Your objective is to fight through waves of enemies across various urban stages, defeating bosses to progress. You control your character from a side-view perspective, moving left and right to punch, kick, and use special attacks to clear each area. Each character has a standard attack combo, a jump attack, and a powerful special move that costs a portion of your health but can hit all surrounding enemies. You can also perform grabs, throws, and pick up weapons like pipes and knives dropped by foes. A key strategy is to manage your positioning to avoid being surrounded, using your special attack sparingly in tight situations. In the early stages, focus on learning enemy patterns and conserving health. As you advance, the challenge increases with faster, more aggressive enemies, requiring precise timing and effective use of environmental objects. During tense moments, especially boss fights, prioritize dodging attacks and striking during openings to survive.
Tip: a gamepad makes special moves and long combos much easier than the keyboard.
