The Art Of Martial 4


 * The Art Of Martial 4 will focus entirely on YouTube martial artists and allow a mix between weapon based and unarmed martial arts. The game is proposed to be 3D.  All characters will have multiple move sets.  Must have at least one low form move set and one high form move set.

Controls
The Basic/Trick/Maniac system is a difficulty selection that affects both competitors. It controls what moves you have access to.

The basic move has the lowest risk.

The advanced move only has moderate risk.

Many special moves require multiple button presses to execute. They are often performed in stages. Pressing the button once gets the character into position, the button press subsequent(s) follows through.

Risky moves always require multiple stages and they leave your fighter the most vulnerable.

Guarding can be blocking, parrying, or evading. It is dependent on directional commands and position.

A throw is not necessarily a throw. It is always an unguardable move that can only be performed up close.

Changing your stance often changes your character's properties and allows different moves to be performed. It can also be used to draw/sheath weapons.

Production
Every individual YouTuber will have to go the nearest motion capture studio to have their move sets captured. Due to the cost of motion capture work it is advisable that multiple move sets should be captured. At least 2 but as many as 10 are a good idea to work with. When put in production it is uncertain how long it will take for just 3 YouTubers to be in the game. You also want many move sets so that every character has at least one low form move set and at least one alpha weapon to fight with.

The game will likely be available in early access form with only a few characters. The game is proposed to be a platform. As more YouTubers become available their characters can be added to the game for purchase.
