Wow... pretty nice.

It's certainly more entertaining than the majority of the MUGEN pieces I've played.

I'll actually play this a bit more later and will look forward to future updates.

Looks pretty impressive for a homebrew title based on an anime.
Whoever did those sprites did a pretty good job (they look a little like the DBZ sprites from the SNES games in style though, probably not a bad thing) (that is if anyone actually made them and they arent from another game.)

I would go in and change the special move effects and such. Custom ones would probably look alot better than ones ripped from street fighter and such.

The life bars and stuff could be better too.

Wow! Downloading it now, but based on the screenshots it looks great! :) Looks like the lifebars, power meters are from KoF 2000. One suggestion just looking at the screenshots, maybe use different and closer up head shots up by the power bar. Small thing yea, but could look alot better.

Can't wait to give this a try... :)

But we created original moves, obviously..

I am, if you let the intro play all the way through at boot up it seems to help.

Played a little more and really like of what I see. God damn the DMs in this game are sweet, especially Rauls!

:buttrock:

Here are a few more bugs I have run into, not sure if they are known or not, I will try to provide as much info on each as possible.

- 2 times (both vs. Ken) in Story mode, the opponent sprite disappeared and I could see his shadow at the top of the screen. If I walked over to where it looked like he should be he couldn't hit me, but I could score hits on his invisible body.

- Went into the 'watch' mode and select Ken vs Ken. Match played, but at the end of the match, my computer locked up and the screen went dark.

- Using King Raul I have accidently jumped from one edge of the screen back onto the opposite (can't duplicate it though), is this intended (a move)?

Hope those help... if you are not looking for this type of feedback sorry. Just let me know if you aren't. Awesome work! I can't wait to see how this project moves forward...

FUCK YEAH!

Thats sooooooo good! The KOF Sprites are used so fantastically! There recognizable but completely different!

OH and the super moves, brilliant! i love the ones where images appear and stuff the more elaborate the better in my opinion Bigger is Better!

Now just a couple of points, although tbh its that damn good i hate to.

1. sound samples could and should be better.

2. remove the KOF Round 1 and Fight commentator try get something original.

3. Hit detection is off on some moves.

Thats it really, except for more characters which it sounds like your doing anyway.

Anyway keep it coming! I'm gonna have another crack at it now! :)

Just thinking Exploding heads would be good! Maybe everyone has one move and if you finish the other person with it then you get the exploding head or whatever you know.
