Watch Street Fighter 2 played IRL and meet the coding wizard who made it happen
Abhishek Singh spent a month building the augmented reali𝐆ty version of the 🧜Capcom classic
Demolishing a friend in Street Fighter 2 with the perfect Shinku Hadoken is one thing; doing it on the actual street where they live is a special kind of victory. Hopefully Capcom will make it a reality, thanks to a p🎶rototype augmented reality version of the arcade classic created by technical wizard, coder, and designer Abhishek Singh.
🐷"It took about a month," says Singh of the project. "[There were a] lot of technical challenges with getting the networking and multiplayer aspects working so you could actually have a shared augmented reality space."
This isn't Singh's first project that has gone viral - he's also created a version of Super Mario in🌌 augmented reality, and brought the the horror movie The Ring to life.

As for what inspired the Street Fighter 2 prototype? Childhood memories. "I loved playing it as a kid with my sister on an act📖ual arcade machine," he says. "I was thinking about multiplayer AR experiences, and this popped in my head.
"It also had a really nice 'Mexican standoff' kind of vibe to it, since you are standing right opposite your human opponent, and your virtual gladiators are fighting away right between🧸 you."
Keep up with Singh's work at ▨his , and cross your fingers someone at Capcom is watching his work clos𝐆ely.
