Toribash


ToribashToribash [review] is turn-based fighting game utilizing ragdoll physics, created by Hampus Söderström (a.k.a. "Hampa"), a Swedish software developer. Toribash was a "Best Game Idea" finalist at the 2006 Swedish Game Awards.

Some features include character customization (your head, joints, and limbs may all be changed), online multiplayer, a ghost showing a preview of what the current joint settings will do to your ragdoll, saving and sharing replays, and dismemberment. It is still under development, yet exists in playable form.

Gameplay


Toribash is Addictive! Try Wushu, Sumo, Kick Boxing, Sambo, Swords, Judo and more. Create fighting movies and post them on YouTube. Watch other players fight. Chat with them. Defeat them!

The game is played by relaxingToribash [review], holding, extending or contracting the various joints on your ragdoll and hitting the spacebar to advance time by a user-specified amount, the default being 10 frames. When properly manipulated, one ragdoll will strike the other. Through careful manipulation of the ragdoll's joints, arbitrarily complex attacks can be performed. The goal of the game is to score as many points as possible during a fight by landing blows on the opponents ragdoll, or by forcing the opponent to touch the ground with anything but their hands or feet, thereby disqualifying themselves. Dismembered limbs contacting the ground will also cause a disqualification.

Community


Toribash has a community of players consisting of people from all age groups and all over the world. Most people are active on the toribash forum since a lot of the game functions can be accessed there. The official toribash IRC channel is #toribash on asia.toribash.com, where many players, as well as most of the developers can be found. This channel used to be on quakenet, but was moved to its own server in November 2007
