I submitted this game in the Spring of 2019 as a final project for the class CIS 120: Programming Languages & Techniques at the University of Pennsylvania. It's designed for two players, and features a selection of stages and characters that were among my favorites in Super Smash Bros Ultimate for the Nintendo Switch.
From a design standpoint, the game aims to combine the sleek, modern landscapes of Smash Ultimate, with the charming aesthetics of 32-bit sprites as one might likely see in classic Gameboy games.
Super Smash CIS 120 became a sort of rainy-day project for me during the summer of 2019, but I haven't added to it for some time. Please feel free to make any contributions and share suggestions about playing and improving the game.
Download the code to begin playing and/or contributing to the game.
