Day by Day

[gfycat data_id="ScaredFrailArmedcrab"][gfycat data_id="ZigzagWideChimneyswift"][gfycat data_id="MeaslyQuarrelsomeGalapagosmockingbird"]

A short story about a dog’s life after its owner leaves to go to war, and the deterioration of the town around it. Day by Day was made for Ludum Dare 34, so it’s a bit buggy and unpolished, but I liked the experience. It should take less than 10 minutes to complete, and might leave you thinking for a while.

“Thousands of men are enlisted to the great war. This is not a story about them, this is a story about those who are waiting for their return.”

“A mix between a platformer and a mini golf game. Help the Egz to survive by leading them through a dangerous universe. The catch ? They are only able to jump, bounce, roll… But most importantly, they’ll have to do everything to avoid breaking!”

[gfycat data_id="PhysicalPerkyDikkops"][gfycat data_id="AmusedHonestArawana"][gfycat data_id="ImmaculateAdolescentGoral"]

A pixel art adventure through the desert in order to complete a pilgrimage to Mount Distant. I’m still struggling to get halfway there. >.<

“journey into the desert,

discover its secrets,

master your technique,

complete your pilgrimage,

and try not to lose your way,

as so many others have.”

The developer also recently made REAP, which is a procedurally generated exploration game. I’ll probably do a separate post on that when I’m not so busy.

Death Trash

developed by crafting legends

[gfycat data_id="LankyDisguisedGreyhounddog"]

“A modern post-apocalyptic roleplaying game with influences of cyberpunk, science fiction, horror, the grotesque and trash-talk humor. It features a world full of dialogue and interesting characters, item crafting and realtime combat. Player freedom is emphasized and combat is not the only way to survive.”
