Does youtube do some big compression on videos? I just uploaded my first video and the moving parts have quite strong compression artifacts (while the original video has not, recorderd with fraps).

Inferno is a wave-based arena shooter set in a hellish realm where you fight hordes of demons and robots. You can fight from a wide-range of weapons, including a Laser Beam Staff and a Shotgun.
Inferno was created by Zyro, Jackass and myself. If you are interested in playing the game, or listening to the soundtrack go to the links below.
So I made Pixel Driver for LD JAM: https://casualgamesnu.itch.io/pixel-driver
But I've keep working on it and would like to upload new versions. My plan is to use "LDJAM version" in the name of the JAM version and in parallel use another name and version and make it very clear in the download instructions.
Is that allowed?

Hi there ! Fory first ludum dare I made a little retro runner where you control a gear based robot ! You can go check it out here https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/39/runn-score Thanks for all the feedbacks and ratings I had ! It's amazing ! Ratings and feedbacks are still welcome ! Here is some screenshots ! ->
It's very lonely and dark in space
All of the projects I previously started were never finished. Not from the lack of resources or skills, but from just how insanely high I used to set the bar. It was always my mind, nothing else, keeping me from finishing. To be fair, even for this project (https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/39/comms), I set the goal a little bit above my reach: somewhat AAA look, VO, high quality sound effects, etc. I'm yet to get a voice actor.
The lit interiors look cozy and safe...
...Contrasting with uncomfortably dense darkness
One important thing I learned is to prioritize getting the project released over hitting overly high quality standards ("overly high" for an one-person developer). This means that some things have to be replaced or removed, e.g. I had to replace VO with text boxes that narrate what's happening in the game. I think it doesn't break the immersion as much as mute subtitles would, and it doesn't leave player wondering what's going on.
The story is explained through text boxes
Now I'm getting back to some of my previous projects, and my mind now seems to be able to draw a development path that has an actual end, and considers solutions that get the thing done timely, instead of doing something overly ambitious that takes indefinitely long (e.g. writing a level generator for a game, going crazy with features for it, never finishing it, forgetting there even was a game in the first place).
That said, do I consider Comms finished-finished? No. I'll keep adding more to it, take it to Steam, and hopefully start making money. But besides Comms, I've a lot of projects to get back to and finish.
Follow me on twitter (@biocrust) for updates!
Ok so we are very proud of saying that based on all your critiques we made an 1.1 version of the game now you can run whyle you attack, walk for both sides and the best thing we implemented a way better camera we also removed some minor bugs nothing special but thats what we have for now hope you guys like the new version https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/39/drain-2

Hi all!
That's my first my post, I hope that I will join in next edition of LD :) .
I am a developer of Fat Fireman - very simple game, which I like but it doesn't look as I want it. But overall, I made that in 16 hours with all assets, so I'm somewhat impressed :) - but later I saw your submissions and I was shocked about high level of your work. Wow!
I want to thank you for all your comments, ratings and feedback - you are great, and changed my vision of game development. I work as an intern in gamedev company, and for a long time I have in my mind that I MUST develop games to be in market. But making games should be fun :). Ludum Dare was my first experience for a long time, where I made a game without stress (or with good stress - to finish game ;P ). I made a game, help my parents, visiting girlfriend, spending time with family during weekend. And it was fun - as rating your games which was great experience and I feel that I belong to some type of community. Thank you again, developing games could be fun again :D.
This is Fade. A story about doing what's right despite all odds.
If you're into atmospheric games, I think you'll like it. I had you in my mind when doing it.
Play it at: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/39/fade
We put a lot of effort to make you like it! GAME: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/39/scale-of-life
another 3% of games are ranked from yesterday!
Thanks to Zack West @zwrawr who created some wonderful live charts of our rating progress, you can see some examples of his charts below.
Keep up the good work: playing, rating, and leaving quality feedback. Remember if you need ratings, the best way to get them is to get out and play, rate, and leave quality feedback. The sorting algorithm does a really good job!

The basic idea of this game is quite simple: you play as an astronaut that have to carry all the task in a spaceship: pilot, fire laser and produce power. What makes this game so ingenious is the fact that you're alone and than you can just do one think at a time.
Want to move the spacecraft ? Play the hero in the command room
Want to fire laser? place him the the turret room etc..
Try it! It really worth it !
Want to be reviewed here ? You need to have less than 20 votes, be web playable and have a good quality game. I do one post per day so I wont be able to post every game. Send me an email at savemygametoday@gmail.com

First of all, thank you all for ratings and feedback! This is my first game, so I appreciate the opportunity to learn from this!
I'm happy to say that I've made enhancements to my game based on the great feedback provided by you folks here at LD39. I'm hoping that the post-jam version will pose more of a challenge. Whether you've played it before, or you've yet to see it... I'd love to hear what you think! :-)

If you haven't ranked my game yet, just know that there have been several meaningful changes to the base game since my jam entry. You can see what's different in the Changelog (see V.1.1a and anything after that).
We made a trailer for our game, because why not? If you haven't played it yet, you now have a glimpse of what's to come.
