Mr. Gigafist found himself in quite a predicament. He got attacked by a bunch of irradiated raiders who are out for his blood. Little did they know that they were up against a master of martial arts, ready to beat them to a bloody pulp with his one-punch technique. The local populace of mutated cactus men caught sight of the ongoing brawl and decided to cheer for our hero. Unfortunately, their presence does more bad than good. The more fans Mr. Gigafist has, the harded the brawling becomes for him. Thank goodness the locals have the right mind to throw him a beer or two.

Thanks, man! I guess I had the black knight's flesh wound in the back of my head when making the gibs.
@corndog
That is a valid tactic, requiring just as much cunning as fighting the raiders head-on. Thanks for playing.
@slavicgames
Thank you. How would you like the scene be made learer? We were hoping to achieve a clean look for the environment but the chaos among characters is intentional.

It's available now! Hope it works...
I liked the gore effects and that the enemies were attacking the other enemies. :D
I would like to have an option for getting more health and once I was on the buildings, I was totally trapped. :$
Still, I got a bit confused about why Left Click is Right Punch and vice versa. Not very intuitive, and more often than not, I thought that the hitboxes were a bit out of place. Some punches were not connecting, and I even felt that some of _their_ punches hit me more than once on the same swing.
Ah well. Still, as a top down brawler, this isn't half bad. Very entertaining for some minutes, specially with a lot of fans on the screen. In behalf of my team, keep up the good work! :whale:
Graphics and Sound are a bit lackluster, but I liked the idea and the game mechanics work pretty well.
At some point I was standing in a heap of beer bottles and the enemies were having a hard time even making their way through the crowd of cactus fans. Started to lag a lot though ;)
I think the game did juice well, I particularly enjoyed the punch sound effects and the effects when running over dead enemies where they explode. The BGM seems a little quiet, but that may be just my imagination. I think the BGM itself fit well with the game.
Cool game, I'm a sucker for arcade-style games so I enjoyed this fast-paced type of gameplay a lot.
