Crumple Rumble

How to Play

Crumple Rumble is a fast, silly fighting game drawn entirely on lined notebook pages. Choose from five doodle fighters and step into a scribbled arena where punches, kicks and blocks decide every bout. Linking attacks together creates combos, and grabbing a pencil, staff or pipe lying around adds extra reach. Landing hits fills a power bar that unlocks a special move when it is full. Once your rival is dizzy, the announcer calls for the finish, and your final blow decides how they leave the page, whether flattened, folded into a paper plane, puffed up like a balloon or simply rubbed out, among many other daft endings. The Arcade mode pits you against four rivals and a boss, a Daily Challenge adds a new twist each day, and Survival tests how long you can last. Two players can also battle on one keyboard.

Controls

On a keyboard, move with A and D, jump with W, punch with J, kick with K, block with L, dash with Shift, use a special with I and pause with P. On touch screens, drag the stick to move, flick up to jump, tap Attack, hold Block and tap Super. In two player mode, Player 1 uses A, D, W, S, F, G, H and Left Shift, while Player 2 uses the arrows, K, L and Right Shift.

Tips

1. Block first and counter when your rival's combo ends.
2. Pick up weapons early for extra reach in tight fights.
3. Save the special move for when your rival is nearly dizzy.
