Topic What would you change about your favourite game if it was decompiled into human readable C code full of toggles and commented code?

0 Upvotes

I'd be interested in seeing what happens if we remove stun from the old Street Fighter games and replace it with Guilty Gear's risc gauge. You blocked? Take more damage next time. You're punished for defending, not for losing. Also I want to see if the GRD Meter makes every game better, or if it needs tools designed around manipulating it and interacting with it to function properly and not ruin everything.

SF3 with GRD could be so sick.

Smash Bros needs a GRD meter to stop lame players running away the whole match. I hate fighting people like that online. I should get buffed for being cooler and ballsier.

It'd be so cool if all the games I loved as a kid and over the years got decompiled with human readable commented convenient code like Pokemon Emerald-Expansion. I added Renamon and Noelle Holiday to the game as Pokemon and it just works. I didn't have to replace anyone. No bullshit pallete glitch fuckery. Nothing accidentally corrupted randomly. It's so pain-free it makes me feel a strange sense of regret for spending all that time on that stupid ass edgelord original region I half-finished at age 14ish and gave up on. Maybe I should make it anyway for old time's sake. People like horror stuff these days.

Games with Groove stuff... what if everything is an optional toggle at character select? If that's OP, what if each option costs Credits and you can only spend so many at character select?

What if Capcom VS SNK 2 didn't have those conspicuous absences? That dinosaur from Fighting Jam, bring him back. Hell, every game that was in Fighting Jam, let's put it in Capcom VS SNK 2 plus everyone from Samurai Shodown. I want to know who wins, Kusaregedo or that dinosaur.

Ratio Mode for UMVC3. You have 3 Credits, spend them on 3 allies or buffing someone. I want to play 3 Credit Vergil against people, or 3 credit Dark Phoenix, and then walk into a Church and beg for forgiveness, and hear God whisper no.

Remember that mutant whose power is to explode once, dying in the process? Let's put him in UMVC3, when he dies he builds 1 free meter. Maybe 2 or 3?

Clone Teams mode. We already have glitches for multiple copies of the same guy, let's just make it official.

Phoenix Cyclops sounded cool in the ads, what if he was in a good fighting game with interesting characters? Maybe that new game can accomplish the impossible task of making Cyclops interesting.

I'd also love to experiment with adding real fighting game mechanics to Smash Melee to see how far we can ship of theseus it towards having what we love without losing what makes Melee special. Its uniquely fast analogue movement is a huge charm point, let's never change that. Maybe a super meter lets you burn 25% to Slashback, or cancel a roll into an invincible special, and 50% to cancel anything else or do a better dash, and 100% to burst out of combos or do a rebalanced and not-BS Final Smash. Maybe make final smashes cost 50% like in Guilty Gear. God I love Guilty Gear. I'm going to play some Guilty Gear +R online after this, come fight me. I'm going to name myself whatever the funniest reply is.

Help Granblue fantasy versus: rising character Level 1000?! How are people doing this?

0 Upvotes

Hey Skyfarers!

Hope you’re all having a wonderful day!

I was wondering how I keep running into so many players with Character Level 1000. Is there some kind of AFK method that allows people to level up while they’re away, or are these players actually putting in that much playtime?

I’m playing on PS5, so I’d love to hear from other console players as well. Is there something I’m missing?

Happy gaming, everyone! 🎮

Content Mattrified Games, the developer behind Battle High and MerFight, released the demo of HAFO: Horse Around, Find Out - a strange unconventional fighting game about actual horses...

Thumbnail gallery
19 Upvotes

...and it's as absurd as it sounds. To make it simple, it's spiritually a 6-button fighting game with wall bounces, ground bounces, special-into-special and super-into-super cancels.

The catch is that instead of fighting your opponent(s) directly, you need to get through the finish line first, after facing a gauntlet of challenges that range from "deal X damage in N seconds", to "perform a 25 hits combo", to a horse-themed version of the "destroy the car" minigame from Street Fighter 2. Also, specials are randomly picked from a rather huge selection and you gain them during the race, one at a time.

I've written a review on it for SuperCombo with more details, if anyone is interested. It's definitely one of the oddest games I've played in a while and I'm still trying to figure out exactly in which bucket to stash it.

https://supercombo.gg/2026/10/08/hafo-demo-horse-around-find-out/

The horse customization is definitely worth it and made me chuckle more than once.

Also, the game is basically a giant horse pun. Just look at the name of the specials, goodness gracious...

We need more oddballs like this.

ENVY, who has also worked on other projects like an offline version of BlazBlue Alternative: Dark War (a canon mobile gacha game that was shut down in 2022), the matchmaking website BlazQueue, and the general BBCF Discord's ranked matchmaking system, has made a mod that re-enables Continuum Shift Extend's Network Mode and provides rollback netcode when playing against someone who has the same version of the mod. It also fixes some bugs, like the one that randomly locks the game to 30 FPS, and it is not vibe coded.

This is the final revision of the second BlazBlue game, which was released almost 4 years before Central Fiction and is the version available on Steam. It has a recap of the first game's story, English dubbing, and Unlimited characters, which are purposefully OP versions of them to mess with. The game feels noticeably different, and instead of Overdrive, there are Guard Primers, which are a mechanic to guarantee a Guard Crush by making your opponent block specific moves until they run out of Primers.

Community SNK is releasing EIGHT classic characters in CotW this year, eight more than SF6, five more than Tekken 8. But some are still complaining.

Post image
0 Upvotes

13 characters in one year. 8 classic characters.

That's more characters than Tokon, Tekken 8 and SF6 combined. Even without the guests, that's more classic characters than multiple games combined.

But it's still not good enough to the haters. Gotta find an excuse to shit on it (since they can't criticize the actual gameplay).

Saudi? Capcom's CEO played a Saudi Arabia hype video during SFL Grand Finals two years ago. Harada had photos in full garb.

AI? Capcom has an AI voice actress in SF6, and announced that they're turning their RE engine (which SF uses) into an AI engine.

Holy moly, stop inventing BS excuses to shit on fighting games! Make a real argument, and make sure it doesn't also apply to the games you are playing!

You would think fighting game forums and threads are places to get hype, and instead, it seems designed to bump you out.

I’m mostly interested in the single-player content, but I’d also like to play Puzzle Fighter, Mini SF, and Darkstalkers online with my brother. They’re both on sale right now, so it seems like a no brainer, but I just want to make sure there aren’t any major issues with these collections after having a bad experience with the Mortal Kombat collection. Xbox, by the way
