I haven't made a game in forever. Let's goooooooo

I thought "Depths" would mean 90% of the games were either going to be underwater or underground.

And I was right. So, I'd like the congratulate everyone who puzzled how to fit their game in a different setting.

Instead of using the post feature to shill my own awful game like everyone else is doing, I'd like to bring attention to some games that might be short a couple ratings to place, or that are exceptionally good in my humble opinion. Markdown was being an ass to me so none of my links are clickable. Sorry.

In no particular order:

Drilly's Journey

ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/57/drilly My personal favorite from the compo. If I'm having fun exploring something made in a weekend, I know it's the good stuff.

Fathom Pond

ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/57/fathom-pond I'm a big fan of Interactive Fiction, and this one is rather good for 48 hours. Some of you may have never played IF, this is a great starting point.

Neuronic Netronics

ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/57/neuronic-netronics Games where figuring out the game is part of the game are always a treat, and this one is a great example. Some of these puzzles are devilishly hard.

Foreman

ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/57/foreman A card game that feels like a card game yet embraces the theme. Lovely spatial puzzle.

Abyss Vaulter

ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/57/abyss-vaulter How the fuck does he do it bros?

Net. Sweeper

ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/57/net-sweeper I'm a sucker for minesweeper variants, but what elevated this for me was the presentation. The UI alone makes me smile.

Topography

ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/57/topography Short, sweet, made me very happy.

And there you go. I'm still going through the massive list of games (I barely played any jam ones) so this might not be the last post I make. Check some of these out! They deserve your love.
