I would love it if one player could control the car and the other could control the gun. It's not very clear that with some guns you can hold down the fire button and with others you can't. The confusion and randomness obviously works better in a couch multiplayer setting.  Fun concept, good luck!

Developer

thanks for playing and reviewing!

That is an interesting idea. I will take that into consideration for a future update. 

The original idea was to have the ability to allow up to 4 players to each control a car using either controllers or multiple devices (not yet implemented) with ai filling in for missing players. 

I could add some kind of indicator for what fire type each weapon has but i feel that can be quickly figured out. Currently only the minigun can auto fire while held down. The machine gun fires in bursts of 3 but if you keep tapping then you can basically auto fire.

The bots are super basic currently and just fire towards the nearest player constantly with randomised movement but i have plans to improve this given time.


Good luck to you too!

Honestly a really fun and creative game. The bots were lowkey kinda hard to fight tho. Maybe I'm just bad lmao

Developer

thanks! Yeah they are a bit difficult but if you keep moving then you can stay ahead of their bullets. They always shoot towards the nearest player and their movement is randomised for now.


The concept was designed around being later adapted into couch multiplayer which will work a lot better.  But thats not implemented yet for the jam.
