I'm done!

Personally, I don't get it. I left and right click on one guy, and he says positive or negative things. After a few dozen clicks, that seems to be all there is to it...? Some of the sayings were funny, but it kinda feels like an idea that only made it half-way, without any real interaction, consequences, etc.

CAPSULE is a really weird interactive experience. While it is considered complete, it is not really much of a game, and I have no idea if anyone will like it or even get it. But, I had a heap of fun making this game, and I hope you'll enjoy it too!

Play it here (web)

Controls:

LMB - positive interaction
RMB - negative interaction

There is much more to do. Half the 'challenge' is figuring out what else there is. But, yeah, it's weird. I don't know if people will get it...but it is deeper than that.

Went back and tried again. Found a bit more (like 2 negative endings, and one positive one. The button didn't appear to do anything? >.>), and I've got to say, those were the most random endings heh.

I don't want to give anything away, so whatever you did experience was the game as it was meant to be played by you It's not a particularly fun game no matter what options you discover haha.

[thatshelby]

Finished.

Orbiter is a game.

The planet rotates, enemies spawn around it, and the buildings YOU placed are defending it.

So yeah, a tower-defense basically.

PLZ READ:

I encourage you to play through to day 10. The first 5 or so are simple. It starts to progress logically around here. I couldn't figure out how to get around it. Also: The DUM turrets are pretty powerful in large numbers. If you find you have trouble, use a lot of them, but the game's challenge is actually in using multiple unit styles.


CONTROLS:

Mouse:
Left mouse - Place unit
Right mouse - Start round, when prompted
Middle mouse - Rotate planet (note: not necessary to play game, just a neat debug thing, for the gears in the center, I left in)
Move mouse over unit - Shows information about the unit
Scroll wheel - Change selected unit

NOTE: If you don't have a middle mouse button, don't sweat it: UP and DOWN arrow keys do the same as the scroll wheel.




Thanks for playing. Good luck.

Well I never... 42 hours of work (I slept 6) and I have actually finished and submitted something!!! That was fun! So, I present to you all my first ever Ludum Dare game:

The idea is that you jump from tiny world to tiny world and collect all the stars! Simple? NO! There are monsters to avoid, planets that move (and even explode!) and you have a limited battery life for jumping (did I mention you are a robot?). The levels are procedurally generated and will get steadily tougher as you progress with more movement and enemies, as well as greater spaces between worlds!

You can play the game here : http://nocturnegames...m/GravitySucks/

You can comment on the game here : http://www.ludumdare...review&uid=4311

And finally, GOOD LUCK to everyone from the GMC who has entered the Ludum Dare competition this time around!

My game is like an RPG tower defence. Not much else...didn't get time to finish. Probably should have picked something that would have taken less time but I couldn't think of anything that interested me except for this.No sound BTW.
Probably should have worked on this than played league
Still had fun.

I saved them by fixing the teleporter by breaking the teleporter. I was benevolent, apparently. It didn't last very long..I don't really see the point of the game.

Maybe if my actions were more..I don't know..

Although, it does make me want to go back and play Sandbox of God again so thanks for that.

The game has no point, exactly But, I kind of like how each player will have quite a different experience and not necessarily see the entire game.

Thanks for playing, btw.

[Furritus]

wasnt able to finish, my game had no content whatsoever almost

[Dangerous_Dave]

I played a pile of games posted in this topic, it's been great seeing what everyone made! It's also interesting to see who the sadists are...

I wound up participating, and I really like how it turned out:
Gale Axile

Spoiler

You are left do die in a lonely galaxy.

But, there are fruits on your planet. Pluck them and plant more of them to increase the size of your planet. Reach other planets, and find trees, ore, even powerful Uranium. Use them to build tools that help you survive against hunger and cold.

Your goal is to build a spaceship. But how you reach this goal is different every time you play - because every game is set in a random galaxy.

This was quite exhausting, so I will probably pass on the next jam. And if you played my last jam game - it was horrible, especially compared to Gale Axile.

Have fun playing, everyone.

The Tiny Green World is a game based around the theme TinyWorld. In it people are wrecking the tiny world you grew up in cutting trees, drilling into the earth and building factories that belch greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere. Things have gone too far, posters alone used to help but now you must use another tool, the brainwashing ray. You must brain wash the citizens to get popularity and make them respect the environment. However the military aren't too happy at you brain washing their loyal citizens and they are out to get you! Every time you use the ray they are alerted to your presence and send a plane to sort you out! With the popularity you earn, you can buy upgrades to your brain washer, as well as buying propaganda items (fliers, blimps, billboards) until eventually everyone is environment-happy you save the world! Left click on the shop items to buy, and left click on the BrainWashingRay™ to start brainwashing citizens! The aim of the game is to get your poularity upto 150, if you have any questions or would like to send me your score please do so, my twitter is @EliteWareGames and my email is admin@eliteware.info . I hope you enjoy my game!

So many planet games in this competition. :/

C'mon, guys, a tiny world doesn't have to be a planet!

I was going with the idea that it's a planet (world), but the planet is not tiny. Instead, it's filled with small creatures called Tinies. Hence, it's the Tiny World.

But as we all know, timing is not a strong suit for me at the moment .
