Ludum Dare 30 Cryptid Showcase – Part 2: With Connecting Worlds, Tribe of the Giant, & Binary System

It’s all fun and games until somebody crashes the Apollo Mail Rocket into a Tribal Giant on a cannabalistic rampage….. HUZZAH! It’s time for more showcasing and game reviewing with Cryptid Showcase Volume 2. Playing through another set of three delicious games. Gotta say I would not have guessed that little tribal creatures would taste like butterscotch, go figure =D.

Showcase Part 4! – All About Potato Salad, StarLord, & Lucid Dreaming

When one finds themselves adrift in space… snacking can be a very important past time. Especially when it’s potato salad. Especially when such a snack has had a massive Kickstarter recently. Just be sure you aren’t near any potato related piggy cults when you make it. But we have to be quick. We have Spirit Crows and StarLord coming over to snack with us. Just be very careful you don’t accidentally fall into the Dead World or somebody elses Dreams!

The Games Showcased:

StarLord by Lowcade

Lucid by Fisholith

This Little Piggy by Infection Crew

Cryptid Showcase – Part 5 – Ghosts of Mistakes Past & Tangled Dimensions!

Who would have figured Hal 9000 for a cheaty space cheater at Rock Paper Scissors? At least he can sort of help us fire the Genesis Rocket.. Dangit, who opened up an inter-dimensional portal filled with puzzles?

LD 31 Showcase – Part 2 – Demon Lantern Combat, RGB Minimalist Shooter, & Bugged Out Spider Bites

One does not simply escape a roving pack of night dwelling demons. At least not without a Coleman lantern that I got at the swap meet last night. But that can be a bit too spooky for my blood. Thankfully we’ve got a part of fun and very goofy shooters to relax and drive us mad before bed time eh?

Hello!

Ludum Dare 31 – Part 3 – Lich Lordz, Snow Need to Worry, & Juoi the Giant Slayer

Nothing quite says wednesday (other than “Hump Day”) quite like fighting off lich spawned demons, helping a friendly snowman keep his head, and slaying some colossal ancient war giants. That or just waking up to pancakes. But why not have both?

Thanks for testing games :-)

Ludum Dare 31 – Finale Part 1 – Top 2 Overall 72hr Jam Games

Decided to do something a little different than my regular Ludum Coverage. That means giving the top overall ranking games in each category (Compo & 72hrs) some more LP love. Diving into some rogueish inspired Escape Character & The Street Artist Stylings of 90 Second Portrait.

 

Escape Character by Zi

90 Second Portrait by Simon Larsen

 

Next on my Radar is the Top 2 in the Compo Category.

Larry Does Ludum 32 – Episode 2 – Garden of Strife & The X-11 Robot

In the future one does not simply eat the plants or grow them for fun, some of them make handy weapons for defeating the eye demons. Should that whole ancient Atlantian plant technology fail, feel free to call on X-11 the gardening murder robot. He’s got a new turbo leaf blower or something.
