You forgot to mention "the wall slam still looks really bad."

I check this section of the forum almost daily.
But it gets boring after a while, to be honest, I wanna see someone else take a shot at the animations also, it gives me inspiration to spark up another animation. I don't know why, but it does. I'll try to find the inspiration to maybe touch up another animation here, or sukapon, or whoever floats my mind first. Thanks for the support though, it does make my time spent spriting worth while.

I couldn't agree more on the inspiration part.
I'll see what I can do here in a second. I'm planning on fixing the neutral b thing when he has someone in its mouth. It's REALLY bothering me.

Well Here You Go... Also I think many of the attacks and motions need to be redone such as the jump... All you would have to do is take some of the sprites from the intro cut out the middle and put color and BAM!!! It's that easy..

I just think we should redo half of his sprites so he's not so sluggish. Because, when was he ever sluggish or slow? What, because he appears to be a goo like substance he automatically takes like 5 frames just to jump (Not to mention his other moves)? He should be just as quick and efficient as Kirby, but have different moves than Kirby. Seriously, it would really make him much less of a pain to play with (And less of a pain to sprite).

The sluggish controls for Gooey could be my fault.
For most animations in the game, I make each sprite last about 3 frames in the engine (the engine plays at 30 frames per second so that is about 100 milliseconds per sprite). So in this situation, it is possible to make the animations play up to three times as fast if I make each sprite take only one frame. I also used a lot of interpolating between sprites to make them appear a lot smoother (like using scaling and rotation to make a 7 frame animation feel like a 23 frame animation, which is used a lot on Gooey in the engine). Gooey's jump animation in the game right now is 7 frames (using 3 sprites). It seemed fine to me, but some people say it feels too sluggish. This is another reason why I made the character designer. Because I plan to have people be able to edit and re-post the character files just like they do with the sprite sheets here (So people can edit the timing and speed of attacks and even the strength of attacks to make the characters more balanced).

I think the fact that Gooey is a ball of goo is a perfect reason to be sluggish. How nimble do you think such a thing would actually be?
If you do change/remove a few frames, just don't take it too far. The whole idea is to give him a unique playing style, as opposed to him merely being a blue version of kirby.

I understand why people want him to be sluggish, but imo, he seems to energetic for it to work. I mean look at him. His actions would make him look like he's bouncing off the walls, not trudging along. If anything why not make it just a little faster/slower and change his traction to make it different from Kirby? I think having his slip around more would be more fitting for him than making him slow.

He could be slow, but hit fast.

The only people that should be using it are people who are able to pump out great DLC. I know this sounds harsh but the game would end up looking like he who should never ever ever ever be named's game. Right now, the character designer can do two things: 1 - Create characters for the game and DLC (only for developers of the game). I will have to manually put each character file into the game which means that it won't be open to everyone. 2 - Custom characters (will have very limited access in the game, like you can't use them in all-star mode or whatever). Basically the point is to have a use left over for the character designer when the game is done and a reason to make the character designer user-friendly. I was talking about the first one when I said that people could edit the strengths and speed of attacks. Basically it looks like I will be the only one converting sprite-sheets into playable characters in the game. But I plan to let other people start making characters so it's not just me. (Trust me, I'm getting a little tired of animating every single animation for each character which almost takes more time to complete one character than I have spent on the entire engine) Thanked by: Iceman404

I think while Kirby is floaty, Gooey should fall fast and jump up fast like a bouncing ball. Gooey's character would promote bouncing around than running.

Yeah, I reckon it'd be cool for him to have a fairly low knockback too, seeing as the punch's impact would be absorbed a bit by the blubber.
Pros Low knockback, effective at jumping Cons Attackshave a rather large amount of lag

Attacks should come out fast, but recover slow.
