Gallery mode, self ringout and quality-of-life improvements


Thanks to the amazing people who joined the Schwarzerblitz Discord server (https://discord.gg/vXKrvpV!), I managed to fix a couple small things and improve the quality of the game!
First of all, a feature requested by many of you: SELF RINGOUT, like in the good old Soul Calibur games!

On top of that, there are a couple interesting improvements:

  • joypads are now reconnected automatically without having to restart the game in case of loss of signal;

  • joypad remapping has been finally perfected, removing some old bugs I couldn’t find before;

  • the training dummy has the additional option to “Guard after 1st hit”;

  • the training dummy can now perform a recovery Ukemi;

  • now, there is a GALLERY MODE, with all the unlocked pictures!

Well, so much for an update! If you want to put your hands on this version, come and say hi in the Discord server!
I will post a new executable on GameJolt when I will complete all arcade ending arts!

Seven years after the first alpha, Schwarzerblitz v1.6 is out with a HUGE update!

Aaaand here's the final version, straight from the early '00s!

Renzo had a chronic lack of Mid strikes, so I decided to try my luck at giving him at least one with some approach and counter hit combo potential (not sure how good of an idea it is, will keep testing)

On June 1, 2024. The Red Riding Wolf will howl.

Schwarzerblitz version v1.6 is coming soon, with a new playable character, new arcade endings and a lot of system changes.

The black lightning will strike again.

To celebrate its 5th anniversary, I've written an article about the very first, janky, SCHWB alpha from 2017! Thank you to all of you who followed the game since its inception despite the jank!

SCHWB v1.6 update is (slightly) delayed to middle of June, due to a couple other indie fighting games coming out at the end of May (thus avoiding a pile-up with them). Fanart submissions for the final release are still open!

I got suddenly nostalgic for old game magazines (please, forgive my typo, it was pride yourself on, not of, darnit)

After a lot of delay (for which I apologize from the bottom of my heart), the 8-Colors Star Guardians+ free DLC costumes are now available for download! This DLC package contains the two previously released DLC packs for the Steam version!

Due to some issues with setting financial information on GameJolt, I am currently not able to offer the latest DLC through this platform.

"Tales from the Epilogue" is currently available on itch and Steam, but compatible with the GJ version of the game.
