Get ready to re-learn how to fight. This game features a physics based combat system with directional attacks. It’ll take time to master! Don’t worry, gladiators exist to be sacrificed. You control your character fully, at all times, based on complex inputs – you will never sit there while an animation plays. This game’s combat will take practice: at first you will find it hard to even hit anything properly. To win and master combat you will have to slow down and pay attention, pressing random buttons in a panic will only send your gladiator to an even earlier grave. You will learn how to move, how to use momentum to hit HARD, how to hit targeted weak spots and eventually, you will make up your own moves and fight in your own style.An unforgiving Gladiator Roguelite experience. Take control of a gladiator with a single life, that you lead to an inevitable dea– I mean, to victory and glory! Fight from the Pits to the Arena into the Stadium, pleasing larger and larger crowds until you finally become a legend of the Grand Stadium. There are many roads to becoming champion. Try different approaches and improvise through the randomisation to survive in the long run. Strategise your way to victory – combat skills alone are not enough! Deal with random events, choose your next matches, please the rich patrons, please the crowds, expand your school, setup your training regime, bribe for information, hire professional help… and much more!
