The Gameplay:

It's online multiplayer popes beating the *&$# out of each other. It's not that complicated. Battlepopes is an action packed 2D Sidescrolling MOBA, with cooldown-based abilities.

Prepare to choose your divine champion from an array of illustrious Popes and Antipopes, each armed with their own unique abilities and divine powers. From nimble nimbus jumps to righteous smiting strikes, unleash an arsenal of devastating attacks upon your adversaries. Engage in lightning-fast team-based clashes, where tactical positioning and lightning reflexes are the keys to victory.

Unleash Chaos, Wield Strategy

In this dark and unforgiving pixelated universe, you will step into the shoes of a Pope or Antipope, each with their own distinct abilities and playstyle. As you traverse the treacherous landscapes of Hell, you must confront grotesque demons and outsmart your eternal rivals.
