Yesterday, my brother re-introduced me to the wonderful world of MUGEN. I’ve seen some youtube MUGEN matchups before and did a little research to find out what it is, but I had never taken the time to actually download and try making my own fighting game.
You see, M.U.G.E.N is a freeware 2D fighting game engine that emulates Capcom’s Street Fighter and allows the creation and integration of customer characters, stages, game modes etc… Ever fancied pitting Peter Griffin against Homer Simpson? Or Spider-man vs Superman? Or Wolverine vs Batman? How about Mario vs Sonic? Ok, with the exception of the last one, no video game has ever allowed you to do the other match-ups before!
