Pixel Fighters

Pixel Fighter would be a one-on-one fighting game that takes inspiration from modern-day 8-bit games like Shovel Knight in that it would be designed with a well-defined NES art style. It takes inspiration from the Street Fighter NES fan game in that it would have Super Mario Bros.-like graphics, but it would have very refined, tight gameplay and combos. The 8-bit limitations would only been a design feature. As an example, you can look at the 8-bit sprites in Fir Emblem: Awakening.

Story
The game's main protagonist would be a young man named Katsuo Akiyama, whose father, Takeshi, was considered the world's greatest martial artist until 20 years before the events of the game. Takeshi, after winning all the world's major fighting tournaments, began accepting challengers in hopes of helping fellow fighters learn and become more experienced, and his challenge matched gained a following from the public just as he had. He did this for a few years, but then a mysterious, unnamed figure came along to challenge him; he didn't look like much of a threat, and Takeshi underestimated him. He managed to fell Takeshi within seconds, to the shock of the entire world.

The press and public direly wanted to learn more about this stranger, but he disappeared without a trace after his legendary victory, and had not been seen since. Katsuo was fascinated by the story of this stranger ever since he'd heard it, and his life goal became to find this stranger and become skilled enough to defeat him.
