Blade Ballad

Blade Ballad is an melee game that utilizes kinematic to give players precise control over their blade's movement, enabling attacks to unfold in a procedural manner. The focus of combat is on player skill, timing, and coordination, rather than on having superior stats.

It also introduces a straightforward construction system that employs triangular shapes rather than the typical voxel-based approach.
