This god hand clone actually looks.. pretty good.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xkffc-DQlp8

It looks slower and more sluggish than god hand but it's not a bad starting point to adjust.

>>716049553 (OP)
Damn, I dont wanna admit it, but it does look good. Granted it needs a lot of polish, and i do mean a lot. Still, I can see a v-classic in the works here.
Keeping an eye out for this. Thanks for the highlight OP

>It's literally a God Hand clone
>To the point where most of the moves and barks are almost identical
On the one hand that's kind of sloppy, on the other hand I'm honestly impressed that someone actually went out of their way to make a genuine clone. Good for them, I guess.

>>716049553 (OP)
a god hand inspired game would be cool but this shit looks like a literal carbon copy but even cheaper looking, down to the literal god hand mechanic and roulette wheel lol

Am I the only one that saw Ryo Hazuki in the thumbnail?

>>716051880
Yeah they never even released a version of the game since the PS3 release for PSN, I don't imagine they care.

It's okay to directly clone dead games. I think he should even be able to name it god hand 2 and if they try to sue him they should be shot for being gay about it.

It's TOO on the nose. Why play it when God Hand exists, if it's not going to improve the bad parts.

It's a one-man production by a guy in a fucking favela so I'm not gonna give him grief on it being a literal clone, frankly I'm impressed he managed to replicate a lot of it given God Hand was on a proprietary engine that's never been decompiled.

>>716054460

If it adds actual level design past the first level and keeps hard mode from being spamming a few efficient moves over and over, it'll be improved enough that it's worth playing.

Game looks legit good but the western setting doesn't fit the silliness

I dunno, the prostitutes doing a split to punch the player in the nuts made me laugh really hard

>>716057603
why doesn't it fit? westerns can be very silly. there is also no setting that cannot be made to be silly, silliness knows no bounds.

>>716049553 (OP)
for a prototype or wip vertical slice it doesnt look bad at all
could use some extra polish on the animations and a bit better character models and you got yourself a very solid clone

>>716057603
Brother, stage 1 in god hand is western themed.

>>716059131

Yes, I know but it's not really western, it's post apocalyptic

>>716059131
>>716058229
>>716059331
Hokuto no Ken and its inspiration Mad max-esque trash-scape is where a God Hand style game belongs give or take references to other Capcom properties. Obviously it can have elements of a Western, like the whole dude with no name visiting a fumblebuck village with a problem, but it can't be full western with Vaquerros.

>>716049553 (OP)
I'm kinda surprised nobody has attempted an indie Godhand clone before this afaik, seems like the kind of thing that would blow up with normies nowadays if you made it some roguelike slop

>>716059841
making good action games is probably the hardest thing indie devs can do
it's hard even for big devs and Crapcom and From Software (Platinum is dead) got the fucking genre locked down while other companies can MAYBE shit out something decent now and then

>>716059765
>but it can't be full western with Vaquerros.
you haven't said why. sounds to me like you don't actually have any reasoning beyond "i just want fist of the north star".

>>716059765
It's Wild West Fist of the North Star, anon. The entire soundtrack is a reference to wild west gunslinger ballads complete with names like "Broncobuster," half the stages are Wild West movie references (Ghost town with a saloon, mines, rich Mexican fat cat's manor, a graveyard, there's even a giant robot spider in reference to Wild Wild West), and half of the cast wear Wild West-inspired attire ranging from tall leather boots to thick belts with shiny silver buckles. Wild West is a perfectly fitting aesthetic.

>>716060262
>>716061438
Where are the fucking guns.
This is why the HnK Mad Max comparison was used in the first place, both have element of a western, but its world creates a different genre expectation.
God Hand makes no effort in hiding that it is a cartoon with enemies straight out of Final Fight, Gorilla wrestlers, etc. to dillute the western-ness only the first chapter utilizes to begin with. The rest is a carnival, not-Italy, Middle East, electric gimp cages etc.
The boring as fuck generic vaquerros and prostitutes with a color palette so dull it makes you think of Call of Juarez Bound in Blood don't aid that.
Speaking of which, God Hand is far from the prettiest game on the PS2, but Forastero's color palette makes it look like Devil May Cry 4.
Forastero in this brief clip is like someone making a Edo period samurai game with period accurate-ish character models but everybody uses lancers from Gears of War instead of swords, and it is a cover based shooter. It is like making a mecha game but 75% of it is pilot dressup.
Its tone and theme is all wrong, like Shaolin Soccer but color graded to look like Man of Steel, or DMC5.

it's cool but I hope they try to diversify themselves a little more

>>716062589
It's good because it's funny that a bunch of cowboys are just punching each other.

>>716059765
Anon look at all the latin american characters. It's clearly western themed, not 世紀末.

>>716049553 (OP)
Kung Fu the TV show but as a video game?

>>716062589
>genre expectation.
brainlet detected

>>716049553 (OP)
Hey, Forastero dev. I know you're stalking itt.
1. With the God Hand unleashed or the heat card effect active, all attacks became unblockable and if by some coincidence enemies blocked, their guards would get broken. Not like what Forastero is like now where enemies just take damage through their guards with what is equivalent to the examples above active.
2. Enemies airtricking out of your combo in God Hand can get infuriating already, giving enemies a fighting game esque combobreaker like a less reactable Bayonetta enemy is a terrible idea.

>>716064459
Correct me if I'm wrong but God Hand mode has the double property of being unblockable and also the counterhit effect that basically guarentees every hit staggers, I'm not sure if the video here shows that it's doing either.

>>716049553 (OP)
Meh, you are not Alexander.

>>716049553 (OP)
Ah yes Godhand. The game everyone says they love but didn't actually buy it

>>716066298
I bought a copy on the PSN years ago, but I just emulate now.

>>716066298
>if you didn't pay for something, you didn't experience it
is this some weird cope for someone who has only fucked prostitutes?

>>716062589
>Where are the fucking guns.
There's rocket launchers everywhere. Also it's a comedy game built off of RE4 scraps. If there were guns it'd be predictable, so instead everyone's a mentally ill kung fu cowboy trying to punch each other to death.

Also plenty of cowboy movies have gun-less fights, the classic "bar brawl" extended into a whole-scale beat 'em up makes complete sense.

its so ugly why the fuck would i play this over the actual godhand?

I am concerned by the lack of pummels
I want flashy mashers. Its not true GH experience without it.

>>716049553 (OP)

It looks like a bad flash game, but I like that even basic enemies can dodge from time to time. Once you understood the original, it was just a matter of doing jab-jab-jab----jab until they tried to guard so you could guard breaker them. It could be good.

>>716063001
>>716064425
>>716069597
>>716071267
See, this is how you know someone's a complete midwit. I'm gonna be honest, the game could use a blatant rework and will be completely forgotten if it doesn't change itself to make it truly unique.
Look, I get it, dev guy. You're obsessed with a game from the mid 2000s that was built with a C tier budget with D tier writing that wraps around to being unironically good. There's worse things to be autistic about. But you CAN'T just make a direct clone. You got a new setting - that's good! The gameplay and moves... they're basically a 1-1 ripoff of the original. That's bad. Like, lawsuit level bad if Capcom gave a shit. God Hand diversified itself purely on gameplay alone. It doesn't have an inherent "theme" to go off of. Like another anon said, you literally bounce from a western stage, to a cult hideout, to fucking Naples, a carnival, a hidden lab, a demon castle, and so on. But now since you want to copy the game, it's now ironically up to YOU to have a theme to go off of. Why should we play your game? What makes it different from God Hand? In a way, games like these are arrogance in a way; the idea that your version of the game you like is better in some way. Not to say you're arrogant, but that's the objective core. This is perfectly fine and natural. But if I were you, and I'm hard set on the cowboy theming, I'd jack that shit up to 20. Go all in. Don't just make them fight normally, make it funny AND cool. Gun-katas, fighting with guns, using spurs for kicks, parrying and dodging bullets, horse combat or assists or even background elements where you can use horses for combos! Gun clashes, a quick draw duel mechanic, coin flips, gambling, poker, tombstones, you have over a MILLION ways to go about this to make it sick, and you just wanna be a GH copy? Come on nigga. You genuinely have some gold to be an actual GH2 successor. Don't fucking squander it to fanboyism. Always dare to be greater than your inspiration.

and the retard i was replying to said this shit is bad because it doesn't fit with the "genre expectation" of a western. which is a retarded statement on multiple levels.
>unique
most games are not unique. if you only want to play "unique" games, you won't play many games at all. sometimes people want more of the same with just enough variation that it isn't something they have played before. that variation could mean as little as new combat encounters that are nothing but new permutations of all the existing elements within the game.

>>716049553 (OP)
It's trying, but the game doesn't seem over the top enough to really carry the torch. Wish the enemies shouted more insults and made more cartoonish screams, as is the game sounds so barren.

>>716077819

Erm shut up chud what's wrong with hecking cowboys

It's good to make games inspired by others but this is literally a clone, to the point where it's dangerously close to getting fucked by a copyright notice, I do not see anything that it really differs from the original game. that developer either is not thinking about it or is extremely careless, they should be more careful and try to make it more their own game instead of potentially not being able to release their game

>>716049970

>>716083209
>to the point where it's dangerously close to getting fucked by a copyright notice
capcom would rather go under than ever touch the IP again. The publicity of taking down an indie game would be too much trouble when they want to pretend God Hand never happened

>>716049553 (OP)
i think it's a good foundation, hopefully it gets faster and more polished, as anons said, some god moves using a gun could work. i kinda disagree with that other anon that going full western is bad, in fact it should be the base for more wacky variations of western themed enemies, like adding native americans with magic bullshit powers or confederate soldiers, maybe the former could spawn crazy animal spirits after getting knocked down, like godhand's demons. the soldiers could pull crazy bullshit like carrying actual cannons and other technological stuff.

>would you rather play good video game
>or shitty indie clone of video game

>>716049553 (OP)
I'm not some kind of genius dev but if I were making a God Hand clone, the God Hand ability would be the first thing I'd change. It's the weakest mechanic in the game.
I think a God Hand successor would merge the God Hand meter and roulettes into one, basically akin to supers in fighting games.

Solo dev projects that try to copy games made by big name companies just highligh how fucking hard game development is.
This game has the cheap disguise of being god hand but has dogshit sound design, music and animations, the hit effects suck, the general art direction is uninspired spaghetti western.
God hand's character design was wild and very clearly inspired by hokuto no ken which was weird already.
If i showed god hand gameplay and forastero gameplay side by side to somebody that doesnt even know what god hand is, theyd most likely think god hand looks more fun because of how good it looks in comparison.
If anything this just makes god hand look even better.
This is the same vibe i was getting with last rebellion, i didnt buy that game but i finished the demo and again, it only highlights how difficult it is to match the scale of a game backed by publisher funding and staff.

>>716085485

>>716049553 (OP)
Usually I don't care for rip offs but this spic copied 1:1 animations straight from God Hand because someone made a tool to extract all anims to blender and mod back any content several months ago.
Faggot should get C&D, this isn't some SoRRemake situation where he's making native windows version of an old classic, he's just trying to earn money by ripping off animation and gameplay data from God Hand with this generic cowboy art style.

>>716049553 (OP)
If any of this looks good to u troons u should genuinely kill yourselves
Understand the fact that u faggot scum are the reason video game industry is so degenerative with majority of games being are so shit nowadays
This is literally God Hand, but worse in every way
There is nothing new in this "new product" that u are giving platform to
No reason to play whatsoever, even for God Hand fan, but a troon who pretends to like games will find many reasons to play it

>>716086191
Oh, that explains how it's an exact clone of the animations. Copying them through observation would be so much effort that making 'good enough' versions would be far easier.

Only one poster so far recognized the thumbnail and called out the brazilian devs for stealing our culture. All of you need to be banned.

>>716049553 (OP)
this looks fun as fuck should I play God Hand?

>>716077512
If I ever make a deep down like this is on the to do list
With beat em ups you don't have as much control over your moves landing position as in real fighting, so I don't think this fits. your mid hit might hit the pelvis bone, hip, fist depending on the state of the enemy, his animation. so those outcomes would be rng. you can set up a hit but the enemy might do anything between your intent to press the button and the hit frame.

>>716088605
>t. seething retard that he couldn't think of these ideas first

You have no right to complain about the regurgitated slop in the games industry if you support something like this. It's not a "god hand-like" or a spiritual successor. It is a fucking CLONE. Nothing shown is original or shows promise of doing original things. It is god hand but worse and it's by a fucking faggot brazilian. There is no excuse. If you support this, you are a giant faggot and the reason the industry sucks. Indie games is where creativity is supposed to shine, where people can make ideas that bigger publishers and devs won't but instead we're getting an original faggot making the exact same thing but worse.
