Surprisingly this is the second most shocking game I've played so far this LD. Any other LD it would have been hands down the most shocking. Anyway, great job, hilarious.

A fun game about attacking your opponent with towels. Nice work! there's a glitch where i couldn't stop attacking though....which was weird.

Oh my god best art style and idea ever. Aside from that, the actual fighting game isn't too exciting and could have used a bit more strategy.
I also found a bug where if I tap the attack rapidly it constantly loops through the attack animation and I can't stop it.

Oh! Thanks for all your comments :) We will check both bugs and try to solve them ASAP! stuffedgravy I agree with you we needed a bit more strategy (as most fighting games) but we decided to keep it simple for the LD.

It looks pretty nice, but it's a bit too simple for my tastes.

Great idea implemented well. I had a problem hitting my opponent though - was never able to score a hit for some reason - don't know if a bug or if I'm missing something, but I tried for quite some time. Otherwise, love the concept and the graphics and sound were great.

Thanks guys! @DaveCarlile I believe that bug is already fixed, which version did you play? Thanks!

I've tried both the latest PC version and the Web version, single and 2-player. The opponent never hits me either. The bo... I mean penis physics are amazing though.

Thanks for your feedback :) Yeah, the penis physics were hard work, took about half of the development time. They were worth it though :P

This is hilarious, haha! Played the 2 player version, but the guy on the left kept winning! :(

I was working in this game, my first comment was only a joke! I think we made a fun game but it is not for me to judge.

Nice job! I like the general idea. It could definitely use some more strategy as others have already said. The graphics and audio are great, as is the basic idea.

I ran into a bug where the AI opponent showed as stuck blocking, but the sound made me think it was still attacking.

This game's concept and presentation is laugh-out-loud hilarious. I wish there had been a little more variety in the move set, but the animations were so stuffed full of character and personality, I didn't really mind. Good game!

So short yet so humorously fun! Greatest parody ever of the fight club. (in spanish the joke is easy, as we could say "el club de la ducha" which is fairly close to the original "el club de la lucha"). Break the internets!

@jukimv2986 Haha! We also thought of that, and made a Spanish logo too!

Best black use of swinging black squares award.

Excellent music, too!

There's not too much to the game: it's pretty hard to lose if you keep spamming the towel button and there seem to only be two options as far as combat goes. Still, points for humor and style!
