When you get close to your opponent, the camera pans around to mimic the 2D view of a fighting game. It’s a neat trick, and since the environments are always wide open and sparse, the automatic camera never gets stuck behind something to block your view. , which allows fighting games to be played more freely, for example older fighting games which don't have the same perspective will only allow players to move in certain places as they will move of game-play making it almost impossible to play

Player Actions
“chakra”, tai justu and “jutsu” are the three different types of attack that every playable character can use. chakra is essentially mana, jutsu are essentially magic attacks. Chakra is fuel for the jutsu. user will have two types of jutsu, attack and substitution, and each one is managed by its own meter. The substitution jutsu is a kind of defensive counter: It’s only available when you’re being attacked, and it allows you to teleport behind your opponent. You can do this four times before the meter runs out, then you have to wait for it recharge.
The attack jutsu is what actually uses up the chakra meter. You have to “load” the chakra before you can use it in an attack, and this forms the backbone of the combat. Basic actions like dodging, throwing, and attacking are pretty weak, but loading up your chakra first allows you to perform an enhanced version of each action. This quickly drains your chakra meter, but you can recharge it by holding down a button while standing still. the final player action is tai justsu, which is any martial arts combat and movement, each player has different tai justsu style depending on their trainer, but all characters move in the same dimensions, the game creator chose to give characters different styles of fighting to allow user to have a wide variety of different characters.
