My final smash, being one of the "cutscene" ones, is definitely v fixed. Prolly around 40% damage? That's about what Megaman's does anyways 80

P proud of my moves tho! I feel like they're all creative (enough at least 80) and like how their mechanics work. I'd totally play me. :0

also BAM I did the thing

Hey Hanky? Minor thread tangent here. But do you think that as we progress through the threads, we could start keeping a record of stuff in the OP? Nothing serious or intensive, just stuff that someone thinks is worth keeping easily accessed and therefore worth, say, a nomination. So we can have a spoiler in the first post in every thread about the things that got us really involved, and in future days we can look back and reminisce. Man that is a weird looking word. Reminisce. Doesn't it look like I misspelled it? God knows I wish we'd done that before; navigating for a specific LOL through 50 pages of anything is tough, especially when you don't know which 50 you should be looking in.

Nomination for a collective list of all our smashes once everyone's finished?

by OverlordJ Fri Sep 19, 2014 5:46 pm

Yeah as much as I enjoy stuff like this, I probably don't know enough about Smash to do this.

by **Hanky Panky** Fri Sep 19, 2014 6:20 pm

Why don't we make a separate thread and I'll edit the OP with all the smash lists in there?

by invisibleTerrarium Fri Sep 19, 2014 6:33 pm

NN, what exactly is that post your roster thing even for? What are you supposed to do with it???

iT trips on his shoelaces and falls into battle!!:

Wielding sabre, wearing mask. A light, relatively quick character with decent jumping and recovery. Focused more on good knockback than good damage. Has problems hitting opponents who are directly above him. The body of the sabre does a little more damage than the tip, except for in the up aerial, where that's reversed.

Neutral-A: Cuts twice to Three and Four, then does a point attack.

Side-tilt: Yellow Card Sweeps sabre along the ground. doesn't do much damage or knockback, but causes opponent to trip.

Up-tilt: Cut to Five Cuts forward, but to Five.

Down-tilt: Duck Cut Ducks and cuts to Two.

Dash Attack: Shit Whoops Trips on untied shoelaces and falls facefirst onto the opponent, much like Dedede or the Villager. Doesn't have any projectiles like the Villager though.

Side Smash: Lunge Lunges to Four.

Up Smash: Celebrate Fist pumps and punches above him with his ungloved hand. His only way to hit an opponent directly above him while on the ground, and since it's a smash attack with just his arm (low range) and the hitbox does not extend to his sides, you can probably see why that's a very large drawback.

Down Smash: Wide Angle Faces the screen and does a wide cut forward, covering both his left and his right. Turns to the right after this attack, which can waste a little time. Also the name has nothing to do with the move from OFF.

Neutral Air A sex kick with the sabre pointed behind him. Connecting with the very tip of the sabre is a potent meteor smash. Being good at this move is core to his gameplay.

Down Aerial Cuts underneath him.

Up Aerial Thrusts sabre upwards.

Forward Aerial A forward flip and headbutt with the mask. A meteor smash, but not as good a one as the neutral air.

Back Aerial A backflip with sword in front of him.

Neutral B: Parry 19 Hurls the sabre in front of him. It doesn't go very far, but he charges forward to get it afterwards, and is immune to knockback during this time.

Side-B: Feint/Cut Fakes the first two hits of the neutral A, and then flèches. The fake neutral A does no damage, but serves to get people to dodge early, letting them get hit. Flèching is technically illegal in sabre fencing, but this is smash bros so who cares.

Down-B: Riposte A counter move. Steels himself, and if he is attacked during this state, will parry and then strike back with an attack that does no damage, but 1.5 times the knockback.

Up-B: Flunge Flunges upward, which is actually wrong, but I'm a bad fencer so it doesn't really matter hehe

Up Taunt Pretends to do Link's taunt where he points the sword upwards then spins it, but drops the sabre and has to pick it up.

Down Taunt Flourishes a few times.

Side Taunt Pulls out fencing journal (where I write names, strengths, and weak points) and writes some things while saying a different phrase for each character.

what did you actually think I wasn't going to do all of them:

Final Smash: Author's Craft Summons an OC to fight alongside!!! Works like Zelda's, anyone caught in the beam is sucked into a cutscene wherein I team up with one of my OC's and pummel them. Then maybe 30% damage and lots of knockback. I'll provide a list later when I'm not already an hour behind on my homework mspa

Sorry for all the fencing lingo haha. Five is the head, Two is the waist, Three is your right, Four is your left. All the rest are sort of self explanatory or googleable.

i forgot the dang final smash whoops

by d_what Fri Sep 19, 2014 6:49 pm

Welp, we have our first official swordsman. Apparently, iT Fences. I did not know this. But if it was ME I wouldn't be able to resist the pun and my down special would steal and redistribute all items near me. I'd be a fencing fence. Damn. The word has lost all meaning. But YES THAT IS A LOT OF FENCING INFORMATION yeesh also you forgot your final smash! ((mine would involve an actual picket fence. For bonus punnery I would be Picketing. While on the fence.))

BTW I had assumed that if any characters would be playable in this it'd be ourselves before the actual roster. Super Quarantine Bros/Sisters/Non Binary Individuals, sorta thing. So... where are our taunts mspa

I'm pretty sure I'd be more likely to fight you than Pichu is!

by **Hanky Panky** Fri Sep 19, 2014 6:52 pm

yeah d_ has a point yet again

by d_what Fri Sep 19, 2014 6:56 pm

I do?

...Is this an innuendo?
Are you making fun of my username???

am I reading too much into this????

is it clear that I'm being facetious and this post is obviously nonsense as indicated by the plural question marks??????

by invisibleTerrarium Fri Sep 19, 2014 7:01 pm

Well, I considered that, but I didn't want to insult anyone without their express permission. mspa

by d_what Fri Sep 19, 2014 7:04 pm

That's okay, iT. None of us have listed our taunts yet so we can make ours based on how offended we are by yours mspa

be afraid
be very afraaaaid
btw how have you and spark not had crossovers yet
kids today and their OCs I'm sure I never did that sort of thing //blatant lies

by OverlordJ Fri Sep 19, 2014 7:10 pm

I didn't even know smash had taunts...

*Sighs*

I'll have to read a guide or something, won't I?

Cool, that roster link lets me see all the alt costumes I haven't seen yet. OHH HEY I did not know fierce diety link was in smash! That's awesome, majora's mask represent!

Also Lucina's last costume looks like sumia from fire emblem awakening. Considering I've actually used her quite a lot in my latest save game and still had to use google because I couldn't remember her name, I doubt I'll use that costume much.

TINMAN FUMBLES HIS WAY INTO YO HEARTS:

It took me way longer to create this than it should have. I need to practice writing and thinking and using that imagination stuff I used to have. Fun though! Hope it fits, and isn't OP/ UP.

Oh no, the Wii Fit Trainer's finally got him!!! mspa

You seem like a fun character to play as, though.

by d_what Fri Sep 19, 2014 7:49 pm

ohmg I actually cackled aloud hahah!! that was golden, seriously great joke. I'm STILL laughing about it. Actually, I'm a sucker for silly words that end in Y. Diety counts!

I think it could work, though don't worry about specific time needed for the moves. Just work with "long time" or "shortish time" and our imaginations will do most of the work; it's not like we're coding anything. The fixed knockback thing is cool - are there any items/moves ingame that already have a fixed knockback? I can't think of any, but then it's not really the kind of thing you notice. Also, where did you get the idea for the staff it's more out of the blue than iT's sudden ability to fence!

((before anyone asks I posted images of my favourite (second favourite??) scythe December months and months ago, it has a precedent))

by tinning3 Fri Sep 19, 2014 7:57 pm

Oh whoops, i before e, remember? Therefore I = right. It's not a stupid mistake to make, no sirreebob. Yeah I actually laughed too, after I finally got what you meant

Yeah the staff is pretty random, but I thought if your gimmick is the need for timing attacks to deal damage, some reach is necessary to make it sorta bearable and give a little margin of error. Coulda used a sword, but how would a sword not be pretty strong in it's own right? A staff is believeably weaker compare to what some of the smash roster wield, yet the addition of a crystal that increases strength via focus also makes it believebly stronger.

Did you post december in the art thread? It does sound familiar.

by muffinz Fri Sep 19, 2014 8:04 pm

Man, this demo is pretty fun. I actually like playing as all the characters in it, and it's got just enough content to keep you engaged for a while while still keeping you exited for all the features of the full game.

I might try making a moveset for myself later! But not right this second.

by Spark Eletran Fri Sep 19, 2014 8:10 pm

IIRC one of Megaman's custom specials has fixed knockback

Also, since... I guess IT has a fencing sword, Dee a scythe, Tintin a staff and HP prolly a hammer... I guess I should clarify I'd probably be the "unusual" fighter using just. punches. and accidents. Maybe throwing stuff.

...i think everybody here can see why I like playing Villager now.

ALSO I DID NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS CHARAHUB SITE I AM GONNA MAKE ONE FOR MYSELF AS SOON AS I CAN BECAUSE THAT IS REALYL COOL

by d_what Fri Sep 19, 2014 8:15 pm

No, I don't think so. Or maybe I did. IDK. I probably posted it a could of times in conjunction with other stuff? It's hard to remember. See, that's yet another reason why I suggested we log stuff in the OP :O

Is that a thing people do?

Who counts as a OC? Any character I ever came up with or only "main" characters

Because I probably have, like, at least ten universes and easily more thenten characters per universe

I mean, that one has a selkie family (6 people), three agents, three superheros, three archons, two sirens, two undead, a vampire, a cult leader, a witch, an omnipotent being and a regular human. And that's not even counting the atleast three mermaids and the members of that holy order. Yeah, obviously not all of these characters are main characters, heck, many aren't even named, but still, that is just one of my many worlds.

Sort of ninja'd:
Those look awesome D

I like playing as Villager too! They're probably my favorite of the five characters in the demo just because of how unusual they are. Those neutral and down specials are just so different from anything any other character has had, and their projectile-heavy regular attacks (especially those projectiles-that-don't-act-like-projectiles side smash and dash attack) are so interesting and fun to use. I almost wish their recovery wasn't so good, though, 'cause it honestly feels pretty overpowered at times.

by Spark Eletran Fri Sep 19, 2014 11:50 pm

I do not mind the Balloon Fight at all. Villager can still be KO'd pretty easily since he's so light after all... :0

Also since I just remembered it I might use a boomerang for certain moves as well just because I love the idea of boomerangs as weapons

EDIT: YO LOOK I DID IT I DID THE CHARAHUB THING. THERE ARE STILL MORE CHARACTERS BUT THESE ARE THE MAIN FIVE SO HERE YOU GOOOOO TAKE A LOOK AT 'EM

by d_what Sat Sep 20, 2014 6:37 am

Neato, Spark! Boomerangs are cool but your moveset is already basically perfect, I wouldn't trade Boomerangs for any of it. You should ask Dan if he'd draw a (vaguely Mii-Esque) Smash version of you! Y'know, for consistency.

Where are all the ladies with their smashes c'mon people we need some gender representation here :O

Hmm. You know, there's an awful lot more we could do on this topic. I'm not gonna get into it now, because it'll derail it too much (we should save it for when all the moves are in) but... Stages. Assists. Items. Both general and person-specific. Again, NOT gonna get into it now, but... I foresee a lot of Sharpedo in our future.

by OverlordJ Sat Sep 20, 2014 9:49 am

I am currently trying to lern a bit more about the mechanics of smash, once I did that I'll give more informations about me. I think I'll keep my current moves though, maybe I'll include useful custom variations of them.
