Early Access Review
A pretty awesome, fast paced fighter in the style of the smash bro's series. I saw it at first as 'one of those smash bros clones' but to my joy, found it to be really well executed. and to top it off, the ranked community is usually insanely friendly. The devs also are involved and care about most of the players suggestions.

This game revolves around each character having similar movesets aside from signiture moves and stats, meaning some are better designed for speed and assault, where others may be insanely good at defending and edge guarding.

The game consists of many weapons that each have different movesets(they have the same moveset shared across characters when using light attacks) each character or "hero" has two that they can pick up from weapon pickups.

Some weapons include:

Hammer: High force and range, it's stuns last for quite a while too. Unsure about it's throwing capabilities but I think it has a lot of force if it hits

Sword: Light attacks create huge arcs and can be used quickly to punish players.

Spear: Can be thrown pretty well due to it's large hitbox and increased throw force, pretty versatile weapon that allows you to use moves that have quite a bit of priority if used right. Most hero's signatures with this involve dashing forward or spinning.

Gun: A weapon that has incredible range and a fair amount of damage, however the hitboxes do not protect the player against very close enemies. One strategy is to pivot around your enemy and pop shots at them.

Bow: They have a large amount of diagonal attacks and can combo pretty well, a large range and momentum gain too.

Rocket lance: amazing for defense. Mainly horizontal charge attacks. I don't know too much about it, rarely use it.

In short, I love this game. It's free, so theres no harm trying... Unless you have RSI.
