I don't plan on actually submitting my project (and won't have it finished by September; I took a good while to actually get properly going again after July mostly went to Art Fight) but I'm making a multiplayer top-down shooter with optional mouse controls and a toy theme, where you control a remote controlled hovercraft toy that drifts around and can be boosted towards different directions.

I am always hooked when I read multiplayer :)

Tank-like controls?

You could compare it to tanks (like the tank minigame in Wii Play) except the thing you're controlling is continuously moving forwards and bounces off of walls. There's a separate movement direction and shooting direction, where one button shoots in the shooting direction, and the other changes the moving direction to the shooting direction. With a SNES mouse, the shooting direction always looks towards a cursor. With a standard controller, pressing a button on the d-pad will make the shooting direction start rotating to reach the target direction you pressed.

It's a sequel to https://novasquirrel.itch.io/sliding-blaster but greatly expanded.
