After months of fixing bugs, testing chaotic builds, and wrestling with physics so dumb they loop back to genius, it's finally time for you to join the Arena. The fight begins NOW!



For those just jumping in, Nubs! is an over-the-top PvP arena brawler inspired by the charm (and chaos) of classic top-down RPGs. Take control of your Nub and fight your way through deadly arenas with bizarre traps. Snag ridiculous weapons, unleash absurd power-ups, and win the crowd to earn the favor of the all-powerful Konzumos!

Here’s what you’ll be doing in Nubs!:

• Create the perfect Nub for you – Customize your Nub with an outrageous mix of outfits and colors to stand out.
  
• Survive Deadly Arenas – Fight in a range of colorful and dangerous stages, each filled with unique hazards and surprise elements.
  
• Wield the Ridiculous – Arm yourself with a bizarre arsenal of weapons and power-ups, ranging from powerful to just plain weird (including fish).
  
• Mix Up Your Matches – Jump into free-for-alls, team battles, and soon to come additional game modes.
  
• Multiplayer Madness – Play online or locally with up to 20 players in total mayhem.
  
• Fast and Addictive – What starts as one quick match often turns into an all-night brawl.
