Brad Foreman is a high school junior whose hair wasn't necessarily out of date at the time, and he sure does enjoy punching people. More specifically, he enjoys punching people who he believes to be a threat to the safety of himself or others in general. His most treasured personal pastime is cleaning up the streets of his hometown the only way he knows how: with a big smile and a certain method of physical violence which is, hopefully, incredibly obvious by this point. Join Brad on a short, simplistic beat 'em up adventure, and press that punch button as many times as you see fit!

This project is a particularly special one to me. Beat 'em ups have always been my favorite genre of video game and I've always wanted to make one, so releasing this game is a big personal milestone for me! There's certainly lots that can be improved upon or developed in this game, but I'm almost certain this will not be the last time I try my hand at the genre! For this project especially, if you have any suggestions, ideas, or thoughts in general, please leave them in the comments! And of course, thank you for playing!

Very fun! it was a great distraction from studying and I hope that you make another game in this style (perhaps with a combat combo system of some sort)

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it! I’m glad it served as an ample distraction! :D

Nice game. It does remind me of River City Ransom style of game. The controls, music, and art was great. Health recovery would be cool or what about food upgrades. I got to beat the game on my first try. 

I'm happy to hear you enjoyed it! Yes, River City Ransom was a big inspiration for the game, especially the art style. Thanks for the suggestions!
