LD43 — Sacrifices must be made

Fix by harark 2018-12-05T18:59:23Z

I'm kind lost on this game, i don't get what i'm supposed to do here. I gave all my coins to something which said i would discover something about myself but i discovered nothing. I like the graphics and the music, and the mystery in the game, but there are a lot of little flaws that should be fixed:

There is usually a ceiling directly above the place where you should jump, which makes platforming difficult. Also sometimes when i'm trying to jump by using space, the game decides that instead of trying to jump for the coin above me, i wanted to interact with the thing near me.

Camera movement makes me dizzy, platforming is difficult in this game so i will have to try the jump many times, which means i will be pressing A and D a lot when i'm moving around, but everytime i change the direction of my movement, the camera moves a lot. Also the blackholes cause large weird camera shake.

Just fix those, and it could be a very interesting game!

Not Safe for Teamwork by bradur 2018-12-06T10:40:09Z

Fun game, reminds me a lot of portal's co op. Music fits this really well, it feels like some sort of elevator music, very calm anyway. Level design is cool too, but sometimes i'd like to see all the characters at the same time, because sometimes the levels are so large, that when switching characters, i don't know where i am anymore. Great work!

The M.O.N.K. by arkiruthis 2018-12-04T19:37:03Z

Graphics look great! Music is very good though, but i'm kinda confused on how to play this. But it's still fun and innovative

GunGuy by Luis Giron 2018-12-03T19:58:30Z

This is a really cool idea, great graphics and the game works well too. Sometimes there are weird stuff happening, like that i can't see the enemy when it is behind the falling lava, so i just bump into it because i don't know it is there. The music and sound is great too!

The Temple of Falala by JCMonkey 2018-12-04T15:54:30Z

This is fun to play, but sometimes it gets a bit tedious. Graphics and music is really good though!

The Saver by dunin 2018-12-05T14:29:49Z

Cool graphics, and innovative concept! Controls are weird sometimes, but not too bad. Also this game fits the theme very well!

Dot, The Wanderer by rplnt 2018-12-03T15:58:48Z

I like the exploration aspect of this, but sometimes i get stuck in places because i lose so many hearts because of the red dots, and cant move anywhere because i am surrounded by them. But this is still a fun game.

Antibody by crazyrems 2018-12-03T15:16:37Z

I love the aesthetic of this game. The game was a bit confusing at first, i thought i was supposed to hit the red blobs with myself, but then i understood that i had to attack the green blob. My only real complaint, is that when you have these "cave" mazes which you have to navigate without touching the walls, the controlls are really bad for that. Maybe if you could move the triangle with the mouse it would be less tedious?

Head Spin Builder - Sacrifice Edition! by meursault 2018-12-03T20:36:53Z

Very interesting game, good graphics and sound, also is fun to play. Sometimes the game is kinda confusing though :D

Eradicator by Linky439 2018-12-03T17:18:40Z

The game works really well, and it's fun to play! Music and graphics all are great. I don't really know how to avoid killing innocents, as the streets are so crowded.

C'est la vie by MrJackhpil 2018-12-03T15:54:31Z

This is fun to play and works well, but i don't really get what the point of the energy drinks are.

Guardians of Lalaland by blanky 2018-12-03T15:09:32Z

I played this, and you explained the lore, but there was no sort of guide on how to play the game. There is just two buttons which i don't understand what they do. Also i don't really know how this fits the "sacrifices must be made" theme, when you are trying to avert sacrifices.

$Player Disconnected by Bomb-X 2018-12-05T19:45:20Z

Very interesting story, the sound and graphics also give it a great atmosphere. Really fun, and different from others. I don't have really anything negative to say about this, other than sometimes the glitching of the text was slightly annoying, as i was trying to read the text, but it was a cool effect. Maybe if it wasn't so common as it is now, it'd be better?

Blood For Blood Gods by KonH 2018-12-04T19:48:43Z

Controls are kinda weird and slow, but the graphics are good, and it's fun to play too. Also this is a very interesting idea for a game!

Don't worry about the ballast by mortus 2018-12-04T18:33:44Z

Interesting idea, and it is fun to play and works smoothly. I like the graphics a lot. There are some bugs though. Sometimes there is an area that i can't get past, in upper screen there was a strong wind that didn't let me go through, below it there were storm clouds, below those another wind against me, and below that mountains that i couldn't go through, Also on the other side there was the police so i couldn't get through. But when it works, it's fun to play.

Blood for Magic by julianeder33 2018-12-05T18:27:36Z

Now this is a cool idea, but the mouse is too slow and the god guy was filling the screen all the time when giving instructions and obstructing gameplay. Also all the dinos kept jumping into the water so it was really frustrating to catch them. I also don't get why this had to be on a planet, it just makes it more difficult to play, this could have very well been a top down 2d game. Anyway: here's what i like -innovative -controls are good, apart from the mouse sensitivity -graphics actually aren't too bad. Good work!

Get down Mr President! by GenericToast 2018-12-03T17:23:58Z

It's a fun game, even though the idea is not very original. Fits the teme very well, music is good, and it's fun and easy to play. Good job!

LLAMAGEDDDON! by andrewl 2018-12-03T16:03:43Z

The controls are a bit weird, the movement of the llama slows when it is near the pointer.

Sacrifice in Space by Marc Grabow 2018-12-04T19:42:07Z

I like the graphics and particle effects :D Very innovative, and also controls work very smoothly. But yeah, this needs some sort of keyboard shortcuts!

Titan Ceremony by alec 2018-12-03T15:47:34Z

I like the art, and the game is really fun to play! I think it would benefit from having a short guide in the beginning because i was really confused at first on what i was supposed to do.

Stacky by StLunatick 2018-12-04T20:48:55Z

Fun game, i really like the idea. The game works well, is fun to play, the graphics and sound are good, the jump sound is really loud and holding space on a wall makes a really awful and loud sound. Some times the level design is a bit weird when you can't do anything but jump to your dead because all the stackies are dead.

Slime Venture by MRUniverse 2018-12-03T15:05:15Z

This is a pretty good game, and i like the innovative mechanics most, but the controls were a bit weird sometimes. Still, i had fun playing it and would have played more of it if there were more levels. I think this game mostly needs a bit more polish, better graphics(the slimes are now just squares?) and some sort of music.

The Sunday Massacre by Ziamor 2018-12-04T15:57:40Z

Really cool graphics, and the game is very interesting. It's fun to play too!

Elemental Storm by BenBurgh 2018-12-03T15:33:36Z

I really liked this game. It fit the theme perfectly and the mix of 2d and 3d in this game works really well. I also like how the game is also a story. The controls are kinda weird sometimes, as my character just freezes sometimes.

x by ericm 2018-12-03T19:49:55Z

The game seems fun, but i'm stuck on the second level because i can't reach the exit door. The controls are great, the graphics and screenshake are also cool. The game needs some music though.

Queuest by MateusBoga 2018-12-03T20:17:09Z

Really fun game, i just like getting cornered by a million spiders and just playing a lute till i die. Why can't you wear the tophat though? Great graphics, great music,great idea and great implementation. The enemies are just a bit too tough to beat, as they are as fast as you and it takes time to turn to face them, then attack them. Seriously, the lute makes this game so much better than it would be without :D!

Stolen Soul by Marcial 2018-12-04T17:41:42Z

I like the graphics, especially the color palette is very well picked. Music is great too. The controls work mostly well and smoothly, as does the camera movement. What i don't like: -Attack is too slow -In the beginning of the game there are these spikes that go up, but they are very difficult to spot, and if i land on one, i am flung in to the air, and i land on it again, and then i land on the one behind it and i die and am given no chance to not die. Also every time i respawn a text pops up for some time and i can't skip it.

Viking Snow Fight by Trevor Hayes 2018-12-04T21:01:33Z

Super fun game, especially the ending of the level. Great graphics and sound too. I don't like how you cant throw snowballs over your allies though.

Kamikaze Kevin by Bit 2018-12-05T13:58:19Z

Why is it victory, if you have 0 points? The only way to lose this game is to be killed by the rabbits, but it will never happen because you can just explode yourself:D? Anyway, the game works well, looks good, and is funny.

Cowboy Hell by dk5000p 2018-12-05T14:26:36Z

I like the idea, but as a game it doesn't function that well, as the actual gameplay is just spamming the roll button. Also you can just like decrease health by 50 in the start and add 50 to speed and no one can touch you. But it's a fun, innovative game with quality voice acting:D !

the big bad burger (browser playable) by nik2434 2018-12-04T19:40:47Z

Some levels can be won just by holding space, i think jumping is too slow too. Also music is pretty repetive but it's a functional platforming game.

Volcano Fling by Barrier 2018-12-05T06:20:29Z

Very cool game mechanic. This would need some sound, but the graphics are nice. Maybe clicking on the villagers and fireballs should be easier?

Sacrificial Fruit by Koltonix 2018-12-03T18:50:41Z

Great idea, and the implementation is pretty good as well, I like the graphics, but the controls are sometimes a bit difficult.

Skeleton Key by Zigg 2018-12-05T13:30:15Z

I like the graphics, music and the general atmosphere the most. I don't really get the puzzle part. From what i understood, i am supposed to find weird red blobs, interact with them and then go to the place where there is purple light? Also when i did a major sacrifice of a leg, when i had to do a minor sacrifice, it seemed as if i had sacrificed an arm. But the game works well. Good job!

Out Of Power by Mathis BRESSAUD 2018-12-05T19:35:15Z

Amazing music and graphics, and these are very important as they keep me from wanting to skip everything! Gameplay and the sacrificing is very cool and works well, as does the level design. But i found that you can just sacrifice everything, as long as you don't sacrifice the double jump, most levels you can usually just speed past by spamming double jump, it's so fast no one can touch you. Great work anyway!

Gift of Life by Pez 2018-12-03T20:39:16Z

Really good graphics, but the gameplay is confusing and jittery sometimes.

thacrifaazth by s4m4di 2018-12-05T14:17:45Z

Really fun game and amazing graphics, but i agree with others, this is like too fast and "clickety". Great work though!

PuzCol (Solo) by harshyyness 2018-12-05T13:34:57Z

The atmosphere is really great. The game is so short though! I like the game mechanics, but the jumping has an annoying cool down, which annoys me when i have to wait 2 seconds on every platform till i can do my next move. Great game though, would have liked to play more.

My best friend by ShenDev 2018-12-05T14:22:16Z

Super fun and innovative! Controls are a bit off though, especially jumping. Also the tutorial, while it is really well made and helpful, sometimes restrict doing some things. Like i had figured out that i had to drag henry to the spikes, i couldn't do that until the tutorial told me to. Also the collision with the crushing wall sometimes worked weirdly. Great job though!

Dark by alex-1024 2018-12-03T18:46:26Z

The aesthetics are nice, i just don't understand how this is a game. From what i understand, you have to choose one "princess" which you tow to the top of the screen.

My metro by Nearpit 2018-12-03T15:21:38Z

I really like the graphics of this game. The music clip is a bit too short and repetetive though. The game idea was actually pretty creative too.

I'M DESPERATE TO KILL THESE BEEZ by Arty 2018-12-05T18:46:31Z

Fun game, gameplay works well apart from the controls,graphics and music is good. No music button, and esc to return to menu doesn't work and also this game doesn't work on every resolution, or windowed mode. About the controls, i think it would be a lot better if the movement was about 4 times slower. Also sometimes the player get's stuck on the wall. But this game is well made, good job on it!

Meaningless dungeon by Ethan Losten 2018-12-03T20:35:15Z

The random generation doesn't work that well always. Also the controls are not always that good. It's a fun game though, and you got a lot done in 48 hours.

Minotaur Maitre D by Steve Moore 2018-12-04T18:28:05Z

Game works well and smoothly, and is fun to play. Maybe it would need better graphics, and some music. Also maybe there could be some sort of power ups to make the gameplay more interesting

A dangerous situation not to wear shoes in by wie_ 2018-12-03T15:23:05Z

I don't know where to host it though.

A dangerous situation not to wear shoes in by wie_ 2018-12-03T15:44:11Z

Thanks for the comments! I now have a web version up too! @folex70

A dangerous situation not to wear shoes in by wie_ 2018-12-03T16:08:05Z

@justalocalhero thanks for telling me, fixed now!

A dangerous situation not to wear shoes in by wie_ 2018-12-03T16:33:56Z

@justalocalhero Thanks for the advice. If i'll continue working on this game, i'll implement those. I just didn't have time to do it :D

A dangerous situation not to wear shoes in by wie_ 2018-12-03T17:53:18Z

I'll try to fix the anvil thing now :D

A dangerous situation not to wear shoes in by wie_ 2018-12-03T17:58:34Z

I fixed the anvil bug now, but only for the web version.

A dangerous situation not to wear shoes in by wie_ 2018-12-03T18:19:37Z

Thanks for the comments, made the web version a bit easier.

A dangerous situation not to wear shoes in by wie_ 2018-12-03T19:36:18Z

@wdelvi Oh, i had accidentally removed music from the game sorry, i'll add it back. Thanks for telling me!

A dangerous situation not to wear shoes in by wie_ 2018-12-03T19:42:25Z

@wdelvi Sound is back on now!

A dangerous situation not to wear shoes in by wie_ 2018-12-03T20:12:02Z

@vinzBad weird, i don't have this kind of a problem in the web version. At least not the mouse resetting.

A dangerous situation not to wear shoes in by wie_ 2018-12-03T20:57:31Z

I finally realized what the problem is with people having difficulties clicking on stuff, you have to be a certain distance close to the item to click it, and that distance is too small! (maybe i fixed it now :D)

A dangerous situation not to wear shoes in by wie_ 2018-12-04T20:22:04Z

@cincerteri There is a guide button in the bottom right which tells you how to kill the skeletons, but maybe it's kinda hidden.

A dangerous situation not to wear shoes in by wie_ 2018-12-05T09:14:43Z

@ethan-losten Thanks for the suggestion, will look into that.

A dangerous situation not to wear shoes in by wie_ 2018-12-06T10:18:56Z

@bradur Losing the sword when tossing it is the "sacrificing" part, as you have to plan ahead, what you sell, and what sword do you use for protecting yourself. Thanks for the comment!

A dangerous situation not to wear shoes in by wie_ 2018-12-08T07:01:58Z

@ente You can place rhe iron in the stack, i just forgot to add it to the tutirual :D

Runaway Bus by TheGameDev 2018-12-04T08:52:48Z

Interesting game, but i think instead of the game ending when running over 3 civilians, it should just like affect your end score, as now it is very difficult to not run over civilians. Graphics are good though and controls work well. I just would like to play this a bit more, but it is so difficult to not die in this game.

Passage Home by Fnissalot 2018-12-04T10:19:20Z

I don't understand how i'm supposed to get to the finish line, but the game works well and smoothly. Maybe if the game was a bit more fast paced it'd be fun.

Lighter Than Air by simon.parzer 2018-12-05T06:17:31Z

The game is very fun to play, and the gfx and sound are really good! This is very innovative too, but at first the controls are a bit confusing. Great job!

Flying Farmer by relixes 2018-12-04T10:10:04Z

Graphics look amazing and is really fun to play too. Great job!

Jultomten 2 by r1sc 2018-12-03T16:11:04Z

This was fun playing! But when i first played it, it was weird that first there were no kids everywhere, then a billion kids appear on the screen.

LD44 — Your life is currency

RogueLife by Gipzo 2019-04-30T12:40:20Z

I like playing the game a lot, the ugprades are innovative and fun, exploring the level is fun as is combat. These are some of the flaws: At first it was unclear that i was supposed to go into the corridors, i thought that the blue lights were enemy spawnpoints. The player's orientation is not always towards the mouse, if mouse doesn't move and the player moves, but this is rarely a problem. It is difficult to know, what amount of damage the enemies deal, so i got one shot by one enemy even though i had 10 hearts, because i didn't know, how much damage the enemy would deal. It's a really fun game though!

Conway's Currency by klianc09 2019-04-30T15:19:08Z

It's a very interesting game. I like the colourful graphics, reminds me of old arcade games. The inventory management is a cool idea, but it's a bit unclear, how it works. If i understand correctly, you are supposed to put the coins in your inventory, and every time you move, the coins play conway's game of life? So i'm supposed to make it so, that conway's game of life doesn't delete my coins right? I don't remember the rules of conway's game of life, so all my coins just disappear really fast. Also enemies kill you really fast, and i don't really know how to fight them or dodge their attacks.

Oligarch by Thirsty 2019-04-30T15:24:17Z

I like the cinematic start. Controls are ok, level design could be more linear, now i don't really know what my goal is and where i should go. Combat is awkward and i don't know how to increase the bar in the top left corner. Also, what are the yellow leaves that the human throw at you when you shoot them? kinda confusing but some parts are pretty enjoyable

Malroot Gentleman by josehzz 2019-04-30T14:44:49Z

I like the game, it's fun to play. Ofc it would need more polish, but it's actually fun and satisfying to play, i like the screen shake effect. I suggest that you make the jump less intense, but add a double jump, so the player will not get annoyed by accidentally running off a cliff :D

ShellShark! by Yngvarr 2019-04-30T16:41:08Z

I like the setting, but the card game itself has some flaws. At first it was difficult to understand, what was going on. I did learn, but i found myself just putting the strongest creatures i had to any empty slot, which i think is a smart move but it makes the game less fun. Not enough action cards, i mostly had only multiples of the same creature in my deck, so there wasn't much choice

Loose Change by Tony Li 2019-04-30T12:51:29Z

The web version of the game loads very slowly. Controls are good, but i would like to be able to move the player even when jumping, because for example now you can't jump over boxes without getting some speed, and that is a bit annoying. It's difficult to know what hurts you and what doesn't, i just landed on a branch and almost died. I like the graphics and sound though, and it's an innovative platformer with cool and fresh level design!

Rising Dawn - First Blood: It's Brunchtime by AfroAnt 2019-04-30T16:34:47Z

The tutorial is good, and helps learn the game without reading lots of text. Gameplay is interesting and sometimes solving the problems is fun, but sometimes i just don't understand what i'm supposed to do. Graphics and sound are nice though

Vumpires: Night of the Bat-men by SeiferTim 2019-04-30T12:34:40Z

I like the graphics and sound, but the controls are very awkward. First of all, you have to use S/D to move left and right, instead of A/D like in the instructions. Also using z x and c is difficult while also using S/D. Character stops when swinging bat, which is annoying. Also the enemies attack far too fast, leaving no time to react. It seems i only got the enemies killed when they had already killed me and I had a little bit of invincibility

wArshippers by giu.zcc 2019-04-30T16:29:06Z

Same problem as Greenboxgames, did the developers playtest this?

wArshippers by giu.zcc 2019-04-30T16:51:30Z

No, only one controller, maybe you could write it somewhere, that you need more controllers?

Pricelist by Lamossus 2019-04-30T12:45:50Z

Very interesting game. The strategy elements are good and well done. I think the game needs two things the most. One is a tutorial level, because I don't want to read an essay on how to play. The other is that the game has to be faster. I don't want to follow every move of every enemy unit, just so i could play another turn.

Necroxeon by Lyrcaxis 2019-04-30T17:48:05Z

@eric-smith Thanks for the feedback, I understand your points :D The fire stream is actually hitting them, you just have to fire it on the same enemies for a while. Raising dead and draining life are different mechanics, draining life is the spell with the blue icon :)

Super soul wipeout by Korteh 2019-04-30T14:14:34Z

Love the graphics, but there is at least one game breaking bug. The player's z position doesn't change, he is always hovering above the walls and levels, so he can't kill anyone, but he can just walk out of the map. So the game is unplayable at least for me now. Edit: restarting the game fixed it Edit2: i found the problem, there is no gravity, and in the spawn area there is a slope that you can go up. Once your up you can't go down.

Super soul wipeout by Korteh 2019-04-30T14:19:09Z

At this point the game isn't really a challenge. The enemies drop so much souls that you can just continuosly fire, and easily dodge the enemies, and collect the souls. Maybe if the attacks had cooldown, and you could choose from a variety if attacks, it would be more fun?

Dadiator by Ametentia 2019-04-30T14:36:40Z

Cool idea for a game, first it was pretty confusing but i understood it quickly. Fighting is too easy, i don't need weapons because i can just push the enemy into the corner and spam left and right click, even in hard difficulty.

EXO by Firesplash Entertainment 2019-04-30T17:07:53Z

Cool game, graphics and sound are nice and make the game feel scary. There are some bugs, like the guns firing at dead bodies. Is it possible to regenerate health? that would be a good feature. Once you have your guns set up, you just have to wait until you die, as the player can't really fight on his own, that's kinda boring.

Clock of Your Life by JestemStefan 2019-04-30T12:56:54Z

I like the game. The atmosphere is great thanks to the music and sounds. It can be improved though: Right now it's too difficult, but maybe life is lol. I just would like to be able to play longer, but i always die in about 3 days. It's not always clear what each option will result in, also i think sleep and overstrain should be combined, because the difference between those is a bit unclear.

Love, Death&Swords by Dmitry Kaidash 2019-04-30T13:38:18Z

Graphics are great, and i like the controls and level design a lot. Attacking is sometimes difficult, you cant change camera angle and you can't attack an enemy that is obstructed from the camera by player. The gameplay is a bit boring though, maybe add some archer units, and more abilities for the player. Also if the levels were more linear, it would be more fun.

Soulbound by Dovakla 2019-04-30T17:26:44Z

I like the graphics/art style and sound, reminds me of old runescape versions. The game is buggy, at the start of a game i tried to talk to an npc, but couldn't leave the talking screen, also the text box clipped with a house, so i couldn't see all the text. Later i realised that this was because i was using another resolution than the default and the buttons were hidden. The accepting and rejecting contracts is a very interesting and fresh mechanic, but I didn't bother reading the huge textboxes, because i really didn't understand what all the things there mean. The attack screen works well, though it's a bit messy sometimes.

Lifeforms In Space by Eric Smith 2019-04-30T18:09:32Z

Very cool and interesting game! It would need some polishing, but it is enjoyable. The battles are very well made, but it would be nice if you could skip them, as they become a bit boring after a while, because if i understood right, i can't change anything in the battle, so i'm just waiting :D BTW hex grids FTW

NEKOBELLUM by Tozzo4316 2019-04-30T16:50:04Z

I played on easy difficulty, and even though i bought life steal in the beginning, i couldn't get enough hp to buy anything. Combat feels good though, i would like there to be more variety in the attacks the player can do. The screen shake effect is good and makes fighting feel more responsive. Graphics are ok, music is pretty annoying really.

King's Alchemist by Vlad Dae 2019-04-30T16:57:18Z

Fun game, good graphics, good concept, easy to learn. The game does get repetitive after a while, maybe you could unlock potions and spells, so the player would feel like he is progressing. Also, sound would be really nice and make the atmosphere better.

100 leaves by neverix 2019-04-30T13:48:11Z

I like the idea, but as others said, the upper branches don't really serve a purpose. The controls are pretty weird, i think that left and right arrow keys should expand the branch, and up and down change the angle. I actually liked the story and it was pretty fun to play, the controls are just a bit awkward.

Stars Keeper by zuick 2019-04-30T14:51:30Z

Love the graphics and the prologue! Controls are awkward though, i think if the ship flew towards the mouse cursor, it would be easier to aim and dodge attacks. Also adding a life bar would be very helpful :D

Life Pact by jaoel 2019-04-30T15:04:42Z

It's a great shooter, feels really good to play. Level design isn't always that good, i'm not always sure where i'm supposed to go etc. There was some spikes on the ground, but i thought it was a normal floor tile, because it didn't look like spikes at all so that was kinda annoying. But I really like the combat in this game.

Garden of Earthly Relics by toki-anholmes 2019-04-30T13:45:27Z

The title flashes a lot, and sorry but it's a horrible way to start a game, by flashing some psychedelic text on the screen. Too much chromatic aberration, text is difficult to read. The tutorial is a good idea and well executed, but the text is really hard to read, and the text doesn't tell me how to do things, it just says: "you can plant the seed" but i don't know where and how. So the game looks like it's innovative and could be fun, but i'm stuck in the tutorial in the "You can sell it too" part, i don't know how to continue from that

I don't get it, what's the goal? Graphics and mood are nice, i think i'm just supposed to put the food in the dude's mouth, and i can rip his skin off and touch his eyes. Looks cool, but it's not that fun, as there are no goals, and the gameplay is a bit boring and slow, and controls can be tedious

Devil's Dirty Work​ by Sinitax 2019-04-30T17:16:31Z

Controls are pretty bad, the game commands me to press space, but that just makes me jump into lava. I later learned that i can use the grappling hook, but it handled awkwardly, and was difficult to control. Music, sound and level design are good though!

Abstractio by loyance 2019-10-06T23:04:45Z

Great sound design, striking graphics and art style, and an amazing atmosphere. Controls are easy to understand and innovative, as are the mechanics. However, I'm not sure if I have understood the point of the game. I think that the player is supposed to figure out, what elements to combine. I just clicked the assembler again and again, until the assembler showed me, what to combine, and I think that took some of the fun of figuring it out again. Even then, I think the main gameplay mechanic, combining boxes and discovery of new elements should be expanded upon more, as right now, it doesn't feel that fun, but it has a great mood anyway.

Marooned by whooshy 2019-10-06T23:09:49Z

Graphics are great and vibrant, and the sound design is good too. The island seems to be procedurally generated, and is fun to explore. Unfortunately, right now it seems I can't progress in the game, as I can't gather resources, so I guess that's a bug. Anyway, my first impression was positive! :D

You Start With Nothing - Ludum Dare 45 Game by HappySnake 2019-10-07T10:02:08Z

First of all, the title could be a bit more original :D. Nice and atmospheric graphics and sound design, although the quality of the graphics is variable, for example, the player's hand look bad, but the environment looks nice. I like the exploration elements, although I am confused on what I'm supposed to eat. I think the items should have icons, so you know what a sap might look like, so they would be easier to find, and would avoid confusion. I do agree, that the player gets cold a bit too fast. Also, if the terrain wasn't flat, the game world would be a lot more immersive½

Welcome to Nowhere by AdroitConceptions 2019-10-06T23:34:14Z

I like the concept of gathering abilities in the levels, and I think you should expand on that and add new abilities to find, of which some would be very hidden and powerful. Controls are mostly fine, but lining up some jumps is difficult, because you can't control the jump's height. Graphics are clear, and music is, well interesting :D, but it gives it a different and distinctive feeling.

Ludum Dare 45 by Trypants 2019-10-07T10:17:18Z

This game has an interesting concept, and cool graphics and sound design. It seems tho, that the music doesn't loop, so that should be fixed. The movement system is super confusing, maybe movement should work on clicking on tiles instead. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do in the game, but it sure has potential. The game seems a bit unfinished though, as there is no guide, and at one point I lost control of my character, and he just flew off screen, which I think is because I lost, but not sure why I lost and I wasn't told that I lost.

The Lucky Nugget by Julien Kuhn 2019-10-06T23:15:20Z

The game has a funny atmosphere, and the banjo music really helps that feeling! Graphics could be better. Gameplay is easy to understand, and can keep the player interested, but maybe some more features, like the tavern should be added to make the gameplay more varied. One complaint I have, is that the amount of gold you have is rounded, when it is in the thousands. This becomes a problem when trying to buy a pickaxe, that requires 1.5k gold, but you only know when you have 1k or 2k...

Vaahtera by wie_ 2019-10-07T05:18:00Z

@aurailus Maybe the tutorial was a bit unclear, to place leaves, you have to click and hold the tip of the branch wherre there is a leaf icon.

Start With Rain by Piturnah 2019-10-06T23:21:46Z

I really liked the mysterious Arabian atmosphere this game has, with it's tribesmen and deserts and atmospheric music. I found myself playing this longer than I expected, but I would suggest, that because this is a clicker game for PC, that instead of tediously clicking with the mouse, you could use a keyboard key. The procedurally generated desert is also interesting.

Witch's Cauldron by Kazatan 2019-10-06T23:28:32Z

I also thought that the page wasn't loading, but it just took some time for the Unity logo to appear. First off, the camera shakes a bit too much when the witch does sharp turns at such a speed. The witch's controls are also a bit weird to handle. Actually the witch's movement is the biggest problem in this game, just slowing her down a bit would help a lot. I liked the enemies' AI and design, but the world could be a bit more decorated. Anyway, I liked the potion making process, but perhaps exploration could be incentivised.

Emoji Overflow by laegoose 2019-10-07T09:51:11Z

Very innovative idea and great implementation! Graphics and sound design are excellent. First I noticed that clicking on the emoji's is a bit unresponsive at times, It would make the game more fun in my opinion, if the emoji's were a bit larger (I didn't play on fullscreen, maybe that's why I had problems). The strategy elements are nice, but I would like to have more liberty in what I buy, as the available items seem to cycle. Also, I think you should have more HP, to make the game more fun and intense. Also, I noticed, that you only die, once the emoji is completely inside telegram, but it might make more sense, if you would die, once the emoji collides with telegram.

7 Days by AppoxGames 2019-10-07T10:23:21Z

Very interesting concept - very similar to mine, check it out: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/45/vaahtera ! Gameplay was innovative and clearly a lot of effort was put to the tree growth mechanics and it shows! Nice graphics and audio. My only gripe with this game, is that sometimes, controlling the tree is very difficult, it seems to have a mind of it's own at times. Also, It's sometimes unclear, what parts of the tree are falling off, and how to prevent that, so I would suggest looking at fixing those two things and it will be an even more awesome game! Also- a bug I noticed: At one point, all of my tree died, and I couldn't even try to finish the level, as there was no point left to grow from. Anyway, a really cool and fun game with a great atmosphere!

No Room to Move by Thoof 2019-10-07T09:45:03Z

The music and sound effects are great and fit the game. Graphics are good and clear, but even though this game's art styles differs a lot from other games, which is good, I think the graphical style doesn't exactly fit the gameplay, maybe you should play around with different graphical styles, If you are thinking of continuing the development of the game. This game has a lot of potential :D What I really liked about this game, is that the gameplay mechanics here were new for me, but still they were easy and quick to learn.
