Twinkle Queen, the new Milestone crossover fighter featuring characters from various visual novels, will incorporate elements from many other established fighting games. The game will be a 2-on-2 fighter, allowing players to switch out characters throughout fights, including while being hit, blocking, or during a combo. While attacking, players will also be able to tap forward twice to dash out of an attack animation and continue a combo. The most risky gameplay feature lets players tap forward in order to cancel out an incoming attack and counterattack immediately. More after the jump.
