Smiley Fighter Basics

Smiley Fighter is a side scrolling action game which revolves around beating your opponents brains out. It’s very simple, really. Each player has a health score, and an energy score.

See the four lines of text at the bottom? That’s each player’s stats. Let’s go over them.

HP

You start off each match with 100 HP. Every time you’re attacked, it goes down. When you or your opponent hits 0 HP, the match is over. Every couple of seconds, you regain one point of HP. Also, if you fall off of the stage, then you have to go back to your original position and you loose a whopping 20 HP.

Energy

At the beginning of a match, you have 0 energy. You can use basic attacks if your energy is under 30, and each basic attack takes up two energy. Also, you recharge your energy very quickly. If your energy goes above thirty, then it is reset to a very high number (averaging about 70), and you have to wait until it goes down again. This is called “burning out”. To use a special attack, you must have exactly 0 energy. Using a special attack automatically burns you out, and some special attacks burn out to higher, or lower numbers.
