The bomble mines by pune007

[raw]
made by pune007 for Ludum Dare 48 (JAM)

This game was made for ludum-dare-48 in 1.5 days. This is the basic story cause I could not add it in the game. The story is that you fell into mine with bombles, a mix of bubbles and bombs and you have to go deeper and deeper to get out.

I hope you partially like the game cause its not the most well-made or great game but I had a terrific time making it and that's what matters.

@pune007 good graphics, however i would have quite liked if the jump was a bit better

Nice design and simple, fluid, gameplay.
Sadly missing a bit of a background track which does lower the mood a bit (for me).

Nice concept. It's fun to jump over enemies to jump higher!

Unfortunately short gameplay. I was expecting more levels.

Good job :smile:

I really enjoyed this! The minimalist visual style is cool and has a lot of personality-- reminds me a bit of the TI-81 calculator games we used to trade in high school. Good stuff. :)

Nice little game, a concept we've seen many times with a slight change of jumping on the enemy to get higher and further, I enjoyed this it's something I can see my self attempting again and again and the visuals are great.

I reached the end. Fun game! Some of the levels were pretty hardcore, which was rad. Also I enjoyed the spinning animation when you jump.

A little more horizontal speed would have been nice. I also noticed that you can fall forever if you jump to the left of the stage.

All in all, well done. A great entry and congrats on being able to make your first whole game in 48 hours - it's a big achievement :)

@otresnjak For a second, i was like "wait a calculator" and then remembered the video where a person made doom on that piece of software. I'm happy you liked it.

@carlos-alexandre-zgierski Haha, thanks for your kind words

@revilo I'm very happy you liked it.

@Maple Thank you very much for your constructive feedback. I really appreciate you liked my small game and I will fix the issues with it in a small update.

Great and stylistic art style with a fun little mechanic. But I'd definitely wanted to hear some music and more sfx, I believe those would improve the overall quality of the game. Also, I wanted to play more, but levels were a bit short. But it's still very fun game to play, keep up the good work!

@alexey-kuzovkov I am happy you liked it.

@yigit-doruk Yeah, I had added sfx but scrapped them at the last minute as they did not work properly. But I am going to polish and make the game better in general. But still Thank you for your feedback

I really enjoyed the game and the visuals!

The controls felt solid, the character felt responsive and the jump wasn't "floaty". Sometimes jumping on the bombles was registered even though I felt like it shouldn't have been (hit it very close to the edge for example). It feels like the game could make a really nice precision platformer if you added a few more levels and a few more mechanics. Maybe add another character movement (wall-jump, dashing, double jump etc.), some enemies or other obstacles for example, to make new levels have an extra layer of depth!

@korfi Ah I kept the hitboxes big so that it would be fair. Turns out it was too fair haha

Thank you for your kind words. I am planning on making this a small mobile game and am going to add lot of more levels and stuff in the future.

Nice game! Tight controls and good levels. The only thing that I might do differently would be to have some sort of visual indication of how high your jump will go when you step on the bombs. As far as I know, there are two types of bombs : one that sends you higher about 3~4 times than your default jump, and one that sends you about twice as high. I think it would be more fitting for a precision platformer if you could differentiate one from the other; I found it a bit hard sometimes to gauge my jump. The character feels a bit heavy, but its movement and physics are consistent so it doesn't matter too much. Overall great job! I also found the black and white pixel style graphics endearing.

Hi, nice entry! The bombles pattern were not easy to predict in my opinion, their moves are a bit to "sharp". Even if the hit box is more than fair, it sometimes feels clunky to play. On more thing that is kinda misleading is letting a "blank" spot on the right of the screen just after a jump. What I mean is it's not, in my opinion, a good idea not too show the player where he's going to land.

As some people mentioned, there's a little lack of sound, but I think that's a minor problem for a game like this. I really appreciated the art and the naimation. Even if I think the "bouncing" animation is kind of bugged, indeed the animation continues even after landing, I guess that's not intentionnal.

Overall, that's a good entry! Keep up the good work :)

Good retro graphics and excellent sound effect for the bombles. I only disliked a little bit the player's jump height, but nothing major. Good job!

hey man, i finished the game and I liked! nice graphics, maybe to add a music, it would be very nice. Also, you could do a less linear stages, to going down/top. good ideia, congrats =)

@bionikmonster Thanks for the constructive feedback. I have to agree the animations are a bit buggy and the few levels are not the most well-designed but I'll try to fix the flaws in an update for the game

Nice little game, nice simplistic graphics with great animations, especially for the bombs. I like the feeling when you jump on the enemies, but the falling speed feels a bit floaty and slow.

Overall, good job!

Cool game, simple mechanics, clean control. Great game for someone who plays a lot of platformers. wish there was more depth too it though, or larger puzzle like levels using the bounce off mechanic. There was another game I played where you can spawn bubbles too and control the bubbles. Just Ideas on how to expand a decent idea.

really nice game mate - i finished the whole game and had really fun playing it :)
controls works like a charme :)

It would be cool if you add some more music, sfx etc. - but i also saw your new player sprite in the news feed and this looks pretty good.

Keep on the good work :)
