    I changed the resolution so the black lines don't show anymore. Let me know if this is better or worse. Thanks for watching and let me know how the Boss went for you. Enjoy💙
    I didn't forget about the online matches they are coming in time.😅 I left this in it's purest form so you can see my full struggle...

    Fun fact: Despite the design similarities, the developer confirmed that he wasn’t based off Son Wukong. The main inspiration was actually Heihachi from Tekken

    So fun story:
    In an early patch while playing Blaziken, I somehow broke the direction inputs, so I only could do 5A, 5B and C. And for some miracle, I was able to beat Gorochu with just fireballs and parries.
    Needless to say it was a pain in the ass.

      I say still give it a go. It's honestly simple controls. You only really use three buttons to fight with, basic attack, special moves, (You can see how to do them when you pause the game) and the parry/throw button. The Wiki also helps going over every characters moves. Also it's free to download. If you feel it's not for you that's ok 😁
