Real Life stage:
Paris (France)
1644431480844.png


is the capital and most populous city of France, with an estimated population of 2,165,423 residents as of 1 January 2019 in an area of more than 105 square kilometres (41 square miles).[4] Since the 17th century, Paris has been one of Europe's major centres of finance, diplomacy, commerce, fashion, gastronomy, science, and arts. The City of Paris is the centre and seat of government of the region and province of Île-de-France, or Paris Region, which has an estimated population of 12,174,880, or about 18 percent of the population of France as of 2017.[5] The Paris Region had a GDP of €709 billion ($808 billion) in 2017.[6] According to the Economist Intelligence Unit Worldwide Cost of Living Survey in 2018, Paris was the second most expensive city in the world, after Singapore and ahead of Zürich, Hong Kong, Oslo, and Geneva.[7] Another source ranked Paris as most expensive, on par with Singapore and Hong Kong, in 2018.[8][9]

Paris is a major railway, highway, and air-transport hub served by two international airports: Paris–Charles de Gaulle (the second-busiest airport in Europe) and Paris–Orly.[10][11] Opened in 1900, the city's subway system, the Paris Métro, serves 5.23 million passengers daily;[12] it is the second-busiest metro system in Europe after the Moscow Metro. Gare du Nord is the 24th-busiest railway station in the world, but the busiest located outside Japan, with 262 million passengers in 2015.[13] Paris is especially known for its museums and architectural landmarks: the Louvre received 2.8 million visitors in 2021, despite the long museum closings caused by the COVID-19 virus.[14] The Musée d'Orsay, Musée Marmottan Monet and Musée de l'Orangerie are noted for their collections of French Impressionist art. The Pompidou Centre Musée National d'Art Moderne has the largest collection of modern and contemporary art in Europe. The Musée Rodin and Musée Picasso exhibit the works of two noted Parisians. The historical district along the Seine in the city centre has been classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1991; popular landmarks there include the Cathedral of Notre Dame de Paris on the Île de la Cité, now closed for renovation after the 15 April 2019 fire. Other popular tourist sites include the Gothic royal chapel of Sainte-Chapelle, also on the Île de la Cité; the Eiffel Tower, constructed for the Paris Universal Exposition of 1889; the Grand Palais and Petit Palais, built for the Paris Universal Exposition of 1900; the Arc de Triomphe on the Champs-Élysées, and the hill of Montmartre with its artistic history and its Basilica of Sacré-Coeur.[15]

How it's gonna look like as Stage?
Well, you need to think about the Paris stage from PSABR (Notably the aesthetics), but it's stylized as Real Life Paris and the stuff from Sly Cooper are removed and replace by Real Life Paris stuff.
1644431606843.png

You would fight on the rooftops of the buildings and there are no platforms, but there are seperated buildings that act as ground like there are 3 buildings and one in the middle is lowered unlike others.
If you fall between them, you lose a stock and die.
In background, you could see Museum of Louvre, Eiffel Tower with it's front plain and other Paris landmarks like Elysium Gardens that appear in background.
Also, random people in Background would appear and they are in love with each other (Referencing that Paris is city of love, plus the Valentines are very close, so why not add the Paris stage as representation of Valentines?)

Also, the Stage is scrolling meaning that you could visit all the Paris in a fight, so could jump on the buildings while fighting.

I nominate the Paris as Stage, because it would represent real life an it's very iconic and largest European city that ever exists in the continent.
Also, I nominate that stage because of valentines and the Paris is actually City of love and Valentines has "Love" theme, so why can't we just celebrate with addition of the stage?

Job 43:
Unrepresented assist:
Hulk (The Incredible Hulk)

1644432221070.png


The Hulk is a fictional superhero appearing in publications by the American publisher Marvel Comics. Created by writer Stan Lee and artist Jack Kirby, the character first appeared in the debut issue of The Incredible Hulk (May 1962). In his comic book appearances, the character is both the Hulk, a green-skinned, hulking and muscular humanoid possessing a vast degree of physical strength, and his alter ego Dr. Robert Bruce Banner, a physically weak, socially withdrawn, and emotionally reserved physicist. The two exist as independent dissociative personalities, and resent each other.

Following his accidental exposure to gamma rays while saving the life of Rick Jones during the detonation of an experimental bomb, Banner is physically transformed into the Hulk when subjected to emotional stress, at or against his will. This transformation often leads to destructive rampages and to conflicts that complicate Banner's civilian life. The Hulk's level of strength is normally conveyed as proportionate to his level of anger. Commonly portrayed as a raging savage, the Hulk has been represented with other personalities based on Banner's fractured psyche, from a mindless, destructive force, to a brilliant warrior, or a genius scientist in his own right. Despite both Hulk and Banner's desire for solitude, the character has a large supporting cast. This includes Banner's lover Betty Ross, his best friend Rick Jones, his cousin She-Hulk, and therapist and ally Doc Samson. In addition, the Hulk alter ego has many key supporting characters, like his co-founders of the superhero team the Avengers, his queen Caiera, fellow warriors Korg and Miek, and sons Skaar and Hiro-Kala. However, his uncontrollable power has brought him into conflict with his fellow heroes and others. Despite this, he tries his best to do what's right while battling villains such as the Leader, the Abomination, the Absorbing Man and more.
One of the most iconic characters in popular culture,[4][5] the character has appeared on a variety of merchandise, such as clothing and collectable items, inspired real-world structures (such as theme park attractions), and been referenced in a number of media. Banner and the Hulk have been adapted in live-action, animated, and video game incarnations

What's his purpose?
When summoned, he could appear as Bruce Banner. When you hit him, he would become a giant assist and he could walk around the stage and he could do his attack: "Hulk Smash!", which he does a ground pound that shakes the whole stage and deals heavy damage. Also, he could grab a fighter and throw it across the stage, dealing great damage. He also can tank some attacks, which it gives him a super armor.
He can be defeated actually.

I know he can work as a fighter, but due to fact how destructive he is, I'm gonna make him as an assist character due to his popularity and I don't think we could have him in Base roster or DLC, but still he could fit as an Assist trophy character despite he has some moveset potential.
Actually, an one Avenger as Assist character won't ruin the whole game I guess...

The Hulk is actually someone I'd like on the main roster, but a second Marvel rep is up in the air as to who it'd be. If I really wanted to screw with people, I'd pick Howard the Duck. Genuinely, it could be between the Hulk, Iron Man, Wolverine (or Professor X, as we saw earlier), the Fantastic Four or Doctor Doom, Captain America, or Thor, maybe someone else...who knows? Never mind that there are other comics besides Marvel and DC...this is a topic for later, for sure. Just thinking, I suppose.

What we do with Marvel/ DC is gonna be interesting because it feels right for them to be even. But three are other comic characters who should be included.

Anyway I'll likely submit soon.

Y'know, having Hulk in the roster is not a bad thing, but due to how destructive he is, I stated him as hypothetical Assist.
If you guys want a second Marvel rep, then Hulk would fit, but he comes through assist phase.

I mean, it's a just a concept how he could work.

Hershey Park



This would be a simple travelling stage with a unique gimmick, The stage travels around the park seeing many landmarks and rides from the park. The platform starts and it's a standard FD size with the Hersheypark logo but oiccasioanlly the plat form drops out and is replaced with either a Hershey Bar shaped platform that is longer and thinner or A Reese's shaped platform that spins

Job 43

Ghostface (Scream)




Once summoned Ghostface will pose before going invisible and moves to another part of the stage where they become visible and chase opponents with his Knife, If Ghostface catches an opponent he will stab them instantly KO-ing them. Ghostface can be easily tripped.

The Moon

Our famous orbiting body, it's been featured in so much media that it's insane, and if you look up at night, anyone can see it. It would be perfectly fitting. The fight would take place on the Moon's surface, with the famous American flag and Lunar Lander in the background, as well as the Earth far and away in the distance. Astronauts can occasionally be seen walking around and doing their duties. The stage itself is a walk-off, and acts as a less chaotic stage then most. Fitting for the Moon.

Tokyo, Japan

a0002533_main.jpg

The stage would be a walkoff stage that travels (ala Garreg Mach Monastery) and will travel to the different sites of Japan. We have characters from Japan in this game. Why not have a stage based off of their home country?

Job 43:

Thomas the Tank Engine

Thomas_Tank_Engine_1.JPG


Thomas is one of the most popular children's characters ever. He started off as a character in a children's book series known as The Railway Series. Most people know the TV series which is known for its iconic theme song. He would not work as a fighter for sure but he would go across the stage and would turn around via a turntable. We do not really have any European children's characters on the roster and Thomas is super well-known. He'd be a perfect assist.

Real life stage: Magic Kingdom



The stage is a “travelling stage” similar to Delfino Plaza or Port Town. It goes to each of the different areas, starting in Main Street USA, then going to Adventureland, Frontierland, Fantasyland, Toontown and finally Tomorrowland.

Unrepped assist: Chowder


Chowder just runs around the stage eating any item he sees. Just like the Munchlax Pokeball.

Assist:
Tetsuo.jpg

Tetsuo from Akira, one of the first big animes in the English speaking world (back when people still called it Japanimation.)
Tetsuo would appear on the screen and cause big bursts of psychic energy (acting like a huge gust of wind blowing everything back.)
Tetsuo would do this a few times in each direction.
If Tetsuo takes damage during this, his arm and body start to mutate horrible and he explodes in a large flash of energy.


Real Place
loch-ness-monster-2800x1440.jpg

Loch Ness

You fight on an outcropping of land with a small stone fort overlooking a large lake (make with some rocks or the occassional large boat). And of course, every once in a while A large plesiosuarus looking creature rises out of the water and attacks. (Hey, the PLACE is real. Nobody ever said anything about the details needing to be.)

Our next job...
Job #44: Submit a scrolling stage.
I can't say I enjoy playing on these, but at least they aren't Great Cave Offensive. And there's some appeal to being able to basically go through the entire level of a game or something like that just beating the Hell out of each other. That all said, my submission idea is not that, necessarily.

The Great Train Robbery
1644642869887.png

Loosely based on the very early silent film of the same name, you will be fighting on top of several train cars, which will keep driving along until they occasionally drive into a tunnel, at which point you'll have to duck for a brief period of time. Sometime there will also be telephone pole wires and tree branches above you that you'll have to jump over, as well. This whole stage is presented in a black & white, grainy style, although your fighters will still be in full color, albeit sometimes effected by the lighting.

Scrolling stage: Wonkatania

The infamous boat ride scene from the Gene Wilder Willy Wonka movie. The ride stars off in the Chocolate Room, but then goes through the tunnel and gets faster. Scary images will flash on the screen, like those of spiders and maggots. Eventually, it passes by the inventing room, before going through the dark tunnel all over again. It repeats for the nut/egg room, the fizzy lifting drink room, and the TV room. Oompa-Loompas can be seen powering the boat in the back. If characters are not physically on the boat, it moves without them.

Job #44: Carousel of Progress

1644643956466.png


Made for the famous 1964 World's Fair, the Carousel of Progress is one of the oldest attractions in any theme park in the world, and it's one of my personal favorite parts of Walt Disney World. As a Floridian, I am an expert on that subject! For those not in the know, it's a stage show using animatronics and prerecorded voices. The gimmick is that the stage rotates around, showing different sections at a time. In the Carousel of Progress show, it shows various scenes of a standard nuclear American family progressing through various stages of technological advancement, from the nostalgic iceboxes of the Roarin' Twenties to a sci-fi future with flashy technology that would be called retrofuturism by today's standards. It showed a very optimistic vision of the future, which I always found endearing, and the rotating aspect means it's perfect for a traveling stage. In this game, it wouldn't stop and go in the real show, it would be continuously rotating with the fighters inhabiting whatever is between the two curtains at the time. The stage would take place in a larger version of the evolving house as the rotation fills it with more electrical wiring, air conditioning, and holograms. Eventually it would start over abruptly. The animatronics in the background might even react to the fight.

Space Madness

From NASB. The only changes are that the platforms don't sink (with the exception of the Gritty Kitty bag, which has it as a gimmick like the ice cream bar bathwater's reduced gravity) and Ren and Stimpy themselves are added as cameos - Stimpy hanging on to the History Eraser Button platform and eying down said button, and Ren sitting in the bathwater eating his "ice cream bar".

Originally starting off in San Diego, California in 1970 as the Golden State Comic Book Convention, Comic-Con is a true celebration of pop culture. The stage will scroll through the convention hall showcasing booths selling art pieces, comics, toys, etc. People in cosplay will be hazards as well as cameoing characters from Marvel, DC, etc.

Job about Side-Scrolling stages:
Obstacle Course (Ninja Warrior/Sasuke)
Medium origin: TV show/Reality show

1644824528702.png
1644824558532.png

That's right, Obstacle course from Ninja Warrior is gonna appear in Pop-Culture Clash, which is based on Ninja Warrior, a well known multinational Reality show featuring people, who are trying to go through Obstacle course and they need to watch out on Hazards like Water.
Although it didn't originate from Ninja Warrior, but from obscure Japanese Reality show Sasuke, where contestants need to pass throught the course without failing. The show was so popular that later Ninja Warrior because it was inspired by this show. Also, Fall Guys was influenced by Sasuke and Ninja Warrior.
You know, I'm gonna use the Ninja Awrrior aesthetic, but there are elements taken from Sasuke if you're interested.

Here's the thing about the Layout:
First, you start off on start and you go on the ramp that has traction and you could slip off it. Later, it scrolls to part with Monkey bars over the water and you need to avoid it. Next are the poles that you need to jump on them and another Obstacle are Monkey bars again, but you can walk on them like before, since it's a Platform Fighter. Later, it scrolls to three soft platform that you can fall off by accident, which it makes the stage more challenging for competitive players.
Again, the Monkey bars are appearing again, but there are Spikes underneath them, eating that you can hurt yourself by that if you fall there. Next is a Ninja wall that you can climb and there are a lot of soft platforms it use. After the scrolling phase of climbing wall, you finally end the course and it restarts again.
(I created that layout in my mind)

I nominate the Obstacle course, because It would be funny and crazy concept to include a Reality show-based stage and it would be based on well known Ninja Warrio franchise. Plus, it gives a cool aesthetic to have an obstacle course-like stage in the Game.

Ok, stage submission coming soon, but perhaps we could add the Living Dead from Night of the Living Dead as enemies, stating we have a stage featuring them?
I've done this already, as well as adding our recent stages and assists. I'll keep submissions open for these stages for a bit more, as well. Should I change submission periods to where it's every two days instead of (more or less) every day?
