Lemmingball Z

Lemmingball Z is a fighting game for linux and windows, loosely based on `Dragonball Z` the hit anime. And when we say loosely based, we mean with a big twist. Instead off the normal characters from the anime, this game features cute LEMMINGS fighting DBZ style!

Main features

  • Destructible 3d terrain
  • Ability to add your own levels/characters/moves to the game
  • Multiplayer with 2-4 players online or local
  • Good old-fashioned Hot-seat play
  • Slow-motion, like in “The Matrix”
  • Fancy graphics, like cell-shading and stuff
  • Netplay, without configuring or hamachi
  • Stupid AI to practice with
  • Blood! lots of it! ?

History

LBZ was created somewhere at the end of 1999 and the start of 2000. It was my first try at making a game, up till then i only coded small utility’s/effects. LBZ was first written in Quick BASIC, for DOS and it had 800×600 resolution and sprites, and very basic gameplay. When the game became to big for basic, i ported it to PASCAL and then almost immediately to C++ (using OpenGL for graphics). After this LBZ quickly evolved, it got features like destructible terrain and slow-motion.

The future

LBZ is a bit of a “pet project”…. it will constantly evolve. I don’t plan on stopping with this, since it’s a lot of fun working on LBZ! Things i would like to create for LBZ in the future include:

  • Interactive levels, with scripts, triggered events
  • 100% mod-ability! Be able to mod any aspect of the game. 60% done.
  • Ports to most major game consoles

    1. Hi… what do you mean by laggy?

      LAGG seems to mean a lot of things these days… Are you talking about hickups? i am working on an update to add some extra smoothness.

    1. You can do it at local multiplayer,where it says player 1 set it to AI and set another Ai
      But the problem is that Ai is not working correctly,its no agresive and it will not attack unless is attacked so with 2 Ai none of them will start the attack and both will stay there doing nothing

  5. Whenever i try to start the game, theres just a circle near my mouse and nothing happens. In task manager it opens and closes rapidly.

      1. Thank you for your support, but I tried to uninstall it and reinstall it using the bat file, but I still can’t play it, got any ideas ?
