Fan-made SOUL EDGE 2 Game Demo/Beta!

I know that this is a Beta but I'd just like to point out a bug: in character selection for duel it lets you pick Player 1 characters but then goes straight to stage selection and does nothing? Is this just me?
Player 2 needs to choose a character too lol.
 
Well... I knew about this already because beta's of the characters are on Saltybet.

Having downloaded the characters and given them a go myself... well... it doesn't take much inspiration from it's source, and I can see glaring balance issues such as Astaroth's low light punch, which is a half-screen, 5-frame uppercut with his axe, but is also somehow a low? And then also somehow hits aerial opponents?

It needs a lot of work, and if it were me, I would slow it down a little and, even if it's simply recycled animations at varying speeds, I would try to add some directional attacks and strings just to give it somewhat of a more Soul feel... And I wouldn't be so quick to use the name Soul Edge II either... :S

I didn't download the full game though, I'm just going through the files and testing in FF3, so if this is somehow all different from that .exe, then... yeah.
