I think I'll continue these even after the official event is over. Originally I planned pumping these recommendations out in a bi-weekly pattern, but that was simply too much for me to handle. If anything goes according to plan, I'll do three more for the ld47 until I finally shut up for a while :D

Have a wonderful weekend ^_^


If you’re interested in more great games I found, do take a look at my previous highlights

Thank you for the Plague Friend Love!!!

Hi Ludum Dare!

I wanted to thank you all so much for playing my game and giving me such kind and supportive feedback! This was my first game jam and my first time developing a game ever, and I was able to get the required 20 ratings for a score, wow! I've been having a blast playing and rating the other entries, I'm really looking forward to seeing the final results.

This has been such a fun and positive experience, and I'm looking forward to participating in the next one too.

If you have any time in these final few days, I'd love to hear what you think of my entry. I've been putting a lot of work into the post jam version in the past few weeks, adding music, sound effects, animations, "dynamic celestial bodies", and secret dialogues to discover.

If you drop a comment with your game, I'd love to exchange feedback.

Thanks again!

Heck, lets make it a bribe! Rate our game and I'll doodle something from yours! (I'll have to limit this if we do get a lot of ratings. I'm only human :I)

We had a lot of fun participating in Ludum Dare 47. There was a total of three of us who worked on this project. I invited my younger brother to participate in his first game jam ever. We had a lot of fun creating this time looping, dungeon crawler.

I want to thank everyone who left motivating comments and critical feedback on our submission.

Please check out Chrono Crack for yourself, and let us know what you think. We really appreciate the feedback!

Chrono Crack is a top down, dungeon shooter with a time looping mechanic. We created time rifts that teleport you into the future back at the beginning of the dungeon. As you travel forward in time, pillars and doorways fall apart opening new parts of the dungeon. As a secondary objective, we added coins and item upgrade shops that make your gun even more powerful.

My favorite upgrade by far is “multi-shot” which turns your gun into an automatic shotgun that obliterates the zomboogers like butter.

We have some new stuff coming in our post-jam update: - New art - Improved dungeon layout - Smoother movement - New enemy type: acid spitter - Reverse time portals

Happy weekends!

Hello, everyone! I hope your weekends are really good.

Well, it's almost over and my goal "take 100 ratings" not achieved. But still 55 for the first time it's not bad, isn't it? So thank you so much who gave us them.

But...

Today I'm going to play and rate games, who didn't received their 20th. Come and join me! Because I think that every game deserve to be rated and get a score at the end.

With love, creators of https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/47/sinners-hotel

Hello , Adventurer!

You’re an adventurer which is stuck in a magic ball, and try to escape all floors of the tower. Bruh.png Good luck, adventurer. https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/47/the-cursed-tower

If you play my game, i will play yours !

There's only only 2 days left to due date, and some games still didn't get 20 votes so we can help each other !

Here's my game to play : https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/47/the-cursed-tower

Drop your games link in the comments.

Almost the end ... need a bit more ratings!

Hi everyone!

I'm sorry to ask you that late, and don't love a lot to do that, but I woke up today, saw there is only two days till the end of the ratings, and we still don't have 20 ratings, just need a few more!

Here is our game :

https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/47/speedy-spider-vs-fishy-fish

Cover Art

Speedy Spider VS Fishy Fish a game as we do usually : wanting to give you some unusual game-play experience and to challenge you a bit (some say "hard", but we don't like this word :upsidedown:). Only this time we had an artist with us, so even more attractive :okhand:

So, give it a try :wink:

There's a little issue with the rating system

Now don't get me wrong, I'm not mad at anyone and I want people to make games however they want. There's a chance that I don't know something important so please correct me if I'm wrong.

Ok, there's a design error that I've noticed in the last month. My friend and I made a game this jam and it was awesome as always, but due to school and other stuff, we could only rate about 43 games total (about 21 each). Now, we got 40 ratings and that's ok, it's a 1:1 ratio and I get it. But there are games made by about 5+ people, which means that if each team member has made the same effort as we did (played and rated 20 games), they will get to 100 ratings +-. That's a little bit broken because it leaves games like us in the back, is there a factor that takes into account the team size?

Again, I get this isn't the point of this jam and there's no prize at the end, I have a blast playing games and they're really awesome. I have nothing against big teams, they usually make super good games. :)

So, is there a balance for it?

I'll rate your games!

I'd like to rate some games, so leave your games in the comments and I'll play as many as I can. Also, I'd really appreciate if you left feedback on my game Suitcase Panic.

Thanks!

Time Crash available for Android

JAM is about to end and the complete version of "(Doctor Simon's) Time Crash" is now available in Goolge Play for android devices. Thanks you for playing and reviewing, your feedback has been very useful in the final version. I have used some of your ideas: - An ending. Now you can return to the present. - Special features. It's not just a memory game anymore. - Bonus stages. A break to recover some energy. - Rewards. - New backgrounds, more figures and items. - Advanced score system, and the possibility of making combos.
