YCSOOMWSWMF is a game about one dimensional, sumo wrestlers who, due to the linear nature of their reality, must push past each other in order to reach their aspirations. They take no pride in this senseless violence, but their warrior spirit compels them to push onwards, trampling over the dreams of others in the name of blind ambition.

The goal of the game is to push the other player backwards, off screen.

Each player can move left or right and push or grab the other player. Pushes have a long reach and knock the other player back, whereas grabs allow you to move the other player freely and stop them from pushing you until you or them break out by pressing the grab button. When a player is being grabbed by another player, their mawashi (belt) turns yellow.

2 players! What?! Love the game, can get a bit crazy. A distinct lack of instructions but it didn't take long to figure out. Very true to the theme and a pretty original idea.

Love the idea! Nice and simple :)
I was a bit hard to figure out what key I'm supposed to press to start the game because the font didn't make it clear.

Great take on the theme, One of the most minimalistic games I've ever played. And it actually is a game still! WOuld have been cool to have 1 player, but on the other hand since it was just me here, I never lost!
