While I was playing around with the MUGEN engine the other night, the following idea came to my mind, "why not make an AGN fighter?" (for those who don't know, MUGEN is a fighing engine which a person can 'make their own game'😉
I'm currently working on learning character coding (I've already started a SpiderMastermind from Doom), and I've got a wealth of resources for sprites and sounds, and I have a few decent programs for assembeling the characters and layout. Would anybody be interested in this kind of thing being made? (I'll provide more details if there's interest in this...)
Would this be a stand alone game or an mmo type thing?
If we did an AGN fighter, I think it would only work if we tried to use AGN characters, or literal manifestations of usernames. Otherwise it'd just be another fighting game.
Just my 2 cents.
I agree with Decipher, though only if I get to be one of the playable characters. :P
I wanna be the most powerful.
@ SixTen - it's a stand-alone thing
I was thinking along the same lines that Decipher was.
With playing around the engine last year, here's some of what a person can get done (these aren't my characters, though)
and with the way it's done, just about anybody can be made into a charater of their liking (hell, maybe Masa can be one of the bosses...)
If anybody is interested in helping me, hit me up via a PM or IM
Man, you gotta tell me what program that you are using! I'd like to try making my own!

Back when I used to go to GU a loooong time ago, I remember them doing something like this. It was pretty cool.
Uh... I didn't say that, Me2. :P
Sounds like this could be some fun. Now all we need is some art talent.
*glares at me2* (just kidding, lol)
as for indie artists, I'll have to look around some of the mugen forums for opensource sprites
take this for example, here's some rips from Capcom vs SNK 2 (credit goet to Phantom of the Server for these)
depending on how this goes, there can be ports for DOS, Windows, and Linux
