6 itemsAbout the Game
The year is 2024, and humanity has achieved world peace through the single greatest activity ever invented: pillow fighting.
Pillow Champ is a bold new take on the fighting game genre, calling back to classics like Street Fighter 2 with punchy 2.5D action, a range of game modes, and an irreverent, fluffy setting. Enter the Pillow Champ tournament, a joyful series of events and challenges that's altered society itself. Unravel the mystery of the Pillow Knights, an organization of ninjas who want to drag pillow fighting back into the world of the dark. Clean a car entirely using acrobatic pillow attacks, as our ancestors always intended.
This is a deconstruction of fisticuffs video games. Replacing a blade with a pillow, blood with feathers, suffering with pleasure, grunts with laughter, this isn't the same games you grew up with, but it kind-of-sort-of-is, too.
Welcome to Pillow Champ, kid. Now go fluff it out.
