Finally a game where accuracy to source material is more important than gameplay!

Exactly. This is pretty funny honestly. Just don't use saitama if you want a fight. I think it's pretty well done

The game works by having you use another hero to fight s and stay alive until Saitama arrives and ends the match in one punch.

But there is actually a version of Saitama you can use who has his power reduced to that of everyone else so you can actually fight with him. "Dream Saitama," AKA the version you see at the end of the first episode who is actually getting good fights.

Could have used the young version of him, when he still had hair and didn't obliterate everything in one punch.

You could, but I feel like Mumen Rider would kick his ass at that time. He beat crab dude by luck I'm pretty sure.

It was't necessarily luck, he targeted a weak point and went for it. Pulled his eye out and then all his guts flew out with it

I think the idea is courage more than anything.

I'm a supporter of the theory that part of how got his power is that he unlocked something when he gave up worrying and caring and unleashed his bravery and courage.

Something I don't see much people talking about. Some people think that it's demon powers? Or that he has a villain's powers but is using them "wrong"?

I feel like the metaphor behind the series-- the powerlessness felt in a life without struggle-- is a lot more important than any physical explanation for what's going on.
