'''''{{PAGENAME}}''''' is a fighting game developed by [[Visual Concepts]] and published by [[Interplay]] in 1994 for the [[Sega Mega Drive]]. This game is a port from the [[Super Nintendo]], with several gameplay changes taken from the updated SNES version, ''ClayFighter: Tournament Edition''. The game was most known for its colorful graphics, with each character modeled from clay to give the game its unique look.

Interestingly enough, Interplay opted to use the Mega Drive version for the [[Virtual Console]] release of the game, rather than any of the SNES versions.

==Story==
 +
A meteor made entirely out of clay crash-lands on the grounds of a humble American circus. The goo from the interstellar object contaminates all of the circus's attractions, transforming them into bizarre caricatures of their former selves, with new superpowers.
  
 
==Gameplay==
 
==Gameplay==
−
The game features eight playable characters, battling each other to become the 'King of the Circus'. The one-player game has the selected character battle through several matches, including a few rematches against previously beaten opponents, before fighting the game's final enemy, N. Boss. Each character has a set of special moves performed with special button combinations. When a character receives heavy damage, the word 'KO!' will appear above them, if they are hit with a special move during this time, they will take extra damage.

 +
The game is a one-on-one fighting game similar to ''[[Street Fighter II]]''. It features eight playable characters, battling each other to become the "King of the Circus." Two characters contend, using a variety of moves and special techniques, to drain the other's vitality bar. Battles are played to the best of three rounds. A bomb with a long fuse appears on the bottom of the screen to indicate the time limit; when the fuse burns completely, the bomb explodes, defeating the character with the least vitality remaining.
 +
 
 +
Characters move with {{left}} and {{right}} and crouch with {{down}}. They jump with {{up}} and jump ahead or back with {{upleft}} or {{upright}}. Punches are done with {{X}} (quick), {{Y}} (medium), and {{Z}} (brutal) and kicks are done with {{A}} (quick), {{B}} (medium), and {{C}} (brutal). Light attacks are faster and hard attacks deal more damage. When playing with a standard three-button control pad, {{Start}} toggles between punches and kicks. Each character has a set of special moves performed with special button combinations.
 +
 
 +
Throws and holds are done by holding the D-Pad toward an opponent and pressing a hard punch or kick button (depending on the character used). Attacks, other than grapples, can be blocked by holding the D-Pad away from the opponent. Blocking can be done while standing or crouching. Characters can become dizzy and uncontrollable from being attacked repeatedly. When a character receives heavy damage, the word "KO!" may appear above them. If they are hit with a special move during this time, they take extra damage.
 +
 
 +
===Modes===
 +
The one-player game has the selected character battle through several matches against all of the game's characters, including a few rematches against previously beaten opponents, before facing the game's final enemy, N. Boss. A second player can join with {{Start}} to challenge the first, with the winner continuing the game. There are three difficulty levels (Easy, Medium, and Hard) for computer-controlled opponents and twelve game speeds.
 +
 
 +
There is also a dedicated two-player mode, where players can choose a character, a handicap, and any stage.

Debuting a year after its Super NES counterpart, ''ClayFighter'' on the Mega Drive is roughly the same as on Nintendo's console, but makes a number of graphical cutbacks (particularly in the introduction sequence) to accommodate for the lack of native sprite scaling and rotation. Most of the in-game graphics employ dithering techniques to cater for the Mega Drive's smaller colour palette and lack of semi-transparency support, and the top heads-up-display features a solid black background, masking the top portion of the in-game scenery.

Non-Sega versions

ClayFighter is a fighting game developed by Visual Concepts and published by Interplay in 1994 for the Sega Mega Drive. This game is a port from the Super Nintendo, with several gameplay changes taken from the updated SNES version, ClayFighter: Tournament Edition. The game was most known for its colorful graphics, with each character modeled from clay to give the game its unique look.

Story

A meteor made entirely out of clay crash-lands on the grounds of a humble American circus. The goo from the interstellar object contaminates all of the circus's attractions, transforming them into bizarre caricatures of their former selves, with new superpowers.

Gameplay

ClayFighter, Stages, N. Boss.png

N. Boss

The game is a one-on-one fighting game similar to Street Fighter II. It features eight playable characters, battling each other to become the "King of the Circus." Two characters contend, using a variety of moves and special techniques, to drain the other's vitality bar. Battles are played to the best of three rounds. A bomb with a long fuse appears on the bottom of the screen to indicate the time limit; when the fuse burns completely, the bomb explodes, defeating the character with the least vitality remaining.

Characters move with Left and Right and crouch with Down. They jump with Up and jump ahead or back with Up-left or Up-right. Punches are done with X (quick), Y (medium), and Z (brutal) and kicks are done with A (quick), B (medium), and C (brutal). Light attacks are faster and hard attacks deal more damage. When playing with a standard three-button control pad,  START  toggles between punches and kicks. Each character has a set of special moves performed with special button combinations.

Throws and holds are done by holding the D-Pad toward an opponent and pressing a hard punch or kick button (depending on the character used). Attacks, other than grapples, can be blocked by holding the D-Pad away from the opponent. Blocking can be done while standing or crouching. Characters can become dizzy and uncontrollable from being attacked repeatedly. When a character receives heavy damage, the word "KO!" may appear above them. If they are hit with a special move during this time, they take extra damage.

Modes

The one-player game has the selected character battle through several matches against all of the game's characters, including a few rematches against previously beaten opponents, before facing the game's final enemy, N. Boss. A second player can join with  START  to challenge the first, with the winner continuing the game. There are three difficulty levels (Easy, Medium, and Hard) for computer-controlled opponents and twelve game speeds.

There is also a dedicated two-player mode, where players can choose a character, a handicap, and any stage.

Characters

Note: Move lists assume that the character is facing right. When facing left, Left and Right should be reversed.

P Any punch button
 LP  Light punch
 MP  Medium punch
 HP  Hard punch
K Any kick button

Versions

Debuting a year after its Super NES counterpart, ClayFighter on the Mega Drive is roughly the same as on Nintendo's console, but makes a number of graphical cutbacks (particularly in the introduction sequence) to accommodate for the lack of native sprite scaling and rotation. Most of the in-game graphics employ dithering techniques to cater for the Mega Drive's smaller colour palette and lack of semi-transparency support, and the top heads-up-display features a solid black background, masking the top portion of the in-game scenery. Many voice clips are also missing in the Mega Drive version.

History

Legacy

In 2009, Interplay ported the Mega Drive version of the game to the Virtual Console for the Wii.

In 2022, the game was included in the North American and European versions of the Mega Drive Mini 2.

A remastered version of the game was announced by Interplay in 2015,[7] but it never materialized. Interplay sold the intellectual property rights to the franchise the year after.[8]

A sequel, ClayFighter 2: Judgment Clay, was released for the SNES in early 1995. A Sega 32X version was announced but ultimately cancelled.
