The Top 8 Fan Games

[@WhatTheFnu]

I do believe this is the first 1080p, 60 fps video on the channel. It took me 3 and a half hours to render, and I could hear my hard drive crying, but the result was SO worth it!

[@SamuraiSarcasm]

+WhatTheFnu Holy shit Someone acknowledged Crusade Subscribed

[@WhatTheFnu]

***** Sure thing. It's actually a track from the game called "Radiance", which plays during the Area 4 boss. Here's a link to a clean version of the song: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mInYfHlsat6lgJY As well as an extended version, if you wanted to use it for background noise: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nYezeZdnor5qa7c

[@SandroUNDEAD]

+WhatTheFnu 2 words. Megaman Unlimited...

[@SamuraiSarcasm]

***** It's a fairly common opinion that the Genesis games are more polished and thus of higher quality than the 3D games, so it wouldn't surprise me if that's what he meant (not that there _hasn't_ been a good game since the Genesis era; just that they've been the best of the bunch until Generations).

[@SamuraiSarcasm]

***** Which isn't what he was saying. :3

[@legolorian3271]

Rip Kobe 😥

[@WhatTheFnu]

For anyone wondering about that little audio skip around 12:04, the script originally contained a word I did not realize was outdated and offensive at the time. They're very cavalier with it in the game, so I thought nothing of it until a friend pointed it out to me. I made the decision to just cut it out in KZbin's editor, because...yeah, that was a pretty big screwup on my end.

[@dannydumlet]

Sparkster the Jester isn't the only one. Freedom Planet probably one of the best indie games was originally a Sonic fan game

[@marcelroberge5011]

Idk if they were the originals for the song but that's dope with that the silhouettes reference.

[@Judangenbrangen]

I was super stoked about the Alvin Earthworm namedrop there

[@TheTripmon]

you should make another one to fallow up. like 8 more fan games

[@Wekraptor]

Hyper DBZ: Street Fighter 2 + DBZ need I say more? I will anyways. While using the mugen engine as its base every asset is completely original, making it feel like something along the lines of a Butoden 4 of sorts. Every character (Goku, SSJ Goku, Ultimate Gohan, Vegeta, Majin Vegeta, Freeza, and Babadi) Play like everything about their character embodied into their move sets; Goku being a technical fighter with a command combo and spacing tools, Vegeta being a rush-down character with moves that harshly punish wiffs, Gohan being technical like Goku, but using things like advanced flight and Masenko to add mixup options, Freeza having moves that pretty much have you toying with your opponent, moves like a counter that has you teleport behind P2, dancing elbow which has a delayed startup put quickly dashes for a sneaky hit make you really feel like you are playing as these characters. Add a kickass CSP2 soundtrack, 10+ stages, 2 bosses, amazing intros and winquotes, and you have the DBZ tourney fighter made of only the purest of fan's dreams

[@cgavs4303]

Super Mario 63 is soooooooo good it combines the side scrollers, Galaxy, 64, sunshine and more. It is great

[@zucankidev]

Very nice list. I should check out most of these games. Oh, as for a Fan game I love it's called Toadette Strikes which is a platformer made by the same person who made Psycho Waluigi. It's a really good game and I highly recommend it.

[@matteste]

Ever heard of the Touhou series? That series is full of fangames, sometimes of absolutely unbelievable quality. Koumajou Densetsu 2 being a standout case.

[@yoyo2slow882]

Love your videos! Keep up the good work!

[@sungrandstudios]

Great vid!

[@wicky7591]

Awesome video. :) (Also, I'm digging your choices of music. :D)

[@smellthel]

I would also add Mario 63, but good luck finding a 9 piece pizza

[@revstalker7334]

I know that super mario crossover didn't make the cut, but couldn't you give the link for it anyway? since it was a draw?

[@Zetta330]

SMBX, Mega man Rock force/ Chrono X, SSF2, FNAW(maybe), Paper Mario 3D world, etc. List part 2 please.

[@s-wo8781]

Now there's an official remake of Metroid 2.

[@PluckyStar]

The treasure boxes in Psycho Waluigi remind me of Moe from The Legendary Starfy. Please tell me SOMEONE remembers that incredible hidden gem of a game!

[@CanteraGames]

This is an amazing video, a loveletter to the little devs. can't believe we are watching this so late.

[@kamealex]

This video is pure love for videogames.

[@427Arbok]

I'm kinda surprised that none of the Fire Emblem fan games made it on the list. Most, at the current, are under the badge of hacks, but several have been made with a new engine, like FE 7x: Immortal Sword, and many more are preparing to be transitioned to that engine. It's not complete yet, but wow.

[@TheHaddonfieldRegistry]

Hey, great video man, definitely earned a like

[@357Sneak]

I gasped almost uncontrollably when u put #1 as #1. too glad, too strong.

[@seitzisright8726]

whats the song at 12:46 i got wicked nostalgia but i cant quite place it

[@WhatTheFnu]

That would be "Soft Light" from Super Paper Mario. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpSvcqmIp9BgaaM

[@zdoggs1370]

What about Super Smash Flash 2?

[@WhatTheFnu]

What about it?

[@zdoggs1370]

You should play it! Its a really fun game to play

[@WhatTheFnu]

I have. And I think Crusade is better.

[@zdoggs1370]

Oh well you have you opinions and I respect them. So who do you main in either?

[@WhatTheFnu]

Waluigi in Crusade for the comedy factor. But considering Shantae is due in the next major update, that will probably change soon. As for Smash Flash, I'm gonna be boring and say Sora.

[@Callumbuddy]

I have an idea for a fan game trilogy... if only I knew how to make video games.

[@WhatTheFnu]

+Callumbuddy If you're interested, I recommend to start toying around with something basic like RPG Maker or GameMaker Studio. Once you feel comfortable, move up to Unity. Extra Credits made a multi-part series on this as well, so give them a watch: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sGGZgoVjqd9kldE

[@lucasskywalification]

The after the sequel guys also made sonic before the sequel, you should check it out!

[@iamnotwelcome]

Is there actually a famous forum for presentation of fangames? It seems like in all Game Maker Forums fangames are a crime.

[@MrRoccoMarchegiano]

there's gamejolt

[@ChibiTails]

19:00 This is gonna be Sonic, isn't it

[@MstrWayn3]

Love this list... Have you played Mario Bros X?... it was mario maker only 5-10 years prior to mario maker. There are literally 100's of fan made sonic games out there that are awesome. May favourite is Sonic heroes in 16 bit where you can play 3 characters at the same time through sonic 1 and 2. Although, the Hybridization project was a very good game. It was like Sonic 2 but played with sprites from the Master System Sonic games. Again... This list is awesome and now... I have something new/old to play. Cheers mate.

[@mortonandroy]

Could I get a list of music used in this video? I can't find it in the description or the end slate.

[@WhatTheFnu]

It's been a while, but I'll try. [POTENTIAL LIST SPOILERS BELOW] Red Moon (Sonic ATS) Destruction Dance (Psycho Waluigi) Great Canyon Arena (Pokemon Type Wild) Mission 1 (Double Dragon) Space Jam (Barkley Shut Up and Jam Gaiden) Soft Light (Super Paper Mario) Final Destination (Super Smash Bros Crusade) Go Straight (Streets of Rage Remake) Title Theme (AM2R) Radiance (Sonic ATS)

[@mortonandroy]

Heck yes! You're the best!

[@aminefifty]

This list is missing a pokemon fan made game, there is a lot of great ones, my favorite is reborn you should try it.

[@hobosorcerer]

Smashflash 2, I think, should have been put instead of Crusades

[@DogOfAnnoyance]

what's the game at 2:31?

[@logansehy5677]

lol I actually downloaded the streets of rage remake yesterday and was checking this video out for more good fan games.

[@LeRuseBird]

>pokemon sage Isn't that project dead?

[@MissiGNO000]

"needed a fresh new take" Dude have you ever played spin off games like Rager, Conquest or Mistery Dungeon? :^

[@drojas2005]

Is Sonic After the Sequel a completed project?

[@WhatTheFnu]

Yes. As far as I can tell, the game is finished in its entirety.

[@Darkshreaders]

i am glad nintendo noticed though with the dmca claim not a good thing for the life for it

[@ShannonPYT]

What's the name of the very first song?

[@KurtCocaine64]

All these games are really cool, but why are almost all of them for windows? why are people only making games for windows and not mac?!

[@KaeraNeko]

Love your videos, your topics, your picks, and your voice. You definitely deserve more recognition. ... or do you have some dark secrets or bad values I should be aware of before hitting subscribe?

[@WhatTheFnu]

Well, apparently, liking Crusade more than Smash Flash 2 makes me a monster.

[@KaeraNeko]

Pizza man, it appears I'll be staying subscribed.

[@TonyDGunner]

DEFUQ, what about super smash flash 2, or better yet PROJECT M. Curisade is small compared to these two games.

[@InteriorCrocodileAlligator86]

+Gunman 1357 It's his personal opinion. Besides, Project M is more of a ROM hack, and SSF2...okay, the main opinion is up for debate, but I honestly find Crusade more interesting by comparison.

[@thestoriesofthedutchgamer9621]

I know it's not finished yet but you forgot rayman revenge of the dark

[@SuperAsdke]

Megaman Sprite Game should be on here

[@captainbananagamez7852]

I think you should have shown super smash flash its a pretty good fan made game as well tbh crusade has a better roster but super smash flash has better game play in my opinion

[@charliechappell4615]

What about Project Melee? That has the biggest fan base of any smash fan made mod. I had way for tournaments than crusade. They managed to completely rebalance the entire roster as well as being back everything people loved about competitive Melee. And then there's turbo mode...

[@Stevefrench644]

+Charlie Chappell Like you even said in your comment, it's a mod. It's not a game torn apart and rebuilt as its own, but is rather Brawl with some changes.

[@ShadowWolfRising]

Everybody get up, it's time to slam now.

[@WhatTheFnu]

+ShadowWolfRising We got a REAL jam goin' down

[@ShadowWolfRising]

+WhatTheFnu it's just you, me, and Sweet Georgia Brown.

[@cremudgenguy2132]

who is chino in ssbc

[@rudiesubs9161]

does Project M count?

[@brentramsten249]

never could beat that last fight ring match in abobo....

[@InteriorCrocodileAlligator86]

+Brent Ramsten Just evade his punches, then wail on him before he throws another one.

[@gamecubeking]

Toadette Strikes Back!

[@SkulloMad]

Personally SSF2 > Crusade

[@godli6063]

Skullomadness yep

[@damjanradovanovic4289]

what about project M?

[@damjanradovanovic4289]

+treos2 okay then, if it is a mod/romhack it maybe doesn't fit in this list but the board they made is totally okay

[@CraftOfSparta]

How bout Distorted Travesty?

[@jansolo4628]

How did Crusade get in here but Super Smash Flash 2 didn't?

[@WhatTheFnu]

Because I think it's a better game. And it's my list. Q.E.D

[@jansolo4628]

Fair enough, I keep forgetting that most lists are opinionated anyway I like both games but I like SSF2 better, but I respect your opinion

[@sandergerzema600]

It's unfortunate that you can't play these on an Apple or Android device

[@hamzahkhan4067]

this vid might be old but what the hell. sonic ats.

[@cgavs4303]

Super Mario 63 is a great fan game

[@floatingf8783]

WHY IS MEGAMAN ULTIMATE NOT ON THE LIST!?

[@PowerPandaMods]

Megaman Unlimited was not on the list. Not sure if I can take it seriously. :)

[@MissiGNO000]

"needed a fresh new take" Dude have you ever played spin off games like Rager, Conquest or Mistery Dungeon? :/

[@MissiGNO000]

Sorry dude, blame my phone

[@MissiGNO000]

Yyyess

[@Drakkona123]

+Cody Malicote Same. Samsung has some really shitty auto correct.

[@SuperMandibleclaw]

I really want to make a game but I don't have the skills :-(

[@gabe8242]

I don't understand how ssf2 did't make the top 3, yet crusade was on the list... I mean it obvious which is better if the 2. .-.

[@WhatTheFnu]

What's obvious is that you need to read this: thezenorange.com/art-subjective/ And then watch this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m364YpJjlJmKgck Now that you're done with those, it's time for a pop quiz: are video games products, or art? Can their quality be measured definitively, or is it open to interpretation? Depending on how you answer that, you'll know whether or not you'll enjoy the rest of my content. But, hey: that's just my opinion.

[@gabe8242]

***** Umm thx for the little lecture but are you saying that crusade is better than ssf2 in your opinion? I thought you just didn't give it a chance... Also it has a great community and online play. Crusade is kind of ugly (graphic and competative wise) If ya like it better thats fine.

[@dyll101]

hmm crusade but not super smash flash 2 ??

[@AlonzoTompkins]

+dyll101 Crusade is honestly the better of the two. Not saying Flash 2 is bad. But if i had to choose which i'd play, Crusade would be my choice more times than not.

[@Laventory]

of corse sth after the secqule

[@IceColdKoopa]

No Mega Man Unlimited makes me a Sad Panda

[@devonthomas303]

wtf that snoopy/Hobbs shirt is fucking sicc!

[@WhatTheFnu]

Thanks! If you want one of your own, here's where you can find it: www.teepublic.com/t-shirt/6793-deep-thought

[@KINGD353]

nice job breaking your own rules twice in one entry with the inclusion of pokemon type wild..... also i disagree with your statements in spot 1 with generations being the best sonic game since 3 and sonic after the sequel being better then everything else but eh... to each their own i guess

[@404GameAndMusicProducer]

Sonic ATS Sonic v darkness Sonic utopia work in progress Mario flashback Come at me

[@eltonbritto8188]

thankkkkkssssss for super smash bros crusade

[@itsshowtime3459]

I UNDERSTAND U LIKE BARKLEY FAN GAME... BUT TO SAY FF6 IS CLOWNSHOES,.. THAT CLOSE TO BLASPHEMY SIR.. I SHALL HAVE YOUR HEAD!!!!

[@DnekarAtkinsonVeriusz]

AM2R was taken down bummer.

[@TheAbsol7448]

Super Mario 63, anyone?

[@TwoTailedTitanGaming]

Super Smash Flash 2...?

[@godli6063]

Imo I like super smash flash 2 over crusade crusade just looks ugly and doesn't have that smash bros feel as much as flash 2 Crusade just has more quantity over quality that's why I like flash 2 better

[@elijahpolen5872]

Now I'm hungry XD

[@bruhmoment532]

am i the only one who thinks where smbx?

[@pclapp2517]

super smash flash is mechanically better and in general

[@realcirno1750]

Super Smash Flash 2 is better than Crusade.

[@sunnyblaze4912]

Dragon ball unreal

[@supernucleargaming1851]

Bro abobo is the best

[@dakoten8426]

the best actually is overtale!

[@greencray9440]

No SSF2

[@pinballforlife7948]

Generations is not the best game, SA2 is even with all of its flaws also unleashed had better day stages minus the drift which was improved on in Gen

[@DaDinkler]

Megaman x Street Fighter tho

[@chuckdastump]

sonic mania, just saying

[@jonbotonetheredshirtreview902]

sonic world

[@hana-ng4ql]

dislike for putting crusade on the list and not smash flash 2.

[@hana-ng4ql]

+Kabal From Black dragon although rayman makes me atleast say That game is ok.

[@ultraknight40000]

ever herd of pokemon ethereal gates no . . ok well its its no ordinary pokemon fangame everthing in the game exempt for the battle systom and feel of the game is original yes 150 fake-a-mon that are mostly good an amazing sound track sprite work than was the same quality as back and white and there sequels and other changes here and there to give the world and the game a better feel the only bad part is than only 20% of the game is available right now

[@westonhamilton8073]

Snorlax looks like shit haha

[@cgavs4303]

Super Mario 63 is soooooooo good it combines the side scrollers, Galaxy, 64, sunshine and more. It is great

[@smellthel]

Thats what I thought
