Fan Game - Rayman Redemption
A fan-made reimagining of Ubisoft's
first game from the series (France) that originally released on Atari Jaguar, PlayStation, SEGA Saturn and PC (through MS-DOS),
Rayman Redemption is released by a Finlandian developer Ryemanni on Game Jolt in June 19th, 2020, which fixes the problems from the 1995 game (which is known for being quite difficult because of level design) while adding features like new worlds, levels, enemies, unlockables, minigames, collectables and much more. Given that the game
already has achievements, they can be straight up brought from the official list like Return to Monkey Island and Ghosts 'n Goblins Resurrection.
Father/Dad Game - Garou: Mark of the Wolves
Garou: Mark of the Wolves is a fighting game, which was developed by SNK Corporation and released for their Neo-Geo arcade/home console system in November 26th, 1999. The eighth installment of the
Fatal Fury series (from which SNK's mascot Terry Bogard comes alongside other characters in The King of Fighters), the game focuses on Rock Howard, a illegitimate son of the series' antagonist
Geese Howard, who died from his confrontation with Terry as of Real Bout Fatal Fury, with the latter taking him under his wing as a protege for ten years, participating in a new "Maximum Mayhem" fighting tournament to face it's host and his uncle,
Kain R. Heinlein.
Often declared among the best fighting games made on Neo-Geo, and compared to Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike released the same year, Garou: Mark of the Wolves is acclaimed for it's
animation/graphics, story, gameplay (especially a defense system) and soundtrack (
original/
arranged), with various characters showing up in SNK's other games such as The King of Fighters (Terry's appearance in 2003 & XI, Maximum Impact, XIV and Rock's team alongside B. Jenet & Gato in XV being examples). As of August 2022 during
it's EVO event,
a long-awaited sequel of the game (and thus Fatal Fury overall) has also been announced
after a earlier attempt with new fighters (possible action figures alongside other Fatal Fury characters?) and
additional moves for veterans, such as Terry's diagonal Rising Tackle & Kim Jae Hoon using his father's Tenshokyaku (some of the latter could work as one of the new features for it's port in Ultimate Game Collection, a la Sheng Long in Street Fighter II: The World Warrior, besides choosing between OST/AST soundtracks above).
