How to Play
Welcome to Manbomber, an explosive homage to the old-time multiplayer classic made with PICO-8! In this game, your goal is to drop bombs on the battlefield to eliminate all other players in time and be the last manbomber standing.
The game can be played with up to 4 players battling each other. While in the 2-player mode, both players can use the same keyboard to control their manbomber, a controller for each player is required for all other modes. Any Controller which can be connected to your device will do!
So grab a couple of friends, choose one of the three battlefields and blast off!
Items
While bombing your way through the battlefield, you will come across various items which may help (or hinder) you along the way:

Amazing. I have been hoping for a great 4-player bomberman on Pico-8. There have been a couple of decent ones, but this one is awesome.
Even a peppy soundtrack to match ;)
excellent! Levels with different mechanics and handicaps would take this to the next level. Also, enemy ai would be nice :D
Hi, I am currently working on the following modifications:
- Add hidden 5 player mode
- Dynamically assign a controller to each player
- Control the UI using any controller
- Allow multiple direction keys to get pressed
Please provide feedback, if you gave it a try!

i absolutley love your version, the original manbomber is fun but playing 5-player mode is awesome and now we won't fight over UI controls too!
Is there a way to program AI with varying difficulties please.
This is amazing. Would love to see AI implemented for single-player usage, or even as an additional opponent when playing 2 or 3.
