Inside the Matrix

[O Ilusionista]

Another MUGEN stage I decided to revisit: *Inside The Matrix*, inspired by one of my favorite movies.


Since the stage was released 14 years ago—and I ran into a website issue shortly after—it had been lost in limbo. I managed to get my old external hard drive working and recover the stage to create a higher-quality video—though, unfortunately, YouTube's compression still degrades it a bit.

I also had to update the stage's music; even though the original composer had given me permission to use it, YouTube's copyright system blocked it—to the point where it wouldn't even allow for shared monetization.

Back then, the engine didn't support stages with animated parallax (like the effect you see on the ground), so we had to get creative to achieve that result. Necessity is the mother of invention
