Swipe Fight is a contiguous local multiplayer battle for tablets - available on the two most popular mobile operating systems. In this game players collect powerups to combat each other. Using a swiping motion with their finger a player throws powerups at the opposing player. The goal of the game is to cause the opposing player to lose all their lives. That goal can be accomplished by either draining all the opponent’s bases or by having certain powerups strike the opposing player’s finger. There are 7 different powerups in the game.
--Rules
A player throws a powerup by holding finger A on the desired powerup on the powerup bar and using finger B they swipe to throw/use the powerup.
It is recommended that each player can ONLY have 1 finger touching the field of play at a time and ONLY 1 other finger on the powerup bar. The game has been balanced according to these restrictions. However, the game does not actively enforce this so you can make up your own finger limit rule if you wish.
If your finger gets hit by a powerup you instantly lose a life. If a base completely degrades you will also lose a life.
--Powerups
Knife: The only powerup that cannot be collected, instead it is constantly regenerating the quantity available. If a players finger gets hit by this powerup the player loses a life.
Triblade: This powerup is large and slow moving. If a players finger gets hit by this powerup the player loses a life.
