSLY limited with this one so far.

Tiny Island by Zathnic 2012-04-23T16:09:00

Kinda simple, "seen it all before" gameplay. But well executed regardless.

Beyond by ben 2012-04-23T22:56:00

Your website made it unclear that you had to scroll down, because of my low screen resolution.

Obligatory props for 3d, but I would have better more gameplay over fancy schmantzy visuals.

March of the Ladybirds by MrDanH 2012-04-23T21:52:00

Good effort, although it is kind of basically Lemmings. I forgive you though.

Ra Ra by YMM 2012-04-23T20:43:00

I won't take account that there's no single-player (but still...)

I like how the seemingly simple boxing mechanic is actually surprisingly deep. Great style, too.

Game of anthills by azmaeve 2012-04-23T15:22:00

Not much to do. Would have been nice if you expanded on the gameplay a little bit.

Lost Oxide by SidetrackGames 2012-05-12T22:11:00

Character reminds me of the rabbit dude from Donnie Darko for some reason. I liked the mood and stuff.

Could have been more of a reward at the end. The death collision were a bit annoying sometimes. There could have been more variety of obstacles.

Dude, where's my planet by Zamando 2012-04-24T10:02:00

Nice art style. Unfortunately there's quite a few games like this given the theme, but the "run-up" mechanic is fairly original.

Enter The Mechanism by Lotsa 2012-04-23T14:36:00

Nice idea, simple puzzle gameplay. Theme could have been more prominent, I didn't see much in terms of "tiny world". Music was... overdramatic? Oh well. It was fun to play, regardless.

Lililput by Incredible Ape 2012-05-13T15:36:00

Amusing, got difficult very very quickly but I like the presentation and the novelty of mispelling words.

The Collector by blob 2012-04-23T21:19:00

Sorry, I won't rate due to the issues you're having.

aidas by mitkus 2012-04-24T16:08:00

A nice variation on Sokoban... but still very much a Sokoban game.

Tiny Basket World by stromchin 2012-04-23T14:38:00

Haha, well I've seen this type of game before, but the use of theme is pretty hilarious.

To What a Mountain? by cageinabird 2012-04-23T16:12:00

Haha, brilliant.

Humphrey's Tiny Adventure by jacobalbano 2012-04-23T20:47:00

The animation IS SO SLOW. Either that or I couldn't figure out how to play. So I can't rate, sorry.

Fooling Yourself in Moderation by ronsho 2012-04-23T21:56:00

This is very odd. The gameplay is there, I suppose, but in the oddest scenario ever.

Toad Warrior by SpaceToaster 2012-04-23T21:59:00

Really nice concept and graphics, but I wasn't as excited about the gameplay, animation or interaction. Still, this is an excellent prototype with which to make something great.

Tiny World! by unicornpooping 2012-04-23T14:59:00

Hey man this was a fun little game, the overall concept was a little safe but it was still enjoyable.

Tronster Tiny World by tronster 2012-04-23T20:31:00

Hey Tronster, remember me? xD Fun little puzzle game you've got here, great presentation too.

Predicament by orangepascal 2012-04-24T16:05:00

It was short but a very charming game all the same. I appreciate what you were trying to do here.

Kumiho by Christina Antoinette Neofotistou 2012-05-13T17:00:00

You're collisions/gameplay didn't quite do the awesome graphics justice.

ANtopia by pgil 2012-05-13T16:23:00

Cool game.

Aether by Danik 2012-04-23T14:42:00

This is the first above average game I've played. Great concept, great gameplay. Super. Smashing. Great.

Ant, Bee, Cow, Pig and Spider BOSS by karnakgames 2012-04-23T15:16:00

This was hilarious, no idea about the actual game, but I loled.

Startrash Galaxy by KungPhoo 2012-04-23T14:06:00

I really like the visuals and setting, you obviously put alot of time into looks here. I found the main character a little dissappointing though, and I'm not sure I understand the controls - maybe it went over my head. Great job!

Pixel Story by Flyboy 2012-04-23T13:57:00

Many have asked, "when it comes to graphics resolution in my game, how low is too low?" This game attempts to answer that question by diving into depths of low resolution never before ventured. Even in the 60s, they were less hipster indie. Bravo.

The Office by Mirroar 2012-04-24T16:14:00

I wasn't too amused at having to make an account. But I guess it made a nice to change to usual type of games.

dLeIaFtEh by Cell 2012-04-23T15:19:00

Not much to say. Simple kind of idea, seen it before. Nice pixel art I guess.

Wunderworld by ratking 2012-04-23T15:34:00

Given the timeframe this is very impressive.

Tiny Quest by Kvisle 2012-04-23T15:13:00

Kind of simple, but it looks great and it plays great.

My Little Planetoid by matthias_zarzecki 2012-04-26T10:58:00

I've played a couple of game like this (with the exact same food/material house/factory/farm mechanic) for this Ludum Dare. Good execution though.

Where It Begins by FredericRP 2012-04-23T15:58:00

Cute little game. He's a stubborn so-and-so, that blue circle.

Gravity Sucks [WEB] by Nocturne 2012-04-23T21:46:00

This is probably one of the more finished feeling games I've played so far. Everything is very well presented and functional. I guess if you're going to be polishing up, you might focus on the graphics. They're certainly passable, but not quite the "iPhone" quality the rest of the game lives up to you. I also have a slight quibble about the collectible stars... somehow they felt unnecessary seemed to slow the pacing down considerably, but I still agree that there should be some kind of collectible. Perhaps if the stars tended to appear in the space in between planets rather than tending on the surface of the planets themselves, that would be an improvement.

Angle Isle by Rusty Moyher 2012-04-26T11:18:00

Great gameplay mechanic, now you just need to expand on this and you've got a great game.

Stomp-A-Thump by OnionBlaze 2012-04-26T12:01:00

SMAAAAASH

Mini-Worlds and Monocles by Zed 2012-04-23T15:30:00

Kind of basic, but what it does it does well.

Aloft by Mark Ffrench 2012-04-26T10:28:00

Nice idea, would have been nice to be able to rotate the view of the island, in some way, perhaps integrated into the controls.

Subatomica by SFBTom 2012-05-13T15:48:00

Finally, another original idea. I was beginning to lose hope.

Space Bear by madflame991 2012-04-23T15:48:00

Simple game, but I like the whole mood.

Smallworld Survival by Norgg 2012-04-26T10:51:00

Kind of a bit basic, but I get what you were trying to do and it looks like a good a startpoint.

Synthesis by marudziik 2012-04-23T14:48:00

Amusing game. Borderline educational, dear me.

Friends and Foes by Gjarble 2012-05-12T22:15:00

On the basic side gameplay wise, but I love these flying-bird platformer games. And you took an interesting spin on the theme.

Sirus the Virus by eburn184 2012-05-13T16:00:00

This game is the most refreshing and complete-feeling I've played so far. Really, good job on this one.

Predominantly Tiny World by Graham Weldon 2012-05-13T16:04:00

Liked everything except the gameplay itself. But I forgive you, just for the whole mood of it.

The Plane Walker by Danvil 2012-04-23T22:05:00

Not much to say. A basic roguelike. Good effort.

MyLittleWorld by guzzungo 2012-04-23T14:19:00

The world and setting was nice, the gameplay itself could have been more involved.

Dave is in a Fish Tank by Toast 2012-04-23T15:52:00

@thristhart The primary goal is just scoremongering. There is an endgame as well - getting a rocket and then fueling it with items. But I made that extremely hard to do. If anyone actually does it I will be amazed.

Dave is in a Fish Tank by Toast 2012-04-23T20:40:00

@YMM I noticed the unpredictability. I wish I thought to add a visual aid.

Dave is in a Fish Tank by Toast 2012-04-23T21:36:00

@Nocturne Yeah definitely, the randomness is something I was sitting around thinking "I should probably fix that". It would have been an easy fix too, just never got round to it in the 48 hours.

Dave is in a Fish Tank by Toast 2012-04-25T02:51:00

@MadGnomeGamer I'm afraid random deaths might be the case... that's the flaw in such a small timeframe to make a game I guess. Are we allowed to fix bugs?

Dave is in a Fish Tank by Toast 2012-05-01T23:52:00

Really glad to hear you enjoyed it - that is the point of it, after all.

It isn't supposed to electrocute him, no... but obviously the bug is caused by something and that's a possibility. I haven't looked for it yet.

Super Fun Crushy Time! by Darkfrost 2012-04-23T22:04:00

This is one of my favourites so far. I mean, the concept itself is a little safe, but just the fact you can execute it in the way you have is impressive.

caveman defending his cave from aliens while monoliths drop down from the sky by bms 2012-04-26T11:10:00

That was fun, not much to it, but fun.

Zephyr by cadin 2012-04-24T16:18:00

Definitely one of the above average games, I enjoyed this one.

GERMS: A Ghost Story by matt 2012-04-23T22:27:00

Loving the original gameplay. This was strangely eerie and disturbing. =S

Rocket Boat by RHY3756547 2012-05-13T15:45:00

While the presentation, physics and overall idea are good, the controls and ui are annoying.

Dessert Planet by Darien 2012-04-23T20:37:00

Fun game, if a little over-simple.

Hummy's Hunger by GFM 2012-05-13T15:41:00

This was unintentionally creepy... interesting implementation of the feeding frenzy mechanic, just needs some actual challenge now.

Swift by andrebeton 2012-04-23T14:54:00

Amusing. Bit of a one-trick pony, but I enjoyed playing.

Tiny Archaeologist by toaster 2012-04-25T01:24:00

We go together like rama lama lama ke ding a de dinga a dong

Marry me, toaster.

I'll probably play the game at some point too.

Tiny Archaeologist by toaster 2012-04-25T15:41:00

I'm still waiting to hear back from my proposal. I am heartbroken. We're made for each other.

Anyway I liked the graphics and story and stuff. Bit barebones, hoping there would be a bit more to the gameplay than there was. But I still love you.

The Lair by Lilleman 2012-05-05T21:00:00

Personally Ludum Dare is all about originality and this was anything but original.

trapped. by noddy2006 2012-05-13T15:26:00

I guess this is ok for 11 hours work. You could have certainly made this alot more fun if you'd worked on it twice as long, though.
