Weapons Combat LEague from Dualmask
When the secrets of the military combat suit known as WEAPON are exposed to the public, before long they flood the streets and it seems every civilian is using a power suit for crime, chaos or their own selfish ends. To avert the possibility of civil war, General Patricia James, amid dissent from both superiors and subordinates, sponsors a tournament to encourage the "WEAPON-wielders" to compete for fame and fortune, and to inspire the populace. But just as the world begins to embrace the WEAPON as the wave of the future, a dark secret about the origin of the technology emerges, threatening to destroy everything Patricia sought to build. WEAPON Combat League; an action-packed tale in a world of fantastic technology, with stories of action and conflict, of drama and heartbreak, of love and loss, of rivalry, of haves against have-nots, of the balance of power, of the ripple effects of past sins thought buried. Weapons Combat League Book1 https://www.am*zon.com/dp/B005LIMMWK Book2 https://www.am*zon.com/dp/B00HRZCGO4 This project is a prototype ‘battle’ game based on my WEAPON Combat League concept, initially planned as a multimedia project with comics and prose novels. (If you are interested in reading the stories of WEAPON Combat League, you can find links to them here: https://jonathanpriceart.net/products/ ) I do not consider it a ‘fighting’ game because it’s not strictly about martial arts or weapon-based duels (despite the name). This project was meant to mimic the versus modes in classic games such as X-Kaliber 2097, Guardian Heroes and Streets of Rage 2; allowing the core game’s playable characters to duke it out in a versus mode for fun. It’s not a game designed to be in the same genre as a Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat, as that was never my intent. The original design philosophy of the project is "King of Fighters meets Mega Man". More on the Mega Man side. Characters control in platformer style, rather than fighting game style. Some characters have melee attacks, others use projectiles. It has two functioning modes: Team Versus and Team Edit Versus. Both function similarly, but the difference is one focuses on the story’s default team lineups while the other lets players choose their own team members. There is also a database of information about the game and the characters within. However, the versus mode got the lion’s share of my development efforts as I became obsessed with making all the characters ‘feel’ the way I envisioned them. Time passed and I realized that the project’s large number of characters and underdeveloped single player concept made it far too ambitious for me to complete. I realized that I was never going to finish the game under the circumstances, and thus halted development. I’m uploading it here as-is for no required charge, to allow anyone who’s interested to play what I made. Some important notes: There are likely to be glitches as I haven’t balanced or bug-tested all that thoroughly. Much of the art assets are placeholders (such as the arena background and HUD). The game can ONLY be played in two player versus mode. There is no AI single player mode at all. The first player can control with either keyboard or gamepad. Player 2 can only use a second gamepad. However, if one player just wants to mess around, Player 2’s team or characters can be chosen and selected with the Numpad on the keyboard. Inputs can’t be changed, but the controls should be simple enough to understand. The middle segments on the Team Edit screen were for planned characters that were never finished. There is no way to unlock them. Same characters cannot be chosen by either the same player or the opponent. I intend to resurrect WEAPON Combat League with a different approach in the future as I learn new tools for game development. However, this project as it stands is at an end. That said, feedback is fine and welcome, as I'm always eager to learn how to improve my craft. Thanks! url https://dualmask.itch.io/weapon-combat-league-demo

The Slippery Slope
The problem is the question, what do you want the USA to be tomorrow? Rubio doesn't want what Amhayes want. Dee Miller doesn't want what amhayes or Rubio want. Richard doesn't want what Rubio, Amhayes or Dee Miller want. A multiracial blend, the racism based on future of the usa, not phenotype. But when a multiracial gathering of people live under one government, the collision of wants is a natural problem. Cause someone has to not get their way, they have to lose. But more than that, they have to lose with a smile. That is the nonviolent mantra or wish that government agents or various advocates in the usa utter all the time. And why does it fail, because what people , all humans, forget at times is people can be very happy in negative scenarios for other humans. The simple truth is the souhern states in the usa were never as fiscally wealthy or militaristically potent than pre war between the states. And every year after is a reminder of the south that was lost. Am I happy said south was lost? yes 100% but that doesn't mean a white person of said south , living today is. People don't hate change in itself, they hate change when they lose with the change. And the usa has a history of people losing moe with change than they could possibly gain, and this energy is getting stronge rby the day but has been growing since the 1960s.

“Barack Obama Didn’t Do a Darn Thing for Black People”
@ProfD I wish you would had continued reading, I didn't ask you what they should had did, I asked you your opinion of their. Please continue reading my prose. Having opinions about the past isn't trying to rewrite the past. Or maybe you don't have any opinion on anything in the past, which is fine. I know many black people like that, it isn't negative. I am not like that. I have an opinion on everything in the past. And why does said opinion matter, cause many black people in the usa are part of a tribe who don't feel any debt is owed,in any form, to black people from whites or the usa. This post started with Obama and perceptions to him. But for me, the issue is how black people see our populace. The problem is, too many black people in the usa don't have the ability to embrace the internal racial multivides in the black populace in the usa and make their goals with their own tribe

“Barack Obama Didn’t Do a Darn Thing for Black People”
@ProfD So what you are saying is that of the two black initial tribes before the usa was founded: enslaved/free, the free which was less than ten percent of the black populace needed a way, to dismantle white power. question how were the over 90% of blacks who were enslaved going to help or be communicated with, you comprehend they were enslaved to whites yes? And, you are also saying that of the three black initial tribes during the usa's birth: enslaved/free anti usa/free pro usa, again , enslaved was still 90% of the black populace, the two free that were free needed to figure out a way to dismantle white power, but the free pro usa blacks bought into it, so you are saying they were fools? And the free anti usa lost in a war, they fought and lost, war isn't a game, somebody has to lose. But it seems you feel the free anti usa were wrong for opposing the usa while the free pro usa were wrong for joining the usa. I think you will forgive enslaved blacks for being enslaved. am I correct? @Troy What explicitly is the problem, the various tribes in the black populace in the usa with all their varying viewpoints or opinions or goals have not chosen to address? The point I have been making continually is Obama could had did one thing for all black tribes in the usa , which is a straight forward public acknowledgement. I didn't say anything nonverbal: money/supplies/resources/connections these are nonverbal things. Obama didn't do nonverbal things for the black populace in the illinois county he was elected in, it is silly in my mind to think he will do more for a larger black populace in the usa. But, Obama for the black populace in his illinois district or illinois as a senator or the usa as a president could had simply publicly stated black tribes exists and are not compatible, are not unitable, are not unionable. A nonverbal action that doesn't help any black tribe in the usa outside of getting a high profile black person in the usa to admit something that is clearly historical fact but no black leader at any time or clout: mlk jr/malcolm/frederick douglass/marcus garvey/obama/sharpton/fannie lou hamer/shirley chisholm has ever publicly said loudly.

“Barack Obama Didn’t Do a Darn Thing for Black People”
@Troy I explained poorly then. Not for the first time in this community. More experience for me to explain my thoughts better. All I can say now is while any other can derive my meaning to suggest all success is verbal through my own explanation of my meaning to verbal + nonverbal success , to me, to me, to me, verbal success is clearly dissimilar from nonverbal success. @ProfD well...outside the usa i concur to you 100%. I think in brazil/nigeria/india/jamaica/germany/philipines the tribes in the black populaces can work better together, can overcome frictions or dislikes. But the black tribes in the usa are a unique set for me. Black christian chruches made their bed, did many things to hurt other tribes. Black christian churches harmed the black militants like the panthers/opposed to firmly black nationalists like the garveyites or exodusters/betrayed in public the urban black populaces in the big cities. I think many tribes in the black populace in the usa have reason to have large dislikes between them.

“Barack Obama Didn’t Do a Darn Thing for Black People”
@Troy yes, First what is verbal success, and then nonverbal success, in this multilog. Nonverbal successes are things spoken plus used to regale to a position but absent nonverbal value which have three forms: Laws/speeches/statistics [posters/advertisements/online messages fit one of those three] The 13th amendment didn't prevent hundreds of thousands of black people to be burned by whites/hanged by whites/imprisoned on plantations on whims The civil rights act didn't build up black schools in black towns. All the statistics about Black crime don't aid black illegal operators in paying off law enforcement just like whites. Doesn't aid in black illeglal operators making generational wealth for their clans like white criminals. White asian illegal operators made chinatown and in my opinion have far more heinous acts against asians in modernity than any black illegal operator has to blacks, at least in nyc. Composite Nation from Frederick Douglass or I have a dream from MLK jr didn't bridge white or black people in various work places or in the legal system or the illegal system for that matter. Yes, people are regaled by laws, statistics, speeches, but their value is only verbal. Easy modern examples: the affordable care act[law], black on black crime in nyc[statistic], speeches[anything from obama/kamala harri/hakeem jeffried/sharpton or similar in the last ten years] Nonverbal success I define to be things that do not require anyone to speak, make a statistic, or a law, yet regale to a position. Harlem had the renaissance ballroom, designed by blacks, owned by blacks, used by blacks. The renaissance ballroom was left to rot by blacks. HArlem has a harlem day/harlem week with a lot of posters but the renaissance ballroom was a symbol of harlem absent a need for any of that. Black people recall Tulsa cause it is the last black community in a city bigger than a town in the usa that had a black community which didn't need like the black community in nyc/la/chicago/detroit/new orleans/boston/maryland/san francisco/oakland that need to advertise themselves as the place to be. When I see Black Elephants or Black donkeys or Beta Israelites or Nation of Islam or Black mosque or Black Christian Churches or Black colleges/universities or Black financial magicians they produce no nonverbal success. They have to say what they are doing, say they are great , say other black people are not great because absent saying it they can't show it. Nothing was ever easy for black people in the usa, but black people in the past did make nonverbal successes, so it can and will happen again. And this is unbound to the usa or even the Black populace in the usa. The problem with the various communist governmens was the same lack of nonverbal success. The problem with Mandela's south africa , no nonverbal success. The problem with the UA trying to sell its system through humanity after the victory over the soviet union, no nonverbal success.

“Barack Obama Didn’t Do a Darn Thing for Black People”
hahah @ProfD I told you Exactly, being concerned to your tribe in the village doesn't mean you have to hate the remainder of the village. A foundational black american who is ados can go to a cookout by party of andrew jackson loyalist. But I think it does mean stop speaking ill of other tribes. That doesn't help, ala WEB Dubois to Garvey. Garvey never demanded all continental [canada to argentina] african americans to go to africa or agree to, but WEB DUbois didn't have to speak ill of garvey in court. That legacy of opposing + making grand public announcements needs to die in the village en large. Opposing is not a problem, but stop the hindrance. And to piggy back on that, as I have told black elephants [ members of the party of abranham lincoln for those who may not know] , that if they showed greater nonverbal success they will get more members. Nonverbal Success matters in any group. People see nonverbal success and they are convinced far more than any speech or letter or any similar. And yet so few black tribes show nonverbal success in a grand way.
