Earth has been decimated by a near-by star explosion, two space colonies are all that survive. Six years pass and the groups become hostile against each other. They begin to build armies just in case things take a turn for the worst, and they do. The armies start to claim each nearby planet and use it as an empire. By now there are millions of people fighting on each side. Planets are surrounded by their teams capital ships and on the ground, there are anti-orbital cannons ready to blast any possible attackers away. Once the whole galaxy has been occupied evenly by both teams, they strike.

You play as your own character with hundreds of people on your team at the same time as you. You go from planet to planet trying to take over the galaxy. There are two types of combat, ground combat, which is similar to the gameplay of Starsiege: Tribe's "Capture and Hold" missions. Then there are Orbital Battles. Up to 5 capital ships on each team fight each other with mac guns and automatic AA guns. They can launch waves of bombers and fighters to take out the ships a little faster.

To take over a planet one must stay in the capture zone for up to 6 minutes. This is 3 minutes to remove the other team's influence of the planet, and 3 minutes to make it yours. If the planet is unoccupied, there is no need to take 6 minutes, 3 will do.

The galaxies fate is in your hands.

]]> 03 Jan 2007 07:23:54 M.U.G.E.N is a free 2D fighting game engine designed by Elecbyte, written in C with the Allegro library. The engine was originally released in July 17, 1999. Beta versions of it were made to work on DOS, Linux and Windows platforms, distributed through their website or to donators via email. With the existence of the Linux version, support for DOS ceased.

The engine allows for anyone to create characters, background stages and other game objects through interpreted text files, graphics, and sound compilations. It supports various types of audio formats such as MP3, ADX, OGG and MIDI as background music during gameplay or at other points such as an introduction or the select screen. The engine allows for most of the same type of functionality found in most any commercial 2D fighting game, up to and including recreation of those games' characters and gameplay (though due to some limitations, exact replication is rarely possible even in a full game for more complex fighting games). While the engine is setup primarily for fighting game development, several other game types have been developed using it, including shooter and platformer style games.

]]> 23 Nov 2006 03:44:49 A collaborative effort between two doujin creators, Tasofro (Tasogare Frontier) and ZUN, this game puts the characters from ZUN's Touhou danmaku shmup in a fighting game. As such, to carry the shmup feeling, most of the game's characters make heavy use of projectile attacks but can also graze enemy projectiles by dashing. Also taken from the shmup games are spellcards. Every round, each character can activate their spell card once which restores a large portion of their life (indicated in red on the life bars) as well as lets them use the spellcard specials. In Story Mode, the computer players will also make use of infinite repeating spellcards that aren't available to the players, often using projectile patterns that look similar to what you might find in the shmup games. The game also introduces a new character to the series, Suika Ibuki.

The game later included the character Hong Meiling against ZUN's wishes, and other fans added multiplayer functionality to the game as well.

]]> 09 Feb 2007 04:43:33 Cyber Gladiators is a 3D fighting game similar to Virtua Fighter or Battle Arena Toshinden. There are 8 characters to choose from that each have around 50 moves to execute. There are a few features that make the game different from others, however. The game will keep tack of your fighting styler, and computer opponents will change their style accordingly. So if you repeatedly punch your enemies in the face, they will eventually learn your style and counter you in the future. There are also certain weapons that you can use depending on what arena you are fighting in. For example, in some of the levels there will be spears thrown into the ring that you can pick up and throw.

]]> 30 Jan 2007 05:43:08 STORY:
In Under Gear, you take the role of one of the many original characters and fight your way through other characters until you fight the evil Saar, A young boy who is the bother to both the striving protagonist, Pilet and ville antagonist Sigma. Both's teams must settle their differences to fight off this new menace.

GAMEPLAY:
This game plays like the all-time favorites: Super Smash Bros Melee. Although it has original and darker characters based in a futuristic setting. One option thats being considered is a multi-player adventure that puts they player in a side-scrolling quest to complete their goals. This mode would be similar to the "arcade" mode, but would only be available to the an and pro tagonist and would be filled with more sub-enemies and tasks.

WTF ITS NOT OUT!?! ! WHY!!!!?:
This game is still under construction due to lack of team members and uncertainty within the crew. This game is completely drawn using mouses and wacom tablets and only includes an animating team of 3, which cannot be on duty at all times. Coding is going smoothly but has to wait on animation during some steps and slows the progress down. Not one character is complete at the moment so animators are needed badly. The game is being made under a zero dollar budget so paying people has to be done through profit. And some of us are considering open-sourcing th game so we may not even earn anything from this.

THIS IS TAKING TOO LONG, CAN I HELP YOU OUT?:
Actually yes. If you want to help complete this beast feel free to PM Joshua Leonard with your request. We could really use it anyhow.

]]> 02 Jun 2007 05:05:49 Batman Forever is a beat 'em up game based on the movie of the same name. The Super NES, Sega Mega Drive, and Game Boy versions were developed by Acclaim Studios London and published by Acclaim Entertainment the Sega Game Gear and PC versions were developed by Probe Entertainment. The player plays as either Batman or Robin. There is also a fighting game mode called "training mode" where the player can play as Batman, Robin, or any of the enemies found throughout the game against either a computer-controlled opponent, against a second player, or cooperatively against two computer opponents.

Unlike most beat 'em up games, Batman Forever's controls are largely based on move lists and key sequences more common in fighting games. Some gadget moves involve moving away from the enemy right before pressing a punch or kick button, which creates problems since the game only keeps the players facing enemies if they're close enough to each other. Those moves would often just turn the player around and cause the move to not execute at all, and while most are close-range abilities anyway, this presents a more major problem with Robin's Heat Gun, which would appear to be intended as a long-range projectile attack to complement Batman's Electric Pellet.

The gadget list is selected by the player each level, with three standard gadgets for each character and two gadgets selected from a list. There are also four hidden "blueprint" gadgets.

The Super NES and Genesis/Mega Drive versions of the game present very glaring differences. The two most prominent ones are the constant load screens (where the game will display "HOLD ON") on the Super NES version, and the much more forgiving controls on the Genesis version. Many reviewers cite such difficulty with the Super NES controls that they couldn't even figure out how to use the gadgets, even with the move list in the manual. The PC version is the same as the SNES and Genesis versions but has superior graphics.
