ideas and things to look at


* Dash Attack
something I would like input/ideas on is dash-attack. It's very true to the animation (Hitting forward for only a few frames, and then back) but this can make it very frustrating if it whiffs when it seemingly shouldn't.
The original idea was to have it so that first forward hit would knock the opponent backwards into the second back hit. That second hit would angle the opponent straight above the ground, leaving them open to something like a ftilt.

though like i said, it seems it whiffs alot. Should I give it the treatment I gave D-Smash, where Mario spins rapidly rather than just once? If I do this, I'll make it a weak multihit - around 6-9 damage for the whole move perhaps.

* Mario's Size
I kind of don't understand this one? I don't know why there's alot of requests to resize him. If it's more of a gameplay problem, then maybe it would be an issue to me. Also, if I were to resize him, it would honestly be a lot of work. I would essentially be remaking the hitboxes for every move, as well as updating the sprites for everything. So this seems very unlikely.

*Partners
I tried sorting out the partners by "power" of their moves, but should I make the order based on range instead? It would be something like Bow>Parry>Vivian>Koops, since people see Koops as more useful than Vivian. It's alittle funny, as I expected that he would be more useful, so I gave him less damage and knockback as a result, but it still ended up being better than Vivian.
