Congratulations, everyone! Thank you to the Ludum Dare team!
Looking forward to doing it again!
Ludum Dare resulted in some great games again. It’s been a fun ride, hope to see you guys next time!
Always glad to see people appreciated the effort I put into my game, especially audio and innovation. Except the world was not yet ready for the fun it had to offer…
Great effort everyone this Ludum Dare was awesome!
When April comes around, I’ll be ready to pounce.
LOVE LOVE LOVE

I love you Ludum Dare!
#1 mood! Wow… Congrats all, there are so many awesome little games here, once again.
Lets get the timer started for the next one!
Does the weekend of the 20-21st April sound good?
It doesn’t clash with any major sporting events, game/movie releases, or national celebrations?
.. if it does, we’ll move ‘em!
Congrats all!
Yaaay, I’m in the 1st thousand in every category
Congratulations to winners.
Can’t believe I got top 10 Innovation :O Can’t wait to have another go next time!
I got 9th place in the Jam for humour!
Thanks so much! This was my first entry and that made me so happy.
I really can’t believe how welcoming a community this is. I’m definitely going to enter again in future, after everyone was so nice.
Thanks Ludum Dare!
I got 27th in audio. Wow, I cannot stress how much of a surprise that was. Thanks for the votes guys and congratulations to the top contestants.
scored N/A in every single category, with every single comment on my game being “Sorry, no linux, can’t run” (and one guy who didn’t have opengl support)….can we maybe not count N/A across the board votes to the default score or coolness so that people don’t just rate games they can’t even run and get them off the lists, i mean, if you’re on windows why are you browsing to and rating linux only games???
Thanks a LOT for all the kind comments
I’m sooo glad people liked my entry!
Wish the best to all of you for the upcoming year! Join in on #OneGameAMonth on Twitter! And of course, I’m desperately waiting for the next LD…
