[Char] Kaktena

[JoHo15]

Only thing I'm not really a fan of is self heal, especially such a "dramatic" one, compared to John who simply flicks a wand to do the same thing.

But i like making some animations

I'd say being ungraceful is a good thing here. She seems more like such a rough and goofy charcter to me. Also instead of making buggy posion effect, those spiky things could use itr kind 8 and stick to and jump from one character to another.

But what would the do to enemy and allys at the same time ?



anyway made the dash attack and jump attack

deleted the original superpunch cause bouncing an enemy on the ground would be tricky or buggy to do so i will either make a new run attack or superpunch. so basic movements are pretty much finished now i have to do specials

Im enjoing A LOT following the creation of this char.
The 2° Healing-Pose looks awesome, by the way. Even if you don't end up making her have a healing ability, create something using this pose.

Keep the great work!

Introduction
It all startet that i realized that i havent finished a single char,
for the game that awake my passion for drawing again.
Because most of the time i was thinking of making a whole mod,
so this time i will just focus at one char, that i have at least finished one since the 8 years i started spriting.


Description
So about the char itself its basic idea is based on a cactus,
i have just one move in mind at the moment so i am not 100% set on the moves yet
so if u have some suggestions feel free to post them maybe i will u some of your ideas.
I was also thinking of making some kind of posionos moves.

As u can see most of the Basics sheets are already done i just have to do some Attack sprites and specials.
If u notice some major flaws or something bugs u in the sprites itself please let me know.

I really love your character. By the way, what graphics program did you use when creating it? .. I thought it was finished but as the saying goes, "the later, the better it will be" xD I invented it. hahah.
sorry for my english ... i'm spanish

Coming back to LF2 after 10+ years. Very glad to see the community is still active. Awesome character mate. Not just full of great ideas and genuinely fun to play with, but original spritework too.
