SHOWTIME! - Skullgirls Social

[BrandX]

Yup, the SG community is absolutely amazing. I love it.

Time for big band

 

[ぱみゅ]

I can't believe all the major donation spots have been filled up.
Within 24 hours.

I only want my soundtrack ;o;

It's quite damn amazing to be honest XD

I wish I could spread this news to smash boards. I know a lot of them are SG fans, but they don't check this topic lol

And a month later we've got 4 new characters.

 

[Rutger]

Fortune/Robo-Fortune sounds like a team I would try to play if I picked this game up again.

Actually, thanks to Squigly, there will finally be at least three character designs I like in this game, so I can finally build a full team if I ever wanted to do that. :3
Some of the potential characters for the third new character are interesting too, I may try to start playing it again.

The fact that it is a pretty good game helps too.

Edit: Robo-Fortune will have a stage and story now.

Even thought there's only six more hours left, I honestly wouldn't be surprised to wake up tomorrow and see it reach the goal for a fifth character.

 

[ぱみゅ]

I just hope Robo Fortune doesn't end up being a copy character.
A semi-copy like Falco and Fox (in Brawl, not Melee) would be fine in my book though.

 

[Minato]

We did it. $825,415.
Edit: The number's still going, guess it's lagging

 

[ぱみゅ]

829 is the magic number, hurray!
That means FIVE new characters.

 

[Teczer0]

SG community is super impressive backing their game so much.

Its really heart warming to see actually.

I really hope to be able to pick up SG after my miserable semester ends though.

 

[Lythium]

Cool, so let's talk about tournament attendance now~

 

[Rutger]

I don't think very impressive begins to describe what happened.

The Skullgirls community's dedication to their game is amazing.

Five new characters is cool, hopefully this whole thing will get more people interested.
I think I'll try to start playing again.

I just hope Robo Fortune doesn't end up being a copy character.
A semi-copy like Falco and Fox (in Brawl, not Melee) would be fine in my book though.

Well, the indiegogo page says.

Robo-Fortune would obviously have a lot of animations in common with Ms. Fortune, but an all-new play-style, as well as other touches to make her her own character.

So she will be her own character.

 

[LivewiresXe]

Holy s---. Over $825k? FIVE new characters? Good lord, that SG community support is amazing. Way to go, you guys. That's some awesome work.

[Zwarm]

So I recently started practicing this game again because people will finally start to play it again, and I find myself liking pretty much every character in this game now... I don't know who to play anymore. I wanna stick with my old Peacock/Cerebella team, but I also want to play Parasoul, Filia, and Valentine now while keeping either Peacock or Cerebella on my team. Its a tough choice...

 

[BrandX]

Oh my god, I come back and people are finally making this topic active! I'm so happy <3

 

[ぱみゅ]

I always wanted to make it active, but, y'know, there wasn't much to talk about... until this year.

I tried to but I couldn't donate so I won't be voting. I'd love to vote Umbrella and Eliza.

 

[BrandX]

I've already voted and I'm getting two OC's as Background NPCS for the game.

Like honestly, this donation drive was much more fun then the EVO drive.

Getting 5 characters is absolutely amazing. I seriously love the SkullGirls community.

 

[Minato]

So many characters I want, so I should be fine with whoever manages to make it in. Went for Feng, Aeon, Marie, and Minette just for the gameplay inspirations. I wanted to vote for others like Isaac and Panzerfaust.

 

[BrandX]

Also to those who have seen our efforts, thank you so much for seeing that we love our game so much.

The Evo Drive was only the beginning, the Crowdfunding was where we showed our true power.

I hope your community will do well at Evo. We will try to provide our own show (even if we are a side tourney)

 

[Rutger]

I didn't donate, so I can't vote. I'm happy with Squigly though, Robo-Fortune is a cool bonus too.

If I could vote I would probably go with Issac, Beowulf, Minette, and Stanley.

There's a lot of other characters I would like to see too, Annie, Hive, Feng, Taliesin, Beatrix, Roxie, Molly, and I would really like to see Aeon, but Mike Z has doubts on how well he could make her while keeping her balanced, I don't know if I want to see something the developer isn't confident with.

I also like the idea of Undizzys being added in to cut down on some of the longer combos.

 

[Rutger]

Double post because Round one of voting is over.

Spoiler

Here are the Top 16 characters from Round 1 of the first character vote, in alphabetical order.
Aeon / エイオン
Annie / アニー
B. Dahlia / ブラック・ダリア
Beowulf / ベオウルフ
Brain Drain / ブレイン・ドレイン
Eliza / イライザ
Feng / フェン
Isaac / アイザック
Marie / マリー
Minette / ミネット
Molly / モリー
Panzerfaust / パンツァーファウスト
Scythana / サイサナ
Stanley / スタンレー
Umbrella / アンブレラ
Venus / ヴィーナス

Not bad, a few characters I would rather not see, but I'm glad my top four still have a chance.

No real surprises honestly, though I am sad that neither Beatrix nor Taliesin made it in, their playstyle's looked interesting. I don't think they have much of a chance as the second character either, unfortunately.

 

[sakuraZaKi]

Spoiler

Dahlia

didn't make it ;(

My poor heart... She was my no.1

 

[Rutger]

These are who did.

Spoiler

Round 2 of the Great Character Wars is complete, resulting in the following 8 survivors.
キャラクターの大戦争の２戦め終わりました。
Aeon / エイオン
Annie / アニー
Beowulf / ベオウルフ
Eliza / イライザ
Isaac / アイザック
Minette / ミネット
Panzerfaust / パンツァーファウスト
Stanley / スタンレー

The only one I don't want to see is Panzerfaust. I will not mind too much if he makes it though because Squigly >>>>> all, but he just looks like some generic 90s comic book character to me. :/

I'm happy with everyone else so far.


I like how Mike Z has been showing off a new build of the game every week on stream, though I'm sad that Squigly will not have an airdash when she's done.

 

[sakuraZaKi]

Still happy Aeon is in. Hope it stays that way.

That said, I also like the majority of the cast left.

 

[Minato]

Also sad that Feng didn't make it. Aeon and Minette are in still though. I want Aeon just to pair her up with Peacock for Dio shenanigans.

 

[ぱみゅ]

WTF? Panzerfaust and STANLEY before Umbrella and Feng ???
What?

 

[Rutger]

Stanley is cool. All the hate I'm seeing surprised me.

I hope he wins. Limitless potential with the Power of Science!

Or Annie, Minette, Isaac, Aeon, or Beowulf, they'd be cool too.

 

[Minato]

I can't not see Fubarduck when I see Beowulf lol. For current top 8, I like them all besides Eliza's character design. Whoever wins, I hope their playstyle suits me. I want at least one time control character to win.

Round 3 of the Great Character Wars is complete, resulting in the following 4 survivors, in alphabetical order.
スカルガールズのキャラクター投票ラウンド3が終了し、ラウンド4へ進むキャラクターをアルファベット順に記載します。
Aeon / エイオン
Annie / アニー
Eliza / イライザ
Minette / ミネット

Stanley is gone.

At least he took Panzerfaust with him.

Whatever, we are still getting a great character.

Spoiler

I haven't tried to draw a complete picture in years, it turned out much better than I expected, even if I could still nitpick the hell out of it.

That's going to be the best attack in the game. :3

Annie has kind of won me over during the past few weeks, I think I want her to win. Magical Girl Warachia Badguy sounds like a cool addition to the game.


Apparently Beowulf missed out by nine votes.

 

[ぱみゅ]

Honestly, any of those 4 characters sound great.
Minette being a cliche, but I trust Lab Zero to make her feel as an unique character.

 

[ぱみゅ]

BUMP!

[sakuraZaKi]

That was...

Really unexpected...

Only because I didn't like Eliza much to begin with. XD

Perhaps we will meet again another day, Aeon/Dahlia.

 

[ぱみゅ]

With the announcement of the first DLC character voting winner, the second round starts.

 

[Rutger]

Eliza huh.

Cool, one less character I have to worry about making me change my team. The A.B.A style gameplay could be cool, but I will not be able to get hyped for her until I can see her in action, though Lab Zero shouldn't have too much trouble in making Eliza look interesting. Plus this means team music is in, that's kind of cool.

Ms. Fortune/Peacock/Squigly/Robo-Fortune
Damn, already a problem.

Bring on vote 2, which I still can't participate in. Oh well, my fault for not donating. :/
Go Annie, Stanley, Beowulf, or Minette!

Or maybe even a surprise Hive, Beatrix, or Taliesin victory.

 

[BrandX]

Congrats to Eliza for winning (I was watching when the countdown finally revealed her). Crazy ****.

I'm still shooting for Annie or Scythana to make the next vote XP

Overall, even though I didn't vote Eliza, I welcome her with open arms <3

 

[Minato]

So Annie's now a Joestar?

Spoiler

 

[Rutger]

Annie of the Joestars!

Eliza better watch out.

 

[sakuraZaKi]

I get so worked up over these polls, lol.
