definately an interesting change to the character, I prefer the original but I can see your vision, as a main of the character I think it's cool, but I'll miss him turning into a ball

dogg I stopped playing for a while after that comment, just came back to him and he feels way worse to play man. I like the new philosophy with tuning down his armour and changing dspecial, and the DK punch is rad, but he feels really neutered in neutral with nothing to really compensate. not sure what direction you wanna take them but some kinda buff would be real nice

Is there a way I can access the previous versions of this mod? More specifically, the release right before March 3rd?

4 AlexEspeon: A Megaton is a meauring unit for nukes. The more you know.

4 bcf: Initially I did too, but having it have those made it feel too much like "from outside" if you catch my drift. Playing it made it feel too much like it wasn't a Rivals character so I decided to change that a bit. It should still feel unique while also making it more part of the game

Personally, I prefered the non-rivals hit sfx this character had before, other then that the latest update was good.

Golem is my favorite Poké :)

I Love this a lot but what of all the pokemon did you make Golem?

I like this character a lot, imo he feels a bit underpowered, but overall a very cool design. I'm personally not crazy about some of his kit but still very nicely done. Kudos :)

mhh there appears to be a bug with his taunt, he doesn't do the growl sound but just the rivals error sound for some reason! Aside from that I love this character, he's my new main. I should say that f special is also kind of weird

Someone made one of my favorite old-school pokemon into a fighting game character... I love you. <3

Ace: Sorry but FSpec is currently a bit controversial, as multiple competitive players are a bit iffy about the move, claiming it to be a "neutral skip". It's currently waiting for ideas for a rework from one of the testers. I do thank you for the appreciation and the feedback tho :steamthumbsup:
ThunderClap: Thank you for the support man :steamthumbsup:

So amazing to see a character I've been playing for years get revamped! Keep up the good work! (:
Ace 11 Dec, 2021 @ 1:27pm 
Perfect character. I can see where you were going with just about everything. Only issue is the very slight lagging behind of the hitbox for F special. If you were to change that I would also ask for it to be able to get super armor(like crag) from stealth rock. I find myself getting that moves stuffed out hard by characters with fast options completely ignoring characters with disjoint.

I'm currently asking one of the testers ideas to "finish" or re-do FSpecial.
for Captain: unfortunately custom characters don't have advanced skins, but you can make a skin use a different set of sprites, although I think A-Golem is different enough to warrant being a separate character.
for Mako: No, it probably can't

can he beat the rock

I'm not sure if custom characters can have advanced skins like the default characters, but if they can, having an Alolan Golem variant would be totally awesome.

Love it. I agree with BootyEaters side special complaint. Feels a little unfinished and is really awkward to control.
PeachieDotZip 5 Dec, 2021 @ 5:51pm 
Great character! They really feel like Golem, you did really well! My only big gripe is that side b feels a little unfinished-- very little startup and weird movement/animation that feels too fast and immediate for a heavy.

I love this character and firmly believe you should download it if you love heavies, but just in case you need more convincing, here’s an entire video I’ve done on Golem:
