Well done for the Jam! So I played The Cheap$ with two of my friends and we had a blast rushing our objectives, dashing everywhere, and throwing garbage all over the place :D
The only bug we encountered was that the game crashed on my PC when joining a session. Restarting my PC stopped that from happening somehow.
This “frantic button mashing confusion” kind of gameplay is perfect. Graphics and audio are solid. I love it! Do you plan to continue working on the game? Adding levels for instance? In any case that’s a game I’ll keep somewhere in case me and my friends want to have a quick fun time ^^
If it can be of any help here's the error I had in the logs when the game kept crashing:
System.Exception: UPnP could not forward ANY port in the 12346-12356 range at TheCheaps.NetworkClient..ctor(IPAddress ip, Int32 server_port, Boolean use_upnp) in /home/runner/work/MGJam2021/MGJam2021/Code/TheCheaps/NetworkClient.cs:line 69
This worked fine for me - although I have no friends so I guess the fun is limited. I think I achieved the first mission though. Single player mode would have been good for me, but props to you guys for getting multiplayer going in a gamejam entry!
Couldn't run it :(
Sorry! We have successfully tested the game in local and remote games, but sometimes the join button will just crash the release build :(
Personally I had issue on host side, couldn't properly enter port and when confirming, game froze and eventually crashed. It is definitely something system specific since it worked for you guys, it just sadly might be relatively common. If I can help you somehow determining what caused the issue on my system let me know, game looks fun from screenshots :). PS: I've made sure that game is allowed by firewall.
We would love to get insights on why the game is crashing on your system. It would be great if you could try to compile the game locally:

Having some issues to get Lidgren.Network up and running so I can compile, any "Critical...need to know...information" I might be missing?
