Princess' Stage: Babylon Kingdom (from Princess Fantasy Catventure)

Old version

New version

Spectators for the stage:

Since it isn't here yet, this is a level Chaoxys did a while back (page 1 in the TFR thread)

[TheShyGuy]

Does anyone know some of the details about what levels might do? For example, both Neko's and Chaoxy's stage look like they'd need animation.

[TomGuycott]

Animation is no problem. Chaoxs' level actually scrolls slowly in the latest build I'm working on

[Chaoxys]

Yeah, all I planned for with my stage was that the floor would move, and the BG would scroll with it, so it would look like you are on a treadmill, but in reality it's just visual trickery (in other works, the "movement" wouldn't effect any attacks in any way or anything like that). The little battery things would be in the BG cheering while the green crab thing would be floating in the jars.

I'm not sire if I should be bringing this up now, but, what if there was a stage that had gaps that you could fall through if you weren't careful (Like in the middle or on both ends)?

I believe level design is taking more of a Street Fighter, Tekken kind of route. Your idea seems a bit like Smash Bros'.

[TomGuycott]

Also the fighter maker edition would have difficulty replicating that. Walls on the other hand can be done, at least on each end. Foreground effects too, with and without transparency.

could there be solid objects on the battlefield?

[TomGuycott]

Technically yes, but I don't think you can jump on them, at least not without more complex programming. At this time I have no intention of doing in-field objects in my version unless it is a minigame.

I did see that a target test might be a thing. I guess my idea wouldn't be to far out of the realm of possibility after that?

[TomGuycott]

The target test would still be on a 2D field. The problem with the fighter maker is that there are limitations to certain things, including the plane on which the fighters are fighting. I can't even adjust the Y value of the main fighting plane. So for now in my version of the game it is pretty much out of the question. That kind of fighting style is better suited for a from-scratch version, and even then it completely changes the functionality and effectiveness of certain moves, such as Ocks' statue move which emerges out of the ground.

[TheMario360]

Well, I guess that's something that could be tampered with after you make the actual game. I guess I'll have to find another way to make my stage unique (When I get to that point that is)

That's arguable, considering "ring outs" are prevalent in Soul Calibur.
This is a 2-D fighter though, so I wonder if something like that could even be implemented without making it the most annoying thing ever, since cornering enemies on walls is fairly common in these games.

In 2-D fighters, the stages are essentially the same layout wise. There's not much you can do to make it unique aside from aesthetics.
