LD26 — Minimalism

Cube Colors by PabloAlexandre31 2013-05-01T04:07:00

I got stuck with gray but I enjoyed so far, really neat concept, great for the theme.

Colourless by Puccini 2013-04-30T18:31:00

Perfect use of the theme, nice entry.

Coin Collector by anbreizh 2013-04-29T04:31:00

Cool, I loved how creative and at the same time classic it was. I don't like too much writing my name everytime I lose, but maybe is because I lose too much :p

Rock Paper RPG by Jan Marcano 2013-04-30T01:08:00

Sympathic game and implementation at first seemed so cinematic to me that I thought that I was watching a dialogue.

XYZ by ataxkt 2013-04-30T18:44:00

Smooth and creative, it is also somehow relaxing. Great game.

Beyond Minimalism by SaintHeiser 2013-04-30T03:46:00

I'm glad to give this game a second chance, I was indeed relaxing a with great sound.
I also would have liked a bigger tree area.

Zombie Blocks Attack by hgouveia 2013-04-29T05:17:00

Reminds me of a kind of Killing Floor but 2D, it is fun albeit a little hard.

Jump by Test User 2013-04-29T05:24:00

24 here!

Mag by alexfalkenberg 2013-04-29T19:53:00

I love the effects on this one, and is fun, my speedrun of level 1 an 2 is hit A + forward key :P

COLORUS by JokerDen 2013-04-30T15:20:00

Nice game, I did not imagined poo could be so dangerous.

Mini danmaku by CogComp 2013-04-29T21:01:00

For when the unharm walkthrough? :P

Messimalism by NeverAutomatic 2013-05-01T03:51:00

This is hectic!, vibrant colors and really cool music.
Extra humor points for potato mode xD.

Minimalistic Minimization by rainblade studios 2013-04-30T12:01:00

Challenging but fun, just add an online leaderboard and it will be tenfold more addictive.

Free by vladimirdlc 2013-04-29T04:47:00

This game is a sort of puzzle platformer, you move only by shooting force spheres and entering in them. WASD is not enabled. Have fun.

Free by vladimirdlc 2013-04-29T15:30:00

@mortus @gokuhd I liked the idea of making the player feel small against the world, exploration is harder but more rewarding if you're into metaphors and riddles.
Also is more fun when you find the canon speed modifiers in the last level. I listed them now on the description for hasty players.
The control decisions where hard to balance with the level design, as it is now you can even 'fly' with the base speed and the right clicks. Maybe with a little tweaks may come more user friendly and less mouse killer, but I am glad that you could enjoy it as it is now :)

Free by vladimirdlc 2013-05-01T03:44:00

@NeverAutomatic I am actually considering elaborating this to be a more polished proof of concept or a full-fledged game :)

@RARoadkill "The world would be a more fun place if everyone got around with explosions" Indeed xD

Solitary by PurpleMoustache 2013-04-30T02:27:00

You definitely like some dark stuff, nice game.

[ ] by YukonW 2013-04-29T04:57:00

Perfect for the theme. Really great use of the resources and it is fun.

The Sentient Cube by Omiya Games 2013-04-29T14:04:00

One of my favourites entries so far, fun and beautiful.

Bladeless by kidevil 2013-04-30T21:52:00

Gorgeous art, I like how the mechanics are not just pure luck but involve some thought.

Add Removal by StuStutheBloo 2013-04-30T02:42:00

Good game that gets really hard. Quite enjoyable mechanic.

True treasure of Kartoffelschloss by mortus 2013-04-30T00:51:00

I liked it, I did not thought that it would end with that progression, interesting.

Root Route! by netpro2k 2013-05-01T15:40:00

I love how creative and relaxing this game is, the music is gives it a great mood.

Square Quest by duskpn 2013-04-29T19:00:00

I had a great time playing this one, is curious how even people with different numerals should be able to play it.

Mini-Malicious - when the bit bugs byte by multitude 2013-04-30T01:55:00

That was hilarious, it was funny to hear you say 'that's what you call a winner' or something like that xd. Nice music too.

Bezier Challenge by Travis Irby 2013-04-30T05:08:00

This is like the angry birds for math geek haha.

Minimalist Horror Story by MinionStudios 2013-04-30T18:39:00

Potato! I should play this by night with the lights turned off.

Time to Think by MrWhoof 2013-04-29T21:03:00

Nice mood and feel, it is a little hard indeed,

BASHLAND - Breakout Mario Mashup by McFunkypants 2013-04-29T19:21:00

Beautiful and quite fun, particles ftw!

Freefall by jevnoalex 2013-05-14T16:46:00

If you don't do an improved version of this game I may ripoff the idea, cool concept.

Minimal Mousetraps by Johnicholas 2013-04-30T03:30:00

I have always been curious about Love, glad this game reminded me of it.
Interesting use of theme, I would have liked that the game had an adaptative resolution, it was a little big to my screen.

Extruder by bitbof 2013-05-02T19:11:00

Really smooth game, perfect balance of graphics and sound, and creative use of the theme. Kudos.

Mondrian Click by CherryNukaCola 2013-04-30T04:13:00

It took me a little to guess the mechanic, and yes after rechecking the instructions it was more fun and less frustrating.
Ah, btw, have you played hundreds? xd.

ZIN by fierysquirrel 2013-04-29T19:13:00

Nice, classic and and the same time innovative, with time it gets hectic.

Defender. by Tainted_Code 2013-05-01T16:03:00

Yay, after the 4th time I could defended it, it was fun, I liked the retro style.

llab by tonic 2013-04-29T17:10:00

Fun game, I like the mechanics a lot and its simplicity.

Super Mandelbrot Explorer Mk3 Turbo Deluxe with Cheese by SeanAtr0n 2013-04-30T04:18:00

Oh my... fractals!

Complexity by RobProductions 2013-05-11T23:38:00

Quite complex but enjoyable :)

LD27 — 10 Seconds

NSA's Where's Snowden? by Will Edwards 2013-09-03T15:50:00

Wow, this was so ambitious. I loved the idea, completely original. I found hard the instructions, specially booking a flight for the 'agents'. The use and inclusion of pseudo-sql was really cool, and I believe this could be a great didactical tool, in the lines of Oregan Trail.

Btw, it is "Caracas Simón Bolívar, Venezuela", on the game it's named a little different the site, or you did that on purpose?

Certain Defeat by L 2013-08-26T04:00:00

Lovely art, this had a so fluid gameplay and movement <3

Legend of Troll by Christina Antoinette Neofotistou 2013-08-31T23:33:00

Really pretty pixel art, and original (albeit evil) gameplay, I liked it very much.
The music is nice and fitting as well.
I think there I found a bug. When the last minion was going to die, I pressed control and arrows, and then he 'revived' and never was able to die. Also, maybe start with someone already selected would be good.
The game itself it's a little short, but really well polished, I'll look forward to your post-compo version :)

10 Seconds to Live by Conflei 2013-08-27T19:29:00

I died :(, I loved some of this jokes, my favourite minigame was the one of the textbook at school.

Death Rooms by Jan Marcano 2013-08-27T20:37:00

The platforming levels were much harder for me than the combat ones.
I would have liked if jumping up, on the top of the screen did not killed you. Overall I had fun with the game and found it pretty enjoyable.

The King's spin by Mironix 2013-09-06T15:36:00

There are some problems with the colliders and gravity. As the player carries weapons, I assumed the player could fight; as it's not the case, I would suggest removing that from the avatar.
Gameplay is a little confusing, but not so hard I think, maybe and brief indication at the beggining would have helped.
Voice over was interesting, and art was ok, the overall style make this somehow enjoyable in a totally funny way.

Haraka by gikdew 2013-08-27T00:20:00

This is hard, kind of remind me of VVVVVV. Nice music and good simple, hardcore fun.

Every 10 Seconds a Window Washer Falls to his Death by dom2d 2013-08-27T01:01:00

I was really impressed, this is my current favourite in this ludum dare.

Woodman for President by lcarpentier 2013-08-29T21:25:00

Yuhuu! I got to be the president, this game had so much unexpected tension! :)

Death Star by Nuclear_Hammer 2013-08-29T14:35:00

I wish there were some kind of end, not just the endless loop of the second level. The first level was cool, and specially challenging, the art is nice too.

BouncyTime by Brejlounek 2013-09-05T22:24:00

Cool game, it reminded me of this one in which you had to kill yourself every 60 seconds and grab an energy ball, and the cycle repeated itself over and over again until you lose all your lifes.
I liked the interpretation of the theme, and the gameplay was fun. I would have prefered if the clock ran on the paviment instead of having an overlay, but is a minor detail.
Sfxs were cool, and art was ok, not my cup of tea, but surely is functional. The painted smile was a funny detail.
Btw, I tried to close the window, just hitting the 'x' on the border, and it did not work, is not a big deal, but I think is an usability issue to take into account in the future.

Bomb Squad by Levi D. Smith 2013-08-28T20:28:00

The voice over makes the game feel truly unique, the addition of gamepad support is appreciated. Good work.

Parallel Panic by Jyrkface 2013-08-28T21:30:00

I died a lot in the desert level, I think it's so sad that there are no continues, as I couldn't figure out what should I have done in that level after pickin up the coins.
Nice graphics and animation, I also would have liked music and sound.

Keg Quest by Crazi456 2013-09-06T19:02:00

Simple but pretty functional graphics, the mechanics were a little difficult to get into but after a while it gets more intituive.
I would have prefered an smoother difficulty curve after passing the levels, the 3rd one was especially hard, but may just be a need of practice. I also would have liked a little more of arcade physics, specially 'on air' movement, it was rather stiff.
Overall GG you have there.

10 Seconds by rogueNoodle 2013-08-27T13:12:00

Interesting graphics, I am curious about your approach to handle deads as you change the level even if you die or fall.
The music good and effects, but maybe changing the pitch or the volume of the louder notes may make it more pleasant.

Potato Lagoon by rezoner 2013-09-15T01:33:00

This was cool and quick fun, good use of js, it worked perfectly on my android

10 Second Topple by Travis Irby 2013-08-28T19:37:00

This is really cool, I enjoyed playing the game, physics are nice and presentation is austere but attractive.
I would have liked a little more of background sounds or music (and ESC on fullscreen :P), pretty solid nonetheless.

Play Time's Over by Broxxar 2013-09-06T15:30:00

I finished it twice, it was fun. As the rules come random, sometimes the come too unfair, but the rules system was interesting, it reminded me of a game titled Tower of Heaven.
Graphics, music and effects were nice, really polished game.

"10 seconds left, Mr. Pink Rabbit!" by Lightmare Studio 2013-08-27T16:33:00

This was funny, fun and bloody not much more can be asked :) GG

Chrono Blood Ninja by theholychicken 2013-09-01T01:54:00

It gets hectic, and as people have told you, it will need a restart button.
This is simple but pure fun, the music is a little monotonous, next time try a longer tune.

Hurry UP! by Sense 2013-08-29T12:43:00

Beautiful! love the overall mood, graphics and animations, pretty smooth.

10 seconds by cschwartz 2013-09-06T18:42:00

I like this type of puzzle games, it brings back memories of some stages in zelda or pokemon.
Is enjoyable, and I found some puzzles creative.
On the gameplay part I had hard time trying to placing the tile modifiers. If you iterate over this in the future I think that in this area there is room to improve.

Core 10 by Towanime 2013-08-27T15:16:00

This was interesting, nice music and I found the gameplay really creative, the strategy component in the game is a good touch.

All 10s - Todo 10s | Mocodrilos Enterprise Present: by DallOner 2013-08-28T16:02:00

Hay algunos detalles con las colisiones, pero me gustó la idea, y la música está simpática.

10 Second Bureaucrat by nikkesen 2013-08-27T00:12:00

I knew that it had to be a trap those tempting offers! But I fell on it anyway... this had a great balance in presentation and narrative, it was really funny to see how you applied the theme.

I Am Time Bomb by LegacyCrono 2013-08-28T21:58:00

I wish it had it also AI. Anyway, it's really cool to see multiplayer games in the ludum dare.
The port is great news! I would love to try this with some friends on the OUYA.

Every Ten Seconds A Kitten Drowns by matthias_zarzecki 2013-08-29T14:39:00

Love the calm music, it was fun, cool touch the upgrade system.

John Q. Adamant by nddrylliog 2013-08-30T19:08:00

I enjoyed playing this, the background history was interesting and a nice addition, I would have liked more diversity in the audio and effects department. The art could be improved but I get is programmer's art ;)
The difficulty was ok. Thanks for the great feedback btw.

LD29 — Beneath the Surface

Refuge by MunkeeBacon 2014-05-01T16:41:00

Great pixel art, and very fluid animations.
Got to the bunker after 10 tries or so.
I felt there was not enough responsiveness in controls, or maybe it was too much penalty time between jumps/slides, or maybe the obstacles generation, something feel a bit unfair (trying with 1.2).
Nice music, and the effects do the work.
Good game, I'm sure with some further improvements will become even better.

Ben Eath The Surf Ace by mess110 2014-05-08T01:08:00

Love the title, fun game.

Volleyball Moles by pjchardt 2014-05-01T14:08:00

I like the music, and the sfx, will rate it if I can find 2 more controllers.

Totems & Gods by vladimirdlc 2014-05-11T18:28:00

@pjchardt It doesn´t, but depending on player progression an speed, it may give that effect.
Glad you enjoyed the game :)

Intense Combat Underwater - ICU by Salamander3 2014-05-02T00:20:00

The camera was somehow confusing, and the game takes it's time to be understood.
Overall I think this is a nice start for your first Unity game.

Wireside by Solifuge 2014-05-02T00:09:00

The premise of the story is interesting, I found it remarkable that you got to extent on the story in a LD game.
When I found out that this was a tactics game I thought that was awesome, I would like to make one some day as well.
I got stuck after some advance and the dead of my avatar with a black screen.
The music I think needs to be a longer loop, and the controls do need some work, they're confusing at first but you have a pretty good base for a greater game in this genre.

[Work in Progress] by Jon Fischer 2014-05-04T00:04:00

Neat idea, I liked the originality on this one.
The opening animation was really fun and well made.
The gameplay, I needed some time time to grasp it, but after that I found it cool.
The mouse movement felt a little weird (but in these kind of games you will always hear complains unless you offer a lot of mouse movement customization options).
The difficulty of the puzzles sometimes feel unbalaned, and the music and sfx's were fitting.
Interesting entry, keep it up.

Sub Bomber by Rahazan 2014-05-01T03:16:00

Not my cup of tea but I enjoyed it, runs pretty smooth and the sound played gives it a good rhytim.
It feels quite polished as well, for the short amount of time invested, I can picture people getting addicted to it...
Just do the port to iOS/Android and get rich & famous!

Five little Submarines by ziege 2014-05-03T17:53:00

I seem to have problems loading this.

unnamed game with a mole by x1212 2014-05-07T16:01:00

Funny name, is a little simple, maybe too slow, but you can have fun with it, it's a nice distraction.
The art is simple as well, I would have enjoyed music, or more effects, but I understand not everyone can be a orchestra man.

Beneath the 4th wall by eemmbbeerr 2014-05-01T21:52:00

I liked the style of the game and the starting jokes, I would have loved if this had more intuitive gameplay or more clear instructions regarding the pen and paper.
Music was good, and the rainbow so out of place was indeed funny.

Sink or Swim by noom 2014-05-03T17:37:00

This is an ok little game, starts with not much action, but has its quota of fun while being contemplative at the same time.
Love the fluidity of the game, and rubbing myself against those sexy kelps...

Epilepsy by tchem 2014-05-01T14:16:00

I felt a little moved by the synergy of sounds/vfx/smoothness in the game, I liked it, nice pallete, a little confusing yes, and maybe to 'exploitable', as all the elements were coming from under you, what I made to pass it easily is just put my cursor under the character, draw a straigth line always under it, and let the dots just come.

Anterraria by Sim00n 2014-05-01T02:54:00

I loved the ambition of the game, it's quite something, but it lacks feedback to the user(more indications on UI instead of a help page) and progression, as there are several input action/processing with parallel results; albeit, after some frustation and learning, I got to enjoy it a bit.
For being your first entry and also been done in compo mode, I thougth this was quite an amazing achievement, great job.

Tick Attack by hanoth 2014-05-03T17:55:00

Playing this game makes you feel incomfortable in your own skin, that's an achievement itself. Cool first entry, really creative take on the theme.
Regarding the sound, I would have preferred softer sfx's, and on the web version there is no music.

Under a rock sky by Cash 2014-05-03T22:48:00

I liked the game, nice music. The difficulty sometimes had an strange curve, also because in some levels after you died, the falling rocks did not appeared again.
The graphics work well, the controls I did found them weird at the beggining, and would have rather always run instead of pressing S.

The Devil's Magnificent Return by davidc02 2014-04-30T03:08:00

Short, but pure placebo, I love the art, and the music is perfect for the game.
I would have preferred if there were more feedback regarding states of harmed creatures, or when they harmed you.
GG

Escave! by Simon@LD 2014-05-01T03:50:00

Cool game! I enjoyed this thoroughly.
It would had been a nice touch some music effects, I liked the idea of overlapping 'towers', the graphics were functional, but can be improved, specially the GUI.
After all, pretty solid and fun entry.

Cardumen by jotaSe 2014-04-30T15:39:00

I liked the idea, cool implementation of a new framework as pandajs, the game is a bit ugly thought haha, I would have loved at least a little of audio.
Looking forward to your improved versions.

Elemental Serpent by Lafie 2014-05-05T18:41:00

Interesting take on mixing classic mechanics, I would have liked at least some effects even from sfxr, the snake control was maybe too quick, I also found it really cool that you used a fairly new engine such as Godot, kudos.

Here's Dirt in Your Eye by BeeintheCarGames 2014-05-02T16:29:00

Quite curious narrative, great interpretation of the theme! I found it fun, although the dialogue interface was a little raw, it served it purpose.
Music and sound would have added more to the spooky touch, but the game works well even without it.

Dark Maze Escape by A.W. Apps 2014-05-01T21:54:00

I liked the random generation aspect of the game, but it needs tweaking, some iterations I felt just went too hard or impossible.
If you give the player at least a different color from the walls it would be much less confusing.

A bit dark by Havoc91 2014-05-11T18:36:00

That was dark... I liked the idea of light/sanity, it somehow reminded me the cthulhu mythos. I would have liked at least some of wind blowing to give it more atmosphere.

Aqua Nick in Deep Sea Danger by Bad Dog Studios 2014-05-01T14:40:00

Would have been nice to have an indication of the crown goal in the beggining at the start or when boarding the boat (Thanks for playing.. but you didn't get the crown)
I am not sure if the sharks did killed me, or did they have issues with the collisions, some deads near sharks seemed random...

The restart on any finish, or gameover, was a little too harsh on the player, it's far better to leave that decision to the player, for when they had enough of your game.

Anyway, I had fun, and I also got the crown! :)

Under the Hood by Red Light Collective 2014-04-30T15:36:00

Fun game, the art is nice, the music and sound seems fitting, just to add that the scale of the difficulty seems a little rough, some deads to me seemed a little too sudden.

Infection by InfectionTeam 2014-05-01T16:12:00

Pretty rad, the art style of the game is awesome, nice particles and shader, the music and sfx are cool, making all an overall good mix. I liked the interpretation of the theme as well.
I would have enjoyed a more clear variation in the enemy types and models. A little nice touch would have been to rotate the character when pointing with the mouse.
The infection mechanic is a little confusing (I'm not even sure if you could die just from infections), but, after all, I quite enjoyed the game, great entry!

Gravity by jsmars 2014-05-18T21:35:00

Amazing entry! Difficulty feels at the start a little unfair, and the level generation feels unfair as well... at least while you get used to the gameplay.
The post jam fixes were just what this game needed to be flawless, definetely one of the best compo entries I have ever played.

ACME by cobhc6 2014-05-17T23:05:00

That was fun, I liked a lot the art, there seemed to be issues with the colliders and the controls seem a little off, but is an enjoyable 2p game.

LD31 — Entire Game on One Screen

Snowman Escape by vladimirdlc 2014-12-09T04:16:00

Sorry guys, seems there was an issue with the upload, should be up alredy.

Creative Defense by sharp911 2014-12-09T05:36:00

I found it fun, classic yeah, but fun. Thanks for letting me know about the issues in my entry.

Dash Dash Die by ProteinPannkaka 2014-12-09T06:06:00

Quiter hardcore, my reaction time wasn't enough. I at least had one kill.
Loved the visuals I think it used nicely the theme.
Thanks for letting me know the issues loading my project btw.

LD33 — You are the Monster

Hungry Waters by MAnimal 2015-08-24T12:40:00

As I got the hang of it I enjoyed it, Also found a bit funny the dark humor in the game.
Btw, when you mean "hold a key" you mean "press a key", because as I see that should be the way you check for keypress (Input.GetKeyDown(keycode))
Congrats on your first LD! :D
