Skewer your enemies, tear them apart piece by piece, wrestle them into hazards and other threats, find their weak points and strike. Every strike you land causes your weapon to get stuck in the enemy, leaving you exposed, but giving you opportunities to deal more more damage or reposition them by force. Spine and quill is set apart by this combat model: It's not just dodge and hit, it’s dodge and hit, and whatever you want to do after that hit. The default experience will test you to your limits, and require thought and creativity in how you approach each enemy and each encounter. Story An army of robots made of scrap metal and discarded appliances march on the kingdom of Rodentia, intent on capturing animals and bringing them to a dreaded land known only as ‘Zoo.’ Quillary, the porcupine princess, embarks on a quest to find her long lost mother, a great rodent warrior who could turn the tide. Along the way she meets Dandy, a friendly spider who was waylaid on a journey of discovery from a far off land. Together they’ll battle robots, meet strange characters, and learn what it means to be a porcupine- to sometimes hurt the people you want to hold close.
