Reviews from

in the past


The closest any singular video game has ever come to being designated as an SCP
It's like Street Fighter/King of Fighters/Super Smash Bros, if its character roster was built out of the Akashic records and took the form of an impossible shape optical illusion

I don't know how the community is now, but back in the 2000s/early 2010s it was a bureaucratic nightmare hellscape ruled by Napoleons, the worst possible community for a game reliant on user-generated content, with so many rules, moral prohibitions, and warring factions (warehousers vs. creators) that it'd make Kafka shit his pants and die
This game is basically the video game equivalent of the King in Yellow, an impossible forbidden game that drives its players to madness, when I was a 12-year-old autistic child with strong convictions about preservation, my actions in the community made people threaten to kill me and dox me and send fake reports to the FBI over me (which is a felony btw! epic win) which definitely has NOT fucked me up for life with anxiety issues

There used to be a list of "unrequestable characters" that were prohibited from distribution due to stolen code, or stolen art, or because they just didn't like who made them, and that instantly turned every character on that list into a hot commodity all of us WAREHOUSERS just had to find

We were all assholes and deserved each other, like we had all sinned during a previous life and this community was our punishment

P.S.: a "warehouser" is defined as somebody who engages in unauthorized distribution of MUGEN content, you would become a social pariah if you shared characters without permission, even if those characters had been offline for years and would be lost permanently without reuploading, you are still catching a ban

still watching salty bet to this day

This isn't even a game but having Omega Tom hanks be the representative of MUGEN on Backloggd earns its 5 stars.

Iron Man, Mario, Goku, Garfield, Homer, TMNT, and Batman in one game? Smash eat your heart out.

Playing this was almost an event between friends around here from the early 2000s to the early 2010s


The crossover fighting game of all time. Smash Bros? Marvel vs. Capcom? BlazBlue Cross Tag? None of them have SHIT on Mugen.

Add saltybet to backloggd, cowards.

Mugen is just fortnite for fighting game players

you all went through a MUGEN phase, don't deny it

"M.U.G.E.N. sucks! It's either super boring or completely unbalanced!"

My brother in Christ you made the build.

This took up way, way, way, WAY too much of my childhood which could have been spent actually playing the fighting games that these characters I've become familiar with actually come from.

Trouble Man is my favorite MUGEN character

This shit blew my 8 year old's brain, I thought those 2010 youtube videos were a fever dream

tem uns jogo que deixa surdo e cego ao mesmo tempo, mas são divertidos

WHAT IS THAT COVER ART LMAOOOO

Just wanted to say that this is the most raw af cover art I've seen for a game on here.

does "watching saltybet" count as playing this

Always bet on the Touhou character

the greatest video game engine of all time

This is both the worst fighting game ever and the best fighting ever, at the same time

mugen means endless possibilities.
I've spent so much time with this engine over the years. And there's also Saltybet and Ikemen that came from this and, of course, tons of finished full game projects.

Rat King VS Mr Broly changed my friend's life

Rating is for SaltyBet, which has been my go-to time waster at least once a year for thee past decade.

Can be 0.5 or 5 depending in how you build it and that's magical.

FUCK M.u.g.e.n archives tho.

Sheldon Cooper, Adolf Hitler, Goku Black and Peter Griffin go to war. Fortnite is two steps away.

i renamed the exe file of this shit as "the fanfic i made in my bed 9 years ago at 4AM"


this is the weirdest most open source game ever fucking made dude

I was laughing for a good 30 minutes as the enlarged Donkey Kong sprite from DK Country beat the shit out of Phoenix Wright. Good shit

pretty much the best fighting game and one of the best video games to ever be made

I can make Donald Duck and Goku fight, what more can I say?
