Grafighters - fighting game for sketchbook characters (@grafighters)

WHAT: GraFighters is a fighting game for all of those characters stuffed in your sketchbooks and on the sides of your class notes.

If you have a pencil and an imagination we’ve got an arsenal of characters waiting to be challenged. The team behind graFighters is a small crew from Syracuse, NY. We started building the game, because just like you we love to draw, but have never been able to take our characters beyond our sketchbooks. Our main goal for this version of the game is to get users familiar with the character uploading process (which allows your drawing to be animated) and Cornelius, an algorithm that analyses your characters and determines their strengths, weaknesses, and fighting styles based on how they’ve been drawn.

WHO: Dave and Eric.
