Changes to game play

Playing as Shadow forces the player to controller their previously defeated opponent. Playing through the game in Shadow mode will give players an alternate version of the credits that feature every character's versus portraits in sepia tone. If the player ranks on the high score table, a question mark, "?," will appear instead of a character image and name.
