GAMEPLAY

Details:

I believe that the gameplay in this game so much fun and so great to play. As you can see in the table below, there are many moves Mac can make despite the limited number of buttons on the NES controller.

Screen Display:

The fighting screen is split up into two sections. The top 1/4 has all the info you'll need to know. You'll see more details about that below. The bottom 3/4 has the fighting action.

Stars: Indicates number of uppercuts Mac had left.
Hearts: When Macs hearts decrease to zero, he can't punch again until he regains strength.
Stamina Meters: Indicates the current stamina level of Mac and his opponents.
Elapsed Time: Indicates the elapsed time in the current round.
Round: Indicates the round you're fighting in the current bout.
