Thanks for the feedback! I've experimented with different positions for the block buttons, moving it to the bottom isn't a bad idea. I can test having a setting to toggle different placements for it. If you use a bluetooth gamepad they are mapped to the shoulder buttons so it feels a bit more natural.

Career Mode update is now available for testing! Please keep in mind that the game is still in beta so the career mode is still incomplete. Most of it is functional but some features are missing that will be fully implemented before release. The difficulty ramp is also not tuned so you may face a difficult opponent to start. Please do not get too attached to your fighters as they may get wiped upon installing the final version. Thanks for testing!
