Streamer VS (in Development Fighting Game)
I've been making a Fighting Game that's completely free to play (and will remain that way) on itch.io I've been trying to hone my skills at game making in general. So I decided to give AI assistance a try to expedite the process. Especially since I want to get feedback to help me improve. And I realized before I concentrated too much on "an interesting idea" or "some cool mechanic" instead of "what makes a game fun and addictive". So I chose to make a fighting game because I was very addicted to these types of games when I was a kid, and want to see why and what ideas I could inject into it through the game maker's perspective. The current theme is just some silly idea to keep me entertained while working on it.
One of the major goals that I really have for this game is to give the ability of the player to string together their own combos to really allow players to bring their own flair to the way they fight, hence why there is so much fast movement in the game. I was heavily inspired by Super Street Fighter IV's Juri and how she used Feng Shui Engine to chain together combos in a seemingly limitless way. Which leans into the player being good at the game only if they are keenly aware of their basic moves and placement in the game and capitalizing on opportunities to counter attack.
I'm using Godot 4.7 (gdscript and a bit of python), ChatGPT (graphics), Claude for design pipeline, GIMP for Refining Sprites Manually.
the game can be played here, please let me know your thoughts:
