There’s nothing I like better than a good old fashioned side-scrolling brawler, and the folks at the awesomely-named developer Double Stallion have got me all excited about their equally awesomely-named upcoming title Big Action Mega Fight! (or BAMF! for short). BAMF! is seemingly pretty straightforward–you play as a Brick, a tough dude with a handlebar moustache, who runs around beating up on all sorts of no good punks. Also there are explosive chickens everywhere, for some reason. That alone has me sold on this game.
Luckily, it’s not all just exploding chickens and moustaches, as there seems to be an array of upgradeable skills and special power-ups to use during all the fisticuff action. You can tell there’s plenty of inspiration from classic arcade brawlers in BAMF!, and it all just seems deliciously over the top. Big Action Mega Fight! is coming “soon" to the App Store, and now that this bad boy is on my radar you can expect to hear about any further news as it’s available. Plus I just like saying BAMF!
Thought that acronym stood for something else:). What other good side scroller beat em ups are worth playing besides KungFu Quest?
Combo Crew, not exactly a side scroller, but really worth playing.
Agree with B30, Combo Crew is excellent. Also check out Maximus, it's incredibly good as well. There are also decent versions of Final Fight, Double Dragon and X-men on the App Store which are classics in the genre.
Bloody Harry
Fangz
Fatal Fight
...Add to watchlist!
Thanks! Ill check em out
Looks like this had massive potential. Have any of you guys played The Simpsons Arcade? That game looks like it will play like this one, scroll to the right, beat up some dudes, move onto the next "zone".
Wow, this looks really cool.
Isn't that where Brad went to work? Good for him.
The Hollywood cliché of "it's like a romcom Die Hard, set in a post-apocalyptic bakery", the clever union of key genre elements really does house genius at time. I think it really requires restraint on the part of the developer, because there are enough tropes to drown in even when drawing from a single archetype.
Also, please cease speaking and confiscate my currency.
"cliché *aside*", perhaps obviously.
I just can wait until dead trigger 2
I hate buying blind boosters.
