Double's walkthough is out! (Part 1 and 2).

I actually did a few animations for this character, so it's great to finally see her in action

Havent been in this thread for a while.

Wow, Ms. Fortune's new design and her playstyle is interesting. I wonder what she would have played like before? probably typical fighting game catgirl. She's much more original now, and probably more in line with the outlandish stuff the others can do.

Interesting how the head is a seperate hitbox. but it takes half damage at least.

Also i see they still included her original design's color pallet as an alt color. No surprise really.

Also saw all the trailers they had up. Wow. Cant wait for this.

Time for me to play the wild guessing game!

Let's see...

[spoiler=Acievement/Trophies answer (NOT 100% accurate)]Threads of Fate - Play the through Story Mode and get every (initial) characters' true ending.
Sküllgirls - Play through the Tutorial.
Prolix - Taunting?
An Ensemble Cast - Create 3-man, er, woman team of unique characters.
Instant Hair Dash - Sounds kinda obvious...
Real Circus Damage - Might involve Cerebella's throws or super throws.
The Kitchen Sink... - Peacock.
Good Hunting, Commander - Parasoul's Black Egrets
Getting A Head In The Game - Pop Ms. Fortune's head off.
My Pain Will Be Visted Upon You - Use Painwheel's retaliation move.
Medical Board Will Be Notified - This involves Valentine...
Toil and Trouble - Might be that super move of Double showing off the DLC characters.[/spoiler]

My 800-1,200 MSP will be well spent for this one.

I was browsing through YouTube for any new Skullgirls videos, then I found a clip of MikeZ at ABC News talking about the game. My reaction: "What the whaaa?"

Posted on: March 11, 2012, 08:45:25 PM

Xbox.com's Marketplace says GET SO ZETTA HYPED!
Please fighting game gods, let this be true.

VixyNyan · **Reply #104 on:** March 15, 2012, 12:06:00 AM

When a game is on xbox.com's marketplace listing, it's very much true.

So yea, April. Look forward to it everyone~ (also Sine Mora and Rayman 3 next week~)

No worries. We will get the game anyway~

ViperAcidZX · **Reply #107 on:** April 05, 2012, 08:24:45 PM

There goes the only thing planned on doing on my Spring break (April 2-6).

I'll still buy it though...

Posted on: April 02, 2012, 09:55:13 PM

I'm surprised that no one mentioned the 8-bit love ~~of an April Fools joke~~ for Skullgirls Reverge Labs was cooking up.

Gaia · Quote from: Gaia on May 07, 2010, 12:30:32 AM

Well, if it's the NGPC prank, all I gotta say is.. FREE SPRITES, GRAB 'EM WHILE YA CAN!

And another thing, wouldn't the topic be changed to Abdomen = Fighting game PLUS Infinities MINUS Ladies on April Fools? That would've been crazy to hear of an all-star caste of an all-male hoedown that focuses on infinities as it's main gimmick. I would've loved to see how much Reverge Labs would've made a laugh outta that.

I'm guessing you saw the gender-bent fan-art of the cast they posted at their website recently, too.

Also, Double's trailer was leaked to YouTube, and HOLY JUMPING BOSOMS BATMAN...

Ah, so she's just a cheap recycle character. I was expecting a bit more out of that, given her shape shifting ability could be used in a much more creative way, say like Arakune from BB.

Not quite. Double's moves actually come from attacks that were originally thought up for each respective character she morphs into that never made it in the characters' development. Take Parasoul for example, she has a pistol but never uses it herself in the game. Double on ther hand makes use of Parasoul's pistol. Other examples of recycling moves that never were includes Cerabella's hip-lunging attack, Peacock car-ramming super, and Filia's Sub-Zero slide kick (it even has similar execution command to boot) and so forth. The same could be said for Umbrella and Squigly.

So basically, any moves that were designed for the characters but were left out in the final process, became moves for Double.

VirusChris · **Reply #113 on:** April 09, 2012, 06:34:48 AM

So in a way Double is a mimic character that's not a mimic character?

KoiDrake · **Reply #114 on:** April 09, 2012, 06:59:58 AM

Yup, that's pretty much what she is. They recicled the basic punches from other characters, but the rest is like Viper said, unused moves from the other characters.

ViperAcidZX · **Reply #115 on:** April 10, 2012, 01:11:23 PM

It's April 10th, and today is the day PlayStation 3 owner gets Skullgirls for $15. Xbox 360 owners aren't too far away from playing this game as it will be available on Xbox Live Arcade tomorrow for 1200 MS Points.
Well, back to playing the waiting for me... 23 hours left...

Gaia · Quote from: Gaia on May 07, 2010, 12:30:32 AM

$15? Not bad. Thing is.. Once again the TV is occupied, guess I'll wait out.

ViperAcidZX · **Reply #117 on:** April 11, 2012, 01:15:08 AM

Guides (*pdf) here!

Least these will be useful until the move set is patched into the game later.

Karasai♪ · **Reply #118 on:** April 11, 2012, 02:58:18 AM

15 bucks?

man screw this [parasitic bomb] im not buying the game.

lol just kidding im going to buy this anyways

TSR works fast, does it?

OBJECTION MAN · **Reply #120 on:** April 13, 2012, 04:20:01 PM

If by fast you mean copying and pasting open image files from the game build, sure.

All the sprites are seemingly tiled, and encrypted or compressed in some manner. People are still trying to decode, palette, and assemble them.

Good thing I got my corded controller back so I can unlock them myself and focus on getting better at chaining moves afterwards. So I'm making quick progress with Achievements ~~unlike my Radiant Silvergun Achievements~~, and if I play my cards right, I should get them by tonight. But getting "An Esemble Cast" is another problem for me...

Oh, and Umbrella's "KFC combo" line in Parasoul's story cracks me up.

In case no one got the joke, she was referring to Parasouls legs, thighs, and breasts. No wonder Parasoul gets annoyed by her sister...

Posted on: April 13, 2012, 08:28:57 PM

hmmm I always thought it was a reference to Marvel vs Capcom 3 lol

ViperAcidZX · **Reply #124 on:** April 20, 2012, 03:44:43 AM

It actually is, I was only thinking of legs, thighs, and breast meat from KFC until I found it wasn't. I should be playing that more often...

But characters' stories just leaves way too many questions than answers, like...

[spoiler=STORY SPOILERS AHOY!]In Painwheel's story, she gets thrown out by her parents once they saw what a monster she unfortunate became against her will (and it's pretty damn heart-breaking too), yet she's back in school with Filia in her ending. What also bothers me is that how come Carol didn't try to take off her mask? If she'd done that, I bet her parents would be more sympathetic about their daughter turned into a rage-induced monster with a hulking pinwheel of death on her back and let her explain what happened.

After what Cerebella did to get the Life Gem from Ms. Fortune, does this mean Ms. Fortune's dead to rights? And is Cerebella guilty for not only for committing murder, especially for someone who's not outright evil, but does she realize what Ms. Fortune said to her before being crushed alive got her and beginning to realize she's just some pawn to a mafia mob boss?

Out of everyone's conclusion, Filia, Parasoul, Valentine (and I may be forgetting someone) became the next Skullgirl candidate. Question is, who will become an ungodly powerful entity of mass destruction first?

Valentine's purpose of siding with the enemies: Her way for Painwheel to kill her so Valentine can reunite with her fallen comrades in the after-life ~~rather than commit suicide and risk going to hell~~? And with Valentine gone, does this mean Carol has no purpose anymore?

And what the hell was Double's ending all about, especially the devouring everyone alive part?

Does this mean they're all dead or we've been playing a game within game entire time. Then it again, it shouldn't surprise me that Alex Ahad is influenced by Studio Gainax, which if you ask me, would make this Gainax: The Fighting Game. /talkingoutofmyass[/spoiler]
