Elochai Report post Posted May 23, 2013 What makes you "good" at finding combos? I'd inquire about this, but I'm not sure if I'm totally fitting of the bill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zinac Report post Posted May 23, 2013 What makes you "good" at finding combos? I'd inquire about this, but I'm not sure if I'm totally fitting of the bill. Are you the type of person who rushes to be the first to find new combos and post them online before anyone else? Or do you look up other people's combos before entering training mode. I guess that would some it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elochai Report post Posted May 23, 2013 I suppose I'm not much of the latter, with the exception of those Liz garu loops, or Liz 2D combos I posted. I just usually try to build on what other people have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SolxBaiken Report post Posted May 23, 2013 I'll just wait till you're looking for general testers. I try to discover combos on my own, but what I find is far from "optimal" lol but I do enjoy just testing out the properties and various situations of things and can spend hours on that~ Can't wait to see what else you've got up your sleeves!

Zinac Report post Posted May 24, 2013 .. Also is your new avatar related to the project in any way? Haha, no, it's just a rendition of me a member of the art team drew. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SolxBaiken Report post Posted May 24, 2013 Aww, seeing what appears to be Poco and Uri at the sides, I was hoping we'd get a Shiki-tier character XD EDIT: Oh just saw, new reveal tonight! .o. Wonder if it will be Slendermuscle, Red Heels, or someone new!? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zinac Report post Posted May 25, 2013 Thanks everyone to came by to watch the stream. It's extremely motivating to see more and more people checking out the game's progress! I think we're going to try to have another stream June 1st at Arcade Legacy with actual matches. I'll post about that when it's decided. Any plans on how you will handle Burst? We haven't settled on any defensive mechanics yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SoWL Report post Posted May 25, 2013 I didn't even realize that "Chinese martial arts girl" was a thing big enough to warrant a genderswap subversion. I mean, the default was always male for me, probably because of Fei-Long. But now that I think about it, I can't really remember any other examples, so maybe it's just me missing the obvious.

SolxBaiken Report post Posted May 25, 2013 I didn't even realize that "Chinese martial arts girl" was a thing big enough to warrant a genderswap subversion. I mean, the default was always male for me, probably because of Fei-Long. But now that I think about it, I can't really remember any other examples, so maybe it's just me missing the obvious. In the beginning all aimed to imitate the "greatest" martial artist is history; Bruce Lee. But after the Great Moe Wars of the early 2000s all that changed when it was discovered that turning anything and everything into a woman could increase its appeal tenfold. This is our story---The Sadlife Chronicles. But yeah, it's a small thing but I respect the thought behind it and like the results, Jackie Handsome came out really good, and I forgot to mention this on stream, but he sort of reminds me of Hazama (Rumble Fish) both physically [if he undid his hair and ripped off his shirt] and gameplay wise [seeing how they both rely on transitioning into stances and followup, except Hazama was all about that back turn while Ang Lee is all about crouching tiger] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlackYakuzu94 Report post Posted May 25, 2013 Why is it that I heard this game is essentially a reskin of GG when it doesn't feel that way at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SolxBaiken Report post Posted May 25, 2013 Early impressions of a game early in development? I mean they haven't even fully thought up a system, so comparing it to anything right now is unfair lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wenzel Report post Posted May 25, 2013 The game its early WIP stage, so hope people dont put the trigger and start to making big comparisons instead of support them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coren Report post Posted May 31, 2013 Why is it that I heard this game is essentially a reskin of GG when it doesn't feel that way at all. Because SRK frontpage articles are shamefully poorly written by people who largely don't know what they're talking about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tigre Report post Posted May 31, 2013 I read it on Shoryuken that's why. pfffffft. Like Coren said, srk front page isn't always the best. Either way, this is looking pretty cool Zinac. please never have voting for characters, or a character with a heart shaped ahoge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hecatom Report post Posted May 31, 2013 Why is it that I heard this game is essentially a reskin of GG when it doesn't feel that way at all. Because combos + airdashes + animu = GG hurr durr Seriously speaking, like other people pointed don't trust everything that is posted on the front page of SRK, outside a really few, the majority of people who write for it barely knows about fg's. Saying that, since Zinac plays GG, i wouldn't be surprised that he takes some little inspiration from GG, but nothing more than that, i am pretty sure that he wants to make the game within his own vision.

Agni Report post Posted May 31, 2013 Because SRK frontpage articles are shamefully poorly written by people who largely don't know what they're talking about. Add this to most SRK users being SF/MAHVULL players who think every anime fighter looks the same, and...well, don't trust SRK on anything besides like tech talk.

Zinac Report post Posted May 31, 2013 The pace and responsiveness feels very much like Guilty Gear. If you ask anyone who's played it I'm sure they'll say the same thing. The game does have RCs and FRCs currently, but we have expanded on FRCs. Giving them a pre-activation buffer, but keeping the actual cancel window small. We haven't pulled any of the defensive mechanics nor most of the other offensive ones from GG. I still need to see how characters evolve in match play before I decide on final defensive mechanics, or even a guard bar. The most important thing is the game play is heavily focused on the characters being very different from one another. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
