Floppy Heroes

Flippy Hero is the single greatest game that has ever been created. I am Donald Trump and I approve this message.

A really dumb and fun game, single player is decently challenging, multiplayer is just random fun

Nothing more than it says on the tin. Reminds me of old floppy flash games I played as a kid. In that genre, it is an excellent title. I think I paid $5 or $10 for it. It was definitely worth the money and all 4 hours I played it.

it's a simple and good game, i played it when i was younger and it was a lot of fun, especially playing with friends with splitscreen!

u marka mnogo kubkov v brawl starse potomu chto on igraet s chitamy zabante ego pojalusta poka on ne nafarmil 50000 kubkav

Pros:
-Core gameplay is incredibly fun, simple to learn yet hard to master
-Graphics are perfect, art is well-done
-Dismemberment is disturbingly satisfying and also core to the mechanics
-I can play with my non-gamer GF and neither of us are bored
-No microtransactions!
-The music is stuck in my head rn

Cons (minor):
-controller menu implementation isn't good (controller acts as mouse)
-Unlocks only come via single-player, which sucks if you buy this for the multiplayer
-Wish there was more variety in game modes

so 9/10 buy this RN

I picked this up for 50 cents on sale and put in 7 hours until I unlocked every achievement. I had a lot of fun with this game, it's very simple but also strangely addicting. There's enough depth once you see how everything works and unlock enough items to build a unique character and playstyle. It also has couch co-op and party modes so it would be fun to play with friends. Recommended.

Summary: A whimsical romp for quick party matches. Players control a customized floppy character flipping through space and trying to strike the vulnerable areas of their opponents while desperately protecting their own. Intentionally difficult to control, Floppy Heroes may feel frustrating at first, but after a couple of games the understanding that you're not MEANT to be in full control serves as a great excuse to act silly with your mates. Great for parties, especially after a few drinks.

✔️ A simple concept, with simple rules. Hit your opponent's vulnerable areas, protect your own.
✔️ The art is fun.
✔️ Steam Link and Controller support.
✔️ Customizable characters.
✔️ Quick matches
✔️ Accessible to all types of players.
✔️ One screen makes the action easy to follow.
✔️ A lot of customization options to unlock over time improves replay value.
✔️ Singleplayer and Couch Multiplayer options

❌ Blood and gore may make what would be a family-friendly romp less desirable for some parents.
❌ Some players may feel frustrated by the feeling you're not in full control of your character.
❌ A lot of customization options are locked behind chests early on. Luckily they're all unlocked via regular gameplay over time.
❌ Singleplayer gets a little repetitive over time.

Let me start this off by saying I liked the game so much on my friends computer that I bought it to play on my own. I would have been willing to pay about 3-7$ for this game, if it works.

Now the real reason I put the "do not recommend:" the game refuses to open. I can get to the page where I can select resolution and whether it is windowed or not (I cannot change resolution or anything except for the windowed or not part), but this makes no difference. I can select windowed, hit play, and the game will proceed to open, play the (amazing) music, but just shows a black screen when I hover over the icon in the taskbar. If I click this icon, nothing happens. I have tried restarting my computer, uninstalling and reinstalling, verifying cache integrity, and looking online for something I might have missed. I DO want to play this game, badly, but without being able to play it I cannot give a good review. I feel these issues might have to do with windows 10, but I'm not sure. If you have a solution or an update that would fix this, I am watching for updates and am waiting for a response to this review.

UPDATE - I got it to work, but I had to go into my own settings and change the resolution of my monitor. In windows 10, this game refuses to work on 1366 by 768 pixels. I made my screen 6 pixels more narrow, and forced floppy heroes to give me more options resolution-wise, and so it gave me a resolution that I am able to use. This is a bug, but it no longer prevents me from playing the game. Great game - 8/10

Been playing for a while and expecting more to see! I've done every upgrade and beaten the bosses many times and there is not much left to do for me. Please devs, you should get to work.

A fun ragdoll game thats worth its price. Flop around, smash enemies, earn keys, use keys to unlock armour and weapons, and then die horrifically. Rinse, repeat but kick more ass along the way. Great time waster.

9/10 - Great game!
I don't usually review games but I had to give some positive feedback on this.
First off it's playable on every computer (I have played without lag on my 6 year old school laptop @ Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU M 430 @ 2.27GHz with integrated Intel HD graphics).
I bought this for around 4€ for couch gaming and was just gonna try it. I ended up playing 3 hours single player in a day which is alot for me.
It's like Starwhal but with weapons/armor and shooting.

The only thing that could be better is more weapons and armor.
The rest is as good as it gets.

This game is stupid. I started it thinking I was going to delete it, but after one round, my friends wanted to join in, and suddenly, it was almost midnight, and we were doubling over at the stupidity of all the fun we were having.

MUST BUY.

super fun game. I like to play it when other games are downloading or just to pass some time. It is NOT an online game, beware. But the bots are a challenge. It took me about 4 hours to beat all 10 stages, but once I did, I beat it 5 times in a row. I recommend this game and anticipate more content soon!

The cartoony art style of this game is great for the atmosphere they have in the game. The amount of times you can flip and snipe someone in the head with an arrow is crazy. It sounds like a stupid review i know, but GOSH its fun! Sit with a couple of friends or just play by yourself, you're still gonna have a good time.

Hours of fun for 3€, this game definitely is worth it.
You can have fun tweaking the values in vs mode and have fun reenacting fight scenes :
- Attack on Titan, fighing with twin swords against naked titans
- The Mountain VS Oberyn
- Starlord fighting (dual crossbow with the mask that looks like his
- And much more !

I find that I'm having to fall back on the capalist's argument, i.e. "is it worth the asking price?" In the case of Floppy Heroes, I suppose it is, since it's only about two dollars. You swing your boneless levitating warrior around the battlefield with less-than-intuitive controls, wildly swinging whatever weapon(s) you picked up from the amorphous pile in the start menu. There's a pretty big selection of weapons to choose from, but in practice, most weapons feel indistinguishable from most of the other weapons in their category. The stats on display are really vague and hardly worth noting, but none of that matters because there's only one weapon worth choosing and I'm not telling you which.

Still, the game can provide enjoyment for a few minutes at a time, so long as you spread out your play sessions with a few hours in between. And again, the game only costs two bucks, so yeah, you can check it out if you want, I guess.

Yes it stanks of mobile, and yes it's dumb. BUT it's also very cheap, very addicting, and does have some complexity with the strategy.

Essentially, this game is played with one-button-and-one-stick where you floatily try to kill other people. You do your worst to try to get the other people to fly or float into your weapon. There are lots of weapons and armor to unlock, and they all are kinda functionally different, too. Some weapons shoot things (where the one-button comes into play).

I think anyone who plays this for about three minutes would see the charm and one-more-game kind of appeal.

#YouCouldDoWayyyyWorsefor3Bucks

This is an instant-recommend. For this low price, you CAN NOT go wrong here. I played for over an hour in my first session, and the time flew by. This is one of those "one more try" sort of games, where you're SURE you can do better if you just have one more run and try harder. Plus, I'm sure the multiplayer will be a blast the next time I can get a friend to come over.

Do any of you guys remember a little game called "Ragdoll Masters" from like 10 or 15 years ago? It's kinda like that, but better, and cheaper. Seriously, that game still costs 10 bucks and you can't even get it on Steam. This is $3 (or $2.09 if you bought it during the first week like I did) and I would have gladly paid $10 for it.

The Basics:
--
So the premise of this game, (and RM, which I'm sure served as some inspiration) is that you control a floppy ragdoll of a character in a zero-G arena. The way you move determines your rotation and the positioning of your limbs based on a simple but elegant physics engine. The goal is to beat your enemies to death, while keeping yourself from getting hurt too much. Blows to the head are the key to victory, and you certainly want to keep your own head out of harm's way as much as possible.

What's new:
--
So I said that this game seems to take a lot of inspiration from "Ragdoll Masters" but what makes it better? Well, the biggest thing is the armor and weapons.

Armor makes you slower and clumsier, depending on what type you wear, and how many pieces.. but it will soak up some hits for you, before it gets too damaged and falls off.

Weapons come in 1-handed and 2-handed varieties.. you can carry any combination of 2 1-handed weapons if you desire (such as two swords, a shield and a mini-crossbow, an axe and a magic wand, etc), or a single 2-handed weapon, such as a large melee weapon, a bow and arrow, a magic staff, or a freakin CANNON.

There are many types of armor and weapons to unlock, each with their own playstyles and strengths (particularly the weapons).

Perhaps the coolest thing about the armor and weapons is that it adds variety to the enemies you face in the singleplayer mode. Instead of just 1v1, 1v2, 1vGiant, 1v2 harder dudes, 1v3, 1v2 giants, etc.. you get a bit more variety because their armor and weapons will be randomized each time. The enemies in a given round might spawn with completely different weapons than last time, which will greatly alter how you fight them.

Conclusion:
--
This is kind of a big review for a very inexpensive game. You don't need me to sit here and ramble on any further. I think it's great, I think you should try it, end of story.

I mean, it's not some epic end-all-be-all game of the year 2016 or whatever.. but will you get a lot of casual fun for your couple of dollars? I think so, definitely.

A smashing evolution of an old formula. People who've played and enjoyed Ragdoll Masters, Ragdoll Kung Fu, Hammerfall, and other turn-of-the-century physics-based beat-em-ups will recognize the excellence of this title immediately.

For the uninitiated, you control a ragdoll character in a puppet fashion, flailing their weapons toward enemy weak points. In this game, armor provides some resistance to damage before falling off entirely, and further damage to un-armored limbs will result in dismemberment. Armor can provide offensive capabilities as well, which one-ups previous titles of this kind. An armored boot beats a bare skull, and even limbs holding weapons can be lopped off for proper disarming. Ranged weapons are included, and seem pretty fairly balanced with their limitations of reload speed and aiming precision. You can block with your weapons, as well as equip shields in your off-hand.

There is some character customization available, aside from gear you can also customize hair/skin/facial features and their respective colorings. The weapons and armor can't be recolored, however. Weapons can be held in reverse grip as well as standard, adding more depth to the loadout. Customized loadouts can be saved and loaded as the situation demands.

Single player is a 10-match affair, your custom character versus ten assorted combinations of foes in varying gear and sizes. Wins unlock keys, which unlock more gear. There's no storyline, no excess reading, just heavy metal and the clash of steel.

Upside:
Quick and painless to drop in or out of
Simple to learn, truly impressive when skill meets talent
Great advances over previous niche titles
Local MP includes some different modes, as well as customizable gravity and move speed
Plenty of weapon variety/possible loadouts
Dirt cheap game, I paid $2.09

Downside:
No female floppies
Can't customize gear appearance, just character
AI is fairly easy, didn't see difficulty options
Game is short, All achievements in first day/3hrs ingame
Music is repetitive, limited selection of tracks
Graphics are a bit like Flash games on Kongregate or Newgrounds in style (YMMV)
*Damage is not affected by movement speed, damage dealt is based on gear vs weapon. So a weapon that deals three damage to an unarmored head, will always deal three damage, whether rebounding lightly off the opponent's sword or being swung down with the wrath of heaven.

In the end, Floppy Heroes totally delivers at its price point. I highly recommend this as yet another way to smack your friends around the house, and I hope the developer continues to hone their talents and release either updates or sequels, which I'd be happy to invest in.

Note: Other games you might like include the original, Ragdoll Masters(10$ from dev site), Swordy (E.A.15$), Hammerfight (5$ on steam, abandonware, formerly called Hammerfall), and Rag Doll Kung Fu(10$ on steam).

*denotes my biggest fault found with this game

I was just looking for a cheap, quick, time killer. And thats exactly what I found. It's very entertaining, if not a little bit hard to control (usually comes down to just luck, or maybe I'm just bad)
I'd love to see this have an online multiplayer.
