While the jam is still going on and [our game is doing fine](https:\/\/ldjam.com\/events\/ludum-dare\/42\/ld42-leggo), I'd like to take this opportunity to invite y'all to a most promising update for a project that originated in this very event, 2 years ago.\n\nTwo years ago, our team [**Whales and Games**](https:\/\/whalesandgames.com\/) (unrelated to my team on this jam) made a *Ludum Dare 36* entry game, **Colossorama**. A game with the idea of having multiple weapons, swap them constantly, and adapting to different loadouts. In its original iteration, it barely lived up to that expectation.

Not only does it reconstruct mechanics and fixes bugs, but is also a major visual and gameplay overhaul, rebalancing, and, of course, weapons, weaponized weapons making it the largest weapon-fest it\u2019s ever been! Over 70 last time we checked. Swords, Axes, Items, Cannonballs, Status effects, Dogs, and more!\n\n[![Playtesting22-08-FB.png](\/\/\/raw\/519\/z\/1a94c.png)](https:\/\/whalesandgames.com\/playtesting\/)\n\nSince we want to do out original vision justice, we\u2019re looking for people interested in a **#playtesting** of sorts, in order to get more feedback before we finish the final product with a few extra surprises on it.
