A downloadable game for Windows

Soul Skirmish is an asymmetric multiplayer top-down shooter. In it’s current form, it has a fairly minimalist aesthetic.

One player at a time takes control of the crown. They then aim and rain fire on the remaining players using using the four weapon types: SHOT, BLAST, BEAM, and ZONE.

The crowned player can also deploy and trigger bombs which also change depending on the weapon type.

The attacking player will move faster within a defensive players’ soul shield, but won't be able to initiate attacks. The defensive players will still have their work cut out for them though, only being able to take 3 hits.

Once the time limit is up however, the crowned player will be expelled, and a new player can rise up to take their place. The last one standing wins!


Requires at least 1 controller, preferably 2. Keyboard control is possible but not recommended.
