Back in November of 2019, a group publicly revealed that they were crafting a Fire Emblem: Three Houses demake (in GBA form) and wanted everyone to know about it. That call to arms paid off, as the original team ended up getting a lot ...

Mother 4 is no longer Mother 4. The project has adopted a new name – it's going by Oddity now – and it has severed its fan-game ties. While it might not be an on-brand sequel to Mother 3 as previously planned, Oddity is still a ...

The conclusion to Gordon Freeman's story can finally be told. No, not that one against the Combine. The one where he fights the Nihilanth. Yes, you already played that 20 years ago. Just listen for a moment, okay? Black Mesa, the fan-made a...

Jesus Lopez has something special on their hands: a fan game based on The Super Mario Bros. Super Show. You know, that old cartoon starring Lou Albano that ran during Saturday mornings in 1989 that had both an official rap and the...

"A publisher has to protect its property, which is why Nintendo sues/litigates fan game makers." It's a phrase you see often, especially in defense of Nintendo, but it's not quite true in all cases, is it? Why didn't Capcom lose the ri...

It wasn't long ago that I was researching how many videogames Winona Rider Ryder has been in. The number was surprisingly low. From the looks of it, the same is true for her ex-boyfriend Keanu Reeves. Other than a few games based on&n...

One of the greatest things about Destructoid is its sense of community. I've made life-long friends here and meet folks who share the same passion as myself nearly every single day. Bartek Kubica, who resides in Poland, is one of those peop...

If you haven't heard of Mega Man Maker yet and lamented the loss of the actual official Mega Man Universe (man could you imagine if this came out? People would probably still be playing it), you should probably download it ri...

[Update: Get it while you can! RadiusGordello plans to take down their Unreal P.T. project next week as school starts back up and they shift their attention elsewhere. "This has blown up far more than I expected, but now that it's finished,...

[Update: The Giga Mission crew states that Capcom has taken the trailer down for unknown reasons. We've asked Capcom for comment on the situation and will report back if we hear more.] YouTube user Ácido Cinza managed to kick of...

Valve is never making another Half-Life game. Okay? We've all come to terms with that, right? So, here's the next best thing. In honor of Half-Life's 20th anniversary, Black Mesa developer Crowbar Collective has released the...

One of my favorite games of the past decade is a wonderful little collection called NES Remix. From indiezero and Nintendo, this trio of games took classic NES titles and reimagined how people played them. It was a great success, but after ...

With how popular "battle royale" has become, it was only a matter of time that some modders would create a version of the game mode for id Software's legendary Doom. Thanks to Retrodex Gaming, we now can experience what an old-school take o...

Approximately two weeks ago the massive sprite-based crossover fangame Card Sagas Wars spontaneously re-emerged with a public release. As of July 1, CSW has released and received two content updates. Developers Ahruon and Orkimedes reiterat...

Fan projects can really get me going, especially for retro franchises that don't get a lot of modern releases. Despite the fact that Sonic Mania was pretty rad that goes double for Sonic Maker, and upcoming fan game from the Sonic Make...

Work on the fan game Mega Man Battle Network Chrono X has steadily progressed over the years, and the team is now hosting their fifth demo iteration on March 18. It doesn't just sport a ton of new content -- the big addition is online multi...

The Mega Man fan game scene has produced some wonderful work. From old school 8-bit inspired first-person shooters to original Mega Man titles that give the originals a run for their money, or in one special case, a project that was convert...

Kid Icarus is an IP that doesn't get a whole lot of love from Nintendo. Since the first game released for the NES in 1986, only two subsequent games have been released, the last of which was a 2012 3DS title, Kid Icarus: Uprising.  Whi...

Fan fiction. These two words, hair-raising to the average individual, nonetheless apply to a variety of things that do appeal to a large audience. Between the oddity of the Frasierverse, to these confusing Minecraft books for kids, to the r...

Years back Capcom was set to release a Mega Man level creator project that pre-dated Nintendo's Mario Maker called Mega Man Universe. Given the massive history Capcom could have drawn from (think of say, Battle Network assets...

My first real web project (that wasn't a DBZ fansite I coded with rudimentary HTML) was a Mega Man hub I started with a good friend of mine as kids. I provided most of the content (guides, news) with some coding support and he did the ...

Unfortunately, the customer isn't always right when it comes to video games. Projects get cancelled, games only see a release in certain regions, and obviously brilliant ideas never come to fruition. Luckily for the rest of us, some fa...

One of the joys of games such as Sega's Sonic Mania landing on PC is the sneaky allowance for fun, community-based mods to appear. This amusing endeavor, "Knuckles Mania", by EX Falchion, brings one of the blue blur's supah-edgy friends to ...

Zombies Ate My Neighbors (or "Zombies" as it was retitled here) is one of my top five SNES games. Despite a few odd flaws, I loved it then and now. I get a kick out of its theme, great soundtrack, fun sprites and frantic co-op gameplay. Pub...
