Enies Lobby

Description
One of the three major strongholds of the World Government, and the headquarters of the secret assassin division, Cipher Pol 9. This is the Island of Justice, Enies Lobby.

Stage Info
Basic: A simple flat layout, a la Final Destination.
Aether: Essentially the same as the basic variant, except there are little walls that protrude upwards on the sides of the stage.

Music Selection
This stage uses the music selector template[pastebin.com] by hyuponia. Songs are selected at the beginning of the match by moving the c-stick in one of the following directions:

(note: some of these tracks were originally made for the movie scores before eventually being reused in the anime in different contexts, so the names might not match the scenes you associate these particular tracks with. i included hyperlinks in case you want to check out what each of the tracks sound like!)

Ramble
getting closer to finishing luffy!!

at the moment I'd say he's close to... 70% done? somewhere around that, i don't rlly have a proper measuring system for these estimates

just need to get f-tilt, u-tilt, d-strong, and both f-specials done. then i need to finish the animation wips for some of the moves, program d-special, and do the rest of the movement/misc. animations i'm missing. after that, it's smooth sailing and i just have to do balancing and some extra art stuff i wanna do.

(also additional disclaimer: luff uses a mix of heavily edited sprites from grand battle: swan colosseum, in addition to a bunch of custom anims i've been working on. the nair frame from the basic layout thumbnail was done by me, but the dair frame in the aether thumbnail is from the swan colosseum game. just thought i'd put that out there since i don't want to make it look like that was mine!)

this here was the last little side project i was working on before i got on break and started prioritizing luffy. been taking a lil break from working on luff since i got burned out a while ago, so i decided to finish this up. (don't want another project ending up in wip limbo 😔)

anyways if you're reading this rn and currently experiencing burnout, don't be afraid to take a break. no need to feel guilty over not being productive either. your #1 mission rn is to get some rest and take back your sanity!!

hope this helps the 0 people reading the ramble section. B)

Credits
(big thank you to vgmdb.net for helping me find the proper credits to the tracks!)
  • Luffy VS Rachet Round 1, Giant Stronghold, Takeoff!, and Karakuri Castle, Transform! were composed by Yasunori Iwasaki (these tracks are commonly mistaken to be done by Kouhei Tanaka)
  • Spirited Swordsman Zoro (Also titled "Gyakuten! Usopp & Chopper") was composed by Kouhei Tanaka

ps: please organize and name your layers properly. don't be like me !!

(also placing an obligatory "one piece" tag here in case anyone's searching for OP content.)

@Zyphyris Makes sense to me, I've wanted to make a character myself at some point, but school certainly takes up a lot of that time. Still, quality > quantity, so take your time

As for how long, at this point I'm not sure but I hope I'll be able to hyperfocus on him after I'm finished with something else I'm tied up with this month. The custom animations have been the main thing dragging development haha.

@Watermelon I was uploading some vids to "Project Backlog" on YouTube some months ago, but school kinda slowed things down. There's a few updates I posted in the community tab, and if you're in the RoA Extended Workshop server, I posted a couple updates in the #works-in-progress channel as well!

Anywhere were we can see updates of Luffy's progress? If not, how long do you think until he'll release? Looks like such a fun character

also did not expect it to release the same day you dropped chopper and katakuri haha

A simple stage, but the setting makes up for it. \o/
