Rising to prominence through the American fighting game community, Divekick is an indie fighting game that distills the controls into two simple buttons, requiring clever strategy as players try to score the first hit with their divekick attack!
Given the simplicity of the game play I find it hard to stick to just one person. I like mixing it up even if I'm doing well with a certain character. I tend to do the same for most fighting games I play. At the same time I haven't gotten a lot of time to play.
No surprises that Kick seems to be the favorite. No votes for Stream and Jefailey, I shall go play as them immediately! I do like Jefailey's ever expanding head.
If i'm playing ranked (so serious!) then I play as either Kick, Markman or Shoals but if it's just in a lobby or with friends then I'll just rotate characters out to keep things fresh. I do with there were more options for online though. I would like to make a lobby where multiple people could join, watch and play winner like pretty much every other fighting game.
I tend to pick characters based on what I find appealing about the character design rather than playstyle. With that said I've only played with a buddy for about 2 hours but after trying the entire roster I forced myself to play as S-Kill. Hated the double jump at first but eventually learned to love it and of course, I don't regret it. When I was done I just wanted more. Controlling S-Kill is surprisingly fun. Like fun in the way that I want to just be moving around. Like, just teleporting around and the different things you can do with those two jumps.
If it's ranked I play as Mr. N since I feel I have the best chance of winning with him, or on rare occasions I'll switch to Dive just 'cause.
In unranked I only play as Kenny. He's too fun. I don't know how many people have tried this, but you can use his air special almost like a makeshift Mr. N float and trick people into getting below you.
No surprises that Kick seems to be the favorite. No votes for Stream and Jefailey, I shall go play as them immediately! I do like Jefailey's ever expanding head.
