Seat Fighter by LDJam user 309641

[raw]
made by LDJam user 309641 for Ludum Dare 54 (JAM)

The jerk next to you is hogging the armrest... but he doesn't know that you're the legendary SEAT FIGHTER!

Reduce your opponent's timer to 0 by keeping them off the arm rest!

Our game supports single player and two player couch coop!

Ludum Dare only supports 948x533 pixel resolution which our game is not. Also the menu on the WebGL build is buggy, which makes it possible to skip the character selection. Using the mouse does solve this issue. Play on Itch.io to get the best experience!

Player 1 (Single Player) Controls:

W - Push

A - Dodge

S - Block

D - Shove

Player 2 Controls:

I - Push

J - Dodge

K - Block

L - Shove

I love the idea, but the CPU is really bad, just press D again and again and it's easy win

LOL- THis is a great fun game but as Tawghen said, the CPU is way to easy. But great concept.

We fixed a bug that made you not get stunned if you ran out of stamina, this should make the shove less powerful => AI will be less trivial ;)

What a cool idea. :smile: Maybe I've missed it, but some kind of life indicator would be good?

Thanks for the feedback, we do have a life indicator but it may not be clear. The objective of the game is to keep your opponent off the armrest until their timer (health) reduces to 0

wtf did I just play? I liked it. A lot. The graphics were fantastic, the audio amazing, the concept perfection, the title screen draws you right in. I didn't quite understand what I was doing in that seat, or why I was winning or the CPU was winning, but damn was I having a fun time doing it! Loved the little animations, and the in-game UI was great too. Very nicely done team!

This was fun. It was a little hard to figure out which moves were being effective and what wasn't, but once I switched to only shoving, I became a master! Great use of theme.

Ha, ha, ha, such a whimsical and aptly themed idea! For me, it scores a solid 5 out of 5 in those two aspects! The truth is that the game doesn’t disappoint in its other facets either. All that remains is to extend my heartfelt congratulations for this game; it has brought me so much laughter. Thank you immensely for this game!

This was a clever take on the theme - nice! As far as mechanics go, I couldn't really tell what a good strategy should have been. I just sort of pressed buttons until I beat the CPU. Turns out that is my strategy in every fighting game! I appreciated the features you included in this, but perhaps a little more onboarding would have helped me make sense of what was going on.

Very original and funny. The background music boosts the mood. Great job!

This was certainly a bit of a different concept. Lots of fun for sure and the graphics and music were on point. I like the idea of incorporating multi player into a jam game as well. Well done, very cool.

The concept is really unique an fun! The actual fighting was a bit hard to follow, would have been nice with a little introduction/tutorial thing.

Nonetheless nicely made, good job! :seat:💪
