My first game jam project ever to get published! I really wanted to enter the Compo, but ran out of time, so I poured my heart into the Jam instead. I hope you enjoy the final result!

Please... you can even play in Web (HTML5)!

When you start a jam you often get ideas. I didnt had a really good idea - some small ideas but nothing that popped into my head and obsessed me with it. However i got some side perks from my family: - a sambal oleg glas - a image of special cat - a cat who puke

Well all this stuff is in the game. So what is this game about ?

Simple to tell is you are a small white cat who eats all kinds of stuff. You ask collector master cat who gives you quests. When you finished these quests you get a sticker for your album.

Simple as it sounds it might be tricky - you are able to just give the cat a part of the quest and some items are filling the puke bar faster then others.

To be honest: it is not my best game but it is a small game about cats. The SFX i did with my voice and audacity :D

If you wanna play it here it would be nice - i am preparing a HTML5 version "soon" (i have some issues with the healthbar - drawimagestrechted seemed to be bugged on html5). But for now you can only play on windows. Sorry for that.

Play it HERE

Hey, you! Yes, YOU! I am finding it highly interesting that a lot of games published for this theme feature mushrooms in one or more ways. Honestly did not expect that. Although it is a popular thing to collect. Take a look at all these beautiful drawings of mushrooms. FOUR of them actually made it into my game. Can you find them all while taking a cozy walk and shooting some photos?

Head over to Trailside Mycologist and find out! (You won't have a hard time, they're not very well hidden ...)

Take a little trip back to the 80s in our game “Hex to the Max.” Synthwave meets a trio of magicians consisting of a bug collector (sorry, a hexapod catcher), a necromancer, and a hex code robot, meets lots of hexahedrons.

As a young apprentice, you want to overcome the challenge set by the three. Place creatures, multiply the points, and collect them!

was really happy with my submission this year "Galactic Data Collector", wish I had more time to flesh out some narrative elements and make a better tutorial. Please give it a try and a rating!

I was hoping we'd have a working web version by now but alas... still I want to shout from the rooftops about the wonderful work my team did! We invite you to live out the tcg collectors dream of physically beating up the scalpers who keep buying out all the damn cards just to sell them later. Then, it's time to open your packs to see if you've found the cards your son actually wanted for his birthday, complete with card designs from 4 different artists!

Will it take you 1 day to get them all, or a month? Both of these scenarios happened at some point.

Windows only (for now) but web version is coming soon!

For the longest time, I wanted to develop a supply-chain city builder, similar to the Settlers or Anno game. I was pretty excited when I saw the theme suggestions, as several of them seemed to fit nicely (connections, combine, etc.).

With the Collector theme, rather than going with the obvious path of collecting resources, I actually had the idea for a game where you don’t build the city directly, but instead influence it through various taxes. Tariffs encourage more producers of imported goods to come to the city, while property tax discourages land-intensive buildings such as farms.

At the end of the first day, I let my partner play it:

“I don’t understand what I’m supposed to do.”

The game used to let you set tariffs and income tax with sliders and then click Go — at that point, the village does its thing: producing and importing goods, converting resources, and satisfying the people’s needs for food, drink, and clothing.

“It doesn’t really feel like a game.”

There was a ton of information on screen — the price of goods including taxes both internally and on the market, the money each person has, and the market demand for various goods, etc.

“It’s not fun.”

I had created a game you needed to play with a spreadsheet. I needed to pivot.

Instead of doubling down on the simulation aspect, I focused on the immediate tax-collection — you run around collecting taxes generated by trade. I like the end result — it accidentally became a satire as you siphon money from other people’s hard work, and you do need to make some considerations about how to tax and upgrade to reach the 2,500 goal.

You can try it here.

Had a lot of problems with the web build, nearly missed the deadline for the jam, but after some head scratching and voodoo rituals I manadged to get it working on itch. So now there is no need to download any sketchy files)) Pls give it a try. https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/58/crown-and-taxes Thanks Ludum Dare for existing and everyone for participating.

Do you like candy? Collect as much candy as possible either from pumpkin bowls or steal from other cats, as the grim reapurr! The more candy you get the higher rank you will get in the end, are you going for the safe lower rank or are you gonna take the risk for that rare S Rank ;)

You can hunt for candy right here now

PS don't forget to upgrade at the shop in the graveyard ;)

Hey, all. Does anyone have a mobile friendly game to share?

Currently AFK and eager to play some nice LD games.

I think this Jam went pretty well, I was a little rushed but got everything in that i wanted to add, go try it out sometime!

The Collector has a very strange fixation with jars... But I'm sure if you follow his orders you will be fine.

Care for some bolt action? You get to shoot a crossbow and a grapple gun. It's not easy, but before long you'll be grappling arrows out of the air to collect bolts and shooting them back at the enemies in no time.
