Quite enjoyable, but i think the monkey is a bit tanky
This is unfortunately due to our esteemed voice actor, Maneatstaco. He did great as the announcer but once we asked him to do the gorilla his tone became very serious and he said "I promised never again...but for this game I'll do it".
He became very method, insisting on only eating the diet of the Eastern Gorilla, importing thousands of dollars worth of leaves from the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. I went to collect the audio files from his house and he was on his knuckles on the ground, creating the motion capture you see in the game. I dared not look into his eyes or he would think it was a territorial dispute.
We noticed once I put the audio files in that the gorilla became much more difficult. I asked him if he tampered with the file in such a way that it altered the code and he just did his grunts. He then acted like he was gaining the ability to speak (basically mimicking Caesar in Planet of the Apes) and said "KAH...NAUT....BE...TAINED!!!" He then lept at an inhuman speed breaking out his basement window. Blood went everywhere. No one has been able to contact him since, but a friend recently thought he spotted him on top of an iHop.
So unfortunately, that is the reason why the gorilla is so tanky. We needed to keep his performance in the game.
Not bad, but the use of the theme is a bit of an excuse imo. The grow power could have just been the health bar of the game would have stayed mostly the same. However, I mostly enjoyed the game and the art is nice!
Fun game, feels like it has some bugs but you have mentioned it in the notes he eventually comes back down after a minute, nice take on scaling up
The sprite and style are very cute, I love the squirrel so much!
Nice, I had a lot of fun playing this entry. The mechanics are simple enough to get your hands on without needing instructions or tuto, the difficulty increases steadily for each fight, and the sound design/music are on point.
I would have loved to "need" to use the floor slam though, instead of it just being a feature.
Nice game, I had a lot of fun with it, even though I never got past level 2. I like the artstyle, and it felt novel since I never really played any of this type of game from the jam.
i really liked it ! loved the art
lots of nice systems and work were put into this, good job. A block mechanic would be a nice addition
.
Yeah, mega cool that you made a fighting game. Unfortunately it's very time-consuming to reach G-Mode, but after that it's fun to beat up your opponent. In the third fight, the opponent was stuck in the air on the right. I could reach him by spamming spacebar and punching and sometimes my character jumped and performed a punch in the air. The icons above were unfortunately a break in style and there were only 3 fights, but so far good work!
Great job! Fun fighting game with the finisher mechanic. I tried jump slamming the bat(?) a couple times but it wasn't registering damage.
The hitbox is a bit too small at the moment. If you grow big it'll hit. Fun to use as a finisher. Thanks for playing!
very underrated game. a lot of thought was put into this. Satisfying combat and outstanding art. Good job!
This game looks great, cute characters and its fun to play!
I love the style of the game! The main character give Sprigatito vibes.
Actually pretty fun, but really hard!! I love it! its a great game, congrats!
This is harder than Mike Tyson in Punch-Out, and I love it. Good job!
nice game a bit too hard for me though
Great little fighting bossrush game, though level 2 is already solid!
Would be very grateful if you tried our game!
I love fighting games! Great job!
I enjoyed the way you added each ability unlock between the battles, ran through a glitch on final boss had to restart but I was able to defeat him anyways, this is a really nice game!
neat, charming and well executed. Really nice entry, good job :)
