What happens if you combine a Mugen interpreter with an Osu interpreter? Find out in Project O, my submission for Subverjam.

Important note: The web version will appear to freeze for 10 seconds when loading music, due to timing issues with asynchronous music loading. This happens when starting a fight and exiting a fight/exiting to the title screen, so don't worry when it happens, it's still working.  Also, the Dreamcast version's tutorial mode seems to crash on start every once in a while, due to some CD filesystem shenanigans I'm still trying to figure out. 

Unimportant note: This game is based on Dolmexica Infinite, which in turn is a Mugen interpreter for Windows/Web/Dreamcast. It's not exactly a mod though, as it has an Osu interpreter jammed in there too.

Songs in the game (links go to the Osu beatmaps used):

Adding songs:

  1. Unzip the .osz file and extract the music and .osu beatmap file you want to use. 
  2. Convert the music to .ogg format and adapt the AudioFilename entry in the .osu file.
  3. Select a  mugen stage you want to use for the song.
  4. In the stage's .def file, set bgmusic to the .osu file you extracted above.
  5. Add the stage to the select.def as you would add a normal mugen stage

Tip: You can use the existing stages/osu beatmaps as references.

Additional notes:

  • KFM character and stage made by Elecbyte: http://www.elecbyte.com/mugendocs-11b1/mugen.html
  • Osu! format and sprites made by ppy: https://osu.ppy.sh
  • Character sources: King, Mai
  • Stage sources: Italy, King of Fighters 98 stages pack by RYO 2005
  • Japanese temple and beach background images were nabbed from some wallpaper site and google image search can't find the originals. If you know where they're from, please let me know~
  • This is an in-development Mugen interpreter for Dreamcast, so all glitches, false behaviours and other uncanny stuff happening with the characters/stages are not the original creators' fault, but rather reflect this developmental status.
  • Same goes for the Osu stuff, if things seem weird, please assume it's the interpreter not the beatmap.
  • The Dreamcast version does currently not support 50Hz mode, so please make sure your TV can display 60Hz (or use a VGA cable).
  • Source code is on githubhttp://github.com/CaptainDreamcast/DolmexicaInfinite/  (branch fork/ProjectO)

Thanks for playing!

Install instructions

Windows:

Extract the folder and open ProjectO.exe.

Dreamcast:

Burn the .cdi file to a CD-R using Padus Discjuggler 6.0 (https://www.afterdawn.com/software/cd_dvd/burning/padus_disc_juggler.cfm).  CD-RWs will not work. Burn at slow speeds, if possible. Put the CD-R in your Dreamcast. If it shows -Project O executable- during the Sega logo screen, you did everything correctly.
