Ludum Dare 33: More games to check out - [INDIEGAMING]

Judging for Ludum Dare 33 (theme: You are the Monster) is still going on. Here's a second batch of games I recommend. If you missed the first, you can find it here.

A Bad Wolf King is Hard to Feed
Windows, Mac, Linux, Web (Unity) | 72-hour Compo | by Christer Kaitila, Amos Wenger, and Sir Carma

These folks didn't like the theme that won, so they used the second place theme, A World in the Skies. What came out is a neat prototype for a 3D platformer that they plan to expand on and release as a full game later.

Fear me!
Windows, Web (Unity) | 72-hour Jam | by Nikola Vlahovic

This isn't exactly a platformer, but puzzle platformer or action puzzler are the closest genres that fit this game. In it, you're a ghost who must avoid light but scare all the children (who will run to turn on lights) to get out of the level.

Hero Mate
Windows, Mac, Web (Unity) | 72-hour Compo | by Gao Ming

This is my favorite take on the theme so far. You are all the monsters in a level in a platformer and must move and jump in ways that will get the hero to the end of the level. It's ever so slightly reminiscent of Lemmings.

I Hunger
Web (Twine) | 48-hour Compo | by David Yates

Here we have a Twine game that is very well written, but not just about telling a story. The player's choices have indirect but lasting effects on a civilization.

Impassioned Fowl
Web (Non-Unity), Windows, Mac | 48-hour Compo | by Jim Bruges

This game is pretty simple. You're a goose flying in a flock. Of the three thoughts you could focus on at any given time, choose the non-aggressive one. Although simple, it's well done and really funny.

Out West
Web (Twine) | 48-hour Compo | by 4AM Creations

This is a short text adventure with pixel art to garnish it, set in the wild west. It didn't turn out at all like what I expected.

A Shadow In The Night
Windows, Mac | 72-hour Compo | by Triple Vision Games

This is a platformer with a non-standard movement scheme. Click and hold with the mouse to power up and choose a trajectory for a jump, then let the vampire fly. Clicking and holding in midair allows you to float. Get to all the humans in the level without running out of blood or getting staked to win.

The Stowaway
Web (Unity) | 42-hour Compo | by Dirigo Games

This FPP stealth game isn't particularly innovative, but it's really well done, especially for being made in 48 hours. The graphics are also really neat.

Three Bags Full
Web (Unity) | 72-hour Jam | by Empty Throne Team

This one is fantastic, especially since it's their first Ludum Dare entry. The art, sound, and gameplay all mesh together perfectly to create what is possibly the creepiest Ludum Dare game I've seen.

The Troll's Toll
Windows, Mac, Linux, Web (Unity) | 72-hour Jam | by Baykush Games

This is an excellent, short RPG with great narration and storytelling. The narration is voiced well and written in prose, and the storytelling overall is incorporated into the combat system. This is not one to miss and although I still have yet more games to play, this might end up being my favorite game of all of them.
