![]() ![]() I have to say, Captain Falcon versus Game & Watch on Dreamland is, well, a dream come true. ![]() After it’s been downloaded, now you can verse each other with mods. What’s pretty neat is you can actually play online with these mods – when versing an opponent, if they have a mod that you don’t, you’ll be prompted to download it. Here you can download and use custom characters, stages, assists, and music, adding further variety to the character roster and stage selection. There’s also a lot of customization when it comes to mod support. (90s CRT, anyone? Less latency for gamepad input!) At any rate you do have some options if you’re running the oldest potato computer that you’ve ever owned. I wonder if it might be worth combining the “Graphics” and “Gameplay” sections of the game together. The player outlines might be useful if you’re playing on Deck to help you see where the characters are. You can also customize whether you want the HUD at the top or bottom, and whether player outlines should be shown only in teams or all the time. I’m honestly not sure what it does, as I haven’t seen any difference between having it on or off.Īs far as gameplay options, there’s color blind options, “shaking” for various on-screen elements, hit/dust/lighting effects, shadows. There’s also an option to turn “pixel perfect (black bars)” on or off. You can change the resolution, enable or disable vsync, change the display mode to windowed, bordered fullscreen, fullscreen. I mean, with a pixel-art game I’m not expecting much out of the gate as far as low, medium, high settings, etc. The graphics department is a little more barebones. Just make sure to turn the adapter to PC mode rather than Switch/Wii U. The point is, the customizable controls are definitely a praiseworthy aspect of the game.Īnd yes, of course your GameCube controller adapter will work with this game. Customize the deadzone and radius of the sticks and triggers. You can enable or disable auto-dash, double-tap dash, or short hop with a quick jump press. (Yeah, that was a mouthful.) You have options for enabling or disabling tap-jump. You could assign wavedash to the left shoulder button, and now you’ve made your life much easier when you want to quickly skid across the stage, without having to jam your fingers pressing the trigger down while inputting jump and diagonal on the analog stick all at the same time. Controls, as far as customization goes, is incredible – you can assign a shortcut button to wavedash or short-hop, for example. I like the retro-y theme of the main menu. I would say the mechanics do feel competitive, at least somewhat. In fact, it’s fun if you can actually find an opponent close enough to you that isn’t going to slow the flow of the game – which I’ll get into later. In the brief amount of time I’ve played so far, I’d say the gameplay isn’t that bad. the announcer is a little more “varied” she will make commentary based on whether you did a footstomp, or if your character has been idle for too long.the game makes the use of “assists” – characters that will temporarily assist you in battle.This basically kills the concept of L-Cancel there’s little to no landing lag when doing an aerial attack.you cannot “jab” during a grab to add damage – when grabbing, the only thing you can do is throw the opponent.shielding only protects the front of your character instead of all around, but your character can guard indefinitely, without a “shield break”.Build enough damage to your opponent, knock them off the stage. Standard attacks too: the standard one-two-three combo, side tilt, up tilt, down tilt, charagable smash attacks. And yep, specials are in here: neutral, side, down, and up. Add a third recovery move with Up Special. You can wavedash (move forward across the ground without actually walking), air dodge, grab, throw in four different directions. You deploy a shield in front of your character with the left or right trigger. In a nutshell, the mechanics are very similar to Smash. This is one that I’ve been looking forward to. Others were put out to the market way too early just to make a quick buck.įraymakers is the latest to hit the block. All of them try to replicate the mechanics of Smash in one way or another. There’s quite a few out there: Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl, Slap City, Rivals of Aether, Rushdown Revolt, Brawlhalla, MultiVersus, and Brawlout, just to name a few. Platform fighters is certainly not something new. The team behind the game, McLeodGaming, is also responsible for the infamous Super Smash Flash 1 and 2. In case you’re not aware, Fraymakers is a pixel-art platform fighter that closely resembles the mechanics from the Smash Brothers series. I’ve only spent 4.5 hours so far, but it’s enough where I can collect my thoughts onto a piece of paper – that being this post. Fraymakers just released in early access about 15 hours ago. ![]()
