When
reading from my bucket list, there's two specific ideas on the top of
the 'gaming' section. To make a fighting game, and to use digitized
sprites in a game. Now, by digitized sprites, I mean to have an actor
act out the moves of the character in front of a green screen. The best
examples of which would be the first three entries in the Mortal Kombat
franchise. So, why the title 'Average Fighter'? Well, it came from a
joke I made on Facebook, on how there should be a fighting game with
everyday people, like an old Granny, or
a lifeguard. And since then,
the name just stuck with my concept for a fighting game. I purposely
kept the idea of 'averageness' when I choose the fonts and the look of
the fighting game screen. The joke now being that the game's called
'Average Fighter' yet the content is anything but. I'm not entirely sure
it turned out in my
favour. Regardless, here is a small concept for the masses on just how Average Fighter could look.
Special thanks to both Weekend Superhero and psylentknight for collaborating with me on this small little goofy idea.
