Final Fantasy VII: Re-Imagined

About

Final Fantasy VII: Re-Imagined is a fan-made action game that strips away the story and magic of the original, focusing on fast-paced 2D side-scrolling combat. Play as Cloud or Tifa as they battle through a simplified version of Midgar, leaping over obstacles and dodging enemies in a style reminiscent of classic arcade brawlers. The controls emphasize quick movement and combo-heavy attacks, with minimal slowdown between fights. The project stands out for its nostalgic approach to a beloved IP, even if it lacks the polish or depth of modern remakes. It's short, a few hours at most, but fans of 90s-style platformers might appreciate the breakneck pace. With a 7.2/10 average on GameRankings, it’s clear the game isn’t perfect. But for those curious about how FFVII might have looked in the Streets of Rage mold, it’s a brief, punchy experiment.
