I wasn’t able to play with anyone but it seems like a very fun game to play with someone else, chaotic in a fun way. I think I would prefer if a kill reset the world state, so projectiles wouldn’t linger into the subsequent rounds or you wouldn’t be stuck in an attack for a few seconds, but otherwise well done!
Chaotic and fun game! And also really funny! :-)
That's great. I had to kidnap a friend to try it and we had fun! Sometime it's a little hard to see who won. Maybe a little 'finisher' animation would have been nice. But great idea and execution!
I wish I could play to this game with someone D= Great work!
I wish I had someone to play with, this looks like I could be really fun! The randomized moveset is a great idea that would surely make for lots of chaotic matches. Animations surprised me with how fluid they were. Nice nice work!
Great game!! had a lot of fun.
Would recommend having a lesser number of keys as it is pretty confusing and messy(*fun). Enjoyed the CLAMSEKAI and hoping to have a lot more fun with friends.
Kudos!!

Coudn't play with a friend, but I could definitely see the value here! The animations are amazing and gameplay feels super fun. Very well done.
coherent aesthetics, fun game, and that Saiyan is the cherry on top!
haha this game is so fun but it needs two players but i liked that some keys make the player explodes and i have to try my luck :D good job
make sure to try my souls like game /jam/brackeys-12/rate/2973847 
Oh wow this game is SO COOL!!! :O
I love what you did with the theme, and the title, really original and stands out!
The gameplay, although it requires a friend to be there, is reeally interesting and fun! The animations are all well done and fun and the randomization of moves each round makes for very chaotic battles (and limits move spamming, as the self destruct move exists).
As for all the rest, LOVED the animations that play every 10 kills! they are incredibly funny, laughed every time (considered I watched those anime or seen the memes).
I don't know if you plan on continuing this, but I really hope to see this evolve! I would love a singleplayer mode with you VS ai, or even a online multiplayer mode! It would be absolutely sick and I would play it for hours! :D
This is a really fun take on the theme! I love the range of abilities and their animations. Great work!
