Art of Fighting 1 (+ alt) [Arcade] - Micky in 1P mode (with glitches)
11This is a play-through of 1-player mode using Micky Rogers in the Arcade version of Art Of Fighting 1. Read on below for more information...
Micky is the 5th enemy character in the 1-player Story Mode. He is a playable character, but he can only be used in 2-player versus matches.
===== HOW TO SELECT MICKY =====
He is available on the character select screen whenever you're in 2-player versus mode.
===== MICKY MOVES =====
----- Special Moves -----
Burning Upper: QCF + Punch
Rolling: QCF + Kick
===== MICKY GAMEPLAY =====
As the "boxer" character of the game, he has great punch range and decent speed, making him a very good character against the CPU. His hitboxes seem to be large as well. His "weaknesses" may come in the form of his special moves, which there is a delay before the projectiles come out.
===== MICKY INFORMATION =====
---- He does not have a Super nor a Desperation move.
---- After the Bonus Games, if it shows the special move advice commands, you cannot see his "demonstrations" but can hear his sounds.
---- In the original version of the game, in the Ice Pillar bonus game, if you fill up the gauge, it will produce a set of glitched sprites because the character status is "Micky". You can see this at around 12:36 in the video.
---- In the original version of the game, in the Bonus Game where you need to perform the Haou Shoukou Ken multiple times, he obviously cannot pass it as he doesn't have the move. Afterwards, some graphical elements are leftover on the screen which will eventually lead to game corruption and crashes. You can see this starting around 05:34 in the video. The crash is at 06:41.
---- After you defeat Mr. Karate, in the "beating up Mr. Karate" cutscene, his colour palette is a black shadow.
===== TRIVIA =====
---- The debut game of Micky/Mickey Rogers.
---- He is known as the Micky the Mauler.
---- In terms of game-affecting roles, aside from AOF1 and AOF2, his only other appearance is in Quiz King of Fighters.
---- He has made a number of cameo appearances in various SNK games.
===== THE ORIGINAL GAME =====
The version of Art of Fighting 1 seen in this video is the original version. As it is the original version, it means that glitches, halts, freezes and crashes can potentially happen when playing as enemy and boss characters in a 1-player game. These problems occur because of the Bonus Games, and there are ways to get round this within the game as you long as you know how. Also, you don't get to fight Mr. Karate when playing as the enemy characters.
===== ABOUT THE ALTERNATE VERSION OF THE GAME =====
This is a specially changed version of the game with all the characters and bosses permanently unlocked. This means that you can play through a 1-Player game with the enemy and boss characters.
This version also makes changes to specific elements such as the text/dialogue boxes and sprites during the Bonus games to prevent the game from halting/crashing (which is what can happen if you use unofficial methods to play as the enemies/bosses in the original version in a 1P game). Other changes include making it so that all the enemy/boss characters can meet all the enemies and bosses in a 1-player game.
===== ABOUT AOF1 =====
The game features impressively large 2D sprites for it's time. The AOF series, with it's usage of graphical zooming, music style, sound effects and voices, has always gave you that intense and stylish atmospheric feel in fights.
