Hello. It's been a while!
I've been working on a new char besides Kula, since I was bored of making just one character and needed something to alternate between. In this case, I've chosen Carol, (next char after Hinata).
About Kula, I've made progress finishing her get-hits and a couple of normal attacks; the priority now is to finish her normals. Although I still have a lot left to finish.
As for Carol, i'm using Dampir's sprites as a base. Surprisingly it didn't take me long to make the anims unlike Kula. So she is around 50% finished. These are some of the many I did:
Oc, some of these need to be polished once I try to finish her set. The missing ones are:
- All gethits
- Aerial normal attacks
- Some crouch attacks
- Naughty Ball (Super)
- Spinning Top (Special)
- Intro and Winposes (Only one winpose has been done)
And the following additions/features:
- Intro against Tiffany
- Rainbow Cyclone (Super)
- Some new normals
Spoiler: Some details about the additions (click to see content)
- Intro against Tiffany, Carol escapes from Joker while Tiffany charges her Groovy Punch to the max. Once Carol lands, Tiffany hits Joker and sends him flying.
- Rainbow Cyclone:
The execution is kinda similar of Lilith's Splendor Love but those are not the required sprites. Here, Carol performs a series of upward spins, which releases energy that transforms into explosions as shown in the image above, and the idea is that she uses a dancer's ribbon instead of the ball. I will keep this in mind as long as I don't fail with the ideal anim.
- New normals:
I only used one reference to make a wip HK
In this case I used Madiesha from Tough Guys as a base (for the moment it'll be discarded since it needs the author's permission). I wonder if there will be another 2D character who use the gymnastic style in order to be able to complete her set of normals.
About the coding, I've made a lot of progress. It's only missing Spinning Top, half of the normals and throws and the rest is about sprite replacements. BTW, this is her move list:
