LudumData

AvsL by dos

[raw]
made by dos for LD34 (COMPO)
A game for two players, where all's fair.

Groundmole Antonio wants to grow so high that he can take over the world!
Gardener Louis notices the danger and tries to thwart the evil groundmole plans!

Antonio grows with A button.
Louis takes Antonio back to ground with L button.

In order to win, it is recommended to do whatever it takes to keep the second player away from the keyboard - just keep it legal! :)

Great use of the 2 button theme!

I could be more challenging if it was about smashing the button instead of holding it down.

@Oye Beto: Well, as soon as the other player pushes his/her button, holding it down doesn't have any effect anymore, does it?

Nevermind, just tried it on another OS. My key repeat settings made it harder... Changed it as a bugfix (hope it's fine).

A simple concept well executed. We had a ton of laughs (no one was injured, I promise!)

Great submission. My brother could not win against me. I have machine gun fingers :)

Stupid and earblasting at the start, yet it's funny and it now makes me hate myself (since I'm only one player, I had to play as both of them). ;)

For 6 hours, it's not that bad! However, I lose everytime! My right hand, you know, too well trained versus the left one :/

By the way, I noticed you played my game. I just released the L枚ve2D version (The web one can crash on some navigators). Enjoy it!

silly as can be. I had to play by myself but tried out both possibilities and liked the silly use of sound.

Very funny!
Really like the graphics, SFX and music. Could not test the gameplay with someone else, but I'm sure thinks will get broken (computer, pots, bones) when playing this game ;)
Well done!

This was not what we expected, and it was a great surprise. It's rare I play a "physical" video game and have so much fun. We really think you should put this on a mobile device, and set it up at a show/gallery/sidewalk whatever and provide some Gladiator jousting sticks. Imagine DDR mats for each player, and you have to jump....that would be awesome. Great job. good game.
