Crisis Moon: The Bloody Symphony

Crisis Moon: The Bloody Symphony is a 2D fighting game published and developed by Orange Soft. Released for Arcades (System 201), PC and the Samsung X-EYE. It is the first non-exclusive Orange Soft title since Fight or Die 3: Fatal Vengeance.

Gameplay
The game uses a four-button system similar to that of Code Chronos', with two buttons for light and heavy attacks, one for special moves and one for blocking.

Each player has a Luna meter which, when filled to a certain level, allows players to use supers, or "Lunar Drives", as well as a Vita meter which decrease as the player blocks attacks. When the player's Vita meter is depleted, the player cannot block until the Vita meter is fully replenshed. At the top of the screen, below the time limit counter, is the Blood Sphere, which fills up as the fight continues. In a match point round, when the Blood Spehere is full, and the player's Luna meter is at maximum level, the player can perform a "Lunar Requiem" finish to end the match on the spot.

The game also features "breaks" which allow the player to interrupt an opponent's attack or combo with an unblockable flash attack, by pressing the attack button that the opponent uses for their attack (light, heavy or special) and the block button slightly before the opponent's attack hits. There are two kinds of breaks: the Vita Break, a non-damaging variant which consumes Vita, and the Blood Break, which causes a small amount of damage and instead uses the Blood Sphere. Blood Breaks also require more precise timing than Vita Breaks.

Story
For every 10 years, as the moon turns blood red, Count Godfried Dominus hosts a tournament to determine the strongest amongst the others, dubbed as the Crimson Carnival. As the blood moon rises once again, Dominus deems it worthy to revive the Crimson Carnival once again.

And so the Crimson Carnival commences once again...
