Quote

what I wouldn't do to get a better and more HD version of my ro-boy!

so up smash and bair just gets worse with the upgrades is that intended?

A custom sprited Quote is in development. When it's available I don't know though.

i did say that i was still interested in working on this character, didn't i?
i don't think that's true anymore. i'll update the description.

However, any steps toward such a prospect would necessitate excessive custom spriting for hitherto nonexistent animations. The prospect intimidates me, and my coding knowledge being limited as it is, I doubt I'll ever see such a thing come to fruition.

One day, I'd like to see a Quote that's more customized toward Rivals, rather than a direct import. It would have less room for references, but potentially be more fun to play as and against. I imagine proper jab mechanics would either rely on Sword or require actual punching; I personally lean toward the latter, since Sword seems an ideal strong.

On the other hand, some of the alterations stand out. I was surprised that weapons power up from successful hits; I'd been anticipating a collectibles mechanic like Shovel Knight's, and I believe such would have made for better balancing. I had also expected the Booster to act as a double jump (without significant lift, more reference than mechanic), and the LV 3 Machine Gun as an up-special (specifically with Curly making a short-term appearance for the move, since Quote can't have both the Polar Star and the Machine Gun at the same time).

This is a serviceable build, and I'm glad it exists. It doesn't fit into the standard Rivals gameplay very well, and this is mostly due to incompatible mechanics from the source material. Right now, every move is a projectile; this is accurate to the source material, but makes the character OP against most characters (especially in regards to infinite LV 3 Missiles for side-special). Ironically, the character is completely useless against Clarien for the same reason.

hes too big and too weak easily levels down

a very fun and cool character! well designed, only gripe is perhaps worth a re-sprite to make it fit in with the ROA cast
