About This Game

—STANCES—

• 
  

  NEUTRAL

  Passive master-stance that grants dynamic traversal at extreme speeds. Any surface that looks climbable: Is. Simply walk into it.

• 
  

  STRAFE

  Activated master-stance from which almost all meaningful attacks are deployed from. In strafe, the camera is locked behind the character and jumping is replaced with kicks while in STRAFE.

• 
  

  PROWL

  Activated sub-stance that provides a low-to-earth profile that modifies attacks to hit low, all while maintaining speed.

• 
  

  AERIAL

  Passive sub-stance invoked while airborne, allowing for high speed in-air attacks and rapid vertical navigation.

—ATTACKS—

• 
  

  FIRE

  Ranged attacks, FIRE doesn’t do direct damage, instead, the more a target incurs FIRE damage, their damage intake is increased as well as their movement speed being slowed. FIRE damage is regenerated passively or quickly regenerated while in RESET.

• 
  

  FORM

  Attacks that emanate from the body or while being in a half-sword stance FORCE strikes. Most combat is performed through FORM. Incurring FORM damage exponentially increases damage intake from all sources and enables single kill shots from FORCE attacks. FORM damage is slowly regenerated over time, and can be moderately regained through being in RESET.

• 
  

  FORCE

  Attacks that kill. Typically, the slowest and sluggish of attacks with a higher whiff punish window, when a target incurs too much FORCE damage, they die. FORCE attacks will do miniscule damage if not enough FORM damage has been accumulated. FORCE attacks are used as slower, long ranged finishing blows. FORCE damage can only regenerate slightly through transferring between consenting units at an inefficient loss ratio, or replenished when a hostile is killed.

• 
  

  ALL ATTACKS

  Being hit in the back will result in a 4x damage multiplier, if you are hit while in AERIAL or PROWL will incur a 2x damage multiplier. DO NOT run from engagements, you will regret it.

—UTILITY—

• 
  

  BLOCK

  While in STRAFE, walk backwards from any attack to BLOCK, you will incur chip damage, though you cannot die from blocking, however some overhead attacks can override through block.

• 
  

  TECH

  Walk forward into any attack while in STRAFE to TECH, while it is a small window of opportunity and puts you at risk of eating an incoming attack, if you successfully tech an incoming strike you will take zero damage, build meter, and gain frame advantage to retaliate against your attacker.

• 
  

  METER

  Value resource needed to execute super attacks and is needed to CHARGE attacks, METER is built with any successful melee hit.

• 
  

  CHARGE

  Integer resource needed for FIRE attacks and needed to CHARGE attacks. Virtually all attacks can be charged to increase its damage output at the cost of both METER and CHARGE. CHARGE can either be regenerated quickly by entering a charging state or allowing it to slowly passively replenish.
