Theory, do you think a character with a fast fall speed and Cloud Up Air can use that Cloud Up Air to combo into a Ganondorf Volcano Kick, maybe if the kick is a bit faster?

Take note, Little Mac plays like a dream with a Switch Pro Controller

I think I figured out why I'm so mixed on Project M's Lucas rework, it's not the moveset, it's how its inconsistent with how other clone movesets were handled. All that time was spent on remaking Lucas' moveset from the ground up to be less like a Ness clone, but they also made the Spacies MORE clone-like, rather than diverge their movesets even further. That is my true issue, I feel like keeping the Spacies the same while changing the other clones is a refusal towards accepting the new updates to their movesets.

Random deep question, do you think some people are stifled creatively and skillfully by being taught the wrong way?

Honorary appreciation post for the OST of Melee's Fountain of Dreams.

Hot take, if we WERE to have a Gen 9 Pokemon in the next game, Ogrepon would be the better choice ngl, firstly they are the least divisive mon of the gen, they have a cool mask gimmick to make a moveset out of, and being a club wielder, they would bring a unique archtype to the game

I think the worst part of Smash's online is just that you can't garentee a fair fight, you can try all you might, but there will always will be the risk of a Ness main wrecking you on Pac-Land or something, and it doesn't help that it feels very slow to collect GSP a it feels like you only get 5000 when you win and lose 50000 when you lose, makes it so your unable to know your true skill in the game

Got a 10 winstreak as Lucas, preparing for a tournament later this month

What does DSR mean in the context of Smash Ultimate?

Is a Switch Pro Controller good for competitive Smash Bros?

If I were to remake Ganondorf's moveset, I would keep the Warlock Punch but make it his Forward Smash, really has the asstetic of such

are zoners in Platfighter inherently unfun to play as or go against, are there ways to make combat with them more enjoyable?

How can I make layouts for competitive stages in my platform fighter that are still interesting to fight on? Like my battlefield equivalent, it takes layout inspiration from WarioWare with better blast zones, there will be a Final Destination equivalent for a good clean fight on a flat layout, and there will be a stage that utilizes different patterns of moving platforms, however, they are in a consistent order so they can be consistently taken advantage of.

What do you guys think is the reason Found of Dreams from Melee is so loved, the aestetic, music, or layout, maybe a combo of the three, I want to make a spiritual successor to that in my platfighter but I don't know where to start

I don't get why when you have Smash stick enabled you don't have an option to disable Smash attacks by also pressing the neutral attack button and movement stick at the same time, sorta defeats the purpose ngl.

Still don't get why Wrecking Crew is its own franchise in Smash rather than being a Mario franchise

How does the mechanic of allowing players to reset their jump through sacrificing meter sound? Basically, when your in the air and either spend your double jump or in freefall, you can regain the jump by spending meter, which also allows you to use up special a second time. The meter can also be used to enhance your special attacks into stronger versions and powers you shield, so there is some balance you have to account for. I feel like this helps with the lack of ledges in my game, does that sound like a good idea?

I'll make a hot take, on paper Nintendo suing Yuzu is justified, the Switch is a current generation console, so I do think an emulator for it could negatively affect Nintendo, and considering how a few Switch games, most notably Tears of the Kingdom, have been leaked, it would be natural for Nintendo to sue them. It is a shame Citra is in the crossfire, but it's not like there will be other emulators for the 3ds eventually. Personally if an emulator is emulating a currently supported console then its not okay and to me its piracy, if the console isn't supported anymore then I think emulation is okay.

What are the pros and cons of having ledges in a platform fighter, that seems to be a double-edged sword to some people

Does anyone know the reason why the Smokey Progg of all enemies became the first spirit fought in world of light, I feel like it wasted a potential slot for such a cool enemy. If I were to design the spirit I would make it a giant black Bowser who can attack by dashing into you, taking place on Final Destination Distant Planet with both Poison Floor AND Fog, it would also be able the pierce shields, it would be a legendary spirit

Working on a heavy-bruiser zoner for my platfighter. A Ganondorf-tier bruiser who is projectile-focused, they wield a large shotgun as their main weapon. I was imagining their normal Up Special would have them shoot their gun downwards to launch themselves upwards, then they perform a powerful kick to get back onto the stage, so a combo of Mii Gunner's Lunar Launch and Wizard's Foot, while the enhanced Hyper version has them shoot a grappling hook from their gun to latch onto the ledge.

I noticed, the lower the tier placement a fighter is, the more deranged their discord server is

Do you think with some alterations, these public domain sounds would work well as sounds used when you get hit in my platfighter?

You know that stock western movie plot of a cowboy escorting a child across the west and the child learns how to fight, that would make a cool puppet fighter ngl, with the child riding the cowboy's back and then the cowboy can deploy the child to assist them in fighting their foes

Remember when Persona 5 was on PS3, I sure as heck didn't

I'm just going to say this spicy take, Little Mac is not in the bottom 2 in the game. If anything, I think he is better than that. I feel like he fails since players treat him like a normal Smash fighter when he isn't. I feel like if optimized to the best of his abilities, he has the capabilities or some impressive feats. Sure his aerials suck, but that is where his fast fall speed and ground speed come in to minimize air time. Down Smash is one of the best Down Smashes in my opinion due to its great range, quickness, and kill power. Straight Lunge is just as good as a burst movement option as well as a hard read, and the mid-charge is the best version of the move since you maximize range without the deadly cooldown. Jolt Haymaker is fantastic and would make any normal fighter top tier, if you could string it like Jigglypuff's Pound many players wouldn't talk about his recovery issues as much. Slip Counter is the best counter in the game due to its fast speed and his kill power. And Rising Uppercut is a good combo ender against small characters and floaties. In short, Little Mac is not bottom tier, he is to me on the cusp of low mid-tier. If I were to place him I would place him at the top of the D- tier, at the point where I consider characters are viable enough to win tournaments with some effort.

Got a 5 win streak with Little Mac, he isn't bottom 2 in the game btw

Is it just me or does Little Mac feel a bit too low. Yes Little Mac is quite infamous but I think he has a VERY high-skill floor, he is challenging to use properly but is a menace when a good player is used, I don't think he deserves to be bottom 2 in the game. I feel like he could at least be better than Zelda.

Do you think Smash Ultimate is dying, or is just entering a strange transitionary phase in the game's life? I feel like it won't die since it's distinct enough from the other games to warrant a large playerbase, maybe not as big as Melee but bigger than 64 definitely.

Hot take, Find Mii has better representation in Smash Ultimate than Pac Man

So there is a Fight Club video game, and that Fight Club video game has Fred Durst as a fighter, and that also means he is a playable character, meaning he will be compared to other characters, meaning that there could be a competitive Fight Club metagame I don't know about, meaning that there might be a tier list where Fred Durst could potentially be an S tier character.

So crouching in my game is a bit weird compared to other Platfighters, when you crouch you won't exit the crouch until you enter the command to jump, you have a down tilt attack that you can perform on either side, with some acting as a slide for better mobility.

Who do you think is the most mid character in the entire history of Smash Bros, personally it's a tie between Pit and Lucas since they always just existed with no major splash in the meta.

Very random question, when you picture a giant clump of parasitic alien sea urchins latching on to a larger queen the size of a dog in a platform fighter, do you picture said urchin to play like a combination of Duck Hunt with the Hogan's Alley can, Sephiroth with have an attack resembling Shadowflare, and Yoshi due to have a unique shield, though in this case it's shield that is only 2/3rds the durability of a standard shield but deals a bit of recoil damage to the attacker if they attack the shield.

Guys there is a new Denpa Men game coming out, please support a potential localization.

Apparently, Min Min altered her DNA to be part ramen since she loves it so much.

Why is there no Ribblin jokes, come on guys make some dank memes.

My plat-fighter won't have L-Canceling, I feel like that is just an unnecessary barrier to entry unlike wave dashing, and is just unnecessary complication for the sake of unnecessary complication.

How does everyone like the idea of there being a "back tilt" attack, to mirror that there is a Back Air attack? I feel like Back Tilt would make the game feel just a bit more unique. It would also give each tilt more of a distinct purpose, like imagining the back tilt to be a simple keep-away tool for those trying to attack from behind.

Does anyone mind that my Platform Fighter will have square hitboxes and not circular hitboxes like vanilla Smash bros.

Coding a game is harder than it looks, but perseverance is always a good trait to have. If you want a game to be good you need to have perseverance and work ethic which I am trying to maintain for myself.
