Sunday Comics: Dead Island Faith Fighter was great, but some people complained, and now, it is gone. But that’s OK. Because no sooner is Faith Fighter gone than a sequel arrives!
Turns out you can get video games removed from the internet. All you need to do is offend the sensibilities of three major religions, as Molleindustria’s online god fighting game Faith Fighter did.
Last year, the Italian team of artists, designers and programmers known as Molleindustria released Faith Fighter, a 2D Flash-based brawler that pit God against Buddha, Jesus against Muhammed. Obviously, this upset some people.
Faith Fighters, a flash-based 2D fighter by Molleindustria, is exactly what its name suggests. You pick a deity (choices include God, Muhammad, Ganesh & Jesus), you get an opponent, you fight to the death, Street Fighter-style. It’s goal, according to Molleindustria, is to “push gamers to reflect on how [their]religions and sacred representations are often instrumentally used to fuel or justify conflicts between nations and people”. OK! Muslim readers upset at the inclusion of a physical representation of the prophet Muhammad (ie a big no-no), there’s a censored version of the game should you (or anyone else not already put off the game) still want to give it a try. I’d recommend it. The art style’s got a very The Behometh (Castle Crashers) feel to it, and for a flash-based fighter it’s pretty great. Faith Fighter [Molleindustria, via Water Cooler Games]
