I would try to time my movement to coincide with the enemy, but then I would transform and promptly be knocked back by the AI. caused a little frustration, but I can see the potential!"},{"author_name":"Przekop","author_uid":"91564","time":"Apr 20, 2016 @ 7:59pm","epoch":1461182040,"text":"i can see potential, but as it was said before, gameplay is chaotic, I couldn't predict whether i will be hit or not.

A little too easy vs ai as I could just constantly go to one side and win :) Must be very fun multiplayer and maybe also with a jump mechanic? All in all well done and nice music!"},{"author_name":"Faulkin","author_uid":"86432","time":"Apr 20, 2016 @ 8:07pm","epoch":1461182520,"text":"Really nice presentation but the combat needs some tuning. I couldn't really notice any advantage to timing my attacks vs just blindly pushing towards the opponent."},{"author_name":"rahulparihar","author_uid":"87964","time":"Apr 21, 2016 @ 2:10am","epoch":1461204300,"text":"Nice game! This could work great for a handheld game. I would like to play multiplayer too. Anyway, loved the minimal visuals, and camera work. :)"},{"author_name":"PeachTreeOath","author_uid":"63987","time":"Apr 21, 2016 @ 7:20am","epoch":1461222900,"text":"Idea was alright but a bit hard to play."},{"author_name":"ObsessiveNotion","author_uid":"92905","time":"Apr 21, 2016 @ 12:55pm","epoch":1461243000,"text":"What a brawl it was!

Sometimes it is a bit hard to predict when to attack, but it is funny and good overall. Good job!"},{"author_name":"curtamyth","author_uid":"63895","time":"Apr 26, 2016 @ 1:11am","epoch":1461632760,"text":"The AI was definitely a bit too easy but I really like the concept and the music was superb!"},{"author_name":"orukinawa","author_uid":"34628","time":"Apr 26, 2016 @ 10:41am","epoch":1461666960,"text":"The controller swapping really threw me off. I think you should put it in as a feature that happens randomly but make sure there are visual cues for the players to notice whether they swapped sides. That will keep players on their toes"},{"author_name":"AinoraZ","author_uid":"50640","time":"Apr 27, 2016 @ 10:15pm","epoch":1461795000,"text":"It has potential for sure but it's not finished enough. It seems that just holding down a button is enough to win at times and the timing is too hard to do. It needs power ups, more action, something. Overall good and the idea is there but needs a little more!"}],"images":["ld35\/92354-2be33d4a6d594baadfb09d8b2c291f5d.jpg","ld35\/92354-8062ec123a6da7a0076be2528b950b67.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/nk.itch.io\/polybrawl","text":"Web"},{"url":"https:\/\/nk.itch.io\/polybrawl","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"2197","g_author":"92354","g_event":"LD35","g_eventkey":"33","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"2137","g_title":"POLYBRAWL","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"466","g_commentcount":"12","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\/\/542293\/92354-shot0-1460938528.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/542293\/92354-shot1-1460938584.gif-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"A minimalist micro-brawler for 1-2 players, starring lovable abstract polygons.\r\n\r\nTiming is everything!
