Description

There really is no name for this thing. I would have used "pyfighter", but it was already taken. =)

Cool Stuff:

Attack Holds
Fluid controls with combos
Cancels (smooth transition between animations)
Sounds ripped from Enter the Dragon (like IK!)

Combos and special moves ==================

  LK, MK, HK, HK  => Roundhouse Kick   (hit the buttons quickly)
            J, K  => Jumping Kick      (hit any kick during the jump)
         Back, J  => Backflip
      Forward, J  => Frontflip

P1 Default keys:
Q: LK
W: MK
E: HK
A: Block*
D: P
F: (F)lip. Turn character around.
Up: Jump
Down: Crouch. (try kicking)

Attack Holds
In the original IK, attacks could be "held" on the attack frame. This is also implemented here by holding down that attack button.

Characters can be modified and animations are pretty easy to create. Open the "anim.def" files in the "fighters" folder to check it out.

Changes

Added menus, reworked graphics a little. Fixed some collision bugs (still some remaining).

Well done - I like it a lot (loved the original, too, of course). Code looks very good & readable, the way it should be. :)

I would thank you if you actually gave me credit for the game. Before you start packaging things up and distributing them on your website, why don't you consider giving credit where it is due.

actually, what you get is 2x'd now. right now, everything is blit'd to a buffer, then it is scaled before blit'd to the screen. i think this is better that scaling everything individually.

It's very simple, simply render everything to a buffer surface that is the reg size. Then scale resize that surface and blit it to the screen, which is 2x the height you have. Or simply increase the size of all your images/placement...

Fighting games aren't my thing, but this looks like old Apple II graphics, which I have a soft spot for.

fixed the profanity issue, also some minor things with button input.

hahaha, alright, code "cleanup" for today. actually, i don't have a good way of scaling up the graphics. i wish i could just have pygame automatically "2x" everything, but i'm not sure where to start.

I'm old enough to remember the original! So far so good, obviously it's early days so I don't feel I can give a start rating yet. Biggest issue I have is the resolution; yours must be the only screenshot that is actually scaled up! Also, there's no need to swear in the code comments - really ;-)

Belive me when i say i wanted to do a IK/IK+ clone not long ago. I will give it a try a soon as possible.
