LD41 — Combine 2 Incompatible Genres

Wordelicious by ludipe 2018-04-23T08:51:35Z

That's a really good fun game, loved almost everything about it. And as a non-native English speaker, I can even find it some kind of educational theme. I will definitively come back to this game from time to time.

Super Happy Curling by Samuli 2018-04-23T08:17:27Z

I tried it solo, and that's a pretty hard game! I think it have great potential of fun in multiplayer. But I'd like to see some gameplay video before asking my girlfriend to play a couple games with me, so I can explain here how to play properly! :smile:

Tales from Avanor by theviraldragon 2018-04-23T19:05:50Z

Great concept. The game is just lacking a quick and easy way to check inventory and military power. Maybe with some sort of bookmarks? If you keep adding content to this game, I will definitely play it again!

Rythm is Lava by egordorichev 2018-04-23T12:17:08Z

That's a great little game, typically the kind I will come back to and try improve my score on, and maybe, one day, beat it entirely. That's a perfect realisation for me, I can even think of anything bad to say. Except maybe that's it's hard as hell. But, hey, even that is part of the fun! :smiley:

Flee, little guinea pig! by tipyx 2018-04-23T09:30:38Z

Great ideas here! I never thought that mixing a golf game and a stealth game could make something so fun (and hard). Too bad you didn't implement any sound.

¶City by Sophie 2018-04-24T07:04:26Z

That is a full game you made here. I played for a while never seeing the same line of text twice, pretty impressive. Right now I'm lost in the vacant lots, but I keeping this in my bookmarks to finish it later! Thank you for this game.

Total Carnage by DrunkardWolf 2018-04-23T17:24:54Z

Fun little game, I particularly loved the graphics, minimalist but great!

One More Arm by MaximBegunov 2018-04-24T07:53:20Z

That's a great idea! And it's working perfectly. I can think of anything bad to say. It's simple, but a lot of fun. Thank you!

Match & Shoot by joekinglake 2018-04-23T12:31:33Z

The first two games, I was standing still and shooting conscientiously, moving only when my clips were empty and it was, well, meh... But then I started running & jumping around gathering ammo while trying to shoot straight at my target. And that's when the fun started! And it was a pretty great experience. I think you should have emphatized the fact that running is essential, maybe by adding some threats to avoid or something. Because in the end, it's a pretty nervous game, for a match 3 game. :sweat_smile:

I played a few games and reached a hi-score of 4490.

Dodge The Bullet by Apace 2018-04-23T08:30:51Z

That's a pretty fun game! I just made it through all the levels, and I think the difficulty curve is pretty good as the two last levels aren't easy. I think it could make a great mobile game.

The graphics are simple, but efficient. The animations, however, are quite jittering, they could have been smoother.

Neon Space by SMILEY_4_ 2018-04-24T07:27:14Z

Great game! I am absolutely in love with the graphics!

Escape the room, escape your death by Jakub Panek 2018-04-23T09:55:13Z

I'm stuck finding the combination for the second chest. Tried everything but nothing seems to work. And I don't really get the point of those windows popping at me every two seconds.

Overall it's not a bad game, but I think the survival side of it could be thrown away as it's here for the only purpose of fulfilling the theme and is not really adding anything to the game. Also, I'd like to have some more visual/audio feedback, currently it's kind of like looking at a still image that I can rotate.

Don't get me wrong, I had fun playing your game, and I may get back to it and try to find that damn combination. But I think some more polishing would have been great! :smiley:

The Call of Cthulhu - Puzzle Edition by bombjack 2018-04-23T17:50:39Z

I just finished the game, and I'm so sad it's that short, because as a fan of H.P. Lovecraft and Cthulhu related things, I can tell you it is amazing and rather full of great ideas! If you continue the development post-jam, I will definitely play a full version of this game.

A Fistful of Shrooms by gdort 2018-04-24T07:37:08Z

Definitely a good one! I'm sad that it's so short. I tried it a couple time, and even without missing any shot an reloading manually at key moments, I feel that it's almost impossible to finish the game without taking any damage, am I wrong? Also, there is floating sheriff stars, but shooting on them did nothing, is there a way to collect them for, I imagine, heal myself?

Roguespector by Yanek 2018-04-23T12:07:44Z

Thank you all for your feedback. I know there is some issues, sometimes, when you want to play again after a game over, but I wasn't able to figure out the reasons in time for the deadline. Maybe I'll check in later if it's fine to post a bugfix update.

@Cheesey Bob That's a pretty good score, I don't think I ever got that far while testing the game in its final state.

Agent Patissier by sndr 2018-04-23T10:20:40Z

This game is awesome! I. had. so. much. fun! And it's beautiful. Kind of reminded me of Hotline Miami, but with delicious cookies.

Honest Hunting by TheZingThing 2018-04-23T09:19:13Z

Great idea here, unfortunately the game keeps freezing on level 4, at the start of turn 2. I don't know if I am doing something wrong... I'm waiting to see if you can fix something before leaving my rating :smile:

Honest Hunting by TheZingThing 2018-04-23T10:05:49Z

@TheZingThing You were right, I managed to get to the last level playing differently. I didn't understand the whole "exits" thing the first time. May need a clearer indication on the corresponding tile.

LD41 - Money Doesn't Grow on Trees by Distrait 2018-04-23T08:42:30Z

This is a great little game, had I lot of fun trying it. I'd loved some kind of controller support, and maybe some variety in enemies. But overall that's a pretty great success for me!

SSSS by PlusMinus 2018-04-24T07:44:07Z

The graphics are gorgeous! And the gameplay looks fun and rich, but the lack of explanations made it really hard to apprehend.

Rise Of Robos by Suboptimalplay 2018-04-24T07:16:27Z

That's a great start and a good idea! I think the concept works pretty well. I'm sad that the game does not have a little more depth and challenge. I got to the end of it basically running the same loop over and over again until my population reached the cap.

Bumper Buddies by JavaSaurus 2018-04-23T17:41:47Z

I haven't played a pinpall game in years. That game remembered me a lot of good memories! The graphics could have benefited a little more polishing but the concept is great and well executed. Thank you!

Stealth Casual Farming Simulator by RadioactiveRambo 2018-04-23T08:14:16Z

That's a fun game, I can already see some different strategies. The one which worked best for me was to plant seeds on individual squares scattered all around the map and run from crop to crop avoiding the wolves.

Like @pinkemma, I think some more visual (or audio?) feedback would have been great, for harvestable crops and maybe also a detection gauge or indicator of some kind.

Six Shooter: Cowboy vs Aliens by Danby 2018-04-23T12:03:33Z

Loved the game! Full of good ideas. 1190 is my highscore for now, but I'll try to improve it.

Like already said, feedback for damage taken would have been great. And maybe I'm doing something wrong, but sometimes when I click, my character doesn't shoot (and I checked, I have bullets left).

Hidden Profits by Hello1423 2018-04-23T13:54:07Z

This is a fun game to play. It took me a little time to get used to the controls, but in the end I had a few cool games. There is a lot of great ideas in it!

@Keppu I don't have any sound either, so I think it normal. I thinks some sound and music could have added a lot to the whole claustrophobic feel of the game. Also, maybe the upgrade system could have been done better, and more user with bad memory friendly.

Card Coded by Pixelhurricane 2018-04-23T10:50:59Z

It is a fun game, with good ideas. Like @spthiel I think mouse oriented controls would have been more intuitive and easy, as most of the difficulty of the game come from the somewhat hard to master controls.

I already managed to get past a few levels, and will try again later to get a little further and see the end of the game.
