About Oathblades

Oathblades is a 1v1 duelling game, hand drawn and animated in 2D, set in the world of the Ender — a mythical land where arguments are settled with steel.

A round is short and brutal

You carry two lives into a round. Two clean strikes end it, so there is no room to trade blows carelessly.

Range decides everything

Every exchange asks the same question: which attack fits the gap between you?

• Short range — for when you are already inside the guard
• Medium range — the middle ground
• Long range — reaches across the arena

Choose the wrong one and your blade cuts air while theirs cuts you.

Blocking is a weapon

You can block, and a block thrown at the right moment does more than save you. It hands you the advantage and opens the counter.
