[C] Walker - 2.08

[支倉凍砂]

Looks and sounds pretty cool! The sprites seem a little familiar though.

As not the moveset is almost a complete rip-off. : p

Is there any specific reason for invulnerability during Spectre Kick? It is kind of weird if a character gets unhitable for more than one frame for no apparent reason (in the eyes of the player). If it needs to be, at least add some effect to the sprite so that the invulnerability is graphically justified.

So what do you say about Davis' Dragon Punch?

Moves which have some kind of invulberability from 1F is called "reversals" in fighting game terminology. I'm pretty sure you find them in all 1v1 2D fighting games you have ever played. I won't go into why they are so important (unless if you want to), because it doesn't really apply to LF2 to that extent.

In Walker's case, I'd like to think of it as a must because Walker has no range. He has no projectile attack, he cannot run and he cannot dash. In case of mobility and reach, he is weaker than Bandit. You cannot use dash to suprise your opponent with a quick attack or with z-movement, and if you jump JJ only works on the way down, so opponent will have quite some time to react.

Spectre Kick allows him to use jumps more safely, but as the hitbox isn't the greatest it isn't a completely safe move and it is really dangerous if blocked as well. Furthermore, step SK is in a sense a projectile attack.

Even when a counter attack is added, I think he will need something more to combat range. Maybe removing some of the 9F at the end of Phantom Dash can help this, but I still think that something else also is needed.

Love the idea of replacing the run with little dashes.

Not really my original idea, but thanks. I really like to change some fundamental stuff. Why does everyone need to be able to run?
I have experimented on another character with making it a back dash with invulnerability, so you back step projectiles and other slow attacks.

I want to try that new version.

There are some things I want to change and take a look at before I release a beta-version, but I will probably put it up this week (though it seems to become a busy one T_T)
Any feedback on my questions or suggestions will more than likely speed up the process.
