I honestly wish I could play this with friends because I'm sure it would be so fun in multiplayer! Singleplayer mode is fine but it's really only needed just so you can unlock characters and gain more moves for Emerl to learn. Emerl being a customizable fighter is so cool since you can have him learn other characters moves and create unique combos like Sonic 1, into shadow 2, and finish it with Knuckles 3. So much room for customization! I'd like to see another attempt at this sort of game one day.
