LD56 — Tiny Creatures

Fusion Quest by Ntimi 2024-10-17T02:49:44Z

A really cool puzzle platformer! My one gripe is that the platforming feels a bit heavy, but that might just be personal preference. The audiovisual vibes are very cool in this one as well

Creatures of the abyss by kumber 2024-10-20T14:35:36Z

Those fish come out fast, I got spooked the first time! Nice work here, especially for just getting started with Godot. I wish you sank a little bit faster to allow for better mobility down as well as up, but still enjoyed it!

The Battle Of The Pixels by elZach 2024-10-20T14:46:13Z

This was really ambitious for a game jam game, and it turned out really cool! I was a little lazy with my design, but it was hilarious to see these smiley faces beating up other creatures

The Noir Library by Jeffez 2024-10-14T11:16:27Z

Love the literature theme! A great first foray into point and click games

Among The Deep by Langotriel 2024-10-10T23:47:18Z

Great game! Fits the theme, game was easy to figure out and fun to play. Impressed with a game of this scale made in a weekend.

Aaaa!! by tolja 2024-10-20T14:32:24Z

So exciting to see a pico-8 game! I honestly didn't even realize you could grab the creatures, I just ran around shooting the red guys haha. I think there's a lot of opportunity here to modulate the difficulty if you wanted to build on this, maybe with having more red guys come out at once, or having the little green ones wander farther afield. But a great start!

Time to Smash by zubspace 2024-10-20T14:38:47Z

I was thinking "man, this is fun but I wish there were a few more bugs to swat" and then it sped up :D simple but incredibly effective! This would make such a great mobile game, and I loved the contrast between the cute little creatures and the blood splats afterwards.

Ant war! by nikor 2024-10-17T02:59:19Z

I love that this is almost educational and lets people experiment with JS a bit, a really interesting game!

Bugtallion by goodwincek 2024-10-21T11:16:41Z

I had SO much fun with this! The sound and visuals were really engaging and I really enjoyed building my army and taking down the other side \\(^_^)/ Would love to see what this could become with more polish, maybe a smarter enemy - I was able to take out 6hp by parking right next to the queen without the other side targeting me at all. But for jam game, no complaints!

Creature's Place by vjta088x 2024-10-20T14:43:08Z

I've never been good at sudoku :sweat_smile: but this is a very cool take on both that and the theme! I love the art style as well

tiny Accident by Rito 2024-10-11T17:50:35Z

Good fun! Would be nice if the controls were a little less sensitive because it was so easy to slip and then lose your place in the maze. Would be nice to have some indication I failed when I ran into the ant.

Beelzebub's Curse: Double Barrel Breakout by Kabura 2024-10-17T02:54:23Z

What a slick game! Loved the visuals and music and mechanics, everything came together really well

ppl. Converter by Rezistor 2024-10-17T03:11:54Z

Really evocative, a cool spooky take on the theme!

Formuroll by Utopia 2024-10-14T11:22:03Z

The graphics and audio support the game really nicely, and it's a novel idea - great job!

Hamster Shelter by Doonutsaur 2024-10-11T17:46:57Z

This game is so cute and I love that it runs in the background so it's a game you can just leave and have your little hamsters do the work. Graphics are cute and I could see this being a larger puzzle game at some point. Great job!

Catch The Creatures by Dan_Nik_SG 2024-10-17T02:45:18Z

Really like the animations and overall art design! Catching the creatures was fun, but would have appreciated a more solid direction or indication of how to progress through the game. Nice work :)

Keyba by arColm 2024-10-07T19:45:58Z

I'm not sure if it was a problem with my keyboard but I couldn't get out of the first level. I was able to get one of the higher dust bunnies but no combination I tried could get me the second.

Art, animation, music, and vibes are all awesome. I just wish I could've gotten further in the game!

Taste Tour -- A Wonderful Adventure of a Tiny Little Toast by ShallowKong 2024-10-21T10:58:00Z

Beautiful visuals! I think most people have covered some of the suggestions I would mention, but one thing I did notice that the menu screen stayed superimposed during the opening cutscene

Alice's Tiny Adventure by Weird Orb 2024-10-21T10:47:00Z

@oliver-day Thanks for the feedback! > At one point when the guard turned around an I was behind him he somehow got carried with me when I moved then got stuck against a wall trying to go in the same direction. Is that the intentional behaviour?

Not intentional, nope - definitely something we'd love to have polished up with a bit more time :)

MindControl by Righteousz 2024-10-20T14:40:53Z

Interesting mechanics! I had a little difficulty with understanding when you could switch players and found the jumping a little floaty, but otherwise a cool game

Micecape by umnatz 2024-10-17T03:05:16Z

Cool puzzle game! The mouse sometimes seems to get stuck and loop around in place for a while, but it's a really neat idea

The cylinder invasion: You better be in good shape by Riv 2024-10-17T03:02:08Z

Cool tower defense take, I liked the Daleks :)
