Areas to Improve
Found a bug? They're aggressively unbalanced? Want compatibility with other mods? What about Runes, visual effects, etc.? Anything that you think I should add in future updates, here's the place to suggest it!

I just think this gimmick could be expanded on, really well done. The movement of the "swords" is really fun, I like how you managed to animate them just with movement. That's a great style for you to lean into.

11 frames for invincibility instantly on DSpec is straight up OP. Which is fine for meme level characters. I'm not complaining. And relative to cheapie they are not crazy. But maybe a reflector or super armour is more balanced. If you want to have something closer to base-cast.

Another thing that would bring a lot of flash without too drawing is having hitbox sprites. There's some default ones in the game. Or I recommend taking from spriter's resource from existing games. I took the Darkstalker's ones and use them for placeholders, but are very nice.

I don't play with the Final Smash buddy often, but sometimes. But it would be hilarious if it were a Pyramid+Sun Death Ray that just like, nuked a huge pyramid onstage. Maybe that could come with a meter from hitting Foresight?

Anyways, you're uniquely creative when it comes to WS contributors. It's nice to see you explore ideas that really mix up the gameplay.

Thanks so much for the feedback! It makes me really happy that you enjoyed my character so much. Idk when I'll have time to update this character, but when I do I'll definitely take your feedback into consideration! (I may just make an entirely new character with better animations, but tbh I don't know if I want to spend that much time on a meme character lol)
