Indie Brawl

A fighting game like Street Fighter or Super Smash Brothers but all the characters and stages are from indie games. Currently it has no AI or online multiplayer but it seems like it'd be fun if you could get someone to play with you.

A list of the main characters can be found here.
They're currently accepting help with graphics, characters, audio, etc. here.

One of the characters is a dwarf. Guess which game he's from.

Wow, this is pretty cool. Unfortunately I don't know of where half the characters come from.

Also disappointed by this:

Aww, that means no Quote or Curly :'(.

EDIT: Dwarf doesn't seem to be able to do much, either. Maybe suggest being able to take out a barrel of booze, and spend a while drinking it to recover health.

Bumping, since really, this needs more attention, and to note that there's nothing from Recettear in this yet.

Come on, hurry up and bring us some Capitalism, ho!

There's been a few topics on this already, actually. I wonder if Iji is actually animated now.

So do they have permission to use these guys or are they just straddling the line between hero worship and intellectual property theft?

Which is a shame because it takes the game from sort of being a silent collaboration of various indie devs, allowing their work to be used, to being one guy making a fighting game hitchhiking on the success of other people's work.   Which is drastically less interesting.

Implies that they do actually get permission (or at least remove a character if requested).

Welp, I only looked at the OP link and the character list.   Sorry Soulwynd didn't have the good faith to point me in the right direction- or even respond with words-, rather than try to 'get a hit in' with an image macro. 

Edit:  Thanks Qwerty for answering my question without being a dick.   And my apologies to the thread for getting misled by Soulwynd saying "used without permission".

They get permission from the creators to use characters and/or stages.They have a list of the games they have permission from here. It includes pending and denied permissions.
