First off, thank you to all who voted for me and @Michelangelo in the previous contest, and congrats to @Syaxamaphone and @ReinlynxPSI for getting second place!

Anywho, you've probably been told before that controls are important. While I think it's good that your controls should be as tight as possible, I also think that creativity is important to games -- yet we strangely don't see a lot of creativity in control schemes for fan games all that much. So, in the spirit of Nintendo always finding new ways for people to play games, I'd like to declare the theme of this next contest as:

QWERKY Controls

Get it? ...Y'know, it's like QWERTY and quirky in one word...? Eh, anywho, the main goal of this contest is to get you exploring new and interesting control schemes that games can use.

Here are the rules:
  • Your game can be about any subject. It doesn't have to be restricted to Mario or a Nintendo IP.
  • Get creative! While I won't disqualify you over it, having your controls be a standard layout (such as "WASD and the mouse" or "arrow keys, Z, and X") won't score you a lot of creativity points.
  • You've got 4 weeks to make whatever comes to mind -- the deadline is May 18th, 2018, 11:59 pm EST.
If you aren't getting a lot of ideas off the top of your head, look at some of the games Bennett Foddy has made -- he's made plenty of weird control schemes for games over the years, most notably QWOP and Getting Over It. Good luck to all! Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

Ooh, this is a cool theme. I'm interested in seeing what kind of wacky control schemes people will come up with for their games.

Quick reminder the deadline is less than 2 weeks away. If you're considering entering this contest but haven't started, now would be a good time to do so!

Progress continues!



Programmed Blooper movement and a tail whip for the Cheep Cheep. Happy with how easily this is coming along.

My final entry:

Download

You're a Cheep Cheep, just trying to survive and collect shiny things in the deep!

Left click to swim, middle click to pause and right click to tail whip your foes. Updated version after the competition will probably add some more features, but I'm running out of time to work on this for now.
