Hey all,
Here is a mugen project I'm working on, I was inspired to start this after playing Skull Girls. I thought, I have a lot of my own characters that I draw on a regular basis why not bring them to life in a fighting game?

Girl needs a little feet motion on her stance (see GIF), and NPCs in the background could get some shadow on the ground.

Love the art you're using, very smooth and all. Love the design too. It's pretty simple but with nice little details and vivid colors.
Gameplay seems interesting and pretty solid so far.

Good luck with everything, this has huge potential. :)

I really would like you to change hit sounds, they are pretty boring for such "shiny" design, I advise something more like MVC3.

I'm pretty much doing everything by myself, at the moment. I should be receiving some help with the backgrounds soon.

Hey man, I see what you mean after watching a few MVC3 videos. At the moment I'm using sound effects from CVS2.
I'm not sure of what hit sounds I could use that would be similar to MVC3.

It's been a while. I've got some more screenshots of Jonathan.

New "Round *insert number" text animation.


EX Ice slide and Normal Ice slide (low)



If you haven't noticed in the previous screenshots I've updated the building in the background.


Here Jonathan can combine an EX projectile and a normal projectile to get a larger projectile

Damn. Yup, that ^.  I really like how quick the game play looks.  Kicking ass at 100mph is the freakin best.  Solid art style too, I like the urban asian blend.  Decent start for a title screen too.  Some light rain might look cool, or maybe either some black ink spatter or just some dark shadow behind the Project zed might make it pop out a little more.  Good luck with this!

Wow. This looks amazing. The animation is fluid and the style is very unique. My only nitpick would be that the characters look rather mundane, but that's just my opinion.

I absolutely love the animation in Inch's twisty kick. I'm not sure how to describe it, but there's something awesome about how his body just melts into this crazy, obscure shadow-ball-thing. I have absolutely no idea what words to use to define it... but it's kick ass.

I haven't got a solid number of how many characters will be in the final game. I've got another three characters planned once the four I've revealed are complete.

Thanks for all your comments guys, I really appreciate them.

I've got a few more updates to share.



Slightly updated the title screen. Took note of RobotMonkeyHead's advice and decided to put an ink splatter behind the "Project Z.E.D" text and I think it looks a whole lot better.



Here's what the character select screen looks like along with the character portraits.



Here's a screen shot of without P2's portrait so you can see some of the art in the background.

Also I'm gonna be making another Inch combo video sometime soon, so stay tuned for that. :)

Hey guys, I decided to update this thread again while I'm still working on the next trailer.

First showing off a new stage, that my brother helped make. I think it came out quite nicely.


Here I added two new special moves to Jonathan.



And here is his normal grab.


And here's a little bonus.

Red isn't the only coder who can do a "pause-movelist" code; I've seen others too, like Ribeiro and Zerberus Dante...

Nice style: will you add the amount of power used for the techniques too? And what about the two white bars above the "SPECIALS"?

Hey guys, new Jonathan video up!

This time we explore his options when he has meter. In this video I pretty much scratch the surface as far as gimmicks and combos go.

As you can tell from the video Jonathan doesn't excel in mindlessly rushing his opponent down since he lacks the normals to do that. His main offence is heavily reliant on locking the opponent down, while he continues to mix them up.

Since his normals are pretty crappy, he makes up for it with his amazing special moves. His combos are so much fun to pull off, especially his Freeze Cinder Loops.

I hope you enjoy the video!

This game looks really Cool.
I noticed your stun meter builds back up after the reset even if you start comboing off of the stun. Maybe a longer reset would be better or a no stun build off of a dizzy combo, just to stop perpetual dizzy's.

Yeah, I was just thinking of just reducing the stun damage altogether since they happen quite frequently. At least one dizzy per round.

Looking good bro, Love the one where he does a double Freeze Cinder to make the wave bigger. Something I would had though about for Rocks double reppuken. Also I notice that his skin turned blue, is that some kind of stoneskin to increase his defense?

Love seeing this project growing and seeing someone original work. Keep it up.

I've been meaning to update this thread for quite a while now, but I have returned with a new trailer this time exploring Jonathan's supers.

This is the final Jonathan trailer since Jonathan is pretty much now complete, so I'll be ready to release a demo for this game hopefully sometime soon. :)

Haha, thanks guys! Glad you liked the trailer, especially the final super. :) That one took me forever to animate, especially all the flames, :(

Here are some screenshots I've been meaning to put on here. You might of noticed some of these changes/additions during the trailer.

Added two extra NPCs to the City Stage and also added shadows to all the NPCs.


New Training stage and changed the fonts from the default Mugen 1.0 fonts.


Here is Inch's in game move list.

I'm very impressed at what I've seen so far. It's great to see very ambitious original mugen projects coming to fruition. Keep up the good work, this looks like it will be really good.

Hey man, been a while. Hopefully i get the name right but wanted to give you a tip the video 6/6 of Zed doing his final super. Looks really good and I hope you are still tweaking the super around. I want to say for right now, you might want to add some movement FX on the hand to give it more of a sense that its moving. Everything else looks great. the only issue I have with Zed is that I can see the bases you draw his attacks from. Try to steer away on doing that so that he can be seen as a more unique character. Good job though.

@ Fernandez

Did you mean the flame hand that emerges from the flames? If so, I'll see what I can do. Thanks for the suggestion. :)

Thanks, I'll try and steer away from that next time. :)

Yeah, I mean dont get me wrong some movements you just cant help it, But you can do away from Kyo's flame wave. Keep doing what you doing though I dont want to back you up. I am always known for complicating things but thats just me, I cant help it.

Hey guys, I'm back with another update. I've updated the life bars and made new hit sparks for blade based attacks.
I've also started work on Tomoe and Jinzai.

I don't really say much on forums but I must say that I am really impressed with this project. There are a lot of good ones out there but this by far more original than any that I've seen before. I am most definitely going to watch out for this project and will do a video on this for my youtube channel. People need to be aware of what Mugen is capable of.

This project looks really cool I'll tell you that, just a very noob question but what would you call the "artstyle" the characters have? Like some projects have "normal" sprites and then your project and Black Heart have a similar style, how do you call it or name it?

I think not everything needs a label (like in this case), but if you ask me (which you don't :P) I would call it Z.E.D style.
Although in my opinion it is more similar to SkullGirls than to Black Heart in terms of graphics. :)

Some more Jinzai progress! Here are some screenshots of his new moves.

Special move 1 - Dancing Dragon.
An air only special move where Jinzai attacks his foes with a rising knee and follows up with a huge vertical kick. This mostly going to be used in combos but can be used as an air-to-air if timed right.


Special move 2 - Guardian Beast
A counter move where Jinzai takes a defensive stance and if an enemy strikes while in this stance Jinzai will unleash a powerful attack.

The strong version bounces opponents off the wall if they're close the wall. While the EX version sticks the opponent to the wall. Also the EX version you can unleash the powerful attack without being tagged by the opponent, you can simply unleash it at a press of a punch button.

All versions of Guardian Beast lose to throws, low attacks and supers.

  • I can take'em out with my fists
Ok so I played the demo and will say beyond  the overly awesomeness of the game thus far I like the originality of the game. If you are still accepting ideas I have one after seeing Jonathans super special with ice hand. I would like to use this Tenjo Tenge video for reference.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3uXACK16L8
Ok near the end of the video where nagi Souichiro has blurry vision and sees takayanagi Masataka before getting finished was the best part of the fight. Would be nice if you had a character who had a super special where he would pummel his enemy with a lets say 10 hit-15 hit combo and if the enemy where to lose all health in said combo it would trigger a blurry vision of the characters face with the red eyes and then you'd see a fist coming then the screen would blink like that bright light you'd see if you were to randomly get hit in the eye the enemy would be laid out on the ground. End Round. What do you think.

I actually quite like that idea! I will definitely use that as reference for a future character super move.

Work in progress footage of Jinzai's Beast Mode.

NOTE: You will see a few place holder and WIP animations here and there

So how Jinzai's Beast mode works as of now, is that he has to use a special move called Beastial charge (which hasn't been animated yet) to level up Beast mode. You can use it in combos or a stand alone move but it's riskier to use it as a stand alone move. (Like in combo 3)

Each time he levels up, he gets a power boost and the properties on some of his special move will change but in return he will lose something in return. Such as losing the ability to chain his normals and not being able to cancel into special moves.(to name a couple)

0:00 - 0:15
Are the effects that each level of beast mode has an effect on Jinzai's Beast Palm special move.

0:15 - 0:25
Level 1 Beast Mode combo. 99% of normals used in this combo are chainable.

0:25 - 0:32
Level 2 Beast Mode combo all normals are links, can still cancel into specials.

0:32 - End
Level 1 beast mode combo into level 2 combo.
