About the Game

Experience fighting game mechanics from a whole new perspective in musi Utale, the first Toki Pona fighting game! Mix up your opponents with left, right, and even backwards attacks instead of highs and lows. With 8 characters each touting their own unique play styles and personalities, peek into the world of ma Utale and its inhabitants through intense fights and complex gameplay mechanics. Spacing against your opponents takes on a whole new angle with the top-down perspective, where the y-axis, x-axis, and character rotation all play a part in decision-making.

Features:

  • Style on your opponents with a unique meter system that utilizes the top-down nature of the game

  • Battle with 5 attack buttons and 26 unique moves on each of the 7 characters to play

  • Play online against friends far away with rollback netcode for smooth matches

  • Lab out combos and mixups with training mode and combo trials

  • Save replays of your matches and use replay takeover to practice responding to your opponents at your own pace

Both Toki Pona and English are available as language options in-game
