Pocket Rumble is a competitive fighting game made so that anyone can enjoy. the controls and HUDs are set up to help anyone out. It also has a balanced cast that shares command inputs, and nothing more. you can change to another character in case you lose a match.

The current state is alpha build 0.2.3. it features 2 characters (tenshi and naiomi), a training mode, and local and online versus.

Report it in the steam discussions. the devs will be more than happy to check it out for you.

your health is drained equally with every hit. you can take 12 hits before you lose.

The colored bar below your health informs you of your framedata, or how long your current action takes. These colors are Yellow for Startup (how long it takes for your attack to activate), Red for Active,(how long your attack can do damage), and Green for recovery (how long it takes before you can perform another action). However, the bar can also be used when you are getting hit. These colors are Orange for Hitstun (how long until you can attack again), Blue for Blockstun (how long until you can stop blocking), and Magenta for Knockdown (how long until you can get up). Mastering this bar will allow you to know what can be done when, furthering your combo game.

Heavy attacks (especially sweep kicks if you can land them) have much higher hitstun and can be used for great combo potential.

that would be your frame bar. it tells you when you can and can't use moves, and how long it will take before you can.

You do! just input the attack you want to do while on the ground and you will use it instead of getting up! This buffer system also works for hitstun and blockstun, where inputting a command will use it on the first possible frame.

Moves with white glow, such as Tenchi's Kick Launcher and Naiomi's Pilliar and Pilliar EX, are un-counterable, and can sometimes get you a few nice and safe hits off.

diagonal/hold down and forward/back, and hit A/B

Calm down, it's just something that you need to get used to. you need to hold a button down a bit to get the special. your character will auto start the attck once the command is in, so i reccoment holding the button down until you see the special start.

you need to use your special attacks. if they are still blocking after one, fire another in quick sucsession. this should break thier block and do damage with specials until they stop blocking for a while. you can extend this time by making them block normal attacks as well.

Tenshi is your basic Ryu character, equipped with projectiles, antiair, light rushdown, etc. He has forward and backwards dashes.

Mainly street fighter, but many fighting games have a general all around character like this.

*sigh* You gain meter as tenshi by spamming using specials. every special gives you one meter piece. 6 will give you Rumble Fireball.

Rumble Fireball is a 4-Hit attack! it can be used for virtually anything, but you do NOT want your opponent blocking it, making it useless. Well, it CAN do 1-2 points of chip damage, but if it doesn't finish them off, they can easily punish! Also, you dont want those 6 points to go to waste, so try and time it in a place where it is almost a guaranteed hit! (at the end of your opponent's jump, for example.)

Forward-Light: Fireball: used for spacing and sometimes as a general combo ender/chainer.
Back-Light: Air Antlers: Used to stop jump attacks in a safe way.
Forward-Heavy: Charge Antlers: Used to get up close, and also to punish those who try and escape from fireball spam.
Back-Heavy: Kick Launcher: Used to throw someone into the air if close, as a diagonal anti air, and even as a solid multihit attack.

Naiomi is your rushdown character. She has much faster attacks and multihit specials. However, she lacks ranged moves.

Almost EVERY fighting game has a rushdown character, but Naomi seems to be based on Terry Bogard from the King of Fighters series.
