Nice looking tile based game.

Unfortunately it's not clear on the controls, WASD moves the player that is 'it' - but how does player two move?
Also when trying to tag a player it does not seem to do anything, you just run straight through.

Still looks great nevertheless.

the movement is really smooth, i like that but player two seems not to be contoalable, which is really sad

Would have liked some SFX or music.

Everything else about the game is slick - controls are tight, multiplayer has no lag. Simple concept, but fun to play.

I'd adjust the flashing rate on the person who's it, it's a bit eye strainy when it's so quick. Maybe a highlight on their colour instead of black-white too.

A good concept and build but the multiplayer needs more work.
