[Char] Maple

[Trickityhouses]

Cool man looks really clean Im glad your first character is something new. What kinds of fighter is he going to be?

[MnM]

Hey trick! I must say dozens of thanks to u for opening a thread and showing us how u make chars. I did the face expressions using ur technique. This is going to be a boxing char (uses mostly hand power. ) I am in need of moves. Thinking of finishing the basics within 2 days - 3 days . Come on let ur imagination flow.

lil update:



Now i am conscious and select the correct falling frame :P .

boxing eh? hmmm all i can think of are big combos and uppercuts, maybe he should bob and weave to dodge attacks, or make all of his specials a block type so he can punch through most weak attacks he can be a tank rushing into people!

[MnM]

Well, he cant be a tank cause he has pretty basic muscleyness. Me and Dome had a chat. He says about using a whirlwind which will be created by twist and turns by Maple and this circles the enemy. After that they freeze at their position cause they are stunned and they are dizzy. More Ideas are welcome from EVERYONE! WHERE ARE U guyz..

Rejoice:

It's a pretty good Bat edit. He does not look like a boxer though. I'd rather see him in traditional boxing clothes (no clothes on the upper body and shorts) or normal clothes. Perhaps a training suit would fit him, and it's fairly easy to sprite. His face and hair look good.

About the style: boxing focuses on short distance and the dodging is done over a very small area. It is impossible to make a realistic boxing dodge in LF2. Perhaps he shouldn't be 'a tank', but you should give him something that makes him the perfect countering character in short distance one-on-one fights. For moves: 2 things he should definately have are a variety of realistic punching combos (for exemple: straight punch, roundhouse punch, uppercut) and a very strong uppercut that could also be used at the end of a combo (more combo possibilities).

Good luck on your character!

Day by day basic sprites are being completed.In fact this is my first post in this thread but I have been seeing this thread everyday.

As Neocrypt said,Maple looks for very small area (1 on 1).Yes and it really need combos.
Sprites: colors looks a few different from traditional lf2's characters,because they don't have strong contrast.

Now if you modified him so,1 on 1 championship will be easily won.

Good luck

Let's Label Maple as a NORMAL character . This guy can also control wind ( So a wind move is applicable. ) This guy can also shoot beams . Just yellow colored one cause this is normal . A punching combos can be added. A few Normal move which hits distant object such as clapping the fist would generate waves and like wise can be added.

Move list:
1 . Punching combos.
2 . Wind move
3 . Beams ( balls )
4 . Air wave.

This list will be edited. some will be deleted upon wishes of LFE mems or dome.

More Ideas are welcome. ( the reason for begging of ideas is to make the game play interesting for uuu )

Maple_0 : 70% Done!!!

naw with his clothes you should make him a darkness char =)
something like
-darkness cloud that damages anyone who gets close
-a large wave of darkness like a tsunami, large AoE but little damage to push enemies back
-this column of swirling darkness, like julian's big bang but with awesome spirals of darkness =)
-invisibility move, but i cant think of anything that would make it different from a normal invisible move
-health leech move?
all i got for now

Since Oliver Stirred up my insights.. I did quite a few sketches of moves. I combined ur thoughts yungo. This char is a blood demon? :P Can control blood. Okies here is the list :

1) Blood Wave - Moves enemy ( naturally blood ) In the direction the move is performed.
2)Blood Power up - Increases Health of Maple. (Or) Damages enemy.
3)Blood Scratch - He rubs himself from bottom to Top and while performing this, the enemies are burned.

Here ya go :
