User Reviews
I actually really like what I've messed with in this game, but both my qanba arcade stick and my ps4 controller cause both player 1 and player 2 to be controlled at the same time, and there's no options screen to assign controllers, so I'm kind of out of luck to both do training mode and play with a friend offline. It's really a shame because I think there's some really good ideas in this simple game and it'd be the easiest recommend if I could... like, play it.
