Omega Ruin is a Umbrella game by Toroko for The V². It is a fighting game, although more in the vein of Street Fighter or King of Fighters.
Gameplay[]
Although the gameplay of Omega Ruin is closer to Street Fighter and King of Fighters, it doesn't opt for the regular four button system, instead adopting a two button system similar to that seen in the Super Smash Bros. Each character has four standard attacks (Neutral, Side, Up, and Down standard attacks) and four special attacks (Neutral, Side, Up, and Down special attacks) to use, using either the 
for standard attacks or 
for specials, as well as a directional input. Characters can also jump using the triggers or the up directional movement on the pad. Players use 
to block, and 
to unleash high damaging hyper moves when their gauge is filled. The player can taunt using the directional pad.
Omega Ruin uses a fighting format consisting of 3-on-3 team based matches dubbed the Team Battle System. Instead of choosing a single character, the player instead selects three characters, which become the player's team so to speak. Before each match, the players choose the order in which each of their team member enters the battle. When the match begins, the members chosen to go first on their respective teams will fight. When one character is defeated, the following member of the same team will take his or her place, while the character on the other team will have a small portion of their life restored (if energy was lost during the previous round).
Modes[]
- Versus - 3v3 battles in any stage you desire with levelable CPU opponents or a friend.
- Arcade Mode - The bulk of the game really. You will face opponents from the roster, usually randomized. Bosses will sometimes show up to challenge the fighters. Every character has their own Arcade endings, which are pretty distinct.
Story[]
A evil empress has sent a ton of characters that she dubs "Wonder Icons" to a hellish tournament to fight to the death. Sitting on a throne made of black tentacles, The Empress has the Wonder Icons have to battle to save their worlds and selves or their worlds and themselves will be destroyed.
Characters[]
The character descriptions are written by Nikki, who serves as the humble servant of The Empress. Nikki seems to have a liking for most of the Wonder Icons, although she seems to be rather breezy with the popular ones.
Starting Characters[]
This starting roster is all icons from all over the place! What a cast!
| Starting Characters | |||
| Character | Information | ||
|---|---|---|---|

Mario attacks with a hammer for most his standard moves, with his specials using a fireball, throwing his hat as a boomerang-like projectile, using the cape as a upper diagonal melee attack, and using a ground stomp. Hypers

While his attacks are rather weak, Sonic uses his speed to make up for it. Sonic has minimal lag to his moves, making them somewhat hard to punish if he whiffs. His standard attacks aren't anything to write home about, but his specials include a homing attack that can lock onto opponents that proves to be rather handy. Hypers

 |
Crash Bandicoot is a rather unique character as, while he has more or less average range in his melee attacks, his Crate Toss and Fruit Bazooka allows him to outzone numerous other characters with surprising efficiency. Crash's mobility is remarkable as well, since he can use his Spin Attack to maneuver around the stage and put pressure onto his opponents as well as recover with ease with his Jetpack. Hypers

 |
Doom Slayer uses rather powerful attacks, with a run and kill game style. Doom Slayer uses a gun for projectiles and when he runs out of bullets, he has to use a chainsaw that can cut through his foes and drop ammo for his guns. Doom Slayer can use a variety of guns like the Unmaker, Shotgun, and the BFG9000, which he can switch between. Some of these guns are more powerful but may come with more drawbacks like speed and funkier hitboxes. Hypers

Megaman uses mostly projectiles in his attacks, using either Mega Buster pellets or charged energy shots. His special moves use a variety of abilities from his past bosses, such as a rotating shield made of skulls, a flame blast, or a freezing slash. Megaman can also utilize a slide to quickly move while doing damage. Hypers
| ||
 |
Pac-Man has low jumps and mostly uses melee attacks like a butt-bounce that he can do after a jump or a "Rev-Roll" that lets him spin and attack with quick speed. He can do a kick flip in the air, use pellets as a projectile, and create a line of pellets to fly around with. Hypers
| ||
 |
Kat is a rather unique character in that she can mess with gravity, her's and her opponent's. Using zero gravity techniques, Kat tends to be airborne, which is unusual for this kind of game. She can use her kicks to get fairly long ranged melee attacks, as well as summon debris to shoot at opponents. Hypers

Stages[]
All these stages are, in the lore of this game at least, holographic hard light representations of the home worlds of the Wonder Icons.
Bosses[]
During Arcade mode, sometimes bosses just show up and you gotta defeat them. They're also available to defeat in Boss Rush mode when you defeat them.
Arcade Endings[]
A description of every character's ending from the Arcade Mode. Yes, this might as well be fanfiction. What site did you think you were on?
| Endings | |||
| Character | Information | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Mario | Mario defeats The Empress with the help of his team and heads home, restoring the worlds of those who were destroyed using 1-UP Mushrooms from the Mushroom Kingdom. Afterwards, Nick Fury shows up and asks him if he'd like to be part of a Avengers initative to take down the mad titan Thanos. Mario refuses, but shows up to fight Thanos anyway, tossing Cappy at him to capture Thanos and shape the universe into a giant castle, disposing of Thanos into space afterwards. Rosalina and Mario rule over the universe as a king and queen, happily. | ||
| Sonic | Sonic defeats The Empress with the help of his team and heads home, restoring the worlds of those who were destroyed using power of the Chaos Emeralds. He goes back home but finds that Eggman has taken over his world while he was gone. Sonic decides to finally end Eggman, killing him and restoring Eggman's damage with his millionth ring. Sonic decides to take over what was left of Eggman's empire, as these areas would be in worse economic collapse without some kind of ruler. One night, he finds Rouge trying to take the treasure from his treasure room and puts her in prison, although makes frequent trips to the prison. Rouge and Sonic fall in love in secret, eventually getting secretly married. | ||
| Crash Bandicoot | Crash defeats The Empress with the help of his team and heads home, restoring the worlds of those who were destroyed using power of the Power Crystals. Crash returns and lives a rather peaceful life for the most part until Frieza shows up. Crash journeys to Mobius, where he gets help from King Sonic to use the Chaos Emeralds to fight off Frieza, although Frieza steals the Chaos Emeralds himself during the battle. Crash Bandicoot suddenly goes Super Sayian (Super Bandicoot?) destroying Frieza with his new found power. In the Dragonball universe, Goku is told the news, and proclaims he has a "new rival". | ||
| Doom Slayer | Doom Slayer defeats The Empress with the help of his team, going way overboard with the kill to insure she stays dead. Doom Slayer doesn't bother to restore the worlds he destroyed, seeing them as causalities of a greater cause. Doom Slayer takes over the tournament and revamps it into a training ground for a army of Doom Slayers trained by himself and Nikki, raiding the various hells of the worlds he knows about thanks to the tournament with his squads. | ||
| Master Chief | Master Chief defeats The Empress with the help of his team and heads home, restoring the worlds with Forerunner tech. Master Chief blows up the tournament (sans Nikki) and walks away, returning to his home world. Master Chief ultimately retires from fighting and becomes Master Chef, working with Cooking Mama and Cortana to create tasty dishes to people across the entire universe. He soon finds fierce competition with Kirby, leading to Kirby: Reach. | ||
| Megaman | Megaman defeats The Empress with the help of his team and heads home, restoring the worlds using his copy of The Empress' ability. Megaman returns home to his family, surprisingly not dealing with another Wily attack. However, it is not long until something of Wily's does awaken, known as Zero. An event known as the Cataclysm happens, where Zero murders everyone, although they do put up a good fight but are ultimately unable to stop him. Toad Man ends up shutting Zero down in a suicide attack, which would lead to the events of Megaman X. | ||
| Kat | Kat defeats The Empress with the help of her team and heads home, restoring the worlds using The Empress' energy and Dusty and Xii, however in the process they are both sacrificed. Kat returns to her home world with Raven, and without their Gaurdians are not helpful against the Nevi. The Doom Slayer squads manage to take care of it though, and Raven and Kat live happily together as a couple. Interesting, a dog and a lizard that looks similar to Dusty and Xii appear at the end of the cutscenes, implying they may have reincarnated. | ||
| Goku | Goku defeats The Empress with the help of his team and heads home, using the Dragon Balls to restore the worlds. Goku returns to his world, but ten years pass with no battles, no dangers... just tournament battles that never go awry. During this time, Goku has been battling Crash Bandicoot and learning of his strengths and limits. He also begins to train the reincarnation of Buu, Uub into becoming a protector of the universe. | ||
| Spider-Man | Spider-Man defeats The Empress with the help of his team and heads home, using the Infinity Stones to restore the worlds. Spider-Man returns to his world, and rests. The next day, Mysterio attacks the city and Spider-Man attempts to stop him but in the process sees memories of a past... a past that was erased by the demon Mephisto. After telling Mary Jane, Mary Jane tells him that a small part of her always knew and the two go into hell and fight Mephisto with Venom, Silk, and Dr. Octopus. Mary Jane and Spider-Man defeat Mephisto and restore their marriage in the process. Back to being a married man, Peter Parker eventually retires after losing his leg to a battle with the Green Goblin. Mary Jane and Peter have a kid known only as May Parker, who eventually becomes Spider-Girl. | ||

Trivia[]
- Mario's third level hyper references God Mario, a infamous article on Fantendo for it's overpowered capabilities.
- Sonic's Super Sonic hyper oddly references the Fleetway Sonic, who is a evil twist of the Super Sonic concept.
- Each ending takes place in alternate timeline, although many of the same events happen in each regardless of who restored or didn't restore the universes. Each timeline is different because it falls on one single character to restore the worlds, as they are the only ones who have the possible means to.
- Sonic's ending references some of the events that occurred in the Archie Sonic universe, namely that Sonic kills Eggman and his millionith ring restoring some of the damage that had happened.
- Crash Bandicoot's ending humorously references this mod for Dragon Ball Xenoverse.
- Megaman's ending references The Cataclysm, a fan theory that states Zero killed the classic cast of the Megaman games during the gap between the classic megaman games and Megaman X. This theory has been officially shot down before, and seems to have originated from the Bob and George webcomic.
- Goku's ending is a reference to the last episode of Dragon Ball Z's initial run and the current end of the Dragon Ball timeline (as GT is no longer canon).
