About This Game

EVERYTHING IS SET FOR CHAOS!

Thumps and Blows is a comical 2D fighting game featuring a cast of wild and unique stickmen.

Strike hard or use your energy to unleash ridiculous skills and powerful moves. Beat your friends in crazy local 1v1 battles, or enjoy the Arcade Mode with a wild story starring Widijou & company.

The game features easy-to-learn controls with deep gameplay, so everyone can join the chaos!

  • Pro tip: The best strategy is to hit and not get hit. You’re welcome!

All styles are welcome!

Don't be shy-smash your rivals with everything you've got. Then you can start playing Thumps & Blows.

Most of the time, you will use basic attacks to deal damage and do combos. But once you accumulate enough energy, you can use some absurd powerful special techniques! Each character has their own, and they can be anything! Jumping like a monkey, firing a fart like a missile, applying sunscreen, performing a really manly counterattack…

You can also perform secondary actions, like dodging, floating in the air, charging a jump… In exchange for a bit of energy.

In conclusion, each character has plenty of tools and tricks, and managing your energy properly is the key to victory.

  • Pro tip: Unplug your opponent's controller without them noticing to gain an advantage. You're welcome!

Enjoy the Arcade Mode

Widijou's Short Films team makes movies… that never succeed! To make a living, they take on shady works for the mayor and, in return, receive grants from the Stick City council.

That's why they don’t hesitate when they are told to free the city from a colourful clone plague… of themselves! Meanwhile, other well known people from Stick City begin investigating the phenomenon.

They have no choice but to fight their way through to discover the mystery: Who’s behind this? And… why?

Seriously, why? It seems like a really stupid plan.

Let's start kicking asses!

In summary:

  • Everything is allowed in these crazy fights

  • Play as 10 unique stickmen (for better or worse)

  • Create wild combos and use hilarious techniques

  • Fight in multiplayer or enjoy the story mode!

  • Experience the misfortunes of the Widijou's Short Films team

  • Pixel art style (lol) with handmade animations (lmao)

Thumps & Blows is at least twice as fun in company. We recommend playing a few matches before choosing a main character.
