The game
The streets are the dojo
A side-scrolling brawler like the arcade classics, made today: big detailed sprites, scenes with depth, the city lights at night and a combat system built for combos.
All about the game 01
Combos and juggles
Chains of hits, enemies kept in the air, wall bounces: the fighting rewards those who keep the rhythm.
02
Grabs and throws
Grab, knee, suplex. Seize enemies from behind too and hurl them into the others.
03
Real fire
Simulated flames, not looping drawings: columns, blasts and enemies burning along their own outline.
04
Two players
Play with a friend on the same screen: each with their own colour, their own moves, their own super.
