 Let's Play Fatal Fury Final Do you like SNK? Do you like Fatal Fury? Have you ever wanted to see Fatal Fury re-imagined as a beat 'em up? You better have, because it's pretty neat. Fatal Fury Final is a decent fan-made tribute with a good heart. What kind of LP is this? Video, post commentary, 100%. No, you won't be seeing every single frame of content, but you will be seeing every game mode and what it has to offer. Why should I care? 2D beat 'em ups have a long history, and they seem to swap ideas back and forth as generously as possible. Streets of Rage and Final Fight massively influenced nearly every game in the genre, but even so, it's relatively hard to find a game that encompasses all of the elements of traditional beat 'em up design. This is where Fatal Fury Final comes in. It has nearly every piece of design I've come to know and love from its ancestors, as well as copious amounts of extra features and playable characters. Who made this game? People collectively named SEEP, who appear to be deeply in love with the genre. That's enough exposition, let's wreak some vengeance. Path of Vengeance Bout One: Duck King  Side Bout: Mighty Final Fight  Bout Two: Richard Meyer  Side Bout: Mystical Fighter  Bout Three: Michael Max  Side Bout: WWF Betrayal  Bout Four: Hwa Jai  Side Bout: Final Justice  Bout Five: Raiden  Side Bout: Burning Fight  Bout Six: Billy Kane  Side Bout: Power Rangers Samurai  Final Bout: Geese Howard  Extras Quest Mode: Justice  Goits of Rage

Hoss Corncave posted:Thought so. I used to follow the BoR community a lot, as it was a fun engine, and OpenBOR added a lot of stuff. I kinda drifted away from it after I didn't have time to make the game I wanted to. Still, Roel and the Senile Team guys are all really nice people, and if you get a chance to play it, Rush Rush Rally Racing is a lot of fun. I'm still wondering if Age of the Beast will ever come out though. What game were you planning to make? And I actually didn't know that about Mighty Final Fight, so thank you. I also wound up calling Sodom just "this samurai". Oops.

Hoss Corncave posted:One based on a really embarrassing story some people and I made years ago. It was so cringeworthy. I would have had to do all the artwork myself, and my artistic talent is not very good (read: is terrible). Fatal Fury is a far less fatal universe than one would think.

While I love Ninja Baseball Batman, and it's got style for days, there are already quite a few other beat 'em ups competing for spots.

Hoss Corncave posted:Pretty much. only Geese actually dies (in the ending of Real Bout leading to him leaving Rock in Terry's care). All other bad guys survive (Billy, Krauser, Lawrence, Yamazaki, Chonshu, Chonrei, and in the case of the latter, they become good guys and go to train with Tung). Yeah, about Michael...

Choco1980 posted:I've been following this thread, and I just wanted to say that while I don't have much to add, I've really been enjoying this generalized look at side scrolling beat em ups, and can't wait to see more! I am skipping over better known titles like Streets of Rage and the original Final Fight, but only for the sake of showing a wider view of the whole genre.

Pvt.Scott posted:Does anyone remember a beat 'em up that had you freeing wild animals from poachers and poo poo? Growl/Runark is probably what you're thinking of. "Set in the early 20th century, the player controls a forest ranger who must protect the local wildlife from a group of evil poachers who are driving the animals to extinction."

Hoss Corncave posted:I recommend you trying Sengoku 3 as one of your choices. That game is a lot of fun and a vast improvement over the first two Sengoku games. Sengoku 3 is wonderful, but it deserves to be more than side-content, so until I find a way to properly showcase it, it's not going to be popping up.

Choco1980 posted:I just looked up a vid of it and...wow. I think I developed epilepsy from that game alone. Taito is like that. It also wasn't their only beat 'em up. Hoss Corncave posted:Definitely sounds like Growl. It was an okay game. Well, I definitely want to play Guardians of the Hood, but the question I am asking myself is whether it is ethical to choose it over one of many better options.

Hoss Corncave posted:I've never heard anyone willingly want to play Guardians of the Hood. I might do a LP of it to save you from that ethical decision. That is if I can make it through a level without it crashing. I definitely wouldn't complain about someone making an LP of such an interesting game. I have to wonder what exactly Atari was thinking about when they developed it.

Hoss Corncave posted:drat, Tung's super form is really strong. Why would you pick anyone else if it just stays forever, and are there any drawbacks to it? The only drawback to his super form is that it uses half your energy meter to transform. But you get that back so quickly it doesn't really matter.

Hoss Corncave posted:I did think this was less a loose playthrough of a troll mod and more you releasing some sort of new hip music track with random voice and Streets of Rage music samples that you had seemingly managed to sync gameplay perfectly with. I honestly wish that's what this was. That would've been great. I can't tell if Goits of Rage is a parody/spoof of the original Beats of Rage that came with the engine, someone's really strange dadaist art project, or a guy dicking around with people. Oh, and that six mintues of gameplay in the video was actually 60 minutes of realtime gameplay.

Hoss Corncave posted:Yeah, it looked like you had cut out a lot of footage. I like to think you were constantly saying "We can... play..." all the way through it as well. Also, I don't think we're supposed to know what Goits of Rage is. In fact, I'm sure our minds can't comprehend it and would explode from the sheer amount of the unbelievable fantastic. DeathChicken posted:The guns kind of reminded me of The Punisher, and then I was sad since that game was actually good. A lot of people consider Burning Fight to be a "kusoge". I wouldn't say it's that bad, but it was literally just Final Fight with a kick mechanic and less interesting bosses.

Hoss Corncave posted:I'll try playing through it again at some point this week (yes, I know I should be practicing on Guardians of the Hood, but, y'know, it's Guardians of the Hood and all that) and see if my opinion has changed in... about 15 years. Duke made a cameo in KOF? Either way, don't put your expectations too high. The bosses are mildly enjoyable and there's some decent level design, but it builds to an unimpressive and abrupt climax. I recommend playing 64th Street instead.

Hoss Corncave posted:Yeah, a bunch of characters from other games showed up as striker only characters. All characters in the game had alternate striker characters that could be selected. Off the top of my head, the ones not from KOF/FF/AOF that I can remember are: 64th Street's main unique feature is that you hurl enemies into the background, instead of to your sides, which allows for slightly more interaction with the environment than other beat em ups.

Hoss Corncave posted:Yes, ironically, Burning Fight doesn't have one. I just played through the game and didn't see one at all. Knife, bottle, gun, dynamite, and stick are all in, but no pipe. Did you complete it? Maybe stick is the new pipe. Just a lot less durable. How'd you feel about that abrupt final boss and ending?

Hoss Corncave posted:Yes I did. There was some cheap stuff from the fat sumo guys if you get surrounded since they'll knock you down and do a jumping attack that you can't avoid as you get up. Billy can't even special because he's not invincible until the shoulder charge starts, so he is taking damage from them whether he likes it or not. It's a game where getting knocked over is a death sentence, yeah. At least Belger had character.

Hoss Corncave posted:It's just the fact that your special attack should be an emergency escape or a "Get the hell off me!" move where you're invincible throughout and it takes some life off you or uses some other mechanic (like SOR3's power bars). However, the Burning Fight ones aren't (or at least Billy's isn't). They are at least the single most damaging moves in the game from the player side, and at least don't take life off you if you don't hit anyone. I just liked the implication that he was so lovely he hid in a wheelchair to avoid being fought. And Mr. X is by far my favorite beat em up villain, but I'm heavily biased toward Streets of Rage.
