If you’ve ever played old-school Dragon Ball Z Budokai games on PS2, you might be familiar with Budokai 3’s Dragon Rush system. During my childhood I found this system fascinating that you could activate epic cinematic moves in a side scrolling fighter.

Instead of revisiting an old game, I figured I’d take a shot at animating Dragon Rush myself while using game footage as reference. I’ve only just started but it’s turning out pretty well.

Note, I only matched the frame count for the camera shots. Other than that, I pretty much eyeballed the reference.
