Naw man, see there's a difference between a fighting game and this game. In a fighting game, you fight. In a punching game, you fuckin' punch until there ain't no more punch to give.

gotcha.

Gunzet actually has a point. When I started this game it was more like punch out! than an actual fighting game.

[CypressDahlia]

It's not Punch Out if it doesn't have Mike Tyson in it.

[jubeh]

You could argue the placeholder sprite is just a multicolored mike tyson.

[butternut]

@Cyp: not this kind for a long long time.

@Jubeh: maybe you should name one mike or tyson, in his honor.

Just played this. Music and the graphics are greatstuffness.

Gameplay feels... odd. Maybe it's just because you can't jump?... Either way I managed to beat it pretty easily in one sitting, only loosing once. Seeing as it's not very long, making it harder probally wouldn't kill it. The up/down punching system, on the other hand, I really liked.

It's a good 'un. :o

ty I want to make a super cheap endboss which will increase the length slightly as well as a short scene between each fight ala street fighter or guilty gear to help the pacing a bit.

Edit: Regarding the gameplay feeling odd, it probably is the lack of jumping. This game is about poking and counter hit damage, and not so much about zoning.

Now to make this online and host an MT Punchionship.
