Among Us Arena is a great base. There is a light attack, a strong attack, a knife attack and a gun attack, all of which can be performed standing, crouching or in the air. There are even some rudimentary online functions so you can beat our friends.
However, every character in the list of 15 fighters plays exactly the same, so you pick your favorite color on the selection screen instead of a unique character. Still, it's an Among us fighting game! Check out some of these combos.
This is all the work of a developer known as Starcutter, who released a playable build of Among Us Arena last week and has since made numerous updates to tweak the game and fix bugs. They put it together while working on a larger, more mysterious fighting game project that has yet to come to light.
Fortunately, the Among Us developers at Inner Sloth don't seem to be taking a bad approach to this split. The official game's Twitter account seemed excited about the project and even states that they will check it out themselves, which is exactly the kind of cross-studio support we love to see.
Among Us Arena is currently free to play on itch.io.
