Did you work in a team?
Just me! I did the design, programming, and music. My brothers helped with testing. Note: I hit some multiplayer hiccups on the last day, so this submission was one day late.

Was the resolution a challenge?
I settled on a 50 by 50 pixel arena and minimal color scheme early on, which made low resolution not too much of a hurdle.

What did you learn?
I learned how to make a networked game from scratch! Multiplayer is hard, tho.

Glad to see I didn't make the only multiplayer entry!

Fun little game. I think the dynamic background helped elevate the simple visual style, and I like the muted but varied color palette.

Developer

Appreciate it!

Loved the music!

Every fighter has different gimmicks so I tried to win with each of them against the bot.

Great job implementing both multiplayer and AI!

Developer

Thanks for playing!

This is really flipping cool! Style is brilliant. Bold move doing a multiplayer game, but I think you've pulled it off! Love the fact that the music is in 11/8 (that's a time sig I can get on board with!) :D. Nice work!

Fun game. Unfortunately, I don't have any friends so I had to play against a bot. I hated that bot with a burning passion. But not because of the AI, it was perfectly balanced! (Not too hard, not too dumb!) Well done.

Thanks for playing @CripsySky!

Unfortunately, I can't seem to play it. Your gameplay gif looks real nice, though.

I'm on Windows 10. It's giving me: "This application requires a Java Runtime Environment 1.8.0_74".

Developer

Thanks for the message @okayscott! Did you happen to download the 32 bit version?

Submitted (1 edit)

Yeah. I also tried the 64-bit version and got the same thing 😞. I don't know anything about Java, but I'm guessing it expects it to be installed separately and is not packaged in the executable. Sorry.

Developer

Yeah Java is currently required – I'll see about packaging the JRE with the game, though
