It is a mobile game. I can't do the KO part. I finish the tutorial, but when I have to do it again, I hit buttons as needed, and nothing happens.

♥♥♥♥♥♥ videos don't show what you actually do. You press left when the enemy on the left goes to attack to counter, you press up when the one on top goes to attack. Then if they do a special attack you can just twirl the left stick aggressively in a circle to cover ALL angles since I never ran into a penalty for doing that You hold X (attack) when they block to widdle their block down You time your attack to a rhythm to get a damage bonus and as long as you don't get hit you will get to do a special attack called a KO but it doesn't actually KO so that's annoying. Each level has special goals but they're usually pretty easy... unless they want you to miss perfect hits and finsih with normal hits lol The boss battles were kind of boring but they got pretty challenging honestly. The bosses end up pretty damn fast. But the hardest fight was when I put a rabbit to zero and he became invulnerable to counters and damage so he just beat the piss out of me slowly. Normal bug things. Worth a buck. Might be good for a short trip on the steam deck

Text Review: Pros: -Great, cartoony, cel shaded visuals (Rodents and stereotypic Dutchness, If it goes darker and less stimulating later on) -Great music (70s Procedural cop show funk, not many tracks though) with lovely brutal sound design that satisfies -Delightfully simple clicking and swiping action (Fun but singular and repetitive... essentially a ported mobile game) -Scooter and boss sections are nice changes of pace if the mechanics are less tight Maybes: -No story but it's based around visual gags -Not ambitious or groundbreaking, just some simple fun Cons: -Optional objectives are largely busy work and sometimes contradictory Video Review: https://youtu.be/iLKOmO9ea3w

i really felt bad refunding this one since the ame itself has so a lot of charm. but its just a glorified mobile game you waste a couple minutes on the bus with, its super repetetive with you just clicking and sometimes swiping on enemies with every level being pretty much the same. it even has the classic mobile phone game tropes with a world map, a little store (NO MICROTRANSACTIONS THO!!) etc. really a wasted potential putting this one on steam and not google play.

Not my cup of tea, it's a beat em up with rhytm elements, It's more belongs to the google store than steam. (Since it always holds your hands like a mobile app as well.)
