Wrestling Unleashed

Hey, you ! Yeah, you ! Do you like laughing ? Yes ? Do you like wrestling ? No ? That's not bad because even if you don't like wrestling, you can like this wrestling game ! How is that possible ?

First things first. You know nothing about those big wrestling companies and those wrestlers, don't bother, i don't want to mess with those copyrigths. And also because of my unusual approach, they wouldn't let me anyway.

Unusual approach ? Yeah buddy, you heard right. What i mean is that the figthing system is "off the hook" and unrealistic for the cause. This means that you characther can get a beating, and give a beating.

The unrealism fits in that way. You can do some of the good old moves, but also some more special ones. For the realism its between reality and Ultimate muscle (if you haven't seen it, it's best that way).

Also, the funny part is that because we have no know wrestlers we bring a new set of them.

Playing it :

The playing system is kinda' based on other wrestling games. These are the different moves possible.

-Attack : You punch, kick, slap, hit with an object.

-Grabble : You do a wrestling move on your opponent.

-Block : You block your opponent

-Run/Walk : Does this need explanation ?

- Use : You can pick-up an object, tag your partner, climb, get out of the ring, and interact with stuff.

-Taunt : You taunt your adversary and the crowd. You dance, move and stuff like that to please or angry the crowd.

-Special : Combine with one of the above, you do a special move.

Depending if the opponent is standing or on the floor, you have a different set of moves. You do submission moves when the opponent is on the floor and you do a grabble move.

You have two gauges. One for the health, one for the special. When your health gauge is lower, you move more slowly and are easier to pin and submit. When the special gauge is full you can get in special mode for a limited time and do your special moves.

Charaters exemples (more coming up)

Pepe : He's not a young fellow. He's old and cranky. He is partly bald with curly gray hairs around the head and wrinkles. As an entrance, he enters sitted in a wheelchair pushed by a cutty nurse in a tight suit. He stands in the ring with his cane and use it as a weapon. He's a vicious attacker, and can get out easily of submission moves by grossing out his opponent by the sound of his arthisis crackings. When he gets in the special mode, he swallows a handfull of pills and drops the cane. He moves fast and is really psycho. His special grabble is the Nutcraker (I said he was vicious), his special submission is The Flaming Toe (he turn the opponent big toe, 'til he can take no more).

FatWomen : She's 500 pounds of furious rage. As an entrance, she roll down to the ring. She's strong, but after a few moves, she has to catch up her breath. She sits on peoples faces as submission move. As an attack she trows pizza to them. When she gets in special mode, she delivers an atomic burp. One of her special moves is that she climb the turnbuckle and splash on the poor opponnent. Another of her special moves is the Pizza Toss, she spins the opponnent over her head like if he was a pizza in the making. In one of her taunt she says "You say I'm no Women ?".

Drunk Bastard : Since he was 5, he drank like a sponge. As an entrance he walks like a drunk guy (he's drunk so...) and falls just before the ring hitting head first the ring. He moves slowly, but he can amazingly dodge easily the opponnent attacks. One of his taunt is that he raise one arm doing a "peace" sign and he's saying "Two scotch please!". When he gets in special mode, his eyes fills red and he shouts that he's not drunk. His special attack is the Breath of Fire. Because of his acool abuses, his breath his permenantly full of it and he spits with an matche in front of his mouth, creating of ball of fire. His special grabble is called Vodka. He trows the opponnent over the ring and into the crowd, then he climb the turnbuckle and jumps feet first on him.

Conclusion :

All of these combined with an unstopping gag flow could make a good game.
