Rapid Angel
Rapid Angel is a mix of 2D platformer and beat-'em-up, so the players will explore the levels fighting enemies, collecting power-ups and avoiding traps. While basic moves are the same for all characters (running, double-jumping, using bombs etc.), each girl has her unique fighting style with Natsumi and Ayane relying on physical attacks and Haruna using mostly distance-type magic attacks. Particular fragments of levels and story sequences are different depending on the character chosen by the player. Two more characters are unlocked after beating the game.
In 2-player mode the second player controls an angel-thing that follows the first player's character aiding him along the way.

About This Game
Natsumi, Ayane, and Haruna are couriers at a delivery company called Rapid Angel — fast, professional, and suited to the work. When they are assigned to deliver a set of important blueprints, the job should be routine. It is not. An organization with considerably more resources than three couriers is also after the same documents, which means the blueprints are worth more than the standard shipping rate implies. The girls are going to have to figure out why.
