It's super fun, and extremely hard. I couldn't save one single person. I was super close but I need to be more patient.

This game is really cool, feels really polished. The music, sound, gameplay, specially the ambiance is awesome. Didn't find anything bad about it.
The shooting feels so good. The controls are flawless, I'd play this game for hours if I could use a controller. The only thing that I didn't like is that you can't jump up through the platforms.
The mood this game creates with the graphics and the music is amazing. Few controls and still a great gameplay, I really liked it.
The game play and graphics are really good in this one. The controls work really well. Nice game.
I like the graphics, and even the way it moves jumping, it's fun. I didn't understand what I had to do. When I finally found enemies to kill I got lost and could never get back to the town, lol. Anyway, it was fun.
Loos awesome, plays smoothly and it's addictive. It's really hard, but I'll keep trying later. It's sad that it doesn't have any sound.
Amazing game. Beautiful art, nice music and sound. It feels so polished, and it's so rewarding. It's short and not that hard, but it's entertaining.
Nice little puzzle game. I liked the graphics and the core mechanics. I felt like some times I couldn't walk straight, I don't know why, and when I was left with just three boxes of the same color I didn't know what to do, it wasn't game over either =/ Anyway, it was fun and the game looks promising.
Nice gameplay, I love danmaku games, and this one is pretty original. The music is good, but it needs something for the bullets.
This game is really good. Graphics, music, sound effect, dialogs. It's great overall. But I think it needs to be clearer. After the first stage I didn't get any disease, after the second I got two so I went to heal but I didn't understand how. The hud says I have 23 coins, but in the store I only have 3, maybe that's why I couldn't heal, but I'm not sure.
Nice graphics, good gameplay. I was wondering how people make games so good in 48 hours, bu you did this in 3 hours? Man, I feel bad with myself =/
It's fun and hard, I only made 14 lines. It need some music.
Looks very nice. The graphics and the background sound are cool.
The graphics are great and the music is really good. I liked the 2.5D perspective. I feel it a little slow and sometime I don't know exactly where I'm standing. There was a part where I needed to jump to the platform exactly above the one I was standing, but it seems like jump is disabled there. I tried killing myself jumping to the other side and I ended up in the upper platform, I didn't understand how. I couldn't kill any slime, it seems you can't attack while jumping and there is no space where they are standing. And when one get down close to me, I attacked and my sword didn't hit it because it's too small =( In general, I think the main problem is that it was running very slow, but maybe it's my PC. I'd love to play this game if completed and fixed.
Nice! It's really hard, I think I died about 10 times in the first stage, until I understood that you can't stop running. Even when you can run with X, I think you have to make an specific route to escape.
Wow, great graphics, great sound. The controls are nice, it feels so smooth and polished. Great game overall.
This is crazy, this game is amazingly well made, it one of the most fun I've played so far, and I've played a lot. Many weapons, different enemies, strategy, nice graphics. Great work.
Wow, this is great. Super fun game, nice graphics, original mechanics, challenging but fair, scoreboard. Really good game.
Very good graphics. I saw in this contest, but it's very well implemented in this game. I really liked it.
Very good game, I liked that you can to an extent improve your speed shooting. Excellent graphics.
Now I can make a new city with all the people that's following me.
Very interesting puzzle, needs work though. There are certain movements that make the cubes (that at first thought they were squares) to rotate in their z axis. You can still make them fall to the green bar but it will take you more movements because they get stuck.
Another life simulator. Fun game. And thaaaaank you for the multiple jumps, it just makes a game so much fun! And almost no game I have played today have it.
I like the jumping animation. Good graphics, fun game overall.
This is impressive. The levels are professional level designed. Some levels have no mercy and the platform where you start vanish immediately, but it's fun, because levels are short and you always start again in the same level. It's really hard to get the idea at first. The worst part I didn't notice while playing, but once I closed the window I couldn't see clear for a while. Maybe colors are too bright, the contrast is too high, I'm not sure. The animation of the character, how it feels when you jump, the level design, the sounds, the music. This game is professional level I.M.O.
Graphics look very nice, but sometimes I don't know which object is what. Oh and it has cat on cat action right there O_O
This is good, and a really good idea for a game. The sound effect could be better, and if the cars were bigger it would have a perfect playability. Very fun game.
Very good game, I like how you worked the theme with the physics. I like the mood of the game too, I've always liked the dark, lugubrious ambiance.
Graphics are great and perfect for the theme of the game. The theme of the contest was very well implemented. I just had a technical problem, some times I wanted to drag and drop the files and they got suck in the mouse with one click, and some times I just clicked them and the text selection cursor appeared, I guess it's a browser player problem. I'm playing it on chrome. Great game anyways.
Very good game, even being black and whit, it looks great and plays very good. The mechanics is very original and fun.
It's a cool mechanic, it took me a while to understand that I had to take the blobs back to the upper room (maybe I didn't read something), but overall it was fun. There's a dark room that I didn't get what to do there.
The art is fantastic, the animation is flawless. I felt the mechanic or recharging a little hard and the enemies aim is perfect, but it's enjoyable anyways.
Jumping from a plant to another was too hard already, and the creatures on them made it frustrating. Graphics are much better than I expected at first, and the controls are good.
Nice game. The graphics were really good for the time you had and the music is great, it sure reminds of the old school video games.
Wow, this game is great, it could be on consoles easily. I'm not a fan of racing games, but this one is fun and I loved the atmosphere.
Forget the gems, catch the pickaxe! Lol, once my pickaxe get on one wagon and I had to use another one to recover it. It almost worked, but I only could catch one of them.
Good Idea for a game, controls are good. There's a bug in the second level, if you got the first coin and you fall on the second one but touching the next platform, you get stuck and you can't move anymore. In general, it's a fun game.
Really good mechanic for the theme. It's really creative, and when I noticed you can throw the babies it was so much funnier,xD.
I don't know who won, so I guess I won! Very fun game, the music could have been better.
This is another awesome game. Great graphics, smart use of the them and flawless gameplay. It only needs a good background music, except for that this is almost perfect score for me.
You need to be patient. After a while of drinking well, I started to click everywhere and it was fun, lol.
Very funny game. Good graphics and sound effects.
I tried several times and couldn't make a pizza. I laughed when I saw the client, nice graphics xD. It was fun.
It could be nice, but you need a way to win or a better way to lose. It hurts in the hand =/
The graphics are really good, and the music is outstanding. One of the best background music I have listened in this Ludum Dare.
The controls are unnecessarily hard, you need to hold 3 buttons, one of them you use it to move, but you don't need it because you can't attack while moving, and you'd have to because your enemy can attack you from an insane range. You need to be close range to hit him, but that'll never happen because he teleports. And he can summon a boulder right over you to take half of your hit points.
Really good and polished game with one of the best mechanics I've seem so far in this LD. Graphics and sound totally awesome. The learning curve is pretty hard, but it's addictive and keeps you retrying. Maybe if the amount of mana wasn't a factor for the jump height, or the height were higher it wasn't so hard. Or maybe the mana gauge should be larger, I'm no sure. Anyway, you have a great game here that needs some work in balance.
Very well done, it plays smoothly. It's a bit frustrating a space shooter where you can't just shoot like crazy, but it's an interesting way to use the theme.
Yes, I beat it... in normal. But it's good, I liked a lot. Sadly, our Lord Satan has not given me the third arm I would need to play the Nightmare version, because changing from mouse to arrow keys is easy. I always tried to hit enemies with the mouse.
Really fun game. Good graphics, sound effects and visual effects. It's fun to go shooting things and avoiding bombs.
It's a fun dungeon crawler, at first I was fighting monsters like a champ, but it's hard so I decided to choose my battles. I don't know why sometimes I needed to hit space to read the text and some times it worked with the arrows. I think it's because there's no more text, but you don't know and you keep pressing space and nothing happens, it feels broken. In general it's hard to understand what you are doing, but I guess that's the style of the game. And those skeletons are hard.
Very nice graphics. I went to the right first and didn't understand what I had to do, wasted a lot of time there, until I want to the left and fond the other creature. Very cool game.
Maybe the collision boxes are too big, I couldn't pass between the objects in the street, they hit me on the two sides.
Really good graphics, and original mechanics. I tried to move object from one place to another but I could, I think I shouldn't.
It's entertaining. At first the white items confused me, but rapidly you understand that this is your target and it's much easier.
The puzzles are good and I think it's a smart idea for a game, but since it's based on physics I feel it slow, and you need a lot of patience. Good game overall.
At the end I don't know if I won or lost. Just pressed space bar and didn't know what was happening.
Basically living to the age of 20 is a struggle. Because of the theme of the contest, many games are about being fat, but this one goes direct to the veins, lol.
Very nice and simple game. The art of the sword is very cool.
Beautiful game. Once you get used to the controls it's rather easy. But it's a nice experience to play it.
When I deciphered that RMB meant right click, it was much easier. It's entertaining, it's cool that you can hit goblins by just turning around.
The graphics are good, the controls are nice too. The basic idea is great, but the implementation of the theme with the mechanics I didn't like it at all. It makes the game less fun that it could be. You need to empty your gum to jump to the top and be able to shot, and when you recharge you are super slow and can't jump, but you still need to evade the enemy's bullet. When one hits you it makes you step back and fall, that's one of the most frustrating things in a video game. But apart of all that, I think without the theme it would have been an awesome, fun and very polished game. I played it in Chrome, it works well.
Fun game, it get's hard fast. I like that it forces you to be alert constantly.
It's an interesting concept. It took me a while to realize that I could jump, I'm not used to jump with the up arrow, but it works. I don't know if I got stuck on the edge of the screen or is I had so many apples that I couldn't move. It really need some kind of feedback, a little sound would be good.
At first I thought it was going to be a slow calm game, but it can go very fast. It wasfun.
Nice music and the controls are good. The graphics are nice, but a background would have been good. I got stuck to an invisible wall twice. I can rotate but I can't move forward.
I'll tell the true, I was trying to play the web based games first, because it's easier. But I liked the graphics a lot so I downloaded it. OMG, this is awesome. It's so sad that doesn't have any sound. The mechanics, the graphics, everything else was great. Short, obviously, but great. The final battle, for a moment I thought I had to kill his HP, but fool of me. You nailed the theme, and did the most original game mechanic I have seen so far. I really hope you continue this game because I want to play it.
@swen cool, I think more people will play it know. I beat it again.
It's an interesting game, even though the graphics are not the most polished, it plays well. Is it possible to move the camera? I felt things were happening out of the camera range, I even clicked a button that was only partially visible, and it took me out of the game =/
Awesome game. The second comment here made me keep playing until the end, and it was worth it. It's really easy, in fact I don't know if you can lose, if not it's not much of a game, but it was really fun anyways.
I liked the graphics, the gameplay is a little confusing at first, but once you got it, well, it's still hard xD. Funny game.
Super fun. Rescuing followers and blowing things is the best them ever! xD
Good graphics. I really liked the mechanics for the ammo, the shooting and multiple shooting, specially the fact that you can recover your coins. My problem is that I didn't understand what I had to do and I didn't like that I couldn't kill (or KO) the enemies.
Simple but fun. The shoots are responsive enough to kill even really close enemies. Music and sound are good too.
@saucygames thanks for the feedback, I agree. In fact, I had a lot more planed, but didn't have enough time and had to cut a lot and do it soon to make it not look like unfinished. I even wanted some enemies that when killed, their remains will become another type of enemy that you have to bomb again. There is another weapon in the game, but since I cut levels you never get it, etc. It was my first Ludum Dare (and my second game ever) and I think I scoped it too big, luckily for me I know how to cut things from projects to make it on time. Again, thanks for playing it.
@pinneh Thank you. Yes, the engine I'm using change the position of the events before they move and then does the animation of moving. So, if you or an enemy move fast to an adjacent square, the explosion will look like it hits you, because you are still moving, it's just a fraction of a second but it's noticeable sometimes. I couldn't find a workaround to this before the times run out. Lol, while I'm writing this I've figured out how to do it, but I guess the time pressure was a factor. Thanks for the feedback!
@petr-belohlavek I agree about the music. But I had to do it myself and I don't know anything about making music, so I just hit keys until I thought something didn't sound so awful. When I made the last test, I thought about removing it and send it without music. At least people didn't complain much about it.
@cerno-b thanks for the feedback. Yeah, I didn't make the windows version because it's so much faster to play it on browser. I could have upload the windows build, but it's about 120MB, and it takes a lot of time. The multiple bombs could have been an upgrade, but didn't have time for that either.
It's fun to play. I would have liked that your hit was better, at first I thought I was not doing anything.
It's a cool idea, you need to plan your game and move precisely. It can become addictive.
It's a good sidescrolling. I liked how you worked the theme and it's strangely satisfying being hit and losing coins to get faster. Those guys shooting coins at you, I couldn't avoid them once, and once you start losing speed it very hard to get back. Fun game overall.
Really great and polished game. At first I didn't thought a pinball game will surprise me, but it has really great mechanics. The music is very good.
LOL, when I realized what I was doing wrong. This game makes you fight against your gamer instincts. It's hard and fun.
Is there a way to lose? I was having fun until I noticed you can't fall of the borders =(
Nice game. Atari like graphics and sound. It gets very hard fast. I hated that guy that follows you, he killed me every time.
@matthias-schedel you need to place the spikes in their path, you can buy exactly one more spike enough to kill them. Then you just need to upgrade the spikes every time you have enough money. There's only one unit that will survive it's an old ghost with a beard, but by that time you have enough money to fill the field with spikes. Fun game, but yes, spikes are broken.
I'm terrible for FPS, I might be the worst, but this game is very interesting and visually polished. I really liked that the levels are short and fast. Great game overall.
A little hard to get used to the controls, but once you do it's fun.
Awesome graphics. And since it doesn't have an end, I just stopped when I saw a repeated question. I had like 90 work to do.
I liked the main idea of the game, the mechanic is nice, but it has problems, specially with the physics. I think there is too much friction with the walls, and it makes it really hard to jump, specially with the type of level you designed. I think it can be a good game if you fix some key problems.
I was ready for the NSFW, but dogs? LOL. For a game like this I'd recommend RPG Maker MV, you can do a lot more faster, as long as it's an RPG. The art and character design is nice.
Really nice graphics. Controls are not the best but are not terrible. I didn't get the theme unless it's "the more machetes you have in the back, the more dead you are", because it's super hard xD. Overall I liked it.
When there are about 90 creatures it gets super slow. Anyway, it's a fun game.
Cool game. It took me a while to understand how it worked, but once you get it it's fun.
Really good game. I love the pixel art in this and the mechanic for movement feels great.
When you are close to the edges the enemy can spawn very close to you, I lost two lifes that way. The controls are very good, I lasted long because you can move easily.
Really good idea for a game, and it could be a lot of fun, but the controls need some work, the character moves weird and it feels slow and unresponsive. Still a fun game.
It's a good card game, it plays fast and smoothly. I didn't understand the rules, though.
It was nice, I don't know if it was a game, but it's interesting.
Really cool. Physics and graphics are awesome.
Very good idea, the art and the music are good. It's a shame that it's hard to test the two player gameplay.
@karlipoppins thank you. The music was generated with this page: https://pernyblom.github.io/abundant-music/index.html you just have to adjust some parameters to get the results you look for.
@theseusinabottle thanks! The try again option is supposed to work like that, you don't lose any of your progress. The enemies get frozen when you put their stone on the batteries. Maybe it's not very clear, but if you click on a frozen enemy the character tells you. Thank you for playing it!
Controls are weird, I couldn't ever deposit the metal. Looks like a nice idea, and graphics are good.
Nice! I specially like the mood you achieved with this kind of graphics.
It was very good, my favorite so far. With better graphics and a better soundtrack it would be a legit game. I almost gave up on 7th level. jam01.jpg
Nice game! the graphics are beautiful and the mood it achieves with them is great. The platformer part is kinda hard.
The controls are hard at first, but then you understand how they work and it's pretty good. Dragons are hard to get.
I didn't understand what I had to do, I just walked, collected material, build and upgraded stuff, but nothing happened. And I played for very long. After a while, I needed that sheet of metal and I couldn't find any for days so I couldn't upgrade anything else. Graphics are great, the ambiance was the best, felt like in danger all the time.
very nice idea, I loved the you can play many games at the same time with the same controls, that's a lot of fun.
Nice little game, it was fun. I had to run a lot for that battery.
This was very well done. Birds and eggs, natural enemies!
I don't knoiw what Sokoban is, but I must be pretty terrible at it, I only solved one puzzle, and I don't even know what I did xD
I wanted to see how many games started with a naked person, I'm disappointed that this is the first one I see, lol. At least I finished it.
Fun game, totally nailed the theme. It worked pretty well in chrome, but not in firefox.
@diaonic @cosmicpickle you can use the menu to auto destroy and get unstuck. But that costs you a life (that you can buy in the menu too). Thank you for playing it!
@rhoff95 You are right, at the end I was going to change it, but didn't have time.
Nice graphics, and nice controls. Cool idea for the theme.
Great! I really love bullet hells and the theme for this is very well executed.
