<div class=“QuoteText”>if squigly gets a stage, then it obviously needs to be a graveyard, complete with hazy mist and silhouettes flying past the moon mortal kombat style.<br><br>plus they could make some really cool creepy music to go with it.<br><br>hell, perhaps it could just be the outside of the church stage that we already have, and you can see the church in the background, complete with tolling bell or something.<br></div>

And with Michiru Yamane? That’s instantly Castlevania-esque music if it involves a zombie girl

reading that squigs is a ranged stance character makes me wonder how she ll work with cerecopter as an assist. if her optimal range is midscreen rather than totally in your face then it should provide good cover to retreat in the same way it gives peacock a lot of room to escape as well.<br>

<div class=“QuoteText”>Okay, the more I think about Squigly’s “hog the spotlight” move, the more I get excited, because I feel like that is going to be a STUPIDLY good assist for any of the tankier characters.<div><br></div><div>Furthermore, the next character after Squigly is not only going to be a tanky character, but a tanky CHARGE character. Do you have any idea how amazing it will be to just center the screen on yourself with a Squigly assist while Big Band just sits there and charges up pretty much whatever the hell he wants without hardly moving?</div><div><br></div><div>And then on the flip side, charge moves are theoretically pretty good as assists since they essentially come out instantly, so Big Band will probably have some nice defensive assist options for a range character like Squigly.</div><div><br></div><div>I know this is all EXTREME THEORY FIGHTING but I can’t help it I am getting hyyyyyyype. And I haven’t actually been hype about any particular characters in SG up until now, even if I’ve always really liked the overall IDEA of the game.</div></div>

<br>Sorry to burst your bubble, but from what the video said I think that stage move thing is going to be a super, not a regular move. Notice in the video where the drawing of the singing comes up–it parallels with Mike saying “supers”.</p></div>

this is taken from the fundraiser main page.<br><br><i><span class=“notranslate”>“As an opera star, when Squigly sings all eyes
focus on her, forcibly shifting the game’s camera towards her. This
naturally moves the edge of playfield with it, dragging her opponent
towards her. No other game has a move like this, and it should open a
number of interesting tactical possibilities, <b>especially when used as an
Ensemble Attack.</b></span></i>”<br><br>i forget the names they used for what are commonly known as assists, supers, alpha counters etc, but im pretty sure this refers to your choice of assist. i do know that supers and DHCs are referred to as blockbusters and blockbuster sequels though.<br></div>

Yeah, that’s what I THOUGHT I read.<div><br></div><div>So, still hype over here.</div>

For some reason, double post.

We dead girls now<br>

i think that bella/squigs synergy is going to be strong with that screen pull move she has. peacock can get fucked basically lol.<br>

Anyone notice in the picture how Umbrella looks kinda pissed off at Squigly? I chuckled.<br>

I haven’t posted on SRK for a long-ass time, and i logged in to state that I contributed my 30$, and cant wait for the Steam beta. <div><br></div><div>great work, guys ~ this brings me lots of joy</div>

Squigly is on track to see the light of day!

Only if you get Peacock busy blocking an assist first, or else as soon as you start singing you get a laser in the face. And even if you do that, if she already had an item drop under way se can just drop it on you while blocking.

who said anything about playing squigs on point? use screen movement as an assist, then just spam the shit out of titan knuckle or H lock and load and plough through that shit. its completely foolproof!!<br><br>also this is what squigs level should look like.<br><br>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VyUkm5NW4Uw<br>

Yeah the Sing ability seems like blatant assist material, unless it has some actual attack properties of its own. Which it very well may, but I have no idea what it’d be.

I want Black Dahlia as a character so fucking bad. Also right on the verge of 200k. Too bad the next milestone is at 375K I think. Though there is a whole month still for donations, so maybe.

Another 175k seems doable. I don’t think anyone was expecting this to reach 200k in 2 days. <br>
