Hello, I'm the sole developer of Get In The Ring, a top-down brawler inspired by the combat system in the latest Batman games, coupled with the constant upgrade progression systems of games like You Must Build A Boat. A gameplay video: The first gameplay GIF: Screenshots:
This looks really promising - reminds me of Capcom's Avengers.. The top down beat 'em up genre is something with a lot of potential that's barely been explored.
Nice video I watched it a few times and noticed one attack so far. Is there going to be punches, kicks and the grab move? Also, maybe having the fighter's attacks extend a little further out might help as far as players knowing where the hit box is and what the range for the attack is. I was also thinking some cool special moves would really liven things up (like a charged flaming dash punch, circular tornado kick, heck....maybe some fireballs for good measure). I'm liking what I see so far though
Thanks! I'm thinking of a street fighter setting... But the story isn't set in stone. So far I'm thinking of only having a single "normal attack" move but with multiple attack animations (punchs, kicks, headbutts). What you have to do varies according to the situation: you go around punching and kicking enemies, but you have to quickly tap enemies when they're attacking you or you're dead; when a big enemy grabs you you have to get rid of him before handling the other enemies; etc. There will be an upgrade system: you start relatively slow and with a short attack range but will become faster and farther-reaching (among other things). Also, the green circle indicates your current attack range. Yes! As you create combos a power bar will fill up, unlocking special powers... I like your descriptions for them.
Yea ummm count me in for any beta please. This game is right up my alley. Fight club for iPhone! Hehe Amazing it looks awesome for only a few weeks of work. Billy
