special moves

neutral special: "epsilon void"
Send random letters of the alphabet* into a pocket dimension, then summon them as projectiles. Each letter has a different effect.
*randomness may or may not be heavily weighted in favor of certain letters.

  • Charge by holding special. Store charges by pressing parry. Each additional charge will fire an additional projectile when released. Can be canceled early with parry, but ALL charges are spent on release, even if canceled.
  • Uncharged, the single projectile has limited range. Range increases with additional charges - as well as instability.
  • You can hold as many charges as you want. (The practicality of this is debatable.)
  • Counterintuitively, it becomes easier to fit more letters in your pocket dimension if there are already a lot stored.
  • Avoid getting hit while using this move, as this will cause all stored charges to be lost, and you will experience extended hitstun.

forward special: "danger noodle"
Reach forward to grab your opponent, slamming them into the ground for intense damage.

  • The outer 50% of your arm cannot be hit during this move's active frames, making it good at stuffing approaches. During recovery, however, most of your arm is vulnerable.
  • You can gain more control by using this move in the air.
  • I know how to fix the "bug" with down special, but I think it's funny, so it's staying in.

down special: "progeny"
Detach your head and bury it in the earth. After a few seconds, it will erupt into a pillar of energy which reaches all the way to the top of the screen.

  • The planted head will crackle and swell shortly before detonation.
  • You can control the distance at which the head emerges by holding left or right.
  • The "fuse" on planted heads will randomly be 1.5, 3, or 4.5 seconds.
  • This move has an extremely high maximum range. However, it also has a high minimum range. Try to use this to push aggressively toward your opponent if they like to stay at a distance.
  • In the air, this move will cause you to descend at incredible speed. I'm not sure if this has any uses, but I guess I felt like it was important.

up special: "thesean division"
Eject your head from your body, then reconstitute yourself with explosive force.

  • The start of the move will launch upwards, allowing the second hit to connect. However, you will have to predict the opponent's drift angle.
  • Your discarded body is a projectile.
  • If you use down special and then up special, are you still you?

ultimate attack "flo wretsub"
Available upon reaching 100% damage. Lunge forward and grab your opponent, finishing with a blow that deals immense damage.
You can activate this attack by pressing down -> left or right -> down -> left or right -> any attack button. It will likely be easiest to do down-back-down-forward.

  • Avoid getting parried while in the lunging phase of this move.


other things

crawl
You can crawl.

jump canceling
You can jump out of certain moves on hit. This includes:
  • Up tilt
  • Dash attack (ground or air)
  • Up strong (air)

dash attack
Dash attack has an assortment of unique properties, including the ability to cancel its startup with a jump. Be careful around ledges, unless you're confident in your ability to intercept the opponent offstage.

air strongs
Air strongs




ok, have fun!!

Thanks all for the positive feedback! I wasn't exactly expecting this to make the front page lmao. If you run into any major (unintentional) bugs let me know, I can roll out a patch.
