LD48 — Deeper and deeper (19)

Into the Deep Web by Jon Topielski 2021-04-28T07:28:18Z ♥ 1

I had a great time, writing is fun, I like the graphics and battle system! Only comment: dragging action with a mouse is a bit annoying, clicking 2 times ( action then target ) would feel better on pc ?

10,001 - A space exploration game by tengusheath 2021-04-28T07:10:50Z ♥ 1

You nailed the atmosphere , visuals and music. How would you communicate where to go to the player if you were to do a longer version?

Bad Faith by Craig Cordeiro 2021-04-27T20:14:20Z ♥ 1

I loved it :) I wonder why interactive fiction is not more popular in this world of smartphones :) I think maybe some introductory text before first choice are a bit long ?

Sheppard by PeaNud 2021-04-27T19:44:56Z ♥ 1

It is really feeling like a world, I played to completion I think :) Constructive feedback : the default view is a little too zoomed in. It is good to put the lovely assets front and center, but you end up jumping on platforms at the edge of your field of vision very frequently ! Loved the boss and the dashing mechanic ( which could do damage? )

Soapbox Racer by Rick2112 2021-04-27T19:34:08Z ♥ 1

I think you should avoid using rar to distribute the game? Also it doesnt play if you install it with itch io app.

Deep down the asteroid by FrauKauz 2021-04-27T19:32:15Z ♥ 2

looks really great ! I love the laser animation. Needing to time it to avoid ennemies is a good mechanic. Ennemies well animated too, and soothing to collect the plants. Quite accomplished !

Street Spark Racing by BytingGames 2021-04-27T19:20:30Z ♥ 1

I love it, just the right length, funny story, funny to kick your car, visually surprisingly pleasing ( everything fits together )

Logistics Boy by Dis0rder 2021-04-27T19:09:09Z ♥ 2

I love it, so so polished :) Even the game page is so tidy and inviting :) Hats off ! ^^ Extra kudos for the player breakdancing when moving :) Turning the non animated aspect into a strength to tell more story.

Deeper In The Night by Lorwon 2021-04-27T19:03:10Z ♥ 0

Kudos for the technology :) I like the early 3d look, it has some nice touch! The illumination mechanic is nice! It is pretty hard to see the ghosts coming when they are outside the field of vision, maybe having some visual cues on the border of the screen ( as if you hear something on your left ? )

Badger Break-In by Knatt 2021-04-27T18:54:37Z ♥ 2

I quite like the whip and title and character design and animation are great! The tutorial begin of level is interesting. Very quickly however the gameplay with the honeycombs to climb becomes very difficult!! Also the trajectory of the "whip" is not very dynamic, could be a little more direct and straight like castlevania? It would feel better?

MechaRock by Robonaut121 2021-04-27T10:35:56Z ♥ 0

really looks and sounds good, nice physics :) It is a shame that you don't get an end of level ( you resist as long as you can but you can't really win ). As a player I need a reward, or a score :) Otherwise pooping blocks is fun ^^

Krakonsequence by JudgeZedd 2021-04-26T21:32:27Z ♥ 2

I really like the use of audio and the kraken look :) Twin stick controls would increase the playability. The tentacles reach should be longer?

Wilford - Deep Underground by BattleCat 2021-04-26T21:26:53Z ♥ 0

It is suprisingly fun to navigate, pickaxe feels great and has good feedback. I am very curious to see zhere you zhere getting at playability wise :)

sub hunt by trixydevs 2021-04-26T21:22:04Z ♥ 2

The use of audio and spoken commentary is great !

Square Diver by FussenKuh 2021-04-26T21:18:01Z ♥ 3

Surprisingly fun ! It is strange being penalized when hitting objects, as the pinball like physics feel good :)

Maze Of The Minotaur by PythooonUser 2021-04-26T19:38:45Z ♥ 2

The look and audio work well, a run button would be a must when searching and backtracking.

The Deepest of them all by WitekWitek 2021-04-26T19:34:04Z ♥ 1

I like marble madness like anyday, but this is waaaaay too hard ;)

Labyrinth of the Undead by D34TH0FTIT4N5 2021-04-26T19:21:46Z ♥ 1

I like the palette and know the cutscene on level transition! I didn't think there were much choice in the paths of the maze, which makes it a bit samey after a while. An animation on the player move would be great, like rolling, or rocket blast ! You could implement a combo system ( if you time your presses in a certain way, you go faster and faster )

Dwarfer Moleman by RodPraet 2021-04-26T19:15:10Z ♥ 4

Graphically superb touch, I quite like the beat them all action :) I think that the player's reach should be a bit longer, and some kind of belt brawler combo would be good ( 3 blows in a row or something like that )

LD40 — The more you have, the worse it is (33)

Will by Thy Duck 2017-12-19T08:32:04Z ♥ 1

IT LOOKS AWESOME : you need to fix it and make it an arcade game with a good feedback loop ! Graphics are awesome, the sound is great, it is really inviting, event the main menu is awesome ! I didn't spot if cats made you slower ? The animations when you get knocked over or smashed on the road are hilarious! However the road takes a lot of space, and the spawn of the cars is really random and quick: you should moderate that by adding a flashing sign and a beeping noise before the car spawns. Keep working on it !

Super childcare assistant by boorik 2017-12-18T17:20:43Z ♥ 1

Well excellent theme :) As a parent the theme itself sells me the game :) I like the control and the experience but for such a time attack game you can not be super precise > definitely something can be done with this theme, maybe move your robot with charge/dash, or a slingshot , and relax the time limit a bit ? Glad I played this , a good ludum dare game (scope / size ).

A simple man by edmond00 2017-12-15T13:47:47Z ♥ 1

Very pretty, very soothing, the engine is very interesting especially when climbing trees ! Very interesting experience for a compo game, I felt really compelled to go further.

A Hero's Burden by muffty 2017-12-15T13:22:56Z ♥ 1

A really superb package, ideally long for a compo game.

Sweltura by paragonpawns 2017-12-13T15:00:57Z ♥ 1

It looks really really good , but the shader doesn't help readability of the action, I think it detracts from the experience. Maybe lighter shaders?

Jazzy Beats by Moski 2017-12-13T13:34:03Z ♥ 3

Frankly superb graphics and atmosphere, a true inspiration! However the gameplay is a bit dry, the problem with anything like a scrolling beat them up is that capcom refined that to death :) The normal blows do not chain and the ennemies do not look stun so the fighting is not very satisfying. Also the bounce to emphasize animation is a good idea, but a tad too pronounced maybe? Still, you definitely nailed audiovisual quality.

Infernus: The Descent by Team Infernus 2017-12-13T13:24:37Z ♥ 1

Frankly good even without animation; you really put the resources where it counted ! :p

Bits by GeroX 2017-12-13T09:32:52Z ♥ 0

It looks really good, the UI is great !! But switching from mouse to keyboard all the time is not that fun. I can see a cool wario ware like game with this look.

Doomsday Lovers! by Simanis 2017-12-13T09:29:13Z ♥ 0

Looks the part; interesting; feels unfinished ? like you spend a lot of time waiting, looking at progress bars, and it is unclear wether you actually have any interest in deleting a text. Could go somewhere as it has the looks !

Rebel Call by SeanNoonan 2017-12-13T09:02:07Z ♥ 2

It looks awesome you really nailed the design and atmosphere ! On the other hand with such a strict time limit it is very annoying to have the player 'stick' to other objects . You are really good at making a compelling atmosphere , which pushes players into trying and trying again.

The Prison Maze of Ozxu by MrPhil 2017-12-13T08:51:33Z ♥ 1

well I quite like it ! for a start it is hosted on itch.io so it's easy to download and play :p the field of view is really cool, it really pushes you to exploration . I think there is no description of the keys anywhere ? I just found 'e' as main spell key. The graphics look good to me, simple but distinctive, especially the baddies. One small improvement would be to fade in and out the walls more smoothly like the ennemies . Is it possible to finish the game?

Shapes Are Mean by BlakeMcDeezy 2017-12-12T16:26:46Z ♥ 1

Really cool finish and mechanic; I can see myself playing more of this, but the increased difficulty on touch is a bit arbitrary; even if it fits the theme it is not very satisfying, and there is no way to decrease the number of beams ? Anyway, a strong basis for a game with a few gameplay tweaks !

Secret of Poop by Phaix 2017-12-12T14:08:42Z ♥ 1

Hi shame it is not finishable, I could see a great parodic action rpg (nice title screen and music, funny physics )

BattleTennis DX Ultra Super by toestee 2017-12-12T12:48:42Z ♥ 1

Looking good but very hard to control; I wish I could get more fun out of it given its great vibe :)

Golden Valkyrie by JOZGames 2017-12-12T07:57:26Z ♥ 1

I LOVE IT. Pretty, intuitive, nice fxs !!!! The notion of rank with the enlargment of the angel is super good !

Reaper Boy LD40 Edition by jessefreeman 2017-12-10T21:14:14Z ♥ 0

Frankly solid . Gameplay is cool, fits the constraint of gb really well . I have a feeling the levels have a random element that served me a really hard level 2 on first go, I am not too keen on that, but overall one of the most polished I try so far ! Bravo

Mr. Capital! by fluidvolt 2017-12-07T21:24:51Z ♥ 1

Frankly impressive! Looks good, sounds good, is funny, the die and retry nature of the gameplay fits well with the short size of the levels.... small minor griefs: controls are a bit touchy maybe, and ... you should upload it to itch.io so that more people will get to discover it by using their app !!!!!

Npigs by 6smith 2017-12-07T19:54:44Z ♥ 0

You really nailed the graphics sfx music and atmosphere ! However, the more pigs you free, the more annoying it gets, they do not really add anything and it is hard to keep everyone on the same level. maybe make all the freed pigs follow you , unless you drop one for a puzzle ?

Quantum's Rick by cortexdeveloper 2017-12-07T16:01:23Z ♥ 3

Looks terrific and the game over is quite satisfying, but I didn't get the goal of the game from the tutorial?

Blood Clot by Miguel Montero 2017-12-07T15:47:51Z ♥ 1

It is really interesting: the mechanic is interesting, and in movement it looks cool. The physics become very interesting when the canal becomes very clogged. But there is a sense you can't win ! That is a downside, meaning even in a very hard japanese space shooter, you eventually can win or progress. Still , I like it, I just wish I felt more at a chance as a player :p

Flirt the(m)all by themarioga 2017-12-07T15:40:20Z ♥ 1

The mall and characters are very pretty ! The character could be made less floaty and maybe the navigation handled with a map (the big arrow is a bit disruptive and has a ... ahem ... distinctive shape ? :) ) Impressive overall, potential !!!!!

Infested by Megalink 2017-12-07T13:12:44Z ♥ 1

Well it is good ! Everything is in the right place , you nailed it graphically, I like the hero's animations. Is it finishable ? Really succeeds in suggesting a larger world around, a bit too much text in the help though :)

Bum Bag Bangin' by DuzzOnDrums 2017-12-07T12:07:19Z ♥ 2

The quasi rythm game aspect is really cool, but there is not much you can do in the gameplay ; it gets monotonous. I love it nonetheless for the experience ! The setting is superb; just a bit more of a game in there would be AWESOME . ( the use of sound is wonderful )

EDIT : if the "text" display was flying towards you like a bullet you could dodge, it would make the game complete as a so very pretty shmup !!!!

Yellow Beans by Jecr 2017-12-07T09:23:24Z ♥ 1

short but pretty cool, very nice overall feel

Jingle Bells Defense by Kyrv19 2017-12-06T20:24:54Z ♥ 1

I would play an action exploration with this style, it is pretty . The control of the player is ok, but I feel that the feedback to shoot the snowmen should be more satisfying; they should explode with a gushing sound and throw snow everywhere of something :) Killing them could /should be more satisfying ! Also it would be natural to hide bonuses in their body bodies :)

ParanoWeed by Eraleis 2017-12-06T19:57:23Z ♥ 0

Performance drops drastically after picking up something on my pretty decent machine: a shame I really wanted to play more !!!!!! The mix of detailed characters and pixel city works surprisingly well, I would put a small black outline on the foreground elements to improve readability.

Grooblins! by ahintoflime 2017-12-06T19:52:22Z ♥ 2

Short and sweet like an ldjam game should be, I tend to be over ambitious :) Well the format really works and the graphic sound treatment also, real progression in the short story. Different story paths would be cool but hey this was already enjoyable !

Space War Never Ends by X Budsterized X 2017-12-06T19:42:37Z ♥ 1

I love it, I will probably play it again :) the tongue in cheek way in which the game is described puts me even more in the mood. shmup rogue like works really well, because even if you die fast , you want to spend your money so you do not stop playing ! Minor advice: from a usability standpoint, going from mouse to keyboard is a bit painful, I would allow keyboard navigation of the menu screen not to break the flow.

Chaparrito's Adventure by Johnsey 2017-12-06T15:25:59Z ♥ 0

It looks very very good and the basic feeling of the movement and the shooting mecanic feel good ! It needs more "meat", more levels :)

The Burger Joint by zantze 2017-12-06T15:10:16Z ♥ 1

I LOVE IT ! put a grin on my face the whole time I was playing; first time ever I want to learn box2D And yes you can actually serve burgers :)

Boiler Room Defense by cerno-b 2017-12-06T10:43:21Z ♥ 0

That is good ! Looks good, has music, the flakes and ice setting is a nice idea. More variety / bosses in the waves would be good though . I liked the bees !!!!

Passenger Peril by Julester 2017-12-06T10:34:45Z ♥ 1

Well it looks good, the scale is good , it is quite cool to throw people out of the plane !! Counld become a crazy arcade game like "outfoxies"; I think that the time pressure is not enough, it was fun to kick people out, but they should fight back and resist ?

Bo Jackson in The Temple of Ming by Nodine 2017-12-06T08:44:42Z ♥ 1

I really like it ! I was grinning to myself the whole time :P worth polishing !
