Chomp.io by ghostmaple

[raw]
made by ghostmaple for Ludum Dare 45 (JAM)

Start as an empty mouth and collect teeth to CHOMP your opponents. Watch out because no matter how big you are anyone with teeth can take you out with a bite to your weakpoint - the wind up key that keeps you CHOMPING. For 1 or 2 players.

1P - left/right arrows

2P - A/D keys

Built in 4-5 hours using GMS2 for code+art.

Tips: - You can only chomp the wind-up key on the back of each mouth. - You can only chomp if you have teeth. Just gumming your opponents with nothing in your mouth just isn't going to work. - If you can't find any loose teeth to fill your empty mouth, wait until the bigger mouths fight it out and pick up the scraps! - The smaller you are, the faster you can move and maneuver. Use this to your advantage when your opponent has a big mouth!

I liked the core execution, really neat to see it done in 4-5 Hours so while it's not feature rich, it's still cool to see done. It's a little unclear where the hitboxes are with the wind up teeth, it made it a little difficult to figure out why I would randomly die when I thought I was in the correct attacking position. Great job within the time crunch!

Fun game. Hitbox issues but other good. The progression from small to big character could/should be drawn out. Otherwise you're the biggest character on the map within 15 seconds.

A pretty simple concept. It was a bit difficult to eat anything when small, though after growing a bit I enjoyed being nearly unstoppable.

Would have loved some SFX and music to go with the game. I got big very fast and after that it was super easy :D
