Very poorly.

I'll write up a review tomorrow.
I haven't gotten to play much, but although this game is pretty buggy in places, it's a nice breath of fresh air. It's basically Mass Effect meets Yakuza meets Hong Kong triad action movie, decently polished (aside from the bugs), and something about it makes me strangely nostalgic for early-2000s RM games. After I play more I will leave more detailed feedback/bug reports, and possibly write a review if psy_wombats' one enrages me or something

It would be great if you could tell me what bugs you've noticed. I only noticed a few minor ones, such as passable objects.

It's bacially like this:

A (hold) - fix direction
S - Punch/Double-Punch
D - Kick
F (hold) - Guard (fixed direction)
S + S + D - Guard Breaker (combo that breaks the enemy's guard)

Even though the controls are very simple (the game was a contribution to a German contest with a time limit of two month), the game quickly becomes extremely challenging.

Very poorly.

I'm looking forward to your review, even though I hope that you don't mix up the hard difficulty and the combat system itself.
