A high speed fighting game in which powerful charge moves decide the outcome of every match, where K.O. may not be the end...

Each character has a unique charge attack tied to a timer, when it's full, you can unleash a powered-up version of the attack, but be strategic, using the attack before the timer is full will deplete the timer, and the normal version of the attack will come out.

D-CELL


D-CELL drives a Pontiac Firebird (with the pop-up headlights). He uses his array of projectiles to land long juggles, and his shorthop to overwhelm opponents. Daren Cell is an ideal generalist, excelling at every general mechanic in Vital Charge.

COAGULA


COAGULA is a vampire slime girl made out of blood. She spends her own health on powerful summons and attacks that keep her opponents blocking for a long time, but steals life back when she lands a grab. Playing Coagula is a delicate, technical balancing act where you both control the flow of the game, but must take bigger risks to stay alive.

ALICE


ALICE collects magic knives with her vampire girlfriend. She's the fastest character in the game, both in terms of movespeed and APM. Her unique command dash and fastfall allows her to string unique, expressive gameplay. Her long reach on her knife contrasts her more risky kicks.

K3-V1N

K3-V1N IS A REAL ROBOT. 01000001 01001110 01000100 00100000 01001001 01010100 00100000 01000111 01010010 01000001 01000010 01010011 00100000 01010000 01000101 01001111 01010000 01001100 01000101 00101110
