Bruce Lee FINISHED!

The goal was to make the ultimate Bruce Lee char for MUGEN.  This is a Fei-Long edit.  He has the One-Inch Punch and some other custom moves.  But the best part is that he has nunchuks.  You can toggle between them and unarmed combat. 


You can see how he plays here:

I made him to go with the Enter the Dragon game I put together (it's part compilation, part edits).


Randomish

I see SFA Fei-Long SF2 Fei-long and Hon Fu and his pant size changes wildly
Welcome to the House of Fighting.

Count Monte

Yep, but if you take SFA Fei-Long's head and legs and paste them over Hon Fu, just keeping his body and arms (for the nunchucks) it'll work -- I'm terrible at Frankenspriting, and I can't seem to get the files into MUGEN without major color loss etc.  It's not an impossible job, there's only 6 nunchuck attacks, maybe 30-40 sprites.  You don't even have to draw, just cut and paste mostly.  And I have the raw sprites to send, in the proper palettes.

Smogade; now with more fiber!

Yeah. I can rip some sounds off of my XBox game for you...

I am 12 years old.

I know you know it. You know it. But, what is "it"?

cypherdivine

Yeah looks too much like Fei Long. Maybe combine some of Law from Tekken in there too. And the stomp should be the finisher of a combo after the opponent is on the ground. Maybe add a palette of Kato from Green Hornet would be cool!

Quick update on Bruce...  The beta with nunchucks was released a few months ago.  In the meantime, I've added a custom fatality that he can do against Mr. Han ONLY - just like the end of the movie where he kicks him into the spear.

And another fatality he can do against anyone, which ends with the stomp:)

Here's a video showing both:

Those don't look much like Fatalities.
Or at least the 2nd one doesn't really.

And the double kick at the start of the first round looks really overpowered.
There should also be a vs Chuck Norris exclusive fatality.
Where Bruce snaps his neck.

Count Monte

These are Enter the Dragon specific fatalities.  The one vs Han is how he kills him at the end of the movie, and the jump and stomp is how he killed O'Hara (I did embellish with the combo hits prior so it would be a little flashy).

Great idea about the Chuck Norris one.  With the fatality system in place, as many as we want can be added.  Double kick IS overpowered, so I can play through Arcade mode on my Enter the Dragon beta game through to the end quickly.  I'll tone it down prior to the release.

What kind of gameplay would Lee have?
Street Fighter Alpha?
Street Fighter 2?
Street Fighter 3?
KOF?

MVC?
CVS?
SVC?
Custom?
or are you aiming for something not listed?

Count Monte

Currently he's mostly Street Fighter Alpha mixed with custom.  Since Fei Long was used as the base... it doesn't seem right to take moves AWAY from Bruce, so instead it's about giving him a lot of options.

You can toggle between unarmed and nunchuck mode with the press of one button.  And now, obviously, he has finishing moves (Mortal Kombat system).

Whatever will make him fun to play, there's no strict rules (after all Bruce's philosophy was that there shouldn't be a rigid style -- Jeet Kune Do took things from every other style -- so it makes sense his video game self would do the same)

looks unnatural
i'd study how namco flattered him with law
lee moves were stiff and fierce.
quick to the point of nonexistant
still feels too much fei
keep workin on it

Fatality huh? Hope this consists of Lee snapping the opponent's neck while the camera zooms in on his face.

Count Monte

The thing about Fei Long is that he is supposed to be Bruce Lee, they got as close as they could with his look and poses without being able to be sued by Lee's widow.  We are working on making his hair black and some other nice surprises. 
And the One-Inch punch, the stomp, and some other custom Bruce moves have been added, and I'm all for adding more custom moves -- whatever will make him more Bruce I'm all for it.

I like it, but yeah still too Fei Long-ish, I could make a suggestion to separate him a bit along with the hair upgrade idea. Give him Asian eyes, literally remove the white eye area and draw a horizontal line for that Asian look. Doing that it might make him different enough to be called Bruce Lee, just an idea...

I really like the nun chuck add-on, great character so far! Keep it up! I recently saw Dragon: the Bruce Lee Story, boy it was pretty good and a character in his image would be awesome.

I'm with you on the eyes question, and I also I really like the nun chuck add-on

isn't that a lil racist? lol but regardless of this wip.. i have to agree with the comment made about bruce lee's fighting style.. Fei Long was never meant to be Bruce Lee even tho Fei Long is using Jeet Kune Do it's not Bruce Lee's Actual Style of fighting.. Bruce made his strikes shorter.. less traditional technique i don't see it with this.. not yet anyways. plus his stance was more relaxed than Fei Long's

altho it looks nice it just looks like another Fei Long to me with nunchucks lol alot needs to be changed to have it resemble bruce lee.. like for example.. Like u mentioned his hair and  his intro should be like wen he takes off his Gi Top slowly button by button and throws it on the floor. if u choose to keep the Gi Top on then u could add a palette for Kato, Kato never really faught without his top lol.

good luck

Ax

Yeah maybe the hair can be rounder like a 70s look as well?

Also Bruce Lee has a regional style, there was South style and North style, I forget which was which but one side had power attacks and straight forward death blows and the other side had grace and an artistic style in traditions. Bruce Lee was the straight forward one and Jackie Chan I think was the other.

Use K' as a base, he pretty much fought like Bruce Lee but with flames.
