Can't believe I'm playing this in flash....

Very impressive visuals, harks back to the days of Street Fighter Alpha and Marvel Vs Capcom. Nice simple control system, great sound effects, almost flawless EXCEPT, the controls are a little laggy. Though as far as the framerate lag I've read about, no problems here, ran at a comfortable 40fps for me and that was with the screen expanded.

I would seriously consider developing this outside of flash, give the characters some back story and expand the control system slightly.

Honestly one of the most visually impressive flash games I've seen in a long time, just proves it doesn't have to be blocks and stickmen.

Laggy and furries...

Good looking game, too bad it's pretty much unplayable. This could be a 4+ with the art alone.

From what I could tell, I personally found the characters too complicated and because it was all furry hard to differentiate or even relate to. Do these characters have stories? What's the context of this whole game anyway? You're introduced to a bunch of characters at once with all these specific moves and no idea what they mean. I think the concept is actually a bit too much for a Flash, given the performance limitations.

Needs a little work

Pros; So far you've got a good number of characters with enough variation between them for the characters not to seem like clones of each other, you've got a good number of stages for variety, simple easy to learn controls and good graphics.

Cons; Unfortunately the game suffers from severe lag and you can't play it offline to get around that. Firefox and chrome both play this game at 5fps and internet explorer manages 15fps. You would tjhink adjusting the quality in the options would help but it makes no difference. If you try to play it offline in irfanview the game shuts down when you hit escape to bypass the demo rendering the game unplayable. Maybe some other people are having better luck but I know the problems not my pc, it's not new but has a pentium 4 2.93 ghz processor, 2 gigs of ram, and a nvidia 6200 series 128 bit 3d accelerator and I never have trouble with flash games or much else.

Fix these issues and you have a potential 10/10 5/5 game on your hands.

Eww

Everything was fine until the game loaded and there were furries everywhere.

so much potential...

...crushed by a steep learning curve. I can defenitley feel that this game COULD be incredible, but overall, it feels a little too harsh for novices. I've picked up on what seem to be mechanics based loosely on MVC, but having never played the game very intensely, I feel awkward with FVF. Regardless, mashing away at the F button certainly provided a flashy show of appealing graphics, effects, sounds and music. Had this game featured a more extensive tutorial, I could've easily given it a 9, maybe even 10. Sadly, it just falls flat in the area of informative-ness.
