The \"Puck Off\" is particularly enjoyable. I'm impressed at the setup and level of polish. Well done!

Really liked the concept, think it'd be really fun multiplayer. Its got hints of subbuteo, curling and hockey (and air hockey!). I think if mastered some dirty little combo moves could be set up. passing was quite hard since all players moved simultaneously, and blocking other players felt less important since it was turn based and you knew they werent going to get in your way! Really fun and original idea, looking forward to the online experience!\n","likes":0,"format":"md"}],"format":"md","images":["ld41\/76532-078f23de9354995928fc2593ec9ee2d0.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/github.com\/Mattykins\/ld41","text":"Github"},{"url":"https:\/\/mattykins.com\/game\/puck-off","text":"HTML5 (web)"},{"url":"https:\/\/www.newgrounds.com\/portal\/view\/710099","text":"HTML5 (web)"},{"url":"https:\/\/mattykins.itch.io\/puck-off","text":"HTML5 (web)"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"52291","g_author":"1019696","g_event":"LD41","g_eventkey":"72","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"239452","g_title":"Puck Off","g_status":"USEAR3","g_place":"23","g_commentcount":"21","g_site2_node_id":"76532","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"76532","n_urlkey":"239452","n_parent":"73256","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/41\/puck-off","n_slug":"puck-off","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"compo","n_author":"19696","n_created":"1523381749","n_modified":"1524442904","n_version":"247087","n_status":"COMMIT"},"node":{"id":76532,"parent":73256,"superparent":9,"author":19696,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"compo","published":"2018-04-23T00:21:44Z","created":"2018-04-10T17:35:49Z","modified":"2018-04-23T00:21:44Z","version":247087,"slug":"puck-off","name":"Puck Off","body":"A turn based ice hockey game made for Ludum Dare 41.
