Fighting Game Idea

cool painters.
Character ideas for a game I wanna make, the characters are Angel, Alien, Sack, Skull.
I want it to be sort of like a 2D game where you shoot Paint or Ink, now, it won’t be like splatoon with guns, no, they will shoot out the paint from their bodies, it will prob be like a dungeon crawler. Also sorry for the small image size.

Interesting, you should adjust the image size though. In Aseprite scaling looks best but if you want something quick and messy you can do so in the forums by pressing any size(even smaller)

then you can manually change the URL size % to have a bigger number

Just make sure it is a 100% difference for best results

SasquatchDraws,

That’s a cool concept for a fighting game! Characters with unique body types like Angel, Alien, Sack, and Skull using paint/ink abilities sounds really creative. Especially since it’s not just shooting from guns, but coming from their bodies – that adds a cool twist! 2D dungeon crawler style also fits well with this concept.

Here are some thoughts that might help you flesh out the idea:

  • What kind of paint/ink abilities do the characters have? Do they have different colors or properties (corrosive, slippery, etc.)? Can they control the shape of the paint they shoot?
  • How does the paint/ink interact with the environment? Does it stain the dungeon walls? Can it create platforms or obstacles?
  • What’s the overall goal of the game? Is it a straight-up fighting game, or is there a story element or puzzle-solving involved?

For fleshing out your character abilities, you might find the Unity Ability System helpful! It allows you to create and manage different abilities within your game. Check it out here: Unity Ability System

Looking forward to seeing this develop further! Keep up the good work!

Oh, ok. Thanks!

Ok, I’ll answer! #1 So they can control how they shoot, if they hold onto Space, the harder the press, the bigger it is. #2 The paint will stain walls, and it can also push the enemies right into the walls. #3 I kinda want it to be like games like Helldivers where the lore is inside of the game as you play, But honestly, I want to have it Multiplayer and Singleplayer. That’s it!
One more thing, this is just an little brain idea, it might not happen.
