Status Update

Hi, long time no see! You might be wondering what happened to last month's demo and posts, so here to briefly talk about it why they've been missing.

To sum up these are our last 2 months of investment, so we've been focusing 100% on wrapping up characters and game modes to make a "final build" for our partners of Kaiju Games to send to publishers, since the plan is to release the game around the middle of 2025. So, we've been focusing on stuff we're still not able to show, which made...

Game Demo [Ver 0.5.1]

Here's the link to the demo and patch notes:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1uBWXLnnN6_LFTMGHrsMf3nsdTbFiuHTx

Antxón's Lv2 Super

An antiair reversal with short horizontal range, but super fast startup.

If the first hit connects, the opponent will be sent flying and you'll have to press the button again to strike right before they fall to the ground. Do it too early or too late and it will do a very weak hit, but if you do it with a lot of precision, the damage can get to numbers similar to Limit Breakers.

Sylvia's Neck Break Super

For Sylvia's Lv2 girlboss super, she will poledance around the enemy and snap their fucking neck with her thighs.

The attack is an unblockable grab, unavoidable at point blank, but even if you're a few steps away, she will advance a little bit and still grab them if they don't jump. The move has startup invulnerability, so if the opponent has already pressed a midrange button, they'll have to say goodbye to 40% health.

Antxón's Armor Attack

Certified jumpscare button. Has a much slower startup than other Armor Attacks, but has much more hits of armor and deals a HUGE TON OF DAMAGE. A Counter Hit from this single strike can give you a huge advantage.

However, there are many counterplays, like using a lot of grabs against him, crossup moves, supers, and even... blocking like usual. His Break Meter will build a lot by using this move once, so it's not something they'll want to spam especially if they whiffed it once.

Sylvia walljump combo

Did we show that Sylvia can walljump before? I'll act as if we did.

Here's a little combo/reset/mixup/whatever from her walljump. Enjoy-

Sylvia Limit Break concept art

Most of the character's battle animations are done, so now we're tackling the Limit Breaks!

These are always the most complex animations to work on, so its what we'll be focusing mostly these next months

Game Demo [Ver 0.4.14]

Here's the link for July's version:

Antxón 3 rock combo

Spending most of your very limited resource on a highly scaled combo doesn't look too optimal. But it's very fucking cool tho.

Antxón 2 rocks combo

After a screenbounce, it's up to you to spend another rock to get some extra damage!

Since rocks can hit up to 2 times, it'll be better if you find a way to re-launch the them against the opponent during the combo so that 2nd hit isn't wasted.

Antxón 1 rock combo

Antxón deals huge damage through his grabs, though in exchange, he struggles to get long combos. Spending his rocks on his Air B is a must to convert his 5A into a BnBs. Once the opponent is in the air, you can start to get creative.

Game Demo [Ver 0.4.13]

Here's the link for June's version:

Big balance patch incoming!

Yo! We'll share this month's build during next week.

You better be ready for a kilometric Update Notes file, because it's a big balance patch incoming. You should expect some nerfs for very specific combos, but a lot of buffs to compensate in neutral, pressure and defensive tools.

Hope you have fun figuring out new tech and combos in the next patch!

Sylvia's story animations

Sylvia's battle oufit isn't too good to hide the fact that she's a psycho killer, so when you find her chilling around in Story Mode, she'll be wearing a slightly more discreet outfit.

Don't worry, except for the killing, she'll still be her usual self.

Antxón's story animations

We want to put a little extra effort on the story's visual novel, so sprites wont' be static, but will have brief animated gestures, transitions and loops to make them feel more alive!

With Antxón you'll be able to see what an energetic old man he is even before the battle!

Sarah's story sprites

Here are some of Sarah's sprites and expressions for the story mode!

Story Mode concept!

We're now working in the game's visual novel story mode!

It won't be a single long campaign, but instead, 8 different short stories, each with one of the playable characters as the protagonist. This way, you can start diving into the lore of New Spice City with the character you like the most.

All chapters will be written so they can be perfectly understood independently, though playing all of them will still let you see more of the characters you like and understand more of the g...

Game Demo [Ver 0.4.12]

Sorry for the delay guys, here's May's demo!

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1cIYLefSKACHHh8JaHYcxCi3AkmYBT0Mi?usp=sharing

Antxón's alternate colors 3

We've had so much fun with all of these

Antxón's alternate colors 2

Some more alternate colors!

Antxón's Flying Press

His aerial C move will make Antxón rise, and then fall heavily to the ground!

If it connects, it will cause a knockdown, but even if it misses, it'll create a shockwave that will prevent him from being punished too easily

Antxón's Dash Punch

Being a grappler, approaching the opponent is a hard task for Antxón. Luckily, he has a good dash attack with armor!

By holding the "C" button, he will charge this attack up to 3 different levels of strength with better armor and combo properties.

While he holds the button, he won't stay in a pose, but will still be able to act normally, so the enemy will never see when you're going to rush and slam them into the wall!
