Divekick boils down the fighting game genre into two buttons with no d-pad directional movement. The focused gameplay reinforces fundamental skills of the genre: mind games, spacing, timing, and quick reactions.
Dive (into the air) makes your character jump straight up. Kick causes your character to fly foot-first at a downward angle. If you press kick on the ground, you can jump away from your opponent. The first hit wins the round, and the player who wins five rounds first wins the game.
Key Features:
- 13 characters, each with a fighting style and special techniques
- A story for every character in the game, including an intro, ending, and rival battles
- Ranked and non-ranked GGPO-powered online play. Includes ranking boards for each character — and overall
- Local versus play for two players, with easy button reconfiguration
- Full Steamworks integration (Steam version only)
Divekick is rated "T" for "Teen" by the ESRB and is available on Steam and PlayStation Network for $9.99.
