"Bounty hunters like me do not fight to show off!" - Kanzaki, Hayato
Time to bring new life to old pals! The Star Gladiator, with the plasma sword, HAYATO!
============================= WHY HAYATO? ===================================
This is one of the starting sub-projects of the VS. Style Debuts, who I call: "VS. Style Revamps".
This is a massive update on old characters released by great coders from the past, like Beximus or Splode for example.
Beximus has released a nice set of classic characters in past being these: Hayato, Rubyheart, Tron Bonne, Sakura, Ingrid and Karin.
The same for Splode characters like Captain Commando, who I really want to update.
Started with Sakura, and now reaching the star gladiator hero Hayato!
Since Star Gladiator is pretty overlooked by the mugen community, I wanted to refresh this character as a totally NEW one. Respecting the classic moveset coded, but with some enhancements and bug fixes.
Oh, about Hayato also, you guys noticed his voices has now a better quality right? MvC2 did a horrible job of getting the voice samples from P.Sword game, and it resulted on a very muffled and compressed voice set. I've recorded[after HOURS] all of the fresh new voiceset from him during some Plasma Sword playtroughs. Also, I've enhanced and fixed some damages, fixed the visual issue on "Plasma Field" version of "Black Hayato" and other things.
Plus, made a proper hyper background for Plasma Field
Hayato definitely needed to shine more, and I've tried to bring that here
