This is the animated opening for my conceptual fighting computer game titled "Fantasia: Road to Ambition."

Fantasia: Road to Ambition will be a 2D fighting game featuring characters heavily based on numerous fairy tales (e.g. Snow White, Peter Pan, Alice in Wonderland, Red Riding Hood, etc.) The game will be created for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 and will be targeted towards teenage and mature audiences who have an appreciation for action-packed games.
 
The game will be set in the enormous futuristic fantasy world of Fantasia and its premise will revolve around a huge fighting tournament hosted by Prince Peter II of the Royal Family. All residents of Fantasia (including numerous fairy tale characters) are invited to participate. The winner of the tournament will proceed to take on Prince Peter II himself. If he/she defeats him, he/she will either go home with 10 billion Fantasy dollars or overthrow (or marry) the Prince.
 
The game will play as a traditional 2D fighting game with simple controls and principles (e.g. six-button control scheme). Each character will have their own personality, backstory and set of moves and special techniques to use in combat. Basic moves will require simple button combinations (e.g. directional button with punch button) while special techniques will require more complex button combination sequences. Finishing moves will require one or more EX bars to be full as well as specific button combination sequences.
 
The primary objective of the game will be to skilfully use attacks and techniques to deplete your opponent's health to zero before he/she does the same to you in order to win a round. The first player to win all rounds wins the match.

As promised, here is the opening sequence for my conceptual 2D fighting game "Fantasia: Road to Ambition." I created it using Adobe Flash CS5 for my final major project at Cleveland College of Art and Design (Green Lane Campus).

This opening sequence was heavily influenced by several opening sequences for existing fighting games including "The King of Fighters '96" and "The King of Fighters 2002: Unlimited Match."
I hope you enjoy watching this opening sequence as much as I enjoyed drawing and animating it!
