Sclash

One slash, one death

Sclash is a plug’n play samurai fighting game full of tension where one hit means death.

Play as an experimented samurai in a game easy to take in hand for everyone. Breathe and take time to anticipate your next moves, and your enemy’s ones, in large beautiful painted maps.
Manage your stamina well to land a deadly hit to your opponent and win the round.

Sclash also possesses a solo story mode where the player will have to explore the world and fight bosses. I could design it, and write the scenario and dialogues.
