Game Description:

Tackle for Loss is a gritty, high-octane 2D top-down action experience built around a combat system inspired by American football’s four-down rule - limited moves, no room for error, all forward momentum. You play as a former American football pro - bruised, broken, and battling through a criminal underworld to rescue someone you love. Haunted by concussions, your only tools are raw instinct and muscle memory from a game that no longer remembers you.
