Try to get through the rooms as fast as possible in this top-down game before your opponent is either two rooms further than you and your unstable room collapses! Also the first one two finish room 20 wins!

This was a fun challenging idea. The music keeps up the intensity. Good job!!

I don't have friends but I try to play alone. Seems funny to play with someone, good job!

Always a risk to make a multiplayer.. nobody has friends in a gamejam! Still, even though I tried to control both of the players, it was still a nice feeling entry with some cool music. Good work!

I was playing alone too, but game is very fun and comfortable to play, nice choice of music and retro-styled graphics.

Thanks for still trying out my game, makes me really happy! :smile:
Maybe I'd add a Singleplayer mode, but I suppose it makes most fun when played together

Nice game. It's cool that you can play with a friend. I obviously won :D

Played with a room mate and we loved it! The powerups were a really nice touch of polish, and the mechanic of having sequential rooms stay on the screen makes for a lot of good competition. I thought the music was very effective as well. Would love to see a bit of animation on the player characters though

Originally played it alone but I enjoyed the concept enough to get my sister to play as well. The concept is original and could definitely be expanded on into a full game. I think that instead of the rooms just appearing, make them spawn on the right side of the screen out of view and have the camera move right, killing the other player when they go too far left, this will make it feel a bit more seamless and ensure smooth game flow. Really liked this game and encourage you to keep working on it. Great entry :smile:

Thank you @cakts ! I was also thinking about this and just lacked the time. Really happy to hear that you enjoyed it. I'm also considering expanding on this entry and try to make it something bigger :smile:

I think this is a really really cool idea, really enjoyed this. I can imagine this with even more players as a big party game. I actually loved the concept that you can only fit two rooms on a screen and then you get cut off. With a bit more polish I could definitely see this being made into a successful game
