Hello steemit community, gamers, geeks today I want to share with you my experience with one of the most interesting games that I have played throughout my life called. Clayfighter 63 ⅓ or as I call it (Clayfighter 64).a game of the genre fight developed by interplay released in the 90s for the console Nintendo 64. This caught my attention from the first time I tried it, honestly, it seemed a joke rather than a fighting game, for its playful and unusual style dealing with skills and characters. Its shape made from a substance similar to plasticine, by its translation into Spanish then I realized that it was really clay. With very flashy and very crazy combos and final attacks, called Claytality.

A game full of parodies and ridicules to many important titles in the video game industry that is in my opinion clayfighters, but the fact that it is a "copy" of titles like Mortal Kombat or Streetfighters does not make a bad game, everything otherwise gathers characteristics of each of these aforementioned games adding a sense of humor and fun, this entertaining game has only 2 modes that are arcade and versus.

The gameplay is very fluid for the time in which it was developed, with combos sequences similar to killer instinct and how to execute them equally, something a bit difficult if you are not adept at fighting games, the only thing that could say that I did not like about this game is that it did not come with a mode of practice with a list of movements to learn each sequence, discarding this everything else was to my liking

Very original characters and a special guest that some will remember if you are a fan of platform games, Earthworm Jim.

The worm, space hero of the platforms now in a fighting game, something that I like a lot because it is consistent with the theme of the game adapting perfectly to this.

this title has a total of 12 playable characters, initially 9 and other 3 that are unlocked by cheats or ending the game, it should be noted that it is very short since it has no other way than the arcade. A very varied repertory of characters one more crazy than the other, each with its characteristic movements, specials, combos, and claytality.

Bad Mr. Frosty

I could say that he is the emblem of the game, is a snowman with a bad attitude and a winter fanatic. It is said that initially, he was an ordinary snowman without life until one day a comet "clayterian" hit him transforming him into what he is now

After analyzing the content of the game, sound gameplay, graphics among others, I will give my opinion of this by ignoring all the bad reviews that may have been during its release, since these were granted by great video game critics, and I am not one of them this is my point as a gamer.

CONCLU.png

For me, Clayfighter 64 it fills certain standards that are important as the gameplay and the handling of characters is very constant and fluid the animation in 3D may not be the best but it is acceptable for me, the character design seems very original and thematic of the game that is very funny, the effects of sounds in spite of not being the best are cool and the narrator's voice made it extremely funny when executing a claytality or high magnitude combo(Lets get ready to Crumble) clearly parodying the aforementioned titles, this game has brought a lot of laughs during my childhood and I went such a long time without playing it that nowadays I decided to download it and remember all those good moments.

It is not the best fighting game I have played but at least for me, in particular, it is playable, despite the lack of content, and that clearly does not stand out in any category.

That was all my gamer experience with this game i hope you all enjoyed reading and remembering good times with this crazy game.
