M4E's WIP Thread

[Mature4evr]

Gone are the subtleties, the evasive hints, the allusions of a day to come.  With 2019 proceeding at quite the clip, I thought it apropos to enact my resolve to be about the masses with greater frequency for the foreseeable future.  By my reckoning, this is as good a springboard as any.  That having been said, I give you my extant escapade.

The Penguin (Oswald C. Cobblepot)



After lengthy conceptualization between colossal stretches of inactivity, the objective stands as follows:

• 2 Modes: Batman Returns & Extra (think CvS)
• 8 Special Moves & 5 Supers
• Vans' Tiny Buffering System
• A KOF-esque Combo Build
• Intro & Ending Sequences
• Classic & Modern Colors
• A Number of Win Quotes
• AI

Exclusive of facets such as damage values (which were atrociously high in the SNES interpretation of Batman Returns), emphasis will be placed on balance and precision (essentially, the blueprint for all my character releases moving forward).  In preparation for those keen on palette submission, I'm assembling a CSed template to dispense among the forums.  Anyone itching to participate further may message me.  As is always the case, I urge insight and recommendation.

Someone is finally getting it done!

[O Ilusionista]

Oh, nice work. I love when people still create stuff with retro sprites.

[Mature4evr]

My sentiments (and enthusiasm) exactly, sky!

@O'Ilusionista:
As do I, my friend.  I've never been an adherent of the tiresome, cookie-cutter approach that plagues Mugen.

[O Ilusionista]

Do you have plans for other characters from that game?


Off topic a tad, Dunno if you saw it, but I had (and still have) a project called Battle Stormer Classics

The game is full of this type of characters, but more based on Boss Battles. I should code Penguin inside that duck.
If you have any interest, drop me a line.

Apart from choice members of the Red Triangle Circus Gang making their presence felt within one of his maneuvers, I have no considerations for additional fighters from Batman Returns.  Formulating a move set for Penguin was feat enough on its own.

On the heels of some recent health setbacks, I've resumed the methodical molasses that is my projects.  I'm presently aiming to have the freehand separation (which, for a first, is mysteriously therapeutic) ready within the week.  All things considered, I believe I'm making strides on this front.
