As highlighted by Twitter user <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ryugainai\">@ryugainai<\/a>, there are multiple animations in the game that look remarkably similar to move sets in well known fighting games like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/snes\/street_fighter_alpha_2\">Street Fighter Alpha<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/neogeo\/samurai_shodown\">Samurai Shodown<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/neogeo\/fatal_fury\">Fatal Fury<\/a>.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"object object-tweet\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p><span lang=\"ja\" dir=\"ltr\">\u25a0 TMNT \u30e0\u30fc\u30d6\u30ea\u30b9\u30c8 \ud83d\udc22<br \/>\u3010CAPCOM\u7de8\u3011 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/2HQA4jY9uV\">pic.twitter.com\/2HQA4jY9uV<\/a><\/span>\u2014 \u3069\u3046\u3052\u304d\u3002 (@ryugainai) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ryugainai\/status\/1537936884793581568?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 17, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/aside>\n<aside class=\"object object-tweet\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p><span lang=\"ja\" dir=\"ltr\">\u25a0 TMNT \u30e0\u30fc\u30d6\u30ea\u30b9\u30c8 \ud83d\udc22<br \/>\u3010CAPCOM\u7de8\u2461\u3011 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/0RrKdk5OtK\">pic.twitter.com\/0RrKdk5OtK<\/a><\/span>\u2014 \u3069\u3046\u3052\u304d\u3002 (@ryugainai) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ryugainai\/status\/1538311850630098944?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 19, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/aside>\n<p>The pessimists among us might wonder why Tribute Games didn&#8217;t just create completely original animations for all of the turtles&#8217; move sets, but in our opinion, we appreciate the humble nods to the fighting games that clearly inspired Shredder&#8217;s Revenge. It&#8217;s a perfect example of the love and passion that went into this project, and how much the developers at Tribute Games love the fighting genre.<\/p>\n<p>In other news, if you&#8217;re enjoying Shredder&#8217;s Revenge and are perhaps looking forward to some extra DLC, you might want to temper your expectations. Although publisher Dotemu hasn&#8217;t ruled it out entirely, there are currently no plans to add extra content to the game.<\/p>\n<p><em>What do you think of the similarities between the animations in Shredder&#8217;s Revenge and that of classic fighting games?
