Sadly, I did not have much free time this weekend to give to Ludum Dare. I decided to go for a minimalist fighting game.
The game itself is minimalist. You can move, punch and block. It counts wins, but the game never ends, since that's how fighting games are. You just keep fighting new opponents.
The development process was minimalist as well. It is a single HTML file. It was written in Notepad++ on an 8 year old laptop. It loads no graphics or libraries. It has no embedded artwork. It uses HTML, CSS and JavaScript (no canvas).
I didn't have time to test it thoroughly, but it should be playable on Chrome, Opera and IE (only tested in 8). Maybe Firefox as well. The gradients are a bit messed up in IE.
Adding new attacks to the game should be easy. There just wasn't time. It was more important to get it finished enough to submit.
