Astolfo [BETA]

Description
Astolfo, Rider of Black and one of the 12 paladins of Charlamagne from the hit show Fate Apocrypha is here!

Alts include:

0: Default looks
1: Max Ascension Astolfo (FATE GRAND ORDER)
2: Charlamagne (FATE)
3: Jeanne d‘arc (FATE)
4: Sieg (FATE)
5: Forrest (Fire Emblem Fates)
6: Rosado (Fire Emblem Engage)
7: Bridget (Guilty Gear Strive)
8: Venti (Genshin Impact)
9: Felix Argyle (Re:Zero)
10: Raiden (Metal Gear Solid 2/Metal Gear Rising)
11: Manga (Self explanatory, I hope)
12: GameBoy color pallette
13: Transgender flag colors
14: Nonbinary flag colors
15: Astolfo (The Case Study of Vanitas)


Due to my lack of knowledge on how to make an in-game tutorial, here‘s an explanation on how some moves that may be confusing work:

Dair: It‘s a move with two stages. Press dair for the initial spin, and press attack again to rush downwards.

Fspecial: It works as a recovery tool, but it‘s main function is grabbing opponents and spitting them offstage to set up edgeguards.

Nspecial: Drink your (completely unlicensed) energy drink to get a 1.5 damage multiplier on all your attacks for a short while. (I‘m trying to add a penalty as well, but that‘ll need some more time, pls be patient with me). Recharges automatically (for now).

Dspecial: A simple, high knockback AOE move which may or may not be a bit too strong as of now. Similarly to Nspecial, it also recharges by itself.

Dstrong: I actually intended for the tipper on the lance to have a stun effect, guess that didn‘t really work. I‘ll fix that as soon as I can ;-;

Taunt: Hold down the button and just let ‘em vibe for as long as you want

They're stil in beta, so some sounds and sprites are still missing. Any feedback is welcome! And big thanks to everyone who has given me feedback so far.

And please no transphobic/trap comments. I won‘t tolerate any queerphobia here and I WILL report you if you disregard this.

Reply antisociable: Thanks again for your feedback my fellow femboy, I appreciate honest reviews. I understand that some moves feel a bit weak and look unfinished, so I will update the description to explain what they do. One of my friends is currently working on a rework of the sprites to make them more appealing and also less bland. Though I‘m not very good at coding, I will take a special gimmick into consideration. Feel free to hit me up for any suggestions (or your commission) via dms (just note that I‘ll probably be gone for a week)

2/2 id just like to see some moves tweaked to actually do something useful rather than just be there. if you made this completely from a meme stand point and have no intention of making him a i guess "proper viable fighter" then disregard anything i said. i play this game with my friend for fun but were sticklers with who we qualify as an "actual" character. ie fleshed out moves arent mega whack. most of astolfos arent but a few are. side b and dair mainly. i do wish he had a bit more animation in his f smash and down smash. along with fair and bair and dash attack. but beggars cant be choosers. love the character and design youve created. if you are open to commissions i'd even be interested in commissioning you in the future for a character. best regards -antisociable

Reply Maple: I'd just like to see him have his own thought out gimmick combos and such. atm he seems like a mix of byleth and palu with some odd moves. i quite literally dont see what his side b does other than be cute. (i adore his crouching idle btw its peak). his dair is weird because its a multi hit and you can choose to stay in the air or dive down. cool idea but when i hit dair were both there for like 3 seconds waiting for each hit to connect depending on height or whatever. im not sure what his monster can does im assuming just a damage buff? the horn i guess is just an aoe attack? i very much like it and i see the vision. 1/2

Reply antisociable: Thank you, glad you're enjoying my stuff. The moveset itself is finished, what would you like to see changed, since you asked for a real kit?

Reply IG-88B: "Trap" is an insult referring to a dumb stereotype of gay men who dress up as women in order to get straight cis men to have s3x with them, which, (SURPRISE!) is neither what crossdressing nor being a transfem or femboy is about. Calling someone a trap is neither quirky nor funny, but just offensive

Why can't I leave any "trap comments"? Is astolfo not a cross dresser or when did that change?
