john amulet part 2

[Lauli]

Whoa man, that is (nearly) awesome!! The idea is actually kinda obvious, but so far you're the first one to do it. (I think.)
But is it just me, or is he "descending" at a wrong speed?
At first he is fast and then gets slower. It might be also just an illusion, it could be possible that he's in fact "descending" at a constant speed, but perspective somehow distorts that perception.
You can slow him down a bit, then give him a little bit more speed in the end of the animation in order to have a right perspective-effect.

Another thought, it would be so totally kickass if there also were some Bandits climbing up the sides of the road.

(I said "descending", because Bandit's actually moving down on y-axis. I assume. I also said it because it sounds cool.)

i have decided to spoiler this feature because i consider it to be of similar weight as the fusion or louisEX
all following features that are somehow tied to this will also just be named amulet power part 3, 4, 5 and so on

now that you have decided to view it i want to politely ask you to spoiler any part of your own post referring to this as well

john amulet activated (Click to View)

again this is not a new move
but the previous amulet feature, this time activated

so john can unlock the amulets power - which will release a little spirit you saw in the last gif
if the amulet power is unlocked john can call the spirit back in (DJA), which activates the amulets power
the spirit comes out again, deactivating the amulet, if john is either knocked out; defends without performing a move; or presses DJA again

part 3 will be more practical, i promise

so if i have made you eager enough already and you can't wait for a release or don't care about spoiling yourself go ahead and view it (possibly just to be disappointed :p again)

i've done it before in taos temple

But is it just me, or is he "descending" at a wrong speed?
At first he is fast and then gets slower. It might be also just an illusion, it could be possible that he's in fact "descending" at a constant speed, but perspective somehow distorts that perception.

i really don't like the idea of editing that animation but i can see the problem
maybe i can fix it by editing the positioning a little here and there
what bugged me more was the low frame rate, but that's already fixed

Another thought, it would be so totally kickass if there also were some Bandits climbing up the sides of the road.

bandits won't be doing what you think they should be doing in this stage
so they won't be climbing up

Hmm... very interesting.
This is starting to sound to me like a very elaborate and visually attractive way of doing those "Status Buff/Skill Modifier" type of skills.

Those type of skills are EVERYWHERE in alot of chinese mods... but they usually don't really have very nice visual indicators... which made me sad.

[alphafighters]

Hell no, a great progress. I would also choose the aerial flash kick.

[YinYin]

next up: deep combo 3 or henry arrow rain

[Lauli]

Whoa, somehow that landing animation looks really good.
Well, you could clean up some pixels in that flash kick and maybe edit his hands a bit, so they don't look like they're "touching" something.

Let's finally see Deep combo 3
:)

[shin hanazumi]

akh man, you're so great to make that great moves! AWESOME!!!
btw, can you make dennis dash attack into a move and make it a bit like louis's D>J but fastly to avoid double hit.
