Custom HTML5 Launcher

UPDATE: PLEASE CHECK THIS OUT INSTEAD


I wanted to host both the original and post-jam versions of my HTML5 game on the same itch.io page. Unfortunately, this isn't something itch supports right now :(

I decided to hack together a little launcher menu with HTML/CSS, which takes care of the job. launcher.gif

here's the code if anyone wants to do something similar! https://gist.github.com/cgsdev0/76c91d9e603c82544f880ea3da14cb02

it's really simple - essentially you just need to upload a zip with this structure to itch, with both actual bundles in their respective folders: structure.png

and voila!

Let me help you reach 20 votes. a last second saving attempt!

I see a lot of people that are yet to get 20 votes, and while I think most votes you can get are usually at the start of the voting days we can still work something out and help those with (as we say here in morocco "one leg in life, another in the grave") lol that sounds spooky never mind.

comment your games and I'll play the first 10 or so (sorry I get mentally tired from playing too many games). as long as your game is lower than 20 votes.

now I don't really need votes myself as my game have passed that number in the first days but heres the deal we should make: I'll play your game BUT as you can tell I can only give 1 vote which isn't much, so to make up for this limitation I highly recommend that you also play other games in the comments, at least 1 or 2. this way we can all help each other more efficiently and make everyone happy!

Last chance to rate our game! :) + Postjam version preview

We made a little platformer where you teleport between dimensions every ten seconds. The browser version has the original game as it was completed by the 72 hour deadline, but under Downloads, you will also find the version with checkpoints, which is a lot less frustrating to play.

We'll also be uploading an extended postjam version very soon! This one has an extended level design, improved scenery, more polished and less punishing gameplay, and even a fourth spell you can unlock. There's also a little Easter Egg some fans of old 90s adventure games may recognise...

Sneak peek of the extended postjam version: light2.png dark1.png

Behind the scenes look at level design. Circled in red are the sections that are entirely NEW in the postjam version, but existing sections have also been tweaked a little to be more clear or less punishing.. The solution to the puzzles hasn't changed, but they no longer require such precise timing. level.png

The time for summing up is running out

Безымянный2.jpg Безымянный.png Безымянный3.jpg Today our team will learn the results of the work done. We take this project responsibly, so we went to watch the games of other teams. Internet the way, come and see! https://ilya096.itch.io/iamnotedible

Rate: https://ldj.am/$301404

We will be very grateful for the ratings and feedback.

Remeber kids, there is a danger zone!

A friendly reminder that there is a "Danger" filter. As stated:

This is the rescue filter. Everything with less than 20 ratings sorted top to bottom. Items on the first page are typically 1-2 rating away, so help them out!

I'll be playing some games in this category. If everyone does that, maybe we can make lots of people happy!

Also, here is a song about the danger zone for you to enjoy :grin: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8Jzt2yWCTM

Not enough ratings :)

Heyy so i've been really busy lately and only rated 3 games so far, so i probably don't really deserve it, but if anyone wants to try and save my game (i currently have 3 ratings), feel free to

Play Switchy Glitchy Arcade in your browser!

It's a glitchy arcade machine that switches game every 10 secs :)

Need last-minute ratings?

Link your game in the comments and I'll play it after I get back from work!

My brother and I made a metroidvania where you respawn every 10 seconds, keeping your progress. We'd GREATLY appreciate a quick rating. Thanks! :heart:

Hello LD folks

I just wanted to make this post to thank you all so much for playing and rating my game!!!

It has about 100 ratings, and i've never thought it'd be possible. I am just speechless. This was my first participation in a jam, and one of my first "real" game, so all of your comments really encourage and warm me!

I loved participate in LD51, because it's challenging in a good way, people's feedback are very kind, and it is just incredible to play that many great games, and to know that my own game has been played by many people too… It was really a super nice journey, and now i can't wait to be on January 6th to participate in the next one!

So again, thank you!

We have reached our goal!

We got and gave 100 grades!

Thanks to everyone who played and appreciated our game :heart:

Oh no, I need more ratings! Are you in the same boat?

Hello! Are you looking for ratings? I do rates for rates on my fast-paced arcade game! Hit a ball into enemies to kill them while every 10 seconds more enemies appear and more events happen! It's like air hockey, but much more lethal! I hope you play, rate and enjoy my game so I can do the same with yours!

Comment high scores too, I love to see how people are getting on with the game!
