I would absolutly recommend this game for anyone that loves fast paced battle with friends and random people online. Its a riot!

Fast paced smash-like game, filled with adorable characters who aim to turn each other into skeletons.
Battles often don't last over 3 minutes, as the arenas are pretty small and there's nowhere to hide
While most have been recently nerfed, I still feel like some are more powerful than others... *cough*Claws*cough*
Don't be fooled by the cutsie-ness! But 10/10 would take a shotgun blast to the face again.

Fighties is a multiplayer fighting gam- hahaha no.
It's a fighting party game.
I'm not going to bother appeasing the Lethal League and Smash fans, I do not consider those games fighting games, and in no way does it make those games or this game worse, in fact, I enjoy all of them quite a bit.
Anyways...
It's a fighting party game with fast-paced action and a huge cast of characters that I haven't unlocked yet because I still haven't convinced myself to git gud at the game.
From what I know, there is not enough of a community for you to find any online games currently, I want that to change so I can speak of the multiplayer.
However, the gameplay itself is quite good, the characters are similar enough in gameplay for you to pick one up very fast without needing too much effort, but different enough to make them feel unique and also be hard to completely master, this simplicity comes from the fact that they all move in the same way and are the same size, meaning that no matter which character you pick, you will instantly know what to do after testing it's specials, and more often than not, it involves running and jumping in a bunch of directions and killing your opponent before he kills you.
However, some characters have some balance issues such as the noodle chopsticks kid which is the most known example, and the item system in this game is very un-indicative of what you're going to get, as all power-ups and items are indicated by animals in various colors that are impossible to memorize and are often over-powered as all hell, I am looking at you, shield giraffe...wait...which one is it again?
The sound design is kinda meh, music in this game is almost un-noticeable, it's too quiet in the main menu, and in the fight it's too low to hear, I turned up the music and nothing was really memorable, the sound effects are chip-tune-ish sounds and explosions, nothing new or interesting, it's bland.
The game is graphics are pixel art, now, I often find pixel art really grating, boring and I quietly fucking hate it, for once, I feel like it works well, because the effects are minimalistic and don't take up a lot of space on the screen, they also simplify things a lot, you will know who is who in game very quickly and it's actually kind of cute...I'm fucking with you, the gameplay and stages might be completely fine, but holy shit, the losing animations are just nightmare fuel, they go from cute like the character crying to mild with them being bandaged and having a few bones broken along with a bruised eye to THEM LYING IN A POOL OF BLOOD, DEAD, seriously, how do you go from point A to point Z like that?
So is the game perfect, no, is it good...?
Yes, definitely.
Sure, it has a some flaws however, the gameplay is just fun enough to keep me going, hell, I think I might place a few more hours into it, maybe a hundred or so.
I recommend, if you have the money to buy it (and by god, how would you not have it?) go ahead, dooo it, I need this multiplayer working or I'm going to punch something.

This game is crazy fun, and I've really enjoyed it. However, after one day of playing, I have not been able to open the game up again. The screen is always frozen, but the audio and controls seem to work fine. I have since switched to another computer, and it has the same issues. I've looked for help on the discussion boards to no avail. I'm not sure if this is a personal issue, but I just wanted to say this just in case it potentially occurs to someone else.

A very fun fast paced arena Brawler with a large cast of characters. They fall into either a melee or range style of combat each with their own unique ability, I will say that I found melee characters to be a lot more dominant than most range characters just due to the fact that melee characters can one shot all 3 hearts and most range characters need to hit more than once to kill their target although their is a few exceptions such as the Mime character. Its got online and local coop and can get pretty intense. Gameplay feels much like Duck Game. Their is an level editor so you can make you can create your own levels, its simplistic but it works. Overall its a fun little game and for the price they ask its definitely worth it.

[h1] ***Based on Local Multiplayer Experience *** [/h1]
Play With:Controller; Windows 7, Windows 10
[h1] Pro: [/h1]
Character Galore: This game has such a big roster and each character has some kind of quirk to them that makes them unique and fun to try at least once.
Menu Screen: When you beat the “story” mode with a character, that character will appear in the main menu screen and it’s really cute and gives off a cool vibe that is reflective of how you’re hanging out with your friends.
[h1]Cons:[/h1]
Unbalanced: Because there are so many different characters there are some which are clearly stronger than the others, in few words the game is unbalanced.
Story Mode: The bosses at the end of the story mode have a ton of health and you have barely any, I get it, it’s supposed to be challenging, you dying in 1 hit and having 3 lives to beat the entire game then go through like 3 bosses just doesn't seem worth it. As I found the character collection a cool aspect I ended up grinding the easiest story path to unlock them all.
[h1]General Thoughts:[/h1]
The game is fun, most of the characters kill with one hit so it makes it tense when you and your friend are just dodging each other across the map as the next hit could potentially kill you. The amount of characters and different abilities is a lot of fun to try out and everyone will find their favorite. Overall it’s not a great game, but when friends come over this one of the games that should be played.

Fighties appears to be the first game developed by PillowPigGames. What a solid first development.
Let me start by saying the screenshots dont do it justice. The graphics, once in a game, are surprisingly smooth and polished.
Character design is excellent. Each character has wholly unique abilities and play style, which is an achievement rarely reached with such a large cast of characters. This is the major selling point for me. Each character you unlock will have genuinely unique skillsets/stats that will require a completely different strategy in game.
Many recent 2-D platform based competitive arena games dont add many new concepts, this is not the case with fighties. Combat is original and thoughtful, and they have not fallen into the trap of lazilly knocking off the abilities of other characters to complete their lineup.
The price, when compared to similar games, is very modest considering the content.

Phenomenal game. Think super smash bros but much faster paced. A simple must buy with a great price. Hopefully this game will blow up.
Pros:
Very unique characters.
Developer active and helpful in discussion board.
Unique and balanced maps.
Map creator.
Arcade mode with challenging bosses.
Survival mode.
Skins for characters that can be bought with ingame currency. (no p2w)
No pay to win.
Player base big enough that playing online is easy.
------------------------------------
Cons:
No dedicated servers. (Meaning, the games you are in are hosted by other players, so sometimes it is laggy.
System for unlocking new characters is kinda silly. You can spend thousands of ingame money and not get any characters or get lucky and spend 25 and get new characters. But luckily a lot of the best characters are the ones you start with.

Really fun 1-4 players (online and offline) brawler, the controls are simple and the game is really easy to get into. but still requires skill and fast reflexes to be really good at this game. the game has many characters with different attacks and special attacks so each one plays different than the other, the movement is fluid and the controls are tight and responsive. you can test your skills with bots too in case you have no one to play against.
highly recommended especially with this cheap price.
