Sorry, but what are the controls? I can't seem to get any arrows to fire.

Unfortunately, the web version is broken for me. :frowning2:

After figuring out the controls I enjoyed playing with the mechanics. It also took me a few attempts to realize that aiming down actually made the arrow travel up and in an arc. With a little more work on the physics, or maybe just explaining the intended mechanics as well as a spending some time on the graphics I could see this game turning out to be quite entertaining. Well done!

Very silly lol. I got BASIC gorillas vibes from this. You may want to add the controls to the description. Fun game!

good job all be it a bit simple on graphics, I liked the mechanic!

I find it funny that your implementation of the theme is built on the honor system haha. It was pretty unexpected and funny that you can kill the other player. Very silly game.

Very fun. It would be neat to have a sense of urgency, like if the targets were advancing, or if each player only had so much time to make their shot.

Controls are pretty nice, but I'm pretty sure arrows shouldn't flip while flying :joy:

Reminded my of a simple version of Angry birds or a really old trajectory game I played back on an old Macintosh. Very simple but addictive gameplayer! I didn't find the controls very intuitive, but I guess they're probably better suited for a touch screen?

I did not immediately understand how to shoot)), but then I figured it out. An interesting concept. Good job.

Controls should be clearer

As someone with a younger sibling, I consider being able to kill player 2 a solid mechanic! GG fun game.

Not sure how the game relates to the theme. The controls need some work, maybe you can have the throwing ark stretch from the active player to the mouse position? Like the concept though

I like the fact that player one can kill player 2, but player 2 can't kill payer one :laughing: .
However, I think that the aiming system is not working as expected, I do not figured out how to aim properly.

Good job anyway :)

Ok my bad after playing again I figured out that I was trying to shoot the wrong side !

Once I figured out how to aim and fire (*HINT* you can basically draw unlimited amount back and aim straight ahead ;P) i was a breeze, then I went down into the comments and saw you could kill player 2 so I had to try THAT XD great additional mechanic.
