Re: Need tips on making a fighting game

By games I meant the fighting genre you don't see people making soul calibur like games or any other fighting games on the computer Mmm... guess why :). And it's not exactly true, there are smaller fighting game projects coming out on PC, but they're more "traditional", following the Marv...

Re: Need tips on making a fighting game

Believe it! Naruto, shoot. :explodes: Monty Python moment? I wonder... on the computer world people work hard then give up and release a game without caring what will happen to the series I disagree with that statement! Did anyone give up on Sly Cooper ? The Sims ? Ratchet & Clank ? Pong ? Sinc...

Re: Need tips on making a fighting game

You'd have to start from semi-scratch to make a fighting game. If you're integrating it with Ren'Py, this basically means renpygame. Otherwise, you have various options. Piglet, Pygame, SDL, Allegro, OpenGL, DirectX... there are plenty of libraries that let you draw to the screen, in 2D and/or 3D. ...

Need tips on making a fighting game

I have been trying to make a game like the Super smash bros. series and I have tried using mugen like my friends said but it didn't work with making this game.

Could someone give advice on making the game and/or what I need to make it?
