We’ve put a lot of time and effort into testing and improving our main combat mechanisms over the last two years. When creating a fun, unique, and user-friendly fighting system, several additional factors must be taken into account in addition to how responsive and smooth the controls feel.
As a result, we have focused on close-quarters combat and the utilization of deflection and charging assaults when designing our bouts. However, the standard side-scrolling action controls are still in place, so you can still use basic maneuvers like dash, double jump, and wall leap/climb.
