Antistatic

This game needs more attention.

It’s the most Melee-like platform fighter out at the moment in a genre overran by developers too afraid to commit to the formula that made the genre so big competitively.

Most developers try to differentiate their games with weird, unsatisfying, shallow mechanics that end up souring the experience, but this game from my short time playing is more set on pure and solid gamefeel and exploring the genre from it’s roots, with unique movesets instead of directly ripping or tweaking already existing characters.

Very early in development, so it’s lacking in a lot of departments. That said, the core gameplay is tight and with some time most of the problems will be fixed and most missing features will be implemented. Also, the dev seems pretty engaged with the community and is very active, at least on discord, while posting constant updates about the development timeline. Overall, at it’s current state it’s a very ‘rough’ game with a good core that only shows signs of improving.

Dispite its simplicity is the game a lot of fun and stays fun for a long time. The Map ideas are great and the character design is just gorgeous. The tiny details about the character just give the game so much life and you can tell that the creators put a lot of effort in it. I can recommend this game for everyone who loves to play with and against friends.

Double Turn

You can be knocked out of your own combo, characters lack much difference between each other, and AI is easily exploited. It’s not a very fun game. The potential is there and its core loop is interesting but there is too little here for it to be recommended as is.

Nice idea and design, poor realization

The game can’t be considered as a finished project even if one overlooks the lack of content, because some fundamental features don’t work:

[olist]

  • AI in Practice mode doesn’t work: an NPC just stands still and meekly gets player’s hits. If it’s supposed to be so, then the developer should have added several options to adjust the NPC behavior like make it always blocking or jumping or performing a sequence of movements.* A player’s profile disappears after closing the game, that leads to disappearing of a gamepad custom configuration also. Moreover, the game doesn’t allow me to create a profile with the same name again although I don’t see it and can’t choose it.

Super vs. World

Its a cool 2D multiplayer game where you have to headstomp on on other players or get weapon/powerups from boxes to decrease their size and kill them.

There are many mode in this game like last standing wins, most kills wins, capture the area and more..

There are more then 100 challenges to complete for single player and a lot of character

It’s a fun, well developed game! Multiple maps, controller support, and sound design that actually sounds like it’s supposed to! A typical tank game, as far as that goes.

Kakatte Koi Yo!

Captures cute and fun, whimsy with a competitive spirit. It’s great as a party game, but with a slight learning curve.

I love the art and the music is great! And while it seems like a simple concept, some levels feature some creatively ingenious designs.

This is definitely staying in my party game rotation

This game combines cute graphics with awesome fighting mechanics, Choose your catacter (pun intended) and get ready for battle. With the single player training and the ability to play with your friends on remote play makes it 100% better. If you have some money lying around and a friend, you can enjoy some good time with your friend.

Great PvP game. Fun one to couch play or with people online. Map design looks nice and looking forward to thrashing some friends.

Woo eeh! That hydra mini game is hard but in the way that makes you wanna keep going until you’ve smashed your monitor.

If you’re in for a challenge the single will give it to you in spades, with a thumping techno soundtrack to get you pumped for each attempt.

Versus mode is a fast and wild, reflecting a shot into your opponents face and having them try to block only to realise it’s an unblockable bullet and gasp in horror as their little alien explodes into dust, is something to experience.

Great game, would buy again! (y)

ReallyGoodBattle

ReallyGoodBattle

ReallyGoodBattle is a fighting game with a lot of heart and attention to detail put into it.

I can tell that the developer has truly studied what has made fighting games in the past satisfying to play: There is plenty of rewarding feedback when confirming a kill, movement is fluid, fighting is balanced, jumping is responsive, and plenty of nuetral-game mechanics exist. All that combined allows all sorts of players to pick up and start fighting, regardless of their play style.

With all indie games, there are some pros and cons…

Pretty good game, controls take a little getting used to, the character creator could use more models, maybe allow you to color certain parts other then coloring the entire character. Overall, an alright fighting game.

Edit: Forgot that this game costed money, sorry, haven’t played it in awhile.
