Man's Best Friend
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
"Man's Best Friend"
In a world in which pets are the key elements of any honor-based battle; where conflicts are solved through eternal pet-trhowing battles.
Battle your bros through an online, action-packed, not-at-all-glitchy multiplayer game, with random pets, generated clothes and beards.
Controls
- Left/Right arrows to movement.
- 'X' to jump normally or from walls(when forced - e.g. by movement - to one).
- 'C' to throw and pick up pets.
When thrown, pets will kill a player(human) on hit. The player will then respawn at one of a few spawn points
> What was to be implemented, among some other things, was the petting of the pet, protection and feeding of cakes to the pet - those cakes being the cause of all violence in the game.
Disclaimer:
Most members of the team didn't sleep once during the jam and survived only using coffee and dry bread.
This was the first - almost ever - time using online systems and basically the very first time using TCP.
All elements of the game were coded completely from scratch in Lua using Love2D.
