Short description
A traditional, ground-based 2.5D fighting game (with skeletons) that takes a lot of inspiration from anime/hyper fighters. A nice balance between eccentric mechanics and slower, footsies-based neutral.
About this game
The Skeletons Are Fighting is a traditional 2.5D fighting game about skeletons dueling from across the ages. Fight as a stoic ship captain from the 1800s or as a fitness obsessed workaholic from the 20th century or as one of the other, very deceased, skeletons from the 6 character roster. If you want to mix it up a little bit or none of the default movesets fit your style, choose a different Specialty to completely switch up how the characters play. Accounting for each Specialty, that’s 18 different movesets and archetypes at your disposal! Characters Yor - A swashbuckling ship captain from old. He uses his long sword to control the midrange, and has a well-rounded arsenal of specials for any situation. Fredrick - A sauvé monster hunter from an unknown era. He uses a seemingly infinite amount of knives (both for throwing and stabbing) to keep opponents at bay. Wreath - A mysterious and shy nature lover who’s forever timeless. They use their long spear-tipped scythe to space out the opponent and tricky movement options to keep them guessing. Gigante - An imposing, not so gentle giant from the cold era.

He excels in all ranges with quick punches and kicks, and a variety of specials to both control space and maintain offense. Albert - A bad to the bone boxer. They use their quick speed and cheap tricks to rush down and mix up their opponents. Specialties A Specialty is the “default” moveset. Not much to say as it’s how your character will play if you just mash through the menus. B Specialty is the “alternate” moveset. This Specialty will bring a whole new playstyle and archetype to the character. Nothing is off limits. Move properties will change, they might have more or less specials, it’s basically a whole new character! C Specialty is the “advanced” moveset. This Specialty will come with new mechanics, new animations, and generally add more complexity to the character. Gameplay The gameplay is a nice mix of slower neutral with eccentric mechanics and moves that take inspirati…
