third level is easiest, just stand there and when the colors start to appear below u, jump, if timing correct u'll dodge. no lives lost there. the boss and level 2 should be no sweat either. first level is glitchiest and annoying
i agree that there should be a money system. for every match you win depending on your opponents rank and a certain formula of other little things (ie damage taken, etc) to end up with a certain ammount of money you get every round, and you can then spend the money in a store to buy cards
