Title: Boxing' game move options
Post by: steptoe on Sat 24/03/2012 13:02:33
Hi Guys

I'm just starting a 'Boxing' game...  

I'm wondering what you lot think about move options (uppercut, hook, straight left, duck etc etc).

Keys,  GUI buttons or by someway else?

What you would expect from this type of game?

Also, while I'm at it, what about some opponent names.

Views/comments welcomed

cheers

Brutus MacPhee
Billy "the boulder" Biggs
George Freeman

I'd like names in the style of:

Brutal-Bicci
Crazy-Cat
Darn-Duals
Insane-Icey
Mad-M0ds
Pincer-Ponch
Strangle-Steptoe
Trouble-Tabby
Wild-Wyz
...

... and an easy to use handling via mouse (click the bodyparts to punch or the buttons with the commands)
and maybe the option to change into kick, bite, insult (if it can get humorous)

Cool training! (http://www.smileyvault.com/albums/userpics/12962/thanx.gif) Stupot!

I did my last fight of that kind in Patrimonium (http://patrimonium.amberfisharts.com/en/info)
but it is still hard for me, nonetheless also lots of fun.

As an possible option it could bring diversity into the boxing game, if not meant to be a pure tactical combat sports game.

Punch-Out excepted, I've always prefered wrestling to boxing. Throwing the other guy off the ring, slamming them when they're down, punching the referees, grabbing chairs... that's so much better than boxing.

I suggest changing mad-m0ds to batshit-crazy-m0ds
