MK+ developer Drew just posted an interesting video discussing how collision detection works in the arcade version of Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3. If you’re a programmer, or someone who works on arcade romhacks, this is a must-watch…but I honestly think it’s great for fans of the game as well. While it does get a bit technical, it was very cool to see exactly what’s going on in the game when you land a hit and the visual examples are a great way to absorb it all.
Also, if you haven’t heard of the MK+ project you should definitely check out the interview with Drew and Paul below. They’re more like “rebuilds” of the games than “romhacks” and add so much cool stuff! Here’s the main website, but the interview below goes through all the details and story behind the project: https://mortalkombat.plus/
