Pressure Wars by skyr

[raw]
made by skyr for LD32 (COMPO)
Welcome to pressure wars!

In pressure wars you launch bottle rockets at your opponent, trying to throw away all of the bottles.
You can also rearange and build your own structures using bottles before battle.
You lose when you have no more bottles near you to launch.

Instructions:
Select one mode from the starting screen. Use your mouse or touch to rearrange the bottles and the press the button to begin. Click or tap on a bottle on your side to arm it on the launcher. If the bottle is armed the launch button will change. Click the angle arrows to rise or lower the launcher. Click the pressure button to increase the pressure in the bottle. Click the launch button to fire the rocket.

Modes:
Practice: Build structures and fire rockets at them.
P.vs.P.: Take turns with another player on the same device (the build phase is common for both players).
P.vs.Com.: The opponent is control by the computer

Notes:
Sometimes the bottles fail to lock on the launcher. If the launch button has an x on it the bottle is not locked on the launcher. Click or tap on it again to lock.
If you add too much pressure the bottle will be pushed of the launcher. Click or tap on it again to lock.
Sometimes the AI opponent does not complete its turn. Use the buttons to fire for it.

Tools:

I had trouble getting the bottles to even fly, the buttons seemed to not work when clicking on them. The physics is a little hard to use when arranging the bottles too, as they just rotate and knock the others down. The graphics are nice though!

Cute little game. The UI could use some work though.

Good, but you should add keyboard controls.
