Divekick
« on: September 02, 2013, 06:23:00 PM »


Not much else to say about this really. There's a dive, and a kick, and that's it.

Reasons to buy Divekick:
    The distilled essence of the fighting game genre
    No need to memorize how each character works in detail, just pick up and go
    Stephen Hawking could play this game (physical disability is no object)
    Good training tool for other fighters

Reasons not to buy Divekick:
    $10 for the kind of game you'd find for free on Miniclip
    Renders at 720p no matter what
    No Mac/Linux support, for those that care
    PewDiePie made a video about this
    FGC in-jokes border on the cancerous (if you don't know what Stream is named after and why he has a salt shaker, you'll probably be annoyed very quickly)
    The players online who aren't PewDiePie noobs are more likely than not to be sceners working on their game who will kick your shit in

Thoughts?

I thought it looked good.
But if it costs like 10 bucks, that suxs.

Didn't the whole game start as a joke?

It did. The joke was, "What if there was a game called Divekick, and the characters were Dive and Kick, and the buttons were Dive and Kick?"

Somehow it went viral and got a publishing deal.
