Awesome idea - it really makes you think as you're moving around.

Great use of the theme, and great gameplay mechanics. I liked how the different enemies required different strategy, though I felt a little sorry for the poor box that spawned with zero axes."},{"author_name":"MasterOfNaN","author_uid":"50499","time":"Apr 22, 2015 @ 11:39am","epoch":1429702440,"text":"Great fun, and very slick - thanks!\r<br\/>Loving the look of the axe trails, and the whole world slowly spinning somehow makes it seem even more dangerous.\r<br\/>Think I'd probably prefer independent move\/spin controls.\r<br\/>The variety in enemy types works a treat - plenty of depth from learning how to best handle each kind."},{"author_name":"Enneract","author_uid":"11083","time":"Apr 22, 2015 @ 2:33pm","epoch":1429712880,"text":"A fun game, would make for even more fun with multi-player :)"},{"author_name":"Bensonance","author_uid":"17953","time":"Apr 22, 2015 @ 2:34pm","epoch":1429712940,"text":"haha novel and fun game idea.

The controls are first confusing but as soon as I got the feel of it really fun and hard to master ;)\r<br\/>Really innovative. Also the mood for a real battle arena was set.\r<br\/>The only thing missing in the mix was a quake3 like soundtrack or something similar harhar ;) well done sir\/mam'!"},{"author_name":"kunzbe","author_uid":"20508","time":"Apr 23, 2015 @ 10:41pm","epoch":1429828560,"text":"ps: gold medal, 11 kills.

The squelching of boxes exploding in blood is particularly satisfying.  The random enemies work with the physics really well, and I like the feeling of jostling around trying to get an opening - very cool.  The combat is so fast that you don't have time to line up attacks, often just flailing and hoping for the best.  I managed to get a diamond level score of 39 which I was proud of :)\r<br\/>Would benefit a lot from some music (and maybe a few arenas that unlock when reaching a certain score)"}],"images":["ld32\/31137-fdb075e6e0175c7ed8680eae41a8e92d.jpg","ld32\/31137-86d40460e14b8d2208cd9791761a783c.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/koti.kapsi.fi\/~muumi\/unity\/Ludum2015\/battleaxes\/ludicrous_battleaxes.html","text":"WebPlayer"},{"url":"http:\/\/koti.kapsi.fi\/~muumi\/unity\/Ludum2015\/battleaxes\/ludicrous_battleaxes.zip","text":"Windows"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"12258","g_author":"31137","g_event":"LD32","g_eventkey":"27","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"12288","g_title":"Ludicrous Battleaxes","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"255","g_commentcount":"14","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/444368\/31137-shot0-1429550099.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/444368\/31137-shot1-1429550099.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"The basic primitives are in struggle again in this difficult arena battle with a totally unconventional weapons!\r\nCan you get the greatest medal?\r\n   \r\nResources used:\r\n \r\n Floor texture form http:\/\/www.cgtextures.com\/\r\n  \r\nSounds from Freesound:\r\n S: 1cutCup2.aif by spluta -- http:\/\/www.freesound.org\/people\/spluta\/sounds\/2552\/ -- License: Creative Commons 0\r\n S: slap.wav by VitaWrap -- http:\/\/www.freesound.org\/people\/VitaWrap\/sounds\/208432\/ -- License: Creative Commons 0\r\n S: Rumble Bass 2.wav by DanielsonIII -- http:\/\/www.freesound.org\/people\/DanielsonIII\/sounds\/68394\/ -- License: Creative Commons 0\r\n S: Book Falling.wav by justeluis -- http:\/\/www.freesound.org\/people\/justeluis\/sounds\/185041\/ -- License: Creative Commons 0\r\n S: metalhit.wav by freemaster2 -- http:\/\/www.freesound.org\/people\/freemaster2\/sounds\/117538\/ -- License: Creative Commons 0\r\n S: egg crack sounds mixed.wav by Reitanna -- http:\/\/www.freesound.org\/people\/Reitanna\/sounds\/253798\/ -- License: Creative Commons 0\r\n S: VERY LOUD Stab.wav by Northern_Monkey -- http:\/\/www.freesound.org\/people\/Northern_Monkey\/sounds\/176550\/ -- License: Creative Commons 0\r\n S: VERY LOUD Splat.wav by Northern_Monkey -- http:\/\/www.freesound.org\/people\/Northern_Monkey\/sounds\/176549\/ -- License: Creative Commons 0","title":"Ludicrous Battleaxes"}
