Battle Soccer (neuf)

The shrinking effect on the player sprites is surprisingly detailed, making every super move feel distinct. I spent a whole afternoon just trying to get Kamen Rider to pull off that canary-like rising kick through the onion net.

Lining up a super-powered kick with Kamen Rider and watching the canary sail into the net never gets old, especially when the chibi art style makes it feel like a playful arcade match. The action is fast and the special moves really shake up standard football strategy.

The superhuman moves from the chibi Gundam and Kamen Rider actually work in the gameplay, and the way they can sprint past defenders feels ridiculously fun. Shrunken sprites don't lose any detail on screen, and matches are quick enough to squeeze in during a lunch break.
