The game uses a traditional 2D one-on-one fighting format on side-view stages. Characters have standard attacks, jumping, blocking, and special moves, with clear differences in speed, reach, and combo timing. Main modes include a single-player arcade ladder and local versus play, with progress tied to defeating a sequence of opponents. Success depends on spacing, timing, and learning each fighter’s safer attacks rather than relying on flashy moves alone.

Taffy

A stretchy clown-like fighter who excels at mid-range pressure with extended attacks.

Blob

A sentient wad of chewing gum whose slippery, bizarre attacks fit the game’s parody style.

Bad Mr. Frosty

The series’ iconic evil snowman, built around powerful attacks and ice-themed moves.

Earthworm Jim

A guest character from the Earthworm Jim series with highly recognizable animations and attacks.

Learn your character’s reach and recovery first, then build your game around safe pokes instead of reckless rushdown. Against heavy hitters, bait attacks with short movement and punish their recovery rather than trading blows. In single-player, the AI often reacts quickly to obvious openings, so keep combos short and reliable. Characters with long-range normals can control the pace well by forcing opponents to approach carelessly.
