LD29 — Beneath the Surface

Last Dive by Gabriel 2014-05-01T18:50:00

A little bit predictable but I really enjoyed it! :)
I like this kind of games.
Good job!
Life is just a chapter in something bigger.

ScubaBear by _Rilem 2014-04-29T15:15:00

One of the best games of this Ludum Dare!

Kinetectonic by headchant 2014-04-28T13:15:00

Very nice idea, but it was a little too easy.

Dwarven Kingdoms by kristof 2014-04-28T06:30:00

Nice idea. Next time you can try use Emscripten to compile your C++ code to JavaScript. :)
I tried that and it is working (as you can see in my entry)

Beneath the surface by devince 2014-04-29T16:52:00

There's no place where I can be, since I found Serenity.

Watch Your Step by nka 2014-04-28T17:56:00

Addictive gameplay! I like it :)

Escape From Guardian (Fixed link!) by Pheonise 2014-04-28T14:38:00

So scary! :)
One of my favorite LD games!
Reminds me of Dune and Sandworm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandworm_(Dune)

Ascendence by Diamonde 2014-04-28T15:02:00

Very good graphics and gameplay, but player moves a little bit too slow.

Life story by gmaker 2014-04-27T21:54:00

Yea. Graphics are very good :) You're very talented!

Greed for Gems by mortus 2014-04-28T16:38:00

Thank you for two players mode!
Also very nice graphics. :)

Whale Princess Rescue Expedition by zinfandel 2014-04-28T13:37:00

Very nice game! But there's a bug where right blocks are still darker after founding of the polar bear.

Hostile Planet by rezoner 2014-04-28T15:11:00

Very nice game, music and graphics!
Will it be Android port as usual? :D

Mine Story by donan 2014-04-28T12:40:00

This might be nice smartphone game ;)

Sewer Escape by somethingsimilar 2014-04-28T14:11:00

Reminds me of Teselecta's bots from Doctor Who!
Very nice and a little scary!

Grow by weazen 2014-04-27T21:56:00

I like this minimalistic style :)

Neath by metkis 2014-04-28T16:36:00

Very well designed gameplay. A little too short, but it's OK.
;)

Overwhelmed by OhFiddleDiddle 2014-04-28T13:04:00

Everyone hates me :(

Try to get out by morganbengtsson 2014-04-28T14:19:00

Can you link libgcc libs to the .exe? I can't run it.
Check this: http://stackoverflow.com/a/4703059

Dr. LOVE by Cell 2014-04-27T21:56:00

Very nice effects :P

Memory Eater by Zyper 2014-04-28T13:02:00

@kristof Yeah. It was my intention :)
@strong99 I wanted to make normal game with worm collecting points, but Emscripten (C++ to JS compiler) didn't work well with "delete (*iterator)" or "free" so I redesigned it to this strange crasher. :) Sorry for the crazy Windows binary. For me it was just a little faster than web version.

Memory Eater by Zyper 2014-04-28T13:03:00

@SmilingCat Secret keys are arrows (left and right).

Memory Eater by Zyper 2014-04-28T15:04:00

@FileCorrupted Yea, I was using just GLFW for creating window context and... that's all! Everything is a raw, clean OpenGL (and of course WebGL in Web version).

Memory Eater by Zyper 2014-05-01T15:48:00

I finally figured out what was the problem with memory leaks. :D
But I won't update this version. I will let worm live! :)
Now I am ready for the next Ludum Dare.

Thank you all for this nice comments. It is my first (and "symbolic") entry. I didn't know somebody would like this "game".

Also sorry for my english.
Thank you.

Memory Eater by Zyper 2014-05-03T06:01:00

@GreatBigJerk As I said: secret keys are left and right arrow.
@StudioWolfox I don't know. :D It sounds weird, but I didn't thought about second meaning when I was making it.

Memory Eater by Zyper 2014-05-10T17:47:00

@Bernhard Yes, it is a bug, because I "commented" (//) a delete operator in main loop.

Lights by Seyroth 2014-04-28T13:09:00

Very nice idea :) I like this multi-endings thing.

Cave'n Escape by lamphj 2014-04-28T14:02:00

Very nice game! :)
It might be very cool on smartphones.

The Gathering by oatsbarley 2014-04-28T14:08:00

Amazing art style!

Beneath the well by JaJ 2014-05-04T19:17:00

Wow! Amazing gameplay!
I beat it in 20 minutes. ;)

Nereids' Sea by Tifu 2014-04-28T14:57:00

Very nice gameplay. :)
And a little bit scary!

Rogue Miner by dem0 2014-04-28T13:55:00

LOL, I'M DEAD :)
I like this retro roguelike style :)

Beneath the Trolls by Dreauw 2014-04-28T13:53:00

Wow! Very nice graphics. I like the movement too.

LD52 — Harvest

Horticulture by someone 2023-01-15T21:00:56Z

It's impressive that you made this game from scratch! The gameplay is very responsive and satisfying. I encountered an issue with the Linux build, but it's likely due to my window manager not respecting unresizable windows. As a result, I resized the game window to fill the screen, which unfortunately made the game unplayable on the first attempt. Other than that the game was highly playable. Very nice!

Cat Farm Panic ! by Yvanor 2023-01-09T08:40:54Z

Very cute graphics and paw-erful design! ;) #clawared

Space Harvest by lfreinoso 2023-01-08T23:09:17Z

When you run the executable, the UE5 requirements will automatically install. It's also compatible with Linux through Proton.

I didn't know it was possible to use Unreal Engine 5 for a 2D pixel art game, but it's really interesting to see it in action!

Wurmi by joewan 2023-01-08T23:32:34Z

On Firefox the game gives me an error: `The following features required to run Godot projects on the Web are missing: Cross Origin Isolation - Check web server configuration (send correct headers) SharedArrayBuffer - Check web server configuration (send correct headers)`.

It works correctly in Chromium.

The concept of the game is very interesting and I really enjoy the level design. The graphics are simple, but they fit the game well and do not distract from the gameplay. Overall, it's a great game!

Ol' Limberlegs by pvg 2023-01-09T13:12:16Z

I've managed to get 795 points in the first song and 917 in the second! Fun and challenging game. The decision to use two sets of inputs was a clever way to make a classic rhythm game more interesting. Well done!

Flowers in C by imyellowfish 2023-01-08T22:45:32Z

This is a pretty nice game and I had a lot of fun playing it! Also works great on Linux via Proton ;)

Chihuahua Space Harvest by Zyper 2023-01-09T07:47:11Z

@JCMonkey - Actually, there are alternative controls: W can be used for jumping, A and D for moving, E for interaction, and F for shooting. In future updates, I might add the option to shoot with the mouse as well.

Chihuahua Space Harvest by Zyper 2023-01-09T16:34:50Z

@loig I've added an alternative control option for the game, so hopefully you'll be able to play now. Check the game description for more details. @jcmonkey You can now shoot and harvest using the mouse as well!

Help! It's Raining Seeds by VaizAragorn 2023-01-09T21:38:22Z

I can confirm that the Linux build works correctly! :)

The concept and implementation of the game are very interesting. Although, it seems that you can't lose since you can just wait for the bird to drop hearts. Other than that, I think the game is really cool!

HARST by bradu 2023-01-15T21:35:35Z

Very nice graphics, atmosphere and sound design! Also the game is very immersive! Well done :)

Super Plantoid by dans17 2023-01-15T21:29:19Z

The graphics are very nice. I also appreciate the planting mechanic, as well as the addition of the coyote jump and variable jump height - it's a nice touch ;) Great entry!

Harvester Madness by Loig 2023-01-09T12:58:30Z

Well done! I really enjoyed playing it and found it to be very addictive. I also finished it! This game has the potential to be a really satisfying mobile game. One thing that could be improved is the length of the screen transitions, but overall it was a great game.

Shroom Hunter by Patsui 2023-01-09T21:33:13Z

Very addictive and really enjoy playing it! I've played it multiple times and it's fun to try out different strategies. I did notice a minor bug when buying upgrades though - the price check isn't inclusive, so you need to have more gold than the upgrade cost to be able to purchase it (or maybe I'm wrong). Other than that, I think the game is really cool!

Forked Up by Paroxysmal 2023-01-08T22:37:42Z

The gameplay is both clever and satisfying, with very impressive graphics!

Night of the Zombie Chickens by Jonqs 2023-01-15T20:41:24Z

Very satisfying! I like the graphics and overall atmosphere. The upgrade system is a great mechanic - very nice!

HARZARD OR HARVEST by MadR 2023-01-08T22:31:04Z

Great platformer with a responsive and visually appealing design. The tutorial is clever and effective at teaching through gameplay. To improve accessibility, it would be helpful to allow players to restart the level using not only the mouse but also the SPACE/X on their keyboard/controller.

Moon Harvester by owca 2023-01-08T22:59:06Z

The game has a great atmosphere, with nice music and a pleasant vibe. Pretty interesting game overall!

Works great on Linux via Proton ;)

Wakey Wakey by Jellybean 2023-01-09T12:12:40Z

I did it! It took me 117 seconds. Pretty fun and cute looking game. I like the graphics!

ASCII Farm by Kniffen 2023-01-12T13:27:04Z

It doesn't load in Firefox, but works correctly in Chromium. Very interesting concept! I like the idea of using both HTML elements and canvas for the game. The game is enjoyable and has potential for future improvements.

Buzzy Business by amarokczukay 2023-01-15T20:47:08Z

Interesting and funny concept! Also great sound design (especially the frog ending sound)! Well done!

Starchy Defender by FoggyDude 2023-01-17T18:08:57Z

Awesome game with very engaging gameplay loop! Well done! I beat with and the beetles didn't eat any of my potatoes ;)

Harvest Slave by Gotanod 2023-01-15T21:09:12Z

Very impressive! Nice and simple, I enjoyed playing with the camera and trying different views. Game reminded me of retro Atari games (like Airball). Well done!

Blocky Battleships by FrederoxDev 2023-01-09T12:39:20Z

Very nice concept! The building does have a few quirks (sometimes the autosnapping can be a bit confusing, and you can move your ship by moving an object with the mouse), but it's still a lot of fun to play. The idea of harvesting parts has a ton of potential and could easily be made into its own game (with more parts and maybe different resources to collect). Controlling the ship may take a bit of practice, but it's totally worth it! All in all, great game!

Real Harvest or not??? by Poietic Ruby 2023-01-09T08:30:02Z

Delightful and highly enjoyable!

Final Harvest by GreyNovemberGames 2023-01-09T11:08:29Z

The graphics in this game are solid 5.0/5.0! It's an excellent game.

Imp by Savidiy 2023-01-08T23:16:12Z

The mood of the game is very nice and the gameplay is easy to understand. I really enjoy the concept and it seems like there is potential to add new features in the future. Overall, it's a really cool game!

BUGGED by MangoWorks 2023-01-09T17:20:45Z

Wow! This game has a voiceover, which is impressive. The gameplay has a clever concept and is challenging, which makes it enjoyable to play. You could definitely make a full game out of this idea.

A Small Village by MostLikely 2023-01-08T23:25:47Z

This is a visually stunning game with excellent asthetics. The background color of the page even matches the game's background, which is a nice touch ;) The gameplay is engaging and challenging, and I only had one issue with the tree that was mentioned by other commenters.

Overall, it's a really good game!

Down to Earth by Chum Chum 2023-01-09T17:02:16Z

TFW I realized that I didn't have to press the fire button repeatedly and could hold it down instead! ;) The game is very well-designed and enjoyable. The tutorial isn't even necessary because the gameplay is self-explanatory. Very fun and satisfying, yet challenging game!

The Gluten Farm by rockford 2023-01-09T08:50:53Z

Pretty fun and challenging. I managed to beat it in 92 seconds, but unfortunately, I massacred one chicken. Overall, the game is very enjoyable.

LD56 — Tiny Creatures

Space Treasure Hunter by Zyper 2024-10-28T10:11:34Z

@icxon Thank you for playing and for the feedback! :smile: Bunnies actually produce blue bullets periodically, so I might need to indicate this better to the player :thinking: Graphics are done exactly as you described, regular pixel art and pixel-art font, but upscaled with an HQ4X shader.

Space Treasure Hunter by Zyper 2024-10-29T21:57:42Z

@ariast Thank you very much for your kind words! :smile:
