Prompt

I'm interested in having a 'special move' system. this will involve hitting a 'specials' button when a meter is filled. the key thing to defining what the specials are for the brawler and the jiu-jitsu... they need a charging special animation and a special execution animation. in creation, i think the specials should each be multi-hit (e.g. 3-4 hits) and not just a single hit. we should also consider what an 'effect' is when a hit lands or an attack is unleashed - but specifically specials usually have a 'combo'...
