About Midnight Fight Express
Midnight Fight Express puts you in the shoes of Babyface, a former underworld operative pulled back by a mysterious AI drone. You must fight across 41 hand‑crafted city levels before sunrise to stop a criminal takeover.
The game blends fast‑paced brawling, a sprawling skill tree, and a wide arsenal of melee and ranged tools. Full controller support, Steam Cloud saves, and leaderboards let you shape the challenge and compare scores.

- Experiment with different environmental objects to see how they affect enemy positioning.
- Watch enemy attack patterns and choose when to dodge or counter for smoother flow.
