About fifteen years and god knows how many creations, Mugen has birthed a lot of creative, well-made, and just plain intelligent ideas. And uh, some not so good ones. But we're not gonna talk about those right now, how about all the great things about it. This isn't as linear as a "your favorite characters" thread, just name off various things that you make you glad you found the engine. I'll start.1) This title screen: 2) The "F1" Button. I wish I could use this option for every fighting game.3) Mukuro by Ahuron Specifically for his 12th palette, and the various strikers he comes with. Fun on a bun. 4) April Fool's Day on MFG.5) Mr Shihan Ky by run. 6) The_None's Giygas's Mini-GamesSo yeah, thought this would be kinda fun.
Being able to make any possible match-up that you desire is my main draw. I grew up when all of those 2D fighters were coming out, and all of my friends and I would dream of pitting everyone against everyone in fantasy battles and stories. I also had a lot of stages and tunes/gaming scores that grew on me throughout the years, and Mugen allows me to have all of them at my fingertips. However I want.As I like to say, being a huge nostalgia whore, is Mugen is a digital action figure collection come to life on your computer's screen.
