CNET Editors' review
For fast play in a Street Fighter-style environment, Little Fighter seems to have punched and kicked its way to the top. Fitting in with its retro feel, you play a small character with a big head--reminiscent of the Japanese "chibi" designs--and fight against the computer or a friend, one-on-one or in a melee.
The control keys are simple and customizable to your preferences, but it's not a hard game to learn. You can move up, down, left and right; you can attack, defend and jump. That's it. No more, no less, and yet some users claim that Little Fighter can suck them in for hours at time. You also can have up to four people playing off the same keyboard simultaneously--a charmingly quaint touch.
The English translation of the game leaves more than a little to be desired, so it will take some messing around to understand how it works. We found the Web site to be unhelpful, but reprogramming the keys to ones we were comfortable with made everything easier. The game is also slow to load at times, but we can see how Little Fighter can get addictive in a big way.
Publisher's Description
From Marti Wong:
Little Fighter 2 (LF2) is a popular freeware fighting game for Windows. LF2 was created by Marti Wong and Starsky Wong. Its popularity has been substantial thanks to its simple yet addictive gameplay, its great replay ability and free at the point of use availability. The game can have up to 4 human players on one computer and 8 characters in network play at one time. Game modes include VS mode, Stage mode (where 1 or more players move through the environment killing increasing numbers and difficulties of enemies), Championship mode and Battle mode (involving mass armies led by a player).
What's new in this version: Version 2.0a fixes a graphics card compatibility bug.

"Setup setup setup, screens screens screens. And noise"
Version: Little Fighter 2.0a
Pros
None; I couldn't even get it to work.
Cons
Too many preparation steps before you arrive somewhere. While you struggle and guess what to do to make this thing work, you are persecuted by loud horrible sophomoric music (to call it music) you can't turn off, apparently.
Summary
I tried three times to go through all the many setup screens, each one with unclear or non existing instructions. The screens never seem to end. The convoluted setup process suggests that organized, methodic thinking is not a requisite to be a computer programmer.
When I finally arrive at the "Start Fight" condition, my warrior does not react to my commands. It just stays there, to be beaten by the computer character. Really nice.
I'm obviously not qualified to deal with this contraption. I'll go back to U to study rocket science and neurosurgery and then I'll try again to set this peace of junk up. For the moment, I am uninstalling it. Enough is enough.
