Arena modeeee
arena's even more fun with more people to join in the fun.
This is a fun beat em up, with characters that actually play differently from each other, multiple paths for replayability, leveling up, and a cool plane switching mechanic. Nothing outstanding but worth playing
Got an hour in and was killed by one of the bosses and didn't have any continues left so stopped playing.
IT HAS BEEN DONE.
One of the Saturn games I most regret not buying, because then I might have had time to learn how to play this well enough to beat it. It still looms large in my memory, of this seemingly impossible triple co-op fighting game. It felt endless in options when I played it as a kid, and that sensation doesn't always hold up upon revisiting something. That's the main thing that's kept me from trying it again, fair or unfair. Maybe someday!
