Phatstronaughts

Coolness★★★★★★★★★★10%
Have you ever wished you could be a seriously phat dude in space? If so Phatstronaughts is the game for you. With countless hours of scrambling for scrap included! But wait there's more! Play Phatstronaughts with your friends across the internet for added salvaging pleasure!

Aside from adhering to the theme, my only goal was to make something multiplayer. It's not exactly what I had planned on, but it was my first network multiplayer game.

Controls
Move - WADS

Goal
Pick up as much space junk as possible in 10 seconds!

Didn't work well for me in Firefox (couldn't see the player sprite, animation was slow/jerky), but it's a cool concept, kudos on trying something as ambitious as a multiplayer game!

Ah, yeah... My apologies bud. I was only testing chrome as I wrote it. Thanks for trying it though!

Not working on Mac with Chrome 29.0.1547.57, keeps saying "not ready" after my name in the lobby.

Well who doesnt want to be PHAT. I liked the idea of this game and found the graphics pretty cool!! I featured it in my video compilation of Ludum Dare 27 games, if you would like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/J-5j5_FYNQI

The unfortunate "waiting for players" curse of multiplayer LD games. I'll come back again and see if I can try this.

Wow! Thanks alot everyone! Also, I just fixed a few bugs.

* FireFox users should now see their player :)
* Player name is more easily clickable in the lobby (for readying up)
