Tech the grab or die!

From the creator of Schwarzerblitz and Motionsickness, here comes a new, fast paced, explosive, 1v1 fighting game, where every grab is lethal.


The year is 2067. The "Second Black Lightning" is just a memory, and the world has moved on. One extreme sport has taken hold: Exploding Judo!

Fought between two opponents on a conveniently prepared minefield, this discipline is as lethal as the name suggest, making those who survive more than one tourney undisputed celebrities.

People from all walks of life have decided to face the challenge and risk their lives to become heroes, pay their debts or get revenge.

Motivations aren't important, though: the judgment of the explosion has always the last word.

It's judo until it isn't

Grabs are the way, but this doesn't mean one cannot fight dirty! Each character has a super move at their disposal, be it an invincible grab, a counter attack or a full screen pew pew laser, that immediately seals the match.


Strive for victory

Use strikes to create grab opportunities, roll around the stage to position yourself, grab at the right moment to seal the deal. No block, no rest, only movement, fundamentals and a huge dose of dirt. Do you have what it takes to become the master of Exploding Judo?

Current development status

The game is in a VERY early stage and includes:

  • six standard characters plus three unlockable boss characters and an annoying gun-headed goon that cannot beat the champ even if he tries his best;
  • arcade mode, survival mode and time attack mode
  • seven stages plus a green screen stage for photobashing shenanigans;
  • local versus;
  • tutorial and training mode;
  • a psychopatic dabbing killer robot reinstalled into a bunny droid body;
  • a giant kaiju robot with plasma chainsaws and a full screen laser

This game is not planned to have netcode added anytime soon. Most of the updates will focus on finalizing arcade mode and some unlockables (e.g. costumes)


System requirements

Windows 7 or above. The game was tested with an Intel integrated graphic card and worked fine on a selection of low-end machines.


Credits

A full list of credits is provided in-game.

Important notes (before you play)

  • the game requires Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 redistributable. Be sure to download and install it before playing the game!
  • the game requires also Microsoft Directx9 or higher. If you have Directx12 or higher, you could experience a black-screen bug. In case of doubt, PLEASE download and install the redistributable from this official link.
  • for any questions not directly covered in the F.A.Q./Readme file, please contact me as soon as possible - possibly, before rating this game.

FAQ and Troubleshooting

A troubleshooting guide is available in the game files (see the README file). Alternatively, you can follow the same steps as for Schwarzerblitz (hosted at this link), since the games runs on a modified version of the same engine.
