Diskophoros

Diskophoros

A downloadable game for Windows

Diskophoros(Greek: "Discus-Bearer") is a fast-paced local multiplayer fighting game. Face your friends in thrilling laser disc combat on ever changing procedurally generated maps.

Features:

procedurally generated maps

local multiplayer for up to 4 players

various powerups

rebindable controls

an awesome soundtrack byBARCHboi andGraham Kartna

How to play:

Controls can be configured in game. Even though binding the controls to keyboard keys is possible,a controller for each player is strongly recommended. I've had most fun using the following bindings:


movement axis: move your character, aim, duck

jump: jump while ducking to fall through a platform

attack: throw your disc, press again to recall it

powerup: use a picked up powerup

Powerups:

Powerups, after being picked up, spawn an icon above your characters head. Some powerups can only be activate, when you carry or don't carry your disc. This is indicated by the icons opacity.

[] Comet Strike:
Throw your disc with high speed.

[] Laser Beam:
A deadly laser connects your character and your disc temporarily.

[] Quick Recall:
Your disc speeds up and returns to you, even passing through walls.

[] Invisibility:
You become temporarily invisible.

[] Teleport:
Your character and your disc swap places.

[] Rewind:
Your character is followed by a shadow of its past self. Activate to jump back to a former position.

[] Shield:
Temporarily blocks of your opponents discs.

Troubleshooting:

While already playable, Diskophoros is still in alpha. If you find any bugs or have feedback, please let me know. Below is a technical FAQ. Click the arrows to expand:

Why do I get a message from the windows firewall?

The map generator runs as a local HTTP server (mapserver.exe). Since the server is accessed locally, you can decline this message and the game should still work. So far I have found no way to disable this message.

The game runs too fast.

This is an issue currently invastigated. If you have a monitor with a high framerate (for example 144Hz) try to lower the framerate to 60Hz.

I have trouble configuring my gamepads.

Try quitting Diskophoros, deleting config/controls.json, restarting Diskophoros and reconfiguring the gamepads. If you run into this issue, please drop me a message.

I recently stumbled upon this game while searching for local multiplayer games and man, everything about this is perfect. The soundtrack, artstyle (Which reminds me of Nidhogg), Mechanics, EVERYTHING. Plus, it gives alot of TRON feel to the game which I enjoy very much.

Cool idea but with a bit of sounds and gfx would be better

cute, free, simple, love it. If you remap, three people can play with the same keyboard. It is worth for a friends couch hang.

the game crashes just before the game starts logs:

pls can you add 32 bit version

I think it'd be cool to have a mode where the players could choose a specific power up to have that they can use on a cooldown kinda like a special move in super smash bro's and other fighting type games.

Still an amazing game generally but I just thought I'd mention it because why not ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I can't remap/change the controls for keyboard. When I save the controls they return to the determined controls

i dont have friends to play with :(

this game its awesome, i just miss a online multiplayer mode

for some reason the game cant appear on my screen

looks beautiful, downloading now

i hope u keep  devolping wrong speelll

and make private server

host game or join random

and online mode with other people 

minigames to please

And add more maps please

I like this game i was playing a chasing game with the disk lol i kept falling and running on a map that does not kill you when go fall please can you add mods mode if you want to. GOOD GAME!!! 

Amazing game! Is there any plan to make it available to play on Linux?

Hey, this is a pretty neat game-- very much my style of game (like Towerfall, Duck Game... and my game that I put out a few years ago).

Anyways, I really dig the art style and the concept. It's extremely intuitive. Some of the power-ups are very clever too. I can tell that a lot of thought went into it. I want to see how this thing progresses.

One issue I had though is I wasn't able to delete it after closing the game. It said that a file was still in use, but I couldn't find it, so I had to restart my PC. Not sure what that's about.

Hi, thank you for the kind words. I'm glad you liked it!

The procedural map generator runs as a separate process, which is usually terminated once the games main executable terminates.

I guess in your case the map generator was still running and locking files for some reason. Maybe the main game did not terminate properly?

I love the game it's very well done

This game is amazing. How does the procedural generation work? not the textures but the actual placement of the tiles.

Hi! The controls are already configurable.
From the main menu, go to controls.

There you can delete the first players controls by holding the attack button.

You can then add a new control set and assign new keys/gamepad buttons.

okay¡ muchas gracias, pero poder configurar los del player 1, espero disfrutar del juego :3

One of the best games that I have ever played! Good job, I hope you keep developing this game.

this game is awesome

this game is nice i am also making games please try it

MAN, i really love this game!! its very fun and has a good control settings, i hope the person who make this have a wonderful day because this game is damn good

Thank you! I am glad you liked it. Have a wonderful day, too :)

Deleted2 years ago

you cant even make a awesome game like this, idiot

Having a problem with the l-r keybinds whenever i press l or r it closes the game


nice game tho

Hi, thank you for giving it a try!
This sounds like a bug :(

Would you send me contents of "log/log.txt" so I can take a look?

Did you try to configure a gamepad or keyboard?
Is it a special kind of gamepad?

Can you try deleting "config/controls.json" and reconfiguring your controls?

i tried deleting it and it didnt work, but here is the log.txt contents

Thank you for the log. Unfortunately I cannot spot the cause for the error :(

If you check the task manager background apps you will find at least 1 mapserver task

end all of them then try

This game is awesome!
It has become my gf and I's go to game and I hope you continue to develop it. If you start a patreon let me know!

Thank you for your lovely comment! Reading such nice words always makes my day :)
I don't plan on starting a patreon, but I would love to do a commercial release someday.
Reception has been very positive so far and it seems to run technically stable as well :)

Until then, share it with your friends and leave a rating if you like :)

Can you make build a version for Linux please? It would be really helpful!

I played it with a friend, the keyboard it was pretty hard but with a gamepad it was amazing. I liked a lot the different power ups and maps, and the visuals are really polished. Nice job ^^

Thank you for the kind words! Yes keyboard is hard and it's definitely meant to be played with a gamepad!

Thank you for playing! Glad you liked it :)

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This is one of the best free local multiplayer games I have played in a long time. The unique idea combined with the epic soundtrack and random powerups makes a super fun couch game! I would totally pay $9.99 for this if it was more polished.
