I think those sprites are absolutely amazing! Not only do they nicely resemble Conker, but I believe they also perfectly fit the Super Mario Bros. aesthetic, I'd definitely tweet these out! By the way, I dig your Gargoyle scene a lot more than what I initially thought. Yeah the Context Sensitive pads maybe be important to Conker but that was also an iconic scene from BFD that would fit perfectly in this scenario with Bowser.You're idea is good! I was also thinking that his Context Sensitive ability would be the best for his role, but since he has so many abilities, it's really hard to choose from, but yeah the knives might really be the best option. As for the content, I'm sure that can work without being graphic, besides, one of their shorts involved Sub-Zero ripping Bowser's head off, so if they're fine with that, than I really don't see any issue!
My other idea was to make a reference to the Gargoyle scene in BDF, where Conker would walk into Bowser, hit him with his fry pan and Bowser would laugh so hard that he'd end up accidently falling off the bridge into the lava, and then in the next room, instead of there being a princess saying "Thank you Conker", there would be cash saying "So you want some green stuff eh", but yeah you're right, the CS trick trully is Conker's most memorable ability, so I guess it that would be the most fitting way for him to defeat Bowser and get the money.
By the way, here are Conker's sprites for his short, I tried my best to make him as close to the original NES Mario sprite while still staying true to his appearance. Gotta say, it was way more challenging than what I was expecting it to be. So what do you guys think?
I'm gonna have to disagree with you here. I think it's a bit harsh to call "anime characters" uncreative and unfitting when they each come from very unique, highly successful franchises. There are fans of these characters, including myself, so calling them uncreative is a bit baffling to me because I'm sure you wouldn't appreciate that if people said that about your favorite characters, and like I said, they each come from successful, creative games. In my opinion, I think it's unfair to judge all these characters just based on their art style. Plus, the game is literally from Japan. That anime-esque art style is highly popular and frequently used in Japan so that wouldn't make it unfitting in the slightest. Also, how can you complain about weeb stuff when, once again, this game is literally from Japan! Of course a game made in Japan, along with game franchises made in Japan, would be influenced by Japanese culture and that is exactly what characters like Marth, Shulk, Joker, and other "anime" characters embrace.Ah, I knew that sooner or later someone would get offended by this...
So what if the game is japanese, alot of its characters such as Mario, DK, Duck Hunt Duo, Pacman, Ness, Inlkings, etc... don't even look japanese.
And even when they do (at least some of them, such as Kirby and the Pokemon characters) they still possess some creative and charming aspects that easily distinguish them from the others.
I personally don't like it when they add uncreative and unfitting anime characters. That's just my taste.
This isn't meant to sound rude in the slightest, I just don't understand where you're coming from and I don't think your complaints make any sense...
