Divekick is the world's first two-button fighting game. It distills the essence of the fighting game genre into just two buttons with no d-pad directional movement. Divekick's focused gameplay demonstrates how much depth a single move actually has, and introduces (or reinforces) skills fundamental to the genre: mind games, spacing, timing, and quick reactions.
At Iron Galaxy we love fighting games. To the average fan, most of what makes them fun is hidden behind a never-ending series of input combinations that they have to memorize. That's why Divekick has just two buttons: Dive (into the air) makes your character jump straight up. Kick causes your character to fly foot first at a downward angle. If you press Kick on the ground, you can jump away from your opponent. Utilizing these moves, the first hit will win the round, and the player that wins five rounds first wins the game. It's pure adrenaline, awareness, and outsmarting your enemy. It's a fighting game deconstructed into its purest form.

IndieCade 2013
Divekick has been selected for the IndieCade 2013 Festival which takes place from 10/3 - 10/6 in Los Angeles!
Divekick is a fighting game with a twist. Each player only has two buttons. The buttons can be used to dive and kick. Like other fighting games there are various different characters all with different moves. Characters are K.O.-ed by a single hit so discretion is required. The game features thirteen characters and a story mode for each. Online players can play both in ranked and unranked matches.
A later update adds a new character called Johnny Gat (from the Saints Row series), bringing the total characters to fourteen, and a new stage called Da Beech. Next to bug fixes and changes to the fighting systems, it adds a traditional menu mode, blind selection for the ranked play, and over 180 new Tips from Uncle Sensei. It also contains a vast amount of balance changes for each character. This update, called Addition Edition, is provided for free to all owners for all available platforms. It also changes the game's title. The Xbox One and PlayStation 4 version were launched as that edition upon release.
