BANZAI! is a modification for the game Unreal Tournament 2004.
It aims to be a simple, fun and easy to play game while bringing back the good old fashioned ’side-scroller’ gameplay. Inspired by many different side-scrolling games of old such as Castlevania, Contra, Ninja Gaiden, and Megaman, BANZAI! is a hail back to the old glorious days of 8-bit and 16-bit gaming.
This however does not mean we are limiting the game to the "old school" looks. Our team works hard at creating something that's not only fun to play but also pleasing to the eye.
If you like sidescroller platform games, anime-ish looks (and perhaps even a few puzzle elements ;) )
Then this mod might be something to try out.

First I would like to thank all the people who appllied for the Position of Banzai Musician, they came in really quickly. And I appreciate those who were not chosen for spending the time to apply.
We now have two very talented Musicians that are willing to work on our mod with us long term
Welcome Fustrun and Tim N
There arent many places left that need to be filled, however if you are a sound effects engineer or aspiring to be one, or if you know who is and think they could be interested in a position then let them contact me on
Because if you look at that beta test video of vivi (vv-ko), she has an awsome looking energy field that should sound just as awesome, however it is mute.
^_^
I hope to hear from you.

wow, im not really a fan of anime but this mod looks pretty bad ass. i love the first person animations and the third person effects look amazing well done too.
im glad you like it. The finished Mod will not be 1st person nor 3rd person. as Banzai is a side scrolling Mod, like the olden days, only full beautiful 3D
When can we Beta test this soon to be masterpiece out.
Beta might be a little ways off still, tho we are hopfull, depending on how things go.
I cant give a date because we are all busy people, however we have all the positions filled now, apart from Sound techs and Voice actors, however thats all sketchy at best.
Haha took ages to upload it, but it's here :D
Thanks to XenoAisam's handywork ^-^
Ruki, please do not impregnate the video, we will make more by ourselves, that will be all.
ahhh~ how many times i watch that video :P
Good to see things are looking up. Good luck to the team and *bows down* to the newcomers. :P
Couldn't agree more, we owe a lot to them.
Good news, Welcome to the team Drakk lord and BuZz!
