Yeah, that's a problem with LD I guess, rating is generally a lonely process, which is why I threw in single player. Game was originally designed to be MP.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>If you do end up trying it, might be worth trying Coop, by letting Player 2 win Battle mode and then choosing Onslaught."},{"author_name":"hissssssssss","author_uid":"18086","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 11:58am","epoch":1418125980,"text":"Tackling a multiplayer game in a game jam is no joke.

Only tried SP. Very ambitious doing a MP game in a jam! Good job :)"},{"author_name":"elvaq","author_uid":"36638","time":"Dec 10, 2014 @ 5:40am","epoch":1418189700,"text":"Pretty nifty concept with the dual stick! Again it's hard to judge MP but I had fun just coming to grips with the controls.

The music system sounds pretty cool and the 'produced' music felt smooth and natural. \r<br\/>\r<br\/>And of course there's the very nice implementation of the screen wrapping (the way it doesn't just teleport you, but seems to 'cut' the character in two) which is also an interesting use of the theme (rather than 'just' playing on a Sony screen ingame).\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Overall, another cool entry in the Rude Bear series and I had fun, thanks!"},{"author_name":"VDZ","author_uid":"7284","time":"Dec 12, 2014 @ 9:14pm","epoch":1418418540,"text":"I think the inclusion of single-player likely has a detrimental effect on your ratings, as the singleplayer isn't very interesting while this seems like the kind of game that could be a lot of fun in multiplayer...but not having anyone to play it with nor Xbox controllers, I'm rating it having only played the singleplayer, and I expect many others will do the same.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>For singleplayer, I thought Onslaught wasn't very fun, being just dodging balls with the option to slap them away with the somewhat awkward slapping controls (you have to actually slap to get them away instead of just pushing them, which is fun in theory but just awkward in practice). (It must be noted that I'm also not very fond of twin stick shooters, so maybe it just isn't my kind of game.)\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Battle mode is something that would appeal to me a lot more...except the enemy literally doesn't do anything in singleplayer. I'm very sure I'd have a lot more fun with this game in multiplayer."},{"author_name":"gebirgsbaerbel","author_uid":"6187","time":"Dec 14, 2014 @ 9:52pm","epoch":1418593620,"text":"The game looks totally cool.

What more could you want?\r\n\r\nThis is the 8th game in the Rude Bear series (and 7th in the core Ludum Dare series).\r\n\r\nCode etc. by Alex Rose @Vorpal_Games\r\nArt by Gaby In-Wonderland @GabysWonderland\r\nMusic and music system by Atmospherium @Atmospherium\r\nSFX by Christopher White\r\n\r\nControls:\r\nBEST PLAYED WITH A 360 CONTROLLER. LIKE.. NOT EVEN WORTH TRYING IF YOU DON'T HAVE ONE. ALSO BEST PLAYED WITH FRIENDS, LOL LIKE YOU HAVE THEM.\r\n\r\nLeft stick = Fly.\r\nRight stick = Slap.\r\nA = Choose option\/return to menu (if game is over).\r\nB = Return to menu.\r\n\r\nOn keyboard it's the same stuff but with WASD and directional keys for player 1, and for player 2 it's IJKL and the numpad 8456. Think of it a bit of a bonding Fingle-esque experience, hands over each other.\r\n\r\nSpace = Forwards.\r\nEsc = Menu.\r\n\r\n<--- BONUS --->\r\nIf you play multiplayer and let the Wizard win a round, you can play Onslaught 2 coop. Enjoy.\r\n\r\n\r\nIf you use AZERTY, it's \/actually supported\/!\r\n\r\nThe music system is very clever and by Atmospherium. It on the fly figures out the situation and changes the music to match it. So that's cool. Also, the light on the background changes to match the TV's glow.\r\n\r\nAaaand, this is the prequel to Rude Bear Radio.\r\n\r\nWe actually made 4 games this weekend, 3 of them sucked though. This one took half of Sunday and all of Monday, about 29 hours in total.","title":"Rude Bear Ride"}
