Been meaning to play this one for a while, but couldn't get it to work on my browser (Safari), working in Google Chrome though. Good choice of Sprites and music! I imagine this was quite tricky to code and animate. This obviously takes me back to games like Streets of Rage and Final fight, even TMNT. I suppose you could introduce weapons, and maybe mini smash-up-a-car levels (See image) to break up the levels. And, if you really wanted to go crazy, vehicles, like motorbikes and skateboards. I would like to try making a fighting game at some point, so would be interested in knowing more about the coding challenges on this type of game.

I mean it really didn't take much to code the fight mechanic, and as for the sprites and animations I happen to have made a few animations in the game although most of them were downloaded from "anizmuz" an itch content creator. I agree that i should have added more features but I was at a cost of being disqualified from the jam, so I had to KISS and chop off the ideas that were good but not necessary.

Don't be disheartened, I'm making a prequal to the game but you play as on of the bosses "PonyTail", and understand her Origin story. It should be playable after the rating phase of the jam.

Hi Zenith Games, I think it is great! I was asking questions coz I'm trying to learn as much as I can from this jam. Good games are the ones that fire your imagination and make you think of all the other things that exist in the world they create, and this one flooded my mind with ideas :-)

You have no idea how good it feels to hear that. I've always been the kind who tends to over scope and thus never been able to finish games, which is the major reason I don't participate in game jams. But for this I had a goal, not to win, not to be among the top 30, not to get the highest ratings, but to "finish" my game and so I did. With this thought I was able to finish the game a day early and began polishing.

What's great about this is that 88% if the ideas I had were able to be implemented into the game and that's a lot if you ask me, so seeing someone play my game and say they're inspired and filled with so much ideas really brings a tear to my eye.

If you want you can join Zenith Games on our discord channel here. And here's a full game play of "Modern Fighters I" so you know what you're working with. Modern Fighters Full GamePlay. Thanks again for your feedback it really helped.
