3D Fighting Game Developer – Android LAN Multiplayer

I’m looking for an experienced 3D game developer or small development team to build an Android 1v1 fighting game inspired by classic 3D fighting games such as Virtua Fighter.

Main Requirements
3D fighting game development
Android support
Responsive, low-latency fighting controls
Character movement, attacks, blocking, throws, hit detection, combos, etc.
3D character models, rigging, and fighting animations
Frame-based combat system
Smooth 60 FPS performance
2-player multiplayer over local Wi-Fi/LAN
No internet connection required for the initial multiplayer version
Local room/host and join functionality
Most Important

The main challenge is the fighting engine and responsiveness, not matchmaking or MMR.

I need someone who understands how to make a fighting game feel precise and responsive, including animation timing, hitboxes/hurtboxes, attack frames, input handling, and low-latency multiplayer.

Experience with rollback networking, deterministic simulation, or fighting games is a strong advantage.

Engine

I am open to Godot, Unity, Unreal Engine, or another suitable engine. Please recommend the best option based on the requirements.

Initial Prototype

The first milestone would be:

1 character + 1 opponent + 1 arena + basic fighting + Android + 2-player LAN multiplayer.

If the prototype works well, the project can continue with additional characters, stages, combat mechanics, ranking, MMR, and other features.

Please Include
Examples of relevant 3D/fighting games you have developed
Demo/video/GitHub links if available
Your experience with LAN multiplayer
Your recommended engine
Estimated timeline and budget
Whether you are an individual developer or a team

Please only apply if you have relevant 3D game development experience.
