GRABE 4X4 (Demo 1.0) Free Beat 'em up beatemup
C O R E G A M E M E C H A N I C
This is the first Beat 'Em Up game to implement the innovative 4x4 stylistic combat system as its core mechanic. The 4x4 system uses four basic buttons, each capable of executing different combo attacks, jump attacks, dash attacks, and grab attacks.
In this game, your enemy has more intel about you, which is why they can detect most of your attacks and moves. They can randomly detect two of your four active attack buttons at a time. This means they can block, dodge, or even counter your attack if you press the wrong button.
The 4x4 combat system offers the player more than 30 different attack options and combination mechanics to deal with this problem, but you need to determine which attacks will work by directly engaging with your enemies.
It is highly recommended to use the standard 8-button X-Input controller. Pause the game during game-play and go to the controls menu to view the list of 4x4 mechanics for this game.
"WATCH THE YOUTUBE VIDEO FOR THE DEMONSTRATION
The 4x4 innovative and stylistic combat system eliminates the limited and repetitive mechanics of old-school beat 'em ups. Fast and responsive attack combinations provide the player with multiple options from 27 unique attack mechanics.
The combat system is well-balanced for the beat 'em up genre, allowing players to block and perform escape maneuvers using the 4-direction dodging system for both defensive and offensive attacks.
Strategic epic boss battles and intelligent enemy AI can block most of your attacks randomly and detect the same attack avoidance system.
The game is still in development, so expect some minor bugs during game play. Look forward to more changes and updates in our next demo version.
By accurately reporting bugs and sharing your critical feedback and suggestions, you are helping us polish and finish the game.

solid mechanics
thanks for playing our new demo with 3 levels will be available in the last week of march so stay tuned.
READ VERY IMPORTANT:
If you are first time playing the game I suggest you pause the game during gameplay and review the list of control mechanics.
To become more effective in 4x4 system combat system, you need to hold the blocking button and press directional button for the 4 directional dodging system frequently as an escape both defensive and offensive mechanic, usefull when your enemy is just blocking your attacks and once you are facing back with you enemy thats the time the BACK COMBO ATTACK and BACKFLIP will shine in your gameplay. Keep practicing!
BLINKING YELLOW - Your stamina (yellow orange bar) is low and temporary you can’t use all your running attacks untill it recovers on certain percentage.
BLINGKING RED - All your attacks is unblockable within 20 seconds only so hit as many as you can and use your grabe mode wisely when in worst situation (red G-icon).
cool
thanks for playing the game :)
