I'm not sure how this fit the jam constraint of not the main character, but by far my favorite one to play. So entertaining. Though I had trouble getting the hang of the controls. Wasn't super clear from the page what it took to hit the other players.

- Excellent use of SNES concept, but I don't see how the constraint was followed.
- Overall, definitely reminded me of the SNES time frame. Feels like one of those street fighter games that I would have played at a drive in or at a friends house. Well done!
- This was a cool game style-wise, definitely nailed the classic snes combat vibes. I can see a group of friends playing and trying to figure out what the combos are for the different characters. Since there are 4 player slots, it would be nice to see a 4th character type as well. I think the game jam constraint of "You are not the main character" wasn't the most adhered to, since you kind of were the main character as the non-NPC/CPU player. Nice submission! Had fun playing and grooved on the art style and sound effects.
