Beneath the surface ... everyone has a secret. And for some reason they hide them in briefcases and put those behind locked doors. Steal them!
"Doors & Secrets" is a game for two players(no singleplayer mode) where they fight each other to get a briefcase which contains valuable secrets.
-You can get rid of your enemy for a few seconds if you stomp on him.
-There are some doors blocking your way, you'll need a key to open them, get it before the other player does!
CONTROLS:
Player 1: Arrow keys.
Player 2: WASD
Misc: "P" pauses the game and "O" toggles fullscreen.
I realized that most people would play the game alone but I decided to make it anyway. I can't enjoy these games whenever I want but when I have a friend to play with I'm glad these kind of games exist.
-CHROME USERS MIGHT NOT HEAR THE MUSIC, IT WORKS PERFECTLY ONF FIREFOX-
You know, it's a pretty good competitive game, even if it requires some platformer experience. I played with my sister, and she found it way too challenging to the point where I sauntered in and took the brief case calmly. maybe it's the old problem with collision boxes, they aren't that clearly defined. I don't know.
Anyway, aside from that, there's really nothing I can fault the game on, for what it is, it is very good indeed.
Nice to see another two player local game. I enjoyed the camera size change based on the player positions, and the art style was both really good and enjoyable. Very nice!
I had to play it alone, so I can't talk about the multiplayer experience, but still, it's pretty good, and the music is very catchy, it gives the game a "run run run!" feel.

nice game. I love characters. But it's more a run than a battle (generally, the faster win)... maybe an handicap (speed...) for the one who has the suitcase will be good?
@copain I included that kind of handicap but I didn't like it in the end. It's one of those things that I wish I could have tested before submitting, but, as said before, I didn't have people to test this kind of stuff during the last hours.
Didn't have anybody to play with, but I appreciate that you can complete the goal while playing alone. Everything is very well executed, and the music is fantastic!
Had to play both players myself but did like the graphic style and concept. Word of warning though, I played the web player version and it crashed out on me before it got to the end of the level.
Music is good, controls are tight, it's fast-paced and fun. Dynamic camera might be just a bit too volatile; when there's a lot of movement, it can get a bit sickening (in the litteral sense of "making people ill", not the figurative "disgusting".)
@LemmingSurvivor: Yeah, I agree with you about the camera. If I made a post-jam version I'd spend a lot of time trying to get a better camera system. It's not bad but it needs to be tweaked and adjusted for specific situations.
Really nice graphics, as well as a really well done game! I included it in part 4 of my Ludum Dare compilation video series, if you'd like to take a look :) http://youtu.be/as-BlCZWXm0
I always appreciate two players games, it's especially impressive during LD when limited audience could be able to play and rate your game. I felt obliged to find a buddy and play it (especially since my own game also supports 2 players mode along with 1 player mode) and we had lots of fun! Great work!
Anyway, aside from that, there's really nothing I can fault the game on, for what it is, it is very good indeed.
