Is it strange that after seeing this, I just want to watch a good kung-fu movie?

Silver Dollar Games can die a slow and painful death.

"But it's a good game!"

Yeah, after FORTY-ONE awful attempts, something has to stick.

I would like to play One FInger Death Punch if the controls didn't heavily rely on the mouse.

I'd buy this on my phone if it was there. Not sure I'd play it on my PC though.

Why is the menu art pretty decent, then the in-game art so-so, and the map art god-awful? I mean, besides the fact that it's Silver Dollar Games. Or maybe I just answered my own question.

How is there not a Star Wars lightsaber duel game in this vein? Epic music, simple combat, epic fight scenes. This looks really cool for how simple it might be.

SO many people bitching about the controls. First of all, you can use either mouse or left/right key or A/D to play. ALso you dont want to play this on Vita or mobile, because the input lagg in basically non-existent in this form and thats a key to this game being good. I can’t imagine how frustrating and not fun this would be on portable devices.

No kidding huh? This is actually a really good and fun game. I just wish it had more options. I'd like to turn up the music of the game. It's so good and man it is SO fun being in the zone in this game.

Yeah, the left & right arrow keys also work, by default.

Started the quick look and ended up buying the game about five minutes in. My mouse is screaming and my fingers hurt, but I'm enjoying it immensely.

I think this might be the gif they were talking about? Although... this doesn't exactly loop... anyway, this is the first thing I thought of.

I remember that being the most amazing thing I've even seen back then. Still is actually.

There was a version of it that didn't include the door part at the beginning, or anything with the anime-style summoning action/cuts followed by nuclear bomb explosion. It looped right after the large "afterimage" style stick figure appeared, and then he just went back into the intro jumping spin thing.

@lurkero: The game is also avaible on Xbox 360 marketplace for a dollar. It most likely uses the triggers as the controls. I would suppose that this game has controller support on Steam but unsure of that.

I haven't played it on 360, but I would guess it uses the shoulder buttons at the very least. Triggers are doubtful. At least, if I made this game I wouldn't put it on the triggers. Takes way to long to press those.
