About Divekick

About this game

Divekick is the world’s first two-button fighting game. It distils the essence of the fighting game genre into just two buttons with no d-pad directional movement. Divekick’s focused gameplay demonstrates how much depth a single move actually has, and introduces (or reinforces) skills fundamental to the genre: mind games, spacing, timing, and quick reactions.

At Iron Galaxy, we love fighting games. To the average fan, most of what makes them fun are hidden behind a never-ending series of input combinations that they have to memorize. That’s why Divekick has just two buttons: Dive (into the air) makes your character jump straight up. Kick causes your character to fly foot first at a downward angle. If you press Kick on the ground, you can jump away from your opponent. Utilizing these moves, the first hit will win the round, and the player that wins five rounds first wins the game. It’s pure adrenaline, awareness, and outsmarting your enemy. It’s a fighting game deconstructed into its purest form.

Great fighting game. Great sense of humor, great netcode. Unfortunately doesn't have a lobby system but absolutely worth playing.

This is a great concept. Absolutely love the idea. It's a lot of fun, playing this high stakes one hit KO game of divekicking your opponent. But it's unfortunately just not fun for all that long. Divekick is excellent for a few minutes at a time but finishing even one character campaign in a single sitting is absolutely exhausting and will have you wishing that it'd just end already. It's fun, it can be a good time, but the core experience just doesn't have staying power. I still think you should play it because there's honestly nothing like it on the market. But be aware of the pitfalls
