Haha I really enjoyed duffing up that brown bear! I'm not a fan of beat-em-ups but the animation makes this more appealing and funnier than the average fare. Well done!

SO AWESOME

This is really great! I'm pretty impressed with how deep the base moveset is (with the two types of attacks and 3 versions, neutral, up and down). The combat felt quite expressive as a result. It felt good to dominate the AI in single player, I might try this with my friends in 2 player mode to see who the king ape really is.

I also love the little FX everywhere. The white particles on hit and the health loss FX are all very nice. The animations for the apes are excellent. Very readable and very cool. I was considering recommending some extra 'juice', like screenshake and more particles on hits, but I can see how that might be distracting in 2 player mode so I think it's a tough choice.

Awesome job!

I love the ideas in this game. The movement feels really nice, and I was laughing while playing. One thing to keep in mind about the controls though! Control + W is a command to close the tab in google Chrome, so doing the light attack in the air closes the tab in html5. I decided the download would be the best bet. Glad I did!

Ahh oops didn't even think about browser commands! Thankfully there are backup buttons and you can use O/P/C/V instead of ctrl/shift in the browser version, but yeah oops!

LOL this game rules.  I love it a lot. The animations are so fluid, with some great smearing going on.  I loved the particle effects, like how the health falls off the bar.  You got the perfect balance between a fairly sophisticated fighting game with lots of moves/animations/flow but keeping it nice and simple.

The animation was great here! Movement were communicated really well visually. Also +1 because I didn't expect to see a fighting game among the submissions. Great work!
