Steam Store description

A high-intensity arcade sword-fighting game where every strike is lethal . Slash, clash, parry, dodge and watch limbs fly in the atmosphere of historical feudal Japan. Choose your move carefully - the first cut is also the last. A refined and intuitive fighting system - Aim your sword to block attacks and strike around your opponent's guard. Parry their attacks with your own, dodge to close the distance, and interrupt them with a well-timed shove. It takes a minute to learn, and a lifetime to master. Customize your fighter - An array of different options to wear. Choose and colour each piece separately to make each character your own. Dueling with deadly results - Send heads and limbs flying as blood rains down and stains the characters and environment. Chop your opponent to pieces, or equip a wooden sword instead for a little mercy and possibly a concussion. Duel your friends in local multiplayer , fight custom AI opponents , try to stay alive in Survival mode , or hunt down enemies in the Scenario mode campaign. Play with friends remotely using Steam Remote Play Together. Bonus modes - Laser swords, custom blood, floating weapons, zombies, and more.
