Newsboy Legion Showdown

Newsboy Legion Showdown is a fighting game project featuring the Newsboy Legion based on the similarly-titled story.

Plot
Based on the story Newsboy Legion Showdown, the Newsboy Legion is invited to fight each other in a tournament created and hosted by Sean Strongarm, CEO of the National Wrestling Foundation.

The player's character is put into a series of fights until they beat their opponent at the finals. Suddenly, during the ceremony, Thunder, Fire and Waruta appear and one of them challenges the player. After that fight, Alfonso appears but he's also defeated by the player. Without any more interruptions, the player's character gets declared winner.

Gameplay
The game is a 1v1 2D fighter at the style of similar games of the genre like Street Fighter and King of Fighters. Every character has Light and Heavy auto-combos, grab, counter and the ability to charge up energy. Every character also has special moves that can use by performing more complex inputs, as well as Super Moves that require Energy Bars to use. At low health (30% or less), gauge will fill up faster and at fullest, which is 5 Bars, it is possible to use a Finisher Move which will turn the tables greatly if it lands.

Arcade Mode
A single player mode where the player goes through a series of fights

Versus Mode
Up to two players. It is possible to play 1v1 and 3v3 matches. In the latter, you can create a team of 3 characters.
