The overall aesthetic is nice. But it is unfortunately janky to the point of not being enjoyable. Really bad voice acting, bad transitions and "story" between fights, enemy moves that are hard to read...
The fairly short length of the game fits quite well with the kind of game that it is. Still, even then, I got to the final boss and couldn't be bothered to beat him; watched it on youtube instead, and I don't feel like I've missed much.

Unfortunately this game is not good, it's not a worthy spiritual successor to Punch-Out.
It ends up being more trial and error with an emphasis on memorization.
Worst of all is that with low life, a filter covers the entire screen and occurs a dramatic close-up, which makes it difficult to see the patterns, which are inconsistent and not very clear, even more difficult to read at the most necessary moment.
The filter even covers the start menu, making the yellow highlight almost indistinguishable.
One of the bosses is a witch who releases magic, and guess the color... With low health it was better to restart the fight.

I bought this game on sale based purely off of its style and yeah I’d say it was money well spent. It’s a pretty decent a punch-out like. I’d say it’s everything you could want except that fucking white haze filter that goes over your character when you’re low health genuinely brings this game down multiple notches. Why would you make the game harder to play when I’m on low health. It is INCREDIBLY annoying and lost me multiple games. Fuck that filter. But yeah besides that it’s pretty good.
