Game modes

Original Mode - The original levels from Dragons of Rage, untouched.

EX Mode - Generally harder version of Original Mode. Enemy spawns increased significantly and boss health doubled, both to compensate for updated gameplay.

Movelists

This mod uses typical BOR buttons: Attack1, Special, and Jump.

• A - Attack button.
• S - Special button.
• J - Jump button.
• F - Forward on the D-Pad/Analog.

All characters use the exact same controls for their moves, though the moves they do are all different.

• AAAAA - Normal attack string.
• S - Break away attack; consumes 50 mp.
• AS/AAS/AAAS/AAAAS - Mid-combo attack; exact same as freespecial.
• FFA - Freespecial; same as mid-combo.
• JA - Jumpattack.
• JA(A repeated) - Multiple jumpattacks; stops moving (if jumping forward) after 1st attack.

Other notes: when you grab an enemy, you will immediately perform grabattacks. Press back and Attack1 while grabbing to throw
