I have been getting requests for a wannabe character based on Shermie from KOF... For those who like Shermie, it would be more for Grappler-likes if Spike and Lucy are not enough for you... This is a prototype.
Who is one of your favorite characters in Zan Evolution Butouden?
This was a nice thing to wake up to; my first ask (not counting joke asks from my sibling). I might take a while to answer, but that's because I may have forgotten how to speak like a normal person... lol
When I first played it, I was not very good at performing half-circle motions (I can do them fine usually, but I play M.U.G.E.N. and all that on keyboard, which is a whole other problem) – most characters in Z.E.B. have at least one move with that motion, so it reduced who I could play as down to only a few characters (from my recollection; Taka Hoppa, Warsnite and Sinkage? May have forgotten someone, though). I'm quite good as all three, I think – I know some easy high-damage combos as Sinkage, specifically – but early on I almost exclusively played as Taka, despite not usually going for charge characters. I'm still pretty good as him; I found that in the corner his supers can combo into each other for some big damage, which is neat.
Now that I've got the hang of half-circles, though, I play as Fanhua the most – she kind of reminds me of my OC a little, so it's the closest I can do to playing as her (for now, teehee...); and her moveset is also just really fun to use. One thing that Z.E.B. does that I like is that characters have quite large movesets – Fanhua has seven special moves herself (and I think the least any character has is Warsnite's four) – so I can vary my playstyle and combos by quite a bit.
Sorry if I rambled on for a bit, I've never had a proper ask before and I got excited, lol. Your game is very fun and well-made, though, and your character designs are neat! I look forward to seeing how Ciara's moveset plays out!
kamen rider shion was just revealed for ride kamens, and he looks like he's themed after the... horse orphnoch? this is an even bigger surprise than the jin and woz homages
trying to speculate on Ride Kamens characters pre-reveal really is like
I just wanted to draw the 8 princes of Rhodolite side by side, trying to think about their height differences and different body types. I suppose these might be my headcanons? I'm sure there are lot of things you learn about them in their routes and such so if those things are not present it is because I haven't played their routes.
I'm still bit peeved that Licht's sprite looks like a stick when he is the head of the army of Rhodolite. So I will not stop giving him some mass. I made Luke bit more burly, (How about making him a BEAR?👀👀) because I have gotten the idea that he is a warrior too and not just lanky and tall. I wanted to respect their sprites so I didn't go too wild.
Warriors isn't a womaniser and I'll die on this hill. After all he's been through in his era, largely including the entire war that was started just because Cia (someone he'd never met) had an obsessive crush on him, I'm very much of the opinion that he'd be doing his damn best to make himself seem uninterested in women and relationships in general. People only assume he's a womaniser cos he's a "pretty boy".
This character is in a lot of testing, and I needed more like the pros to exploit its potential. I also have a trailer I worked on this April 2024; a new uploaded one is coming. There are some fixes, new buffs, and nerfs, but all characters are good.
they have now revealed another character for ride kamens, hayate, and it looks like he's a kr jin homage? glad they confirmed that it's not only titular riders getting representation, but still, a pretty off the cuff surprise for me
yeah, Jin is a welcome pull, but a pretty weird one! I saw the post when it dropped (don't ask why I was looking at twitter at 3 AM) and the replies were. very confused. :') nice to see some Jin rep though! and if this opens the door to characters based on more deepcut riders, all the better!
of course, if they really want to stay true to the spirit of Jin, we know what he'll be like
Okay, so I'm still waiting for my friend so we can start Gilbert's route, and meanwhile I started Silvio's route.
I have enjoyed it okay, I won't say anything until I have finished the dramatic ending. But I have enjoyed the moments of his mask slipping so I hope that there will be more of that. But one thing I can say for certain, Silvio's route has stoked the fires of my interest in Gilbert's route : D And I have also warmed up a little bit for Rio too. A little bit.
This is a bit of a wip I have made. :3 I need to add the spots on his collar... and well render the rest. Let's see how I feel about this tomorrow xd
I'm looking forward to see more things unravel in the route, like why the hell he is so tsundere about him caring about people :0 I'm sure he likes sassy people because his mom was a sassy queen. I think it is pretty obvious. I will be calling it if it is confirmed.
No thoughts head empty, just Victor thoughts, mostly sad.
This man has the nickname of Grim Reaper for a reason. He and William founded Crown. He has access to the previous records of the Cursed who came before them. Furthermore, he knows how each of the suitors are going to die and has shared tidbits of it to the suitors and MC on many occasions.
What more, if any of the Cursed suitors are to die, it looks like it would be him who would be called on to collect their corpses given how he is one of the founders of Crown.
Thinks about how Victor despite knowing the fated ends of the Cursed, he still cares for all of them. Moreso, how attached he is to the entirety of Crown and despite how some of the cast do not like him meddling, he never gets mad at this fact.
It almost does not make sense for someone who could be the personification of Death/Grim Reaper would be so caring, because their deaths would hurt him. It is the price they pay for being Cursed after all, a cruel end. I wonder now if the reason why he cares so much for them at the present is a way to assauge the ever looming knowledge that they are doomed.
Oh, but the irony of a kind Grim Reaper who reaches out his hand in care for the living. When it is still the same hand who will take them when they draw their last breath.
