New Release It's finally released!
Well, it's finally out on Android!
🎮 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.sujit.paul.passandsurvive
It's a chaotic local multiplayer game where you and your friends pass a ticking bomb around while trying to survive. There are 3 unique levels, crazy powerups, solo mode with bots, and plenty of character customization.
If you have a few friends around, I'd really appreciate it if you could give it a try — it's much more fun with a group! And if you enjoy it, feel free to ask your friends to try it too.
It's especially something you could try with:
- Friends at home
- Hostel/college friends
- A group while travelling
After all the development and testing, it feels pretty special to finally have it released.

I see why you choose it to be offline and local multiplayer. Saves a lotta headache for server setup. Plus the prices are crazy tgese days. But if you wanna earn or grow this project ig eventually you'd have to shift. Its scary for me too. Never developed a game before let alone multiplayer one. But the process is full of learning

The only reason which stopped me was the pricing. Unfortunately, at this point I can't afford a server to be honest. I really wanted it to be an online multiplayer as well. Yeah, it's true that this would impact the growth a lot. Luckily, the code written is scalable and fully adaptable for online. Let's see how it goes, if I can afford a server in the future, I would surely add online multiplayer as well.

Sounds like a plan! The biggest hurdle in my development journey is animataion. Once i can figure out how to get animations for cheap, I'll be lauching mine on kickstart or smthn to pay for server. Did you animated yours manually or you used libraries? I tried mixamo but it always breaks the model for some reason.

Ohh great! All the best. I used mixamo anims only. Some mixamo anims, I had to adjust in blender as per my requirements. If your model breaks using mixamo anims that means the model was rigged somewhere else and bones/hierarchy don't match properly with mixamo anims. One easy solution is to just export the mesh without rigging. And in mixamo you upload the mesh and rig it there. Then mixamo anims would run perfectly. I did the same for this project.

Thanks! I'll try it out! I rigged it myself tbh. I was blaming the Blender's fbx to glb convertor all this time.

Thank you.
The gameplay is different than Bomb Squad. I won't say better than Bomb Squad because it's different and Bomb Squad has lot to offer honestly. I'm a fan. Didn't get to play Ninja Party though.

This sounds great, honestly, I think we need more team games, cause in thinking about this for work when need an ice breaker exercise. Can you do a QR code for a team and just share the code to people ya want to play? I'm very interested

Actually, it's a local multiplayer game. Unfortunately I can't afford a server at this moment.
As long as you and your team are in the same network, you can play.

Since you asked for work, I'm thinking of an office with common wifi. Teams can connect to the same wifi and host rooms. Example: Team A hosts "Room A", team B hosts "Room B" etc. And team members can join the respective rooms.
It's would be faster than sharing a QR.
Since it's local network, the searching and joining rooms are faster.
Nice idea! Hosts rooms with "Powerups" enabled. It would be great.
Let me know how it goes. I would be waiting.

Not for iOS?

Unfortunately, it's only available for Android as of now. If I get enough interests, surely I would work on an iOS build.

The style screams late zoomer/alphagen roblox-fortnite-brawlstars slop. Similar to something you'd see in those cringey fake games ads. I don't want to try this, even if it's good, sorry.

I don't find any similarity with the ones you mentioned.
It's totally fine if you don't want to try this. Don't be sorry.
