Given that this is a fan project, you guys have free reign over who to include in this game. I'm a little sick of all these other fan games trying to be 'sooper-profeshinal' by only including Nintendo characters and such. Just go nuts.

BTW, Billy Mays needs to be in the game now you've joked about it. Unlockable character, maybe?

BREAKING NEWS!​

I'd like to quickly announce some things have changed a bit. First up, the sprite resolution is being upped a bit at the request of spriters. This means that sprites may take longer now... We have no idea when our demo will be released, but the spriters are attempting to get work done, and I'm even using my subpar drawing skills to help out.

With this update, another thing has been changed too: The v.01 roster. Originally, we planned on keeping it quite simple: 15 veterans, and 5 newcomers. However, most of the fun from these games comes from the newcomers. Sure, you may occasionally play Mario and Link in Crusade or SSF2, but why play them when you can fight them as Sora, or Crash Bandicoot? So, while we had 15 veterans planned out, we're removing 3 of them for the time being and allowing newcomers to join the fight! Don't worry, we still plan on attempting to include them eventually, but there's much more interesting new movesets and characters to cover.

Besides that, the newcomers have changed a bit as well. While Shovel Knight stays, most of the other newcomers are being saved for later. In their place, we're proud to announce that we will see Dr. Robotnik and Balloon Fighter enter the fight this time! Since we've already planned out their mechanics and such, only teasing them would be incredibly stupid.

And with that, I show you again the characters planned for our demo that we've announced:

We'll try to update soon once we get more spriting done, we still have 3 veterans and 5 newcomers still left to announce!

For the record, it was my idea to rethink the 0.1 Roster.

To each his own, I guess.

(Just you wait, we got a few new ideas for the Hero of Time that'll make him fun to play, and a worthy combatant in competitive settings.)

I know I said this once, but I'll say it again. I'm proud to be a play tester, but I'll warn you guys before balancing starts. Giving people a lot of options can lead to broken fighters. Like how people thought custom moves were going to be broken in tournament play. But then again they have been officially approved for tournament play.

Don't worry. If anything, the changes are for balancing purposes. Also that's why we have play testers in the first place, so we know what feels broken and needs to be changed!

I think what you should do is make big changes to the veterans to make them feel new. Like Mario could have different power-ups [Propeller mushroom as recovery, perhaps?] or Pikachu with different pokemon moves [Iron Tail?] Or giving Luigi moves with the poltergust 5000 and those lightning hand thingies from Superstar saga?

Also, your saying that the spriters are working on it, but I appleyed as a spriter a while ago and you never got back to me. BTW, the game looks great so far! And please, please. Billy Mays on Ridley. Its become such a meme on this thread that now I think you kinda have to do it.

I believe I can safely say that, while most characters have tiny tweaks, they will add a lot to their potential movesets. We've tried our best to keep each character similar to their previous counterparts, but while these changes are minor and could even be ignored, they could prove to be useful competitively.

Don't you think it'd be funny to have some character that is like Blade from the original SSF? Like Original the Character, or something else? :troll:

Note that that's most likely version 0.1, while the first demo will have 4 characters.

So 3 veterans and 5 newcomers, is it? In that case, I predict... Captain Falcon, Bowser, Megaman, Billy Mays riding Ridley, Ganon, (Not Ganondorf, the pig guy) Issac and IDK the others.

Just asking, when do you think that a playtester demo will be ready?

This thing of text is coming from a playtester:

Trust me I can't wait to actually test out this game to make sure it succeeds in the end. I want this to be a really good Smash Bros. fan game, and I'm sure it will be, but we all still need patience. Making a game is no easy task.
