02/03/2021 - A New Style Of Fighting Game


Welcome To FIST-EM (Working Title)

This a prototype for a different kind of fighting game. Most fighting games these days rely on combination inputs, super meters, and all manner of other things. But this is different.

The inputs are tailored more towards controllers than fight sticks, and directional inputs are not welcome here. Instead the player should focus on their positioning, their attacking, defending, and stance.

Premise Blurb Over, What's Actually Up

Itch won't let me post WebMs, so here's a direct link to Imgur.

Currently there's two players that can run towards each other. They can crouch, crouch walk, block, and dodge side-to-side and backwards. Jumping is a bit buggered right now, but that'll get fixed soon.

Multiple controller support for local 2-player play is currently being fixed, hence why in that video the players are mirroring each other.

What's Next?

  • Fix the controller/input problems
  • Test the animation systems
  • Add attack animations
  • Add stances and relevant attacks

Keep in mind, this is only meant as a prototype, so don't expect a fully fledged game here.
