Added Post Compo Version for the sake of it. More brawl, bottles and rubber ducks!
Keyboard for input, Beware of CAPSLOCK! Hope you are fast in typing. Pretty hard in the beginning, but eventually rewarding.
Some stuff missing, still buggy and whatnot. Play it, hate it, rate it. Hopefully it made you smile at least once ;)
Yeah right the theme/story:
The most awesome band is in town, however there is this guy who starts a fight, and the only magical power you get from drinking too much is a bottle-ish "HADOKEN!" At least this is what you remember of the night the next morning. Eventually it could be as simple as "I drank to much and wasnt able to punch this guy, so instead i threw bottles" .
Use your only ability wisely (i.e: Type as fast as you can the words which appear in the lower left corner to defend yourself)
Inspired by the old SFII fireball battles i had with friends back then.
Have fun, and may the typing speed be with you. You'll need it.
Hi guys, thanks for playing and dropping the comments! Yeah, game is pretty hectic, haven't had the time for tuning or adding another character. Spend a full night on painting the sprite sheets. Never done that before, and lost too much time. Wish it was longer with some challenges though.
Theme is about "getting only one attack" for fighting... Thought it would be more recognizable. If it isn't, sorry for that. After a while being so close to a thing it's hard to judge if people get something you held for obvious all the time. Could be the lack of sleep o_O
It was well executed but I wish there was more content, I kept winning at ~6sec. Typing challenges should be harder when you expect coders to play it :P.
@Nelien: Hah, ~6 seconds is pretty good. Other people say the opposite. You should have seen the first version. Broke the letter "D" on my keyboard. No shit :D As I mentioned in the comments before, the deadline was forcing me to cut the stuff i wanted to implement in the first place. Wanted to polish this one a bit more. My roommate suggested network play, lets see if i get this stuff done as well. Ok playing more games now... Next up: yours :)
Really enjoyed this! Slick product, really superb graphically and the sounds was fantastic - perfect bar room brawl music and it really had atmosphere. I wish I could have enjoyed the sprites a bit more - i was too busy looking at the target text to really take them in. Perhaps some kind of "action slo mo replay" of your final bottle to the chops would have clinched the deal?
Oh man do I suck at typing! Love the graphics. Could not get anywhere in the game though, not sure if it is too hard or I am really bad at typing. My typing martial arts style is hunt and peck. Enjoy the concept nonetheless!
The graphics were super cool, loved the overall style here! Winning wasn't very clear though, played the game a bunch of times before I noticed the text saying I'd hit the guy with a bottle. Thought I was losing!
As someone who enjoys playing fighting games a lot, I found this extremely hilarious. The game was ridiculously addictive too (although the audio quality could be better).
Hey guys, thanks for the criticism. For the most part I'm aware of what should be improved, but, you know, time constraints, 48h, etc ;)
@ Joror : yep totally right. All this should have been there. That was before I realized I had only 1h left to submit my game and there wasn't any sound at all in it... DOH!
@ jimmypaulin : Gotcha! Nice idea there! Will put some more work in this
Sorry for the typing speed. It should have some difficult level. For people that cant type a bit faster it is probably impossible to play :(
love a good typing game. i liked the fight poster description, really set the theme. wish there was more going on, but this is a jam game! might try the post-compo version after judging.

I don't see what this has to do with the theme. It's neat, but quite short.
Don't know how it relates to the theme
Very short, wish there where more opponents!

My best time is 8.3 seconds
