boing SMASH by dokidoki
boing SMASH: Fix the buildings that the ball smashes while staying alive.
Supports two players, but if you're playing solo you can ignore the other player and play until you get squished. Or you can "cheat" and kick him to death to win!
This is my first time entering Ludum Dare, and I'm pretty happy with my result, warts and all.

Played it: my kinda game.
Love the kick mechanic, makes stealing a fix that bit sweeter.
Great concept and fun implementation
Forever alone T_T
Would have liked music for sure!
Loved the Amiga bouncing ball!
My only complaint is that it's somewhat hard to tell exactly where the ball is going to hit.
also +cool points for the amiga ball.
However somewhat boring with only one player. It really needs an AI to fight against.
Nice job.
+1 for amiga ball
The graphics, audio, and gameplay fit the mood of an oldskool arcade game perfectly.
+1
Plus points for 2-player action! xD
He got mad when I kept kicking him away from buildings. :D
Then the ball came down and crushed him, and we had a good laugh.
@lapogo I haven't really done networking in Flash... I doubt I could get online multiplayer/matchmaking working in 48 hours. Better singleplayer would be good but (like many others) I ran out of time.
@pmcp Well it's only 10 points per hit as opposed to hundreds for completing a building. But in retrospect I think maybe healing should only have worked on finishing a building.
@robbiehunt I'm no musician :( and I only found out about music generating tools after the contest was over. (haven't tried any yet)
@dukope That confuses me too. :)
@robcozzens It really wasn't hard to add multiplayer and I just wanted to do it.
@FireSlash heheh. I find you learn, with practice.
@Endurion Maybe at a later date. (AI)
@hungyg The ball-on-your-head radius is actually supposed to be the width of a building, not the person, so I tried to make it more dangerous than it might have been.
@FunkyDelPueblo faux-3D? But I'm doing 3D rotation! :) I get what you mean though.
In short, I realize there could be more, and I might develop it further.
