Yo, if you really are 14 years old, that right there is something to be proud of ! :D

Sure, it's a bit buggy, but I managed to play with a stranger, and that is something that is extremely precious in a game jam !

Good job ! :D

Developer

Thank you very much :)

I am really 14

Submitted

Great game and really congratulations on making a multiplayer in 7 days!

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

I'm very impressed you got multiplayer working in a week - ONLINE no less. That's an achievement to be proud of! I found the camera a bit funky and I fell into an infinite grey abyss on a few occasions - but that's just a quirk of the game jam grind lol - nice work!

Developer

Thank you very much :)

Submitted

Wait... Is that REALLY a multiplayer game? Are you serious? Dammmmmmmmmn, you got big balls! I need to play with a friend x).

About the game itself... The controls are bit weird, the character is sometimes stuck in the ground, the ladders physics are weird... But it was still very fun ^^. And the whole multiplayer aspect fits the theme perfectly. Congratulations!

Developer

Thanks :) it's a real multiplayer, it loads a bot if there is no player online :)

Submitted

Rated! Nice graphics. I love pixel art. I also used pixel art.

If you don't mind, could you check out my game? I need some constructive criticism lol.

Thanks! I will

Making your game multiplayer is quite a risky choice, but I think it works pretty well for this type of game. Though it'll mean that it'll be hard to find other people to play with as time goes on. If you want to improve on the game, I would suggest looking into a different camera control system.

Submitted

Nice little game but art is used a bunch.

Submitted

Great game! I liked the art style, but the enclosing wall was a bit out of place (although for a gamejam, this is a detail ;) )

Submitted

Good game i like the mechanics. art is a bit over used though would have been wonderful if you made it your own but the idea itself is great! good luck on your future endeavors!

Submitted

nice game! check out mine too!

Submitted

Could you please rate my game https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-8/rate/1680919 ?

Submitted

Cool game, I like that it's multiplayer. The movement could be more responsive, I would also suggest to increase FOV of the camera, because sometimes I can't see where I am landing. But overall, well made :)

Developer

Thank you very much for the suggestions!

Submitted

Great little game :) would like to see a updated version!

Developer

Thank you very much : )

Submitted

Great job on getting multiplayer up and running. 

I did get stuck on a dead screen with Mohamed though and we just sat there for a while staring at each other's animations. Also not entirely certain that he's a real person.

I liked the art, cohesive palette throughout. Good job.

Developer

No there is a real person, for don't annoying the players after a couple of seconds you will put togheter with a bot :)

Submitted

Wow
