MEND Arcade Battle is a turn-based RPG inspired by Fighting Game core mechanics. Players must tackle the Fighting Game staple challenge known as Arcade Mode with a Turn-based RPG twist! Choose your character and follow their path to defeating the final boss awaiting them at the end. Depending on the selected character, a different final boss will be encountered!
MEND Arcade Battle offers:
• Eight unique fighters to choose from, each with their own fighting styles and personalities
• Eight different Arcade ladders with unique final bosses
• Customizable move-sets through the Assist System
• A quick, simple and non-intrusive tutorial that can be revisited at anytime
• Unlockables that will enhance future playthroughs
• Short quips before fights that offer an abridged version of the MEND storyline
• A bonus game mode that provides a glance at a future MEND project
GAMEPLAY
• Simple to learn, yet hard to master!
• Every turn, the player decides on a type of guard to use, an assist to call in, and also an attack to unleash. Devastate your foes with EX and SUPER moves!
• Guarding and Assists are optional and both use up their own resource gauges.
• At the end of every turn, your character comments on how they perceive their foe’s stance. The player must interpret this information and adapt their
strategies accordingly.
• No long animations, cut scenes, or loading screens! Simple and direct User Interface!
STORY
MEND Arcade Battle is a video game take of my story MEND. Read the non-abridged version for free on the online writing website Wattpad! I go by Enntropy on that platform, and the story title is MEND.
In-game, the quips between characters before fights offer a small look into the world of MEND. Try your best to unlock the in-game bonus mode for a glimpse into MEND’s story mode in video game form!
Difficulty and Game Length
All selectable characters are unlocked from the beginning, so no needless grinding for the basics! Veteran fighting game and Turn-based RPG fans alike can look forward to seeing if they have what it takes to predict their opponent’s every move. The A.I. opponents all have their own strengths and weaknesses and will put a player’s skill and adaptability to the test. Every route is about forty minutes long so expect at least four hours of gameplay from the Arcade game mode.
