1. HOW TO PLAY
===============================================================================

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
ABOUT
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (US: JoJo's Venture) is a new 2D fighting game

by Capcom which uses the CPS III arcade board. The game is based on the
third installment of the JoJo manga and the OVA.
This games implements the new original "Stand" feature. Each
character (Stand-user) possesses his own Stand, which fights together
with him. Not only can the Stand assist the Stand-user in battle, but
should the Stand sustain any damage, the Stand-user is also affected.
Capcom has created an innovative fighting game which is easy to pick up
and fun to play.

This FAQ is meant to be a beginner's guide to the game. It introduces

the basic gameplay features and provides the necessary moves so that
everyone (including beginners) can fully enjoy the game.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BASIC CONTROLS
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

[GAME CONTROLS LAY-OUT]

Joystick Buttons
-------- -------

UB U UF
\ | / (A1) (A2) (A3)

Low Jump - Tap Up
Middle Jump - While dashing, tap Up

[BUTTON CONTROLS]

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure uses a simple 4-button interface. There are 3

attack buttons and a Stand button.

A1 - Light Attack
A2 - Medium Attack
A3 - Heavy Attack
S - Stand Button

Throw - Forward + A3 (when close)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
GAME SYSTEM
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

[SUPER GAUGE]
Explanation: This is the typical Super Gauge that appears in most fighting
games. This bar will increase as you perform various moves
and when you attack your opponent.
You will start with 1 Level at the beginning of every match,
and you can stock up to 9 Levels.
The Super Gauge is mainly needed to perform your character's
Super Moves and Tandem Attacks.

[RECOVERY]
Command: Press A+A
Explanation: Press any 2 Attack buttons when your character is
knocked into the air for an air recovery. This is used to
get out of air-juggle combos.
You may also make use of the Joystick to control the
direction which you would like to recover.

[DODGE] * Cannot be performed during Stand Mode

Command: Press all 3 Attack buttons
Explanation: Your character will slide forward for a short distance.
During this period, he is partially invincible. Used for
dodging attacks and getting behind your opponent.

[ADVANCING GUARD]
Command: While guarding, press all 3 Attack buttons
Explanation: Performing the Advancing Guard while guarding your opponent's
attack will 'push' him away.
 [GUARD CANCEL]
Command: While guarding, perform D,DF,F + A
Explanation: This cancels your character's guard and he will immediately
counter your opponent's attack with a move of his own.
However, this will sometimes fail if you execute the guard-
cancel when your opponent is performing a move with multiple
hits.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
STAND SYSTEM
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

[STAND GAUGE]
Explanation: This is the small gauge which is found below your Life bar.
By pressing the S button, you can call upon your character's
Stand. During this period (Stand Mode), if your character
receives damage or guards an attack, the Stand Gauge will
slowly decrease. When the Stand Gauge is completely depleted,
this will result in a "Stand Crush" (somewhat like a "Guard
Crush" in other fighting games). Your character will be
stunned momentarily and is vulnerable to your opponent's
attacks.
The Stand Bar will then quickly regenerate, and once it is
full, you may start using your Stand again.

[STAND MODE]
Command: Press the S button.
Explanation: Pressing the S button will turn on your Stand, which will fight
alongside your character. This will put you in "Stand Mode".
While in Stand mode, your character's reach and power will be
improved because of the help of his Stand.
You can also perform certain actions/Special/Super Moves which
you cannot normally perform without a Stand (such as double-
jumping).
Certain moves will also have a different effect when you are in
Stand Mode.
If your opponent tries to guard your normal attacks when you are
in Stand Mode, he will still receive block damage.
Pressing the S button a second time will 'turn off' your Stand
and the Stand Gauge will start to regenerate. Use this when
your Stand Gauge is running low before you get "Stand Crushed".

[STAND APPEARANCE ATTACK]

Command: D,DF,F + S
Explanation: This is also another way of turning on your Stand. The only
difference between this and simply pressing the S button is
that your Stand will perform an attack just as he appears.
Use this in a combo to surprise your opponents.

[STAND COMBOS] * Stand Mode only

Command: Refer to individual character's Move List.
 Explanation: During Stand Mode, your character's Stand has the ability
to chain his normal attacks together to perform rush combos. This
basically follows the Light-to-Heavy Attack order found in most
fighting games.
Each Stand has its own special Stand Combos which can be found with
each character's Move List. However, there are many more variations
that can be discovered by experimenting.

[CONTROL STAND] * Stand Mode only

Command: Forward + AA
Explanation: By entering this command, you will be able to take control of your
character's Stand. During this period when you are in control of the

Stand, your character will simply stand still and is open to your
opponent's attack. If the Stand you are controlling gets hit during
this period, the Stand Gauge will decrease and this will also count
as damage to your character's health gauge.
Once the Stand Gauge is reduced to zero, your Stand will disappear
and you will be controlling your character once again.
But of course, you can also choose to revert back to controlling
your
character anytime by pressing the S button to 'turn off' your Stand.
*Note: Only the following characters' Stands can be controlled
- Avdol, Kakyoin and Polnareff

[TANDEM ATTACK] * Uses 1 Super Gauge Level

Command: D,DB,B + hold S -> Input command -> release S
Explanation: After performing the command and holding down the S button,
the game will freeze for a few seconds. During this period, you
can input various normal/Special attacks with the joystick and
the attack buttons.
Once you release the S button, your Stand will rush forward and
perform all the attacks you have programmed in succession for a
huge combo.
In the meantime, your character is free to move about, so you
can gang up with your Stand to attack your enemy for more damage.
