TRAF - Brazilian Fighting Game in Development

messed with this game for a bit. wish there was vs cpu mode. (not sure if there is one). With what little i played with, the system seem nice as it is. I;m not sure if the system is finalise and just doing characters but I think the throw system could be modify to be stronger. Character like LucyB which allow juggles, and Christano B which switches sided and recovery quickly are just way better than other cast who are just knockdown. I think throws that only does hard knock down should have or extended down time or quicker recovery so they can build their meter or get some oki.

Oh shit, is this game dead? It didn’t get funded. :s

As far as i know, they’re still working on it, but not full-time.

Are you actually trying to make the game simple or are you reducing unccessary elements to create a fresh idea and a new experience as a fighter. If it is the latter I am all for it and I would say I have been waiting for someone to completely hit the nail on the head with this kind of thought out system and you sir may be that guy. As someone who has a great appreciation for game design nothing can ever top the idea of less is more and done right it can be a beautiful thing in any situation. The problem with FG is no one has done it really right yet most of them dont really get it right or create to much other bs trying to make up for the lack of what they got wrong then there is some that get it kind of right but fail to deliver the full package because of other things they done wrong. I like the idea man I will try it out and push it out there and build some interest. I would be really interested to hear where your design ideas from your characters came from and what they are based off of. Hola at Preppy I messaged him and he got back to me almost immediately seems to be on it.

Aint dead at all just recently won best brazilian game award so its still popping

This was posted yersterday at their Facebook page

What’s the point of using UE4 for a 2D sprite-based game?

I’m alive and bringing some info, but I think this is my last post talking about this project as its developer.

As you may know I was the only programmer of the game since the beginning in 2009. I worked hard to learn, at the same time, programming, game development, and the advanced fundamentals that every serious (or professional) fighting game requires. And everything only on the weekends and in the stillness of the dawn.

I am proud of what I built and achieved with my own engine, having as the last achievement the prize of the “Best Brazilian Game” of 2016 in Brazil Game Show (largest game event in Latin America), even though it is still in development.

However, I decided to withdraw from Onanim at the end of September for several personal reasons. I am no longer involved in the project in any way.

Apparently the guys have already found programmers to develop the project on the Unreal Engine. I still don’t know if they will try to take advantage of my code or if they will do everything from scratch, but I believe they will announce all this information soon.

I want to thank you immensely of all the feedback and advice given during this journey. I also don’t know if they will continue this thread here at SRK, but I find it’s interesting to leave it open here.

I still have the dream to live developing games and for sure I will develop again, and this time not only as a programmer, but also as a game designer! So expect another fighting games from me as well. ^^

I really hope the game play isn’t drastically changed. it was solid over all.

Well,

So the game was drastically changed:

[list]
[]It has 4 buttons (Punch, Kick, Beta, Alpha)
[list][
]Punch and Kick are the normals
[]Alpha and Beta are the specials
[
]The order of damage of buttons high-low (Alpha > Beta > Kick > Punch)
[/list]

[]Grab is P+K
[
]Supers are Alpha+Beta

[]There’s meter management now “Gana” - 4 stocks
[list][
]Specials drain a little of the “Gana” bar’s stock
[]Supers drain the whole stock
[
]Hypers drain two stocks
[*]Normals fill the bar[/list]

[]There’s two life bars.
[list][
]When the first life bar of the character is completely drained, the “round” ends and the new round begins from there (Just like Injustice)
[]If the life of character is completely drained, the Gana bar will act like its new life bar as “last resort”
[
]If you finish the last regular life bar with a super or hyper, the match will end (it won’t use the Gana bar)[/list]

[*]The game now runs on Unreal Engine 4
[/list]

The new crowdfunding campaign will start on 30th January.

Spoiler

I’m not sure if I like the new system but I wasn’t a fan of the previous one that I could play on an Atari controller

Fascinating. I wanna give it a try

hard to say what I feel about the changes. some seem good and others…eh.

Not having the old programmer is a bit disheartning.

The old system had problems but i don’t know if i like how they’re making meter management work.

I hope at least the mobility works more or less

Anyway, i wish good luck on your future endeavours emirlima

Also the crowdfunding has started it

Looks like its only in portuguese so far, but if you want to get at least the game the R$30 reais options give you that(9.5205 U.S. dollars in today’s economy)

Keep the flag flying, this game is so pretty!

And here it is the “international” crowdfunding webpage: http://www.trajesfatais.com.br/catarse/

I think it only accepts international credit cards. Sadly, no PayPal option. But maybe now this game can gather some attention from SRK and other FG websites.

That’s weird, i’m pretty sure Catarse accepts PayPal.

Best of luck.

But it doesn’t have furries in it. How can you possibly like it?

It has a girl wearing an Platypus suit.

Sounds close enough

Their FB page was been updated with some character reveals:

Not sure about this one. The page says that he is an “intruder”. Dunno if he will be a character or a boss:
