Wow. You're the first person on LD I saw who uses markdown. Nice game, nevertheless. :slight_smile:

Fun interpretation of the theme! I'm not very good at the game, haha, but it played smoothly and I understood what needed to be done.

Really sweet! It took me a moment to realize that the Hadouken-like attacks were indeed my "basic" attack, but after that it was smooth sailing (apart from testing it on my own.) The voice acting adds a lot to the game, and I really appreciate the mechanical differences between the two characters. Being able to stand on top of the other player was also a great detail! Good work :)

Nice game! The game controller option is much appreciated and the controlls are very nice and responsive. I get that the theme is utilized with the "points" but it could've been used perhaps a bit more, the notion of sacrifice wasn't really apparent to me. Some more sound effects would also be nice like swings and punches (Your voice acting was good btw!). The art is also very well made.
Good work!
Good work!

Was very fun to play with a friend because of the funny sound effect but you can't really fight skillfully it's just spamming. I like the sacrifice mechanic but because of the one hit kill there isn't really a reason to use the special attack.

@shakedimus thanks for playing! i believe there can be some pretty skillful play once all the mechanics are learned (dashing/special use/etc.) so i'll be sure to put in a tutorial mode in the updated version ;)
I couldn't tell when I could or could not use my special (B on Xbox controller). I see in the description there is a point system but it's not (easily?) visible in game.
Well done and thanks for the good time, albeit short.
