What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“As a fighting game, game balance and community involvement is absolutely vital. To ensure that the release of musi Utale is in the best state possible, I would like to involve the community as soon as possible in the process to address any problems with game balance and bugs.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“musi Utale will likely be in Early Access for 2-6 months depending on player feedback on the state of the game. If feedback is largely positive, it will release quickly, but feedback that requires large code reworks will increase the development time before the game is ready to release fully.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version is planned to have 1 additional character for a total of 8 overall. Additionally, more in-depth tutorials for more complex game mechanics are planned as well as improving the stability of online play. Training mode is also planned to have more features added as well.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current version of musi Utale is locally playable with some game-crashing bugs that may occur. Some training mode features and the in-game tutorial does not explain every mechanic. The online also has some stability issues that should be improved with feedback from players.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The game will remain completely free for both the Early Access stage and its full release.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Various channels for player feedback will be welcome for receiving player feedback. Steam reviews will be checked regularly, a Discord server for the game will be released soon to the public, and official social media accounts for musi Utale will be checked regularly for feedback. If deemed useful, an in-game optional link to a survey may be added in an update.”

About This 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
