Variations of Ukemi

Neutral ukemi: A neutral ukemi is performed by pressing R or L precisely when a character comes in contact with a solid wall, ceiling, or floor.

Forward ukemi: A forward ukemi is performed by tilting the control stick in the direction you were hit from at the same time you press R or L for the ukemi. You will perform a forward roll right after recovering, usedful for dodging. The forward or reverse ukemi cannot be performed on ceilings or walls.

Reverse ukemi: A reverse ukemi is performed by tilting the control stick opposite the direction you were flung from at the same time you press R or L for the ukemi. You will perform a backward roll right after recovering, useful for dodging. The forward or reverse ukemi cannot be performed on ceilings or walls.

Double Reverse Ukemi: An ukemi performed on a wall after rebounding off a wall on the oppsite side. good for confusing the enemy, and keeping distance after being hit by a powerful blow.

Double Vertical Ukemi: An ukemi performed on the ceiling after rebounding off the floor or vice-versa. Good for alternate approaches on the foe.
