In Berserker you're a mighty barbarian suffering from anger management issues. Your inner rage boils away just beneath the surface, and can be unleashed at any moment!
Controls: - WSAD/Arrow keys to move - Move Mouse to swing your swords - Left mouse button to use a potion and GO BERSERK!
Utterly ridiculous. Huge fun. The controls could be tighter, and the volume is a little out of control when the player dies...But otherwise, I'm impressed at the amount of art you got done and the hilarity of the physics.
great all around; save points could have made this game less tedious because it was so easy to die. The movement was hilarious. His face reminded me of a titan from Attack of the Titans. Great mood overall, and really fun!
Very nice! Interesting way of approaching the theme, and it was fitting that using the potions didn't always mean you survived longer, but only decreased your control of the player.
Haha copain, that's awesome! I would never have thought to play the game in co-op mode.
I didn't make the player invincible, because to me berserking is all about reckless disregard for personal safety. Perhaps invincibility would be better from a gameplay point of view though - I dunno. Thanks for the feedback!
Well aren't you one goddamn talented fellow! :D Really great package! The controls added a lot to the humor, artwork was really beautiful, audio was top notch, an all around great entry! :)
This game is sooo fun!!! Really great art and I love how you can keep on without any legs left :) Reminds of that famous Holy grail scene with the black knight!
That was ridiculously fun. I discovered that using the swords as divining rods of death worked better than swinging them, but that was equally fun, especially when going backwards.
This is one of the most insane games I've ever played. The graphics are really good but the fact that you can loose body parts and still go (while listening to a music piece that made me really nervous), makes this a really unique and overall absolutely great Ludum Dare entry! The mood is just beyond words. Keep it up!
Awesome entry. Probably my favorite so far. Great art, great mechanics, great music (love the track). My only wish would be for checkpoints (still trying to finish it). Absolutely great effort.
That was so metal I can't even hold my laughter. For some reason my berserker get's stuck any time I click the mouse button. Even though "running" without legs and just one arm killing things really made my day.
Wow... I played it thinking it was a jam game, but I just saw that it's a compo one... Nicely done! Lot's of cool point for being able to rip each limb of enemies. XD
But controls felt clunky. Movement was floaty and the swords didn't move exactly like I wanted too... Although I was able to hit what I wanted.

Still, it's really fun! =D
