Hey !

miniature.png
Here is my submission for #LD40 (the fifth Ludum Dare I participate for !) ! That is a simple roguelike where you search for money. You see some coins on the ground, but when you pick them, some people began attacking you. You run and fall in front of a mysterious door. What could be behind it ?

Hope you will enjoy the game and thanks for playing !

Do not forget to share, follow and like the game, I may continue developping the game ; )

(I just do an update when I realised I forgot binding a key to purchase an upgrade, so that's why you download the version 1.0.1)

See ya !

Great art style! I really liked the sound as well. It was difficult to play with a keyboard/mouse, but I know it was meant for a controller. Well done.

Neat entry, can't feel the effect of the increasing difficulty too much, but a nice entry nonetheless! Love the little intro animation!

Ahh! I killed the capitalism boss when the defeat fade out was going rip, Marx would be proud though :^). My first idea for this theme was with money too, but couldn't get any interesting gameplay, I'm glad you found the way! Good job!

I think the Music was a bit loud, there were some typos (no criticism here) but overall a pretty pleasant experience

I liked the doodle art style. Also it became quite challenging after few runs. Wish there were more to the rooms. The sounds are cute. Liked the intro animation.

Good job ! :)

Pretty fun, the bassline is a little painful though.

I can't get it to work? When I try run.exe, I get an error: "Java Virtual Machine Launcher: Could not find the main class: me.mathiouza.ld40.Main. Program will exit."

Nice work. I couldn't really feel the theme coming through but it's still a solid game that I enjoyed (Nice troll on the quit button!).

The intro is pretty funny and the messages are too. The mechanic is simple and works. Despite me playing for a while music never became repetitive. COngrats!

I like the intro and the music/sfx. Good humor, especially liked the quit button!.

@randomnine Hum ... that is weird this kind of messages ... Moreover that is difficult to help you because I do not create a real error system ... Try redownloading it ? Maybe it is your java version ? Or maybe you do not extract the files and folders from the zip file ?

I take this moment for thanks you all who commented the game ! Hope you had a great time playing my game :) @professor @arcadia @strelly @gamesplusjames @officialahusa @360 @jeysym @soyrandom @flankstaek @gwolf86 @gris @spaceturtle

Loving the game and the music. I think I'll go back and play a bit more... :-) Great work!

I think that this is the best LD40 game that i was playing. Well done!

Something about the game really got me into it. Took me a lot of tries but I managed to beat it! I find the game very cute and the bosses were a nice touch.

I found a bug where a dollar sign enemy would randomly fly past the screen during some transitions into the next room in level 2.

@sungk Thank you for the feedback ! I know this bug, but that is just a graphical bug and I had no more time when I saw it ^^' I will try fixing it for a further version :)

Thank you @cogcomp and @korpokrowa by the way :)

Cute game, fun music and solid gameplay!

I really liked the audo, really impressive compo entry. I did think that the theme was lacking a bit in the game, other then that, nice entry.

Its a fun little game but it is not that innovative. I think some more mechanics would make it better!
Kashif7 Dec 2017, 11:04
I liked the intro. And the tutorials

The sound effect when picking up money was very satisfying! Really simple and easy to learn. I did get a lot of similar rooms in the first level (line of target below three turrets), and the first level felt a bit too long. Great game overall though! The intro was really good

C'est très mignon jeu! Je seulement voudrais que l'argent ressemblé plus à ... argent hahaha

Bon travail! Je suis désolé s'il y a une erreur dans ma grammaire, je le pratique toujours :P

Cool game ! I'd love the graphics, and the mechanics are good. And damn... WE CAN PLAY WITH A CONTROLLER !!! Thank you ! :)

My playthrough:


Hmm.. a hit point bar would be great. I was at lost at how many times I can be hit that before I go down.

Audio was great and the art style actually fits the game well. Control was tight, which is good!

I think this game is kinda boring and uninteresting. Music also repetitive.

Ok, so I just dropped it when I got to the damn plants, and I don't even feel guilty - they are way too over-powered. Enjoyed the first two levels though.
