In Progress Streets of Rage X (Windows / Android) Beta 35

[SilentMRG]

I know that Shiva doesn't use weapons in SoRX because he understands himself to be "the weapon." But I want to make a suggestion: It would be cool if he could at least throw the weapons.
This behavior exists in SoRR with Mr. X.

Finally, I have a second suggestion: It would be nice if the buttons in the menu corresponded to the remapping. I mean, I play on the keyboard and "J" is a key I don't use, but it's there at the bottom of the menus.

That's all.

In SOR 4, Shiva could throw the weapon into the air to fire a sort of “shot” at his opponent
(he could also deflect anything flying toward him)

Exactly! I had forgotten about that. It would be cool to see that mechanic for Shiva in SoRX. =)

I can test it, thanks for the suggestion

Currently the key info corresponds to the action in-game, not a button exactly. In this example, "J" is jump as well as "S" is special and "A" is attack.
I applied this logic to keep the same pattern of the Android touch buttons.

In addition, it may confuse players to navigate in the menus or in the select screen in case all 4 controllers use different configurations (like p1 using B to quit from the select screen to the main menu and p2 using F).

I'm still thinking of a way to solve it in future updates, thanks for pointing it out.

It's already possible to hit thrown weapons (or pick up them in the air, heroes only), but they will just fall on the ground instead of reverting the attack direction.
