The Random Select Collab!

[R1665]

The RANDOM SELECT COLLAB will be a gathering of talented sprite animators with one purpose - to make one-on-one fights between characters drawn from a hat. Totally random.

There aren't a lot of open spots due to space issues, but if you're interested in joining up, speak up. You might just get in.

Anyway, what we REALLY need right now are character names for the drawing. If you're reading this and want the chance to see your favorite 2D fighting game character kick some ass, throw us a name! We wanna have a BIG pool to draw from, so help us out, wouldja?

Here are the rules:

1. 2D Fighting game characters only. No sonic. No Mario. Just fighting game characters.

2. No hi-res characters like Guilty Gear or Blazblue. Nothing against those characters specifically, it's just that the project can handle only so much size-wise. Gonna be a lot of data there and we gotta be frugal.

3. No MUGEN customs. If they never existed in a real game, they aren't allowed.

4. No version-specific picks. You can't pick "Pocket Fighter Chun-Li" or "Street Fighter Alpha Chun-Li". It's just "Chun-Li". The animator will choose which version they feel is most appropriate.

5. A character named multiple times will only be entered once. Winning fans will be credited if their pick wins. First named, first credited.

6. As per animator request, no shotoclones. They are all the same. If one is named anyway, one AND ONLY ONE predetermined shotoclone will be added to the drawing. Seriously, though. Those guys are tapped out. Why pick them?

Rules subject to revision later. I reserve the right to refuse any selection. I want to keep this as unrestricted as possible, but I know that some of you can get... rather trollish. That said, fire away!

-----------------------

For contributors, here are the build rules:
- 20 FPS
- 45-60 seconds in length per fight
- No text or story. This is all about the fight.
- Fights are 1 vs 1. No special guests.
- You don't have to show a "winner", but try to have some sort of climax.
- NO RAGEQUITTING! If you don't like the characters you get, tough shit. It's luck of the draw. Make your crappy characters awesome. Bring your "A" game. That's your job. There will be a lot of talent in this collab and you don't want to be the guy who chickened out...
- If you don't bring the pain, you might get cut. Just because you don't like your fighters is no reason to half-ass it.
- As a contributor, you get four character picks. Make them count. If you troll pick, you just might get stuck with your own guy. I would also recommend not picking a character you plan to use in the future. Not a rule. Just a suggestion.

Sketch Turner of Comix Zone for the Genesis.
One of the most entertaining fighting games I've ever played, even now.

Also signing up for an animation part. I'm new to Newgrounds, but not new to animating. I just need inspiration, I tend to end up coming short of ideas, resulting in a bunch of unfinished nothing-specials littered all around.

I have absolutely no interest in this collaboration but I am just posting here to say that you are one of the most amazing people ever to have even heard of that game and furthermore to acknowledge its glorious excellence.

I know right? So many great games, which loads of people didn't even know existed.. Few remember the days when you played games to have fun, not to be better than your friends.

I think I use to have that game, back in like the mid 90's on PC
