Not known enough for that kinda stuff, but we'll see once I've made more stuff and there's a few more games out haha!

Well it's really nice that you like them and I always appreciate that! Not enough people check out the Kewtians unfortunately, so I always appreciate the ones who do!

@Jazzy
Oh thank you, glad you like her! Give her a like if you want to, and feel free to check out some of the other stuff we got. In fact I have a few other OCs similar to Aria, which you might like if you liked her!
Still, glad to hear you like Aria that much either way haha. Means a lot!

Thank you for making the most fun character I've played in a fighting game!

FelixBlobDev  [author] 24 Dec, 2024 @ 6:20am 
@SonicDash784
She's always larger since that's technically her default, haha. Thank you though and glad you like her! Make sure to leave a like if you haven't, too!
SonicDash784 23 Dec, 2024 @ 11:44pm

Agent10008 23 Aug, 2024 @ 7:02pm 
she's kinda cute i guess
Krabbo98 25 Dec, 2023 @ 9:37pm 
@FelixBlobDev Oh wow, thanks for answering! I'm a big fan of your work, I actually main Morshu, I.M. Meen, and am just now picking up Dan Backslide and Mudkip. Thanks for the continued quality of your work, you're one of the best workshop creators on steam, imo.
FelixBlobDev  [author] 21 Dec, 2023 @ 11:43am 
@TheDeathEcchi No problem, haha! It's just a sweetspot kind of thing, but hitting the "sourspot" and making DStrong a standard hit can be beneficial too.
Plus, if you hold the strong input then the attack will ignore projectiles (standard for most of our characters w grabs). So there's lots of depth depending on the situation!

And thank you! As of Christmas Morshu the other day, we're at 23 characters now. There's definitely more coming though!
TheDeathEcchi 21 Dec, 2023 @ 11:36am 
Thank you a ton! That was driving me nuts! I can’t wait to see what else you come up with~!
FelixBlobDev  [author] 20 Dec, 2023 @ 3:57pm 
@TheDeathEcchi Hi and thank you for checking out Aria! Always nice to see, haha! Feel free to leave a vote if you enjoy her!

Anyways for your question: Her DStrong is a grab, so you basically either use it on projectiles or hit a player with the center part of the orbs. If you grab something then she will go into the rest of the move, but if not it's a more standard hit (which can also be useful, sometimes).

Hope that helps and let me know if you got any more questions!
TheDeathEcchi 20 Dec, 2023 @ 3:33pm 
There's this one attack I can't seem to nail down; she transitions from her down strong into growing huge and summoning stars?
FelixBlobDev  [author] 13 Nov, 2023 @ 6:42pm 
@Krabbo98
Oh it's fairly simple! It creates a zone where any damage Aria does to opponents heals her. Think of it as a healing zone, but instead of healing Aria passively it heals a portion of the damage dealt, haha.
Although damage has to be done while in range for it to work. And if an opponent destroys the plant then Aria will take 10% damage herself, so you have to protect it (which also means it can be smart to remove it before it takes too much damage, too).

Hope that helps explain it a bit better, but if not (or you have any other questions), then I'm always available to help!
Krabbo98 13 Nov, 2023 @ 6:32pm 
Does anybody know what the new down special plant does? I can't seem to figure it out.
FelixBlobDev  [author] 14 Oct, 2023 @ 8:13pm 
@king of pronouns
Thank you so much! It means a lot to be considered one of the best, haha!
Also, if you like the mods, make sure to give them a like! It helps them get seen even more so that more people might discover them!

Still, again, thank you and glad you enjoy the characters! Make sure to check out all the 20+ we got so far. :)
Theodore Masters Peterson 14 Oct, 2023 @ 6:41pm 
not lying when i say you might be the best ROA content creator, up there with huang how did i not check out these mods sooner
FelixBlobDev  [author] 14 Oct, 2023 @ 8:22am 
@champagne.daniel
Yes! I didn't really want to remove it, even if the new DSpecial plant is a bit more useful most of the time. After having a seed planted you can get the fruit tree by just taunting next to it!
champagne.daniel 14 Oct, 2023 @ 8:02am 
does the fruit tree plant still exist?
FelixBlobDev  [author] 14 Sep, 2023 @ 10:49am 
@ReverieMotif Oh no problem at all! It's just nice to hear when people enjoy the characters, and I always put a lot of work into maintaining the roster. So I try to fix any issues that come up, haha!
ReverieMotif 14 Sep, 2023 @ 10:20am 
Hey, thank you so much for responding so soon and releasing a patch out of nowhere like this! I'll say anything else if I encounter any other problems as I think I'll have time to play today. if you hear nothing, no news is good news! Again, thank you so much
FelixBlobDev  [author] 14 Sep, 2023 @ 10:10am 
@ReverieMotif
Released a quick patch already, so I hope it helps! Let me know if you encounter anything else!
FelixBlobDev  [author] 14 Sep, 2023 @ 8:57am 
@ReverieMotif
Hi, glad you like playing as Aria! Always nice to hear, particularly with the OC characters, haha.
As for your crash though, in my experience it is kind of a Rivals/GM problem? It's definitely related to loading too much stuff, and may also have some relation to how much available memory your computer has at the time (I can't confirm it, but when it has happened for me, it's mostly only when too much memory is being used).

So it seems to be some kinda combo of engine limitations and how much memory the game can allocate. There hasn't been any recent patches that have added too much huge sprites, but I did encounter this with Aria in the past so the final smash sprites could definitely be related!

What I can do, if you'd like, is try optimize said sprites a little more. I'll try that in a patch and then it might (hopefully) happen a bit less!
ReverieMotif 14 Sep, 2023 @ 5:02am 
hey, I really like this character and pulling off cool combos and using the seed in creative ways is super fun, she's a blast to play! recently though I've been getting a lot of crashes with her. I don't know if a recent update or anything made this worse, but whenever the game has to load sprites, it consistently hangs at Aria's 45 and 47, and when the game loads the character data again when entering stage select, the game frequently crashes with a memory allocation error as it loads those sprites again with the bytes displayed seemingly random (sometimes its 4 MB, sometimes 8 MB, and my PC is fine in terms of RAM, I got 32 gigs) and I don't really know if there's anything I can do on my end or if it's a limitation in regards the gamemaker. it only happens online for me, and it feels like a 50/50 whether I can actually get into a match as her or not, especially if the opponent is also playing a workshop character. maybe its something to do with the big sprites or the final smash?
Blazer150 30 Apr, 2023 @ 8:12am 
wario solos lol
boi 21 Dec, 2022 @ 4:51pm 
huh.
FelixBlobDev  [author] 21 Dec, 2022 @ 4:45pm 
@boi Both! She is my character, but I also develop games, and Aria appears in Super Gear Quest (a metroidvania you can find on Steam). She also appears in a few upcoming games as well.
boi 21 Dec, 2022 @ 4:38pm 
so is this an oc or are they from a game?
FelixBlobDev  [author] 5 Nov, 2022 @ 9:32am 
@champagne.daniel Canon, as that one needs more presses and is meant to just be stupid, lol. Meanwhile OP is also broken, but not "unbeatable and invincible" level of broken that canon mode is.

Though I'll mention that, at the moment, Aria needs a few tweaks to her canon mode, lol. So just be aware of that if you wanna mess with it.
champagne.daniel 5 Nov, 2022 @ 9:08am 
which is more powerful?
FelixBlobDev  [author] 5 Nov, 2022 @ 7:27am 
@champagne.daniel It's basically her anti-cheapie mode which can activate against certain characters (ex: Ronald, 100% characters, etc). You can also prevent it by holding Attack vs those characters if you don't want it.

And similarly, you can also enable these modes at the start of the match by holding Shield and pressing Attack repeatedly. OP enables first, and Canon only enables if you continue pressing Attack.
champagne.daniel 4 Nov, 2022 @ 3:21pm 
what is the cannon and op mode?
JamieTale 23 Oct, 2022 @ 6:21pm 
@FelixBlobDev plz make little buddy plush tomorrow :ujel:
FelixBlobDev  [author] 23 Oct, 2022 @ 12:53pm 
@to.aedan
Both are still planned! So don't worry, you'll see them release eventually, lol.

Also, if you wanna see how it's going and keep up with dev updates, then you can also find that in the BGW Discord server. That's just an option if you're interested enough though; if not then you'll see them eventually like I mentioned, lol.

Anyways all that said, glad you're interested in them! It's particularly nice whenever someone asks for an OC like Pauline as well!
to.aedan 23 Oct, 2022 @ 12:37pm 
FelixBlobDev, can you please make Pauline and Villager?
JamieTale 18 Oct, 2022 @ 2:34pm 
ah a discord link i wonder how it is in there

FelixBlobDev  [author] 8 Oct, 2022 @ 9:17pm 
@That one guy Oh I see lol. Yeah that sounds a bit exploitable, I'll try remember looking into that. Thank you though!
Pootis 8 Oct, 2022 @ 9:10pm 
Hey just wanna let you know that while using her in a team battle with Matt, she seems to be able to chain absorb his planet as it comes down, healing both of them massively.
FelixBlobDev  [author] 8 Oct, 2022 @ 11:51am 
@TTT132 Just hold Attack and then press taunt!
TTT132 8 Oct, 2022 @ 11:49am
