I would have absolutely LOVED this game as a kid, regardless of how beta it is. I spent a good portion of 3rd-5th grade drawing stick figure war scenes and never had a game that let me emulate that quite like this one manages to. I only wish there was much, much more.

This is the pre-alpha-beta-test-beat-version v0.00000001 of the stick death scroller I'm working on.
---------------------------------------
So far it shows off my buggy gameplay and physics of it. The graphics will be completely changed in the future to something else. What the graphics will be I have no idea, because I don't even know the name yet or what the game is gonna be about.

!!!IMPORTANT!!! --> READ THE INSTRUCTIONS
---------------------------------------
Instructions:
LEFT - move left
RIGHT - move right
DOWN - sit
UP - climb ladders
SPACE -jump
D - punch
F - Kick
S - ACTION BUTTON. Moves GREEN BOUNCIES, BLUE SQUARES and the DARK BLUE BRIDGE. Also PULLS LEVERS.
Punching does more damage than kicking, but punching is slow, and kicking is fast and good for pushing people off the edges and stuff. If you kick in the air you will fly faster, if you punch in the air you will fly slower. Have Fun!
Things to avoid: quicksand will suck you in and spit you out at the bottom (keep jumping). If you stand on spikes they will suck your energy out until you're dead. The cannon thing on the top will shoot if you step on the pressure plates. The razor blades cut you till YOU DIE!!!
EDIT: The fact that you can't beat people while standing and simply holding the punch button is there on purpose, otherwise the game would be too easy. That's why if you want to beat the sticks you have to come up close to them and start punching, kicking, airpunching or jump kicking. You have just enough time to accomplish that, and once you start punching the sticks, there's no chance they can fight back, unless of course there's someone behind you and starts punching you.
Also to be on the safe side, turn off the caps lock, and click inside the game window so that you can do stuff.
Nice work
What a fun game you have created here for us to enjoy you bring on some fresh ideas and designs and even showcase it well with this style of game and is refreshing to see people add depth and detail such as you have done here Ok well even though it is sticks it a very welldone one, nice gameplay and controls are ok but could be better, movment was perfect great work, hope to see more soon

Graphics are just stick figures which is the lowest tier. Your combat moves are okay, but including special moves would be a nice touch. Once this demo is finished, it could be much better.
lol
funny but hard
health packs
OMFG AT THE BEGINNING I JUMP KICKED THE BLUE DUDE AND HE STARTED CRYING XD!!!
