"Short circuits" is a multiplayer battle arena shooter. You are a robot among seven other. Each one of you will die in 10 seconds, but each robot carry a battery that the other can steal.
Then, you'll have to fight to stay alive :) ! Dont with Garry Williams & Tahir Vico (DoX)
You can play with your keyboard+mouse or with 4 xbox controllers. 1-4 players.
FOR PEOPLE WONDERING ABOUT CONTROLS : It's ZQSD because we have azerty keyboard :( Switch it to azerty keyboard if you wanna play easiliy ! Or use xbox controller
I like the sound and the visuals, but I couldn't really play it because I never figured out the controls. Got S for down and Z for up or something like that - which was very confusing.
How am I supposed to shoot? (I'm using an Xbox controller) Also, is this normal that I just won by being killed several times in a row, without being able to collect a single battery? It seems I earned 10 seconds each time I died O.o
I finally found the shoot key ! (It's RB) Here's my comment after playing the game. Beautiful visuals and great music, good idea. Some things prevented me from fully enjoying the game though: - the controls, even with a controller: I would rather have the character aim in the direction he is moving, and I'd prefer an other shoot key. - the enemies respawning super fast and in the same spawn point (maybe other enemies actually) - dying at the moment I finally found where I just spawned (need some visual notification here, easily noticeable from the entire screen)
Other than that, it's a very nice concept, and very close to be a fully enjoyable game imo!

To Niavlys, Thanks you for your comments, i'm happy than you like my visuals ^^. Sorry for the problems... it's only because we didn't have the time to do everything :/ , for exemple, i created the animations (teleportations) for know where we will respawn, but no time for put it in the game. (sorry for my english)
