I used to talk about how impossible it is to get a publisher/funding for an indie fighting game, mostly because they don't know how to sell it to a very finnicky audience.
Now, between the current state of game dev financing in general and big profile fighting games having bad times....

Identified garbage collection as causing occasional >300ms lag spikes, which would be enough to cause desyncs. Trying out some solutions now!

Just...
It's a niche!! Fighting is a niche that had a mainstream revival like 5 years ago between games, events, etc.
We were eating well. Too well. Games got greedier, events too.
This took too long, and I have my doubts for Marvel Tokon and Invincible VS too. FGC ain't the same.

Riot spent a decade developing a fighting game then laid off around 80 developers less than one month after release:

Sarven is so bloody cool in Gamma Surge. What do you mean "this character cannot turn around without a super so his moveset and inputs are designed to be independent on where he is on screen"? That's a fantastic idea and I wish I could play him (I was the scrub Zoe player in this clip, sorry)

Each frame of character animation in Mega Knockdown actually contains (at least) two hand drawn sprites, layered on top of each other. One sprite has lineart with shading, and it is placed on top of a flats layer that gets mapped to the character's color palette by a color swap shader. #gamedev
