The most famous of Mugen's creations was a game simply titled "Mugen". It was a free-for-all fighting game featuring a vast array of characters, from classic video game icons to original creations. The game was a labor of love, with Mugen pouring their heart and soul into every detail.

The next night, NoScope arrived at the warehouse, their heart racing with anticipation. As they entered, they saw a figure shrouded in shadows.

The hidden mode, known as "Eternal Mode", allowed players to create their own characters and engage in a never-ending battle royale. As players progressed through Eternal Mode, they'd unlock new characters, stages, and even storylines.
