Dashwalk Dueling
Dance your sword across the arena while trying to keep your feet on the ground in this fast-paced platform fighter. Its minimal mechanics and visuals are the foundation for complex ground movement, creative combo routes, and fast-flowing combat! Choose from eight supers and reversals to dismantle the competition.
Intricate Combos
Dashwalk Dueling’s combo system lends itself well to 50/50’s and frame traps, although some simple combos still existed throughout, as you carry your opponent across the stage with jab strings. Players will darken when in hitstun to help you to understand combos intuitively, alongside a combo counter that will give you clear feedback on your combos and strings.
Guarding and Parrying
Dashwalk Dueling has a deep guarding and parrying system. Players can hold a guard against their opponent, and at any time during that guard they can dash away, release the guard to parry, or guard poke, to help them to react to an opponent’s option and parry. Guarding on its own does nothing but open up these options, if you are hit while guarding, it is the same as being hit while not guarding.
Grounded Movement
Dashwalk Dueling’s combat is built around grounded movement. When you’re hit offstage or run offstage, you can jump back, otherwise, no jumping is allowed. This encourages spacing heavy grounded play with any airtime being a struggle for your life.
Powerful Training Mode
Dashwalk Dueling’s training mode is built with labbing and competitive play in mind. Features like frame advantage, move frame data, hitbox displays, per frame simulation, an adaptive combo counter, and more are included and togglable.

Wave after wave of enemy’s come at you from every direction in this fun little wave survival game. Great time killer game. Great if you want to play something that doesn’t require a lot of thinking.

Move on!

Light Fighter is a Unity Asset flip from asset flippers, beans rolls. They’ve copy+pasted a Unity store asset and have put it on Steam to try to scam people into paying them for someone else’s work. This time it’s a basic minimalist 2D top down wave survival “brawler” demo, presumably to teach people how to make mobile apps or something. Resolution is locked, gameplay is laughably simple, less complex than Space Invaders, and yet here they are trying to get people’s money for this. This was dumped into DailyIndieGame bundles immediately at launch.

Airship Killer
good, not demanding 2D platformer. Nice music, graphics and controls. Weighs only 50 mb and will go to the weakest pc =). I think many will like it for its low price. I want the developers to add different achievements

Daily Espada
Daily Espada is a small gem, a 2D action with gameplay very dynamic and entertaining.
In the game there are many upgrades and extras such as super attacks, new combos etc.
Very beautiful boss battles, in maximum difficulty becomes truly play difficult, but still VERY fun!
In short, a game that does not cost much, and it provides a solid gameplay and fun!
I recommend it, and it’s a shame to see so few reviews, because the game is worth so much!

Slashing Brazilian folklore monsters and bosses, saving the world and making your family rich in the wierdest game show ever? Sign me up. The game is short by my accounts. Graphics are dark and unique, but also can lead to some visual confusion. Not greatness, but fun, short, but enjoyable.

Fight for that Ball
FIGHT FOR THAT BALL
A minimalistic football fighting 2D platformer with extensive custom maps support. Fast four-player couch coop fun with obstacles, explosions and a bit of fighting!
It is a football game in its essence, two teams with up to two players per team. During play, the primary objective is to score a point by kicking the ball into the opponent’s goal. Actually, from which side does not matter, as long as it passes the two poles. You can fight a bit to gain a time advantage or block attacks and heavy shots on the goal.
You can draw a map in any paint app that supports PNG files. Put it into the game and have a good old scrap on it. Probably the most exciting feature is the custom maps support with its many additional settings for the maps to give you even more freedom to come up with crazy stuff.
Fight for that Ball also comes with Steam Remote Play support, a target practice mode to improve your timing and shooting skills, a couple of team statistics and achievements.
Background
Even if it does not look like much, I started work on that game a while ago. After my friends and I had some fun matches in a similar minigame back then, I thought it would be fun to have it a bit faster and more maps. Here we are six years later, a fast football platformer where you can bring your own drawings to shape the map. I enjoy the wacky ball physics and strange fights, so I hope that some of you can have the same fun.
I’m thrilled to see what maps you come up with. So, please share your maps, thoughts or experiences over in the Steam Community section.
Create custom maps
You can create your own Fight for that Ball custom maps with two steps. The base layer is a PNG file containing the stage colliders. Every part of the image that is not white will be seen as a collider. The background should be white or transparent. The next layer is a JSON file for advanced map options to move and rotate goals, move player or ball spawn points. Custom maps must be stored in “%userprofile%/Appdata/LocalLow/Beardman Studios/fightforthatball/CustomMaps/”. Fight for that Ball comes with a custom map guide. You can find all files in the custom maps directory under CustomMapGuide. Both files must have the same name, E.g. test.png and test.json. The JSON file is not required. The game would load the default positions for goals and spawn points if no JSON file was found.

Good time waster

This is a very straightforward party game where you can kill your friends with increasingly large swords and is that not all you want from a game? The survival mode is also pretty nice if you want to play solo.

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.
