In what way does your game fit the theme?
This game has the player controlling knights who work together to fend off enemies. As you gain new knights, they become stronger by increasing the player's point multiplier. Each knight added to the "QWERT" lanes can move, but a full team can cover all lanes without the player having to manage gaps in their formation. A full group of knights can also unleash a special attack that wipes all enemies off the board and restores all health. You are truly stronger when all knights are standing together on the battlefield.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, we did everything from scratch within the jam's 1-week time limit including all 3D models/graphics, music, sound effects, and code.

Hey, thanks for the kind words! Glad you found our game and enjoyed it.
The movement definitely adds a layer of difficulty. I will say our first pass at the move mechanic was way harder to manage. You had to select a knight and move to another lane instead of just moving the group together with 1 arrow key. But 470 is not a bad start at all! That’s a lot better than my first few play tests, haha. Thanks again for playing!

Thank you for the awesome feedback! Glad you enjoyed it. Haha, it was supposed to be just a visual cue for the tutorial length, not really a loading screen. You only see it the first time you play. Thanks again for the kind words! I’ll definitely check out your game too.

Thanks for the nice comment and glad you liked our game so much! We did discuss making armor affect gameplay but did run out of time for that haha. It's awesome you played and enjoyed our game so much!
Yes! We both like music, and when thinking of “Stronger Together” games, Rock Band came to mind. Since Guitar Hero is more of a solo thing, we thought about ways to combine a team fighting game with the mechanics of a rhythm-based game like GH. There were plenty of additional features we wanted to add on, but this is what we could get done in a week. Really happy to see you enjoyed it so much!!
