Indie Gaming: Fidgeting with M.U.G.E.N
Feb 6th
Running around with your head cut off for a week leaves me little time to write a blog post, so today I will be trying my best to do a double update.
Fighting games are quite the genre of its own. One on one fights in which you try to bust out absolutely insane combos and memorize complex button combinations make it one of the more difficult and more competitive types of games out there. I remember back in the days; I was so bad with Street Fighter II that I couldn’t even throw a Hadouken. The game when it initially made its way to the SNES was a hit with all the boys at school. They would go home and that’s all they’d play.
Indie gaming: osu!
Jan 30th
The Rhythm genre, made extremely popular with Konami’s Beatmania, Guitar Freaks, and of course Dance Dance Revolution, has always been an addicting one in my mind. As a talanted musician-in-limbo I have always dug these types of games, although that mainly pertains to Guitar Hero/Rock Band.
At the same time, however, Nintendo and Inis put rhythm to the stylus with the Japanese hit Osu! Tatake! Ouendan!, which sees players tapping hit circles and dragging across sliders to music as they appear on the screen. Over here, that became Elite Beat Agents with its exclusive 15 song library of popular western hits spanning the past 20 or so years.
