- This is the official UA-cam version of the infamous sprite epic "Not Another Sprite Fight"
The original Newgrounds version is here:
www.newgrounds....
Given the limitations that are preventing me from starting NASF 2, I've already started a remake of NASF which will be called NASF DX. It'll be longer, featuring extended fights, additional characters, new scenes, and vastly improved animation, visuals and sound design. I'll start releasing screens and more details once the animation process is going.
Technical Info:
Flash 8 document, minimum of version 8 Flash Player needed to view original swf file.
Dimensions: 550x400 (Flash's default)
FPS: 30 (on UA-cam its more like 15-20... go watch the NG version please, Sothink avi converter raped the quality)
Frames: Barely under 16,000
Filesize (swf): 9 mb
FAQ:
Q: What programs did you use to make this?
A:
Flash 8 (animation)
Photoshop (some effects and special edits)
Game Maker (sprite ripping and editing)
Sound Forge (sound editing)
FL Studio (some custom sounds)
And a few other programs like Paint occasionally were used.
Q: Are you making a sequel?
A: YES. I'm making the freakin sequel so don't wet yourself.
Q: When will the sequel be--
A: I DON'T KNOW WHEN ITS GOING TO BE DONE. I don't have deadlines, I'm not a corporation, I'm just a guy who does this on his free time. I'm not obligated to make it so be grateful that I'm making it at all!
Update: NASF 2 cannot begin until Helix has been developed enough to be useable. We are working hard on Helix so there is real progress going on.
Also, nobody has won yet, and your arguments that Mario could not possibly beat anyone because he's just a plumber are totally irrational so go to hell.
Yes the video quality sucks. That's the last time I use Sothink swf to avi converter. Piece of crap. So, enjoy the non-stolen official UA-cam release of NASF.

Before the fall of flash player, I'd like to say that this is one of the most influential sprite animations of all time.
I've seen this god-knows-how-many times ever since it first came out five years ago and I'm still impressed and find something else to appreciate every time I watch it. This is a really great animation. I also can't help but be surprised to find out you're still animating!
Dodges and counter attacks waves of projectiles that have varying speeds and movements.
Can maintain full running speed while jumping across platforms no wider than his shoes.
There has been no platforming challenge too ridiculous for him to overcome, no enemy too fast or powerful for him to defeat.
And he can do all these things while performing acrobats, airborne somersaults and cartwheels.
His abilities have no delay between them. His reflexes are virtually limitless.
Wanna send the master games episode swf file to me privately, open a Google drive file that only us can see, I promise that I will not publish the episode I'm your fan
I agree, the characters are unbalanced. This is one of the biggest reasons why I regret how I finished this project. I'm a bigger fan of Sonic than I am Mario, so that kind of bias has no effect here. Mario is an unstoppable force which is what most of his games suggest. He has indefinitely fast reflexes. Mario has conquered gods with nothing but ridiculous athletics, reaction time, wits, and a hammer, with the occasional super power.
Check this ua-cam.com/video/jojggVw2v_w/v-deo.html
Hasn't Sonic, Kirby, and Link also defeated gods? Oh wait this is 2008
Yeah, I think Mario would win. His strength and durability far surpass Sonics, not to mention Mario has near perfect reaction time and reflexes. Throw in a large supply of powerups that he is able to carry and Mario takes it. Sonic isn't able to use sheilds whenever he wants like in the Death Battle. The only way I see Sonic winning is if he is Super Sonic and Mario has no powerups. Death Battles only excuse for Sonic winning was speed, which Mario can easily counter. -_-
Mario's balanced style is a force to be reckoned with as far as I know since he has be jumping on his foes heads for long awhile it makes sense that's his most strongest move.
This is really epicly cool. you shouldn't spend so much time bashing yourself though. :)
i love how you improved upon characters abilities, redesigning the effect on song of time, showing what happens when kirby absorbs someone, improving megamans blasts, marios mushroom. GENIUS!
추억이네 어렷을때 야후꾸러기에서 이거 봣었는데ㅋㅋ10년만에 찾앗네
오 저돈데 ㅋㅋㅋ
와 야후꾸러기 국룰ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Dude, when sonic rushed in and kicked mario right in the jaw, my mouth dropped to the floor! That was epic! awesome job on this!
plus, crazyeight even started on youtube o_o
dude... I have to admit, you inspired me as much or as well as SMBZ,
NASF is badass... and I have studied it a million times...
As someone who gained his entire inspiration for ever even starting animation in the first place from this one video, I have to say, I cannot wait to see NASF 2 when it finally comes out. I've been silently following Lange since the release of this video and everything that he has done has just kept getting better. I am constantly looking towards him to find new techniques for pixel animation in hopes to master them and grow off them. Looking forward to what comes from this 5+ year wait. GoodJob
dude mad props to your animating skills yo, you do top notch work and really pay great attention to the little things that add to the awesomeness you create you inspire me to make good animations myself so thank you and more power too ya
Mr. Lange, I'm already half way thru SMBZ and all I can say is THANK YOU
dude i would watch these when i was a kid and just remembered them. These fights were amazing to me growing up and to this day its still very impressive. Good job man I'm not sure if you even use this account any more but I have been watching your sprite fights since you began. Good job this is lit.
For flash...that was actually...
pretty good, you made it with the proper balance of epic, humor, and originality (well, stuff like the defeated portal and such anyway)
and more importantly, all of the movements were smooth, unlike some choppy stuff I've seen in the past from other people
pretty good video!
and the best is you answering the coments about your movie, this not another just uploaded video.
5 stars 4 iu!
keep doing things like this.
One of the best flash sprite animations ever!
In case you haven't had 5 million people already tell you this, I'll say that this was perfectly made. Its excellent. The Link fight scenes were very good.
Can't wait til the next one.
Oh believe me it will.
It will happen over and over again.
Because since the day this released, people have been asking what that song is. This apparently baffling question has kept people asking without relent and there is no end in sight.
No one can read the credits, no one knows what that song is, but everyone has to know.
Ah, okay. And by the way, your animations are awesome ! especially the "Ryu vs Strider" fight, I guess that was the best animation you've done by far !
That was a very entertaining sprite fight dude i can tell you put a lot of effort into that very very nice work i have flash so i now become more inspired Ty ^_^!!
@otakusoul22 I agree. He's super strong, very fast, has ridiculous jumping and acrobatic abilities, has super human reflexes, and overcomes every challenge no matter how insane or impossible it seems.
I love all the music and sounds you used for this video. such as rayman's band land and monstro's battle theme from kingdom hearts.
Man watching this gets me excited to see the sequel. Take as much time as you need to be able to finish it.
You're right. The difference is that physically Mario can not move his whole body nearly as fast (lacks full body agility, he can still strike with limbs extremely fast though). Since most of Sonic's attacks involve having to make direct contact, he's at constant risk of getting caught or hit by Mario. Sonic's one or two projectile attacks would be essentially useless since Mario is also the master of projectile dodging.
nice video you have there i rly liked the way you showed the characters abilities well expect for megaman anyways hopefully there will be a 2nd one cuz its the best sprite fight i ever seen by the way im saying this cuz they are things in your video that is unique like when kirby says chaos control or when link played is ocarina
Holy crap, the same guy who animates Death Battle did this? That's awesome, I didn't know about DB back in the day. You're one cool dude.
No need to be sorry, you just extended a point I've made zillions of times now. In fact I appreciate you standing out and saying it, no one else really does.
ShortFactor, may I ask what you used to prevent audio lag in your finalized SWF file? Sound Forge? I'm just wondering because I'm animator myself and the audio lag is just...not nice.
i'll answer it for you
no
he isn't going to sub you just cause you subbed him he's not going to friend you just cause you want him to
From the Mega Man X series, he was Mega Man's partner, the second main character. Instead of fighting solely with a buster, he had a beam sword called the Z saber (though he didn't get it until after the first game). He got a spin off series on the GBA called Mega Man Zero, which takes places centuries later in the timeline.
Nice technique, I like how seamless animated the characters and scenes perfectly.
I remember this animation. Good old nostalgia
true true
If you did pay attention to the Mario games, it would suggest he has inhumanly fast reflexes. He has invincible defense maneuvers that rely solely on timing, he has to make jumps with extreme precision even while moving very fast, and a lot of his acrobats are dependent on extraordinary timing (hence why he practically abuses the laws of physics). He can move fast too, he has a running speed that well exceeds human limits, and individually his limbs can move like lightning.
Read description, work on sequel is currently stopped until Helix is released by him and his "team".
He's currently doing remake of original NASF, ie. this one.
I don't want people answering for me because no one knows how I think or how I will respond. But he summed it up pretty well.
Don't blame me, I get lost in these comment chains, and so I missed your question.
NASF 2 is only in development in the way of content. In other words, the graphics, character models, sound design, music, and script writing. The real animation cannot begin until Helix has made significant progress. Helix doesn't have to be totally done, just completed enough with certain features intact. In the meantime, a remake of NASF is not that unrealistic. Its far less demanding of a project.
Try watching the scene again without looking away from the screen.
Observe Zero as he leaves the scene. Observe the events beforehand. But while these events are happening, you have to be looking at the screen. Otherwise, you may think Zero just disappeared and ask what happened to him.
What you're referring to is a sprite sheet.
There are different ways to do that. The traditional method is directly in Flash, in which you manually cut out the frames and place them in a frame by frame sequence in separate symbols.
A method I used to do most often was use Game Maker's sprite editor, which has a tool for stringing together the frames in sprite sheets.
Yeah I do enjoy animating Death Battles. Gives me a chance to make a bunch of fights that I may have had ideas for but wouldn't have been interested enough on my own to make them. With a platform like Death Battle and all the people who are interested, it makes it worth it. I'll never get tired of sprite animation, but once I get my biggest sprite animation projects done, I'll be moving on to bigger things.
oh sorry about that shortfactor won't happen again
what are you talking about, no one talking about his looks,and for a guy who have a robot army,a IQ of 300,unleash the real ultimate life form,who blew the world apart to unleashed a god like beast from it's sleep,and who took control of a time beast,pretty must get my vote for a awesome crazy evil mad man.
i actually liked the annotations, if they were not there, i wouldnt have noticed the details he talked about, plus, we kinda get to know the guy in a sense who made this, which kinda makes it personal . anyways i like it.
This isn't just a sprite fight...this is THE sprite fight!
Awesome video!
Also,5:27 was ULTRA LOLZ!
This is so freaking awesome,
I always watch this movie for inspiration.
hey man this came out lookin epic you rock
Most people seem to be aware that Kirby is quite powerful. It's Mario who isn't recognized as powerful, which is even stranger.
I first started coming up with ideas in early 2006. I started the animation in Spring 2007 and it took over 3 months to complete. It was submitted to Newgrounds in July.
I love that moment at 6:05, I know a lot of people have said this before but I just wanted to get my opinion across the music is perfect.
Finally a video where Mario looks good. I am a big fan of Mario and I'm glad he ruled here.
Oh, I see. Moyea SWF to Video Converter Pro is actually really good. There's no audio lag once convertered. Except that you can only get a trial without paying for it which puts the watermark in the corner so it's pretty much pointless. There's also no lag if you make your animation into different scenes but that's no good when you're going to upload it as a single file...Maybe there won't be lag if you change Streamed sounds into normal Event sounds?
In style, Zero is a successor to Proto Man; he fills that same character relationship niche. Technically, according to the storyline, Zero is a successor to Bass, who was actually Zero's prototype.
I was 15 when this flash first came out. Here I am at 21 going on 22 and it's still one of my favorite sprite flashes. The sword fight with link and zero was awesome, the 3d you did with kirbys up throw attack was great. So many things you did that really amazed me as a girl. You're practically the reason that got me loving sprite fights. I used to look up alot of them on new grounds hoping that some would be just as good as yours.
You really set the standards for me though.
Really, Really Good Movie. I think it deserves much more attention.
This is the best sprite fight what I`ve seen : D
Must show to all friends
PURE EPIC! No wonder you were chosen to animate Death Battle.
I can't believe I didn't realize that you were creating the battles for Stereotype Stockname. What a small world, full of coincidences. At least you realize the flawed outcomes of some of them.
Yes. NASF DX. It'll be up to date with my current skills, feature scenes I never got to make and characters that were cut, and actually have more than one kind of scenery to look at.
Aside from the fact that this IS a sprite movie (so most graphics and sounds are not purely original content), as well as a couple small ideas, this movie in terms of animation and ideas was made entirely by me.
No. What I have planned is basically the game characters play exactly as they would in their original games, with the same controls, physics, and abilities. However, their abilities would be expanded upon and they would generally be more capable and able to maneuver a bit better. Think about how Mega Man Power Fighters featured the same game mechanics as Mega Man, but you could also wall jump, had some melee attacks, etc.
Alright sounds good I'll try it out. Thank you :D Can't wait for NASF 2 :D
There are no "steps". Just a set of practices you can learn to try and make an idea happen. The "steps" will be unique to everything you ever make.
Nice vid. btw the song at 7:25 that you said you didn't know is in Super Smash bros when you unlock a character and it shows a message that you unlock that character
Okay. i dont know much about how sprite fights are made nor do i know much about what people are looking for in one. but i do know this much: THIS ENTIRE FIGHT IS DA SHIT!! (if you pardon my french) every scene in this video was skillfully made, smooth as butter to watch, and down right fun to see. simply put, dont let anyone say you messed something up. everyone's a critic. (except me)
Art doesn't need storylines to make it art.
Aw, I'm sorry to hear. Best of luck to you with any further projects, though!
fair enough. but keep in mind that, as i said not to long ago, sonic has always moved like that, even in his games (especially his recent games) so that doesn't really change mind view point over this. like i said before, imo without any powers of some kind, the battle is heavily in sonic's favour.
Not only have I answered this a million billion times, IT'S IN THE CREDITS.
I'd kill for that sequel to finish up. It's been three years. I guess I should give up hope.
Mario defeated the Axem Rangers, and all four of them had super speed. Its not like Mario hasn't dealt with super fast enemies before. The point being made here is that Mario has nearly flawless reaction time, which is evidenced by the challenges he's had to overcome. Sonic has almost nothing in the way of projectiles and has to make physical contact with Mario in order to attack, which only allows Mario to gain the offense.
Like rainbow islands, parasol stars, bubble symphony and bubble memories which all add to Bob's storyline and powerups ect. And, we all know Luigi, and once again, its the year of Luigi
Really good video, nicely put together.
*inhales* I can finally breath again.....
All those rubbish slideshow sprite movies have been choking me to death for too long.
Also, too bad about poor Megaman, but you already mentioned why on the annotations, and to my DoctorFaust account on NG.
Shine on, man. Shine on.
This guy knows his stuff, and I'm not surprised that Link survived long enough to be apart of the final four. Link is badass, he could have beat Kirby if it wasn't for Mario.
No problem, bro. Thanks for reading the comments.
it's funny how 90% of this fight is now possible in Smash Ultimate lol
It was created specifically for the defeated portals in NASF, it is meant to be unique. I wouldn't recommend using it for something else. There's plenty of voice clips of "defeated" out there if you look.
Hey Shortfactor! Just watched the new DEATH BATTLE and oh my goodness! Literally one of the best you have done in 2d sprites!.. Pretty sure there are other ones but I'm blinded by awesomeness to look for the best lol. And can't wait to see the next one! Finally we get out of serious oriented characters for a while. And if you think about it.. 6 of the original brawl rosters have been in DB.. All that's left is Captain Falcon.. And Kirby! COINCIDENCE I THINK NOT..but it's probably a coincedence.
On UA-cam, something like this is HIGHLY unlikely to get a nomination of any kind.
This did get on NG's front page for a couple of weeks though.
Zero was Defeated. I revealed in the first preview of NASF 2 that Luigi is not gone yet.
I wanted to make outtakes for NASF but was never able to.
I'm considering making outtakes for both movies at once sometime after I finish the sequel, though I may not.
Best sprite movie I've ever seen. Thumbs up and favorited.
Dude, this was epic, U R AN IDOL
Since I've put up this comment, I've went thru the works of the names you've listed as much as my interest would allow and I gotta say my favorites are you, Yuu-Mon Musuedo, Alvin Earthworm, Paul ter Voorde, Bigfoot, & CrazyEight 901(probably, once he gets some longer projects up)
About the Luigi vs Bobblun Death battle i requested earlier, i would really appreciate it if you can atleast inform of the idea, the fight makes sense, but not many people remember the bubble bobble trilogy and it would make sense to have a death battle with luigi in it during the year of luigi, and this would make a great deathbattle if it would happen, and keep up the great work! :D
Yes those are indeed eligible candidates for the sequel.
It looks really awesome when you change the speed to 2.
Not another sprite fight indeed my good sir *lightly sips on tea*
love how you overinterperated Kirby's inhale.
"Light" from Kirby's Air Ride.
For anyone asking what the music is, just read the freakin' credits. They're listed in order.
I'm a very big fan of Mega Man. Mario being the most powerful is not because I'm biased. The characters' strength in that world is somewhat related to their status in our world. That was kind of the key point in this movie.
I thought I've made it abundantly clear at this point that Helix needs more development before I can legitimately start on NASF 2, due to the ridiculous demands of the animation that cannot be satisfied by existing software, or rather it is technically possible but would be like building a skyscraper with silverware. In the meantime I'm working on NASF DX, a remake of this, so just watch out for that one.
A fast-paced, "wombo-combo" production of unique qualities?
that was awesome I have just became a fan of ShortFactor for life
This Video (The Part where Mario Kicks Ass) is was got me into sprite fights years ago. Then I saw SMBZ after this, and it was overwhelming!
man, this was awesome, can't believe it was made in 2008 :(
Enjoyed it then, and still enjoy it now. Looking forward to NASF 2.
Well sonic as Super Sonic has used a move that looks and acts exactly the same as Chaos Spear to take down some enemies. He can also use other chaos moves while in super form which are called "Arrow of Light" (shoots toward the target), Deflect (as the name says), and a combo move which ends in lasors being fired from his hands.
Mario has defeated Bowser with the Star Rod (which allowed Bowser to become immeasurably more powerful with invincibility and mass healing spells), many other overpowered versions of Bower, an evil continent destroying goddess, and a variety of godlike supervillians. Super Sonic would be challenging, but like Batman, Mario always finds a way through unmatched technical skill, sheer wits, tenacity and resourcefulness.
Mario defeated the Axem Rangers without too much trouble and they move so fast they're invisible.
He can land on the edge of a fence post while hurtling through the air at cannonball speed.
Everything about Mario's games suggest he has superhuman reflexes and precision.
