This was really cool! I had a lot of fun with it!

Fav !

Cool game, and great use of screen space! Hope I can find someone to play with soon.

mincemeat 2014-12-08 04:03

There's just too much going on for my liking. It is really cool all the same...

jamesofjames 2014-12-08 04:03

Pretty cool idea, and well-executed!

Solid shooter. Felt a bit clunky to me, with the limited axis moving and shooting, but still fun. :)

The graphics are a little cluster; But I'll rate a high score for anyone managed to make a multiplayer game in 48hrs

Fun game. Controls can feel a little clunky, but the idea of fighting monsters and other players works well and I like the generated names too.

Pretty cool to do a multiplayer game for LD! Nice music. The combat was pretty simple, it would be nice if there was a way to deal damage without taking damage too.

sam101 2014-12-08 04:30

mtinkerhess -> You can shoot without being shot actually :)

Very nice game and the multiplayer fits it well. Music is bit addictive :D. Please check my game too: Presidents bodyguard simulator

Far to Loud sorry

I had no idea what was going on at any given time. Everything gets really lost in the grey of the background and tiles.

Nice job getting multiplayer in. Great retro sounds. A little chaotic but fun!

madmaw 2014-12-08 21:54

There was another player in the room, then I kicked his ass. Very enjoyable. Spot on for the theme. The controls are a little unresponsive, but that's hard to do with a networked game, let alone one written in 48 hours.

sam101 2014-12-09 04:01

shubshub -> Thanks for the feedback anyway, I'll reduce the volume of the sounds !

rabbit -> Thanks for the feedback anyway !

madmaw -> Yeah, the prediction/networking code for the lasers is kind of buggy unfortunately (it was my first take on a fast-paced multiplayer game :/)

cool game! but a little hard :) give the Fun 5 star.

kraln 2014-12-09 13:51

The collisions are a little wonky

yosh 2014-12-09 22:24

Really enjoyed this one! It got me hooked pretty fast though I'm pretty sure I died for unknown reasons!

I still made it through level 2 and killed what could have people or bots... it didn't matter as long as they would die B)

Fun!

Hi there. Like the 8-bitness. Nice sounds. Lots going on, looks good. Might be a bit easy 'cos I lasted I while and I'm really bad at these games normally :) Good job!

indigon 2014-12-11 07:45

The semi-turn-based-live mechanic is very confusing, the graphics are cool though

6downstudios 2014-12-15 05:16

Real neat and lots of fun! I would've liked another attack, maybe slightly stronger (shoots 2 or 3) but only in one direction. Music's great! Well done!

asobitech 2014-12-16 09:43

Really fun to play. Well done on getting the multiplayer working well.

zatyka 2014-12-20 05:14

I found the gameplay to be a bit too "busy", with so much stuff flying around on the screen in different directions. I'd suggest further differentiating the projectiles from the enemies.

Congrats on making a multiplayer game in 48 hours... I know that's no easy feat. Unfortunately, no one else was in the game with me when I was playing, so things got repetitive pretty fast.

Interesting game, although a bit hard :P
