KenJu is an unreleased Atomiswave 2.5D fighter made by Dream Factory. A rom for the game was recently discovered, and despite being unreleased, the game is very near finished, having a few minor bugs and couple debatably unfinished characters. The game features 12 characters (14 counting the normally unplayable SekiSyuSai and boss ZINE), a stage for each, and two options for arcade mode as well as versus. In terms of mechanics, the game feels like a more grounded version of Project Justice without any projectiles or teams, a parry mechanic, selectable supers, unique air dashes for each fighter, a meter-based escape from pressure, and others.
