Drawn to Murder

Drawn to Murder is an cartoon fighting game created by ChrisFClarke. It is spiritual successor to Drawn Together.
== Plot ==
Children's cartoons used to bring joy and wonder to young eyes until, right out of nowhere, episodes of them aired that were so full of gore, swearing, nudity, and other content that would be unacceptable to include in a kids' show that, in addition to traumatizing many kids and upsetting many parents, it also resulted in the firing of many writers and animators and, ultimately, the cancellation of said shows. Recently, a new threat, called the Nothingness, has emerged to put cartoonkind in danger of being gone forever and must be stopped before it's too late.

== Notes ==
* Drawn to Murder will have a Marvel vs. Capcom 3-like 2.5D gameplay format, with the ability to Meter-Burn special moves taken directly from NetherRealm Studios' Mortal Kombat reboot and Injustice series.
* The super moves in this game are called "Hyper-Toons," with each character having a Level 3 Hyper-Toon which, true to its name, can only be used if your super meter is at Level 3.
* There are two types of finishing moves in this game: "Deanimations," which are basically the Fatalities of Drawn to Murder, and Friendship-like moves called "Pacifist Acts," in which you can choose to, instead of killing your opponent, perform a friendly action for them. Pacifist Acts require that you win at least one round, then avoid blocking at all in your winning round.
* With the exception of the game intro, character ending, Deanimation and Pacifist Act sequences, and credits, which will have half the frame rate, I envision Drawn to Murder to run at 60fps.
* There are no character-specific stages. Instead, the characters will fight in one of these areas: incomplete cartoon sketch, fairytale forest, Nwotnoot outskirts, candy forest ruins, corpse-littered hills, Nwotnoot alley, Daisy's playroom, offensive ethnic cartoon stereotype erasement pit, desert road, vegetable garden, moving blimp, moving train, or outside the entrance to the MGW Productions headquarters in downtown Vancouver.
* Just like in Brütal Legend, due to the heavy profanities in Drawn to Murder, you will receive the warning, "WARNING: Drawn to Murder contains gratuitous use of nasty-ass words that you might hear from time to time. If you're strongly against bad language, picking "NO" is highly recommended." and you will have to either pick "YES" or "NO" first before playing the game. If "NO" is picked, the bad words will be muted out, and obscene gestures are no less susceptible to censorship.
* While character endings will be cinematic, character prologues will be told in a manner reminiscent of the start of every new game in Cuphead: starting by focusing on a book that opens to reveal the start of your chosen character's story inside.
* Just like in Cuphead, all the fighting is limited to only one camera angle, although the rival battle, cutaway gag, final boss battle, and ending cutscenes have multiple camera angles.
* Family Guy-style cutaway gags can be seen in the characters' rival battle, final boss, and ending cutscenes.
