What De Mambo is

De Mambo is a fighting game developed by The Dangerous Kitchen and released in 2017. It is available on Nintendo Switch, Linux, Mac and PC (Microsoft Windows).

The premise, in the publisher's words

De Mambo is The Dangerous Kitchen's first game that lets players take control of up to four characters locked in infinite mambo! Help them escape this horrible—and somewhat provocative—despair! Knock your opponent off the screen… and use your measly one button to attack with three levels of charge! Break the level however you decide (thanks to some flimsy architecture) to make your game marginally different each time you play.

At 4GB of RAM, it will run on essentially any working PC — that is below what a budget laptop ships with today. Install size is roughly 1GB.
