Welcome, one and all SAGE fans, to...
Battle Craze!! is a 2D fighting game which emphasizes animation, character, and intense arcade-style gameplay in a world not too different from our own. This version of the game currently runs on SUEHIRO's I.K.E.M.E.N. GO engine.
Battle Craze follows the events of the Battle Craze Tournament Series, a martial arts competition that takes place every five years, with the best of the world willing to compete. Although, something else draws those to this tournament. A hidden threat? The promise of wealth? Scores to be settled? For Ajit Sinha, he's here to save the world from a foreseen destruction only known to him, and nothing will stop him.
Keyboard defaults:
A = LP
Z = LK
S = SP
X = SK
D = Grapple macro
C = Craze Technique macro
Q & W = Craze Cancel macros
All controls are configurable for both keyboard and controller.
This version of Battle Craze sports 15 characters to choose from, each with their own motives and fighting abilities. Who will you go for broke with?
AJIT SINHA

FEATURES:
Unique Traits: Each character has a unique status which makes each one stand out from the other. They will either always constantly be active, or are used via their Craze Technique.
Craze Technique: A unique manuver or power for each character that compliments their movelist or Unique Trait, usable by pressing either both Strong buttons, or C (this function's macro button).
Dire Counters: In addition to standard Counter Hits, which will deal extra damage, Battle Craze features Dire Counters, a special counter hit state that allows for stronger combo strings than standard special moves. Dire Counters are a result of hitting the opponent during recovery frames of certain command normals, specials, supers, and during their taunts. After landing a Dire Counter, the next time you use a move with a Dire Hit Property during that combo, the effect will trigger, extending the combo.
Craze Cancel: A global mechanic that uses the Craze Gauge to reset to neutral, with three different variants depending on the situation. Craze Cancels are activated by pressing either LP+SK, LK+SP, or the D and W macro buttons.
Side-C and Side-L: By pressing either Craze Cancel macro button over a character on the character select screen, you can choose between their Side-C and Side-L versions, which alters their Unique Trait, Craze Technique, specials, supers, and even Craze Gauge in rare cases. The changes are minimal, but substantial in how a character is played.
Some characters even boast a secret third side. Can you try to find them?
