A Tale of Vengeance

A Tale of Vengeance

OpenBOR - Homebrew - April 25, 2012

One of the best OpenBOR games around, very fun and very complete feel. There are 10 levels, 13 boss battles, great soundtrack, and even 3 secret characters! What a great story from the OpenBoR community! Under the sharp and challenging title "A Tale of Vengeance" is a great beat 'em up game. This is not a remake, but a completely new game with a remixed desktop. Here, the characters of SNK and Capcom meet together in a team. The demon Shin has mastered almost all the warriors of the three sagas. This is the strongest form of Akuma, which has now taken over the human world. This creates a common story in which even the great Geese, the unlimited M. Bison, and the mystical Mr. Q are part of Demon Sheen's army. However, several fighters, gathered in a group, set off. Ryo characters from Street Fighter, Samurai Maru, Kyo, Terry Bogard and Kim embark on a long journey through the depths of the Shin-controlled vacuum to drive him out of the human world. Well, the game is quite interesting, although its dynamics can be difficult for anyone to master. Crowded with powerful fighters who are also quite fierce. Your characters, on the other hand, are quite slow and some of their tricks make them too vulnerable. But these are almost two hours of intense play, where your gaming skills will be put to the test.

Abyss Odyssey

Abyss Odyssey

Windows - Released - July 15, 2014

Normally sleep is healthy, but that does not apply in the world of Abyss Odyssey: the nightmares of a powerful warlock opened up a right in 1890's Chile. To defeat the monsters which enter through it, Katrien enters the randomly generated Abyss to defeat the warlock. The story does play a minor part, but items with background information can be found during play. While the game itself is a side-scrolling platformer, combat has similarities to fighting games: Katrina has a number of regular attacks, throws and special attacks to her disposal which are activated with button combinations. This is also evident because of the cancelling move which allows to directly transition from a normal move into a special move or into a dash. However, this costs cancelling points. The enemies have also their own move set and, by performing a special attack at the right time, the player can take over their soul. This allows to morph into them on the fly and make use of their skills. During the course of the game two additional characters (Ghost Monk and Pincoya) can be unlocked which also come with their own weapons and moves. Killing enemies reward experience points and eventually level-ups. Those reward additional moves as well as skill points which can be used to make the moves more powerful. Additional weapons or other equipment can be found in the levels or bought in stores. While the game has a permadeath mechanic, death is not automatically the end: when the player manages to reach the next checkpoint with a generic (and weaker) soldier, the character is revived. Stores also hold expensive items which translate into a revival at the last checkpoint. When all those options are exhausted, the player needs to start a new try in a new Abyss. While equipment and gold is lost, experience points and character level carries over. The Windows version received a number of content patches which added a few new enemies, a competitive multiplayer mode (two players online, four players offline) and the harder nightmare difficulty. Those new features remained mostly exclusive to the platform (except nightmare difficulty on PS3) until the Extended Dream Edition arrived on PS4. It is functionally identical to Windows version 1.10.

Action Doom 2: Urban Brawl

Action Doom 2: Urban Brawl

Windows - Released - August 22, 2008

Urban Brawl: Action DooM 2 is a prequel to Action Doom, originally a total conversion, and it takes place ten years before the events of the first game. Urban Brawl can be played both as a .wad file or stand-alone and it is based on the Windows ZDoom port of the original DOOM source code. Unlike the first game this title is entirely done in cel shaded graphics. The original game aimed to bring a Contra-style gameplay to a first-person shooter, by only offering ranged weapons. Urban Brawl is exactly the opposite as it centers around melee combat with fists, bats, shurikens, bottles, baseball bats, a taser, a chainsaw or a katana to take on enemies. Especially the brawler Final Fight has heavily inspired the game design. There is also a number of ranged weapons available, but with limited ammo. For almost all weapons there is a basic and an advanced attack. Weapons wear out or can be dropped at any time to exchange them for a new one. Health is replenished through junk food. Health bars for both the player and the enemies are shown near the top of the screen. The game tells the gritty story of a man whose daughter is kidnapped for reasons not disclosed to him. In between missions the events are further explained through stylish black and white cut-scenes similar to the Sin City art, with a voice-over for the narrator. The story takes the protagonist through urban locales such as gang-infested city, the metro, woods, fields an eventually the building of the organization behind the kidnapping. The graphics as well as the enemies are colorful, the environment is highly interactive and there are many secrets and Easter eggs hidden in the game. Based on certain decisions, two possible endings are available. The game is available for free, but for $9.99 a physical copy can be purchased directly from the developer. It comes on a disc inside a collectible case and box art, and it contains bonus maps and challenges, a bonus song and the original Action Doom.

AdventNEON

AdventNEON

Windows - Released - August 29, 2019

Hyperactive 2D action platformer made by just me! Punch robot cops while double-dashing and comboing them at lightspeed. When you think they've got the drop on you? Dash through them to freeze time, run circles around them, and wind up a satisfying counterattack! Once you hit 100% of your power, transform and show everyone how unstoppable you truly are! AdventNEON's got a focus on vibrancy, responsiveness and freedom. You've got simple, tight (and remappable!) inputs, fluid and versatile movement options and extremely fast combat to allow you to jump around and beat down however the heck you want. My goal is for the game itself to be so fun that you'd be willing to open it up just to screw around in the hub world. I.e. the game I'd want to play when other games just aren't cutting it for me at the time. It takes a ton of inspirations from all the games and characters I enjoyed growing up, so you might notice some of that here! You're put into the shoes of Neon, a special android with the ability to harness Resonance energy and rapidly scale in power. The harder the beatdown Neon dishes out, the stronger they become, until they're a nigh unstoppable snowball of devastation. The catch? Neon can't maintain this power when getting hit, nor can they take a lot of hits in general. Neon is incredibly fast and powerful, but can only maintain that extreme potential when they're avoiding damage and continuously dishing it out. If you can fully maintain the flow of Resonance though, you'll transform, and be able to let loose 100% of your power! Become faster, stronger, brighter, meaner and greener as everything in your path struggles to keep pace with you in this form. Like Celeste? You can use its dash twice! Go nuts. Avoid everything. Counterattack through your enemies. Heck, wavedash jump cancel™ if you want. Enjoy platform fighters? Neon's got a fully fleshed out directional moveset, along with the ability to send enemies offscreen to KO them with a satisfying explosion! Combat lets you cancel virtually everything into everything else! Make your own combos! Hit, stun and run! Start up that combo with a dash! Unleash a barrage of punches and stop time like it's a [redacted] reference! Fake out enemies with repeated dashes! Teleport behind the enemy and end them with a powerful Break attack! You don't need to remember any optimal combo routes or buttons; just hit and don't get hit and you'll win regardless of your playstyle! DEFAULT CONTROLS/SETTINGS Remap them in the options menu. [Action]: [Keyboard input] -- [Gamepad input] Move: WSAD/Arrows -- Left Stick/D-Pad Jump: Space/C -- Bottom Face/Left Bumper Punch: P/Z -- Left Face/Right Face + Direction Dash: O/X -- Top Face/Right Bumper + Direction Break Attack: Hold Dash + Press Punch + Direction (Can also be done with the Right Stick on Gamepad.) "Tap up to Jump" can be set. Gamepad Stick Deadzone can be set between 10% and 85% of the gate radius. To ensure your gamepad controls are working, you can open a Visualizer for your inputs by going to Options - Video - Display Inputs. These show the real time inputs from your controller regardless of what's happening in the game.

Aeon Flux

Aeon Flux

Sony Playstation 2 - Released - November 15, 2005

Aeon Flux is a 3rd person action game inspired by the 2005 movie of the same name. The story takes place 400 years in the future after the majority of Earth's population has been wiped out by industrial disease. Only one city, Bregna, remains. The city is run by the group of scientists who had discovered the vaccine to prevent the disease, but a group of rebels known as the Monicans oppose their rule. You control the main character of the story, Aeon Flux. Aeon is a skilled fighter, and can perform light and heavy strikes, combo attacks, and a variety of acrobatic attacks. When an enemy has only a small amount of health left, you also have the ability to perform a takedown attack; when successful this will award you a bonus, such as extra health. Aeon has a health meter and a style meter; when the health meter is depleted, the game is over. The style meter is filled by attacking or killing enemies; when you have earned enough style, you can charge up your combo attacks for extra damage.

Akiba's Trip: Undead & Undressed

Akiba's Trip: Undead & Undressed

Sony Playstation 3 - Released - November 7, 2013

Akiba's Trip: Undead & Undressed is a 3D fighting brawler set in a modern day version of Japan's Akihabara district in Tokyo. It is the sequel to the 2011 PSP game Akiba's Trip. The protagonist is called Nanashi or 'Nameless', but this can be changed before starting the game. He is an otaku-type high school student who is on his way to a job interview. He does not remember what happens next, but he ends up strapped on an operating table where he is told that just like many others he has signed a contract with the Magaimono organization. This contract allowed them to turn him into a synthister, a vampire-like superhuman that feeds off other people's life energy. He needs to absorb the energy for Magaimono, but he is quickly rescued by a girl called Shizuku Tokikaze. She is a friendly synthister and her blood allows the protagonist to withstand his task and defend Akihabara instead. He becomes a hunter to defeat the synthisters who prey on regular humans. Along with a band of freedom fighters Nanashi gets to roam the streets of Akihabara with over 100 shops modeled after the real life ones. Fights are done with brawling beat 'em up gameplay against one or more opponents in a small environment. Just like the protagonist himself the synthisters are sensitive to sunlight, so he needs to weaken the durability of their clothing with attacks until a part starts to blink and then there is an opportunity to tear off one or multiple parts of their clothing through a stripping mechanic, exposing them to sunlight which kills them. When multiple parts blink it is possible to perform chain strips. Rather than being a hentai title, the game presents the undressing in a quirky manner and does not contain full nudity. In the fighting system it is possible to attack using multiple stances and perform duo attacks with allies. Attacks are based on targeting the head and the upper and lower body. They can be strung together to form combos and there are many types of weapons, that can be upgraded multiple times, each with their own attacks, strengths and weaknesses. The character is also able to jump, avoid incoming attacks and counter blocks with special moves that break them. Next to the fights a large amount of time is spent exploring the environment and completing missions to earn money. There are also many NPCs to talk to. Conversations often have dialogue trees and the answers not only affect the fights with synthisters, but also the relationships with the male and female cast of characters who can join or leave the protagonist's, with the option to pursue one of four love interests with their own endgame. A lot of communication is accessible through a smartphone, for instance to receive e-mails, check the Pitter social network, access the map or use the camera to take shots. Because of the large environment it is possible to fast travel between locations. The game contains many shops where items, weapons, clothing and food can be bought and sold. The character's main characteristics are based around an attack and defense rating, as well as a large amount of customization for weapons and different types of clothing items that influence his head and upper and lower body durability during fights.

The game features first person shooting, racing, platforming, and beat-em up segments to help illustrate the various points in the movie's story. Thought to have been lost since its initial debut in various media as well as the Summer Consumer Electronic Show (SCES 94) in 1994, an early prototype has been discovered and is presented for the first time in full.

Alien Storm

Alien Storm

Amstrad CPC - Released - 1991

The aliens are invading Earth, and it's up to the "Alien Busters" to wipe them out and destroy their creator. The Busters consist of Karla, Gordon, and Scooter. Each one of them have their own weapons and special attacks. When you start the game, you can select any one of these characters to play as. There are six missions to complete (eight in the Genesis version) with several stages, and each mission has you blasting aliens all the way to the end, from the streets to the mother ship where you'll meet the mother of all aliens. Unfortunately, blasting these aliens will not be an easy task, as they get tougher in every mission, and are capable of hiding into objects such as plants, postboxes, trashcans, drums, and several others. Each mission has an objective such as rescuing people destroying an UFO. When you deal with a few aliens, flying heads will appear, which you can shoot to collect life or energy (by the way, life is important to you, since if yours get empty, you're dead). However, rather than using your ordinary weapons, you can use the special attacks that are enough to kill aliens you currently see. These types of attack vary depending on the character you choose at the start of the game. For instance, Gordon summons a U.S. Air Force Jet that drop bombs across the street, while Scooter is able to teleport out of his present location, and leave a series of bombs that will blow up aliens on sight, he will then re-appear. However, using your character's special attack uses up a lot of energy, and if you have little or no energy, you can't use it. At the end of some missions is an alien boss, which you must destroy in order to complete the mission. Also, at the end of every one, you have to enter buildings where you participate in a shooting gallery. The object is to kill aliens popping up from several locations with the building. You can play Alien Storm by yourself, or with another person.

All Kamen Rider: Rider Generation 2

Sony PSP - Released - August 2, 2012

All Kamen Rider: Rider Generation 2 is the 2012 sequel to the original Rider Generation for the Nintendo DS, expanding on nearly every facet of the original - the playable stable of Kamen Riders has increased dramatically, older characters have expanded capabilities and movesets, and the game itself was simultaneously released for the DS and Playstation Portable. Just like its predecessor, Rider Generation 2 combines 2D side-scrolling beat-em-up action with stock RPG elements, with each Rider having individual EXP counts and stat training parameters. While the basic structure of a human-played Rider and AI partner remains, Rider Generation 2 also features 2-player functionality via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection or the PSP's Ad Hoc wireless. The password system from Rider Generation 1 has been completely revamped for RG2: instead of unlocking additional stages for each world (and an "incomplete" Kamen Rider Fourze), the new, simpler passwords enable players to instantly unlock nearly any Rider in the playable list, negating the wait to mow down tokusatsu villains with fan/personal favorites - whether your favorite may be the massively overhauled Fourze, the classic Rider-1, the poorly-treated-by-America Black RX, the sole female entrant Kiva-la, the currently-airing (and existing in a prototypical state) Wizard, or another Rider entirely.

Altered Beast (Mega-Tech)

Altered Beast (Mega-Tech)

Arcade - Released

The Mega-Tech System is an arcade cabinet released by Sega in 1989, and Western counterpart to the Mega 6. It was based on the Sega Mega Drive home console, and was designed similarly to Nintendo's PlayChoice-10: players chose games from a menu of eight titles, with credits buying more play time (usually 1 minute per credit) rather than extra lives or continues; reaching a game over screen does not end the play session, and players can start over or choose a different game as long as there was some play time remaining. The Mega-Tech was not released in North America, though did see use in Asia and the PAL regions. Altered Beast is a side scrolling, platform, beat 'em up game that puts the player in control of a centurion who had died in battle. The centurion has been raised from the dead to rescue Zeus' daughter Athena from the demon Neff. The player battles undead and demonic hordes, controlling the shapeshifting hero. He must fight through several levels in order to save the kidnapped goddess. You are a hero risen from the dead on a mission to rescue Zeus' daughter from the clutches of an evil magician. Kill the flashing white wolves to reveal power-ups. As you collect more power-ups you gain more muscles, and eventually you will transform into a beast, a different one each level. These beasts are: a werewolf, a flying weredragon, a werebear, a weretiger and finally the Golden Werewolf. Level two features head suckers that can be shaken off by moving the joystick left and right quickly, very difficult to work out if you don't know the game.

Anarchy Reigns

Anarchy Reigns

Sony Playstation 3 - Released - January 8, 2013

Anarchy Reigns is a third-person brawler fighting game where players choose one of the sixteen available fighters to duke it out in large arenas. Each character is defined through different types of weak and strong attacks with a trademark weapon, a specific fighting style, throws, and different moves that can be chained into combos. They also have access to a move that clears the surrounding area and many moves are very violent and over the top. It is possible to lock on to a single character and performing evasive actions. A rampage mode is charged up while fighting and there are also bonus items such as shields or rocket launchers. The game incorporates Action Trigger Events (A.T.E.) where actions in the environments can be triggered to influence the combat. Examples of these are plane crashes, black holes or a blitz bombing. The game's backstory describes Earth as a mutant-infested wasteland with monsters and cyborgs following a new world war. The focus is largely on multiplayer with game modes that include Battle Royale, Capture the Flag, Death Ball, Death Match, Survival and Tag Team, for up to sixteen players simultaneously. There is also a singleplayer campaign that largely shares the assets of the multiplayer environments. It is split up into two parts, one for Jack Cayman, the Gator Tooth double chainsaw-wielding protagonist from MadWorld and one for Leonhardt "Leo" Victorion,—a new character—an agent of the Bureau's Strike One unit who wields positron blades that can be charged. In the single-player portion there are many hub areas where a certain amount of enemies need to be defeated in order to progress and enter new missions. At certain points the campaigns cross over. Jack and Leo are enemies and they both want to hunt down Maximillian Caxton responsible for killing Jack's daughter. After the four stages of each campaign (White and Black), Red is opened up as an additional one. There are four other characters who return from MadWorld: Big Bull (cyborg with a human brain), Blacker Baron, Mathilda (uses her Iron Maiden spiked club), and Rin Rin (uses the Yanlong blades). Next to Leo the new characters are Ai Rin (with the Huanglong lightning nunchucks), Douglas Williamsburg (with twin pilebunkers), Durga (cyborg bounty hunter who uses martial arts and a revolver cannon attached to his leg), Edgar Oinkie (can turn into a reptile), Fei Rin (with the ice trident Zilong), Garuda (as a mech who can transform into a jet plane), Maximillian Caxton (with both positron blades and tesla blitz), Nikolai Dmitri Bulygin (with tesla coils), Sasha Ivanoff (with an ice blade), and Zero (cybernetic ninja with katanas).

Ancient Glory

Ancient Glory

Apple IIGS - Released - December 31, 1992

Ancient Glory is a side scrolling action game based on Greek mythology. It is based on the adventures of Hercules who the player controls as he travels the Greek countryside (as well as some other locations in the Mediterranean) in his quest to defeat the gorgon Medusa. To do so five magical items have to be collected which is done by completing tasks for Hermes and Athena. At the same time Hercules has to be aware of the wrath of Hera, who will try to stop him. Time is limited as the player only has seventeen days of in-game time to complete the quest. The game starts out in Thebes with an unarmed Hercules who has to use his feet to kick at the scorpions that attack him. Weapons can be collected such as a club, a sword and a bow (which is given to Hercules by Athena when visiting Athens) which are needed to defeat animals such as lions, bulls and snakes as well as mythological creatures such as molionids and minotaurs. Levels are linear and involve moving from left to right but can be played in any order although locations that are farther away take a longer time to travel to.

NEC TurboGrafx-CD - Released - February 24, 1995

Ane-san is what is commonly called beat-'em-up, i.e. a fighting game that allows limited movement through side-scrolling environment. The player can choose to control a variety of female fighters. In the beginning, only Ai, Chika, and Makoto are selectable. Ai is the all-around balanced character, Chika is fast and fragile, while Makoto is very strong, but slow. Later in the game, other playable characters become available. Each fighter has a health points bar, which can be restored by healing items scattered through the levels. Once a character is dead, the player can continue playing with another one.
