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

Good work!

Joints have potential!

Submitted

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.

Submitted

Easy game since my opponent kept on falling over (until I laughed at the opponent and my character fell before my opponent did...), but I still liked playing it.

Thanks for your comment!
Sometimes opponent get strong(because all action is random)

Submitted

What a fun and funny little game nice work

Developer

Thanks for your comment!

Submitted

Simple but realy fun! I like the character design  =)

The addition of a leaderboard would be nice, but the game is fun anyway. Congrats! 

Developer

Thanks for your comment!
I thought leaderboard would not work(small players) but I'll include it.

Submitted

i like the usage of physics in this unique game :D

great concept !

well made !

Developer(+1)

Thanks for your comment! 
I don't understand physics at all, but it seems it work!

Submitted

I had the most awkward poses in this game lol

Developer(+1)

Thanks for your comment! 
Sometimes it seem like wrong, but it's just Hand Sumo(maybe)

Submitted

Very easy to learn .
If you plan to continue to develop this game further after the jam: more choosable characters and stages would be wonderful.

Developer

Thanks for your comment! 
I didn't have idea to add characters and stages. it can be nice.

Submitted

It was quite easy to figure out how to control, and a funny contest to play out. I played a few times
