Reviews for "The Perfect Fighter"

f up controls

totally piss me off when my character froze during battle every single time

This all seems too familiar

It was ok considering you took all the animations from street fighter 4 and just changed around the textures.

gangsta

this is like street fighter 2 only sharper. i like it. i like the big guy who slams everyone.

looks cool

5 for looks, -5 because the controls wont work. make a better control scheme.

like wasd to move and jkl for punches and uio for kicks.

Exceptionally good, but with some flaws.

First of all, congratulations on making an exceedingly fun game! I found the combat enjoyable and very well put together considering this is a free internet game. Whilst I'm not entirely sent on the arrow keys/calculator pad controls, they work and they provide a good replication of an arcade-style set up (with the notable absence of a joystick, obviously). I thought the characters were interesting (go Meissa!) and well designed with a pleasingly varied moveset - being able to easily access the command list in-fight so easily was a Godsend.
Regrettably, there are a number of flaws that are all too noticeable:
1) I, and it seems a lot of other people, have had the game freeze on us whilst loading. Quite frustrating when one is 5 battles into a story mode, and definitely a bug to be looked into.
2) The loading times themselves; whilst I appreciate you giving us a breakout-style minigame to keep us occupied (and it worked for me!), the ideal solution would be to find a way to shorten loading times. Admittedly this is a difficult task given the quality of the graphics/engine, but it would be a big improvement and would make the game seem to run much more seamlessly.
3) Only being able to save things via Facebook/Mochi. Fair enough, I assume that part of the conditions for your adverts/sponsorship by Mochi are shoehorning in their login system, but it's nonetheless a shame that on one of the biggest game sites out there (with its own in-built achievement system), achievements and other features are only retained when using an outside service.
If the flaws sound like they outweight the positives, they don't. I really enjoyed this game! I only elaborate on the flaws in the hope that it can be improved and made even better.
In my opinion this game should be on a rating of at least 4.15, and without the flaws I've mentioned I bet it could reach upwards of 4.40, so hopefully with time this already most impressive title will attain the success it deserves!
