CHAIR Champions Gameplay

Hey πŸ‘‹ 

Thx for trying out CHAIR Champions πŸ™‚πŸ™Œ

Did you like it? Did you also try the new race vs AI mode?

I really enjoyed this game, it's fun.

Oh, thank you very much ☺️

I'm currently close to releasing the next update with 6, instead of 4 chair races, translations to German & French and a new game mode for the Xmas season.

It may be released within the next 2 weeks.

Stay tuned πŸ‘

It's a great game, I've thoroughly enjoyed trying to achieve the best time on each map. Give it a play!

Fun casual racing game! Great sprite work, controls felt pretty tight

(+1)

Thanks for playing! πŸ™‚

I hope you enjoyed it.

I'm currently working on a bigger content update with more different chairs, a new track and many more changes and improvements!

Great game! Fun to play with two people.

Thanks for playing! πŸ‘

I'm happy that you like it!

If you'll come again today evening, you'll probably find the new Easter Edition update here 🐰πŸ₯šπŸ˜Š

XDDDDDDDDD

Seems like someone had fun with this game πŸ˜‰

Fun 2D game. Surprisingly addicting. I think I'm going to need new arrow keys. The music was very well done. The needing to pick up items was intuitive. I liked that I could get out of my chair and pick my own. Lots of characters to choose from. It's a fun little game.

Thank you very much! :-)

New things to come soon: New track, new character & race vs. AI opponents! Stay tuned!

Hello, that was very very fun to play!

2 ideas:

- Write in the game that you can use gamepads and not only keyboard. I'm a bad boy and I didn't read the description (... and I dare complain that my pupils don't read the instructions...) before starting and discovered the possibility by myself after 3 runs. Particularly for people who want to have fun with a friend but don't have a QWERTY keybord (many European countries), that may be an instant drop as the WAED is an impossible combination.

- in the selection screen put the players above the circuit as one select them first. I was a bit confused.

Fun and addictive  game! My marvins' home 1 lap PB is   36.14

very nice! Thank you!

Erm... May I ask you to do another run with the current version? I've added power ups that can make you faster! πŸ˜‰πŸ™

That would be awesome!

Great game, easy and fun to play

Great game! Definitely the most polished of the jam!

Thx a lot! πŸ™

And sorry for the messed up times on the finish screen 🏁πŸ₯²

This will be fixed first πŸ˜‰
