Uh-Oh. Looks like you've gone and pissed off the gods again. This time they've thrown you into an eternal game of Super Smash Bros, but something seems a bit off...

Take control of Tony and Vinny, two drunk Bronx natives doomed to forever duel in this battle of super smashed brothers. They're so drunk, they're required to forget seven moves and/or stocks (lives).

Controls

WASD: Movement

Arrow Keys: Attack in that direction

In the game lobby, perform your sacrifices and try out the controls before starting the game!

NOTE This game is entirely online multiplayer. If no one is online grab some friends! Be gentle on the server though. Server is US based so ping will be bad to other parts of the world.

What an awesome entry! It definitely helped that I had a bunch of viewers on my channel to play with. The lag is a bit intense, but if you can get past it and play with a group of people it's really enjoyable I wish it were a bit easier to get going so we could have tried out other movesets.

Fun game, I mean it is pretty minimalistic but I had a lot of fun. Congrats on getting a networking game done within this timeframe :). Would smash Joshua through the floor again 11/10

It's impressive that you got a networking game working within the time limits! That said - the latency between pressing a button and seeing a response was a bit frustrating. That said, a good initial start on something.

@aurel Was the latency on your side or the server's side? Would be helpful to know!

@N4tticus Well I went back to try it out to let you know but I keep getting this:

N4tticusauthor6 Dec 2018, 18:49

@aurel I just restarted the server... Someone made about 2000 requests to the server :/

VikTris6 Dec 2018, 19:13

great concept, it was laggy as hell though but sacrificing movesets!

Carbonara6 Dec 2018, 19:14

I realy like how the sacrifices are looking, I think I will try in the future this view system where you see the player moves in an option menu: "jump is this key, pressing space: a player jump in a window". Nice game, nice job!

@viktris @carbonara Thanks for the feedback! Sorry you guys came at the worst time! I just finished some server maintenance to prevent people from making too many requests and crashing the server. If you try again it should be a lot smoother

Well done, implementing multiplayer in a jam is tough. I managed to find one over person and we were fighting it out quite well. I was really enjoying it, I was winning. However the sever stopped in the middle of the fight. I am unsure if they left the game or if it was an error. Overall I did enjoy the game.

hahahahaaaaaaaaaaa, so funny loved it. specially that air attack with head

Great fun, not played a multiplayer Ludum Dare entry before.

And Ha oh dear derpezoid whooped Vinny's (me) butt. It was a good fight though.

Interesting that you're doing it through ngrok, I guess it's cheaper than a linode. Seemed to work pretty well. Good job!

Would be cool for some sounds whilst I hit someone and maybe some animations. But the multiplayer aspect is fun in itself.

Fun multiplayer game for Ludum Dare, unfortunately I have some lag/delay. Nice mechanic sacrifice feature, that makes the game more competitive! I have been using the name field to chat with others, do add a better chat method on post ludum dare version :smile:

I sunk so much time into this game. It plays so well! The sacrificing mechanic allows for a huge variety in playstyle! Personally I always sacraficed all of my ground attacks and only went for aerials. It was so much fun.
