LD45 — Start with nothing

Master Builder Daedalus by Ithildin 2019-10-07T22:06:15Z

That was a fun puzzle game! The last one was quite difficult. Part of solving it seemed to depend on memorizing what kind of blocks you will get from certain scrolls. I'm glad you included it however to show how tricky the game could be after warming us up with the introductory levels. Nice work! :smile:

DECKER_ by adamk33n3r 2019-10-08T00:12:05Z

Really fun concept! I did get stuck in a loop against an enemy who kept playing attacks that make me skip my turn but I was also regenerating HP as fast as he could hit me. It would be pretty hard to find every edge case in a card game with this many different effects however. Nice work! :smile:

Mage in Exile by Nikolay Zapolnov 2019-10-11T17:44:04Z

Nice work! It was a fun little game. I quickly found that fighting the enemies was pointless and it was better to play like a bullet hell game and just grab the loot while chugging back health potions haha. The art was very well done, I liked the farmer enemies that throw vegetables :smile:

SectClicker by themarioga 2019-10-07T22:20:06Z

Having the little people walking around and making quotes was delightful. It felt like the sect was really growing as you added more people. Nice work!

Winter Survival by oxrock 2019-10-08T16:05:41Z

Took quite a few attempts, but I finally survived! It was a fun little game, nice job!

The Pond is Bigger Than He Look by Jake White 2019-10-07T22:29:25Z

Fun game! I now see it was kind of like golf. I found it hard to orient myself without camera rotation, but it was still really fun to build up momentum and launch myself up the river system. :smile:

Nottingham by nidjo123 2019-10-09T17:12:03Z

Those last few levels were quite tricky! I also noticed the lag in areas with lots of lava (particle effects probably?) but otherwise it was a well done game. Nice work!

Nothing Does Matter by joqlepecheur 2019-10-12T21:37:06Z

This was great! I really enjoyed the variety of puzzles. I may have even found a secret on one of the levels :wink:

UPgrade by honzapat 2019-10-07T18:59:37Z

The game link went to a 404, but I'll come back and try your game once you get a chance to update the links!

Venture by eugsun 2019-10-08T16:54:30Z

Like some other commenters mentioned, it was hard (maybe impossible?) to not lose a heart when 2 different coloured bubbles appear at the same time in the same location. Otherwise it was a fun game with a cute art style and funny theme. Nice work!

Sluggish Grind by Catusfelony 2019-10-07T21:06:11Z

Nice game! The graphics are very cute and remind me of the gameboy era. Using the knockback from the gun to travel around quickly was a lot of fun

:gun: :snail:

Nullefense by kipkat 2019-10-11T17:23:46Z

It took a few tries to figure out what to do, but it turned out to be a fun little game. Once I had brick walls defending my turrets and catchers around the core I felt pretty invulnerable. Nice game, good work!

Knight Dash by sam.awk 2019-10-07T23:56:46Z

I managed to dash off the end of the world :laughing: It took a few tries to beat the game but it was fun. The skeleton animation was really well done!

Knight of Redemption by Yeomsley 2019-10-06T22:21:55Z

Thanks for stopping by my page! To play the game just follow the Google Drive link and download the entire zip file.

The MacOS executable is in Build/LD45.app

The Windows executable is in Build/LD45/LD45/LD_JAM_45.exe

:smile:

Knight of Redemption by Yeomsley 2019-10-07T18:41:39Z

@rillep & @kazatan Hey, thanks for trying out my game! There was supposed to be a win condition for getting outside into the green grassy area. Right now the HP text changes to say "You Win" but that obviously wasn't a very good way to indicate the end of the game. I wanted to improve that but ran out of time while touching up other features. I had planned to add some more power ups (like jumping or other abilities) but had to cut that all out of the project for now. I had a lot of fun inventing the crazy monsters, especially the spinning "Fisher-Mole" haha

Stylemancer by mattdotam 2019-10-08T16:43:32Z

Nice game! Wish it was longer, you should flesh it out for a full release! :smile:

LD47 — Stuck in a loop

A bright light flashes and when it subsides... by KunoNoOni 2020-10-06T19:50:14Z

Didn't have any issues that others are reporting. I enjoyed the game, well done! While some choices felt arbitrary I could see patterns in the others and some clues early on helped later (I think?)

All hail the groundhogs!

Kinalo by mutuware 2020-10-05T22:00:35Z

Nice autumn mood :fallen_leaf:

HamsterLoop 2020 by johnnysix 2020-10-04T23:52:14Z

Cute hamsters! It took a few tries to understand the controls but eventually it made sense. I was not able to get past the first level however since the Grey hamster couldn't make the jump to the wheel :(

ShortRails by Yorsh 2020-10-05T20:08:22Z

Really cute art, and a fun gameplay loop (ha). Nice job!

DEMON LOOP by dinosire 2020-10-04T23:58:07Z

The wizard model was very cute. Well done on the graphics, and the gameplay was fun too! I enjoyed making a mega loop at the end with all the power ups to catch the last stray demon :)

Programmer Nightmare by Cary Stanley 2020-10-05T02:12:18Z

After much wandering it was worth it for the ending haha

Infinite rails by BOOtak 2020-10-05T19:44:03Z

Nice work! It was a quick but fun little game. I enjoyed the retro aesthetic

Virtual Chicken Staring Contest by TheLonewolf 2020-10-05T00:06:30Z

An interesting entry. That chicken has some good stamina for staring contests

Mr. Cycle by CM9 2020-10-06T02:31:22Z

A fun little game. Sometimes it felt like the character wouldn't jump when I wanted it to, which can be a big annoying when you miss an important jump and have to do the loop again. I liked the atmosphere of the mysterious temple. Nice entry!

Through Cosmos by Hadryel 2020-10-06T01:35:56Z

Like all the others have said, your artwork was amazing! Great job on the game :)

Stuck in an inner tube! by UkuleleFury 2020-10-05T02:10:06Z

Fun game! Reminds me of Ice Climber, but actually easier to control despite the bouncing :)

Stormy Night by lesinvisible 2020-10-05T19:33:03Z

Loved the visuals and the voices! Very well done :smile:

Loopita's Dream by vetu11 2020-10-05T22:31:26Z

I am a beautiful space hamster now :hamster: Really nice game!

Cluck of the Time Egg by Yeomsley 2020-10-05T13:28:48Z

@thelonewolf @thevideogamester Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment! I will make the collision boxes more forgiving in a future update. :smile:

Cluck of the Time Egg by Yeomsley 2020-10-06T02:03:35Z

@mutuware @hadryel Keep an eye on your boots around gremlints... ;)

@fedora I certainly thought of Half-Minute Hero or whatever it is called as the game came together. I wanted something a little less frantic however.

@quinn-patrick Oh right, I'm surprised I didn't think of "Ys" with its bumper combat, good call! In this case I took a bit of inspiration from "The Frog for Whom the Bell Tolls". I'm curious what you mean by the wonky layering specifically?

Those darn sticky walls are obviously the gremlints fault and part of the lore :P /s

Caterpillar Dissent: Deliverance by Skleembof 2020-10-06T02:13:12Z

I ate nearly everything and then started ascending to the sky as the music came to its finish. Glorious. Really nice job with all the art assets! The game was hard to control at first but I got the hang of it eventually. :bug:

Bunny Loop by Fedora 2020-10-05T22:11:44Z

A fun game! Getting the hang of the controls and making the most of my short bunny life was worth it for the ending :smile:

Stuck On The Orbit by Corporation 2020-10-06T20:21:16Z

Nice, well done! It felt like the game really opened up once you get more upgrades and suddenly I was hopping across large expanses of space on my way home.

Roll it up by Tom Kun 2020-10-05T22:45:26Z

Really neat game idea. I would love to have a word with whoever keep throwing junk down the mountain at Timmy :P

Looping Condor 3000 by Quinn_Patrick 2020-10-06T01:56:50Z

Really satisfying ships to fly, and I enjoyed the build up of the music and atmosphere as the game progressed. Nice work!

Get out of the Traffic Circle! by APBakeWare 2020-10-06T19:58:37Z

Nice game! I enjoyed the radio stations as I veered in and out of traffic

Stuck In A Loo by riroriro 2020-10-06T02:36:42Z

Ahh poo jokes. Nicely done haha :poop: The game was fun and funny, nice job!

Ghost loop by Mari-Anna 2020-10-05T19:59:39Z

I made it to the end. Neat game! The secret fish room was helpful :)

Hamster Happiness by shosanna 2020-10-05T22:16:56Z

Cute animations and sounds. I had fun taking care of my virtual hamster :hamster: Nice work!

Punpkin Loops by FreddyTurbina 2020-10-05T19:39:12Z

The pumpkin is so cute. Fun game!

Revengful Towers by ANONIM93 2020-10-06T02:22:14Z

What a neat concept! Besides a few technical issues this was a really cool game. I liked all the different blob monsters that came from the towers and how each seemed to have a different use.

Great job!

Escape A Curved World by Feraligatr 2020-10-05T22:24:53Z

I enjoyed the derpy main character and his well done animations. The looping world effect was neat! Oh and the zombie monster sounds made me laugh haha

Loop Deleter by Zachary Barbanell 2020-10-04T23:13:59Z

A neat little puzzle game. Nice work!

Currently stuck on one of the later levels but I'll figure it out eventually.. :)

SORO BORO by nethead 2020-10-05T20:18:18Z

Really fun! The rocket launcher is satisfying to use. Some of the levels get pretty tricky with timing jumps before more monsters spawn. Nice job!

LD48 — Deeper and deeper

deepr by phi 2021-04-30T18:07:50Z

Well done! There are some great inspirational quotes on the leaderboard so far :)

Mr Games Fall by Bloham 2021-04-26T01:22:33Z

Nice work! The pixel art and parallaxing background is really impressive! Making music and sounds while trying to do all the other stuff is hard work, congrats on getting it into your submission!

Chameleon Excavation by NykolaR 2021-04-28T00:27:03Z

Oh dang, nice work! I really like how you managed to make a 3D space visible for the player to navigate. Took a few tries to make it to the end!

Wigly Hunt by rawbits 2021-05-05T01:00:10Z

A nice simple little game, but impressive that you made it for GBA! I'm inspired to try making a GBA game myself some day. Great job!

The Stick of Many Thingsâ„¢ by Ty Victorson 2021-05-05T03:57:10Z

Nice job on the lighting effects. The forest was pleasant to explore as I smacked bad guys with my stick.

Town of Monsters by lesinvisible 2021-04-30T15:14:30Z

Awesome job! I love your style! The graphics and audio are amazing for a Ludum Dare entry. I had no idea what each of my attacks/defence styles do, but that is part of the charm of the game. I'm just an exterminator here to collect life flavour.

Dig 'Till You Drown! by Yeomsley 2021-04-29T04:25:43Z

@elsombrero Glad you enjoyed my programmer art :)

@LMB Thanks for trying out my game! I agree that the controls could use some more work. Holding down space helps a bit with the ledge grabbing.

@ImZary Thanks! I had plans to add Lady Cerulean and your growing pile of gems to the level select screen but the time got spent on other things.

Dig 'Till You Drown! by Yeomsley 2021-04-30T15:02:03Z

@thewinrawr Ah good point about the gems. I should keep in mind that during a jam it is frustrating to get a "game over" screen or lose progress. With so many games to test/play we can't put too much time into a single game.

@sakura-magika I should have put a "dig up" command like the dig down one. Don't know how I missed that, thanks for the feedback!

Tunnel Rats by GeneralSturgeon 2021-04-30T18:17:02Z

I enjoyed the rat voices :) The game reminded me somewhat of the tunnel sections in starfox. Really well done, great job!

Slug Adventure by TheWinrawr 2021-04-26T23:51:29Z

I made it to the end! Nice job on the game. It was a fun combination of puzzle and action. You managed to make a lot of "levels" in the limited time frame :)

Nostril Navigator by Xenon27 2021-05-06T02:58:22Z

Wonderfully disgusting, good job!

Thrice Upon A Time by sakura_magika 2021-04-29T04:21:44Z

That was beautiful! Nice work! I enjoyed the mini games and it was a short but sweet story.

Deep Dog by DevNoob 2021-04-26T23:37:30Z

Congrats on completing Ludum Dare! I liked the artwork and the variety of enemies/obstacles.

Asterisk by Crychair 2021-05-05T01:19:34Z

Awesome job! I loved the sarcastic voice telling me fun facts about the asteroids fatality rate as I dig.

Deep Salvage by TerraReef 2021-05-04T03:22:22Z

I enjoyed diving for loot and leveling up to go further and further. As others mentioned the controls held it back a bit, but overall a fun game!

Fungy's Adventure by ParadoxFox 2021-04-26T03:30:11Z

Very cute!

Jung Guns by vickles 2021-05-04T03:02:43Z

Nice work! I'm not a good bullet hell player so I didn't make it too far but I enjoyed what you had.

B.R.E.A.K - Bad Robot Enjoys Attacking Krew! by pxlshk 2021-05-05T01:05:59Z

I liked the robots walk animation. The controls felt responsive and the character felt heavy (as a metal robot would I imagine). A fun game to play through, nice job!
