Libelle by Verrazano

[raw]
made by Verrazano for LD26 (JAM)
Libelle: Dragonfly
a fast-ish top down block shooter! purely mutliplayer. the green areas are safe zones. First to five kills wins the match.

Controls: wasd for movemnt, click to shoot (you can hold) press tab to look at the score.

It still has a few errors, I need to really fix the crashing on join. The best way to join a game currently is open the client and let it crash without closing it open a second client, then you should be able to join.
--
config.txt in the config for the client you can change your name, your color and the port/ip of server you are connecting to. I will be hosting a server at 67.188.172.220 port 6080 you can try hosting your own server and connecting to it at 127.0.0.1 for better success.

config.txt for the server you can set your server name and console width height, and the map to be loaded. the current default map is called center piece.

linux build coming soon.

Haha yea I saw that. That's one of the things I wish I could fix about the game. The bullets are created on the client side of whoever fired them then sent to the server and the server relays them to the other players so your bullets are a little bit behind where it actually shows them. Server doesn't bother to track bullets hitting people all done client side, which is a little bit janky, thanks for the match + you gave me a run for my money 3 to 2

Pretty cool little multiplayer shooter. I thought the safe zone concept was neat and the music changes were pretty gnarly. Well done!

Ah yeah it was fun, but I only was connected for a brief second. It was great during that second though!

Linking the Windows version, when using Linux as caption is a no-go.

The Linux package seems to contain the Windows version. =(
