On The Case



While play testers are finishing up their final run through the game, I'm finishing putting together the physical cases. The manual is short but cute!

Wednesday, October 10, 2018

Manual Transmission


The manual is done! It uses the art SodaPiggy drew for Twitchcon and will be included as a PDF. I'm also having a bunch printed for a limited physical release. It's short but I think you'll like it!

Beyond Life and Death



Through the darkness of future's past, the kaiju long to see. Here our heroes stumble into the game's final side quest where they'll fight the game's deadliest boss battle.

Video Game Cubed



Dr. Cube made his own mandatory RPG inside of Fighto Fantasy! It's a game within a game! This is the one you actually want to play, I think. It's way more epic and deals has tons more world building lore.

Wednesday, September 19, 2018

I Hear Radio Waves in My Head



Get to know the heroes a little better! Dusto can host one-on-one sessions with each hero live from the luxurious kitchen table in headquarters. Uncover secrets, annoy your friends, and get famous!

Super Duper


The soundtrack to Fighto Fantasy is now complete! Huge thanks to Glock & mr8bit for their outstanding work. We've made it all the way to the end with no help from bots! No collusion! Here's a track that plays in Russia.

Meet the Beetles



No, American Beetle does not become a paladin after defeating his dark half, but he does learn a sweet new move: Si Se Puede, a powerful, punchy statement that boosts the stats of his bros.

Goons on the Moon



Art imitates life: Fighto Fantasy allows you to post like a clown on the internet.

Turkey Jerky

 
This guy tends to spend more time in Central Square, but in Fighto Fantasy he's made it all the way over to Fenway. Who's had a run in with this local gobbler?

Wednesday, August 15, 2018

Moon Monster Mania


Moon monsters! Our heroes encounter all kinds of grotesque abominations up in here. What's Dr. Cube doing? Why's he producing all of these big uglies? Is it all a real estate scam?

Living in the Past


20 years ago I moved on from drawing goofy comics about fish guys and started making games. The project that would become Walthros was my very first one and it's still available free for anyone who wants to see some genuine awkward high school storytelling http://superwalrusland.com/wiki/index.php?title=Walthros

Fight It Out


In the Fighters' Paradise monsters from throughout the game appear for rematches. A perfect way to learn abilities for Robox! And some of the friends of Studio Kaiju might recognize themselves in the crowd.

Wednesday, August 1, 2018

It's Gonna Be Interspectacular


Final frontier. Final dungeon. It's time to take the fight to Cube and knock out all the clowns in his secret headquarters.

Burger Rhyme

New music! This is a digital tune written for the Sandwich Showdown minigame. Enjoy some beeps while collecting some beef!

Tuesday, July 10, 2018

Keep on Painting



I'm messing with color palettes again! I heard people wanted a Game Boy themed one. These are all unlockable after you recruit Robox, who can use his hacking abilities to modify the game's colors.

Building a Better Future


 What's a Kaiju Big Battel fighto without buildings? I've spruced up the game's opening fight scene and added a nice big FIGHTO to replace the old, boring text box. Get hyped!

Brawling in a Fighter's Paradise

 
When you're not busy saving time and space, how about brawling with your buddies at the Fighters' Paradise? Floating around in the space between worlds, all kinds of danger can happen here!

Kaiju Big Battel: Fighto Fantasy - The Game That Will Quack You Up

Wednesday, May 30, 2018

Snake's People


Snake people have gotten a bum rap lately. Sometimes they're super friendly and helpful! There's a special snake towards the end of the game who gives hints to help you mop up any side stories you missed.

Tuesday, May 22, 2018

Fight Card

 
Fighto Fantasy will feature Steam trading cards, badges, emoticons, and backgrounds when it launches! Nice, shiny versions of your favorite heroes flexing and posing, everyone's dream come true.

Wednesday, May 16, 2018

Friendly Neighborhood Saleswitch


Explore everywhere! You might find cats, crestfallen musclemen, or even a cool green witch with some great stuff for sale! This one's important to a side quest, I bet.

Wednesday, May 9, 2018

Friends in Need




Who's that lurking in the shadows watching over our heroes? A guardian angel? Someone powerful, no doubt! All will be revealed in time.

Thursday, May 3, 2018

Roll PLaying Game




Surprise! You're getting two games in one! Hidden in the depths of Fighto Fantasy is an all new indie RPG made by DR CUBE HIMSELF, featuring your favorite characters and up to 15 MINUTES of game play! Featuring Cube's iconic "Extending Neck Attack!"

Wednesday, May 2, 2018

For Goodness Snakes

 The Kaiju Big Battel heroes descend into a pyramid full of mysterious puzzles, hungry snakes, and choice beats. What could be waiting in the cursed depths below? A muscle mummy? A dinosaur?

Thursday, April 26, 2018

Bat Men


Gotta support the team. Turns out baseball gear makes for pretty decent armor against monster attacks!

Wednesday, April 18, 2018

Doing Hard Time


Fighto Fantasy offers a variety of difficulty levels. Nothing's more boring than a Hard Mode that just pumps up enemy health, so instead you'll get to fight new enemy types with more complex strategies. All enemy formations get remixed on each difficulty level too, so you can replay the game later and have a different experience!

Wednesday, April 11, 2018

Words of Mouth



If you've followed our progress and thought "This game is stupid, how do the Kaiju Big Battel heroes understand the language of ancient Egypt?" this one's for you!

How come some words are still in their original language, then? I'm not exactly sure, but I think that if you flex really hard while saying something the original phrase comes through the translator. I believe this was established in the Star Trek TNG season 1 episode "Worf v. Worf," where Worf's on trial for something or other.

She's a Rainbow


Legion season 2 starts tonight! In honor of the show's lovely colorful weirdness, here's a shot of a place in Kaiju Big Battel: Fighto Fantasy where nothing's quite what it seems. Something's gone wrong.

Saturday, March 31, 2018

Bunny vs. Bunny: Dawn of Dustice


Happy Easter Bunny Eve! Be sure to leave out french fries and Whopper Jrs. and you may just get a visit from the Bunny, I think. Anyway, someone in Kaiju Big Battel: Fighto Fantasy cloned Dusto Bunny for nefarious purposes. Who would do something this weird and gross?

Wednesday, March 28, 2018

Slugfest Soundtrack



Music time! This week's Kaiju Big Battel: Fighto Fantasy track is our new standard battle theme, perfect for punching out fearsome foes. Whether it's a fight with Cube's minions, robots gone mad, or a pile of snakes, this song's here to get you pumped.

Time Out of Mind



Two years ago today, we announced Kaiju Big Battel: Fighto Fantasy to the public for the first time with this wonderful image.

While most of the original concepts remain in the game, it's grown into a bigger, stronger monster of a project compared to the tiny little game I was picturing way back in 2016. It's already hours longer than I'd originally planned with a lot more content to go!

It's been a long road and we've all gone through some major life changes along the way. So much has changed for me in such fundamental ways that it's hard to even imagine my life when planning for the game began in 2015.

The finish line's in sight, and we'll get there! We all hope you'll love the finished result of these last few years of hard work.

Sandwich Showdown

Let's take a look at another minigame in Kaiju Big Battel: Fighto Fantasy's Hero HQ! This one is a Burger Time tribute courtesy of Spoonweaver Studios.

Players control the classic Kaiju Club Sandwich as he stomps around making additional club sandwiches. There's something horrific in that, probably. He's a monster who died a long time ago but his memories live on in digital form! Avoid angry bottles of ketchup and mustard and hit the ACTION button to transport to safety if you get stuck.

Combat Spotlight: Kung Fu Chicken Noodle Soup


Soup's on! The former rogue Kung Fu Chicken Noodle Soup now fights for the Kaiju Heroes, but he's always been a loose cannon. In Fighto Fantasy, Noodle has a Rage stat that grows each time he takes or deals damage. Once you're ready to deal some serious damage, use his Rage Out command to unleash all of that pent up anger in one big attack! You can also Cool Off, zone out, and exchange your Rage to restore your MP.

Rage resets to zero once a fight ends, so use it while you can!

State of the Kaiju: Spring 2018



Super Walrus Games boss Paul here! It's only been a couple of months since our last big news update and there's a lot to talk about. Let's get to it!

• I'd like to welcome Zack Corcoran to the team! Zack is drawing enemy art for monsters that appear in the game's final two zones.

Zack is a comic artist, illustrator, and pixel artist and the creator of Blasphemous Saga Fantasy, which updates Tuesdays and Thursdays. Zack’s major influences include video games, the cartoons he grew up with, and some anime/manga (but not most of it). His hobbies include baking delicious food that is incredibly unhealthy, playing video games, and taking photos of dumb stuff he finds while out and about. He is completely unable to resist petting any friendly cat.

Here are a few of the monsters he's drawn so far:



• I've taken on a few new tasks of my own. Soda Piggy did a fantastic job getting our Twitter account up and running and healthy and in the last few months I've taken over its weekly maintenance. I think I understand Twitter now! It's still a little scary. Bear with me for a while, I'll get the hang of it.

I'm also working on some of the game's graphics now, including its human NPCs, variations on existing characters, and some map graphics. Soda continues to work on larger boss graphics as we near the game's final areas.

• We've also received some outside contributions for minigames! In Hero HQ, players can check out a Space Invaders-style arcade game coded by OHR engine creator James Paige, featuring goofy, old-school Space Bug graphics. You've only got one life, make it count!


Richard "Spoonweaver" Upchurch also provided us with a second arcade minigame, this one styled after one of my all time favorites: Burger Time! I'm currently in the process of designing its graphics and integrating it into the main game.

• Our Steam demo is available for Windows. We've received some helpful feedback and some kind, cool players even made video playthroughs! Some major and minor changes (some for balance, some for clarity, some just for fun) have occurred as a result of players playing the demo as well as our internal testing team.

Glock & Mr8bit continue to release great new tracks for the game, be sure to check them out!

-----

So when is this game coming out? I'd like to give a concrete date but this project has taken a lot unpredictable turns since it first went into planning in 2015. It is 100% coming out this year, in 2018, and very likely in the first half of the year. But hey, you never know what's going to happen. Sometimes you just get stepped on by a giant monster.

Dogs.


Now presenting: DOGS! Yes, it's true, Kaiju Big Battel: Fighto Fantasy now includes multiple dogs. More than three different dogs will appear! Will they help you track down Dr. Cube? Will they aid you in battle? No and no. They're dogs, come on, just let them chill and do their thing. This isn't their fight. Maybe Cube even likes dogs, I don't know. Does anyone know? Even if he says he totally hates dogs, there's a really good chance that he's lying to keep up the bad guy show. He probably likes dogs. He probably thinks pugs are funny.

They are pretty funny. Good dogs, breathing's kind of worrying sometimes and yeah they can be loud, but that's true for all of us, right? No need to judge them so harshly. They're our friends and they eat the trash we're too lazy to pick up. Big, hairy land Plecostomus. Plecostomuses? We should look to them to guide us in tough, stupid times. Dumb times for all of us right now, right? I think I'm right.

Space Invaded

 
Every now and then you need a minigame break. Thankfully, we took some arcade machines with us on our journey through time and space! This Space Invaders-inspired game can be played in the Hero HQ.

Scantron Legacy

 
Don't forget to scan your enemies! Almost every Kaiju Big Battel: Fighto Fantasy encounter can teach Robox a new ability. Not Cube's Minions, though. Those guys don't have anything to teach.

Talkin' Trash



It's Gomi-Man! Cube's colossal trash monster is stinking up the dance floor as our final Kaiju Big Battel: Fighto Fantasy boss reveal. There are more bosses beyond this smelly battle, but they're going to be a surprise!

Name That Kaiju!



This is the last Kaiju Big Battel: Fighto Fantasy boss we're going to reveal, the rest will be a surprise! This guy, he's a gross guy. Real gross. Just disgusting. Come back Friday to see who it is!

Now Entering the Ring

Listen up! New year, new Kaiju Big Battel: Fighto Fantasy music. If you've played the demo you might recognize this one from the game's "What is Kaiju?" introduction scene.

Animals



I've mentioned before that adopting cats is a major side quest in Kaiju Big Battel: Fighto Fantasy, but it's important to acknowledge the other animals in the game. You can't let these wild animals into your home, but they're very friendly! Except for that crocodile. He's up to something shady, I bet.
