Spectacular Action, Non-Stop Drama, and… A Chicken?!
From the developers of ScourgeBringer and NeuroVoider comes Knuckle Paradise—a precise and juicy hand-drawn spectacle fighter! Inspired by classic Hong Kong action comedies and character action games (you know Dante and Bayo, right?): Knuckle Paradise combat is fast, it’s furious, it’s combo-based, and it’s so aerial you’ll send Jane—and Jane’s enemies—flying!
Play as Jane, a retired boxer who finds herself stranded on an abandoned amusement park island! Has she been abducted?! It’s worse than that: she’s been forced into an underground martial arts tournament taking place within the park!
It won’t take long for Jane to team up with Cocotte, a warrior princess chicken. Together, the duo will battle their way through the mysteries of the island, encountering and defeating powerful opponents along the way.
Use Cocotte’s special abilities to overpower your opponents in unexpected ways. Combat is satisfyingly punchy and immediately fun… while remaining accessible for many skill levels.

Do you want to stick to brawling and not get distracted? Go for it! The park is full of hand-animated combatants who are all cruising for a bruising, plus you’re sure to run into some real trophy-seeking challengers in their big, open, boss-room-like areas.
