OVERVIEW

Indie Rumble is an indie crossover platform fighting game featuring iconic gaming characters. With tons and tons of fully playable characters, stages, and music tracks, Indie Rumble is looking to be the ultimate crossover fighter to represent indie video games.

CHARACTERS

Indie Rumble's goal is to gather the biggest indie gaming icons together into one massive all-out fighter. With characters such as Boyfriend (Friday Night Funkin'), Peppino (Pizza Tower), Captain Viridian (VVVVVV), and tons more, we already feel we've done a fantastic job. Each character features a moveset hand-crafted to fit their character from the source material designed for this fighting game. On top of this, each character receives a home stage and music tracks to boot.

FEATURES

• Easy to Pick Up, Hard to Master - Anyone can pick up a controller and play Indie Rumble. It is easy to understand, but not at the cost of the players who want a more advanced experience. We have balanced a fine line between needing to learn tech and just being able to play.
  
• Movement - Indie Rumble includes features such as Wave Dashing, DI, SHFFLing, and more.
  
• Local & Online Versus - Duke it in 1v1s and more with up to 8 players both locally and online in Indie Rumble.
  
• Rollback Netcode - Indie Rumble features rollback netcode. To us, this was a requirement. We know how important it is to both casuals and players in the FGC to feature rollback netcode. Indie Rumble features the smoothest possible online experience we can provide.
  
• Full Voice Acting - We feel some fighting games lacking voice acting also lack life. Because of this, adding voice acting was essential. Indie Rumble features full voice acting for every character.
  
• Team Battles - We offer a mode to duke it out in 2v2s, 4v4s, and more! There is also a toggle for Team Attack.
  
• Full High-Quality Soundtrack - We have a full, high-quality soundtrack from incredible composers.
  
• Singleplayer Modes - While Indie Rumble was designed and focused around multi-player content, we have a training mode where you can play against computers. We also plan on adding more single-player modes in the future.
  
• Airdashes, Full Movesets, and Parrying - Each fighter in Indie Rumble features full platform fighter movesets. This includes shielding.
  
• New Mechanics - While Indie Rumble keeps it fairly traditional, we do have some new mechanics. We've added something we call wavejumping. A wavejump is when you hold up/jump and then go to move while grounded. This action combination of buttons for wavejumping performs a short hop.
  
• Modding - We allow and encourage full modding support for the Steam Version of Indie Rumble.

HOW TO PLAY

Indie Rumble is a 2D platform fighting game. As you attack your opponent, you build up their percentage. The higher one's percentage, the further they get knocked back. The goal is to launch them off of the stage. Each character has a variety of ~20 unique moves each to utilize. Use a combination of your Attacks, Specials, Strongs, Sheild, Grabbing/Throwing, and Aerials to launch your foes into the blast zone!

GAMEPLAY

Indie Rumble features full platform fighter movesets for each character. This means every single character has 5 aerials, 4 specials, 4 throws, 3 smash attacks, 3 tilts, a jab, a pummel, a dash attack, and a taunt. This means that Indie Rumble has lots of moveset volume and has no reduced movesets. There are also no gimmicks. You get exactly what you see here. Some gimmicks have broken what could have been incredible games.

STAGES

Indie Rumble features a full 40 stages! That's one for each fighter and more! With this, we're able to represent games such as Frog Ball Rerolled, which we otherwise wouldn't have. We incentivize fair and fun gameplay in our stages. Most of the stages were made with competitive play in mind. However, we have a handful of casual stages as well. We think it should always be up to the community to decide which stages are legal and which are illegal for competitive play.

TRAINING MODE

Training is important to becoming the best player. We know some people can sit in training mode for hours on end, practicing combos and labbing their character. The Indie Rumble Training Room is an incredible place to practice movement, pressure, frame data, and more! But that's not all, as the Indie Rumble Training Room also always features a friendly face to cheer you on while you lab your character or practice that sweet, sweet combo! It features a wide variety of characters, such as Dallen (Dallen Clicker Ultimate), Frog (Frog Ball Rerolled), Girlfriend (Friday Night Funkin'), and more! Each time you enter the Indie Rumble Training Room, a random friendly face will appear.

Whether you are a fan of indie titles or platform fighters, this game has something for you. We've taken notes from the platform fighter in the past. This will be the brawl to end them all!
