Very mad game. Literally, the weapons are unconventional XD

I didn't feel like I had much control of my character, it seemed random if I would win or not. But the weapons are unconventional all right.

Neat entry - a little easy, but a really fun and simple concept!

Nice looking game and fun idea. All I had to do was to keep my right arrow down and I won in less than 5 mins, so couple of extra mechanics would have been nice...

thoughts:
- only found out you're the one on the left after some experimenting...
- fits the theme not only in a literal sense, but the weapon /mechanics/ are also unconventional
- haha, you steal(?) their weapon after you've beaten them, nice touch

The grahpics and feeling are nice, perhaps this could evolve into a 1vs1 game with some more work.

Controlling the character seemed kind of random and unrewarding, I won every fight just keeping my right arrow down :/

I won the game by just holding right. Is that intended?

Haha, that's actually fun and has perfect theme realization.

funny game and nice graphics, but can be beaten by just holding the right arrow key, maybe adding movement keys would add more depth to the gameplay

Nice idea and great graphics. Could use some music and holding left arrow seems to always just make you lose.

pretty good! the different weapons were funny. i like that you take the enemys weapon when you kill them, it gives a sense of progression. you can win pretty easily by holding right arrow tho

This is a funny little game. Think if you added a "jump" button to the controls, you might get a little more diverse gameplay out of it. I also think it would make for a fun multiplayer "micro-game", especially with the simplified controls. Good job!

Nice, I liked the graphics and the general feel of the game. I found it was pretty easy to just hold right to win, but otherwise it was pretty good.

Nice entry, reminded me of the game 'knock ya block off' a little. Would have been nice to see when and where exactly my hits took place.

Well done
