MK5 (and 2d fighting game fans), I am creating a killer 2D fighting game with Marc Echave and the new website has been launched:

http://www.twisted-fate.com

A demo (and a video) has been added tot he site so you can all see what our game is about. If you like the 2D MK series, you MUST see TF. Our graphics are much more impressive and our game settings and controls are very original. The fights, for example, are just one long round to the death. Be sure to check it out! Feedback is appreciated...

It takes too long for me to download the video file (around 1hr 30 mins), you should get a lower resolution of it, especially for 56k users like me. As for the game, it looks very Impressive so far, graphics Included. And that TF logo rocks! I like it alot. I'm also wondering, how many characters are playable in the game?

We have a 20 characters designed and a boss. We are finishing our 3rd character (Kyndle) now but the demo only has 2 characters - Id & The Dead. We will eventually update the demo with more characters and finishers but we want to finalize these characters first.

I will consider making a smaller sized video file but it will be of lower quality. Check back ina week or so and I'll put another video up.

Geez, you don't need a smaller video file, it isn't that big.

Anyway, I checked it all out, very interesting. What the plan? You going to sell it? Maybe even try to get it on the consoles?

Also, aren't you guys concern with balance? I mean 100 hit combos are fun, to be sure. But doesn't that kinda cheapen the game?

Yeah I dont think I'll end up posting another video. Many people these days have fast connections and I'd rather not have a poor quality video up on the site.

Any combo can be broken so hit numbers really aren't a concern. Like Killer Instinct, combos are a huge part of this game. Typically, the 100+ hits are usually only done in Fatal Combo form although it is possible to reach this high during gameplay, given the power bar is full and the opponent does not break it.

I will not speak too much on what we are doing with the game when it's done because it can start a whole discussion that I really don't want to get into. I will say this, when the new MUGEN version comes out, it may be possible to play it on a platform system (ps2/xbox). We are trying to converse with Elecbyte and other business types to get the neccessary premission and legal rights. Everything of ours is copyrighted - we will worry about the rest as time permits.

Not that I want to spoil anything...But what will the boss look like? And when you get the lower resolution of the video can you please post it smile?

In my last statement I mentioned that I'm not going to make that smaller video. The footage in the video is raw so if I took the quality way down and the music out, it would probably just look like crap. If anyone wants to try it and send it to me (Kazmer@sbcglobal.net) I'd consider posting it.

I will not discuss our boss but we do have a detailed concept sketch made and a few improvments and motifications must be done before his design is considered final. The storyline hints about who the boss may be though...he will definately be an interesting looking and entertaining boss.

I know this seems like an advertisement and I guess it is. I just wanted to notify the MK fans of a game they make like to try.

Yes, that background music was done by my brother's band, COMPLEX. 4 of their songs can be download from the TF site.

Yeah I forgot I showed a finisher in that video, that is one of many. Each guy will have 5-10 finishers each ;)

It's really really awesome. Man, continue your hard work, your game has a great style. This is finally a fighting game that says : "Fuck with that 2 rounds arcade thing" . Develop your own style , work hard, and this game will rock a lot. When it will be completed, we could all sign a petititon list on the internet to show the market that a lot of people want your game on the consoles. I'm sure you could make a great couple of bucks with that. Playing online would be cool too.

As of now, online play is not possible.

Yes the petition idea has been brought to me a few times, also for allowing Elecbyte to let us use their engine. We will deal with that when the time comes, until then I appreciate your support.


Bookmark the site and check back for updates. We will be posting our progress in the news section and as always, our characers will be revealed as we work on them. smile

Another thing is that your characters all look cool. They all have that demonic feel that all connect them well together. They have great names also.

Thank you Mortal-God. It's rare that we get detailed feedback, glad you like the names wink I was thinking about your comment about the feel of the characters and I thought about the other 17 members of our lineup...and that comment wickedly holds true for the entire cast. While they all have a certain devoted madness about them, they are all very different. We can't wait to show you...

help us out on the demo, is there a possible way to make it easier to run, maybe all in one bunch file, set up so it can run on XP without any editing of the files? A whole lot of us have XP, and the game looks real cool. It is just too bad I cannot try it out yet.

Well, sorry, but if this belongs anywhere, it needs to be in the General Discussion forum. Even then, technically speaking it's site advertising, which we do not allow except in signatures. I'll leave it up to the other mods whether this is deleted or not, but I will have to close it at the very least.
