[MrRussellgro]

This game is NOT made by me. BUT I am helping a friend on Smashboards by giving him ideas. I am the announcer of the game, BTW (my username there is Russell_SSB.) I will update this forum whenever this game get an update. Also, please feel free to give support to the game, or message my buddy on the link if you have Smashboards and give him a hand if you would like to help out on the game by telling him what you can do: https://smashboards.com/members/draco74.311201/ 

Thanks! Please enjoy this post!

Hello guys , I want to present a little fan game which I'm working using the Smash Bros gameplay as a reference (Super Smash Bros saga, Digimon Rumble Arena, etc.).
The project is being developed in Unity engine and 3DS Max for the characters, animations, stages, etc. I can say that the provisional name (or final, I don't know) is "Battle Arena All-Stars".

I have to say that is not a project to win money, only to do in the free times because we love the Smash Bros style  (like Super Smash Flash, for example).

Gameplay

I have thing about the movement and the actions for the character (taking into account that my references are Smash Bros (more simple) and Digimon Rumble Arena (with a little bit more complexity)) and, with these points, I decide to follow the next plan:

1. Movements

Inspired in Smash Bros, the movements of the game will be confortable for the player!

2. Attacks

Use Smash Bros 64 as a reference for the attack actions, but with a little more of simplicity (going to Digimon Rumble Arena).

3. Final Attacks

Sorry for the people who wants final smashes and something like this but, for now, the characters will not have any final attack.

I think that with these points the game can be fun and interesting. The initial idea is not include objects and grabs between the characters (I'm not an expert, step by step). If this game is published and is funny for the people I will add more things.

looking good

Please try to refrain from incredibly short posts like this. If anything, provide a little more elaboration - "Wow, Sora looks great", "The gameplay is smooth", "Maybe you should add ____" etc. "Looking good" doesn't really help the developer any.



That said, I'm actually impressed as this looks like a coherent Smash clone - and while yeah it's currently a bit rough around the edges, it's...actually 3D. dang.

My only gripe here is that this game, while it's a Smash clone, doesn't look very...fast. Part of what makes Smash what it is is the fast-paced gameplay, and this seems...really slow. Characters have long startups for basic attacks, and seem like they take ages to land after a jump.  

Suggest to the developer that he speed the gameplay up about 10~20% if possible. You'll notice that things are a lot more intense as everything's flying about much more quickly, and maybe more...fun overall.

This is looking really nice! I 'm also working on a SSB clone(Just recently started), and i've gotta say, this looks like it'll turn out great. I wanted to ask, are you only using ripped models, or are you also using custom / edited?

The shaders are very well done, good work !
Especially character ones.

Thanks! We are using both ripped AND custom models for the game b/c both is better than just one.
