Punch A Bunch

Amazing Game Cant wait for the full game

maybe it's just me but my controller doesn't work

Cool👍

what are the minimum specs for this game to run it smooth

I can't get it to download :(

Level 1 I won in just under 3 minutes... YAY. Level 2 I lost in under 10 seconds :(

Been playing for about a week now. Started with a Ps4 controller but I discovered that you can play using WSAD for movement, Space-bar for dodge, Left MB for Punch, Right MB for blocking, and basically moving the mouse to sway.  This is the result xd.

The controls are really hard but just like other games, you can get good with it by just playing the game. That said, I still have trouble throwing uppercuts.

 I grew up playing boxing games like the Fight Night series that had both motion-input and simpler punch buttons (see image below). 

What I'm trying to say is, I think it's fine to have both types of controls so that the game would be more beginner-friendly. And that choosing to practice and eventually master the motion-input controls would mean that you would have more offensive options unlike those who only play using the simple buttons.

That is pretty much it. Thanks for a great demo! 
Can't wait for the STEAM release.

For a demo...well it's pretty good. I honestly can't wait for the final version of the game to be released. It is hard, but it's interesting too. In the meantime of your match you start to learn your opponents strategy and moves and then make your own plan on when to hit and how to hit. The easy mode is really simple, you throw some jabs and some wide swings and you're good to go. But for the intermediate and hard mode it's really different, you have to be an out-fighter for both modes. In the intermediate mode you just tire the opponent with blocks and then hit him with some swings(they have to be clean hits, otherwise the opponent is going to take small damage). Now for the hard mode, it's pretty much the same as for the intermediate, the advantage is that he tires out more quickly, but the problem is that he has a special attack. Of course, you can neutralize that special attack with some clean hits most of the time, but you have to be careful too so you won't get hit if you don't succeed in neutralizing the special attack. The potential this game has from all points of views is enormous. Knowing that just ONE developer works on this game gives me the chills. The things I would like to see in the future are some basic things from boxing, like footwork for exemple(they don't need to be complicated footwork like in real boxing), and the uppercut would be a great attack to have by neutralizing the opponents block and hitting him at the same time with a lot of power with this attack, but the disadvantage you would have is the lack of stamina. Can't wait for future updates on this game and new demo's to play until the full version releases.

bruh i get knocked out in the first 10 seconds by pointy this game is stupid hard

create widget . add putons like low / med / epic and just create node execute console comand and write like sg.shadowquality 0.1.2.3 etc.

I would prefer if advanced controls use A&B instead of LB&RB to hit.

Also it's really hard to aim with hits, I found that for me aiming is a lot bigger problem than "complicated" controls.  Like even in the practice I can't figure out how to hit dummy right in the middle of it's face/body. Not to mention during normal fight. 

Hey Ponty, I have played this game for a couple of hours, and I think this game is loads of fun and has a lot of potential. there's a couple of things that I would like to point out that I found could be changed or improved.

to start off I think that the new control scheme is a lot better but for some reason the leaning mechanic is still kind of weird for me (maybe I just need more practice with it, but I thought I should still point it out just in case someone else feels the same way). I feel like being able to see the Boss' stamina bar could be a very good addition so that the player has an idea on how close the boss is to running out of stamina.  I really think that this game needs some sort of tutorial that teaches you the mechanics of the game (I don't think I would've been able to learn how to throw punches if it wasn't for your YouTube videos on this game) as well as a better practice dummy (maybe something like street fighter were you can tell the dummy to block a certain way or something). I also think the game might need some optimization, my graphics card was running at 100% the whole time (even in the title screen) and I have a 1070.  

Some Bugs:

I noticed that when you are stunned you can still dash (idk if this is intended but I assume not since the bosses didn't do it)

when paused your stamina regenerates.

Overall, I rate the game a 7/10 in its current state. I think this game is amazing and I am excited for when it is officially released 

What requirements are need to play the game,my pc is old,if i not have the requirements you can create a low graphic version for not make my pc explode plis?

ponty, would you please add an uncooked version

Someone beat me

The blocking sound is good, I think that the punch sounds are the real problem, they don't feel satisfying enough, I could barely distinguish them from the blocking. What really helped was the shield, super clever decision. 

Would be cool if you could stun the enemy for half a second or less when you block his attacks, something like a parry system, just to pace the game. I get confused easily when we're hitting each other. 

And keep the option with the old controls, personally I think the old ones are easier to use.

Just played the game again after the update. I like the new controls better, however they are still uncomfortable for me. I'm using a Xbox series controller and punching and shielding with RB & LB instead of RT & LT makes my hands hurt after 1 combat. I know this could be easily fixed with rebind-able controls, but I still think that RT & LT should be the default bindings.

The shield icon is perfect, great job.

I still find the AIs unfair because I cannot predict their attacks at all. The "preparation phase" of their animations that tells you where and what attack they are going to do it's very short (I've tried only beginner this time). However, thanks to the new controls I've been very close to beating intermediate (about 5% health second and third try), while I couldn't even lower its health to 40% when I tried last time with old controls.

Keep it up, overall this is very good, I love it an I'm looking forward to seeing more.

I loved the feel of the controls at first, after an hour i realised one really important factor...

I loved being able to lean to left and jab with right hand, it felt more technical and like a real boxer. being able to individually control each arm is better IMO. But keep the options, being able to switch back is great.

Great work.

After beginner level, the difficulty really increased. I just don't know how to break the defense but the opponent does combos to me and knocks me out easily. You definitely need a tutorial, not a sandbox dummy punching level.

Begginer level is very difficult and the controls arnt very clear,

but after playing for a while i really enjoy the concept and i allready was a huge fan

Thanks for making this game!!!

Controls didn't feel good to me still felt awkward. I can see why a some people would enjoy, but honestly I would have the punch linked to analog stick forward for jab and a hook be the analog stick to the right rolled to the forward position. Its to hard to hit the rb while rotating the right stick. Maybe change rb to r2. Also when started controller can't control menu by itself still have to use keyboard in mouse. Other than that I think your making great progress. I am still confused on somethings like why does pressing b button hurt you and turn your face blue?

I actually think keyboard and mouse is solid. One thing is, it feels very hard to get a left hand punch when using the mouse with your right hand. A fix for this would a slider to account for hand bias perhaps. Another small bug is when I've been holding down block, if I click left mouse without letting go of block, it doesn't register. What should happen is it should switch to the most recent input. Camera height should be changeable as well. Final small critique, the game makes me quite dizzy, as I'm spinning around a lot, not sure how to fix this though.

Much better than previous version! But can you add Stadia controller support as well?

I like the new noobs control

My problem with the game is probably me :) Can't handle the leaning mechanic so Toby beats me down quickly and after 10 minutes I lose interest. Important: Not saying it is bad, just not my kind of game.
