Stonefall
A downloadable game for Windows
While I understand the reasons why Towerfall's devs did not want to go online multiplayer with their original, I couldn't help but think how it could feel like if done with proper deterministic predict/rollback.
This is the result of a few days work on the gameplay feel, and some playtests with friends.
Disclaimer: As a homeage to an existing game, this prototype won't see further development but is available here for anybody to test what is possible.

Use speed, jumps, wall-jumps, double-jumps and throwing rocks to beat your opponents. Oh, it's team based (check your color) and you can see the replays:
Left/Right: Arrows or AD
Jump: Space
Throw Rock: Left Ctrl
Does have XBox controller support (did not try other gamepads, they may also work).
This was used by me as a testbed for the 2D platformer character controller base code I was writing for Photon Quantum, which can now also be checked with the official Blueless 2D Shooter sample.
