The game uses a side-view 2D fighting system focused on one-on-one matches. Players move with the directional controls, then use light and heavy attacks, throws, jumps, and special move inputs to pressure opponents. Each fighter has unique range, mobility, and special techniques, with some characters excelling at rushdown while others favor spacing and air control. Single-player mode advances through a series of CPU battles toward an ending, and momentum management is key to success.

F. Kazunoko

A fast, explosive fighter who excels at close-range pressure and rapid offense.

Prince

A royal warrior with strong jumping ability and flashy techniques, effective at mid-range control.

Olga

A nimble female fighter with varied strings and quick offensive options.

B. Jenet

A stylish combatant who mixes technical play with aggressive special moves to disrupt opponents.

Learn each character’s normal move ranges and special move inputs before attempting long combos. Against the CPU, solid blocking and punish play are usually safer than constant rushing. Mid-range control is important versus aerial or highly mobile opponents, and quick advancing specials can interrupt startup animations. Consistent anti-air timing helps keep pressure under control.
