Excited to try this out! Been enjoying Santa Fighter for my android Flappy Fighter fix, this feels very Third Strike to FF's SF2 vibes. Extremely early thoughts from me, a noob:
- In the tutorial, I think it would be nice to manually go from lesson to lesson - and until the player does that, the current lesson should loop. Mostly saying this as I was having trouble with the timing of grab breaks in particular and I think I only successfully did it by accident in the end, hahah
- I could see there being a third option for button overlay between "normal" and "off" - maybe "minimal"? I'm thinking instead of circles with letters, you just have little dots/pips to indicate button position without crowding the screen
- If possible, I think I'd consider adding something animated to the loading screens - my phone is a bit on the slower side, so there were a couple moments when I wondered if the game had frozen
- In the future, will the character portraits change color to preview your costume choice? If that would balloon the app, then perhaps adding a two-tone color indicator next to the character, or changing the colors used on the "name tags"?
Great work on this so far, it's super impressive! Going to have to try it out on my Retroid Pocket at some point :D
