Jitsu Squad Direct Download
Jitsu Squad is a 4 player co-op beat ‘em up with fast-paced cartoony action and wacky chaotic battles! It has the accessibility and classic brawler mechanics of games like Streets of Rage and Final Fight but with the speed and intensity of fighting games games such as Marvel vs. Capcom II, Dragonball FighterZ & Super Smash Bros. This mode makes it possible to switch between playable characters. You can control the entire Jitsu Squad on a single quest or play with a friend and choose two characters each! The combo possibilities are insane and so satisfying! Collect enough soul orbs and put on your ULTIMATE ARMOR! You become invincible and all your attacks and special moves become stronger than ever for a short period of time. I’ve been watching this game since it got funded and my initial play of it had me mixed. From the start, up until the middle of the second stage, I was floored. (This game has received some GOOD patches and I have not played through the entire game yet since.) The game is clearly crafted with a lot of passion. The art is silly and fun, the concepts are unique, and for fans of 2D fighting games and brawlers, the gameplay starts out immaculate. The references to other games and media really make you feel that this studio has a genuine love for the games that they take inspiration from, and the first half of this game blows that expectation wide open and makes for an extremely enjoyable and deep experience.
The pure amount of THINGS on the screen can sometimes, but less often than on release take a crisp overall combat system and begin overloading the player with information. And this is from the perspective of someone who hasn’t yet played the chaos that must be 2-4 player co-op. Some good looking changes have been made since writing this, though, so I will try it again. Minor inconsistencies in enemy hitboxes and objects pushing each other around caused situations where parries that feel they should have hit can get you stuffed. This game is now, after some changes, an overall pretty great beat-em-up, a hard genre to master. Right now, my biggest complaint is that it isn’t longer. I’d love a boss rush or survival type mode here to dig deep into. The difficulty of this game on the highest difficulty is aa pretty daunting task still. Some will love it, some won’t. Personally my only gripe with it is that armored enemies in a beat-em-up feel weird to me, and I love the impact of hitting stuff in the game so much I might prefer to always play on normal so that the enemies aren’t as sturdy to hit-stun.
Jitsu Squad Pre-Installed:
I saw this randomly in my discovery queue and it looked interesting. Not “I need to buy this now” interesting, but interesting. I then read the game info and saw it had a tag system, supers, alternate modes … I bought it on a whim. Damn am I glad I did. I’m in my 40’s and grew up on Saturday morning cartoons, Kung Fu movies, beat em up games. Jitsu Squad hits all of these notes, but here’s the thing; the gameplay and controls are GREAT. This isn’t a quick nostalgia cash in, they clearly put a lot of love and effort into how this plays and pays off. The combat systems in this game get deeper and deeper as you unlock moves and it really feels like a blend of a tag fighter and a beat em up once you have everything. There are some flaws I’d like to see addressed … such as if you start a game in co-op but don’t finish it with your teammate you can’t continue solo, you have to start a new game. Also the game is short, my cousin and I have completed it twice in 3 hours, and doesn’t have any alternate branching paths or anything.
