For years now I've dreamed of someone making the perfect Indie Crossover fighting game. And we've gotten close, but nothing ever felt right. So today on Build the Roster I'm assembling the greatest cast of characters from Indie Games ever to imagine how great it would be if they came together to brawl.

I think we could add Reimu from Touhou Project to the roster. It's been around since 1996, it's absolutely MASSIVE in Japan and still to this date, the mainline games are made ENTIRELY by just ONE dude, it's creator, Jun'ya Ota, better known as ZUN. Touhou Project has been the inspiration to a TON of indie developers, not only in the videogame industry, but also art, anime, and specially music. But perhaps what might shock you the most is that Touhou was one of the main inspirations behind Undertale. Toby is a big Touhou fan, and his music was inspired by the way ZUN composes his music. They even hang out together from time to time. Touhou might not be that well known on the western side of the world, but it is still fairly big, with many large conventions all about it every year. Touhou fans are everywhere, we are just kinda an underground community.

I feel we could have Reimu and Marisa together like Pyra/Mythra. Reimu would be the faster one with less powerful attacks, a smaller hitbox and smaller attacks. Meanwhile Marisa would have a larger hitbox and basically just be your standard super nuke with ungodly big attacks with the drawback of charge times and slower movement speeds

I’m surprised Touhou didn’t have any representation in this hypothetical game, considering its practically the most iconic indie game series in japan, and has been part of internet culture since the early-mid 2000’s. Besides that, I’d love to see a part 2 to this elaborating on the dlc line up Edit: If I could modify the roster, I’d put Reimu in place of Crow. Then just make Crow the arcade final boss like what Indie Pogo did. Hell, if there was a story mode to this game, Crow could be the main reason all the universes in this game crossed over, like how its implied that in Playstation all stars, Polygon man brought all the characters together because he was salty that they were better playstation mascots than he was

43:50 Just a quick correction here - Shantae was never a Nintendo character. She’s always been created and owned by Wayforward, even back on the GBC. The confusion of if she’s indie or not comes with some people thinking she was a CAPCOM character... but they only PUBLISHED the first Shantae game, they had no hand in creating or funding it, hence why the game was released so late in the GBC’s lifecycle - the game was finished, but Wayforward had a hard time finding someone who would publish a GBC game with an expensive 32 megabit battery. Long story short, Shantae is 100% indie! Beyond that, this is an absolutely awesome video as usual. I really think a massive indie crossover of this caliber would be incredible to see - the characters, the movesets, the MUSIC! It makes me want to get rich just to fund it.

So happy you mention thems fighting herds and helltaker. Some of the characters I would want are Reimu from Tohou, Madotsuki from Yumme Niki, Frisk from Undertale, Dust from Dust: Dust an Elysian Tale, the knights from castle crashers, Brad Armstrong from Lisa, the Stranger from Furi, Niko from Oneshot, the Batter from Off, Iji from Iji, Raz from Psychonauts, Wayne from Hylics, or one of the countless characters from visual novels (like uminkeo) or flash games (Pico Schoo, Chainsaw the children, Friday Night Funkin' etc). Freddy Fazbear and the hooded figure from Journey would make good assists. The home screen of hypnospace and Spooky's Jumpscare Mansion would also make good stages. If I had to offer a critique though I don't think you should limit yourself to characters who are "fighters". Smash has demonstrated that they don't need to be combatants to be playable (Villager, Wii-Fit Trainer, Duck Hunt, etc). They could have exaggerated movements that do damage like Phoenix Wright. If you want to include a dating sim character, I say go for it. Also, might just be me but I would love for you to go in-depth on everything else. I loved how much passion you put into the initial MVC 4 video. Like obviously you don't need to do that for every video because it would take way too much work, but if you ever want to revisit the finer points of these hypothetical games in a part 2 I definitely wouldn't complain.

@Illford6921 I mean, being popular with a niche is kind of a thing for indie games in general. This applies to several of the characters mentioned in this video. Also, while Touhou isn't popular in the west, it is absolutely massive in Japan. Heck, even in the west, anyone who get a bit familiar with anime or japaneses fandoms is bound to hear about it due to the sheer amount of fanworks online. I've never played Touhou, but I can still recognize several of the characters. Ironically, I think the reason why people often forget it is how different the serie's identity is compared to other Indies.

@@illford6921 I've never quite understood people who claim that Touhou isn't popular... Like, what definition of "popular" are you even using when you say that? 'Cuz it can't be any of the definitions that I use... Be it through pop-cultural osmosis, exposure through musicians who do covers of video game music, being introduced via Undertale, finding fan-art or fanime episodes, etc, A LOT of people know about and love Touhou in their own way and for their own reasons... If nothing else then the idea that Touhou isn't very popular is, at the very least, a dreadfully western-central perspective: It's huge in both Japan and China. As in, it's so big that it was effectively banned from Comiket, Japan's biggest convention for doujin and indie publishers, on account of the fact that the Touhou stuff was completely displacing all other content. Which is why Reitaisai, an annual convention dedicated to Touhou only, was started back in 2004 and is still going strong. Saying that "Touhou isn't very popular" is like saying "Beserk isn't very popular" or "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure isn't very popular" or "Alice in Wonderland isn't very popular"... I don't know how many people read them these days, but I do know that we have no idea what modern pop-culture would even look like without their influence.

I realize that they are an even more niche subgenre of indie games, but their still indie games at the end of the day with a very passionate community, so it would have nice to see some representation in the form of a few stages, like the Mansion from Mad Father, or the trippy Dreamscape in Yume Nikki. They could play a similar role as the Pictochat or Endoplankton stages in Smash: incredibly niche thing that have no business having fighters, but still manages to be represented for the few passionate and in the know about it.

If I may add my idea for the Dead cells guy, what if the weapons you get get progressively better and better the longer you last. So you start out pulling dull knives and wooden mallets or something, but last long enough and you'll get an elemental infused great sword or what ever that game has late game. But when he dies he loses all of it and starts from square one. So in other words, you pop up, have a rough time at first, but become more beastly the farther you go. One mistake though, and it's time to start the grind again. If your gonna emulate rouge likes may as well go all the way.

An almost perfect list. I'd add two characters to the roster. 1. The Kid from Bastion. I know we'd be double dipping into Supergiant games but, c'mon, if anybody earned it it would be Supergiant. Plus we could have his stage have Rucks as a narrator and that alone is well worth it. 2. The protagonist of Hotline Miami. Having a hard hitting but frail aggro character would just be a blast to play as.

Heck, I myself came up with a hypothetical roster for this concept before, and made it around 80 characters and STILL had to cut corners.

I can just imagine the potential story mode. Crow looks across the Multiverse, and decides to up the anty of his villainy by taking over multiple universes at once,and to do so seeks out the mcguffin. But when he finds it, it turns out to be alive and takes his body over. From there it starts to mess with reality, causing worlds to either get linked or collide, and even bring back dead villains like The Radiance and Enchantress, continuing the chaos. From there we get multiple scenes in the story like Ori and Knight making their way out of Hallownest, Zagreus being led by Beheaded out of a dungeon, Miriam meeting Shovel Knight and commenting on how he looks familiar, Fillia getting attacked by Risky Boots and teaming up with Shantae and much more. At the end, when the being has been purged from Crow, in one last act of desperation, starts drawing the previous bosses and itself into Tartarus, and uses the energy there to create a new form with elements of the bosses, such as Radiance's wings and Pirate King's skull head.

This is a pretty great roster, although I am pretty disappointed by the lack of anything Touhou related, seeing as how its probably the biggest indie game series all of time (in Japan at least). I'd probably replace the Nidhogg guy with Reimu since he's the only character that I literally had never heard of before this video. I also think there's a bit too many fighting game and rouge-like characters here, so maybe I'd remove The Beheaded/Drifter and Arizona in favor of characters like Gunvolt or Henry Stickmin. Also, a lot of the characters that you said couldn't work like The Goose, Madeline, or Freddy have had movesets made for them by someone named Brawlfan1, so maybe they could be DLC characters?

A few additions, if I may. I understand you didn't want the video to be too long, but I just can't pass some stage ideas up. *Impressionist Fields from Rock of Ages 2:* This series has plenty of potential for stages, but I think Van Gogh's battlefield provides the best scenery. It would work kind of like Delfino Plaza in _Smash,_ with the main platform flying around the battlefield and stopping at various points. Just make sure you stay out of the way of the boulder barreling down the hill, and don't get hit by any of the obstacles. *Spooky's Jump Scare Mansion:* Occasionally, fog envelops the stage and transitions the fighters to one of the Specimen Rooms. There, they will have to run from the monster roaming said area to avoid an instant KO. To compensate, the specimens are slow. *Totally Accurate Battlefield from TABS:* This one's admittedly a bit tricky, since it's thematically similar to Rock of Ages' stage. A battle would obviously be unfolding in the background, but it would probably look even more ridiculous than Rock of Ages. The soldiers all flop around and wave their weapons like they've never used arms before, and the cavalry horses are somehow even derpier. *EDIT:* Also, I'm a bit surprised Beatrix LeBeau from _Slime Rancher_ is nowhere to be found in this video. Oh well, there's always DLC! ; )

Plus I think BrawlFan1 had a great idea of her being able to call out Badeline like a Jojo stand to deal the more damaging attacks, Smash has some Jojo-esque characters, so it would only be fitting for Indie Smash to have one of its own too. Still, I can't deny your idea for her giving out strawberries to heal people is also a fun and more wholesome way to implement her, and I'm just glad she got some recognition here at all

Monika from Doki Doki Literature Club 4. Green Knight from Castle Crashers 5. Impostor from Among Us ( As a fully playable character ) 6. Dive or Kick from Divekick. I think they’d work just fine having one really strong move. Maybe give him the ability to walk or run. 7. The Goat from Goat simulator 8. Rusty from Steamworld Dig. Some stages could include: 1. Freddy Fazbear’s pizza restaurant 2. Terraria world. Would have Corruption, Crimson and Hallow versions. With Eater of Worlds, Brain of Cthulhu and Empress of Light in the background respectively. 3. The Club room from DDLC. 4. The Skeld from Among us.

I guess this is an old video, but I just wanted to leave my ideas for some Assist Trophies from the games represented in the main roster. Listed in the order I thought of them. -Kuro (Ori): First appears in the background, and flies off-screen. Then she flies back and forth across the screen dealing heavy damage and knockback, with each strike preceded by a glowing aura showing where she’ll fly next; Basically a stronger but more telegraphed version of Latios/Latias. -Zote the Mighty (Hollow Knight): Runs back and forth across the stage. Does no damage, but colliding with any character causes both Zote and that character to trip. -Milla Basset (Freedom Planet) Follows the character who summoned her and tries to protect them with her shield. The shield can reflect most projectiles, but will break after absorbing a certain amount of melee attacks. -Forsburn (Rivals of Aether): Runs around freely and obscures sections of the stage with smoke. Players can clear the smoke by attacking it, as in his original game. When he disappears, any remaining smoke clouds burst into flame. -Balrog (Cave Story): Behaves identically to Snorlax; Jumps up and then crashes down onto the stage. -Frisk (Undertale): When they appear, a text box appears on the bottom of the screen, indicating a phone call from a random Undertale character. Functionally identical to Resetti in Brawl. There would be unique dialogue if Sans is engaged in combat, and varying depending on whether or not Sans was the one to summon Frisk.

I think there are a few glaring omissions from this list though you did exceptional Thorgi I'd just like to add my two cents. The first is Isaac of course who'd just use an assortment of Items from the binding. Besides that last sentence sounding bad, He can kinda play like megaman with having basic move be him shooting his tears, or even massively powerful bombs with limited supply like Banjo and Kazooie's wonder wing. I think you can figure the rest out with other Items. Maybe he can have a mechanic like the buildable items in smash but only when he is played, both isaac and his opponent can pick up some items and get item sets. I know I'm basically just taking your stages and taking characters from those games but I feel that the Abomination from Darkest Dungeon is perfect. He has two forms Human and Abomination. For those who haven't played the game each class has 8 moves but you can only use 4. The abomination is different he has all of these moves but he changes form mid battle so he has 3 moves and a transformation in both forms, think like pokemon trainer but with 2 mons instead of 3. Basically to change this in a smash rip off you have down special to change forms, them each form has different neutral side and up specials. Originally I thought the jester would be the best because he oozes badassery but since the Abom can change forms I thought he'd be a good fit. To be honest I have thought to much about what a 2D Darkest Dungeon fighter would be and I think thorgi could do a great Build the roster for such a thing. Lastly Jacket from Hotline Miami, I feel even the fact a stage was missing was kinda wack. Jacket would be like the drifter with a shulk minato flair, with his masks. He can change masks like Graham the rabbit for a speed boost, Don Juan (Horse) who can power up his down special, Rufus (Elephant) makes him heavier and harder to knock back, Tony the tiger buffs his grabs knockback and pummel damage, Rami (camel) makes gun attacks have longer range. His down special is like sephiroth's only with a door you can bring up and when released you kick open with knocks the opponent away, this move is buffed when you are wearing Don Juan. Also I think the roof of the russian mobs HQ would be a great place for a stage maybe every 1/10 times it likes like the last level of wrong number where the boss is on psychedelics. I could go on but three paragraphs for a youtube comment is excessive... If somehow you are reading this thorgi I would love to see hypothetical fighting game spinoff Ideas like an Overwatch, Team Fortress 2, or Darkest Dungeon fighting game or like you said in the video for a Dead by Daylight fighting game, which would rule. I think games with large casts and great personalities could be great for a fighting game concept video. Even with nine characters a TF2 fighting game would kick ass with the weapon customization changing the attacks in different ways. I need to stop my word vomit now so great video also lethal league stadium would be a great stage.

16:17 maybe the specter gimmick could be balanced by having it only manifest once the Knight fully respawns, to simulate the journey it takes you to get to said specter. Maybe have the place on the stage where the Knight got knocked out would have a dark orb where the specter would come out to telegraph where it will come from.

Gunvolt should be DLC. I mean, the moveset is easy enough, and as an Echo, Copen. Basic attacks are shooting bolts, which can be charged, but won't do much damage. They Tag (like Inklings ink attacks, but no refill) and that's where Specials come in. Specials usually only brings out Flashfield, but if a character is Tagged, they'll take escalating damage. Final Smash is a screen blasting Max Luxcalibers. Copen, however, Tags by Dashing into characters, doing damage. He's more physical, and Lola helps with long range. His dash can push characters around, too, but only Lightweights. Final smash is his Attack from his ASG2, Star Shredder (a screen clearer, like Max Luxcaliber) This works! I hope.

Assist: Tim (Braid) He rewinds time by a few seconds, moving the fighters around and reversing any changes to their damage meters. He might also reverse everyone's controls except for the one who summoned him, as if you were moving backwards in time. Assist: The Dealer (Inscryption) The demonic entity from Inscryption appears in the background, and prepares to make a Death Card. His camera flashes, and a random opponent gets turned into a card that acts as an item. You could easily throw this card off the stage, but you could also attack it until it runs out of hit points, giving you a massive power boost, as if you absorbed your opponent's soul. Assist: Ayano Aishi (Yandere Simulator) She's similar to the Lyn Assist Trophy, delivering a devastating attack that's almost always an instant KO. The catch is that she walks immensely slow. However, unlike other assists, she won't disappear until she attacks someone. A skilled player could launch her off the stage before she manages to stab them, but good freakin' luck. Also, if she attacks you from behind, you take double damage. Assist: Sakuya Izayoi (Touhou) The maid of the Scarlet Mansion stops time, then unleashes a storm of throwing knives. Pretty basic, but what matters is that she's a JoJo reference. Assist: Wobblers (Totally Accurate Battle Simulator) TABS is a parody of strategy games such as Total War, so this Assist would be similar to the Advance Wars Assist from SSBB (the best Smash game, fight me). A squad of Wobblers, or Peasants, or Halflings, whatever, show up, then spread out and attack players. There's also a random chance of spawning a Mammoth, or a Super Boxer. You know, since TABS is a parody of strategy games, and the developers of that game also made a parody of battle royale (TABG), and a parody of survival horror (TABZ), I kinda want Landfall to make a Totally Accurate Battle Smash.

For a bit of an out-there pick, I'd have to say *Kaze the Rabbit* from _Kaze and the Wild Masks,_ which came out not too long ago. I could easily see her working a lot like Mega Man in _Smash_ by using the four different Wild Masks for both her special and basic attacks (claw slashes/aerial dashing with the Tiger Mask, flying with the Eagle Mask, etc.), gliding with her helicopter ears for a strong recovery, and she could have Hogo (her red spirit companion) assist her with attacks and helping defend her with his shields.

For the people confused about this and Fraymakers... 1- No, Fraymakers was revealed waaay before this video, so Fraymakers isn't copying it. 2- It doesn't seem like the creator knew Fraymakers, since if he did, he would had pointed it out, so the inverse is also wrong. 3- The ideas of both games seem familiar, until you get into mechanics, the assists of this game (like in smash, atleast it seems so) would be items, while in Fraymakers they are really similar to Card Saga Wars (but the assists aren't randomized), which is (or so I think) the inspiration of that mechanic. 4- Fraymakers has also the difference of number of characters, being low, but it's balanced via the assists. 5- Fraymakers could be considered as an indie even, taking note that Rivals of Aether is considered one, hence it could be refferenced if this game becomes a reality. I hope this clears some doubts about both of these games.

Another great video, loved all of your ideas so I tried to come up with some of my own. Characters Dust (Dust an Elysian Tale) - His main attacks would use his swords but he would call for Fidget's help for his specials (Except up-special it would be his Dust Storm ability) and his super would combine his Dust Storm with Fidget's abilities Jacket (Hotline Miami) - A not as complicated version of the Beheaded. He would be able to pick up 3 types of weapons: Melee, Firearms and Throwing. All melee weapon would deal the same damage but would have diffrent range and speed (You would also be able to throw them to stun someone). Firearms take the longest to find and would dissapear after you run out of ammo but they have good range and damage. Throwing would be found the quickest but the only thing you can do with them is throw. And finaly for his super he would put on Tony (Tiger mask), rush forward and start doing some executions on the people he hit. Terrarian (Terraria) - He would be able to change between the 4 classes from the game (Melee, Ranged, Mage, Summoner) to change his normal attacks and specials (Except for his up-special which would always be wings) Assists The Pickpocket (Monaco) - He and his monkey would run around the stage while picking up items and then give them to you Rambro (Broforce) - Runs around the stage shooting everyone or stabing tthem if they get to close, before he dissaperes he would throw out a granade and flex Stages Antichamber (Antichamber) - Just as the game, the stage would be designed to confuse everyone with stuff that doesn't make sense. It would be based on a random room from the orignal and depending on the room it would have a absurd twist, for example there could be a room with a hole in the middle but falling into it wouldn't kill you, it would instead teleport you back on the stage and start to create a bridge that would cover the hole. Flying Airplanes (Finding Paradise [A sequel to Too the Moon for those unaware]) - A simple stage consistng of a bunch of giant flying paper airplanes Dawning of The Pants (Tiny and Big: Grandpa's Leftovers) - Based on the final battle from the game, you would be fighting on a group of floating rocks but at the same time the before mentioned battle is taking place in the backround and every now and then Tiny or Big would accidently destroy/change the arena by either cutting some of the rocks or throwing new ones in. Items Tiny's rocket (Tiny and Big: Grandpa's Leftovers) - Lets you fire a rocket that would attach to anything you aim it at and start pushing it. Buddy in a box (The Binding of Isaac) - Spawns a random fammilar from the game that would work just as they do in the game.

Like, I've known about A Hat in Time for a while now and always thought "eh, just not for me." But the way you presented it makes it look fun. That's a hell of an achievement, dude. Bravo!
