I love the bongos, well approach to the theme...

Developer

Thanks for your comment!

Funny bite-sized game that captures the theme "unstable" in a way I haven't seen in any other game of this jam. Well done.

Developer

This is a nice concept for a game. I wish there was a leaderboard though.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for your comment!
I will include leaderboard in future!

Very interesting concept for a game, at first I thought it was going to be some sort of physics-based game where you push each other or something lol fits the theme though, good submission.

Haha really fun game and those bongos really fit with the vibe! Would be cool to have a next level where you control the legs with some keys or something

Developer

Thanks for your comment!
To control legs is new idea for me. Thanks!

Submitted

Cool game! Could've been more challenging. but I still had fun. Well done!

Pretty neat idea. I'd like to see this polished and more added to it after the jam, if you're up for it. 

Developer

Thanks for your comment!

Very competent. The design and AI could use some work, but the proof of concept is solid.

Good work!

Joints have potential!

Not sure I get how to play this but I won more than I loosed lol

Developer

Thanks for your comment!
Sorry for opponent weakness and less information about how to control.

Submitted

reminds me of the little big planet mortal kombat levels xD, so nostalgic

Developer

Thanks for your comment!
I didn't know about little big planet, but there are things like this in the world.

Submitted

would you like to rate my game as well? :D

Developer

Alright!

Interesting concept. Good start here and would like to see more.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for your comment!
I couldn't reach this concept without Jam. Joining Jam is exciting!

Submitted

I just sorta held my arms out and won every time. Cool 2D body physics, kinda reminds me of Happy Wheels and a few other games. Along with things people already mentioned, more sound effects would be good too.

Thanks for your comment!
Core of real Hand Sumo is Push and Sway. I can't say I simulated real Hand Sumo still.

Like Toribash.

I had fun. It was very easy to master though. Doesn't mean it's not fun, just that the novelty wears off fast.

More scenarios or mechanics would be nice.

I'll be releasing an advanced strategy guide for this game online for $39.99 plus shipping and handling.

*Opens guide*

*It just has one page saying “Hold your arms out and stand still”*

Thanks for your comment!
I should make games more responsive thanks.

Submitted

I won by doing nothing, cuz I hadn't figured the controls out yet. :D Still, fun idea for a game and good use of the theme! Good entry!

Developer

Thanks for your comment!
I'm sorry for less information for control. Maybe it need tutorial.

Submitted

Thats a really funny idea, well excecuted with the theme "unstable". Its actually quite fun to lightly push the other one down, having to chance for them to balance themself. That could be a super fun coop game, gotta say!
Great job ^^

Developer

Thanks for your comment!
Coop sounds nice too! I didn't have that point of view.

Submitted

Nice game, sometimes the collision doesn't work properly, and sometimes my opponent decides they want to face palm into the ground at full force

Developer

Thanks for your comment!
This game still has many problems fix someday.

Submitted

Very interesting little game. But it looks like two people are bowing to each other, hahahaha

Developer

Thanks for your comment!
Maybe they have good manner.
