I really hope she's in, and playable. I feel like her chances now are better than they've ever been, honestly (no recent games to take the focus away from Japan-only/more obscure titles + no Lip's Stick yet + flower redesign). I won't get my hopes up for anything, though, this series has burned me before.
Any appearance is a step forward if at least we get to see Lip in some form and not just an item, but I'm unsure if Mii outfits return since I've only seen a single one in the trailer. Though only being a Mii Outfit would just be another Welcome Amiibo situation so it won't be that special. I still think an assist trophy is unlikely since the Lip Sitck is a staple item and it would be weird for someone to have her weapon with her assist trophy form here at the same time. I don't think trying to make the puzzle blocks work like the game for the assist trophy form will work well on characters such as Bowser who takes up like 3x4 blocks of space. Plus being able to tech will sort of hinder the assist trophy's usefulness. Giving the blocks collisions or not won't make it work well. If you make the assist trophy just use a flower effect then it'll just function like one of Togepi's leech seed. But an assist trophy based universe is considered a higher representative than an item universe one like Panel de Pon in previous games.
Her design is sort of not consistent in the Sfc original when comparing her Vs mode portrait to her on the 1-player mode screen. One looks much taller than the other. Captain Rainbow, I think her model was too small for her but the game was sort of designed to be a little out of proportion to begin with.
They could always choose to have the flower effect come from a different item. (Ramblin' Evil Mushroom, I'm counting on you.) Internal names don't always align 1:1 with their actual in-game effects. Besides, the fact that they chose to update the flower at all... it just seems suspicious to me.
That's awesome! How did you find these?
Just randomly searching for Smash Brothers stuff that concerned Lip while I was bored.
I just subbed to that channel it's quite good~
Exactly, very talented animations. The supporters of Lip should connect with this person to push Lip support even further.
See, I'm not sure if that's a good idea. Japanese independent creators tend to be very shy when it comes to people from other countries appreciating their work. They seem to be just peachy with it if it's only one or two people, but if they get overwhelmed, they're just as likely to delete all of their content and vanish off the face of the earth as they are to be flattered and put out more content. (In my experience, they tend to be sensitive about "white people" "stealing" their content, i.e. reposting without credit.) While I'm very interested in this guy's work, I think it's for the best if we let him go about his business without pestering him.
I would say it is worth a shot.
Yeah they seem very finicky from my point of view.
I don't want to risk it. This man is clearly very passionate about Panel de Pon, and I love seeing new things from him. I'd hate for that to go away.
In Smash Wiki on the origin part of the Lip's Stick Flower page it says "The flower's continued-damage property in Smash may be a reference to how garbage blocks interfere with the opponent's gameplay."
May be a reference. That's purely speculation. It seems most of all like it's a reference to Panel de Pon's lore, with the wand casting a flower spell when you smack an enemy with it.
You know what? This reminds me of megacocorock; he makes some neat-looking Mega Man fangames, but refuses to share them with anyone out of apparent paranoia. Which is too bad, some of those have really neat ideas (like putting Mega Man in Kirby), and the Western Mega Man fan scene is still struggling trying to put out decent projects.
She looks so damn cute! <3
Should the pointed ears be similar to some of the Zelda characters in that model?
Is it bad if I say I'd gladly take that over just the ****ing Lip Stick again?
It is a higher role than an item-only Universe.
I saw a YouTube comment about this video where someone asked the uploader:
Or at the very least an actual trophy of the game. Panel de Pon/Tetris Attack has a really complicated and interesting development background, it would be nice to at least acknowledge it. Melee did it a little bit, but got completely removed by Brawl and Sm4sh. I mean if Zangeki no Reginleiv can get a trophy, why can't Panel de Pon?
But we did get Little Mac's Captain Rainbow model as well as his Sm4sh model in the same game.
Yeah, I don't know what I was thinking when I made the old ears. New ones are much more accurate. Though I wasn't satisfied with how they turned out, so I made some adjustments to connect them better to the head instead of just sticking them in there. Looks much more natural now and I think it's a big improvement.
Aw shucks, thanks, but I don't think it looks fantastic or anything, heh...
Nice of you to worry, but no need for this, both models are very different and serve different purposes. Mine has a much lower poly count (less than half of the other one), making it more suited for imports. The other one has much more polys and also facial expression that aren't just flat textures, so it's well suited for renders.
It's not a very large or active server, so if you're worried about being overwhelmed by posts once you get there, don't be.
