Cartoon Network's Fusionfall was a web based MMO that was popular when I was younger. It was a great game that featured all of the cartoon network characters from popular shows, and it was revolutionary at the time. Unfortunately, however, the game died and was forgotten about by many. In today's video we are going to be covering why and how it died.

dated? nah

Well be happy you can still play FusionFall. Since a small albeit dedicated team of devs have been working on two seperate versions of Fusion Fall, those being Fusion Fall Legacy and Fusion Fall Retro. Also yes they did get permission from Cartoon Network themselves for the fan project.

An Update on All Fusionfall-Related Projects: To be brief, It is currently dead. As of April 16th, Cartoon Network issued a DMCA Takedown on Fusionfall Retro, Fusionfall Legacy and every Fusionfall-Related Projects. To anyone seeing this, or anyone coming back after this takedown, know this: We, the Fusionfall community, succeeded. We succeeded in bringing back a game that was thought to be dead for years, and breathing life into it once more. So do not think of this as the end of Fusionfall forever. The Game Lives on in our thoughts, hearts and memories. Thank you all, it was such an amazing Ride. Sincerely, Fusionfall Fan "Grandpa Acorn"

So short story time. When I was 6 years old back in 2009 I remember playing Fusionfall. At first I was so freaking hyped about the game, I found the concept and the story very cool, until I got stuck in a point because I had to pay, and I did not live in the United States so I stopped playing. Until one day I logged back on and I found out it was free, so I was super hyped until for some reason I eventually stopped playing. I moved to the U.S in 2012 and didn’t think about the game until 2014 when I unfortunately found out it was shut down, I was devastated but accepted the reality of it, now in 2019 at 16 and almost 17 years old I decided to look up the game again like 3 days ago only to be met with a surprise that the game was back as fans decided to bring it back, I downloaded it and haven’t stopped playing since. Thank you so much for letting me relive the happiest years of my life.

The only thing I really remember from this game was accidentally hacking into someone else's account. At one point there was a limited time event for some Ben 10 character hat for the player where all you had to do was enter your username and it would automatically log you in with the item, apparently no one tested it to make sure you couldn't just enter someone else's username and 1 typo later I was into a different account.

2012/2013 Minecraft was officially out, so it was a big hit for every indie kid-base games. So I think the success of this game made other small games disappeared... Well, not everyone have to win on gaming store.

Game was already set in motion to die when you began playing it. But haha funny joke.

[@Regrelin]

You should do Lego Universe.

[@AxelLeJeff]

I never knew much about FF, but I clicked the vid to learn more, and I did. The main thing that caught my eye, though, was your username, and I thought maybe an MMO historian with that particular username might be familiar with a series called Phantasy Star whose later half of games have invariably been MMOs, and prominently feature a race of humanoid synthetics known as Casts. I recently heard that PSO2 might be on the way out, and that's a shame, but it was never officially released outside of Japan, to my knowledge, but its predecessors still exist and have been maintained with community owned private servers.

[@CavsFanDallasFanSinceFebruary]

That's crazy. I never noticed much of the problems with the game that you mentioned. I loved Fusionfall when I played it from, I believe, 2010-2012. I don't remember why I stopped playing, and I never learned that it shut down eventually.

[@SO-jc9bp]

I genuinely want an entire video talking about the lore of fusion fall. LET'S MAKE THIS HAPPEN. 😂

You forgot to put a link to Fusionfall Retro :-P

I loved this game soooo much. Nostalgia washes over me every time i see it. I was super high level too. Ive met so many cool people on there too. Rip my favorite game.

[@robokast]

it was definitely an amazing experience! you should totally check out fusionfall retro, it’s a lot of fun

[@ShatteredGlassUnicron]

This is really informative. Do you happen to have videos like this for Clone Wars Adventures or Lego Universe?

[@alysmansfield]

FusionFall was one of my most favorite games of all time and I was devastated when it was shut down. During the outbreak of covid I did my annual check on my old games, never expecting them to be alive and there it was-FusionFall Retro 😭❤️ literally just FusionFall and I’m so happy

[@drakeday731]

I played a TON of fusion fall... I spent most of my time on Clone Wars Adventure seeing as I loved the clone wars more than anyone. I was so sad seeing that it was going to be shut down in June of my 7th or 8th grade year. It destroyed me and I knew my days with my hundreds of friends were now numbered. Me being so young I lacked ways of connecting with anyone meaningful, except one. Maverick Slasher... me and him became friends early on in the games life cycle. Being before they introduced the combat system. I remember coming home every day and rushing to my parents home computer to hop on and go to my Kamino lot to talk about our days at school. Alas the day finally came, the last day of CWA. I remember getting together with my squad and screen recording my final moments being together. Luckily my friend from earlier Maverick Slasher had a steam account. I managed to get his steam and we still chat to this day which is insane to me. A game about a decade old has produce one of the most tightly bonded friendships I’ve made online. I know there’s an emulator out there somewhere for the game but it won’t have the same charm it did from back then. SOE has managed to create one of my most fondly remembered games and make a lifelong friendship out of it.

Fusionfall retro is a thing? Ill be having a nostalgia trip if ya dont mind
