Stick Clash
About Stick Clash
Stick Clash is a stickman fighting game packed with kung fu action: thirty hand-built levels, six arenas and a boss waiting at the end of every world. You control a white stick fighter with a red headband and take on waves of enemies that walk in from both sides of the screen. Tap punch again and again to chain a jab, a cross and a spinning kick that knocks enemies flat; jump, double jump and dive in with a flying kick; and when your blue energy bar is full, let off a special shockwave that throws everyone around you to the floor. Every enemy fights differently. Grunts and brawlers trade punches, ninjas dash across the screen with flying kicks, throwers keep their distance and hurl shurikens, brutes shrug off small hits and smash the ground so hard that shockwaves race along the floor, swordsmen out-reach your fists, and shield carriers block everything from the front until you jump over them and strike from behind. Weapons wait in many levels: grab a sword, a bo staff or a big hammer for extra reach and power until it breaks. The bosses are the real test, from the heavy hitter Iron Fist and the teleporting Shadow to the Stone Giant, the Twin Blades, the fiery Inferno and the Grand Master himself. Win a level with plenty of health left to earn three stars, collect coins and spend them on upgrades to health, power and special energy. Stick Clash plays free in your browser with a keyboard or the large on-screen buttons on a phone or tablet, and your stars, coins and upgrades are saved automatically.
How to play
Move with the arrow keys or A and D, jump with Up, W or Space (press again in the air to double jump) and punch with J or Z. Keep tapping to chain a three-hit combo that ends in a knock-down kick. Punch in mid-air for a flying kick. When the blue energy bar is full, press K or X for a special shockwave. On a phone, use the on-screen buttons. Clear every wave to win the level; finishing with more health earns more stars. Jump over ground shockwaves, and hit shield carriers from behind.
Questions
How many levels are there?īŧ
Thirty levels in six arenas: the Dojo, the Rooftops, the Street, the Bamboo Forest, the Volcano and the Sky Temple, with a boss fight at the end of each arena.
How do I beat enemies with shields?īŧ
Shields block normal punches from the front. Jump over the shield carrier and hit them from behind while they turn around, or use a heavy attack such as the third hit of your combo, a flying kick, a weapon or your special.
What do coins do?īŧ
Coins buy upgrades: more health, more damage and faster special energy. You earn coins for every knock-out and more for winning a level with stars, so replaying levels always helps.
How do I get three stars?īŧ
Stars depend on how much health you have left when the last enemy falls. Avoid big hits, jump over shockwaves and save your special for crowded moments.
Can I play on my phone?īŧ
Yes. Turn your phone sideways for the biggest arena; large buttons for moving, jumping, punching and the special appear on the screen.
