Awesome job with the one arrow theme. I tried that myself, but I like your implementation a lot better.

Great mood in this game. Found it tough to figure out what was a shelter though.
Wow. I loved this game. Good job!
Really good job with the theme. Liked your game immensely.
Great job!
Don't really understand how I'm supposed to control this. Sound is pretty nice.
Hard but really cool. I really liked the force-field mechanic on defense.
Awesome job with the theme! Very hard with trackpad!
3400! This game would be great ported over to mobile. Really enjoyed it.
Bravo! Last level is tough!
Nice job with the theme. Really hard! Especially with a trackpad.
Really tough to get into, but pretty good once you get into it.
Very good idea with the theme. Lighting is really nice. Audio was very well done as well. Good job all around!
The mouse controls are very touchy for me
On the first level, the ship sprite didn't load. But every level after it, the ship loaded just fine. I was trying it on OSX with Chrome if that helps.
Anyways, I enjoyed it! I liked the timer, as it made me want to speed-run the entire thing just to finish it as fast as I could. Well done! I also really enjoyed the time lapse too!
Very soothing. I left it open for a while while I was doing other stuff just for the music!
I really liked this. Found myself cursing at the other players when they beat my by a few blocks. Nice work!
Took me a while to understand what I was supposed to do. My first game I was just smashing pixels onto the bunny and didn't understand why he was giving me a frowning face!
My second try though was much more successful, until the bunny jumped right in front of me when I completed it!
I liked this self discovery process, and was very happy you put in a quick restart button :). Nicely done. Congrats on finishing!
I had a lot of fun with this. Really gives my clicking finger a workout!
I found myself enjoying this a lot. Would have liked a High Score or something to see how I did compared to my previous attempts.
I kept cursing Willy every time he went the wrong way after climbing a ladder
Took me a while to understand what the blue blob did, but once I got it, the rest of the game fell into place. One thing that might have been nice was having two buttons, one to place the blue blob and one to place the green. I didn't realize they were both getting placed right away.
Can't enter my name on OSX Chrome
Very well done. Fit the theme perfectly, great graphics, awesome sound.
This is one of the best games I've played this Ludum Dare batch. Well done!
@stahlmanDesign Thanks for playing my game! Pico-8 (pico-8.com) is a "fantasy console" that I used to make my game. It's currently in alpha, and it costs $15 to download. It has built-in code, sprite, map, sfx, and music editors. While it costs some money to download, and it's in alpha, it's extremely well polished and an enjoyable experience to make a game with. I highly encourage others to give it a shot!
I didn't realize right away that I had to mouse over to the sides of the screen to observe the entire battlefield. Story driven games aren't particularly my cup of tea, but I really enjoyed the mood and graphical style of this game.
Very fun take on an infinite runner
Visually, there's a lot going on. Was kind of difficult for me to see where the daughter was in the crowds.
This is really hard with a laptop trackpad! Like the idea though, enjoyed it.
Love the simplicity of this. Sounds are great!
Enemies seemed to clump up along the right wall for me. Used it to my advantage by getting multi-kills when they would hit a corner and then turn towards the left :)
The risk/reward gameplay is pretty fun!
Absolutely love the graphics! I personally love high score games, and this one fit the bill nicely.
Good idea. Fits the theme very well. Some parts were harder to figure out than the others, but overall I enjoyed it.
Also, the slurp noise when you eat an adventurer is amazing.
Interesting concept! As far as gameplay, I'm not really motivated to move my ship around, as shooting straight ahead with very minor movements will keep me safe.
Took me a bit to figure out that the poses required me to have the belt (I try to just play the game first and read directions only when needed :)). Once I figured that out, the gameplay was pretty good. Really liked how is ramped up in difficulty.
