Here I'd like to provide a few graphics, courtesy of professional illustrator Michael Duron (www.locoduck.com) which are meant to be one of the key elements
that would set Ultimate Wrestling Challenge apart from other wrestling games - that is to say, the LOOK. Where other games keep going photo-realistic, UWC goes the cartoon/cariacatured approach:

Main Screen (Mock-Up)


Character Design: "Mr. Destiny" Alistair Troy, UWC World Heavyweight Champion

At the last UWC supercard "Endgame," longtime champion Augustus Troy IV defended his title for the last time against his fiercest rival and former ally, Ares.
If he retained the title, he would be granted one final request in honor of his retirement."The Trojan General" used every trick in the book to frustrate "The God of War,"
ultimately retaining his crown. It was then that he shocked the entire wrestling world by handing the World Heavyweight Title to his son Alistair!

Character Design: MANTIS, UWC TV Champion

The mysterious masked superstar MANTIS has been on fire since defeating Johnny Mojo for the Television Championship. Don't let anyone tell you he's only third rate though,
for he takes his title VERY seriously; as he's said on more than one occasion: "Make no mistake - when you turn on your TV, I'm the best you're gonna see!"

Character Design: "Live & Direct," UWC World Tag Team Champions

"Direct Hit" Javier Curtis and "Live" Omar Johnson - there isn't a more electrifying duo in the entire United Wrestling Council. And it was no small feat in winning those titles either, besting
super-heavyweights like Ares and Gabriel Black with their speed and devastating teamwork. Mr. Black can tell you from experience - their tandem finisher, "Rock the Mic" is not to be
underestimated!

Versus Screen (Mock-Up)

Hello Taka, Chad...

Actually, I have to confess that I am chiefly a creative writer, and I have been learning about the necessities of game development as I go along, by corresponding with other developers as I've met them. So to be honest, I wouldn't know what language would be best to make this happen...yet.

Just a tiny little bump...don't mind me. :-)
