I generally like the idea but this is so unpolished. Graphic is bad - really bad. Pure copy paste no even trying for everything to be coherent. Ships fly too fast to be controlled. Im not sure if picking "wsad" movement mechanics is a great idea. There is no way too shoot at your opponent. Only 2 player mode what is a terrible idea.

Chaos is a fast paced 2 player game where players try to collect more orbs than their opponent. Sounds simple, but players can disrupt their opponents movement speed and even reverse their controls!
The game modes in Chaos can be mixed and matched however you like!
I understand that some may find it difficult to see whats going on on particular backgrounds, so I included both an all white and all black background which hopefully will be able to accommodate most players

Update #1: In response to a comment I would like to say why I chose this play style.
-
1) I wanted to make a multi-player game where to people could comfortably use the same keyboard to play.
-
2) From my experience having 4 hands on one keyboard is a crowded situation.
-
3) Since each player can only use one hand, shooting would feel strange, or be difficult.
-
4) The solution was to affect your opponents movement rather than health, all this requires is that you collect the appropriate power-ups while playing.

Yeah the graphics are cheap, but I'm no artist, it's what I could produce with gimp and free assets from around the net.
Maybe the ships do fly too fast, but I've never tested this game with an audience as big as newgrounds, let's see what others say about the speed.
Yep! No way to shoot your opponent. I'll update the description of the game and explain why.
Thanks for your comment!
