Ragdoll Hit Stickman

A melee fighting game with no attack animations in the conventional sense. Your stickman is a ragdoll, and a strike is a swing of an actual limb with actual momentum — so a hit delivered while you are moving toward the opponent does far more than one thrown from standing, and winning is largely about arriving with speed. The arenas are built to be used. Spikes, edges, moving parts and hard walls all do more damage than your fists, which makes the correct strategy to throw your opponent toward them rather than to wear them down directly. That also means a fight can end in one exchange if you have positioned yourself well, and it frequently does, which keeps the rounds short and the stakes immediate. There is a progression of arenas and opponents, each with its own hazard arrangement, so the thing you learn is not a combo but which part of a given room kills fastest. Controls are simple — move, jump, swing — and the depth is entirely in the physics. It plays on touch and keyboard, runs on anything, and is over quickly whichever way it goes.
