About the Game

Animation VERSUS is a new fighting game featuring your favorite stick figure characters from animator Alan Becker! For the first time ever, the hit web series Animator vs. Animation is being adapted into a full-fledged action game. It's an exciting package for fighting game fans and newcomers alike, combining elements from across the genre with brand-new ideas unique to this title - plus beautiful pixel animation.

This isn't just a fighting game - it's also a robust single-player adventure built for players of any skill level! Explore the world of Internet Space in a fully-fledged Story Mode with animated cutscenes, or test your skills in a randomly-generated Roguelite challenge. Either way, you can brave these dangers either solo or with a friend in co-op play!

No matter which mode you try first, the starting roster of 12 unique playable characters will give you plenty of room to find a favorite playstyle. Whether it's brawling up-close with animal spirit powers, grappling around the stage with a fishing rod, attacking with computer code from a safe distance, or just plain awesome laser-vision and fire-blast powers, there's someone here for every kind of player.

Key Features:

  • VS Mode - local or online with rollback netcode

  • Team or free-for-all matches - up to 4 players

  • Story Mode - action-platforming adventure with breathtaking animation

  • Roguelite - randomly-generated challenge gauntlet
