i love this game. all the unlockable characters,moves, secret items. although i find the wave mode and critical mode very challenging. its near impossible to 100% but it does present a challenge so.

Nope... The controls aren't responsive, the combos don't feel good to hit, the enemies AI is dumb and the graphics are just lazy instead of a decent pixel art. There are much better 8 and 16 bit style beat 'em up platformers out there.

A nice diversion. It's easy to pick up, but feels absolutely a nightmare to master, but in a good way. I want to revisit this game (it's quite old by now?), and while people say controls don't work, they do, at least on my end. I enjoyed playing through it, but I haven't gotten near good enough for the harder difficulties yet. Definitely worth picking up though.

i HIGHLY RECOMMEND. If you like Super Smash Bros. you will love this game. is to learn hard to master. A lot of enemies on screen, they don't hold your hand to slow burn you. you are in the fire quick. I like the controls, quick and easy. you can change the controls any way you want turn it into Tekken or Dead or Alive controls. Cool art style.
