POOTS!\r\n\r\nPoots is a fast-paced couch competitive game for 2-4 players where you play a color drop on a white grid. The goal of the game is to color as much of the grid as you can with your color before time is up.\r\n\r\nThere are two ways you can color the grid:\r\n\r\nFirst, you can run as quick as you can across the grid, coloring each square as you step on it. If you step on a square that someone else colored, it changes to your color!\r\n\r\nSecond, and the more fun way, is to shoot at your opponents! If you hit them, they will explode and that splash will turn all of the nearby squares to your color!\r\n\r\nIf you explode, you will return a few moments later with a temporary halo of invincibility, so watch out!\r\n\r\nThe game is fun at 2 players, but to really experience the excitement of this game, get 3 or 4 players together and have a blast! Good luck!\r\n\r\nNOTE: This game requires 2-4 game controllers.\r\n\r\nHere are some Vines of the progress from beginning to ship:\r\n\r\nOur game's \"Hello World\" - https:\/\/vine.co\/v\/OrB3Ta5D7IZ\r\nSquare painting test - https:\/\/vine.co\/v\/OrKFe7tKruh\r\nShooting test - https:\/\/vine.co\/v\/OrhmwvDaur5\r\nIn-game animation test - https:\/\/vine.co\/v\/Or5zUgAEPxL\r\nSplat test - https:\/\/vine.co\/v\/Or5jvEi03HV\r\nShort battle test - https:\/\/vine.co\/v\/OrJJJz1rznP\r\nFinal bug bash - https:\/\/vine.co\/v\/OrvwviQ7U2e\r\n\r\nPlease follow the team on Twitter:\r\n\r\nDan Rosas - @thedanrosas\r\nJason Olsan - @lethil\r\nKieran Lampert - @candidklamp","title":"Poots!"}
