Key takeaways

Describe a fighting game in plain words and get a playable 2D version in minutes.
Makermint handles character art and movesets, so you never draw or animate them yourself.
It is a single-player, 2D take on the genre, not an online ranked multiplayer ladder.

Fighting games are a test of player skill. Two characters face off, each with a moveset of punches, kicks, special moves, and combos. From Street Fighter to Mortal Kombat to mobile brawlers, the genre has been a competitive gaming pillar for decades.

A Makermint version of this genre is a 2D browser game built from your description. Ask for a classic 2D fighter, a brawler, or a tournament format, and Makermint puts together the characters, movesets, and combat mechanics for you. Makermint makes a single-player, 2D take on the genre, played against the computer or a friend on the same keyboard, not an online ranked ladder.

How it works

  1. Describe your game

    Tell Makermint what kind of fighting game you want. A classic 2D fighter? A brawler with platforming elements? A martial arts tournament? Type it in plain English.

  2. Makermint builds it

    Makermint generates a playable game from your description: character art, movesets, combo systems, health bars, and special moves. The art is handled for you.

  3. Play and iterate

    Try the game as soon as it is ready. Ask for changes in plain language, like "add a fireball special move" or "add a super meter", and play the next version right away.

  4. Publish and share

    When you are happy with it, publish your game to get a share link, or post it to the Makermint community where others can play and remix it.
