Daemon Bride: Additional Gain Arcade

The game takes place in a school named "Kyoritsu Stella" where students received Contracts from the higher beings to reshape the torn world after a certain incident. Those receiving the Contract of Angel want to use the power to protect the world.
Those who receive the Contract of Demon want to use the power for their personal gain, though most of the time they're not necessarily evil. This obviously led to a clash between both sides.
The game includes 14 playable characters, split into two factions: those who have a contract with Angel Brides and those who have a contract with Demon Brides.

The main characters/rival setting include Kuon Sumeragi of the Angel side, helped with Angel Michael, and Reizei Abane of the Demon side, helped with Demon Lucifer. And in case you're wondering, despite the names, the helpers are female. But aside of them, the game also offers various characters too.

The Brides of the Demon side, almost all but one of them being named after the Seven Princes of Hell (Belphegor was not included at all in this game but was replaced by Astaroth as the Demon of Sloth).

The game is a 4 button one:

A: Light Attack

B: Heavy Attack

C: Bride Attack

D: Boost

Throw: AD

Teching: 4 or 6+A, B, C

Augmented Recovery: D (when knocked down)

Bride Reflect/Pushblock: BC (when blocking)

Bride Aura/Burst: ABC

Bride Counter/Alpha Counter: 6AB

The heart symbol under a character's health fills up during the match, then gives you a stock when full. The 4 stock levels are 1, 2, 3, and MAX. As it fills, your Bride Attacks will power up. Bursts cost one stock. When you lose a round, you will gain a stock at the beginning of the next.

The blue bar at the bottom of the HUD is tied to your Bride. It depletes when using Bride Attacks, Boosts, and Bride Reflects. Once emptied, there is a cooldown period.

The green bar underneath the Bride Meter is your standard fighting game super meter. It can be used for EX Moves, Bride Counters, and supers when full.

Boosts are the crux of your movement in Daemon Bride. They can be done on the ground or in the air with any direction and the D button. Boosting lets you move around in the air and go through projectiles. It depletes the Bride Meter.

Pressing D when knocked down lets you recover faster with a Boost. Like Boosting, it depletes the Bride Meter.

By pressing BC while blocking, you can push away the opponent and make room. This depletes the Bride Meter.

Pressing ABC in hitstun will let you burst out and enable counterattacks. This depletes the Bride Meter faster than other systems.

Pressing 6AB while blocking will let you get out of pressure and counterattack. This costs one Force Meter stock.

All of your physical specials can be enhanced when done with AB. This costs one Force Meter stock.

If you are in the final round, have less than 20% health, and have three stocks of Engagement Meter, pressing ABC will let you enter Climax. Damage and Force Meter gain is increased in this state. You can do your super without having a full bar in this state, and it will be enhanced. Doing so will end Climax.

Throws are 4F startup. They behave similarly to Arcana Heart:

5A+D/6A+D/Front Throw launches them into the air for a combo followup

4A+D forces a knockdown and a sideswap.

The cast is very balanced and a lot of fun to play with given their unique designs, tools, and playstyles.
