The Bridges level in action

Animies

We tried making a 2p hotseat game, where turns are taken in secret and the actions are resolved in simultaneously, with both players watching.

The game can be played using only the mouse, click the play area to move your character and use the UI buttons to perform attack actions.
Keyboard controls are also available: WASD to move and M for Spin attack, B for bash Attack.

The players have 5 stamina per turn, actions have different stamina cost:
  • Move: 1 stamina
  • Bash: 2 stamina, deals 2 points of damage to the tile directly in front of the character
  • Spin: 2 stamina, deals 1 point of damage to all tiles surrounding the character

Be aware that damage is only dealt during the Resolve phase, you need to guestimate where your opponent will be in order to hit them and win the game, or you could betray their trust and sneakily look over their shoulder while they are taking their turn, you TRAITOR!

We have used pre-made assets for VFX, Level and Characters:
Level and Player art: scrabling, 32 x 32 Pixel Isometric Tiles; Link: https://scrabling.itch.io/pixel-isometric-tiles

VFX Sprites: BDragon1727, Effect and FX Pixel Part 12; Link: https://bdragon1727.itch.io/effect-and-fx-pixel-part-12?fbclid=IwY2xjawFaAS5leHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHZpi-fy0s_I8kfbrr9tFCjj2vnw33PVhR7zI7jZpEdchP-mcJ2mc1cdMTQ_aem_5faJ6aVWKp4L-NbCrOk35A

Known issues: (Fixed in the repo, consider the ZIP build with these issues for pyweek judging)

Clicking anywhere except on a button during level-select will crash the game, please don't. (Any mouse button)

We originally planned for players taking turns in being the first player of each round, for equal treason opportunity, however player 1 is constantly getting the short end of the stick.

When the last song in the music list stops playing the game will crash, if you are unlucky (DC 5 - 1d20) that will happen 3:32 minutes after selecting a level.
