I like the arena idea. And welcome back to doing overviews :D
Looks fun :)
Love the arena idea, maybe something to make the sides more dangerous?
Funny, I just rewatched the previous vid not that long ago... Great to see you're back!
Enough awesomeness, im buying it.
So can we make our own arenas for the gladiator fights?
Awesome as alwways :)
Id like to play on the arena side by side with a friend via LAN or Internet. That would be fun.
Looks great! Can't wait for the finished game to come out.
Random idea. Give the option of playing the mode mentioned in a Virtua Fighter type of environment aka you get knocked out or get ringed out. It would be interesting if the AI was done right. It would also be a whole lot of fun if playing with another person.
