What an awesome idea and execution. 

The game is snappy, it feels good to block attacks. The artstyle and design is delightful and the music is fitting. Might be a bit short, but it's greatly made.

Absolutely love the style of the game and it kinda reminds me of Punch-Out!!. If you were ever to work on this again, I would suggest adding a level system where the difficulties increase at a reasonable rate.

this style of game was new to me and i really enjoyed it! From the music to the artwork and graphics i really believe this game has so much potential. i think its so awesome you guys were able to do all of this in 48 hours, imagine what more you could've done if you guys had more time! another mention for the music, i absolutely love the variety given, i feel like a lot of people dont pay attention to the music and i can tell you guys did. good job again guys!

Love the art and the concept, being a referee is awesome!

Really fantastic spritework! I think I would have appreciated an additional indicator for up vs. down attacks, since I often got confused when a character would crouch slightly but still make a higher-up attack.

Stunning graphics for a 48 hours game ! But gameplay is really limited and imprecise.

Oh wow, the artwork in this one is super good! Great job!

Super cool  art style here. Everything looks tight, and when that bassline kicks in the menu, nioce. I like the idea of being the ref in a fight, but I wish there was more game play with ref other than blocks.

Nice work!

Love the art! You guys should continue this outside of the jam and polish everything up to the same level. It could be really, really good. :)

These graphics are just insane for a game jam. Astounding job!
