Surprisingly fun versus game!

Submitted

I wasn’t able to play with anyone but it seems like a very fun game to play with someone else, chaotic in a fun way. I think I would prefer if a kill reset the world state, so projectiles wouldn’t linger into the subsequent rounds or you wouldn’t be stuck in an attack for a few seconds, but otherwise well done!

Very Cool!

Chaotic and fun game! And also really funny! :-)

That's fun ))

this is a very rare example of how Jank can make a game better. I only really have one complaint; you should really be able to skip the cut scenes. by the end of my game the score was 140 to 117

That's great. I had to kidnap a friend to try it and we had fun! Sometime it's a little hard to see who won. Maybe a little 'finisher' animation would have been nice. But great idea and execution!

I wish I could play to this game with someone D= Great work!

This was great. Laughed out loud when I just blew myself tf up. Definitely a game I would play with some buddies to avoid doing schoolwork back in the day. Great job!

I wish I had someone to play with, this looks like I could be really fun! The randomized moveset is a great idea that would surely make for lots of chaotic matches. Animations surprised me with how fluid they were. Nice nice work!

Great game!! had a lot of fun.

Would recommend having a lesser number of keys as it is pretty confusing and messy(*fun). Enjoyed the CLAMSEKAI and hoping to have a lot more fun with friends.

Kudos!!

Coudn't play with a friend, but I could definitely see the value here! The animations are amazing and gameplay feels super fun. Very well done.

coherent aesthetics, fun game, and that Saiyan  is the cherry on top!

This game was a lot of chaotic fun! I loved the randomness of the abilities each round, which kept things unpredictable and hilarious. It definitely made for some wild battles! Great job on the animations and overall execution.

seeing clams gojo cracked me up.

This was very funny to play, I liked it a lot. Very interesting is the fact that the keys to use the attacks change every round

Oh wow this game is SO COOL!!! :O

I love what you did with the theme, and the title, really original and stands out!

The gameplay, although it requires a friend to be there, is reeally interesting and fun! The animations are all well done and fun and the randomization of moves each round makes for very chaotic battles (and limits move spamming, as the self destruct move exists).

As for all the rest, LOVED the animations that play every 10 kills! they are incredibly funny, laughed every time (considered I watched those anime or seen the memes).

I don't know if you plan on continuing this, but I really hope to see this evolve! I would love a singleplayer mode with you VS ai, or even a online multiplayer mode! It would be absolutely sick and I would play it for hours! :D

Submitted

This is a really fun take on the theme! I love the range of abilities and their animations. Great work!
