The character selection screen of Version 0.9 was a big part of its appeal, creating a crossover event that only a fan game could. The roster was a melting pot of icons:

Later versions (1.0, 1.1, and the Beta) added more characters like Bandana Dee and Simon Belmont, and eventually moved away from Flash to a standalone launcher. But many purists argue that was the last version that felt purely like a "browser warrior."

Drawing inspiration from traditional fighting games (like Street Fighter ), the developers ensured that moves had distinct "start-up" and "cool-down" frames. This introduced the concept of "frame data" to the SSF2 community. Players had to learn when it was safe to throw out a move (on shield) and when they would be punished, adding a layer of psychological depth absent in earlier demos.
