Karate, show solidarity with your friend getting into Smash and maybe he'll put in a good word for you the next time Marvel vs Capcom rolls around.

...It's the thought that counts, right?
I want to sacrifice my vote to nullify a Carnival vote, because Gene doesn't need a dumb fetish costume to humiliate enemies. :colbert:

If I can't unvote a choice, count this as a vote for literally any other costume or no costume.

I always wondered what is up with the demons all having a partial skull. It's similar to the ones you see Constantine. Anyone know what they're both drawing this inspiration from?

e: constantine came out a year before God Hand did, maybe that movie was the inspiration for GH?

Sounds plausible, although I bet it's another one of those obscure Japanese pop culture reference, or they went with this design because it looked cool or something.

Tangentially related, but way back I was doing a challenge run of Pokemon LeafGreen, and when I got to Brock I decided to do the comic entry a la God Hand. Then I realized how awkward it is doing human poses with a character whose face is their body.

Demons aren't fixed and the type that spawns is always random (technically this is true, I've addressed this in update 15).

But basically, the type of demon you get (either default purple demon, blade demon, spike demon, and lastly trident demon) depends on the difficulty level you're at (1, 2, 3 and DIE). From level 1 to 2, you have a higher chance of getting the default and spike demon, while from level 3 to DIE you get a lot of blade and trident demons, and sometimes a purple or spikey one. Just randomness, so from stage to stage you'll get an entirely different demon spawn or none at all.

1. When Elvis's portrait turns blue, Elvis himself actually also changes to reflect the portrait.

2. It seems like the 3 Stooges got weapon and armor upgrades between the flashback and their boss fight stage.

Update #25

Hey kids :eng101:

Air Launch Kick & Shoryuken follow-up against airborne opponents

This one is more of a trick than a real advanced technique as it lets you do an air launch kick/shoryuken follow-up against enemies who perform one of those weird mid-air backflip dodge.



You've seen me do this a lot and might have been wondering what the hell that was. When juggling enemies (punching them while they're airborne), they tend to turn berserk with smoke coming out of their ears then air-backflip. This is one of the very few AI's fail-safe mechanic to get out of your combos (others being them rolling on the ground or even crawl like the female enemies do), however there is a way to counter that by dashing forward as soon as the enemy air-dodges then buffering the air launch kick or shoryuken input (up+triangle & down+triangle). Turns out when an enemy is doing one of those backflips, he or she gets right at the perfect height for an air launch kick/shoryuken, that's why the trick works.



There's no way to predict when or when an enemy is actually going to air-backflip, you are gambling every time, so whenever you see me punching a dude then immediately dashing forward followed by a running kick that completely whiffs, that means I was hoping I could land an air launch kick.



Having said that though, there's a way to trigger one of those air-backflips, with the help of multi-hit moves; the AI was designed to air-dodge after you punch them a certain random X amount of times, but the more hits you do in a short period against an airborne opponent, the more chance you have for them to air-backflip. The rest is just reaction, but mostly gambling with the AI.
