Epala

Epala from Super Sludgemon Islands slips in as a part of the RPG Maker Workshop Jam!


Super Sludgemon islands is a game I made in Pokemon Essentials (a kit for RPG Maker XP) for the Relic Castle winter game jam in 2021. You can check the games' forum page out here [reliccastle.com] to see more! The game might be a little rough but I'm planning on releasing an expanded version of the original game next year so I recommend playing the game then.



Epala can use neutral special to charge up a summon-able Sludgemon. This move can be canceled with jump or parry to store the moves current charge. Charges are stored in the slots above Epala's HUD. Press special while charging to summon the Sludgemon in the first charge slot.
There are four different Sludgemon that you can summon. With no charge you get the weak but versatile Sludgeling, with one level of charge you get Seagoon who flys and stays spawned for a long time, with two levels of charge you get the big and strong Birdbrawn whose biceps are so buff that you can stand on them like a platform, and finally with a maximum level of charge you get Vunkrator a giant volcanic sludge beast who can easily take stocks! Only one of each type of Sludgemon can exist at once. Sludgemon are all able to be pushed around and hit into opponents using Epala's attacks.
Up special teleports Epala to a Sludgemon but if there are none out Epala gets a weak boost upward. Down Special is a counter that if hit cashes out all three Sludgemon slots, summoning those Sludgemon above Epala, but since only one of each Sludgemon can be out at once you may need be aware of your slots if you want to counter effectively.

• Side special is jump cancelable.
  
• If Epala's tails hits a solid surface during back air they will bounce off of it and fling themselves forward.
  
• Forward air has an extremely powerful tipper if the opponent is hit in the target by the end of Epala's legs on frame one.
  
• If attack is held during forward tilt Epala slides backwards.
  
• Down strong can slide off of ledges and platforms and still be chargeable/active.
  
• Forward strong has three parts to it and each have a hitbox.
