Overthrone

Overthrone is a hectic twin-stick  battle royale, where friends become foes as you compete to claim the crown! Grab weapons and power-ups that are scattered around the arena to give yourself an edge in this frantic competition. If you fall in combat, fear not; take revenge as a ghost by destroying the ground underneath your killer and plummeting them to their doom!  However, in the end, only one can become the ruler. Will you triumph? Or will you be… OVERTHRONE?!
