Slice, Dice & Rice

This one is for players who are tired of endless combos and just want to find an opening and strike. The mood is grim and focused: every fight feels like a short duel where each step counts. What you'll like: - Early on, your time goes to getting a feel for the rhythm: canceling attacks, faking openings and parrying quickly become second nature. - Controls are simple, but the depth of combat is still there: the winner is not the one who remembers more moves, but the one who reads the opponent better. - Wounds pile up and every scratch noticeably slows your movement, so rounds stay tense right up to the last second. - Eight fighters with different styles, from a fast monk to a warrior with a giant sword, give you plenty of reasons to try several approaches. After payment you get a Slice, Dice & Rice activation key for Steam in the Global region. The key appears right on the order page on the site, where you can copy it and activate it in the Steam client. Slice Dice & Rice is an indie fighting game with no health bars. Inspired by Bushido Blade, it revolves around the idea of finding an opening in opponents defense and ending the round with a single, clean hit. Gone are the tedious hit points - each scratch impairs your movement, every wound might be your last. Gameplay Our goal was to make fighting games accessible to anyone. An intuitive set of basic abilities allowed us to remove the need for memorizing inputs and move-lists, while retaining the complexity. Moves can be canceled to feint an attack, hits can be parried or dodged, and they can clash with one another. This creates a mind-game heavy gameplay, one that mimics real samurai showdowns Characters and Stages You can play as one of 8 characters, all with their own stories and unique fighting styles. Game’s cast offers many variations of gameplay, from a swift monk using only his fists in battle, to a muscular lady with a giant sword that compensates speed and mobility with endurance during her attacks. Fights take place in alternative version of Japanese underworld and features 6 unique stages with hand-drawn textures.
