Publisher's description
From Manifesto Games :While many games indeed contain sword-wielding characters, very few make even a cursory attempt actually to simulate the dynamics of sword-fighting, nor yet to impart a sense of how it actually feels to engage in swordplay. That's what Determinance does. True, what it simulates is less the reality of fencing that the sort of over-the-top dramatic swordplay you'd expect in Highlander or a Hong Kong action flick, but hey, that's fun. What it does, and elegantly, is allow you to control sword motions, body positions, and arm positions with nothing but the mouse and its buttons.
In short, from a UI perspective, at least, this is a highly innovative game. It's also one that takes a while to master; in keeping with other player-skill games, you need to train with the interface before you get good. Contains tutorial and first two solo opponents.

Version: Determinance 1.5
Pros: This game represents the state of the art in full analog combat. The controls are complex, but intuitive enough to figure out quickly. With full unrestrained control over your sword, staff, axe, halburd etc, and the ability to fly, it just comes down to your skill with a blade :D
Cons: This game is an independent production that has had verry limited exposure. I bought the full version, but without a community of active fighters, this game is quiet and lonely. I'm writing this review in the hopes that many will accept my challenge..thats right, its a challenge >:D. come get me, im easy to find ;)
I'm giving this Game a five star rating, lets try to develop a 5 star community 4 it?
