A jam submission

X 'em UpView game page

You don't wanna beat 'em up. You want them to beat themselves up. Use Shift and Spacebar to dodge and parry away!

Fun idea. Kind of hard to play without much feedback, but that's expected with a jam game. You might want to look into "Way of the Passive Fist" which is supposed to also be a beat 'em up based around dodges and parries instead of actual attacks I think.

Good idea but I feel like ennemies are attacking too fast (I mean their attacks are instantaneous)

Thanks for the feedback! We had to rush some things about the enemy AI, so their only 'windup' is really the cooldown on their attacks, but indeed a visible windup is a good idea.
