After this mod goes gold, would it be too much for us to get a backlog of all the things that went behind the screen? I'd love to learn all the ideas that were never implemented, how Turbo came into concept, discussions on characters, etc.

I understand that since the game is in development, it'd be unrealistic. But is it too much to request an achieve afterwards?

I'd love to know the ideas too. They did an amazing job so far.
Bowser was supposed to shoot out a fireball instead of a flamethrower, but it was too overpowered.

They used to stream a lot of stuff that was subject to change before demo 2.0 and showed a lot of stuff that isn't implemented. That was usually fun to see some of the stuff they came up with. Like Lucas' abortion stick and Pits aerial loop.

But they generally dont stream that stuff anymore because we have a 90% of the cast demo to play and stream now.

I'm aware of stuff such as that. I'm more interested on the design and discussion process, there must have been much heated debate on how to implement some Brawl characters and I would love to see unused alternatives.
And I want to see if their clone engine discussions are as bat**** insane as ours are.

For a brief time they had Lucas use his twig in his jab attacks.

I forget who, but someone described the attack/animation as looking ugly, and the term abortion stick was adopted to describe it.

I would love this! : D I think it'd be awesome to see the thread when they realized that the clone engine was actually going to work, and they could bring back Roy and Mewtwo. They must've been pumped. And then came the "oh $#@% now we have a ton more work to do... <_<;;"
