Venom really lives up to his name because he is TOXIC

We are annoying

Really fun character

Sure thing! just glad to know you guys are really enjoying this character gameplay wise, despite the visuals being sprite rips

Played a bunch since my last comment, these changes are perfect! Thanks again!

We'll play more tomorrow, but from what I can tell these changes make him a lot more fair to play against and a lot more rewarding to land combos with. Thank you for responding and updating him so quickly, it made my day!

Alright, I made several nerfs based off your suggestions

although I decided not to lower the knockback of Nair, Fair, and Dash attack but instead raise the angle at which they send. (but you can let me know if that doesn't solve the problem)

Me and some friends did some testing, lmk if anything is unclear

Projectiles too fast
Longer end cool down on nspecial
Less heavy/easier to kill at higher percents OR slower movement speed
Slightly less range on most of his moves besides nair
Less Knockback on nair, fair, dash attack
Less time on the animation when fspecial lands, still same damage. Unfun getting locked into a 2 second cutscene for every fspecial.

If I did make Carnage I'd probably make him as a Fighter
idk anything about making a boss character anyways

Good character! Will you also be making Carnage? If so, i think he should be a boss character!

It's actually very good, maybe a bit of jank, but otherwise an interesting character... Lemmie friend ya.

As long as it's a cool character--
jk

but I'm no artist, so I couldn't draw anything
heck even doing this sprite rip wasn't easy (even tho it does look mad jank lol)

Yeah, it's just- really annoying fighting him with all the buff... If I may ask- would you be opposed to a certain character Idea I have in mind? Or is this about the only one you want to do?

ohhhhhhhhh right, I recently added an experimental buff to Venom,
giving him a damage boost when he grows Extra Tendrils.
kinda wanted the ability to do something more since it inflicts self-damage onto him in the process and you can take the Extra Tendrils off of him with an attack with high enough knockback

but I can remove the damage boost idea if its that bad

Now again, I’m sorry if I wasn’t specific enough, or helpful at all… Best bet is test it yourself by going against it. Thanks for replying anyways, sir.

in only about 4 hits, I end up being at 100 percent. There’s a discharge (I can't describe it, all I cam say it’s the attack that makes him invincible for a moment) attack that does a substantial amount of damage and knockback, nearly instakilling you at 50 or so. The strong attacks do, in my eyes, too much damage, as for knockback, I’m unsure. There’s also the air-spin attack or whatnot that has an annoying amount of knockback on it.

I’m no expert in these sort of things, but going against this character is very annoying… But I will at least praise the idea, and the execution. The sprite rip is pretty well done (other than it being very pixelated, but hey, you get what you get, it’s a 2d game anyways, doesn’t matter too much), and it looks like, with good nerfs, it could be a fun character to play.

Ok, I mean I'd need something more specific
Strong doesn't really explain anything

Very broken and imbalanced. Attacks are too strong. Please give nerf

Could you nerf him a little bit? My friends loathe me when I play as him because he is super strong.

I said knock knock let the devil in

Amazing moves and animations, but wish the art style didn't stand out so much

pls make dr octopus seriously

i love how he feels but the style made him stand out love the play style tho

@Donoyet Thanks for the update. It is much appreciated.

Damn man, i've been waiting for someone to add Venom for so long, thanks a lot honestly.

Just to say: Extremely fun to learn and use, VERY freacking powerful (can easily do around 100% damage in a few seconds if used correctly) and overall a complete pleasure of a character.

Only bad thing about it would be the actual visuals which kinda stand out weirdly from the rest of the game, but they're not too bad, can get used to it easily (the other colorations tho, could be better, but default is good enough).

well, we are waiting for spider-man ultimate in fashion, as well as a secret skin for him carnage spider, which wakes up to change his combat completely and mechanics will give him a new one from Tibe to venom, he is perfectly made by tibe

Thanks for all the support everyone!

I know the updates have been slow
but don't worry I haven't dropped this project

If anything I'd say Venom is over 95% done anyways, I don't have plans to add much more beyond the last few attack ideas I have. after that will probably be balance patches

absolutely love this character, he feels exactly like how venom should feel. please let this be one of the first spider-man characters that actually gets finished!

and also love this venom thanks for puting him in to the game

hay could you give venom the spider symbol please

For the love of god please don't give up on this character. Spider-Man was first but please don't give venom the same treatment.

@Donoyet That is awesome.
You actually read my mind. I was mean to ask about the wall crawling but I did not want to sound too much of asking.
Whatever you do, keep it up and all the best.
Below is a suggestion.
Maybe few of his move can actually inflict venom/poison that affect health on a short period of time. Similar to a burn effect. He is called venom for a reason. lol

I'm really glad to provide an enjoyable Venom
Even if I can't draw sprites or give this Triple A quality polish, I definitely didn't want to half ass anything about this
So thanks a ton, really!

As of right now Fspecial doesn't have an enhanced version yet.
I do have plans to add 3 more moves before saying Venom is finished!
maybe even add wall crawling as a stretch goal

@Donoyet, this is ridiculously good.
I really love the change you made.
IMO he is more than decent.
I think you killed it and honored venom key traits: Heavy, Dangerous Fast and more importantly Unpredictable. And I cant thank you enough for that.
For instance, when I do Uspecial, my opponent wont know if I do the simple version and the advanced version where he spins. When I do Dspecial, my opponent doesnt know whether I am adding more tentacles (for buff special) or I am going to explode.

One more thing: I noticed Fspecial doesnt have a buff version as opposed to Nspecial, Dspecial and Uspecial. Will there be any update to add that?


Thank you

Thanks!
Hearing that makes it feel worth it to continue working on this

So far I am LOVING the changes that you made

I know I should have probably waited instead of posting this as a w.i.p.
but i was excited for the new Spider-man 2 game releasing

As for now though, I wouldn't say Venom is finished yet. I still have a few more ideas left to add, but here's the basic idea for Venom's moveset. anything is subject for change

I just downloaded the mod and I know its new but I hope you make my favorite comicbook supervillain truly how his moves should be

the mod is good, but it has not been modified by venom. With some attacks, a cube appears, I understand it recently came out, please, please modify venom.

god I cant wait for what his special moves will be

Kinda hoping this isn't gonna be a sprite rip.
