[PC] Doujin Game Master List

If you're planning to talk about doujin games at all, Kenta Cho's works are an absolute must. Fantastic games, all free, all fun. Torus Trooper comes especially recommended (though rRootage remains my personal favorite).


Another must play are the Tifa Tan X games.

X1 is a one joke parody of the classic Arcade/NES game Kung Fu, where you control a Tifa sprite and need to fight off attacking molesters as they try to grab on to her and pull of her clothing.

You can do simple combos and a few supplex moves, but overal the controls are just as clunky as in the original arcade title. The game gets extremely difficult quickly too, but still good fun.


X2 is similar to the first game, but is now more of a fully formed game.
Graphics and controls are improved greatly, you have a large amount of combos and special moves to perform and there's a multitude of different difficulties and play modes to add replay value.

Boss fights are especially humorous, as you get cameos from other games such as King of Fighters' Mai and Athena, Lilith from Darkstalkers and Red Mage from Final Fantasy.

X2 is obviously the better game here (in fact it's an extremely great game), but X1 is recommended playing to better appreciate the "joke" and what improvements 2 has. X1 is a lot more difficult, which is probably why I enjoyed 2 even more. Then there's of course the more difficult game modes in 2 if you feel it's too easy.

Highly recommended, but being h-doujin games, there's quite a bit of nudity in there, in case you're offended by something like that.
Mostly in the cutscene CGs after each defeated boss and in the game over screen.

How ya doing, buddy?

Well, if I remember correctly it didn't require an installer, so I'll just rar up mine. If you like X, you'll love X2 as much as I do ='D

EDIT:
And here's the rapidshare:

I know for a fact that both Tifa Tan X games support gamepads since I always play them with my shitty Logitech.
So does Cave Story.



Come to think of it, has Cave Story even been mentioned? Good god man, everyone must play!

Cave Story, or Doukutsu Monogatari, is a wonderful platform shooter from Studio Pixel, a one-man developer who designed, coded and scored the whole game. It quickly became a deserved cult classic on the net, and eventually was fan-translated into english by AGTP.

A relatively simple action game with heaps of charm on the face of it, the game hides surprising amounts of depth, with wonderful character designs, multiple ingenius weapons with a solid power up system, a great and touching storyline, three different endings, secrets galore and a healthy dose of actual challenge. The game is really tough, especially if you want the best ending. Tough, but always fun, always utterly endearing.

Absolutely crucial to any game fan and an amazing experience.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I hope you realize all Touhou shooters are based on original characters and by your definition of the term, shouldn't be listed. Doujin basically refers to fan-made, a japanese indie game. Doujinshi is a doujin manga on the other hand (and it doesn't need to be based on a previous work either, the difference is whether it has an "official" publisher or not).

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

See, this is what I hated about MUGEN the last time I tried it.
Like every other "community" development project, everything is infuriatingly scattered and hidden, making it almost impossible to have a consistent character roster.

You install the game and you have a massive ONE character in the selection, so you set out to find some kind of wonderful massive character pack that'll have everything you need, but of course that doesn't exist.

Searching for characters separately is a god damn joke, you'll end up with SCRAPS. You find one SFA3 character here, another one from a different site that's been done by a different person and thus looks and behaves completely different from the other character. All the good collections have either been taken down or are on locked sites, protected by an angry and secluded creator with a bad temper.
Sure, there's "communities", but they're certainly not going to help you acquire character collections because holy shit that's illegal, you should create your own!

Then you have the game projects, completed works I doubt I'll be able to move characters from and magically make compatible with EVE without massive fiddling with something I won't understand anyway. Not to mention all the interesting projects are ALWAYS either on chinese or spanish sites/forums and you'll always eventually run into an expired link.

Argh, where the hell are all the massive torrents with every conceivable character? I remember having some kind of character pack on my HD or something, but I deleted it in frustration since I never got it to work.


As for full screening, I just alt+Enter, though I kinda wish the resolution wasn't so ridiculously small.

I was speaking idiomatically.

That's just it, I googled those exact keywords earlier and got sites that enthusiastically talk about "loading characters into mugen" or "in mugen you can have an assortment of characters from different fighting games".

The sites that seemed to claim to have characters were just advert lists for OTHER sites claiming the same thing, and the few sites that actually had, for instance, SFA characters, only have a handful of them, which is of course useless to me, as I'm not about to download Ryu from one site and Sakura from another since they'll handle completely differently.

I'll check out this character torrent, looks promising. It's exactly what I'm looking for (if it actually works).

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
