Rōnin Shōgun BETA 1.7C (Always check dev log)
A downloadable game for Windows
(Rated M for Mature, this game features violence)
This version of Ronin Shogun is in Beta and only has local versus (Player vs Player & Player vs CPU. Story mode is coming soon. I would like to add rollback netcode but I would either need an experienced dev or pay to upgrade UFE2 to Pro /Source. It currently has 6 playable characters each with their own fighting style, intro/outro animations. Currently there is 3 levels, Grand Hall, Warehouse, and Twitch Studio. I will be adding two new characters, one female one male, and a new stage in the next big update!

COOL NEW VERSION
Thank you very much!! We made a really cool update to improve the battle screen and you can find it here in the newest dev blog. Have a great day! 1.7b Update (Battle GUI) - Rōnin Shōgun BETA 1.7B Update OUT NOW by digitalbossstudio
Looking forward to more updates! This is very promising~
Thank you so much!
cool
thank you very much QueenFaith!! I appreciate you!
your game is cool :D
this means a lot to me, thank you.
This looks interesting! There's another VRoid fighting game called VRAST! that has Vroid hub implementation, allowing you to use your models from VRoid Hub and assign them movesets and such?.Will that be a possible feature in this game?
Hello! Thank you for the compliment! Yes, I know VRAST! Cool game, that game showed me I can use VRM models from VRoid Studio in Unity for a cool fighting game. I saw that a lot of people did not like that VRAST only allows you to play as your model if you add it to the VRoid Studio hub because of privacy issues. I have seen many people request the ability to use their model in Ronin Shogun and I think it is a good idea. If possible, I would like to add this feature without having players upload to the hub. I have already talked to the partnered game studio, Vector Studios, about adding this feature to the story mode first with a Shoto moveset ( Ryu and Ken from Street Fighter) and your model has to beat 6 players to get to the final boss, Upper Moon, which is currently not a playable character. Another VRoid Artist showed me an adult game from Japan that allows you to add VRM models locally to play their game so I know this function is possible.
That is great to hear! I think it would be amazing if we could use both models from the Studio and Hub for Ronin Shogun in the future! Could you tell me what other game allows you to use your on VRooid model like that? I will be keeping up with your devlog for sure!
Right now only Oyabun is on the hub and she is privated. I don't know how I feel about putting all of them up on the hub. I can say for certain, Digy will never be publicly available for anyone beside me. I will probably make variations of these characters with restrictions.
Thank you very much for the kind words. In the coming weeks I plan on designing the story mode that will have a cut scene Manga style. New level, and two characters not currently available to play, they will be the bosses. Next up is a Christmas version of Ronin Shogun. ( alt costumes, music, etc.). BIG things planned!! Also I really want the current version to be available on playstation store but I need to change some costumes and other stuff for that to happen because it will actually be sold instead of donation suggestion. Thank you for the support. Xtra-Base.
I'm looking forward to the updates and seeing how this game developes! Also, I'm sorry it appears I didn't properly get across what I meant in my previous comment! What I was refering to is using our own models that we have downloaded from VRoid Hub and Studio as fighters in Ronin Shogun.
I plan on great things! Especially for cool people just like you! Take care!
Really cool! Worked perfectly with my PS4 controller and is very juicy and responsive imho
The characters are awesome, a very good example of what can be achieved using VRoid :D
Thank you so much! I truly appreciate your kind words!! The next two characters coming soon is Upper Moon, female demon, and The Shape, my model. Thanks for playing
