I've tried this game and it doesn't look bad, it has a simplistic style and work okay with a little bit of input lag. 

Despite the okay title i still have problems with it, The so called arcade style is only on paper, there's no arcade feel while playing this game cause the controls are terrible, I played this on a PS3 controller and it forced me to move with the analog stick only (first mistake) we should be able to use Dpad. 

You have a full controller at your disposition and you map different moves on the same keys. 

Here's how it would be 100 time better, more intuitive. 

Square = Attack

Cross = Jump

Dpad/Analog = Movements

Left trigger = Dash

Right trigger or Circle = Guard

It would've made the whole game much more playable, by just having controls on same buttons i end up doing actions i don't want to and get frustrated every time. 

I agree with this. I think the game is pretty fun (and I'm a big fan of American Werewolf in London and the Thriller video) but it always bugs me when a 2D game with basic movement uses the darn analog stick when I want to use the d-pad.  So yeah that's my main crit.  Otherwise I'm quite enjoying it. :)

Thanks for the suggestions!

This game was created for a specific hardware in mind, and played on that hardware when it was released.  It had an analog joystick and two buttons, so we mapped the game to be playable on that: joystick moves and jumps, one button attacks, one button defends AND dashes if defend while moving. 

We didn't have 4 buttons to map all actions that way, and even though, for an arcade (an actual arcade machine), wouldn't 4 buttons be too much?

Then we release with minor adaptations to be playable with PS4/xBox controllers. I guess PS3 too, but we haven't tested.

We might consider this remapping on a future release, though. Thanks!

You can rebind buttons using external software mind you, most easily done when you launch the game through Steam.

You're probably aware of that but just in case.
