This is a update of the original Mugen game for this year. Tested on XP no errors and uses controllers via USB, one I was having trouble uploading so, enjoy!
It is officially the first game in The King of Fighters Series. The Story presumably takes place at some point around the first few events of the Ash Saga in the KoF series (2003 to XI most likely). Gustab Munchausen, an antagonist that hosted a previous tournament in The King of Fighters EX2: Howling Blood, plans to host another to destroy Kyo Kusanagi and Iori Yagami out of revenge for ruining his schemes. To do this, he plans on obtaining the battle data of numerous strong fighters in order to complete 'his masterpiece.' To further help his efforts, he creates powerful numbered clones of Kyo and Iori, as well as creating cloned bodies of primary enemies of past KoF Tournaments; these being Rugal, Goenitz, Krizalid, Original Zero, and Igniz. After channeling their souls into these bodies to revive them, he explains his plans to destroy Kyo and Iori and urges them to take part in this scheme of taking revenge. While the preparations are being made and as the tournament is about to begin, Gustab watches over the events as his right-hand man, Psyqhical, gathers battle data for their now unfolding plans.
