This hits the spot in so many ways. I've always wished for a fighting game without the practical necessity of the real-time combat, now couple it with your Newgrounds' childhood stick fighting nostalgia. This game becomes unique by taking the more jargonic mechanics of fighting games, generally understood from within the fighting game community and applying them to a strategy game with its own set of rules. As such it might be hard to understand to some users, the learning curve is steep and it becomes quite a niché game for the uninitiated. What is certain is that Yomi Hustle is one-of-a-kind within its genre, and an industry that struggles to come across new innovative spins on established game design forms.
