Welcome to Hard Knock Academy! Fight all sorts of students in this fast-paced, school-themed fighting game! ------------------------------------------------- CONTROLS A/S/D - Dodge Space - Block Left Mouse/K - Punch After building up enough points on the Punch-O-Meter, you can release a devastating Super Attack! ------------------------------------------------- Some students are wittier than others and will have a wide array of attacks to choose as opposed to others. Stay vigilant and try to recognize attack patterns, because your movement kit is more than enough to handle it! Your... uhh, girl... friend? will provide you with a basic depiction of what to expect in the fight. Pay attention and try and see if her advice can be put to work!
I made HKA as a school project, which might explain the game's stunning 3.95 total songs and locally-sourced Scratch sound effects, but I'm proud of what I managed to make in about a week. ------------------------------------------------- CREDITS J.L. as co-creator (not of game but project overall) Me for everything else. The game's soundtrack uses the Tomodachi Collection, Wario Land 4, Harvest Moon SNES and OMORI soundfonts. ------------------------------------------------- OST now on YouTube! https://youtu.be/RhjO5JTRi8c ------------------------------------------------- UPDATE LOG 3/26/25 - initial conception 4/1/25 | v1.00 - published game 4/1/25 | v1.10 - fixed bug where a game over animation on fight 5 would trigger multiple times sequentially 4/1/25 | v1.20 - changed damage patterns in stages 4 and 5, added new music and changed themes for stages 4 and 5, aligned !@#$'s head position as well as fixing some inconsistencies, changed rex and junior's sprites 4/2/25 | v1.25 - fixed rex's attack animation, a music selection error, and some sprites showing on the title screen 4/4/25 | v1.30 - changed three in-game songs and removed old versions 10/9/25 | v1.31 - mapped 'K' to punch, fixed bug where Derrick's sprite would map to football's if it was out when the timer ran out, decreased the time it took for the coach (level 3 teacher) to blow his whistle
