You Better hurry with the pc controls, no one will play it with out that support
Can't play it because no gamepads. Upvoted theme and graphics because I think it deserves it! Well done.
Can't play because it requires two players. =(
But the graphics look really good and I like the audio.
Great One!
Graphics reminds me Hyper Light Drifter :B
Great game, I loved the graphics and the sounds. Also, every little part of the game has its own details. A great entry for sure!
This is truly awesome. I do feel bad for that little guy that we hit all of the time. The skulls are super cool.
nice multiplayergame
The graphics and attention to detail is really nice. I find the game incredibly hard though, that little guy is too evasive for my liking and is frustrating me. I was playing with an Xbox controller.
Hot damn this is good.
Best entry i have played so far. Perfect fit for the theme, really using the whole screen, wonderful smooth and responsive controls and visual feedback, fantastic art.
Great fun.
Thanks for all the graphics and audio praising! The music and art people can't wipe the grins off their faces :).
@TriSquare Thanks for the advice! Crunched a few hours afterwards to get the PC controls working, and it seems to be better for people :).
@bitserum Yeah the difficulty is a tough one - when you play with two players it's a little easier, I think :).
@Lars Faust Thanks for the wonderful comment :). Coming from you and the gorgeous looking, "S", that's a big compliment! :)
Yep, the controls are a bit of a problem to get people playing, but hey it looks stunning and the mechanics seem sound!
Speaking of mechanics, why can't you move forward with the ball? (I know why mechanically but it just doesn't make sense in the theme) And is the only way to get a ball flying by mouthing it first? Couldn't you ever hit it with the axe without biting first? (seems so)
I think you could increase the interactivity by letting more things happen more of the time instead of it being a strict sequence of bite > hit. I do see you can hit them backwards though :) Fun :)
Rad work guys :)
So cool! Would love to try this out 2v2! :D
Love it. Intense
Nice idea ! Keep up the good work ! :)
Played it with the keyboard, and it was a little awkward. The timing for attacks seems a little weird. I love the art and the colors and the idea though! A little more time, and this would be completely awesome!
Controls are a bit tough on keyboard, bet it's a lot better on a controller!
Played this with my gf it's really fun! Amazing artwork! Nice entry!
@Tuism thanks for the rad and comprehensive feedback! The controls are definitely something we want to revamp a little bit: make them a lot simpler :).
You can hit the ball while its on the ground, but only when it's lower than your raptor. Currently it's a bit awkward, so we want to make it easier to hit it on the ground.
Agreed about the strict sequence, we want it to flow a lot more freely :).
@ben_pxlplz Thanks for the art praise! We're totally keen to work on it it a bit more and iron out that control weirdness.
@Murchurl So glad you were able to play it two player! :D
That was really cool! Fast paced, and lots of detail. Scoring points felt so satisfying. Great work!
Very impressive art! Animations fit well with the art too.
Controls are a bit clunky, it isn't als fluid as I would like.
Very good job!
Nice and intense gameplay. The graphics are cool also.
The art and sound are absolutely fantastic, super polished and professional looking. It all goes together to make a cohesive package.
The only issue I have are with the controls and gameplay. The "ball" moves around way to fast and the controls are as smooth as they need to be. But those are minor things that can easily be fixed.
Well done!
I like how this game fit's the theme, also the graphics are really nice :)! Congratulation on making this game ^^
YYEEEAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!
One of the more funnny game in LD31 Nice job :)
This is really impressive work. Fantastic art, with a color palette that really stands out, and great music as well.
It seems really difficult to actually catch up with the ball. I think its agility could be toned down a bit.
Really cool! The gameplay catch/hit work really good. I love the art too. Congrats!
Cool game, funny stuff guys! Controls say C for player 1 axe swing but its actually V...might want to change that :D
i love the logo and the colour palette!
Hyperlight Drifter, Titan Souls, Nuclear Throne, Raptor Polo. BOOM.
Seriously, I think your team has absorbed the Vlambeer game feel lessons, and the Fez/SB:S&S EP pixel art styles... so good, so right.
Once I figured out how to catch the human, this game is hella fun!
FUNNY !
I had fun playing with my dad. It was hard to understand how to win but once we got it, it was easy.
Amazing work! Really fun game, great audio, and truly excellent pixelart! On of my fave 5 so far!
Look nice, I try the mechanism alone and I keep it on my harddrive to play this with some friends.
Good work.
Very cool game, just played it with someone else. Graphics and audio are phenomenal, and the whole game is hilarious. Nice work!
Inventive and funny multiplayer game, I loved the presentation! It was a little too easy to catch an opponent's thrown ball by holding the grab button though, which led to huge stalemates. Art was wonderful, music fit the style and the gameplay was beautiful.
Still, it's everything I dreamed of and more. Now I want REAL RAPTORS for REAL RAPTOR POLO.
Psssst - You are featured in today's Ludum Dare to Believe! Check it out - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdf4FdafRVw
We plugged in two controllers, and it worked just fine the first time around. When we booted the game again it didn't.
Anyway, the game's graphics and gameplay was actually really cool; The music, however, was most bogus.
Good game!
Love the graphics and concept. I Included it in part 14 of my Ludum Dare 31 compilation video series, if you would like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/3dnkCRJktbw
I actually found someone to play this with and it was pretty fun. That poor little "ball" takes a lot of punishment.
Sometimes the ball goes slowly downwards and then dissappears sometimes forever, if you've let it go high and not touched it on it's way down.
Also, if you grab the ball and someone right in front of you is pressing the left trigger he'd get the ball before you can hit it.
We've discovered those things after playing for a while, so the game is good enough that it kept us playing quite a while.
Sound and graphics are quite good, blood is oddly pretty.
good job!
