Spookyard

Spookyard is a local multiplayer game for competing in arenas, where players use character abilities to complete stage-specific goals rather than eliminate one another. Its setting draws on Brazilian legends: during each solstice, when the brightest planets align with Calçoene's Megaliths, a large crescent moon opens the way for sinister creatures to compete to become the greatest nightmare of all time.

Characters and arenas

You choose from four characters, each with their own abilities, basic attacks and attributes. Character controls cover movement, basic attacks and abilities. The game has four target arenas, with different competitive dynamics and either top-down or sidescrolling camera styles.

Arena challenges

Each game mode sets goals that vary between arenas. You use your character's skills to devise strategies for overcoming level challenges and hindering your opponents. The winner is the player who fulfills the mode's goals, rather than the one who eliminates opponents in combat.
