King Harkinian.

[The Answer]

This is my project the King from those awful CD-i games. I know that ytps are not liked around here but please do not let that affect your opinion of the gameplay when he is released.


His gameplay will be that of 6 button King of the fighters style.
Whats done: required sprites, all basic attacks, and 1 special.

[Sinnesloschen]

KOF style is 4 buttons.

His shading looks a bit wonky and his stance could use a bit more of a regal look to it. I'm pretty sure he was more wide in the CD-I games as well. It's a nice start, though.

Mah boi, is this what all true MUGEN warriors strive for?

tell that to GMSpectre, who actually made the sprites

[Orochi Gill]

My question is does he have enough sprites to work with? I remember Kame having heavy issues with Falcon over a lack of sprites.

[The Answer]

First off my mistake for not crediting GMSpectre for the sprites in the OP how rude of me.

Now to address some posts

In GMSpectre's game it is 6 button kof style but in a future update he will more than likely be the traditional 4 buttons

It will be tough but I'm sure there will be enough sprites to work with.

As much as I like that Godzilla-screaming earthquake King Harkinian, this one intrigues me; it would be nice to play as an actual King Harkinian character, rather than two shoulders and a head

Not sure if the King wears trainers or not...

A suggestion, what if he heldin his left hand the glass that he is so infamous for using? When turning around, he could pass it from hand to hand.

OH I have a funny idea on a Hyper Combo! He points towards the opponent, and says "Take him away", the guard from Wand of Gamelon appears, runs past the king and attempt to run into the opponent, dragging them offscreen if he succeeds.
If he succeeds, a lot of cartoonish pummeling sounds are heard, and the opponent are thrown back to the arena.

A special move could have the King use The triforce of Courage to teleport to a different spot (remember, he borrowed in Wand of Gamelon) and would mimic Farore's (Godess of Courage) Wind from OoT.

He could have a special or a basic move where he shugs wine from his glass at the opponent.

Otherwise, I would avoid anything he uses from the Youtube Poop vids and stick to what he got in the CDi games or the canon Zelda games.
Just to avoid overused shit.

That does sound awesome. I believe he's referred to as Fari.

Update bump: Started coding his 2nd special move and adjusted his clsn boxes to be more kof like. Next to do is figure out how to stop him from crouching while running, and code his 3rd special move.

You can always override state 100 and give it no control. You can check out this topic for info regarding this issue:

[The Answer]

Thanks for that I'ma give it a read. Small update: king no longer crouches while running.

[The Answer]

Bump for progress I guess. Sorry for no updates I've hit a slump because I have no clue how to code his supers so if anybody has suggestions for supers please post them.

[The Answer]

3rd bump but its for progress.
I finished the kings 2nd special move after I finish his 3rd its on to supers any suggestions?

[MR. IBZS II]

Didn't one person create a KOF game with him in it? If so, that could be insperation, as he had a good moveset.

[The Answer]

That game is where I got the sprites from.

[Mugento]

nice work
this project is exclusive for your game?

by sprites looks good but could have a demo or something?

[The Answer]

I'm not making a game its a stand alone release. I'll have an alpha version once I finish his 3rd special move and maybe a public beta once his supers are done and I added his voice.

[MR. IBZS II]

Will he be YTP based or something else in his attacks?
