One Finger Death Punch

One Finger Death Punch is a 2d beat em up/rhytmn game. It looks like one of those stickmen Newground games that were popular in the early 00's.

In the game you are given a huge set of stages in which you must defeat waves of incoming enemies. There are special rules for each stage, like limiting the weapon you can use or only counting certain types of kills. The game is controllable though only two buttons, attack left or attack right, but its quite deep in its simplicity since you will get punished if you are caught attacking the wrong side.

That said, it still manages to be more deep and satisfying than 99% of the beat em ups out there that arent made by either Capcom or Platinum. It feels incredible good to play, not only because the animations are awesome, but because the impacts are felt. The game slowly increases in difficulty throughout the campaign, and by the end you will be pulling off some really impressive reflexes. Its incredibly addictive as well, due to the short nature of the stages (1-2 min tops each) and also as you keep for ways to challenge and improve yourself. It took me 5 hours to beat the campaign, which unlocks a higher difficulty mode.

There is no story whatsoever, and its very obviously a game made on a very limited budget.

I had a blast with this game, and i fully recommend it to fans of action games
