The square button unleashes a kick, according to the pause menu, but it couldn’t stomp on an ant wearing stilts and sporting a top hat. If you want to punch your opponent, it’s sloppy, sluggish and inaccurate. I’d honestly have to say that it’s one of the worst examples of fighting mechanics I’ve ever experienced. If you haven’t already played it, let me give you the skinny and tell you that Gang Beasts is ludicrous. Gang Beasts has been doing the circuit for five years now but has an imminent physical release on December 6th. Gang Beasts is a beat ’em up published by Double Fine – those who dished out the Day of the Tentacle remasters (and others), as well as their own IPs – Psychonauts, and one of their latest currently on my playlist, Rad. What the hell is this? First off I misunderstood the name of the title and was pleased to find out I was wrong in thinking this was something else.
