Street Fighter Alpha Warriors' Dreams is the perfect portable fighting game. The graphics are
great for Game Boy Color, and the animation is pretty good, too. It has that unmatchable 8-bit
charm.
Diagonal jumping is not always responsive, but the good news is that the game has a good
variety of moves, controls, and especially options. With only two buttons on Game Boy,
Capcom had to do some thinking as to how to incorporate so many moves. The system they
came up with works well.
While medium attacks would not fit in the game, you alter between light and hard attacks by
tapping or pressing the A and B buttons. If you press A and B together, you can execute super
combos. Special moves are executed by pressing A or B plus the D-pad.
Hard-core SF fans will be pleased to hear that you can play as Charlie before he becomes the
more famous Blanka character.
Other characters are Ryu, Chun-Li, Guy, Sodom, Birdie, Adon, Rose, Dan, and M. Bison. Are
there secret characters? Who knows? Capcom deserves a pat on the back for this one.
