"Duck Down" is a game where two baby ducks are fighting it out using the unconventional weapon of the skin of their own species. Yes, it's a duck on duck pillow fight.
Features: - The name is a pun - 2 player couch brawler ( two players on the same keyboard or one on controller and one on keyboard. ) - feather particles.
Things I wish I had gotten to but didn't have time for but might do later: - Bot AI - Better camera to zoom out on player 2 - Game states title and end - Crouch and low attack
Controls ( can be remapped in Input.ini):
Player 1: Move - AD Jump - W Block - S Attack - Space
Player 2: Move - Arrow Left/Right Jump - Arrow Up Block - Arrow Down Attack - Enter
Gamepad: Move - DPad Left/Right Jump - DPad Up Block - DPad Down Attack - A Button
I also tend to replace my cushion with bombs. Very cute game- I had trouble finding a partner but it the graphics and music were nice. Gameplay is basic, perhaps make the pillows have a durability or be throwable. Also, the ducks could have a mechanic that makes the game interesting, such as flying or quacking.
Cool concept. I don't like sharing a keyboard. I think you should patch in gamepads! It's pretty easy with Unreal, just look for auto-possess when you've got your pawn placed in the world. You can use that to just assign 0 and 1, and then add the gamepad inputs to the project settings.
@Dejvo... It's pretty common to come up with the same ideas given a certain theme as a coincidence, I've seen like at least 3 other pillow fight games. TBH the heart of my idea started as humans fighting with their own intestines and just kind of evolved from there, and I thought it'd be funnier to have a "cute" twist on it. But yeah, I agree my take on the theme ended up not being that unique among 2500+ people working around a similar concept.
