A game released during the fighting game craze of the 90s. Control wise it hasnt aged well at all, even at launch it wasnt very good. Its a game that was insanely difficult, and even more unforgiving than Mortal Kombat II. The plus came from the art and lore. I used to spend so much time reading all the lore in the instruction booklet with the game and in the bios menu in game itself, where you got surprisingly detailed information on every character in the game. The cover art was a bad ass and still is to this day imo. The soundtrack is catchy and one ive remembered for years. Overall a good attempt, but not good enough given its competition, especially at the time. The end result is a fighting game that controls terribly, looks great, and has heart/passion behind it. Made with only support from half of Sega at the time as the Japanese division wanted nothing to do with the game so Sega America backed it on their own. Hardly any marketing, almost zero corporate support, it was basically destined to not succeed which unfortunate. All the heavy hitters that came out and in the end, only 2 of which survived; Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter.
