In the middle of the desert, two combatants face each other with guns at their sides, strafing around each other in a heated battle!
Strafe Showdown is submitted under the Two-Button Controls theme. You only have two buttons: jump and shoot! With four playable characters, you can play with a friend or on your own against a computer opponent.
It's much more fun to duel your friends though!
Check the character select in both modes for controls, and check the Help menu for further information!
Fun little game, but can be hard to look at with all the spinning, haha. When both players jump and shot do they hit each other? I couldn't tell. More player feedback is prob needed.
I liked how you implemented the two-button theme. I liked trying all of the different characters. I played with myself on local (I can imagine how this could be fun with a friend). Nice job!
Nice work on the art and gameplay! Makes me really dizzy though, maybe some blurring / simplification in the background would help reduce this. Nice work!
Neat idea, though it might give some people a bit of motion sickness. The different characters are nice, and I like that it isn't a rock-paper-scissors setup for character selection.
By the way, did you actually play through the whole of my game? If not, DO. From your comment, I get the feeling you played the first sixty seconds or so and assumed the game never moved on from that. If you have played through the whole game, do tell me, because I'm trying to convey certain things and if literally none of them come across, then I've done some things very badly, and need to learn from that. Hope you get back to me at some point.
My favorite part was the character selection and different abilities.

Very much like the idea and the option for multiplayer. The character selection is a nice touch as well. Perhaps add a 'Random' option if someone can't decide which character to pick? Also, if I had to make one change, it would be in the visibility of the bullets, either making them larger or slower so that it's easier to react to them as a player. Nice work though. I enjoyed this.
Thanks for playing my game, I've tested yours but i dont understand the gameplay and controls, i got a little bit dizzy, i would like to have a mode like in the Call of Juarez duels :)
Really liked the concept, It would of been cool to have a dash or something besides jump. Also background was spinning pretty fast and like others had said it got a bit dizzying. Awesome game though, had fun playing it.
As player 2 it is hard to see your status bars. This feels like it was inspired by dive-kick, but it just felt like mashing buttons was the way to go instead of the strategy that emerged in dive kick.

Nice job!
