Some semblance of story? I have an idea!
Obviously the game is a bit funny in it's very concept. Brilliant even! I'm having a ton of fun with it... however.

I think the biggest issue I have is that it feels pretty disappointing to have literally no idea what the concept is behind the arcade ladder. The lack of information about the story and the last character almost makes me ask questions of wouldn't of had otherwise.

Who is 'Boss'? What is the point in making them fight? Why bring up a story at all? He mentions the ability to absorb the power of the different characters... but thats it.

I have an idea that may make this all work. Hear me out:

In many religions, there is talk or legend of a force or presence that exists BEFORE the given creation deity crafts the earth and everything/everyone in it. It is referred to in many religions as 'Chaos' or some translation/synonym of it.

What if this 'Chaos' is the one merging all the realms together? Instead of kidnapping the gods and forcing all these Gods/Demigods into confrontation, he hopes to have them off each other - which makes his task of bringing the multiverse back to nothingness quite easy - as he only has to kill ONE god instead of many. This also allows for a cool villain monologue (who doesn't love those) about how each of these deities stole space from his nothingness by creating worlds with no concern for his existance in the void.

So all of a sudden, Asgard is merging with Olympus causing Odin and Zeus to believe they are each being invaded by a sinster force, and they fight! It also would allow for some logical order of the enemies (fight Athenia, then Zeus, then your characters realm merges with the Judeo-Christian Pantheon so you fight Moses, then Jesus.) This adds a ton of depth to the game, and would make voiceovers (I HOPE THESE ARE COMING) feel logical and topical.

Overall, I LOVE the game. Hope that you guys keep working on this, cause it's magic!

Yes, i would like to see a better story as well.
And not only cloud humanoid figure which even dont has a name, but truly myphological chtonic force as the final villain and mastermind behind tournament - something like Apep or Tiamath, or Leviathan - well, the force that was before Gods.

And of couse, more Gods and more Pantheons. As example Assyryan-Sumere-Babylonian, with Gods like Marduk, Ishtar; Ancient Semitic with Ba'al, Dagon, Moloch, Anat; Slavic Religion wiht Chernobog, Belobog, Perun, Svarog, and more Egyptian Gods...



By the way, The Trashman | Gamekit.com, your story is good.
This "Chaos" you speak of - its basically Amatsu Mikaboshi, the Chaos King, masquerating as Japanese God of Death from Marvel Comics.:joyUB:

Exactly right!

Lots of religions have this kind of a figure. kind of figured it would be a good way to 'unite' all the ideas without saying they are all fake/invalid.

Right on the spot, this game needs a story and could definitively use some sort of playable mechanic for inbetween fights. It doesn't have to be anything too complicated, but something in the lines of the car trashing stage in Street Fighter, or anything else that gives players a break would be a great addition. Keep up the good work!
