Vitisus Rage

You control Vitisus, a gladiator, moving him left and right across an arena. The goal is to survive waves of opponents. You build up a rage meter by holding down a key, which you can then expend for a powerful strike. Basic combat involves timing your swings to chain together combos on approaching enemies. The pace is quick, and the difficulty comes from managing the crowd while charging your attacks. It feels like a constant, hectic scramble to stay alive.
