The game is really well polished and I had fun when playing with a friend even tough I'm not that much into fighting games. The graphisms are so cute and the music fits well. Some additional feedback would be great for blocking attacks and it didn't seem natural to me to move backward to block. I also feel like jumping would have been great and it was hard to keep tracks of my lifebar while focusing on the game at the same time. Maybe putting  it at the bottom of the screen would help.

Knowing you can block definitely changes the game from an outright spamfest (which can work if you get the speed powerup!) to something a bit more formal, so definitely agree that should be telegraphed a bit better.
