Early Access scheduled to release on February 13, 2024. A physics-based arena crab-fighting game, early access is coming to Steam.

Crab battles, more epic than ever before!Armor-clad humans mount immortal crabs in the world’s newest combat sport! Select a weapon loadout (one weapon for each claw, of course!), assume an advantageous fighting stance, and unleash crab-fueled chaos on opponents.

Select from 20+ crabs with distinct attributes like weight, agility, grip strength, toughness and more!
Dual-wield 70+ weapons, from basic swords, shields and projectile cannons to flaming spears, beam sabers, boxing gloves, and yo-yos
Equip 40+ special passive and active abilities, such as auto-parrying, increased weapon durability, or illumination of nearby weapons
Duke it out across multiple arena types like wide open desert landscapes, villages full of homes, floating sky platforms (don’t fall off!), basketball courts, and more.
Use obstacles to your advantage - knock enemies into moving trains!Physics-Based BattlesHow do you defeat an immortal crab? Destroy its pride. Rack up damage against enemies to increase knockback power, then expose the enemy crab’s white underbelly by flipping them on their backs. Hold them down for a 3-count to achieve a wrestling-style victory.

Each weapon has different attributes. Sharp-edged weapons like swords and spears deal more damage, while blunt-force objects like baseball bats deal more knockback.Simple and Advanced ControlsOpt for simplified arcade style controls, or embrace the physics-based mayhem with dual-stick controlled claws like in the original Fight Crab. Left and right stick movements are matched on-screen with equivalent swings and thrusts in every direction (Fight Crab veterans, rejoice!)Crab GaugeAny damage received fills up the Crab Gauge. Fill it up and unleash tide-turning attacks including summoning assist animals, devastating long-range laser eyes, and much more!Career Mode - Scuttle Towards Greatness, Fame and FortuneIn Career mode, nurture and train a crab into a ferocious fighter. Imitation crab won’t survive this gauntlet - get in the gym to level up, and fight for justice (and popularity) in multiple event modes. Defeat evil crabs, mischievous monsters, or put a stop to wild farm tractors with a mind of their own.Online Mode - Fight for the title of King CrabFace off in both casual and ranked matches, and create battle rooms with up to 5-player lobby waiting support.Message from the DeveloperIt's been 3 years since Fight Crab, and neither physics-based combat nor playable crabs are all that surprising to see in video games nowadays.

So this time, other than just trying to create something entirely novel, I'm aiming for a game that can be enjoyed forever.

The core concept is to "flip the opponent upside down", so I've prepared as many weapons, spells, and skills I could think of to achieve that.

And then I created an infinitely replayable singleplayer mode where players could earn them.

Now you can mess around with friends in room matches, or be super competitive in ranked matches, or treat it as a singleplayer game and aim for a new personal high score.

If you don't have any plans, you can queue for an online match while raising crabs in Career Mode at the same time. Then you could use your raised crabs to clear challenges. I believe that would make for a wonderful crab life.

And in order to make this game one that can be enjoyed forever, I would like to hear everyone's thoughts and suggestions during Early Access, so please send us your feedback!
