Swordy is a local party brawler that offers chaotic, physics-based action. In this game, players must master various weapons of war, utilizing momentum and timing to survive in a world built on the remnants of a ruined empire. The game features an unconventional twin-stick control scheme, allowing players to directly control their character and weapon with analogue sticks and triggers. This setup enables precise timing for swings, throws, and stabs, making the gameplay easy to pick up but challenging to master.
