Memento Mori-Martial

Memento Mori-Martial is a fighting game about forgetting. Your moves decay as you use them, and you spend banked shards to recover what you lose. Each day brings a new Amnesia Modifier. Thursday's The Split Reflex makes Advance and Punch decay twice as fast.

Choose who you were:

• Kael, The Disgraced: a balanced former champion whose Neon Palm blasts a short-range shockwave.
• Vesper, The Afterimage: fast and light, with an extra Dash pip. Phase Slash teleports through the enemy.
• Orun, The Iron Monk: slow and heavy, with an extra Punch pip. Cortex Breaker charges through hits.

Then pick a mod. Echo Shield keeps the first move you would lose each round as a ghost for one more use. Retrograde Boost cuts recovery to 1 shard when you are cornered or below 30% health. Cognitive Anchor locks your Special in permanently, but it must recharge between uses.

Enter the Archive and face Floor I, Surface Cortex, where the Echo-Phantom copies the last move you erased. Floors II to IV appear sealed on the Archive screen. A Lifetime Log tracks your history. Keyboard controls: A/D to move, W or Space to jump, J/Z punch, K/X kick, L/C special, Shift to dash, E to recover, hold back to block.
