What is Plasma Puncher?

Plasma Puncher is a single-player 2D beat 'em up set in a bloodstream, where the last white blood cell fights invading microorganisms. You punch enemies, collect power-ups, and spend gold particles on upgrades and new attacks. Most combat takes place on one circular stage, with increasingly difficult enemy waves as you try to destroy the giant microbe beneath you.
