4) MOVE DESCRPITIONS
--------------------
SWORD SPIN
Jack spins his swords in midair for about 2 seconds. This can double as a
limited flying tactic. And you can combo off this somewhat.
DRILL KICK
He spins Dhalsim-style towards his opponent. This will hit up to 4 times and
cause them to drop their gems.
"ELECTRIC" ATTACK
This only seems to have an effect on midair opponents. The sparks will hit
about 5 times.
SPIN AND SLIDE
Jack spins once around the pole then launches towards his opponent with a
sliding kick.
WALL JUMP
Jack gets double the airtime with this one. It takes him sometimes over the
top of the stage.
FOOT THROW
He juggles them with his feet and tosses them away. Counts as a 2-hit combo.
POWER FUSION MOVES
------------------
ROLLING SLASH
Extends his swords into a "wheel" that hits multiple times. This zooms onto
his opponents' position at the start of the move.
ROUND SLASH
Does a single revolution with one of his swords and has a nice hit range.
MISERY RAIN
He pauses, glows for about a second, and shoots out 10 sword projectiles
towards his opponents' position.
KILLER DANCE
He pauses for about a second, then spins around about 15 times while going
upward. This is the "Hurricane Kick Super" of the game.

6) VICTORY ICONS
----------------
D - Win with regular move
S - Win with Power Fusion move
P - Perfect win
J - Win by time out
----------------------
7) OBJECTS AND WEAPONS
----------------------
Objects such as pots and chests can be picked up and thrown as weapons. Make
sure you have a clear shot before throw, because a second too long in the
same place can be fatal. Inside the treasure chests are weapons such as guns
and explosives. You can pick these up but your walking speed will be slower.
-----------
8) STRATEGY
-----------
General
If you opponent has two of the stones, try to hit with a drill kick to get
them to drop their stones. A good way to get out of the corner is to use his
wall jump ability to get away.
Vs. Wangtang
His speed is formiddable and his moves the most "Street Fighter" of the game.
Don't let him get all three stones at any cost, because as his street punk
form, he has a 13-hit "raging demon". A very unlucky number, indeed.
Who controls center stage controls the round. Make yourself hard to hit.
