Jazzy Beats

Created for Ludum Dare 40

Reach the peak of idol stardom! Your rival is sending up her fans to beat you up push you out of the industry. What can you do? Well, punch them so hard they become your fans.

Play as Jazzchan, the idol whose music mesmerizes the masses, and compete against Bluessom in an idol fight of which the world has never heard before! Defend yourself and turn Bluessom’s fans against her with the power of your music (and fists). She’ll do the same, so keep going until one of you goes down. The more fans you have, the worse it’ll be for your rival!

But just don’t beat up each other directly, okay? That’s unprofessional.

• Combo-additive fighting mechanics. Punch, kick and play jazz to convert your enemy’s fans into yours!
• You can’t fight your rival directly. But don’t worry. Your fans will do the heavy lifting!
• Your fans are not very loyal though. Be prepared to beat some sense into them again when your rival takes them back.
• How far can you get that combo counter?

• Play with your keyboard or with a controller. The following mapping applies to Xbox controllers, although most controllers are supported!
