stick game (itch) (ty)

warning, this crashes firefox and hangs in safari. it works in chrome, though. the downloadable builds also work better.

a two player vibing/fighting game where you play as a stick stuck in a box.

you need controllers to play this game, two of them. it works with ps4 controllers, and may work with others.

made in a week for the class "prototype studio" at the nyu game center. the theme was "three constraints". the constraints were "42.0", "analog sticks", and an animation that looks a lot like this game.

rules
once you start moving your stick, you have to keep moving your stick. don't allow the left stick to return to neutral. that is against the rules.

controls
- stick (left): move
- stick (right): flick
- stick (right, press): join
- ctrl+r: reset

todo (maybe one day)
- tuning
- juice
- iframes, hitboxes
- one strong hit
- color asymmetry
- ui (& fix scaling)
- smooth animations
