I just want an honestly cheap game and so yeah hope this delivers. I love cheap but Mahvel too cheap for doing too little.
The fact that it’s a fighter made by someone who plays fighting games, he knows what makes sense, he won’t give useless moves to a character, or lose their original, intended purpose.
The character designs, it feels like an all female darkstalkers in terms of sprite personality.
And this:
Cerebella.
Not sold on this game (not a fan of the art or all female cast), but THAT IS FUCKING SICK.
I’ll try before I buy.
I first heard about this game through an article on Kotaku. At the time, Filia was only character shown. Being 2D immediately caught my interested as I’m a sucker for sprites. It wasn’t something I was interesting in playing until Cerebella appeared. A grappler that doesn’t have the traditional drawbacks a character of her archetype tends to have? Alright then! Also like her hat. She has a very great hat
honestly i was gonna buy AH3 when i found about this game that was half the price so i said F it.let me wait for this instead
I like me some 2D fighters. Oh, and the art style got me interested.
I’m a Tim Burton fan and the artstlye has his vibe to it. And it doesn’t hurt that Squigly reminded me of Hsien-ko.
I first saw the announcement trailer and the art style caught my eye. Then I heard Mike Z talk about the mechanics on the Giant Bomb quick look EX, and I knew it was something I had to keep an eye on. All the videos and media after had me hooked.
what do you mean by “was”? doint you mean “is” ?
i actually kind of thought of tim burton as well
but i didn’t really get hsien from squiggly even though i do like the way she looks
Peacock.
Painwheel. And the need for a new fighter that isn’t SFxTK. They need to get that whole act together.
Valentine and Peacock have the two best Level Three supers ever. Fuck anyone who says that the extra cinematics 2.5D allows for make for better super aesthetics (yes I have had somebody tell me this in a 2D vs. 3D debate).
Pixel-art ftw, man. I’ll always be in love with SNK games as long as they doing it oldschool way. Amen to that.
Good. I’m looking for other people that like Scarywheel also. I love just how eerily cute she is. LOL. It’s good to have just a total hard ass girl character for once instead of always conforming to looking beautiful. Dat Mankind girl.
You ever heard of my girl Juri Han? Bitch is crazy I’m also considering Valentine though. You just can’t deny that super of hers.
She’s still too pretty and not disfigured enough. Doesn’t have metal piercing out of her skin and leatherface with evil eyes. I can see why Juri players would like her though. Dat evil stuff.
In a site about Japanese animation many months back, one animator mentioned that he took part in the animation of Skullgirls. I had no idea what this game was about till, I looked at it and it looked interesting. that guy is amazing btw, he even worked at Sakamichi no Apollon and made a genga for this

Heard about it way back when, didn’t care about it.
Saw it at Evo2K10, looked cool but was more interested in Marvel.
Saw Evo2K11 presentation/QA session, started foaming at the mouth. Looked like they were doing everything correct w/ the game, from gameplay mechanics to netcode to little things like holding start to pause.
Flash forward to present day. Going insane waiting the next two days out. Strongly considering NyQuil binge to make time go faster.
