this map makes me want to hitstun myself

well you don't need to change your team, the game does that for you automatically
you just need teams mode enabled at all
mikamisono5 9 Feb @ 5:12am 
It doesn't though, and even when we switch to the same team, we can't start the match.
Bar-Kun  [author] 7 Feb @ 3:56pm 
so rivals does something really funny when it comes to online where team attack is on by default while locally it's off by default
so just change the match settings to not allow team attack and you should be good to go

also have teams enabled it puts you on the same team by default

How exactly do you do this in co-op? It feels kinda impossible since you and your friend just take damage from each other, is there a way tto do this map with a friend and we both wont damage each other?
Bar-Kun  [author] 22 Nov, 2024 @ 6:44am 
you make it sound like i died
Agent10008 21 Nov, 2024 @ 5:05pm 
kinda wish he was a player but bar kun is gone :(

His second phase is... LITERALLY UNBEATABLE
Lasercraft32 25 Oct, 2024 @ 5:12pm 
The difficulty wouldn't be so bad if there wasn't so much hitstun in this game... It feels like if you get hit by one attack, you only a few frames to dodge the next one, and the timing is ridiculous.

That said, I've seriously been enjoying trying to beat it as random mod characters (fighting it as Regigigas from Pokemon is a highlight lol), I just wish the difficulty was toned down a bit (I can't even imagine what the hard mode is like)...
Bar-Kun  [author] 22 Jul, 2024 @ 7:49am 
fun fact, when you damage him he is more likely to attack faster
Dithak Barman 22 Jul, 2024 @ 6:01am 
What a perfect mod only if it did not have hp of a tank with a regenerating shield on top of it and spams like crazy
Bar-Kun  [author] 9 May, 2024 @ 5:04pm 
lmfao i recommend to be patient with your offense and cleanse the riptide status effect as soon as you can so he won't use his stronger attacks

also as for loading the bossfight, it's the first time i've heard of it (sorry about the late reply btw), so idk why it didn't load
Earth Monado 9 May, 2024 @ 1:04pm 
This boss is EXTREMELY difficult, like goddamn, I wasn't expecting it to be this hard, especially on normal difficulty. If normal is that difficult, then I don't even wanna think about Hard Mode... I think I might hate Childe now because of the difficulty of this, so uh... thanks for that I guess?
Slayer Hank 9 Mar, 2024 @ 8:46am 
Has anyone else, Been having issues loading the boss fight? or is it just me, i resubed to most of my workshop stuff, and unsubed and resubed twice to this mod.
Bar-Kun  [author] 24 Dec, 2023 @ 12:13pm 
first off glad you liked him! he's def the biggest project i worked on i think and it was pretty satisfying to make sense of the 3D fight for a 2D game

secondly, you can use him as a general reference for your playable version, if you want to understand how you can approach his boss attacks, sprite details and whatnot
BUT
(and this is a very big but)
i don't want you to just use any of his sprites as is or modify them in the release/beta/whatever wip of the mod, just outside of it

i also recommend joining the rivals extended workshop server (i'm there too) but that's more of a general note to make your life easier in actually making the character
Reina Thespia 24 Dec, 2023 @ 8:30am 
Heya, here's someone who didn't make a character on my own just yet.

I always wanted to make Tartaglia as a playable character in RoA and it's only after i thought about what attacks to give him that I found that you made a Boss-fight of him (which I absolutely love btw, GJ). Now here's the question: May I use some of the sprites you used for reference? I absolutely understand if you don't want me to use them as it is YOUR work but we could both agree that it'd be a huge time save.
Voltaro 29 Oct, 2023 @ 8:20am 
@amour614, i am sure some already work on making genshin characters. It just takes time. Please be patient.
Kyoka52 29 Oct, 2023 @ 7:51am 
Pls i rlly wanna see this as a character
Kuuro 18 Oct, 2023 @ 9:37am 
then i hope somebody make this a character
ElementalTrolll 17 Oct, 2023 @ 5:09pm 
sadge
Bar-Kun  [author] 6 Oct, 2023 @ 2:13pm 
nah
Kana 6 Oct, 2023 @ 8:32am 
ok but make him a character
Bar-Kun  [author] 11 Jul, 2023 @ 1:49am 
weird, but i think that's a good lead, it shouldn't actually touch him cuz i think i gave him like no hurtbox for those, i'll check it out when i have time but thanks anyways
D YellowMadness 10 Jul, 2023 @ 8:29pm 
The glitch I mentioned before doesn't seem to just be caused by Childe taking damage during the phase 3 intro. It seems to be caused by projectiles or traps existing near him during that time at all. For example, it happens if Owen's Boot or Villager's tree just exists nearby during that time. On the bright side, in either of those scenarios, he can still die so it's not a huge problem.
10 Jun, 2023 @ 1:51am 
I have discord! We can talk about cooperate right there!
Bar-Kun  [author] 10 Jun, 2023 @ 1:18am 
i do commissions yes, would you like to discuss this somewhere else that isn't steam comments? it'll be a lot smoother that way
9 Jun, 2023 @ 2:42pm 
Hey Bro! Do you have commission? Sorry to bother you, but I am prepare to find a person who can do pixel work. Thank you.
Bar-Kun  [author] 16 May, 2023 @ 3:31pm 
i have no idea how qua mario works as i did not develop qua mario

as for the air drop thing i'll need to see how it works, but for now i'm just working on other things but will probably get on a patch cycle soon enough
Schmampus 12 May, 2023 @ 9:31pm 
Unsure if this was on purpose or not but Qua Mario can't get any extra lives after jumping on stuff enough times. It'd be cool if you could rework the fight to where he could because this fight is actually friggin' impossible without that.
D YellowMadness 6 May, 2023 @ 12:11pm 
@Bar-Kun: I was playing as Snake & I called in an airdrop on the right side during the transition so the box landed on Childe off screen while I had no control.
Voltaro 6 May, 2023 @ 5:32am 
@Bar-Kun i experienced something similar but when childe reaches phase 3 the arena doesn't load correctly. I don't know what caused it in my case but i couldn't see him nor my surroundings, i had to fight blindly. I don't know if it interferes with some workshop characters.
Bar-Kun  [author] 6 May, 2023 @ 2:29am 
i've heard of the glitch but i don't really know how to replicate it, if you can tell me how you triggered it that would be great and i can try to do a quick patch
D YellowMadness 6 May, 2023 @ 2:27am 
It seems if something hits Childe during the transition from phase 2 to 3, it triggers an unwinnable state in which the room is still really foggy, Childe attacks immediately when the phase starts, & the fight otherwise goes like normal except he has no health bar & can't die. I triggered it twice with Snake's airdrops.
8-BitBoy ;P 22 Apr, 2023 @ 5:55am 
Playable Childe plz?? :3
shadowPR 28 Mar, 2023 @ 7:11pm 
can u make him playable pls?
DARKLORD 18 Mar, 2023 @ 3:04am 
pleas make a playable version
door-kun 17 Mar, 2023 @ 12:53pm 
okay this fight crashes my game a lot, so..
Voltaro 14 Mar, 2023 @ 11:40pm 
@axolotl it's an actual boss fight.
Spooper 14 Mar, 2023 @ 6:28pm 
is this a character or an actual boss fight?
Bar-Kun  [author] 28 Feb, 2023 @ 12:30pm 
best thing i can say is look at how each attack works and learn to dodge them, like the slash with 5 thunderbolts he only does if you are close to him, and the move where he dashes at you and can go into the air you need to either dodge really good or roll/parry at the right time, but never stand in one place or he will take advantage of that

so really the best thing i can say is learn the separate attacks and how he uses them
WhiteScarfHero 28 Feb, 2023 @ 7:55am 
I've accumulated a total of about 7 hours of attempts, and phase 2 still absolutely destroyed me. I'm really tempted to ask for a nerf, but maybe it's better to ask for tips on phase 2, his atttack pattern is just too random for me to know when i can attack. The character i'm using is Noelle (deltarune). Any tips on beating this boss?
D YellowMadness 26 Feb, 2023 @ 8:44pm 
@Artist of Seer: I've only managed to get over 2000 as Roxey Aoreolum so far.

Too hard :(
Voltaro 16 Feb, 2023 @ 1:27am 
@Midnite59, i can always use some suggestions. So let me know by DM using the friend chat.
Voltaro 15 Feb, 2023 @ 10:51pm 
"the game is made in game maker so you can't really use unity for this" Ah thanks. I don't know any program that can read text files and uses my spritesheet animations
Midnite59 15 Feb, 2023 @ 3:50pm 
@ElectroGamer Thank you for continuing this i have certain suggestions for characters if you need them
Bar-Kun  [author] 15 Feb, 2023 @ 11:09am 
probably not a good idea to continue the convo here but no you don't need game maker itself, just a program that can read text files

the game is made in game maker so you can't really use unity for this
Voltaro 14 Feb, 2023 @ 10:09pm 
"also i didn't really *have* a team, i just had some help from friends but 97% of what you see is me alone" I understand now. Question: do i have to use GameMaker? I am currently making sprite sheets in PixelArt cuz it's free. But the workshop tutorial refers GameMaker. I also thought i could animate my spritesheets using Unity, i may be wrong but i giving it a shot. Still am curious.
Johan 14 Feb, 2023 @ 9:39pm 
best workshop boss by far
