Fight a wireframe stickman rival with punches, kicks, and slow-motion combos in Electric Man, a fast one-on-one brawler built on timing, not story.
Electric Man
Electric Man drops you into a one-on-one brawl between two wireframe stickmen crackling with electricity. There’s no story and no map to explore — just a bare arena, a health bar, and an opponent who hits back exactly as hard as you do. Rounds are short and fast, closer to a reflex test than a traditional fighting game.
What sets it apart from most stickman fighters is the slow-motion system. Every hit charges a meter, and once it’s full you can trigger a bullet-time attack that lands almost automatically while the world crawls around you. Spamming regular punches gets you nowhere against a smart opponent; the game rewards baiting a whiff, then cashing in the slow-mo window before your energy drains back down.
Controls
- Arrow keys — move and jump
- A / S / D — punch / kick / knee (regular attacks)
- Q / W / E — slow-motion punch / kick / grab (cost energy, only available once your battery is charged)
Which move connects depends on your character’s facing and whether you’re standing still or moving, so the same key can throw a different strike depending on position.
Tips that actually help
- Don’t throw slow-mo attacks the moment they’re available — save the charge for when your opponent is mid-recovery from their own missed swing.
- Grabs beat blocking. If an opponent turtles up, a slow-mo grab (E) will get through where a punch won’t.
- Watch the battery icon, not just the health bars — running out of charge mid-exchange leaves you stuck with the weaker basic moves.
