TITLE SHOT
A whole fight career. No energy, no waiting. Fights you can read.
What it is
A life simulator about a mixed martial arts career. You are nineteen, fighting on the local amateur circuit for tickets you have to sell yourself. Fifteen years later you could be the undisputed champion, a gatekeeper the prospects have to get past, or the coach of your own gym. One career feed, one button, and fight nights you watch round by round.
You pick a background (kickboxer, college wrestler, BJJ black belt or street brawler) and climb from the amateurs to the regional Coastline Fighting Championship to the Global Fighting League and its fifteen-man rankings. Every rung is a fight you can lose.
A dentist offers $600 to put his name on your banner, if you wear his mouthguard. It has his phone number molded on the front.
- Take the deal, wear the guard
- Banner yes, mouthguard no
- Keep your own guard
— one event, of more than two hundred
How it works
- Fights you can read. Every fight is simulated moment by moment, and the moments that mattered come through as play-by-play. You set the game plan, make the corner call between rounds, and decide whether to swarm or stay patient when someone gets hurt.
- Real judging. Three judges score every round on their own, so close fights go to split decisions and finishes come in rounds and minutes.
- Camp. Pick a training focus and an intensity. Push too hard and you get hurt; train too light and he comes in sharper.
- Choose your fights. Two or three offers each time, each with an honest odds band, a purse and a rank. Short notice pays more. Easy fights pay less.
- A career with a shape. Damage you take early shows up late. After thirty the body starts to collect. At some point the question is “one more fight?”, and only you can answer it.
- Twelve endings, from Undisputed to One fight too many. At the end, Corner Notes shows the real numbers: your career damage, your chin, and the odds you actually beat.

What it does not do
No ads. No in-app purchases. No timers or energy. No accounts, no analytics, no tracking, and no networking code at all — it works in aeroplane mode. Your career is a small file on your own phone. See the privacy policy, which is short because there is nothing to describe.
