COUNTERVERSE
**Parry the Phrase. Return It Reversed.** COUNTERVERSE is an original portrait-first precision duel. Each enemy writes an attack phrase with four directional cuts. Parry every cut on the beat to capture the score, then perform the complete phrase from right to left to turn the enemy's own cadence against it.
SHARDBALL: Parry the Hunter · Crack the Court Remix
SHARDBALL is a portrait-first fixed-step party survival game. A deflectable hunter ball locks one stable fighter and crosses the rooftop in a published number of beats. When it reaches the Hare at `ETA 1`, a perfect parry redirects it to one chosen living rival. Every successful guard—human or rival—removes one physical layer from the exact plate beneath that fighter. Move during flight, guard only on impact, and remain above the court after every rival pad breaks.
COUNTERSTEP · Every Parry Trades Places
COUNTERSTEP is an original portrait-first real-time action ballet. The player has no joystick and no free dodge. Every enemy strike engraves its destination when the telegraph begins. Tap the white-hot attacker inside the final parry window and the two fighters exchange exact positions. Every other committed attack still lands on the abandoned mark, so the attacker inherits the court's own crossfire.
GROOVEHEIST: Every Parry Steals a Beat
An original portrait-first rhythm duel built on one conserved physical record. Each of twelve absolute groove slots is Boss-owned, player-owned, or an empty rest. During STEAL, answer an incoming High, Mid, or Low note at the needle, or spend finite Breath to Slip it. A clean answer transfers that exact slot from the Boss to the player; it does not deal damage and it never moves the note. During RETURN, inputs lock and the same stolen slots play at the same positions. Their circular order must exactly equal the published Crown Mix.
