Victory! It was foolish of the mushroom people to challenge someone with legs to a tournament where only one can be left standing. And, also, that king looks a bit... cactus-y.
Fun game! It controls well, and I appreciate it's one of the few games I've sound so far where I can use a controller. I liked the jump but mostly didn't find a use for it. The dash, comparatively, was very helpful. And dashing while jumping looked neat, if nothing else!
I found it best to do hit and run tactics with the heavy attack, except against the big blue mushrooms, which I stood face to face with and did light chops.
Everything looks good and the music gives the fight a more epic feel to it.
