An interesting concept.

Let's star by saying, that the main idea of leaping at your opponent, in order to push them out of the bounds of the ring, fits the theme perfectly! It is also fun to play in it's current state, and if you'd work on it a bit more, that could become really something! Unfortunately, for now, the game is a bit too easy, even on the hard level.

The graphics are okay. I liked the models of the sumo wrestlers. They look funny, their animations are funnier, and in general, I like the minimalistic approach to this game!

However, I don't like the minimalistic approach to the sound effects. There are only three sound effects total in this game, THREE. That makes the game feel empty, and, no offense, but I found the voices really irritating.

This is a really simple game, with an idea that has potential, and that is fun to play! Should you continue the development, and add some polish and balancing changes, this could be a really good game!

Thank you for the interesting feedback :)

Great that the work on animations shows. It's the first time we applied rigging in Blender, and it delivered.

The minimalistic approach partly is our style, but also to make it fit within the allotted time :D. If we continue we'll definitely focus on the difficulty and sound effects. Thanks again!

I really liked this game. It helps that I’m a fan of sumo, so it definitely caught my eye right away. Great sport to use with the theme.

Managed to dominate on easy, only to be destroyed on medium and hard. The controls felt like I wasn’t always in control, but that might have been the point of the game.

Would love to see some more of this game. With a bit of AI tweaking and polish, I think there is a solid game here. Well done!

Great animations! Seems like it’s too easy, but it could be fun!

Nice work on the animations for the sumos and enjoyed playing it.  I agree with Nicky with it being a bit too easy to win on the hardest difficulty.  More moves or obstacles would be a good to add for future update.

Thanks, this was our first try using rigging in Blender, once it was working it exceeded our expectations, was really nice.

Thanks for the feedback! Agree on the difficulty part, it's too easy to win right now.

Love the concept! These two sumo wrestlers are cute and funny! But even the hardest mode is way too easy, from what I feel maybe between the leap and dodge, could there be another move, so they counter another like a triangle? Still, great work!
