openBOR Games You Need to Play

[@brazilmugenteam]

Hi there, I am part of the official OpenBOR team and I would like to say thanks for helping sharing the engine. I am also a coder of OpenBOR games and I am coding a spiritual sequel of the arcade game "Captain America and Avengers", called "Avengers United Battle Force". Will you make a part 2 of this video? I would love to help you with that with some suggestions and maybe seeing my game on the list :)

[@davpreec]

Fancy seeing you here hahaha im sure i could help with some suggestions too :p

[@brazilmugenteam]

@@davpreec hehehe I good to see you here, buddy. I follow this channel since long time. I am waiting for his reply :)

[@davpreec]

Me too its a great channel :D and good to see you here too buddy hopefully you get a reply :)

[@SegaLordX]

It's good to hear from you. I'm definitely open to suggestions and looking at some of your work. Email me [e-mail]!

[@davpreec]

Im sure he will he has some fantastic work in the openbor community and he's also a cool dude :D

[@jimsicle]

That He-Man game sets the bar way too high xD such a fantastic game!

[@sideswipe1261]

I have the BORMOTU on PC. Really, really would appreciate how to get this on a Dreamcast selfboot disc! I’ve been hoping for for *years*, and hoping someone could help. I’m not much of a PC gamer (last PC game I beat was “Dark Forces II” on Dos 6 or windows 3

[@sideswipe1261]

SEGA Lord X, reading that you play video games with your daughter made me smile! On Christmas I played Virtua Fighter 2 against my nephew. He whooped me! Epic Saturn Flashbacks on my bro’s’ 180” home theater projector controller was broken. 😶 Dude, you need to record family moments if you can (for yourself) so you don’t lose them.

[@sideswipe1261]

I had to pause the text to watch this “X-Men”... so smooth, early 90’s outfits, and multi player thrashing looks good!

[@spongeknock7387]

I need to play that HE-MAN game!

[@teknomax7883]

I played it around this time last year. It's Sweeeeeet, but hard. My advice, go with Skelletor. He's the best.

[@chrisoliver5302]

I just downloaded it myself...WOW. I've had more fun with that game than I've had with MANY AAA titles. Boy does it bring back memories too of all those He-Man action figures I had. I am IMPRESSED with this one.

[@tonyatliss3709]

The same here

[@tonyatliss3709]

@@chrisoliver5302 how can I download this on my laptop help me please

[@Manfromthelandofsmiles]

Where do I find the download for He-Man

[@teknomax7883]

Btw, you mentioned some of the greatest, sure, but not all best. You missed: - Outworld Assassins - Night Stalkers X - (the Streets of Rage Project I forgot the name) - Splatterhouse 1, 2 & 3 - Dreams of Rage - Marvel's Infinity War

[@JayVGBND]

Final Fight LNS and TMNT Rescue Palooza comes to mind as well

[@MaidenHell1977]

Well that Masters of the Universe game looks spectacular.

[@msmander87]

That He-Man game looks legit! I love the Open BOR games, I got a bunch of these games on my modded Playstation Vita!

[@veganfoodsYOUTUBE]

I’m glad You did this I’ve been working with these types of things more these days

[@loki.odinson]

Would love to see you do an update for this in 2021 or 2022. Great video. Thanks!

[@docsavage4921]

Legend of the Double Dragon is outstanding. I think the dev could make his own IP using the fighting system and make some bank, assuming OpenBor allows monetization (Either as standard policy, or part of a special deal with Openbor owners)

[@docsavage4921]

@Curtis Lang Recreations of the arcade and NES games are everywhere, most of them mediocre. Legend of Double Dragon is a different beast. It's based off the SNES Super Double Dragon, which is quite different from standard double dragon games in terms of gameplay and sprites. And this remake isn't a 1:1 conversion, but merely uses the look and feel of that old game as a base to create something entirely unique. For example, the way it blends the fighting systems from across the entire franchise into one elegant system that lets you switch styles on the fly. It's a very deep system that you can ignore entirely if all you want to do is punch, kick, jump kick, and grab/throw your way through levels. But the ability to master 100 hit combos, Ultras, and more is there for those who want to invest the time. An ambitious fan game, to say the least.

[@CoolHandJames]

I didn't even know this existed, definitely checking this out now, thanks again for the obscure content!

[@ProjectGenesisMusic]

Definitely check out Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Rescuepalooza, Justice League United, and Marvel Infinity War they are some of the best out there right now next to Legend of the Double Dragon.

[@wiibrockster]

That "Masters of the universe" beat em up looks great! It's like playing an episode of the Filmation cartoon from the 80's.

[@wiibrockster]

@Lucas de Abreu Yeah. I like that look for some reason.

[@ZVitor]

Thanks for recomend Marvel First Alliance. But It is a Old game, look for Marvel Infinity war so much more contect and polishment

[@brazilmugenteam]

I've sent him an email with many OpenBOR games and I've suggested your game as well :)

[@heroesytumbas]

Are Sabretooth or Omega Red playable?

[@barjothelastuser5815]

And Justice League United

[@MrDeefleparde]

Super Double Dragon was my favorite beat'em up of the SNES generation. Cant wait to try out Legend!

[@Rodzilla97]

tmnt rescue plaooza, and He=Man are my favs

[@one7decimal2eight]

I highly suggest you look at double dragon reloaded. One of the best and most faithful to the arcade double dragon games ever made.

[@PhntmStudios]

bruhhh that He Man game looks so cool. they should bring it to PSN.

[@newnameauto]

I honestly expected all of these games moving forward to pack the content of D&D and have the graphics to look like He-Man

[@astrobollo]

For a follow up to this video I recomend to check out Final Fight LNS Ultimate and Streets of Rage 2X. In their current states, these are two of the finest and fun OpenBOR games that are available right now. :D

[@yadigzz]

The map at 6:20 is looks exactly the same as the first level on Ninja Warriors for the SNES

[@lukegregoryCOHBL]

Brilliant, I'd never heard of any of these or the engine! Thanks for the enlightenment 👍

[@Hwi1son]

I'm playing the Double Dragon openbor game today it is fantastic. I liked it so much I donated to them

[@lunsj]

I have OpenBOR set up on a Raspberry Pi 400 with dozens of games. It's crazy how many of these things there are out there.

[@fabfreebird1]

That He-Man game looks AMAZING, wow. It looks better than most modern indie titles.

[@ShinryuZensen]

I wonder if it could run on the Vita. It would be amazing.

[@noosense]

Final Fight LNS Ultimate is my favorite. I play on my phone constantly playing final fight with Street Fighter characters is amazing

[@JayFFAFAlesanaES]

My favourites were always Maximum Carnage, Golden Axe and Streets of Rage 1/2. Also had Batman Forever but it was frustrating and never got far. Haha

[@GreenHawk84]

I would love to develop OpenBOR games. There are SOO many opportunities to make amazing beat em ups. I am actually surprised nobody has done a Star Wars beat em up, new TMNT, or continued that Resident Evil BOR game that had a ton of potential.

[@SirPootaso]

I played D&D: Shadow Over Karameikos on a Chinese game tablet running OpenBOR on Android some years ago, and then forgot about the platform. Looks like it came a long way since, I'll have to check it out, these games look amazing.

[@Rodzilla97]

the He'Man game is one of the best beat em ups ever. absolutely awesome

[@cmbaz1140]

Never heard of this before...but i will take a look at this truly hidden gem...

[@PutlerHuyIo]

Love these niche/obscure topics! Super like!

[@AVENTUS03]

That He-Man game looks brilliant ! You should do a current summary of all the truly great looking and great animating BoR games available on Dreamcast (or Saturn if that’s a thing) !

[@georgeweeman9057]

played a Resident Evil BOR many years ago, and thought it was fantastic as well....Might of been a Dreamcast Port.

[@blacksunshine7485]

THE BEST OPENBOR - JENNIFER,Sega Brawlers Megamix,Simpsons Treehouse of horror, TMNT Rescue Palooza and the best of all - Streets of Rage 2X

[@ProjectGenesisMusic]

Awesome list and finally someone show cases Legend of the Double Dragon! I don't know if you have seen the guy's video on how to do all the awesome moves yet with style switching because not showing those off totally under sells that game! Thank you for showing good footage of the He-Man one I have been on the fence even trying that one, but I'm definitely gonna check that out. I'll have to check out the D&D and Golden Axe I haven't heard of those 2 yet I have Golden Axe Legend which is pretty sweet. Definitely check out Marvel Infinity War it is I think the sequel to First Alliance and also has a polished version of First Alliance included. Also Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Rescuepalooza and the just recently updated Justice League United by the same guy that did First Alliance and Marvel Infinity War. Sorry for the rambling openbor gets me excited haha. My latest video has my top 5 openbor games and I demonstrate most of what I just rambled about. Looks like I'll be watching all your videos for the rest of my day haha.

[@АнтонСергиенко-ь2ц]

Why do they look so terrifying? Only Legend of the D.D. has a normal look that is pleasant to look at...

[@derivesrurale]

i really liked your observation about D&D The Rise of Warduke regarding the possible future of the Beat em' up genre... 3 years later i wonder if some progress was made at that level, are there beat'em up games with rpg elements+ open world map+expanding mission system?

[@Skellotronix]

Dragon's Crown, Castle Crashers, Scott Pilgrim vs The World, those are the ones I know.

[@Fattydeposit]

I remember the novelty of some of these openBOR mods when I was exploring / learning about Dreamcast homebrew - but the novelty of the often amazing looking ripped sprites and music wore off when the simplicity of the game engine itself became apparent - hardly any of them stand out in the gameplay department. Maybe you had to be there back in the day because clearly for a while there a lot of people put a lot of time into making the brawlers of their dreams..but ultimately I find various SOR2 and SOR3 mods on the Genesis way more gratifying to play with mechanics and movesets on another level to what is seemingly possible using openBOR.

[@docsavage4921]

I know exactly how you feel, which is why I'm so impressed with Legend of the Double Dragon. You should check out some KZbin videos on it, the fighting system is VERY deep. We're talking 100 hit combo, multiple styles, years to master with no two games being alike deep.

[@astrobollo]

Check out Final Fight LNS Ultimate, I believe you'll like it. :)

[@lunsj]

Sega Lord X sounds so different 5 years ago. I guess he hadn't found his "radio voice" back then :)

[@matttherrien9608]

Would love to put these on my SNES Classic or PS Classic!

[@Gaming_since_the_eighties]

Damn that He - Man Masters of the Universe game, i need to catch up with it. The only Masters of the Universe game i´ve ever played was on the Commodore C64. I know i repeat myself sometimes but keep the good work up.

[@jesusbear7367]

You should check out Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Rescue Palooza. It's available on Gamejolt. It's made by the same guy that did the Power Rangers one.

[@BlackHammer0891]

The Nightmare On Elm Street 3 game is dope

[@dernierevolonte8426]

I think the best D&D openBOR game is Knights & Dragons: The Endless Quest

[@jaysanj152]

Okay,that He-Man game really shocked me..

[@IanMicheal]

I have updated Openbor for dreamcast so now it can render 16 and 32 bit modes www.dreamcast-talk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=11829&hilit=openbor Load larger games I'm still developing it

[@MightyistheRCGamer]

How do I play he man what emulator?

[@Wordsmith-qu9yc]

Please can someone tell me how to find the offset, hitbox/graphics and attack co-ordinates for openbor sprites from mugen. I have tried using GIMP but can't understand it. Regards, Gary.

[@ShaneMoneyBaby]

I know i'm asking an age old question, but are there any controllers that work for this without xpadder yet?

[@elliotdavies3557]

Fookin love openbor i love it my best game on openbor is Street fighter Taiwan you can play as any street fighter and do all there special moves with a press of a button no press left down and a it's just press a for a hadoken or dragon punch by pressing a awesome openbor game and its Street fighter as a 2d side scrolling brawler update i now have Street fighter Taiwan and 478 other openbor games thanks to you tube i was able to download from here you tube

[@tomjung4960]

do you know if any of these games have a jumping power bomb like mike haggars on final fight?

[@mole28]

i'm a big fan of Masters of the universe and this open bor game is awesome!

[@maxmatson1578]

Did anyone notice? that the background music in the "Double Dragon" game was music from "Big trouble little China" movie!

[@oleblue73]

Yup. Good ear.

I wish Kurt Russell was my uncle!!!! I want my dying words to be.. "Give Me Your Best Shot pal.... I can take it!"

[@ProjectGenesisMusic]

I got so excited when I got to that part of the game. The final stage is all Bloodsport music its so great

[@Subninja2012]

That “Big Trouble in Little China” music though!

[@petebotGSD]

Greg Coleman now there’s a beat em up that needs to happen

[@amerikaOnFire]

Yup!! I recognized it immediately. And then realized that I NEED a Big Trouble in Little China game to exist. Preferably a good one :)

[@ProjectGenesisMusic]

Dude I lost my shit when I got to that level and heard the music I was like wait a minute...............oh my god yes! The final stage has music from Bloodsport it gets you so pumped for the final boss haha. I wish he would of shown off the style switch moves and Killer Instinct combos you can do there are moves from movies and other fighting games its great. Easily the best openbor game out there until the same guy finishes his next one Ultimate Double Dragon which he has a demo out for. So good!

[@ZI-WAN-KHAN]

Ultimate Double Dragon will definitely take the top spot, cause the demo is out now and I'm playing the game everyday. 👍

[@videogames4life475]

How do I get the heman game?

[@chadcook5934]

Double dragon neon is another good game to try if you are new to these games

[@BlackMoore82]

Worth it just for the HE-MAN/SHE-RA game alone, I teared up a bit seeing that.

[@sideswipe1261]

Hi all! Is there any way to get the amazing BOR MOTU game either put on a self-🥾 Dreamcast Disc? I have BOR projects that work Jiminy Swift on Dreamcast (Aliens/ Predator is sweet). I just haven’t found a way to I have it on my pc, but not sure how to get the MOU side-scrolling beat’em up on to a disc that can hopefully run on my ‘99 #DreamCast. I have it on my PC, but just got a new TV, itching to play that game. Any help and I’d sing your praises!

[@chocobochick5390]

I want a high speed platforming beat 'em up. I have a rpject I've been working on that is something like that except it's more like Marvel Vs. Capcom instead of SoR.

[@astrotrain3332]

I'm getting horrible screentearing on the D&D game. I don't see any settings for V-Sync in the game... any tips?

[@Slashgordangames]

Where can I find Beats Of Rage for PC? Its not available on Steam.

[@TrashfordKent]

I was not aware of open BOR thanks for the video and bringing it to attention. I'm off to play me some fight and go right :)

[@ProjectGenesisMusic]

Make sure to get Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Rescuepalooza, Justice League United, and Marvel Infinity War

[@TrashfordKent]

@@ProjectGenesisMusic cool thanks for the tip

[@kapparomeo]

Very informative video, I’d never heard of OpenBOR before this.

[@sideswipe1261]

Cyclops Productions Every time I’ve seen it, it’s OpenBR.exe, so I assume the needed emu for He-Man is already included. I would love a Dreamcast self-boot of the He-Man game!

[@linuxstreamer8910]

i wish Dungeons & Dragons Rise of Warduke could run in openbor it just crashes if i try

[@michaelhealy120]

I was playing a bruce lee game ive never seen before. it must be this openbor. its great fun.

[@Mr.madmight266]

3:44 Haha look at that, the game that Mike Matei probably wanted so badly xD

[@thecastiel69]

TMNT Rescue Palooza is the best openBOR game

[@konsumer]

Better than Sailor Moon?! Doubts.

[@howtodraw2820]

Man... This intro músic in vídeo.. What game and what stage is???

[@DrGamelove]

I thought the side scrolling beat em up genre would go in the guardian heroes direction when I played it. Instead of jump, punch, kick and that’s it, having tons of specials, combos and juggling added. Actual depth. But that never really happened and even modern throwbacks stick to the basic attacks.

[@ShinobiShowdown]

TMNT: Rescuepalooza should be on here it is 4 player and has 60+ unlockable characters.

[@ProjectGenesisMusic]

I was shocked it wasn't its been the most advertised openbor game I've ever seen.

[@RpRocker815]

Where is Final Fight LNS Ultimate?

[@astrobollo]

Agreed, the best openbor game EVER!

[@1914fallen]

Can these games be uploaded into a retro emulation device such as a RG350 or Arcade Box? Thanks in advance!!

[@NIGH11]

Great new episode ! A lot of these games look to be like Saturn games that never were!

[@Gac3la]

The problem i have with all these games is that all feels the same. Same mechanics, same movement, most of those games are clunky and have the same bugs. Yes, some are better than others but basically are all the same.

[@mobileplayers5008]

Bruuh because it's beat em up games

[@Gac3la]

@@mobileplayers5008 no, it has nothing to do with it being the same genre.

[@jacobsimpson398]

He forgot Marvel Infinity War. Great game! Better than MFA that he chose...

[@CraigCougar]

There are clearly some amazing OpenBOR games out there, but what holds me back is not knowing how to use my USB controllers to play them. Does anyone have software suggestions or know of a setting in OpenBOR to input controllers?

[@matane2465]

Every open bor game I've played allows you to easily map the controls to a usb controller in the settings. I use a TTX Tech ps3 controller.

[@jordonwilson9647]

Where the hell is Final Fight LNS on this list!?

[@jodafro619]

there is a double dragon game called double dragon: reloaded that you and everyone must play!! it is based on dd 1 and 2 and you can also play with and against some of the wrestlers from wwf superstars. the love that went into that game is pretty much near the level of of attention found in streets of rage remix. you will not be disappointed !

[@Kashmir23]

Ive seen a you tube video showcasing it youre right

[@kadajshin]

Is there any Final Fantasy openbor game??

[@510kaine]

Great video can all these games work on dreamcast to because i added openbor games on my dreamcast i dont have these games like he-man and power rangers

[@brazilmugenteam]

No, most of the recent games won't work on DreamCast. The DC port was officially depreciated and won't be supported anymore.

[@shawnc5244]

Why include Marvels First Alliance? It's a older version of a better game. Infinity War has new levels and more characters, around 80+, and it includes First Alliance. Also there is a Street of Rage game that is good too.

[@The_Badcompany]

I don't know anything about emulation or have the technical knowledge. But it would be really cool if you could somehow play these on a console. Is that something that can be put on a retro pi? I would love for someone to make a retail version of this and sold on Etsy to play on like Saturn or something.

[@rodrigovazquez420]

yes you can play them in retropie. These platforms are actively supported and may be compiled with the latest OpenBOR engine. ( Android Windows Linux Wii PSP ) The following platforms are still available as legacy binaries, but are no longer supported and may not be compatible with current iterations of OpenBOR. (Dreamcast, GP2X, GP2X Wiz, Mac OS X, OpenDingux)

[@The_Badcompany]

@@rodrigovazquez420 thank you, that's awesome to know! I'll have to get with my tech advisor and get it on one those.

[@rockhyde7775]

There’s even an Ed Edd n Eddy one! Have you checked that one out? I’d like to see a SpongeBob or Hey Arnold one or even an unconventional anime cartoon crossover for that matter. By any chance, have you checked out MUGEN? It’s fun to mess with and there’s plenty of characters from several works in it and specified games made using that engine. How about RPG Maker? You should check that one out too and maybe do a recommended MUGEN or RPG Maker projects you must play/check out.
