It can be used to dodge through attacks if timed correctly. The dodge is controlled by the right stick and depending on the weapon you’re using you can stay in the air as long as you want to. You have a grab, a light and a heavy attack as well as a dodge mechanic. The basic mechanics of the combat are simple, but the combat itself can be complex. You fight your way through room after room until you find your way to a boss. The game is a 2D side scrolling action game. This is a game I would not mind simply spectating just because of the pure adrenaline pumping spectacle going on at all times. Even if it is on the part of the enemies. There is always a good amount of seizure inducing action going on and even the worst of players can make a fight look well coreographed. It’s a good mix of 2D sprites and great visual effects layered on top. The art style and animations are beautiful in their own grotesque way. Psychotic stepsister indeed While the story is lackluster the mood and combat however, are the strong points of the game. It’s not very important however, and some suspension of disbelief will get you a long way in The Dishwasher. If this is a story option, then some of the contrivances of the main story line might be cleared up. There is also a multiplayer mode which I unfortunately didn’t get a chance to test. The last boss however, seems more intended for the Dishwasher in my opinion. He goes through the same areas as Yuki and he apparently arrives after Yuki every time, yet the exact same enemies and bosses are still there. The Dishwasher’s story seems a bit forced in parts. Yuki’s story especially has a great air of insanity to it. It’s straight forward and not very interesting, but it does provide a great mood for the game. The Dishwasher however is simply there because he is trying to kill the main antagonist. Not that there was much left of it to begin with. All the while she seems to be gradually losing her sanity. Thus, she is hunting down the ones responsible. She was framed and was punished for a crime she did not commit. Yuki’s story is basically a revenge story. That doesn’t mean much though as every environment, enemy and boss fight is the exact same no matter which you choose.
Depending on which character you choose you will have a slightly different story.
There are two playable characters in the game The Dishwasher and his psychotic stepsister Yuki. The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile is a downloadable title for XBLA.
