The game is a one-on-one fighting game viewed from the side. Players control a single combat robot and battle computer-controlled opponents in staged tournament matches. Fights revolve around light and heavy attacks, jumping, guarding, and special moves. Matches reward spacing, timing, and punishing enemy recovery rather than constant aggression. Progress is handled through a tournament-style set of encounters that must be cleared to advance.
Electrocorp Robot
The player-controlled combat robot representing the human side in the tournament. It battles a series of AI opponents across the campaign.
Play patiently and learn each opponent's range and startup frames. Guard first, then counter when an enemy attack whiffs or ends with recovery. Staying at mid-range usually gives the safest openings for retaliation, and overcommitting often leads to being cornered. If you get pressured, reset spacing instead of trading hits.
