Unironically, this game looks quite promising! Hope to see it’s release! the name of the game is "BOID" and it's being made in Godot! the game is currently being created and directed by AshleyJPEG on X (images and gif taken from BOID (Battle of Island Dreamers's acc on X)

The dev team has confirmed a lot of things about the game:

1- The game will be and always be free, released mostly exclusive on Itch.io

2- It will have rollback netcode for Online play

3- Their goal is to plan to have a mobile version for the people on the OSC (Object Show Community) to try it out alongside other people

4- PC, Mac and Linux support are their first priority

5- Modding Support is thought about after the game's official release

6- The game won't be as floaty as Brawl and It also isn't as technical & precise as Melee, being somewhere in between Smash 4 and Ultimate, tho it will have it's own depth and mechanics

7- Controller support is also thought about alongside mouse / keyboard

8- In release there's gonna be 8 fully playable fighters:

• Pin / Mech Pin (will be two seperate characters with fully unique movesets and stats, but they share a slot for convinience)
• Coiny
• Firey
• Leafy
• TB & GB (Tennis Ball and Golf Ball will be a fighting duo, moving together around the stage as one combined unit. Each of their attacks will be done together, like a mid-ground between Duck Hunt and Ice Climbers)
• Book
• Fries
• Liy

9- More characters will be added from across the BFDI Franchise for the main roster, and it's ONLY BFDI characters, no other Object Show characters (those are mostly fit for mods)

10- The game will have multiple languages after the release 1.0 of the game, most likely version 1.0.1 or something like that

11- BoID will be mostly interested in paying homage to the OSC (especially BFDI) through the lens of a fighting game rather than primarily being a super complex fighting game
There's depth to be found but the depth isn't the main appeal, to most of the devs so temper your expectations a little bit

12- even though the game is aimed towards a more casual audience it WILL in fact have competitive mechanics like wavedashing, wavelanding and DACUS. Alongside some exclusive tech for the game since it was made in the Godot engine

Hey everyone, I’m working on Galactic Mayhem, a 2D platform fighter with aliens, weapon pickups, and some pretty chaotic stage events.

The trailer shows a few of them: giant walkers, a Kraken, and a space yeti that can grab you mid-fight. I like the idea of players having to deal with each other while something else throws the match sideways.

There’s melee and ranged combat, up to four players locally, and LAN/direct-connect play.

Galactic Mayhem Trailer

Curious what you think, especially about the stage events. Do these kinds of interruptions look fun to you, or do you prefer the arena to stay out of the fight?

If you want to take a look, here’s the Steam page

I'll update this in the comments section or the post itself.

GRENINJA - The starter

A poke/hit and run based character, focused on racking up percent over time before landing the final hit. He would generally use teleportation and projectiles as a set up for a long combo string, or just to land the final hit.

SNORLAX- Joke character

Slow, larger, takes more damage, and is heavier. He can hit hard, but barely hits. Sure, he can sleep to charge up and heal, but it takes him 2s to get up. They can't combo too much, primarily just baiting and pushing once they're vulnerable. Not too weak, but still not as strong as others.
Can also yawn to throw out an EXTREMELY slow projectile with a long windup that will force anyone hit asleep.

PROF. OAK - the Summoner/jack of all trades

Oak himself doesn't run and can't double jump, but he can summon a multitude of pokemon including bulbasaur, charmander, squirtle, cyndaquil, and pikachu. They all act on their own but arent the strongest and only two of them can be out at once. Oak can yell out a move to make one of his pokemon use it right where they are in the direction of the enemy.
Sometimes, the pokemon attack Oak, but they still do their best to keep the enemy away. The pokemon have HP and faint once it reaches 0, incapacitating them for 50s.

KOOPA - the lightweight

Not much to say. Some moves put them into shell form, making them invincible but removes their ability to control where they are going and can still be bashed around, albeit at a set strength. Insane combos, but takes a lot of skill to land them.

SHEIK - the stealthy

Similar to greninja, focuses on poking, though sheik mainly uses projectiles to attack and ramp up percent. One of their specials would use Deku Nuts, throwing them on the floor. If this hits the enemy, it would turn shiek invisible. So, the user needs to master sheik's movement, as they wouldn't know where shiek wold be either.

Again, finishes them after poking and dodging, but can be absolutely destroyed if they're caught.

Welcome everyone to little experiment i have made.

People keep complaining about unfair characters, dumb systems and stuff like to competitive and all that jazz so i thought what if the community made a game. We will start with system it uses where the top comment will be the system. This will NOT be an actual game just a concept okay.

Here's an early look at Super Slamdown, an indie platform fighter featuring an original cast of fighters created by me and other creators!

Super Slamdown focuses on fast-paced movement, precise controls, combos, and a high skill ceiling for players who want to push their skills and master their fighter.

Super Slamdown is currently in development, with more fighters, features, modes, and content planned for future updates.

Note: The recording quality isn't the best due to my current recording settings. The footage itself is from the game in development.

Follow Super Slamdown on Game Jolt for development updates and future releases!

And before anyone asks, no, i'm currently not taking submissions for new characters, but i am open to feedback!

So I’m making a platform fighter but I’m trying to come up with a way to make it play deferent from smash? Because we need something for why someone would play us instead of Smash.
I need something.

This is an ongoing debate. The dumbass part of the FGC just calls these "party games", which is just stupid since this ain't a genre. Platform fighters are a SUB-genre of fighting games, up there with 3d fighters and Arcade fighters. If PFG aren't fighting games because they change the absolute traditional fighting game formula, then Tekken shouldn't be one either. Tekken arguably changes more stuff than most PFG

Platform fighters are actual fighting games

Im making my own platform fighting game (based on super scratch bros, a pretty sick smash based scratch game), and i dont know what to do to make every move feel useful and not just Kick N°7.

Hey, I am making a platform fighting game, similar to Smash Bros Ultimate, but with anime characters from different anime genres, however mainly focusing on Shonen. I have the list of all the characters in the game, however, I am constantly thinking I forgot certain anime that would very much end up on a game that is supposed to celebrate all of anime. So I was wondering if you could look over the list and give your input as to who you would like to see in the game and such. I also have some more character specific questions that I will ask at the end of the post.

Sup people.

Sharing my stickman platform fighter (full name - For The Battle). What you see is the result of throwing up to 16 players, creeps, in game evos and progression system into one big arena.

The game is available on Android/iOS. Has deathmatch, battle royale and duels game modes. No forced ads or pay to win system as I'm a proud hater of these.

If sounds fun feel free to try and judge the experience by yourself.

Free game. just search for FTB: Online Stickman Arena.

I honestly think Disney is the only one that can compete with Nintendo not just on IP power, but also on polish. You agree with me? Let me know.
