Hello patrons! First, thank you for your continued support on Fightcade, even during our "hold" status. That helped cover some server expenses for a while, but recently we have had time to go over the project again and we are working very hard on the next release, which we think you will really like. This includes a new and refactored emulator (based on FBNeo), with an improved GGPO implementat...

As a "Hardcore Gamer" (or higher) patron you'll be the first to test o...
