How it feels

A blisteringly fast retro-styled platform fighter where one-hit-kills and unique character movesets create chaotic, competitive matches that are easy to pick up but reward mastery.

What players say

Players praise the simple controls and deep fighting, and call it a top-tier local multiplayer game. But the community is tiny and finding online matches requires the Discord. Opinions split on the $20 price and character balance: some say newer characters overshadow the originals, while others enjoy having simple and complex options.
