Gameplay
UI and audio

changedHow It Works?Each match pits two teams (2v2, 3v3, or 4v4) against each other in a slap-happy battle in the ring. Players spawn from opposite corners – red and blue – and as soon as the timer starts, it’s game on! Every successful slap on an opponent stuns them and earns your team a point. Work together, protect your teammates, and land those slaps!

addedGame Mechanics OverviewStun Points: Each slap stuns your opponent and adds +1 to your team’s score.

changedPower-Ups & Mystery BoxesLook out for mystery boxes that spawn around the arena. Each box gives unique boosts, from Belly Dash (stuns everyone in your way) to Steel Butt (immunity to stuns). But be careful – some moves can backfire, like stunning your own teammates and accidentally scoring for the other team!

addedPower-Ups & Mystery BoxesFreeze: Frozen players can still be slapped, but they won’t get stunned, adding a twist to your team’s strategy.

changedScoreboard & Sudden DeathOur Slap Arena scoreboard tracks every slap and point! The UI shows the score, timer, and which team’s leading. If the timer ends in a tie, the sudden death rule kicks in: the next slap to stun an opponent wins the game!

We’re pumped to introduce Slap Arena, a chaotic, slap-filled mode where every hit counts in a no-holds-barred showdown! Whether you’re here to slap your rivals senseless or strategize for that perfect knockout, this mode is packed with action for all!

What’s the Goal?

Simple: stun and score! Rack up points by landing slaps on the opposing team. Every stun equals a point, and the team with the most points when the timer ends takes the win. But if it’s a tie, brace yourself for a sudden-death!

How It Works?

Each match pits two teams (2v2, 3v3, or 4v4) against each other in a slap-happy battle in the ring. Players spawn from opposite corners – red and blue – and as soon as the timer starts, it’s game on! Every successful slap on an opponent stuns them and earns your team a point. Work together, protect your teammates, and land those slaps!

Game Mechanics Overview

Teams: 2v2, 3v3, or 4v4 – assemble your squad and enter the ring!

Controls: Move with “WASD,” jump with “Space,” and slap with “Mouse Left.” Team up, coordinate, and get ready to rack up the points! But of course use of a gamepad is encouraged.

Stun Points: Each slap stuns your opponent and adds +1 to your team’s score.

Power-Ups & Mystery Boxes

Look out for mystery boxes that spawn around the arena. Each box gives unique boosts, from Belly Dash (stuns everyone in your way) to Steel Butt (immunity to stuns). But be careful – some moves can backfire, like stunning your own teammates and accidentally scoring for the other team!

Belly Dash: Stunning everyone, friend or foe – just make sure to aim right, or you’ll give the other team points!

Steel Butt: Grants immunity from slaps. Use it to get in close and mess with the opponents without getting stunned!

Freeze: Frozen players can still be slapped, but they won’t get stunned, adding a twist to your team’s strategy.

Scoreboard & Sudden Death

Our Slap Arena scoreboard tracks every slap and point! The UI shows the score, timer, and which team’s leading. If the timer ends in a tie, the sudden death rule kicks in: the next slap to stun an opponent wins the game!

So gather your team, aim those slaps, and step into the Slap Arena! We can’t wait to see which team will dominate the ring and claim victory.

Until next time, happy slapping!
