Pocket Rumble Early Access 0.2.3

Published 2016-02-02

I heard about this game few days ago and I noticed it appeared on Steam's Early Access. I didn't try online mode.

What I read, this was Kickstarter project in 2014. It is inspired by fighting games you could find on NeoGeo Pocket handheld console. Never owned or seen that console, but I've heard it is quite awesome machine.

Pocket Rumble has simple controls. You have two attack buttons and a basic motions (right, left, up, down). Motions are simplified, for example when you press down+forward, you can do fireball. I don't know exact details of the fighting mechanics, but I think there may be some hidden depth.

I think I may enjoy this quite a lot. I don't plan to play this that much, I may get tired of the game before it is even released :)
