It’s been a few busy months for all of us at the studio, and that’s because this week we are going to Gamescom! A few from Dinomite Games are going, together with our parent company and sister studio, to show off Go Fight Fantastic! and meet players.
For Gamescom we have made a special build, a sneak peek from story mode, where you get to try out a piece from the game and meet Froggy, our chapter 1 boss!
The intro is currently shortened to work better at Gamescom, so there will be a lot more story and premise added in the final game. But this will give you a taste of what the Story Mode will be like when it’s all done.
We've also added pickups: coins, shards and meteorites. They are there as rewards but can not yet be used, only collected.
Coins: Can be used in a small shop that will be located in the Lobby. You will be able to buy everything from skins, Meteorites and new fighting dummies for the Lobby.
Shards: These are Meteorite shards, you will be able to collect and combine them into new Meteorites.
Meteorites: These are character upgrades that modifies how you character plays. Every character can equip up to 3 different Meteorites. They can make your character faster, stronger or change how an ability works.
This will make it possible to customize your character build, so you can create a DPS Healer or a "vampire" Striker with a ton of life steal, your imagination sets the limits!
If you are interested in seeing this version, please keep an eye on our channel as we are going to broadcast some streams when we, and a few others, are playing it! And if you are going to Gamescom, don’t forget to stop by our booth for some awesome gaming and chatting!
Love, The Dino crew
Update #2 and our new trailer!
Hi everyone!
Since our last update we've made a lot of progress. We are still in our alpha phase, but the picture of how the game is going to turn out in the end is getting clearer!
Here are a few things that have happened this year so far: • Our new color palette is implemented • Froggy, our first real boss, is now playable • We've made a lot more cutscenes • Some NPC:s are now in game (and you can talk to them!!) • Our fourth playable character, Mercury, is almost completely done • Our new cover art is finished and live here on Steam!
Right now we are wrapping up things in Chapter 1 in our story mode. We are done with the alpha stage for chapter 1, and are moving on to begin with chapter 2. We are aiming to be in the Beta phase in the middle of the autumn! And speaking of Beta, we are planning on having an Open Beta weekend this year where you can try out a section of our Story Mode!! SO EXCITING! But more of that later on.
Speaking of new things, we have made an update of our trailer! We are so proud of how it turned out, and really hope that you'll like it!

Hi everyone!
We just wanted to say a few words before everyone goes on a little holiday break to celebrate Christmas among friends and family.
This year has been more fantastic than we ever could have imagined! We are working on our dream project and have found the perfect people to help us on this journey of making our first premium game. If 2021 was this amazing, how great won’t 2022 be?! We are sooo excited for all the things in front of us and with our great team and our fantastic community, we simply know it won’t be anything less than amazing!
So, to sum this up, we want to thank you for all your support and let’s kick some ass together in 2022!
Have a Merry Christmas & A Happy New Year!!
Update #1 from Go Fight Fantastic!
Hi everyone,
This is our first announcement here on Steam since we started working on our game! Even thought a lot has happened since the beginning, we still have quite a few steps to take before we are finished with the game. We’re hoping you’ll come along on this journey, together with us!
If you have already pre-ordered the game through our Kickstarter, you can try out our Horde Mode (or even our Hell Mode if you’re feeling cocky), right here on Steam using your Closed Beta Steam Key. If you haven’t received your Closed Beta Steam Key from the Kickstarter, hit us up on the Discord (discord.gg/gofightfantastic) and we’ll help you out right away!
We are currently working on the Story Mode and putting a lot of hard work into it. Here are some things that we have accomplished recently: - We’ve made a ton of improvements to our enemy-behaviors, specifically more intelligent movement and attack behaviors. - We’re adding a new enemy, called the Zoner – a sneaky, ranged caster type enemy. - We’ve made a bunch of progress on the cutscenes for Chapter 1 - The first real boss (Froggy, as seen in the trailer) is starting to really come together! - A lot of work on environment art for Chapter 1, such as the town square opening and the first stretch of journey through the woods. The adventure is really coming together!
And, just as you can see on our cover image, we’ve also made new character portraits of Dark Matter, Max Sparkles and Super Nova! We really wanted to convey our characters’ different personalities by gesture and facial expression, and we think we really nailed it!
Our (first) three main characters:
Dark Matter, to the left, is not afraid to speak his mind and always follows his own path. He's always been pretty cocky and stubborn, and even as a child he ran away from his foster home and never to look back.
In the middle we have Super Nova! She is the calm and strong one in the crew. But even though she always looks calm and in total control, she can be quite anxious. There is a reason to why she is the tank - she is always ready to take a rough beating with her shield and high HP!
Last but not least, we have Max Sparkles, and as you can see, he's a happy go lucky guy! He has a spirit companion that gives him his healing power. And, in fact, that little lightbulb has a name - Aumakua! Aumakua and Max are a good team, always looking out for each other.
We also want to inform you that every week before Christmas we are announcing different contests at our Discord, and you can win some pretty sweet prices! So please don't forget to join the community over there as well at https://Discord.gg/GoFightFantastic! 😊
