Really fun game play. I can't wait to show this to more people!

Looks good, bro! Congrats on getting this out there.

Great concept! If you do develop it further I'd definitely play it. It reminds me of Broforce and could also do with some destructable terrain like Towerfall. Good job

I had the chance to play this during development with four players, and it is fantastically fun. A lot of good decisions at a molecular level and a fluid sense of movement make this an instant party favorite. Get some AI in that thing and go pro!

Cool concept!

Wow, pretty neat ! Too bad I didn't come across the game yesterday when the rest of the team where here :)
What I would suggest if you want to develop the game further : maybe being able to let the weapons loading more than one slots, allowing players to fire 2 or 3 times in a row when fully loaded => if well balanced, it might bring a little bit of strategy (I'm thinking about Shootmania). As the game seems to require lots of accuracy to dodge all the shots, aybe tightening controls a little bit more would help to express players skills. Of course adding a mode selections, number of participants, etc. The usual stuff in those kind of game. Anyway very impressive entry. I'm gonna keep it installed and wait for friends to play with :)

Was not a fan of having to install the game. A stand alone executable or equivalent would be better (This is simply for ludum dare convenience and partly personal preference). As for the gameplay and graphics good job. Definitely a solid entry!

Looks good, but the theme is "Entire game on one screen".

syawqy 2014-12-10 15:36

can't you just upload the exe file without the installer?

brittbrady 2014-12-10 17:45

@syawqy
yeah, turd here you go. Would you like a Pepsi? It was originally a single run time but that causes problems for some peoples virus scans. Love you cutie!

@DavidLv It is on one screen ;). After staying up all night Friday night making 3d art for a game. My programmers video card broke and he was out for the comp. So at about 10 AM with no sleep yet I decided to just make a local multi-player game. Sure it wasn't the most innovative Idea for the theme but I wanted to make a game and try my hand at programming stuff myself. Instead of spending 4 days on graphics I spent an hour on them and focused on something fun to play with my friends.

Don't have anyone to play with right now, but saved the exe for later. The graphics are very well done, the controls are responsive, the jetpack is fun and the gun feels nice :D A nice little deathmatch shooter :D

Damn, looks cool, I'd like to rate it and gamepad happens!
Got 2 gamepads, none of them are recognized by the game. Description of the game has nothing about what should I try to emulate even if I want to try it THAT hard.

Can't even try if it works as I wasn't able to find a single button to shoot on the keyboard.

Sooo, I guess I'll skip this one. I didn't want to, but I have no choice. Is that so hard to have a keyboard controlled player on a PC game?

brittbrady 2014-12-10 21:08

Keyboards suck. Should support xbox 360 and Playstation3 I have no Idea about other gamepads.
I simply don't want the game played with a keyboard sorry cutie.

I really like the ricochet mechanic. I'm really excited to play this with more people.

conflei 2014-12-12 23:09

Esta excelente, muy divertido y buenisimo para jugar con alguien mas, muy fluido!.

thopis 2014-12-15 14:59

Very cool game and controls are just great!I'll play it with friends :)

shivur 2014-12-17 06:08

Good little game.

freaknarf 2014-12-21 11:21

Niiiiiiice ! Pixel art is really good, gameplay seems fun, it'll be good to push this project ! Sadly i'm alone :) maybe add something to choose between 1-4 players ? I didn't hear music also :/ GREAT !!

Awesome, but really need AI for lonely players like me
