LOCAL MULTIPLAYER.
Ruled beneath a tyrant (literally), you must fight to the death, for the amusement of your ruler. So, grab a comrade and fight. FOR GLORY
WILL YOU COME OUT ALIVE?

Or will you be shattered?

seriously i don't think you know what you're getting into by playing this game

To best serve your leader, you must know the controls.
Player 1 movement is WASD. Jump is the spacebar. Player 1 shooting is done with 'c'. Or is it 'v'? I forgot but it's most likely 'c'.
Oh, and spin is LEFT SHIFT. SPINNING IS VERY IMPORTANT, DON'T FORGET IT. YOUR USE OF THE SPIN ABILITY IS THE DETERMINING FACTOR BETWEEN LIFE AND DEATH. like it's actually important

Oh and Player 2 movement is P,L,;, and ' . yes, I know those are the weirdest buttons I could've used, but hey, keyboards are small and not build for two people. That's why I'm adding controller support.
Player 2 shoots with the comma button, jumps with LEFT ALT, and spins with LEFT SHIFT. dont forget that player 2. >:|

TL;DR this is a 2 player game and spinning is very important.
To change the controls, go to the input tab on the splash screen! or plug in a controller (i think controllers work)

Well, that was quite a revolution. And the character selection was a surprising twist. I was practically rolling on the floor in laughter. Must admit, though, at times it felt like the fight was spiralling out of control.

Okay, I think I've worn out the puns about spinning.

In all seriousness, I had a whirl of a time.

Yo, Teejay! Cool to see another game of yours, I missed you in the LD 28! And yeah, graphics and humor up to the usual level! The gameplay was a bit hard to control this time though - even playing alone against an unmoving enemy, it took me forever to kill it...

PS: Please, beat box sound effects oder music in the next entry, haha. I like that opening!

The Ipaddysters send their regards.

Wacky fighting mechanics, but the characters and "plot twist" right at the start made this one of my favorite games so far. And i've played -a lot- of'em.

Wow, what a strange game, yet endearing.

Haha, I'm glad to see someone else who tried to bring the Surface into their game somehow. I had to play this one player, but it was still pretty funny. Nice work.

Well, that was a thing. What a great intro song...
