What is MerFight?

MerFight is a fast-paced fighting game that provides a wide variety of tools for player expression. Currently being developed by one of the leads behind Battle High, MerFight is available now for free on itch.io and GameJolt while in open alpha. There are plans to release through Steam Early Access some time in 2021. Features include...

• 12 playable characters inspired by various sea life
• Challenge combos and defense modes
• Online multiplayer and 8 player lobbies
• A "flexible" input system that works with simplified inputs while rewarding those who can perform more standard ones

Note, MerFight is still in development; many aspects are still unfinished.

You can find out more through the Mattrified Games discord.
