made by Don Fouts for LD 42 (JAM)

Try to knock your opponent out of the arena before you both grow so large you no longer fit in the arena!

Use WASD to Move Around, The character will look at the Mouse Cursor. To dash, use the SPACE bar in addition to one of the movement keys. Attack your opponent by using Left Mouse Button and Right Mouse Button. Alternating these attacks will keep your attacks strong! Bowls of rice will spawn around the arena, running over them will make your attacks more powerful. While you increase in power you’ll also increase in size.

A bit simplistic but an interesting take on the theme. I would have liked an indicator as to when I'm allowed to move at the start of the round. Cool graphics. Good job.

Really fun game but if you are bad, like me, you can eat many rice and if you are really big, you can't fall.

Really like the graphics! Became kind of disoriented for the first couple of playthroughs (Mario 64 syndrome). What did you use to make this?

Overall nice concept. Getting the first growth booster pretty much decides the outcome of the match for me.

This was fun! I landed on the panhandle once. I never won the game, the blue onion always got the rice first, I struggled to move in the direction I wanted. Beautiful scenery and funny movement :)

Very fun entry! Loved the 1-2 Rize combo to send enemy sumo far away into the skies, hilarious! :yum:

Some constructive feedback:

It would have also been nice adding some anticipation fx to the rize appearance, and maybe shorter duration but higher efficiency ( I can beat AI on rice easily ).

A stamina bar would have added a lot of depth to the game, and fixed the 1-2 slap spamming (even when the enemy is on rice it was easy for me to rocketlaunch him into the sky).

It was pretty nice little game! Congratz! :)

Love the animations and art. Would be cool to have a way to fight other players. Definitely a unique take on the theme

Great take on the theme! It could use a bit more gameplay variety and require a bit more strategy — as it is it feels highly random. But high marks for the idea.

Graphics was damn awesome but the AI looks not so well. It stands in one place and just move towards the player. AI could be better than that.Audio was also good. I specially like the arena place, top of the mountain. UI was also great.
Overall, it is a good submission. Keep it up and make some more great graphical games like this.

Lovely. Graphics are quite impressive! I will say, the gameplay does feel like it snowballs quite a bit — get the first rice, push them into the edge, odds are you're closer to the next rice than they are. Also, it got hard to see where I was at some points. Perhaps the camera could be at a higher angle?

A nice little game but you sould have add a option to turn the music off it was very repetetive.

The game bugged after my first playthrough, and I didn't seem to hit the other guy or hold my ground anymore. I restarted and everything worked fine again. The game is really professional, well polished for a game jam. Great job!
