For the more advanced creators of the forum how difficult do you guys think creating a openbor mod in the style of smash bros would be? as far as the stages and camera zooms and everything? I had the thought recently and thought it would be a great idea for a mod if feasible if there are already examples around please point me in the right direction
 
Zoom isn't really difficult from a technical perspective. Zooming IN is laughably easy. Zooming out is easy too, but making it not look stupid is another matter.

To zoom out like you see in Smash Brothers or early SNK fighters you have to think well in advance and build everything around the maximum zoom distance. Doable, but will take patience.

You'll still have it easier than SNK did, since the Neo could only reduce, not enlarge.

@Bloodbane no that looks a little more chaotic than what I'm hoping for plus I want the goal to be eliminating opponents from the fighting stage vs depleting their life bar.

The 2D stages are set up like Smash Bros though, which you were asking for. Simply adding less enemies is all you need to do to make it less chaotic so that's an easy fix, which means the only thing you really need is making enemies fly off the stage when their damage is high, or give them all 1000 health and have entities fall based on that. I would also imagine creating some entity that takes up the whole left and right side of the screen, then one floating above, that kills anything that comes in contact with it, so there would have to be BBox's set during their fall animation, which is Smash style anyway.

Bloodbane did that with my Sega Brawlers video he posted, that's the closest you'll get cause IIRC, I'm the only one that attempted anything close to smash bros.
