Hey so lots of people asked, so lets take a look at Pocket Bravery! This Retro-styled 2D Indie Fighting Game has been in development for lets say, a hot minute. However, its now finally 1.0 and fully released out on steam (console soon) with tons of features, Rollback netcode, and a very reasonable price tag for everything you get. So while this isn't a review or anything like that, I think this video will arm you with some knowledge of what the game is all about, and if it will appeal to you!

@@captainmega6310 Yeah, Trajes Fatais was a previous fighting game that Jon Satella (Statera's founder and producer of Pocket Bravery) was working on as a producer. To summarize things because the drama is too long and part of it is still going: The dircetor is a incompetent dounche that let the project being robbed by the "person of confidence" that he choose to take care of the Crowd Funding money. Jon tried to tell the director (Onofre Paiva, also known as Onocider), that something was wrong and some third party companies weren't being paid yet, but Onofre ignored it because "he was too busy on his art". The game was supposed to release on 2018, but the robbing made a huge impact on the team and Satella left furious and frustrated. Onofre is to this day "making" Trajes Fatais, even though the rest of the team also left the project because he doesn't know how to move on with the steps of the project. He now, instead of making the fucking game, keeps making long 30-60 minutes "making-of" videos about how much of a artist he is, how his creative vision is fucking sick, but never shows anything about the game itself or talks about the project per se. Well, he recently said there was a small team that he made a agreement to work on the project with him, but I still don't know if it is they trying to take Trajes Fatais from him or him trying to suck resources from other people again. There's a brasilian channel called "Segredo dos Games", that is working on a documentary about the development story of Pocket Bravery and Renato (the channel's owner) said he will also mention new details about all the Trajes Fatais controversy that he discovered over his research. I recommend you go there because there will be English subtitles, so you will be able to understand the video pretty well. Sorry for the bible to explain you, but this topic had a lot of info.

No fluff either,they all play critical roles, no one is just trying to find out what tue strength is, or trying to show wrestling to the world, no no this is an ACTUAL story.

We from the Brazilian scene are very proud of PB for such a indie fighting game with so huge quality and content. For 20 bucks, if you are a fan of the genre, you can not miss it! KoF is very famous in Brazil, so yes, the game is heavily inspired by it, but with its own ideas and identity as well. There was another update today, they were aware of some issues, including the input problems. Maybe it got solved now. I, myself, have not encountered any issues so far.

Your Overview is just about perfect. It covers the main areas of the game: * Core gameplay of fighting games and conventions * Developing skills at combining attacks and using each characters resources successfully - and improving or mastering progression through the game. It's really helpful showing the basics of the gameplay and then building what's possible bit by bit towards the outrageous but very cool and satisfying combos, which you demonstrated! This kind of Overview would be very helpful for anyone considering purchasing this game and seeing how much depth and value and enjoyment is packed into this game for the price listed. Personal thoughts are the core gameplay with the training modes to help practice and improve and pull-off moves with a range of characters for different play styles (both appearance and gameplay preference) is really tempting offer to sink a lot of hours trying to become "king of fighters" either locally or online. Additionally, there's already been a few pre-release competitions with some awesome matches played, to enjoy seeing how the "pros" handle the different characters!

I also am having a lot of problems with the input reader and input overlap. It's a little bizarre how the inputs seem to require high speed, but not much precision. I can do double quartercircles with 2323 and I can do DPs with 636. Supers that require qcb+qcf can be input with 2123, which I get on accident all the time when trying to do 236 AND 623. I feel like I have to restructure the way I do basic fighting game motions to avoid overlap. Or just grind for a long time to make my inputs precise.
