• Hadoukens will deal extra damage and hits, as well as increased amount of stun on opponents.
• Shoryuken, as you can see, gains an extra hit and boosted damage. There will also be improved invincibility.
• Tatsumaki Senpuu Kyakuu will become a Shinkuu Tatsumaki that deals multiple hits.
• Joudan Sokutogeri causes a wall bounce automatically.
• Ryu's Level 1 Super, Shinkuu Hadouken, becomes Denjin Hadouken. It functions similarly to Street Fighter V - it fires immediately, does a massive amount of stun and causes a Guard Break if it is blocked.

• I'm dropping mediums. It feels really awkward to press LP or LK again to get the medium hit in a chain combo, especially when you're not able to use medium attacks in any other situation. I'll either just go for a simple L > H chain or do a Darkstalkers thing of LP > LK > HP > HK. We'll see how it goes.
• To compensate for dropping mediums, I'll change how chaining into command moves and specials work. the current idea is that you can only chain into command normals from hard attacks, like HP or HK, but you can chain into any special move from a command as well as any normal. I might loosen that up so you can chain into command normals from any button.
• Musing on the idea of Super Cancels. Obviously, that would only work in the case of going from a Level 1 to a Level 2, unless the cost of doing so was only one bar extra, so it might not be worth it.
• Roll Cancells???

4. Embrace the grit and go in a direction more akin to Mortal Kombat. It’s pretty rare to see Capcom characters, especially non-SF ones, in a more MK-ish style.

• Do I stick with what I'm doing now, but add additional mechanics to try and make it more interesting? That would be the easiest way to do it, since I wouldn't have to change all that much, but I don't want to bloat the thing with too many weird mechanics that might just unbalance the whole thing.
• Do I try and go for a more KoF-style, with more restrictions on combos and similar gameplay elements? Given the original game was being worked on by ex-SNK luminaries and was originally intended to be  Capcom vs SNK 3, that would make the most sense and be interesting to see. My main fear on that one is that Capcom purists probably wouldn't accept a KoF-style game with Capcom characters. yes, Capcom vs SNK 1 exists, but I don't remember a lot of people liking that.
• Do I just throw up my hands and scream FUCK IT LET'S JUST DO ANOTHER MVC-STYLE GAME? Because as overdone as those are, I know those are the most popular because that's the definitive Capcom-style gameplay for most people.

• All characters follow a L > M > H basic chain. Mediums are accessed by pressing L a second time after the first L. So what you're seeing is actually something like LP > LP > HP, or LP > LK > HK. This applies to crouching normals as well.
• Jumping normals are only Lights and Heavies, and don't chain.
• Evasive dodge and roll exist to replicate the sidestep mechanic from the original game. I'm on the fence about including "roll cancelling" - cancelling the last few frames of a dodge roll into a special move to give it invincibility.
• Throws are on C. If the opponent hits Throw within the first ten frames of the animation, they'll perform a throw escape.

I don't know if the project is going to have a story behind, so in this case, I'd say going with the easiest(yet dumber) option: they've been abducted to another dimension, so Ingrid is searching for them/whatever. So you can center the efforts in the other fighters better.

Keep the good work!

As much as I prefer Morrigan by a long shot, I'll give Demitri a fair shot and say that in Cross Edge, he was voiced by Richard Epcar, so while the Cross Edge voice rips aren't available anywhere, maybe you'll find fitting voices from another character Epcar voiced: https://www.behindthevoiceactors.com/Richard-Epcar/

EDIT: Also, the Street Fighter wiki has some descriptions of D.D. and Rook's moves in those chara' pages, you can make movesets based on those.

This is interesting, Im just curious to know what you will do for D.D., Rook and Avel

• 6-Button fighter. 2 Punches, 2 Kicks, Evade and Throw Button
• Combos run on a L>M>H system derived from Rival Schools/Marvel vs Capcom 2/Early Darkstalkers. No air combos. Only one ground bounce, wall bounce and launcher per combo.
• "Dramatic Counter" equivalent to a Zero Counter.
• No air blocking (currently mulling this over).
• Both dashing and runs - some characters will run, others will dash, others will have both.
• EX Moves?
• All characters will have a Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 Super Combo.
• "Dramatic Finish" finishing moves that require a full bar of meter and the enemy player to be on a quarter life left.
• Stun meter derived from I.K.E.M.E.N.

• Ryu (Street Fighter) (CURRENT WIP)
• Chun-Li (Street Fighter II)
• Alex (Street Fighter III)
• Charlie Nash (Street Fighter Alpha)
• Mike Haggar (Final Fight)
• Poison (Final Fight)
• Batsu Ichimonji (Rival Schools)
• Akira Kazama (Rival Schools)
• Morrigan Aensland OR Demitri Maximoff (Darkstalkers)
• Strider Hiryu (Strider)
• Akuma (Street Fighter II) (Shin Akuma as secret boss)
• Daisuke 'D.D.' Denjima (Capcom Fighting All-Stars)
• Rook (Capcom Fighting All-Stars)
• Ingrid (Capcom Fighting All-Stars)
• Avel (Capcom Fighting All-Stars) (Alternate 'Death' form as Final Boss)
• Kyo Kusanagi (Guest Character from King of Fighters)

• "Story Mode" for each character that delves into the narrative of the game.
• Figure out how the hell netplay works so people can play online.
• Four additional characters to bulk up the roster to 20 - Edward Falcon, Jedah Dohma, Maverick Hunter X and Fiona Belli.
• Maaaaaybe a tag mode? Or, failing that, KOF-style "team" fights

Ryu




Working on all basic movements and attacks - he's a heavy retool of my earlier Ryu release, moving him closer to P.O.T.S' Ryu in terms of hitboxes, animation data and movement. Looking at the movest from the original game, Ryu doesn't seem to have very much going on, so I'll be trying to spice his gameplay up with stuff from later games, like the Denjin Renki, which will change the properties of his special moves outside of just the Hadouken.

Command Normals
Collarbone Breaker: F + HP
Gut Buster: B + HP
Senpuu Kyaku: F + LK

Special Moves
Hadouken: QCF + P
Shakunetsu Hadouken: HCF + P
Tatsumaki Senpuu Kyaku QCB + K (Air OK)
Shoryuken: F, D, DF + P
Joudan Sokutogeri: HCF + K
Denjin Renki: D, D + P. Changes the properties of the following:
- Hadouken becomes electrified and deals extra damage.
- Tatsumaki Senpuu Kyaku functions closer to Ken's tatsu.
- Shoryuken up close becomes an electrified "shin shoryuken" style move.
- Joudan Sokutogeri causes a wall bounce.

Super Moves
Level 1 - Shinkuu Hadouken: QCFx2 + P
Level 2 - Reppu Jinrai Shou: QCBx2 + P
Level 3 - Shin Shoryuken: QCF x 2 + K

Dramatic Finish
COMING SOON...

• Chun-Li: Sichisei Senkukyaku
• Charlie: Judgement Saber
• Poison: Poison Kiss
• Batsu: United By Fate (calls Hinata and Kyosuke)
• Akira: Kyoso Kiko Kai or that Level 3 super KarmaChameleon's Akira uses
• Demitri: Midnight Bliss
• Akuma: Shun Goku Satsu/Tenchi Sokaigen
• Kyo*: Ura 1212 Shiki - Yakumo
• Strider Hiryu: Ragnarok

• Still working on the base real slow. It just hit me how much I have to do for this - sounds for dashing, sound effects for activating Super Moves, the Dramatic Finish, Dramatic Counters etc. A lot to do still!
• Now I'm getting hung the fuck up on basic movement. Do I have characters run or dash? Do I split the difference and have a dash that goes into a run? But what if a character doesn't have a run animation? Do I just randomly decide based on the character and have a bunch of inconsistencies in the roster? Leaning towards dashes, but making them MvC or Darkstalkers-style long dashes.
• Obviously, once I've made a base, I'll start working on a Ryu using that base. I have an older Ryu lying around that I can re-engineer for it, and as I build him up I can retroactively add whatever needs adding to the base, thus making future development a hell of a lot easier.
