So has anyone noticed that sora can just fly infinitely with back air if he absorbs a slow falling soul? that seems like an oversight

I understand the deforming issue, but there are plenty of similar human characters with larger sprites that work fine against normal sized characters as well. Great mod nonetheless, hope you keep updating it <3

Hi, thanks your your comment! Since the sprites were ripped from his original game, I was limited in how I could scale them without deforming the sprite. The sprites are also this size for gameplay purposes, since making them larger would mean most of his attacks would go over the main Rivals cast.

Very cool, I think the sprite could be a little larger though

Love this character, but his fireball and jab def need a slight nerf since they can prove to kill and combo way too easily

Just a quick update - After a little testing I discovered that the issue you're describing only happens when Soma is loaded as a workshop mod. I didn't have any issues when copying the workshop files to the local folder used for testing. I can't say I know how to fix it, since this seems more like a bug with how characters are loaded, but in the meantime I'd suggest copying him to appdata/Local/RivalsofAether/workshop if you want to try him out in the extras menu.

It's a pretty weird bug, I'll look around the modding discord and see if anyone knows anything about it.

I can try redownloading him, maybe it was just a corrupted download. But my computer is powerful enough that performance isn't an issue if something is optimized. So I don't believe hardware is the issue in my case.

Zwataketa, I can't say I've ran into this issue. I'm not sure if it's a hardware thing or what, but he runs just fine in the extras menu.

Warning: Don't test this character in the Extras>Steam Workshop menu. It slows the game to a crawl and practically forces you to restart.

As someone who made my own version of Soma in Rivals a while back, I kinda like this better than my version. Definitely a more fitting gimmick and a lot less jank than mine.

This character is sick! The only issues I have are that n-air and jab's sprites don't really fit well with the rest of the character, and d-smash feels kinda useless (but maybe it could be used for edgeguarding I don't know). But aside from those really minor things, the character is great. The weapon swapping alone was really cool, and made the character really versatile, but then the soul stealing enchantment skills brought it to a whole new level. The ability to take your opponents stat is genius and I haven't seen it implemented in a platform fighter character before. Overall this character is super unique and really fun, super glad I stumbled upon it.
