My LD41 entry is Honest Dan's Trout if you were interested in trying it out.

Last 2 days before result!

With so little time left, here is a shameless plug for our game!

It is a tower defence game where you drive around squashing squishy bugs.

In the meantime, I will try to give some of the games in Danger some ratings, or you can post your game below so I can try them out

Eek, still need 10 votes!

Was a little late to the voting :flushed:, looks like I've only half the votes needed to enter, if anyone can spare a minute (it's really short) and play my game that would be greatly appreciated! Leave a comment if you're still under 20 and I'll give yours a play in return, don't force feedback if you don't wanna, just leave a :red_car: emoji or something random.

Technically I didn't finish my gameplay, but I'd still like feedback on graphics and mood as I spent (perhaps to my own detriment) a lot of time on them, here's an image of the game.

I was trying to fuse tower defence with a card game and... programming a card game is perhaps too much for my rather slow programming abilities :stuckouttongue:. Not an issue though, LD is always a learning experience and now I know if I it's too complicated to explain in less than 30 seconds on day 1, it's too complicated to make in 2 days, haha.

Looking forward to play some of the winners, certainly think I've already played a few.

See you all at LD42 :grin:

EDIT: A game link would've been a good idea...

Survaby: Early concepts and ideas

In this picture I want to show some of the concepts prior to the development of Survaby. When I make a jam, I like to spend long times thinking about the game we are going to develop. I think it's more important to spend time on the concept than to start immediately.

As you can see in the image, there are several games concepts. One of them is a sketch of a soccer-races game. In the upper part, the original idea of ​​Survaby appears, where you had the cradles scattered around the room, not as it was finally in the game, grouped in one of the sides. By the way, early name for Survaby was "Baby Care Apocalypse". Wich one do you prefer?

Guess I shouldn't leave playing & rating to last minute

Check out my game :heart: Win My Heart: Battle Royale :heart: and help me get to 20 ratings: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/win-my-heart-battle-royale-dating-sim

Happy to play and rate your game if you post it as a comment!

Let's get everyone to 20 ratings before the deadline :kissing_heart:

Multi-resolution support, and rate-for-rate!

Now announcing: the first post-LD update for The Mad King's Tournament!

This patch contains the much-requested fullscreen mode and multi-resolution support, and also fixes a bug where not enough food was spawning! Enjoy!

I plan to release another, much bigger, update later tonight that I've been working on as well! New features will include greatly-improved AI and combat! And now that I'm done with finals and graduation and all that mess, I'll be hopefully releasing some new updates every day until LD ends, including planned features like Skills, Magic, and Crafting!

Also, in recognition of the rapidly-approaching deadline, I am taking this opportunity to announce that EVERY SINGLE PERSON who rates (and comments) on The Mad King's Tournament in the next 48 hours will receive a rating and comment from me as well! We're almost there, let's get other's games past the 20-rating marks!

For those that haven't seen or played it yet, The Mad King's Tournament is a combination of a text-based adventure and a battle royale! You wake up in a mysterious arena and must fight hunger, thirst, and 99 other competitors to make it out alive!

Game Dev Tip #1

If your game has a bug that can't be fixed, call it a feature

Woah! I need 5 more ratings!

AHH! Someone help a me out and play my game! There's only one day left and I still need 5 WHOLE RATINGS! #SendHelp https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/nintendating!

Last chance to rate MechaSnek

Only a couple of days left to rate LD41 games, or to beg for a few more ratings! :)

Here's the team entry that I did a lot of the code for - It's snake. With guns. And some fairly shiny graphics, for a 3-day jam game:

(Native PC build recommended, but there is a WebGL version. Requires a reasonably decent GPU...)

Going to be Playing/Rating Games for the Next Few Hours

Let me know if you want me to play your game! Also feel free to check my game out, I'm only a few ratings away from 20 (and I always appreciate the feedback on my games!)
