    v fun fighting game. their weeklies are a great vibe for anyone wanting to dip their toes into tournament play (like me). easy to find casual matches via in-game matchmaking. fun characters, hilarious sound design, well-written story mode with interesting unique mechanics, unlockable secret characters. you can try it for free in browser. i'm confident you'll find the game worthy of monetary support!

    Been playing on and off since day 2 of Beta and still finding enjoyment to this day. Highly accessible game with a devoted Discord community that continuously improves and is always willing to help. Expansive modding capabilities which has a community of its own and is still being developed to this day. Overall, there's something for everyone interested in a fighting game here, regardless of skill.

In addition, the number of people online is generally 7~20. if noone play the game one day, i can't really unlock the skin! b.One unlocked must participate…
