It's so surreal that OP is just a bit younger than me and he doesn't know any of the classic 2D combat games. I swear there's such a huge divide between millennials born in the 80's and millennials born in the 90's.

I do, Double Dragons 2 was one of the first video games I played as a kid. It seems so simple now, I mean, you got that spin combo and that's about it besides punch punch kick.
