The Extravagant Bill by Bragou

[raw]
made by Bragou for LD 44 (JAM)

The Extravagant Bill is a figure head contest between two players. You shall win if you have the most expensive hat by the end of the timer. But will they be stable enough to support all this fancy ?!

Great concept and such beautiful art! The difference in controls between the players feels a little bit unfair. But anyway it's a great game overall.

An amazing game with stunning visuals! I only played by myself but it was still cool to see how the game works. I think moving with the arrows is a bit unfair for the second player as it is way harder though. Great!

This game was *almost* legendary. The graphics, sound and style were all awesome. A few issues existed though. The multiplayer aspect almost certainly wouldn't have worked (I didn't try, sorry). The player using keyboard controls was at a HUGE disadvantage, since the controls were so slow and inaccurate. This would kill any form of multiplayer competition. The keyboard player also couldn't see what they were holding, as the item often rendered behind the hand.

Awesome style though. The game idea was simple, and certainly would have potential. Maybe if both were keyboard control, it could be better balanced? Anyways, thanks for the game, cheers!

Very nice art & an fun little game. Like @ayama said it should be more fair controls, like wasd vs keys or something.

Great use of the theme and amazing art style! Reminds me of Tricky Tower but with a twist, good job!

This game looks beautiful, the sound is great - I would genuinely pay for this if it were a mobile game. Maybe against an AI opponent?

It's fun to make a 250 dollar bill. Her life is now currency. :)

I'm not really sure if it's in the theme, but btw the game works great, it's fun to play, i'm glad to see a good multiplayer game here and graphics are nice. Just take care to the mouse, it easily go out of the window and then block the game. I bet the one who plays with the keyboard won't win at the same rate than the first player.

Really great music and graphics. I also had the problem with the mouse going out. I miss more multiplayer games in LD! Keep up the good work.

I didn't have another person to play with but it was fun enough trying to make the most expensive hat. Some very fitting and great art. I also had an issue with the mouse going outside the playfield which made it a bit trickier to play.

I had no friend to play this with :(
But i think it's a cool take on the theme.
Played on browser and had some issues with the mouse where the hand wasn't where my mouse actually was but i managed to play anyway.

I managed to stuck something between my hat and the middle shelf so i could load y had as much as i wanted without taking care of balance

This is a cool idea and the music was cool as well.
