I present to you...
Garfieldfan's Factory!

This, obviously, is where I show off what I'm working on, be it a solo effort or a collab with one or more authors. Only characters will be shown off here (either via images or through Streamable showcases, which you can always find through the characters' Recent Showcase section), not stages or the like... at least not normally, as I might drop a small peak of those here and there.

Having followed part of the process, I can say that the sprite work here looks really cool.

Never give your cat hot sauce. It won't end well.

New showcase is out! This shows off two of Garfield's hypers: Chili con Flame and Caped Avenger.

Have a proper peek at Cat Cannonball. The move also now hits twice, once going into the air, the second coming down. Move isn't completely finished but works as it should.

Just started on Remote Possibilities earlier today. Move is in a very rough state right now, but at least I can show off something from it.

The alarm clock, first part of Remote Possibilities, and a lazy cat's worst enemy. After activating, it covers a decent range, but is relatively harmless and puts opponents in the dizzy state for a short period of time, opening them up for a combo. To compensate for it being harmless, however, the move is completely unblockable.

Since coding the main part of the move, I've made it to where Remote Possibilities as a whole cancels out when you hop back or if the opponent's life is 0, to prevent waiting longer for the winpose to kick in.

Here is the initial preview of the move and here is a showcase of the updates I made to the move since finishing it (including cancelling out from a hyper, which I was planning to do before the other two ways to cancel the move anyway).

Been a while, huh?

Ever since the beta came out, I've been hard at work following feedback, and one bit in particular from PotS had me reworking Cat Pounce. So far, all I can give you a screenshot of the move (which looks unchanged because of the misaligned hitspark and weird spacing between Garfield and KFM) and I hope you all like what I'm doing with the move... if I can execute it correctly. See y'all for Beta 1.25 (which was going to be Beta 1.1 until I decided to do most, if not all, bits of feedback I've gotten).

Looks like Garfield became so happy, he's able to twirl around in the air.

Yeah, Beta 2 is in progress, so it'd only be fair to start giving him new stuff. Here's a peek at the new air version of Happy Day, and here is a short combo involving said upcoming move.

While there still has to be things left to add for Garfield before he's 100% ready for release, it's time to answer a question I've been asking myself for a while:
Where the hell do I go from here?

Well, here's the current state of things:

Garfield:
Main parts of this update (Air Happy Day and What's On Now?) are complete but need some additional polish. I'm also doing several things to make him feel much more like a complete character... to the point where what'd be left is bugfixes and one last hyper. While I will be doing bugfixes anyway, I'd wanna take a break from him after this beta, which leads us to...


Jenny Wakeman:
My second collab with Wlan and also the second Nick character I'll be doing. There isn't much to talk about here at the moment as there isn't a lot of sprites made for her yet, but once I truly get her off the ground, she'll be added in the current WIPs section. But I don't wanna limit myself to just making cartoon characters, so in comes...


Harley Quinn:
Unlike the other two, this one's pretty much going to be a complete overhaul edit of Batzarro/Alexziq's version. Had a whole moveset for her planned and everything. However, what the hardest part here is going to be is recoding a lot of everything and taking measures to reduce her filesize. You'll probably start to see progress on her in the current WIPs section after the next Garfield beta drops, but just know she's only partially started.

There are also a couple other plans (that aren't current pipe dreams) but those are on the backburner until I solve their issues or after significant progress is made on one thing or the other above. There might also be a chance those plans will be scrapped as well. But still, at the moment, the above three are main priority.
