Special Input Commands

 When Super Mode is activated, your character will pose as they are
 surrounded with a burst of energy. The burst is able to hit opponent and
 can be used as a counter if blocking. During Super Mode, your character
 will flash a yellowish hue and their attacks will be 2x stronger. "Super"
 will appear under your character's Life Meter; it gradually get smaller and
 eventually fade from sight, thus ending Super Mode. Costs 1 stock of Super
 Meter to use.

- Middle Attack

 Press HP + HK together

 Middle Attacks are attacks that can ONLY be blocked by standing (high). It
 will hit crouching opponent no matter if they are blocking or not.

- Pursuit

 When opponent is on the ground, press u + any regular attack button

 Like in many 3D games, after the opponent is knocked to the ground, your
 character can follow it up with a Pursuit; making your character jump up
 and land on the fallen opponent's body with an attack. If the Pursuit is
 missed, your character will leap back in the air, vulnerable to attacks.

- Quick Recovery

 Press any action button the second right before hitting the ground

 After throws that toss you up in the air, instead of having your character
 crash into the ground, you can quick recover. They will spring off the
 ground and flip to their feet, not taking the full damage from the throw
 and negating any pursuit chances.

- Rising Attack

 Tap u + any regular attack button rapidly after being knocked down

 A Rising Attack is an attack your character can perform as they are
 standing from being knocked down.

- Rebound Attack

 Press any kick button when you hit the wall

 A Rebound Attack is when your character flies into a wall, then leaps back
 at the opponent with a retaliation attack. You don't take damage from
 hitting the wall if you Rebound Attack.

 A Safe Fall is when you hit "catch" the wall, and just fall to the ground
 on your feet. You don't take the damage from hitting the wall if you Safe
