I've said it before, and I'll say it again. I love the way the Scrublords intro accurately lowers all expectations. The Groose Theme. That soft whimper Woolie makes as he closes the door. The lack of any actual snacks, and instead having Vodka straight out of the bottle. The despair and confusion on everyone's faces as they get ready to record. This is what playing on the floor feels like. There are zero expectations here.
+Bobgrey Same =(... If they just polish the frame rate, rework the damage percentages and maybe add some type of combo-system it would be decent in my opinion.
Just the concept of this game alone is what we all want. They just need to up the whip punch and kick sounds, and add all the roles they played as different attire
did you notice the staggering two combo lie leading into over priced purchase proclamation originating from the grandma swamp style? even did the proper followthrough with the ultimate immediate back down recovery. scrublord of the temple zaibatsu knows his shit
KoRReaction i bet it could come out halfway decent and for a niche audience. Like that one halloween fighting game they played along time ago? Iunno. Fite m3
I recognized one of the songs (the one at "The Gate"where Snake Fist was fighting). Its definitely from one of those old Kung Fu movies just not sure which one.
Thanks for checking out my little indie game it's still very early in development and thats the reason it's in early access. Most of issues with featured in this video were already addressed and patched the since this video was done. Thanks for the coverage and criticism :)
this should be the top comment on here because it's a comment from the actual DEV and not some random fanboy trash anyway this game looks cool! i found out about it today and will check it out soon.
*Peers into the bottom of the barrel, the deepest depths of the what we all thought to be an eternal abyss.* ... There is still more, there's always more we haven't uncovered.
For those curious Yes, this is indeed the same Developer AND Publisher of Kings of Kung Fu. Though you do not see both appear when clicking on the Dev's name on the store pages as one is listed as "Jae Lee Production" and the other is listed as "Jae Lee Productions"
Hasan/Hashimoto/ Yeah. It is that specific. In this case, I see it as a reasonable mistake to make, especially judging by the credits, they may not be all Native English devs. But there have been some people who used that fact "to their advantage", like Digital Homicide.
+Runaway Script of David Cage From the steam page: "The game features authentic fighting sounds from films and a licensed soundtrack with great music from classic kung fu movies."
It might be because I'm not familiar with many old kung fu movies (my experience is more of the crappy 70's stuff that gives me a real nostalgia rush), but the music here reminds me more of something like "Rocky Jones: Space Ranger" or other sci-fi stuff than kung fu.
I'm giving you guys a thumbs up for this vid just for the fact that it reminded me that wutang shaolin style exists. good or bad I had a lot of fun playing that game with my cousin. I still remember the music.
I love classic kung fu movies. I recognize most of these characters' source material. Why? Why must these ultra-specific tributes turn out so terrible?
+Soliduz Znake Pretty sure Dragon is Bruce Lee and Drunken Fist is Jackie Chan, and goofy stereotypical kung fu movies were the best shit they ever made. Fuck knows what Jackie Chan has been doing the past 20 years besides spreading propaganda.
+starschwar You answered your own question, because they are ultra-specific, which means no one wants to sink in a lot of money into it because they won't get their return.
+starschwar Good sound design and attention to animation would have gone a long for a game based on these sort of movies. The best example of classic Chinese movie inspired character done right is Lee from SNK/SWERY65's Last Blade. The beautiful animation and sound in that game really did capture the character they were trying to portray, which was Jet Li's version of Wong Fei Hung. This game is too janky and ugly to even capture that.
Is it me or is the game audio off by about a second? *EDIT* All the audio is a little early, actually. You can tell at 24:47 when they react to the attack that hasn't happened yet.
"Putting a 3D plant object anywhere except on top of the character models in such a way that it blocks the players' vision is a failure of the game designer." -- David Cage, developer of Shaolin VS Wutang, probably.
Looking at this feels like; you and your little brother are playing a a match locally with no internet, on sunday and you still haven't done your homework for Monday. thats a bad feeling baby!
+Chris Merkel Studios what are you talking about? this is blaz blue right? can't you see the edgy main character with anime cliches and a text novel call "story"? you are clearly not a fan of blaz blue sir!
Wushu's stick sweep overhead was also used by Raiden in the MK PS2 era. It was OPAF there as well, and if I remember rightly, combo'd into itself until the game's in-built combo limiter forced you to stop 😆 Edit: totally figures that Matt noticed as well lol
You guys need to check out some Shaw Brothers movies. Armor of God is a clone of a character from the movie "Kid with the golden arms" which is FUCKING AMAZING
The game got patched and works a lot better now and fixed may issues such as damage and visual effects. Also soon there will be an update that adds more characters and stages. I hope they play this game again because it will be a significant update.
These men are using the bad framed time to hit their opponents with deadly out of nowhere blows! Truly how the original creators of martial arts imagined it would be used!
I've said it before, and I'll say it again. I love the way the Scrublords intro accurately lowers all expectations. The Groose Theme. That soft whimper Woolie makes as he closes the door.

there are not expectations here because we promise nothing and deliver less xD
honestly one of my favorite intros to anything
Then there's 0:24. Woolie sits down, ready to make the most of what they got. Then he receives the broken controller and realizes there is no hope.
Lets we forget, Pat's agonized groan at the end.
+Digishade and Matt getting entangled in a Dreamcast controller's wires.
This is actually heartbreaking because I'm in love with the idea of video games slavishly recreating the look of old movies and tv.
+Bobgrey Same =(... If they just polish the frame rate, rework the damage percentages and maybe add some type of combo-system it would be decent in my opinion.
+Hasan/Hashimoto/ i think it done by one person
+Hasan/Hashimoto/ but right with abit of polish..it could be awesome game..the music is epic
That music is godsend.
Just the concept of this game alone is what we all want. They just need to up the whip punch and kick sounds, and add all the roles they played as different attire

12:45 Woolie the liar doing what he does best, The game is totally still in early access.
The developer just added a win counter TODAY.
did you notice the staggering two combo lie leading into over priced purchase proclamation originating from the grandma swamp style? even did the proper followthrough with the ultimate immediate back down recovery. scrublord of the temple zaibatsu knows his shit
+Echo_Hotel As if the game reaching completion will be any better than it is right now anyway.
KoRReaction i bet it could come out halfway decent and for a niche audience. Like that one halloween fighting game they played along time ago? Iunno. Fite m3
+KoRReaction I know, right? No way a finished game could be better then one that is still in development.
Sla Nahesh
My point is, the game is going to suck finished or not.
this fucking music though, why are we not talking about the fucking music
+phoenixsplash135 Seriously, it sounds like it's from an old kaiju movie.
+phoenixsplash135
It's Scrublords, they can't, or at least shouldn't, spend too much time discussing things that the game does right.
+phoenixsplash135 Its too good for them to notice compared to the bad shit.
I recognized one of the songs (the one at "The Gate"where Snake Fist was fighting). Its definitely from one of those old Kung Fu movies just not sure which one.

It never ends, it's the infinite abyss
There's always more.
+Mother Rinko Every time you think you've hit the bottom, you realize that it makes a hollow sound. This wasn't the bottom. This was only a new lid.

Could you imagine some parent(s) would name their kid(s) " *8 Diagram Fist* ". They are such good parent(s).

Very well. From this day and end. I shall bestow upon you the name Eagle Claw. I am now your dad.

+Dedlok WOW. that's so specific! I was actually super confused, too.
alllday allday!!
Hasan/Hashimoto/ Yeah. It is that specific. In this case, I see it as a reasonable mistake to make, especially judging by the credits, they may not be all Native English devs. But there have been some people who used that fact "to their advantage", like Digital Homicide.
WOOLIE!
YOU SAID IT WOULD BE A FISTICUFFS WOOLIE!
THE LIES CONTINUE!
Just once I'd like them to play one of these old martial arts film themed fighting games and have one of the characters be Wimp Lo.
Face to foot style.
***** We made him the secret final boss. As a joke.
+N00BSYBORG imagine if every time he moved he had the fucking shoe squeaks
+N00BSYBORG My nipples look like milkduds
When you defeat him your character just feels bad and walks away and the screen says WIMP LO WINS
And here I thought this WASN'T going to be a Scrublords. Thanks Mr. The Liar.
We have another barrel.
***** Do we?
+AfroMetalMizu Made another one.
***** Barrel of what tho
+AfroMetalMizu Dildos
The fuck happened to video descriptions?
+Tommy W. (Behemothbear) being clever is too hard
+27TheMunchkin its fiiiine....
they link the website in the description but Not in the channel despite Many e-mails from me.
+Tommy W. (Behemothbear) was not born yet
+Tommy W. (Behemothbear)
Cause scrublordsday. Hopefully never fficial holiday.
This game would be 70% better if attacks did more damage.
It would still be awful, but 70% better nonetheless.
Just lean forward and take it hard, bud
I came in expecting a Wu-Tang Clan based fighting game and was immediately disappointed
Wu-Tang Shaolin Style is VERY different from Shaolin Vs Wutang
seconded
+KinglyRed I, too.
wait, i just started the video, its not?
The wu tang clan wasn't dissapointed, this is what they want! Shaolin vs wu tang canon as ain't NOTHING TO FUCK WIT
Hearing Pat get super salty over those throws was hilarious.
That's some strong-ass salt from Pat.
Oh, man - the controller lie! It's like Final Fight Streetwise all over again!
+Jeedy Jay
Montreal saves a fortune in the inter by just dragging pats bare ass up and down the streets :P
+Jeedy Jay "I am bleeding, making me the victor."
The sky is high, the cloud is low. But my water technique is hard to beat. But the earth can absorb water. Hai! Hai!
The dopest concept for a fighting game!
The music for this is actually pretty great.
Forgetting the cookies in 2021.
A working copy? I've kind of been waiting for this.
Oh...oh no.
To be honest, I was expecting 3rd Strike.
At this point Woolie must be making these games just for new non Blazblue episodes
Except they said over a year ago they'll just play the new one when it comes out.
+Nagato Uzumaki Oh im not worried about it I love seeing scrublords especially the obscure shit on steam
+Nagato Uzumaki It's not out yet in the west I think.
Is it? Haven't kept up with Arcsys in a while.
+Helis they haven't played it so guess not. They said they would when it comes out. Don't really care for Blazblue. Waiting for Revelator.
Did this game get its soundtrack from a move made in the 1930's?
I really hope so. There -is- actually a nice campy martial arts film feel to this game. just needs a little more work.

can someone isolate that clip of pat saying he shit his pants
Speaking of Martial Masters..... You guys gonna play it soon????
I been wanting to see you guys play this. Thanks!
I love how the light colors on the clothing flare out on the camera like how they do in old kung fu flicks
I'm giving you guys a thumbs up for this vid just for the fact that it reminded me that wutang shaolin style exists. good or bad I had a lot of fun playing that game with my cousin. I still remember the music.
the films these charecters are from are brilliant, i recomend everyone should watch them.
Get hype for Third Strike!
oh fuck it actually works this time
Godammit, I have been lied and swindled to.
the salt that built up within me, when I learned that no one would be protecting their necks in this video. ghost face did not kill on this day
Lei-Fei (the monk) in Virtua Fighter has a grab almost the same as the one at 13:00
No matter how many ScrubLords come out, I always laugh at "You forgot the cookies!"
Liam: "is this game early access?"
Matt + Woolie: "It's Not"
Accept that it is
I really like the soundtrack. That old school kung fu movie music.
I love classic kung fu movies. I recognize most of these characters' source material. Why? Why must these ultra-specific tributes turn out so terrible?
+Soliduz Znake Pretty sure Dragon is Bruce Lee and Drunken Fist is Jackie Chan, and goofy stereotypical kung fu movies were the best shit they ever made. Fuck knows what Jackie Chan has been doing the past 20 years besides spreading propaganda.

eventually we'll hit the center of the earth with how aggressively woolie is scraping that barrel...
Dude in the center of the thumbnail looks like Pai Mei from Kill Bill.
So the game ACTUALLY IS in Early access right now, despite what Matt said, for anyone curious.
Are they gonna do it this time?
Also, Woolie lied (no surprises) he said this would be titled a Fistcuffs.....
+Tearonex they made fun of him for accidentally saying that.
Woolie lied? Shocking truth revealed!
Nagato Uzumaki
I expected him to run with it and title it Fisticuffs and keep all the Scublords' stuff in it...
+Tearonex Maybe they wanted it to be, but than, they played the game, and decided to change the title?
The voice clips in the White Brow/Wu Shu fight are making me cry.
Wow! Look at these smooth, fluid character animations.
*Saturday literally just beginning*= Morning
This is amazing. I thoroughly enjoyed this video. We really need more trash like this.
Yeah! Shaolin Style- *Oh.*
13.99 in Canadian money.
So like 4 bucks american.
just make sure not to leave it put in the sun
+Matthew Dunphy It'd be worth more if we stopped giving it away in copies of Monopoly. Those days when the Parker Brothers ruled were dark times...
right on time after the hockey game!

92% of positive reviews on Steam !
+Mantis47 HOOOOOOW??!
Play it and you'll find out.
BECAUSE ITS great iNDI GAME MADE BY ONE GUY . Also Great throwback to old fighting movies
that buddha head stage theme should be the new scrublords theme
Update happened... will we see round two?!
Sooner or later, Woolie's gonna bring the best friends into the world of Flash Fighting Games.
Dragon Fist 2: Battle for The Fist coming soon.
It's incredible to see how many positive reviews this got on steam.
Looking at this feels like; you and your little brother are playing a a match locally with no internet, on sunday and you still haven't done your homework for Monday. thats a bad feeling baby!
I always wanted a game with old school kung fu characters. I gotta get this
"promise nothing, deliver less" perfectly describes Scrublords, no Pat in general.
The Steam page does say it's early access lol
Remember when these use to be an hour plus? Don't mean to complain but i like watching you guys lay these and look forward to the fisti lords
+Alvin Banthem That's funny. I was thinking that this video deserved to be 15 minutes long.
The grass under the big head keeps phasing out of existence.
"He used a fan against that guy with the chain"
I've always thought that guy looked like fucking Kung Lao.
BlazBlue ain't nothin' to fuck with.
+Chris Merkel Studios I saw Wu Tang Clan live. They're pretty hype.
When's Wutang?
+Chris Merkel Studios what are you talking about? this is blaz blue right? can't you see the edgy main character with anime cliches and a text novel call "story"? you are clearly not a fan of blaz blue sir!
+Chris Merkel Studios THE WHEEL OF FATE IS FARTING.
+Goblin Rat the lazy susan of fate is turning
The game is actually in Early Access, for whatever that's worth.
Wow, did they manage to scratch the disc on this game, too?
Dammit, I'm expecting a kaiju to suddenly appear during the fight with that epic background music.
So... Is this also going to sell better than SFV?
the Third Strike of fighting games
Fun Fact: The guy who does 5 Element Fist is actually THE GHOST FACE KILLER HIMSELF! WUTANG CONFIRMED!
I'll give them credit: Armor of God is a pretty good likeness of Philip Kwok from the Venom Mob.
Armor of God is Lo Mang aka The Toad but his attire is taken from the Venoms movie Kid With The Golden Arms
Wushu's stick sweep overhead was also used by Raiden in the MK PS2 era. It was OPAF there as well, and if I remember rightly, combo'd into itself until the game's in-built combo limiter forced you to stop 😆
Edit: totally figures that Matt noticed as well lol
Every time I see the Scrublords opening I can't help but laugh
why does this have positive steam review?
+dah715 I apologize for this game. it sucks. we reviewed it wrong. As a joke.
If you have an ass I'll kick it!
When's Dat Boi, Ol' Dirty gonna drop his new album?
I was very hyped for "Wu Tang Shaolin Style" but instead i got this
Also I still want to see you guys play chakan the forever man
ITS BACK
GUYS THE NOTHING
THE NOTHING'S BACK
You guys need to check out some Shaw Brothers movies. Armor of God is a clone of a character from the movie "Kid with the golden arms" which is FUCKING AMAZING
Thanks S.P..U.K.E!
I bought my cd copy of liquid swords used. It came in the cd case of nightmare creatures, with no booklet.
I see that your editing is at the same level as the games you are playing.
From the slums of Shaolin, Wutang clan strikes again.
Looks like it's in Early Access now
It was always in early access i'm not sure why they said it wasn't.
God, that music. This game would be awesome if they recorded all the audio on 60s mics and applied a black-and-white filter to it.
@TheSw1tcher When's The Rumble Fish 2?
this game has my childhood inside it. I seen all these movies. but I wish the fighting was better.
"I apologize for Shaolin VS Wutang. We programmed it wrong, as a joke."
"When the person's computer is too good the game starts to run worse."
I will be a console pleb for life.
i miss the days when videos had descriptions.
The game got patched and works a lot better now and fixed may issues such as damage and visual effects. Also soon there will be an update that adds more characters and stages. I hope they play this game again because it will be a significant update.
I can't wait for "OH MY GOD I SHIT MY PANTS" to become an out of context soundbite.
These men are using the bad framed time to hit their opponents with deadly out of nowhere blows! Truly how the original creators of martial arts imagined it would be used!
Happy saturday morning you guys
"Man, that is BLATANT false advertisement."
started drinking before watching this, I made the right choice
I hope this gets better, its still in early access so they can fix everything, I hope
