Indie Fighting Game Divekick To Hit PS3/Vita/PC
Divekick may have started out as a parody of the genre, but it looks like some fighting fans are taking it plenty seriously.
The game has procured a publisher – Iron Galaxy Studios – and will come out on PS3, PC, and Vita this spring.
Divekick features two-button controls, an old-school look, and precision timing, and it received fanfare at the Ultimate Fighting Game Tournament 8 last year.
"Divekick is good at two things: teaching some of the basics of fighting game to players of any skill, and ending friendships," says One True Game Studios' Adam Heart. "I partnered with Iron Galaxy because I know they love these things as much as I do. They also gave me large burlap sacks filled with cash, which certainly didn’t hurt. This game was made by the community, for the community, to completely tear apart the community."
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
