The Showcase is back now that the holidays have settled down a bit. Hope everyone had a lovely weekend with family and friends! We’re back now with A Buzzy Bee, Dibs: Top Bunk, and Moon Maze.
Howdy Indies! Hope everyone is having a lovely holiday season so far, playing all those awesome games and giving ratings! Your pal Larry is back with the second Episode of the Ludum Dare 37 showcase series! Where Ive found a game concept/core mechanic that Ive never seen before.
Howdy folks! Im back with another mini let’s play review series for Ludum Dare 37! In this first installment we’ve got a bit of Tower Defense, some childhoom delight, and a Horror game that has a hidden mobile centric surprise.
Today we’re taking a trip to the stars to look at the No Man’s Sky Parody called No Mario’s Sky. Then its off to the other end of the galactic timeline to help some T-Rex Dinosaurs save earth from asteroid attacks in Dino Hipster Survival. One should hope that all this ancient technology can save us from all the space terrors.

When life refuses to give you tart fruits and instead gives you elastic arms. The only thing left to do is solve puzzles. Unless of course you found yourself lost in an endless expanse of cracks and white mist. Then you must seek the static!
Who says running a Kingdom has to be difficult? Clearly everyone just needs to hire a political advisor that tells everyone to distill their issues and questions to simple Yes or No statements. No let’s Sort the Court!
All Im saying is if you clone a murderous insect in a science lab… you prolly shouldn’t forget to give them dessert at night. They tend to get a little cranky -> [LADY BUG] by King Penguin.
Thank you so much everyone who played and commented on my game with helpful feedback!
The feedback was more or less unanimous, which made it a little easier to have a look at the flaws.
In the new build I’ve focused on making jumping easier by adding a small grace period where you’re able to jump after having walked off an edge. I’ve also made it possible to jump a little earlier before hitting the ground. You can jump higher overall as well, and the triple jump also allows you to move faster forwards than when you’re running.
More boost in the triple jump!
I made some small changes in order to address the slipperiness as well. It’s now possible to take smaller steps when starting movement from a standstill. It’s still easier to move slowly with an analog stick, but this somewhat emulates it for keyboard as well, without making the character feel to slow or unresponsive (I hope).
I’m also trying out an automatic camera solution that will slowly move to behind the character when the player is not manually rotating the camera. It won’t do this whilst the player is jumping, standing still or walking facing the camera. It’s experimental, but more akin to what is commonly seen in platformers, so tell me what you think of it!
Single jumps more useful.
I also wanted to tell you that I’ve added a Linux– and a Mac OS X build that is available for download now as well! \(o3o)/ wööö!
