Gameplay

It is basically a Street fighter like : two opponents face each other until one remains. There's two types of attacks : neutral and heavy. Neutral attacks can have one direction but heavy doesn't. Each successful hit can unlock a combo branch like a tree, but missing only one makes you start over with precious recovery time.

Classes

One item = one weapon = one character class. Each have their own combo tree and statistics (see more bellow). They also have stances depending on the item color, material or other stuff altering their statistics. For example an empty gluestick have more speed due to less weight, but can be more easily pushed.

Chopstick

The long ranged boi. Agile and excels at pissing off enemies by staying at distance. Quite cliché but hey I was bored ok ?

Unarmed

Literally. No weapon ? No worries. This nervous bastard keeps itself into very close combat with rapid & strong attacks, catching enemies before roughing them up badly.


Ballpen

The good old all rounder of all video-games : swordsman ! Nothing too special about it, but it have quite a good coverage & options. Go for it if you're new to the game.


Gluestick

Artillery is boring, let's do it the hard way. A big guy with a big gun, what else ? Very tough, hits hard, but easy to outrun & dodge.

Hexkey

Grab your problem and smash it to mayhem. Heavy fighter but not slow to attack, it is a specialist when catching  unaware enemies with its grappling hammer. WiP playable class.

Install instructions

The program was made with PureBasic, so your antivirus may find it suspicious (simply because it's so uncommon). There's not any Linux or Mac support yet.
Just download and execute the corresponding exe. You can if you want unzip it before starting.
☼ Some sounds are placeholders, please don't ninja me with lawyers yet.
☼ Do not touch the settings file in the game folder. If you messed up something you can delete it : the game will create a new fixed one when leaving the option menu.
☼ Go to the class gallery to check out other classes
☼ Windows interface zoom messes up the game screen. Set it to 100% for proper experience.
☼ Smaller screen = smaller fight area (but arena is the same)
☼ Feel free to post your own gameplay footage with the #Hand2Hand tag in any social networks.
☼ All game versions before the 1.0 are free, that includes demo, pre-alpha, alpha & beta.
☼ If the game doesn't show any sprites beside the background, launch it in admin (thanks @kiapigeon)
☼ Prefer reporting bugs on my discord than itch.io
☼ You can mod the game by tweaking the data file, but don't forget to create backups. There's no tutorial nor tools on how to mod the game but one step at a time.
