There is two roads to take.
Like, for example, there is a slideshow (That you can click through) that has text to back up a storyline (Like a visual novel, without the hentai or loli). Maybe it could be like fight club or maybe it could be to save a girl, or something really creative!
already done, unofficial Toribash story

If the game has no AI what would be a purpose of a story mode?
Toribash has no AI that is capable to fight and react to moves that player is doing.
So, you watch a 10 min story to be pitted against a dummy that moves one hand and then you kill it?
Veeeeeeery interesting.
Not to mention that to be able to code AI for TB we would need some genius from NASA. Are you gonna pay his salary so you have something that maybe you and other guys (that can be counted on the fingers of one hand) consider interesting?
There is a way to have this (in a way), but it would include some mayor overhaul of the game engine.
Guess what?
It ain't gonna happen in this century.
I'd prefer challenge mode.
Like "Get to X in < 1000 frames", "Make it out alive" (being put initially in a bad position), "Kill uke in less that 300 frames".
Imagine an uke running away on its own and you have to catch a weapon and throwing it at him ?
Did u forget there was a challenge uke mode in fight school ther is tht kind of AI there vins84 -.-
I'd like to combine your idea with mine:
What about the story mode is in 2d,you kill people and recieve tc lesser than 2k or extra 100 games free or something like that.
