The game uses a side-view, single-screen duel format. Players fight one opponent at a time and rely on punches, kicks, and directional special moves to land hits. Timing, spacing, and jump attacks matter because every opponent behaves differently, from rushdown fighters to ranged attackers. Winning a round advances the player to the next match, while losing all health ends the run. Progress depends on learning patterns and choosing safe openings instead of trading blows.
Oolong
The player character, a martial artist who uses punches, kicks, and special techniques.
Piao
One of the early opponents, known for fast close-range pressure.
Bison
A heavier opponent with slower movement but stronger pressure and reach.
Learn each enemy's opening animation and jump timing before attacking aggressively. Against long-range fighters, bait their move and punish during recovery. Against rushdown opponents, stay patient and use single hits rather than extended exchanges. Special kicks are best used when an enemy is jumping or briefly exposed after landing. Later opponents demand spacing and discipline more than raw offense.
Tips and tricks
Keep some room behind you so you can retreat when pressured.
Tips and tricks
