One hit, certain kill. Single hit based fighting game for the Playdate, focusing on simple mechanics, timing and footwork.

Gameplay

Take one of three stances (high, mid, or low) and attack your enemy to strike him down in one hit. Predict your enemy stance and use the appropiate block to evade your enemies attacks. An attack from a specific stance can only be blocked by the same block stance, e.g. an attack from the low stance must be blocked by a low-block.
