ZapStick

ZapStick is a physics-driven action game set in a forest. Players wield a magic stick powered by a crystal, which they charge and then fire to zap opponents. When hit, characters are sent flying with ragdoll physics, and the developer describes the core loop as requiring no strategic decisions.

Each match includes power cards that introduce twists to the round. Named examples include Bind Curse, Vita Potion and Spyglass Orb, with more available. Players can also customise their character’s appearance with clothing and other cosmetic options.

The game supports several ways to play. It can be played solo to practise, against AI opponents, or with friends in multiplayer. ZapStick has now moved from development to a released state on Steam, where it currently has one user review.
