Berzerkerz is a fast-paced, gore-intensive, minimalistic party game featuring online & local multiplayer for up to 8 players.
Each player assumes control of a dual-wielding berzerker hell-bent on emerging as the sole survivor of the arena. These crazed warriors will charge forward recklessly as players can turn left and right but are unable to stop or slow down.
To achieve victory players must collect flaming spheres to gain speed. Use said speed to eliminate slower foes through collision while avoiding faster enemies for obvious reasons. Also avoid stationary objects and foes of equal speed as they will leave you stunned and reset your speed. Lastly keep in mind that high-speed collisions with anything other than slower opponents will result in your imminent blood-spattered death. Have fun!
Controls
Turn left or turn right, pick up orbs for speed, kill your enemies by colliding when you are faster than them.
Player 1: a, d
(For local players)
Player 2: left arrow, right arrow
Player 3: k, l
Player 4: g, h
