That 3-star Rage attack is PERFECT now! Still a few issues to address. Namely, the rumble seems to get stuck and constantly rumbles. I'm not sure if it's anything that can be fixed, but it's workable. Also...

I don't mind a combo to use the Cop Call function, but, at the the way I play, I have the Extra button to the left bumper and set to use the Back Attack feature. Unfortunately, I've triggered the SOS attack too often. I think it should be either remappable for the combo and/or to a less-used combo like Extra+Defense.

Don't get me wrong, you have an AMAZING game here already! It's so much fun! But I want to help it be the best it can be, so I do have to at least point things out. :)

Thanks for the feedback!
I didn't understand the "rumble" issue... Can you please give a few more details? We can talk about it in the SORX forum topic, maybe a video can help me to understand.
About the Cop Call I can think about other ways to use it, thanks for the suggestion.
It is still the best SoR game available and keeps getting better!
I keep getting back to it more than SoR4. (At least here you can run, block and dodge.)

There are so many things you can customize in the menu. You can make it closer to SoR4, SoR remake or classic SoR, changing and tuning many options and features to your liking.

The juggle and cancelling system make it super fun to play doing big combos and and punishing those goons. The block, dodge and counter with this combo system make boss fights really interesting and fun as bosses don't have constant armor.

Once you unlock the other game mode you can play with basically any character in the game. It has good replay value.

If you are a SoR fan there is no reason not to enjoy this great game.

(Rating is 4.5; no half star option though.)

I have come back to this with Beta 30 and I stand by what I said back in August. This is on par with Streets of Rage 4 as a package. In some ways, it actually outdoes that game. The mechanics connect well and are polished to a sheen!

...Except for a few parts. The 3-Star Super Attack is the main issue I have. For one, it's hitbox feels too small. At least with Axel, it LOOKS like it hits enemies in a circle, but it doesn't. The second issue is that, if I've grabbed an enemy, I can't use said attack. Paired with the hitbox issue and the foes moving around, it has always felt too janky and unreliable to use consistently.

One thing I personally would like to see is a Composite Video filter. The heavy amounts of dithering on the original hardware was because of the 61 simultaneous colour palette out of a max of 512 possible colours. So Composite Video blended a dithered picture to either make more colours or allow transparency, which the Genesis is not natively capable of.

Thanks for the report. About the points:

- Rage attack hitboxes: they are following the sprite size with some small increment depending on the character's movement. Plus you can easily connect any rage using the cancelling system.
Specifically for SOR3 Axel, this was developed to be a frontal attack, not a circular or expansive attack like SOR4 Axel. As a suggestion using Axel, you can easily connect a "ground upper" with the rage move by simply pressing the energy button while the "ground upper" is hitting the opponent. It's safe and very effective.
For the next beta 31 I already added the hitbox size a bit for the SOR3 Axel rage, but it stays as a frontal attack only.

- Rage attack during grabs: this feature was added for the next beta 31.

- Composite Video filter: Since this is related to the engine, unfortunately there's not much I can do at the moment. Sorry friend.
Excellent work

Thank you very much, friend.
This game is the best trilogy ever made. Congratulations to the author.
He could also make a version of the abadede of sor1, it would be perfect.

One of the best OpenBor Games I've ever played and it truly captures the original SOR spirit!! I love playing it with my 5 year old son and I'm so glad he can experience a classic game like this. Keep up the wonderful work and I hope there will be some extra playable characters in future releases.

Thanks buddy!
my only inconvenient is that the electrical shok sound effect sounds a bit too much new and not that 16bit, i know og SOR sound for electrical attacks is annoying at times but any other sound effect from another game from the genesis might work

Thanks for the feedback. Your appointment makes sense, I can apply the same solution used for the thunder at the Barbon's Bar exit, I extracted the sound from "The Revenge of Shinobi" game.
