Stack Attack - JamGame

March 2026 libGDX 7 Day Game Jam Entry

Theme: That's a weapon?

*Not Finished*  :-(

*Update*
I added very basic support for controllers for both players, so it's easier to play.

Sadly, I would not consider this a  finished jam game. This week was pretty busy.
So this is more of a... you can see what I was "attempting" prototype... for this jam

The idea was to have a 2 player game. Where you play as burgers launching patties at each other to knock each other off screen. You collect patties to increase your burger stack and it was supposed to make you heavier.. affecting jumps and knockback... powerups, etc.. But none of that was really implemented. Couldn't even shoehorn in the easter egg! Bah!

There is no end game state or winner. The game just continues on. And each player death results in a point for the other player. 

You can control both players from the keyboard. Or a controller for each player (suggested)
If you have 2 controllers connected they will be auto assigned to player 1 and 2.
If only one controller is connected it will be assigned to player one and the second player must use the arrow key setup on the keyboard.

Default Keyboard Controls are:
Player 1:
Space to Jump
A to move Left
D to move Right
Left shift to Fire

Player 2:
Up to Jump
Left Arrow move Left
Right Arrow move Right
Right Ctrl to Fire

Controller defaults are X to shoot A to jump. (assuming xbox style controller)
