EP1 A Beautiful Accident Jan 29, 2021

Our story begins in the misty far away days of the 1990s - the golden age of console gaming. It was in this rush to produce new and engaging multiplayer experiences that Nintendo created A Beautiful Accident - Super Smash Brothers Melee. The ostensibly casual and kid-oriented game would reveal itself to be far deeper than any fighting game in the world - and soon fostered a dedicated community of competitive players around it.

EP2 The Kid Jan 29, 2021

Mango’s abilities confound his opponents, but his victories are undeniable. With a clear dominance of the game, Mango shifts the center of the Melee universe to the West Coast of the USA and his scrappy Norwalk neighborhood. Across the Atlantic, a Peach player from Europe starts to make waves; some even say he is the best in the world. International tensions run high as the news breaks that he will be traveling to America for the first time. When Armada pushes Mango to limits he’s never faced, will The Kid from Norwalk break?

EP3 The Limiter Jan 29, 2021

With Armada devising a secret weapon to unleash upon his return to America, PP emerges as America’s last best hope.

EP4 Fire on the Mountain Jan 29, 2021

Years of competition have taught Armada that you can’t get to your goal right away - you must earn it with hard work. But after constant defeats, Armada’s confidence in ever finding a victory in America begins to wane. In his time of need, a little piece of high school wisdom on a forgotten mural reminds the Swede of the fire which drives him on. With Mango making a return using the game’s fastest character and all eyes on a massive summer tournament, Armada sees his chance to finally seize the Fire on the Mountain top.

After years of struggling against Mango both in-game and out of it, PPMD takes aim at his one time teacher. Seeking to understand what makes the kid from Norwalk so different, PP begins a journey into The Tao of Smash with a new teacher - Cactuar.
