Play as a stick-figure fighter in a fast-paced 2D platform fighter for one to four players. Matches can be played locally or online.
After many successful hits, you can cancel into an air dash in any direction and continue attacking, creating routes for extended combos. The game emphasizes aggressive movement and offense, with no shields or grabs; a burst can interrupt an opponent's combo once per stock.
Choose from a small roster of fighters with different abilities and play against friends, CPU opponents, or online rivals. Online options include quickplay matchmaking and hosted lobbies.
Players often praise the fast, fluid combat and the freedom to link attacks with directional dash cancels, which they find satisfying to learn and expressive in play. Reviews also frequently enjoy the distinct fighters and matches with friends, and some call out the stick-animation style. Others find the game difficult to learn or want more fighters and content; reports of online availability and reliability vary.

STYLE ON EVERYONE! We wanted A FEW QUICK MATCHES to feel like an old-school stick fight, which means flashy animations and impactful moments! To attain this feel, we made it so that most successful hits can be cancelled into air dashes, meaning your follow-up routes are nearly infinite. Deep-diving into this combo system is incredibly rewarding, and landing a well-executed chain of attacks feels uniquely satisfying. While this mechanic is not necessary to enjoy your battles, those who choose to embrace it will push the game to its limits!
FIGHT ANYONE! We designed our game with online play in mind. A FEW QUICK MATCHES harnesses the amazing magic of ROLLBACK NETCODE to ensure smooth, lag-free battles across the internet. Host lobbies to challenge your friends, or hop into quickplay to match up with any player in your region.
