Early development
Following the release of the original Super Smash Flash in 2006, which occurred shortly after Nintendo first announced Super Smash Bros. Brawl, the game enjoyed a huge popularity and demand for a sequel suddenly grew. The game's creator, Gregory McLeod, decided to make a new Super Smash Flash game loosely based on Super Smash Bros. Brawl, appropriately named Super Smash Flash 2. On September 23, 2007, McLeod made this announcement on the McLeodGaming Forums so its members could provide him with sprites, effects, and sounds to make the new game. Alongside this announcement, it was revealed that the game would be released as a public demo to be iterated on with progressive updates in order to give players an early look at the progress being made on the game.

Although much of the game's development remained private, various aspects were revealed early in development. For example, the game was set to play much more closely to the official Super Smash Bros. series than its predecessor, with new mechanics such as full movesets of standard and special moves, shielding, ledges, and a more accurate damage and knockback system. Notably, the game was also set to feature Final Smashes similar to those in Brawl, which was still yet to release at the time. The earliest known gameplay of SSF2 was shown in a video titled "SSF2 Video Demo 1" (now titled "How To Play #1"), which demonstrated the game's physics and various mechanics.

The game's planned playable character roster was also revealed early in development. The majority of characters playable in the original Super Smash Flash were set to make a return, with exceptions including Young Link, InuYasha, and Mr. Incredible. Several newcomers would be characters from the official Super Smash Bros. games, such as series staples Peach, Bowser, Donkey Kong, Yoshi, Fox, Falco, and Ness, as well as then-confirmed Brawl newcomers including Diddy Kong, Wario, Zero Suit Samus, Pit, and Snake. Some newcomers would hail from other series already represented in SSF, including Kratos, Sasuke, and Rock Lee. Others would hail from fully new franchises, including Sora and Riku from ', Goku and Vegeta from ', and Ichigo and Renji from . Additionally, two new fan characters from McLeodGaming Forums users would be made playable alongside Blade and Blue, including Azrael from Phratt and Spikeman from Spikeman.
