Lifetide is a fast-paced 2D top-down slasher where survival is the goal. Battle endless hordes of enemies using one of three distinct melee weapons, each with its own  playstyle. Every kill restores your health, so keep moving, keep slashing, and don’t stop fighting for your life.

Weapons:
Sword – Balanced and reliable. Great for crowd control with a devastating stab attack. (Weapon Tip: Blocking before attacking will reset your attack. For the sword you will reset to the high damage stab attack. Use this for dealing with priority targets)
Axe – Slow but deadly. Massive damage with a powerful spin attack to crush anyone in your path. (Weapon Tip: The Axe's spin attack has better penetration than it's normal attack. Use the spin attack on crowds and the normal attack on priority targets, when you can)
Knives – Speed is your strength. Dual blades mean faster dashes, quick kills, and high healing. (Weapon Tip: Dashing for all weapons gives you a short time on invulnerability. Knives have the most dashes and best healing. Use this combo to quickly heal your health when caught in a crowd)

Controls:
WASD = Move
Left Click = Attack
Right Click = Toggle Shield & Reset Attack
Shift = Dash

Enemies:
Basic – Armed with a sword or axe. The bulk of the horde. Manageable but deadly in numbers.
Dualer – Wields two swords  and is tougher, faster, and hits harder. 
Charger – Small, quick, and relentless. Darts through allies to reach you.
Healer – The support unit. Tanky, slow, and focused on keeping enemies alive. Take them out first.
