Oh god I need to sleep
This is an awesome game!! I love how you can take control of the characters.... I'm on the last boss fight now
hoLY SHIT THIS GAME IS A MASTAPIECE
Really liked the concept. Really original way to take control of player!
Not sure why but i found this game incredibly difficult. I purchased like 4 assault then spent the rest of my points on upgrades (Which didn't seem to do anything) and i couldn't last anymore than 8 seconds seconds. Maybe i spent the points wrong i'm not sure. But a tips screen or something similar would of been nice on the purchase upgrade screen. Other than that i love the concept and even though i kept loosing i had fun.
@eddyneave understandable. This game is somewhat RNG-heavy and I didn't balance the stats enough.
Just if anyone's curious as to what the stats do: Vitality adds 10hp per point spent, with the base hp being 200 Speed adds 0.15 speed points from a base of 2.5 (useful in early rounds) Range makes weapons attack range longer, but this stat is very underpowered. Damage wasn't even implemented hahahh
I also agree that there needed to be a tip screen. I can see how new players could get confused easily. this is what happens if you slack in the early parts of the jam hahhha, you need to make sure that your players get a proper chance to understand your mechanics.
@_str1pe Thanks for the clarification. I went with range mostly then vitality, but it always seemed like the enemy team had 5 extra players so i think i should of gone with players and speed to start of with :)

Your game is great fun and has real character. The design of the game is awesome, although it's simple it fits the game so well and I just love it. The rng element of when and where weapons dropped was annoying at times but as soon as I had gathered a large and strong enough army I found that it wasn't a problem most of the time. I would love to see an expansion of this game where you have multiple sports and each sport has levels of enemies (like what you have now). I would definetly play it.
Great Job, you get a 10/10 from me and I'm gonna put you in the "Top picks from Ludum Dare 41" part of my profile.
I've never seen any game with this level of player customization in a Game Jam (and easy to use and understand). Congrats!
Haha lots of chocolate! I feel like the AI did most of the work though (although I think that's what you had in mind), I just needed to spam the heck out of the crowd ^^' but overall it was fun to play, I got to score the ball once ;)
Amazing.
@dj-depressive @miroky @AlejandrodeCea @neverautomatic Thanks for the kind comments! It means a lot <3
bloodsport.PNG A bit tiring that you mostly have to spam on the crowd to win but game has good premise. But Good job :smile:
so. is the browser one broken? I have no "bot" to click on. just watch enemy kick the ball to the left and says defeat over and over.
@BlazeDragon you need to put points in "assualt" and "reserve", see @Dj Depressive 's comment. Otherwise you have got no fighters! Sorry if it was unclear :((
I'd appreciate it a lot if you could take a second look at my game :sweat_smile:
this is a pretty fun concept that requires some balancing and polish to bring it out of average territory. Give it some more love!
Really fun game! At first i didn't get how the weapon system worked but once i figured it out I just couln't stop having fun. Definitely I will play more of it later. Good Job
@Langotriel @NorthernHawk thanks! ^^
@str1pe hey look at that :D i didn't even see those lol. not to bad, much more fun when I set up my team lol
:o almost 20 ratings! Thanks everyone!
Edit: 20+ ratings! :smile:
All in all one of the most fun games I played in this LD! Also very funny (bottles and roses and explosions). Gameplay itself wasn't actually very demanding, just clicking on the audience like crazy. But thinking about how to balance the points spent made up for this. I never had to tell a bot to pick up a weapon or to go to the ball, and when I tried it it didn't work as intended.
