Don't Share! by Fumiko

made by Fumiko for LD30 (JAM)

Welcome to Don't Share! - The game were all players are connected but not. You can't see other players, but you'll see their actions. If chests are opened before your eyes and enemies die in sight, you'll know that you're not alone.
We're playing at about 5PM GMT+2 - but the server is always online so grab a friend and try it out.

controls:
WASD Movement
space - jump
leftmouse/leftCtrl - attack
rightmouse/leftAlt - dash

Also full Controller support (tested with X-Box Controller)

specialfeature: you can hum your own tune and pretend its the game soundtrack - that's awesome.

Great moody title, very nice style! I managed to fall to the bottom a lot though, and the multiplayer element would probably work better if there'd be more people playing ;)

We'll be working on the multiplayer and release a new Version in the next few weeks. :) There's still a long way to go when the time was up, so we'll do a second release once ludum dare voting finished. So we can improve stability, add a chat log, real usernames and an ingame chat to actually see who's online.

The gameplay goes a little hard at times but I love the design

This was a rather trippy experience, unfortunate that I couldn't really see the connectivity due to lack of players. Were the models made by your team? I thought the player character has badass design, pat the designer on the back if he is around.

I like the idea of how you implemented the theme into game mechanics. Played quite a bit trying find events in the world that were triggered by other players, but unfortunately I couldn't see any. It was fun exploring and trying to get to different places.

Thanks man - i am glad to hear that you liked my character-designs. :)
Indeed everything seen in the game is handcrafted during the time of ludum dare - we didnt reuse any models or code - although that may have been a good idea. :D

Also some of the onlinefeatures seem to bug right now and we're unsure whether we're in our right to fix codesnippets after submitting our entry.

Character design is great, definitely the first thing that grabbed my attention. Like how much you were able to get in in the short amount of time you had. Was actually fun just walking around the environment and seeing what was around. Also the use of theme was really interesting because it made me aware to look for anything out of the ordinary which worked well for keeping me focused on the environment.

The Weblink is gonna get fixed rather soon (either by getting the build right or removing the weblink) - thanks for hinting it to us.
Hey Franklins Ghost - thanks for the nice words - glad you had a somewhat good time with our game. :)

Hey everyone! We figured out a way to get the webplayer working and we also fixed a few bugs which where disabling some of the online features. But alas now you can enjoy the full content of our game. Have fun. :)

Really impressive graphics and character animations (especially for such a short time!)

Gameplay felt a little wonky and incomplete, sad to see you didn't get to finish the "dungeon crawler" concept you had in mind.

Nice take on the theme and amazing effort for getting a multiplayer game done on such little time, even though I could not see any interactions happen. Well done!
