Cloud Conquerors by ViKingGames

Cloud Conquerors is a versus game for 2-4 players. Players fight for control over 9 sectors of a small world. On your turn, you select a sector you'd like to conquer (if nobody has already conquered it) for points, or destroy (if it has already been conquered) to take away someone else's points. Each sector you control gives you one point, and owning three-in-a-row à la Tic-Tac-Toe provides two more points, adding strategy to what sectors you select. Combat for sectors takes place in a frantic, last-man-standing platforming game where double-jumps provide temporary platforms and the ground is disappearing beneath you. The game ends when no more sectors are available to be conquered, and the player with the most points wins.

Can't vote fairly, as I can only test alone. The entry is very polished, with control mapping, music, sfx and all. Add an AI and you've got a real good game. Maybe go for the full checkerboard :)
It may seem far fetched, but I can see some kind of tournament play with a combination of fighting game and sector conquering :).
Very polished entry, nice graphics, sound and speacially gameplay. For the little gameplay stuff you make there is a lot to enjoy.
I enjoyed the level of detail you made here, theres just so much fun when playgin with more people. Good entry, congratulations!
The tic tac toe idea is a great way to make the fighting even more intense! It might be a little long though, because you loose often when you try to conquer a teritory, and then you can destroy. I have only played it with 2 players, but I suppose with more it's almost impossible to conquer a teritory because everyone wants to kill you, no? I would say maybe give a little advantage somehow could help?
The fighting in itself is very polished, and I haven't found any frustrating bug. The cloud plateforms is a nice idea, and complexifies the fighting without having too many controls.
Anyway, good job! :)
hoping you reach 20+ ratings :octopus:
