The upcoming Nickelodeon brawler aptly named Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl has shared a series of new videos showing off gameplay for multiple characters like SpongeBob SquarePants, Nigel from The Wild Thornberrys, CatDog, and more. There is also a new gameplay breakdown from developer Ludosity and publisher GameMill Entertainment that offers the best look yet at the intricacies of playing the new fighting video game.
Broadly speaking, while gameplay has been shown before for Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl, this is by far the most granular look. Perhaps the most notable aspect of the new footage is that it confirms wavedashing is present. Wavedashing, if you are not familiar, is essentially using an air dodge into the ground to dash about, and features perhaps most prominently in video games like the Super Smash Bros. franchise, a series to which Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl has inevitably drawn comparisons. You can check out the new videos, as shared by IGN, below:
