Bravery
STORY:
In Pocket
Bravery, a strange phenomenon happened in the world. But only a few people
are able to feel and manifest it. There are those who throw energy through their
hands, others reinforce their muscles, while certain specialists transfer their
essence to objects and weapons. Nobody understands exactly what is happening and
everyone tries to discover this mystery in their own way. In the middle of all
this, Matilha, a criminal organization, wants to steal ancient artifacts and
relics that involve several nations and notable individuals.

Pocket Bravery uses a
4-button layout, two for punches and two for kicks. The game features traditional
fighting game directional inputs and has an option for simple controls, as well.
Each character has an element that represents their strength, which can be physical or
supernatural. You can accumulate up to 2 attacks on the elemental bar. Through
this system, it is possible to execute elemental attacks that have different
characteristics from the others and bring new offensive or defensive
possibilities for the player. The overall gameplay is designed in an effort to
attract experienced fighting game players, but also introduces features to teach
newcomers to the genre.

In early September
2022, the
developers announced a guest character from the Breakers
series will be joining the Pocket Bravery roster and revealed the
official gameplay trailer for Sho
Kamui. Sho will even get his own beautifully-drawn stage featuring cameos
from the original Breakers cast appearing in the background.

BOTTOM LINE

|
|
|
First
Impression: |
Pocket Bravery looks to
be a charming and exciting indie 2D fighter with tons of heart and retro
inspirations throughout. Not only is the
game inspired by past 2D masterpieces from Capcom and SNK, the gameplay and
animation appear to take certain inspirations even from more modern fighting games of the era
— like TEKKEN 7.
Pocket Bravery's character design, combo system, and smooth animation style are equally
impressive so far. Looking forward to reviewing this one in the near future!
