"Truth is, we are completely starting again from 0% to improve our game’s quality:

That's right folks, the whole game is getting a complete overhaul. A new build is currently underway, one with higher quality graphics to match the show, and better coding to make the game run smoother. In a way, while we are starting at 0% we are also not. The good thing is that we can take code from the original build, so anything that was good from the original build will be embedded into the new build.

Moving on. The new build will have new features integrated, so that you the player can have a good grasp of the game and enjoy it just like you did with any of the previous SSB titles.

These new features include:

1) Up to Four players multiplayer. Eeyup. You'll be able to duke it out just like you normally would in Smash Brothers. But you may be wondering how it's possible to do on a keyboard, if it is even possible.

It's not. So that's why we have....

2) Connect up to 4 USB controllers! That's right. Didn't see that coming, huh? You'll be able to connect 4 USB controllers to your computer, if you have 4 USB ports. Play the game as if it were Smash Brothers! Because it kinda is. With ponies.

(Psst. If you have a gamecube controller, I suggest picking one of these up if you haven't already: www.play-asia.com/GC_Controlle…)

3) Snapshots. Pause the game, and take a GUIless snapshot of that awkward/hilarious/pwnage moment. You'll remember it forever in high quality PNG format.

4) Widescreen/Fullscreen compatibility. Posted already, don't care. Personally, I'm a sucker for widescreen ratios. If you have a TV with a VGA input (or in other terms a TV that can act as a second monitor), then try out the fullscreen mode. It's just like playing Smash Bros. on your TV when it's fullscreen.

However, with all these new features, I'm afraid that there is some bad news, and we are deeply sorry for the inconvenience but...

1) This game will no longer be released for HTML5. The quality upgrade reduces performance on HTML5 browsers. No, it destroys performance actually.

2) Some features will be nerfed/removed for Mac release. Due to the fact that a lot of coding and files are Windows based, we cannot replicate some of these features unless if we can obtain files that can work for Mac. Not to mention neither of the developers have any regular access to a Mac to test the game. Sorry Big Mac.

Anyways, we'll be updating from time to time. We are working one character at a time, one stage at a time, one everything at a time.

Check back soon!
