This looks amazing! Did you do the animation too?

Also, on the topic of feedback – I’m not very familiar with fighting mechanics, but I know there are a lot of modules for them. I do know quite a bit about UI though!

One of my main recommendations would be to space buttons out a bit and add a UIStroke (border) to them for some polish. You could also add a loading screen when people are being teleported too.

But overall I see that it has great potential, and congrats on getting it done in a week and a half!

Thanks man! The UI in the ‘lobby’ part is W.I.P. The GUI in the combat part, is done ( not because i think its finished, but because ive no clue how to make it look better) We are currently looking for a GUi designer to help us ( or hire someone if we need to )!

That looks awesome bro! Keep up the work, you don’t get to see many 2d games on Roblox so I love to see people like you diving into the genre.

I think so too, thats why i made it. Might be my magnum Opus. We only need an animator, GUi designer and maybe like a builder for the lobby and i dont have many arena ideas so

What kind of style are you hoping for for the lobby?

Thats a good question. Only idea i had was this like, a japaneese temple arena kinda thing? Scenic, with players on the arena, with the shop, skin customization ( as shown in the vid ), being able to invite others to fights, and queue for a random opponent. Sadly, ima modeller, not a builder

What about build style (Low-poly, stylized, realistic)?

Well, even tho im not the most realistic at for example, modelling the clothes, thats why they look… mid. However the game is going for a realistic style. Not gritty tho, just realistic with some vibrant colors. Realistic, yet pretty. Thats what id call it

So a semi realistic build?

Yea, something like that. I love the aesthetic of old Roblox as you can see by the arena, we do have some original ones tho, that i made. For example, my favorite one: “Winter’s Rest”

What do you think about it?

I see. I wish you the best of luck. I want to help but a can’t since I’m not good at realistic or semi realistic. :sweat_smile:

Well, what style are you good at?

Low-poly/stylized.
WordsForLimit.

On one hand, in my 7 years of making games ( and 2 of making roblox games ) i learned that artistic consistency is very important, id o like the idea of different styles of arenas or the lobby. If you ever feel like you have an idea of a cool arena, dm me on dc: 2tonk2

will do, thanks. Also, I just got an idea. Mabe a multi layered area or an arena with like pillars or something to give players like a height advantage. Could be hard to balance and make sure players don’t try to camp it.
