A 2-player battle with mines, where each player can throw any number of dummy mines and only one real one. However, one player's 'real' mine is a dud, and neither player knows which. I'm not sure how well this works...
A player can detonate all of his mines at any time, and can use lasers 3 times to destroy (without detonating) every placed mine.
The game ends once the real mine has been detonated or destroyed, and the winner is the player left alive, if any. If both players are alive, the player who had the real mine loses.
You probably want to use a controller for this.
Known bugs: - mines don't orient themselves immediately when landing on the ground - players can jump in the air after walking off a platform - after falling off the bottom of a wall, players continue to fall slowly, and can wall jump, until they move away from the wall - there seems to be a fairly bad memory leak
This is really hard for people to rate due to the multiplayer nature of the game. However, I played vs myself using keyboard and a controller. I really liked the concept. It'd be pretty cool on a console with couch multiplayer or network multiplayer on computer. You should add more and polish it up!
Oh, wait, never mind - the actual archive is broken? I was thinking extraction of things in the exe. Seems I accidentally used LZMA, which some ZIP decompressors don't support. I'll try to get that fixed.
@hnjslater: since you're trying to install dependencies, I'm assuming you're not on Windows, so details would still be nice. Thanks.
Quite original and one of the best interpretations of the theme I've seen so far. The only thing I'm not too happy about are the controls (keyboard controls at least) and that there's only that one (even asymmetrical! :O) map. Other than that - very well done!
Nice take on the theme, pretty hilarious to play with a friend, would like to see a bigger map to play around on, and maybe coloured mines? Good job anyway!
It was an interesting concept, but the gameplay could use some polish though as others have mentioned :P. The keyboard layout took some getting used to, but it worked pretty well in the end.

The map was the last thing I did - I would've like to have included more.
The movement is a bit imprecise :&
