A phenomenal fighting game character means nothing without an atmospheric arena to fight in. Designing or modifying stages in M.U.G.E.N and IKEMEN GO gives you complete control over parallax scrolling, music immersion, camera boundaries, and structural floor mechanics. This reference page covers manual scratch-building, community automation toolsets, and an incredibly simple template-swap workflow.

1. Mikazuki's Fast-Track Asset Swap Method

If you don't want to build a script configuration completely from scratch, editing an existing template stage is the fastest route to highly clean results. Use this streamlined pipeline:

2. Understanding Stage Architecture

Every stage package utilizes two essential foundation tracks to project assets perfectly within coordinates:

3. Recommended Video Creation Tutorials

To watch advanced stage building, parallax code tracking, and asset manipulation performed directly on-screen, consult these community video walkthroughs:

4. Stage Automation Utilities

Writing individual line coordinates for hundreds of background layers can be incredibly tedious. Leverage these external development tools to accelerate your workflow:

• 🛠️ Automatic Stage Creation Tool An incredibly powerful legacy utility that automates the generation of your .def coordinate positioning maps and strips images into the proper .sff structural format. By inputting your raw panoramic image background components, it processes standard coordinates automatically, saving hours of manual trial-and-error axis tracking.
