Our little strategical puzzle-action game Atomic Rock Paper Scissors just got a major update post-jam!

PLAY IT HERE

Plenty of new features and tweaks, and major gameplay changes that make it much more exciting and interesting. A ton of extra polish went into it! We even got a fancy intro now! :D

New features

The update includes:

• Better controls: More intuitive controls! Thanks everyone for the feedback! (Note: We tried the "flick" many suggested, but it felt a bit odd and clunky. We'll try it again in a future release!)

• Better gameplay: Many additions to the gameplay make it more challenging and interesting, like a move-based level system, larger explosions, accumulating nukes and a better difficulty ramp system.

• Improved graphics: new more satisfying explosions, smoother animations, a fancy title screen/intro!

• Special effects: puffs of smoke, combo numbers, more impactful movements and animations.

• Shiny new interface: featuring some pretty looking chrome numbers!

• Music & sound effects: a proper soundtrack (within my unskilled abilities!) and many more sounds!

• Specials & combos: a ton of cool little effects that make everything you do more exciting
• More rewards: the game is now chock-full of little score bonuses, rewarding better players
• Funny remarks: inspired by pinball machine displays, the game now teases you and describes what's going on!
• Easter eggs: many little Easter eggs are scattered throughout the game now!
• A new challenging block type: you'll have to play to find out!
• Mobile support: It should work now! If not, let me know in the comments.

Challenges

The game was coded from scratch for the Jam, the custom engine and all, which was pretty reckless for a Ludum Dare game! It doesn't help that we only narrowed down our idea nearly a day into the Jam and that I've been behind the times with JavaScript!

Working with a custom engine and rushed-in spaghetti code with outdated coding norms makes everything much more difficult, however. Even little features like a title screen or basic user interface become a huge hassle! So I did my best to fill in these gaps these past few days.

It's probably super inefficient and buggy, but it should be playable just fine. If there are any major bugs, please let me know!

Leaderboard?

One thing we're still hoping to add is a leaderboard, but we are unsure if there is even demand for it for such a one-shot Ludum Dare game. It would require a significant amount of extra work due to our custom engine, especially with a proper backend that's not trivial to post fake results. So we're still on the fence about it!

If you would really like a leaderboard, please let us know!

Post Mortem

Over the next few days me and @m1nus will be covering a few of the design decisions we've made, and document our struggles as novice game makers in approaching this game! Stay tuned!

Future

Over the past weeks we've come to be quite fond and proud of our little game. Me and @m1nus decided to save our best ideas for a future remake of it, using a proper full-featured game engine and higher quality graphics. So expect a mobile & desktop version of Atomic Rock Paper Scissors soon! :)

Go play it!

So if you have some time to spare: PLAY ATOMIC ROCK PAPER SCISSORS (POST-JAM UPDATE)!

Have fun! ☢ ᗝ ☐ X

Hello. Today I bought a bundle with games. Inside this one there is a key for a game which I have - The Flame In The Flood. I give this key for free, but you have to find the last letter according a clue. The first one wins a game :)

If you are in the Danger Zone feel free to leave the link to your game in the comments :)

There is so little time left. Help others get to 20 rantings. If you don't know where the Danger Zone is, here's the link:

I ran out of original screen shots. Here, have... this...

Play it here

Turns out it's quite easy to get lost in work and miss rating part of LDjam. Project turned out to be a bit fun, so it would be a shame not to get 20 votes.

KickGum is a topdown game where you control reactor's temperature while getting annoyed by AIs

We finally fixed all known bugs, especially tricky sound bug in chrome
And now we need your help to get at least 20 ratings
We would greatly appreciate your ratings and comments and for sure will play, rate and comment your game in return
Visit our burning goblings and stunned imps =)

I just wanted to say thank You.

Ludum Dare has been a blast.

And I have had so much fun reading the comments and feedback(good or bad) You guys give.

So thank You and I hope You have a good time as well.

Hallo fellows,

we would need three more ratings for our game.

The game can be played in the web player or can be downloaded for windows.

It was a bunch of work, and quite an ambitious project, so we hope we can get our placings :-)

The game has also some nice voice acting in it :-)

Best and thank you for your help!

Life took over and here we are, almost at the end of ratings! Please help me get to 20 by playing my seemingly simple but surprisingly challenging puzzle game!

Thank you guys for all the support, votes and feedback you've given!

It's the last 72 hours of voting and we've acquired almost 100 votes in each category, which we can't appreciate enough. The responses we got exceeded our expectations, with so many of you giving us really valuable feedback. If you want to help us get the 100 votes milestone, here's the link to our game :tada:

We are very pleased with the feedback on our game. We really enjoyed making it and playing it ourselves.

Try it if you haven't seen it yet. It's going to be tough! https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/49/handle-with-care

Update

Many players found the end of SplashX challenging, so I have released a balancing update that reduces the difficulty of the final section.

If you haven't already given the game a try, I would appreciate your feedback on the update! https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/49/splashx

Thank You!

(Virtual modem included)

I just got back from some traveling that started half way through the compo, have now rated 26 games, but need some ratings to get mine over the 20 ratings mark!

Play in your browser here. Touch-friendly (weird, for a old-school, text-based, BBS-style game, I know ^_^).

I actually recommend using keyboard, not mouse, but the recording reads better with the mouse ;).

Any other old-school, text-based games people have stumbled upon that I need to play?

I'm now live on Twitch for the next few hours to play your Ludum Dare games! I'm happy to give constructive feedback or just have fun with it. I’ll also be rating every game I play (but not while I'm live). If you want me to play your game, type !submit url/of/your/game in the Twitch chat. I can't promise I'll be able to get to every game submitted to me, but I'll do as many as I can in the time I have. I hope to see you there!

If you submitted to me during a previous stream and I didn't have time to get to yours (I know there's a lot of you), just let me know you're there in the chat, and I can give your game priority.

If I don't get to your game today, I'll still be trying to play through and rate as much of my backlog as I can for the next two nights... just off-stream.

P.S.: My entry is a game called Reactor. Feel free to check it out!

Please consider playing my compo entry, "Theory", while there's still time!

Escape from the alien robots by shifting between being alive and dead!

My game "A wild sheep chase" only needs a few more ratings to see the results. https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/49/a-wild-sheep-chase

Thank you very much!
