Spectrum of Violence is a 2D fighting game coded in flash. Me and Robert Gough have been working on it for over a year now. Its finally getting close to completion! I plan on posting artwork and maybe some animations until then :D

A little history about the project: I found a fighting game prototype called flash fighter years and years ago, then in december of 2007 I contacted the author and proposed we work together on make a full fledged game. We've been working off and on ever since then. We both have busy schedules and day jobs so it took a lot longer then expected Tongue

Animation by Joseph King (me) http://josephkingworks.blogspot.com/
Programming by Robert Gough http://www.studiohunty.com/

That is hysterical.

The video on your blog has a kind of dadaist charm, especially when the tubby guy randomly throws a bone and then a dog runs by. You just made my day.

Awesome, a 2d-fighter! The characters you've posted here look really neat. Best of luck with finishing this project, it's looking awesome so far.

Thanks for illuminating! That info will add an interesting wrinkle to Anon's personality :D

And now some bonus material!

Heres an original concept drawing for Otto.



and here we have some rough sketches, that otto sketch turned into his portrait illustration for the character select screen



Also here's a sketch i did for an abandoned character select screen.



The idea is that when you highlight a character they lift there head up or lift there beer or something, and then when you select the character they smash a bottle on the bar or flip a table or something, then the fight starts. This of course is a lot of work and I never got around to it but I may implement it in a future update to the game, what I've deemed Spectrum of Violence: 2nd Offense.

Definitely comedy is an aspect we've been trying to push!

Also on a random personal note I've been playing Street Fighter 4 (balrog/akuma/ehonda ftw :D) ... and I can't wait for KOF xii even though its coming out real soon!

Are you on Windows? I've been using CamStudio, which is free and decent if not great.

Anon reminds me of Akira from Rival Schools. But maybe it's just because they're both bikers with black uniforms and spikes on their shoulders.
