- Shout-Out: Several of the mock comic covers in the stage select menus are references to '80s and '90s Marvel. For example, the cover for "Land of the Dead" is a homage to New Mutants v1 #38, and the "Pandora's Box" cover features Star, Dolphin, and Trouble imitating the pose from the cover of Uncanny X-Men v1 #268.
- Status Effects: A rarity for a Beat Em' Up, there a conditions both players and enemies can take, usually from damage, such as Bleeding, which makes them take more damage. The status effect's icon is displayed above the character, and it can be turned off in the settings.
- Unique Enemy: Interestingly, this trope comes into play into the final stages. Each one has their own unique assortment of enemies for you to fight.
- Wrestler in All of Us: Being a Beat Em' Up, of course one of the characters can perform the Suplex Finisher, that one being Dolphin.
