I’ve played and rated 100 Ludum Dare entries so far, and along the way I’ve found a fair few games that are really a lot of fun which I’d like to share with you all. What follows, in no particular order, are my favourite games from Ludum Dare #23<\/p>\n

————————————————————————————————————————————<\/p>\n

Tiny Wizard<\/strong> – kebabskal<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Actually, this one probably is my favourite. I love the bite-sized levels, slow difficulty increase, and of course the general gameplay. It’s really very satisfying to simply shoot and move around, and beating each level feels great!<\/p>\n

Dude, where’s my planet – Zamando<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Beautiful to look at, though challenging.<\/p>\n

Celia – Finn Stokes<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Stunning graphics, a cool core mechanic and a lot of fun.<\/p>\n

Inside My Radio – TurboDindon<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A unique and innovative take on music games. It’s good to see a music game in Ludum Dare. Extremely well polished.<\/p>\n

Prince of Leaves – evilseanbot<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A feel good game. Cute graphics and an original bespoked music track which make you want to play all the way through to the end.<\/p>\n

Corebound – Ryusui<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Challenging at times, but very rewarding. Unique gameplay mechanic which is sort of an automatic twist on VVVVVV’s gravity system, allowing circular orbiting movements.<\/p>\n

Lililput – Incredible Ape<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Amazing pixel art and educational fun! Learn to type like a pro while destroying aliens!<\/p>\n

Astro Break – hulahulahest<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

One of the most compelling games in the competition. Powerups and new weapons can keep you blowing up rocks all day!<\/p>\n

Little City – dustmyte<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Hilarious game with entertaining dialogue. Nice black and white visuals as well.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Microscopia – azurenimbus<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The premise is simple: Navigate to the center of the screen. The real question is, where are you? Very innovative.<\/p>\n

And, I may as well shamelessly plug my own game too!<\/p>\n

ANT SURF HERO: THE SURFENING – Jigxor (Me!)<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
