Right now, i've got a super basic MVP done. We already have very basic platformer movement working, and the game can already do rollback. However, implementing animations and hitboxes are going to be a pain, since i would need to define every single frame of animation for the sprite it uses and the hitboxes that get spawned. So, here are my options.

  • I can just code it all in Rust, which will be a pain
  • I can make a DSL and just define it in a .quad file or something, which would be easy to use once I get it all set up, but will be a pain to set up.
  • OR, (and this is a huge shift in direction) I just make this project be able to run the original KFM screenpack, including the IKEMEN/MUGEN scripting language.

This last option is super interesting, as while I'd sacrifice making a full on game with its own identity in exchange for making an engine, I would then gain the ability to run almost every single fighter made in that engine, which is almost 20 years worth of fighters. This would definetly require a different scope, but it might be worth it. Thoughts?
