Bosses are all quite good, there’s a lot of variety, and the movement and controls feel tight and you have a lot of attacking and evading options. I think it could’ve benefited from a light attack and heavy attack button, instead of just the charged up special button, but it made up for it with the dodging and sliding moves you could pull off.
It was fun to try the whole roster (Casey Jones is missing) and they felt different enough, but in the later levels I relied on Leo’s double jump slash attack that killed most enemies easily.

The artstyle is top notch, the pixel art looks great and the animations are all fluid.
Overall just a fun game and possibly my favourite beat ‘em up. 80s source material, 80s artstyle, 80s game genre, it all fits.
