Umbrella [Character]

Description
This character does not have any placeholder moves and is functionally a complete character. I will be working on balancing what she currently has and add more polish before adding extra features.


Umbrella and Hungern make their way from Skullgirls into Fraymakers! (All art from Skullgirls digital art compendium)

Umbrella is a strange fighter that excels at grabs, methodical combos, and gratuitously large attacks. Beware though, she's light, Hungern's a living weapon and as such is vulnerable, and her little legs can only move her so quickly.
Use her varied kit of air stalls, long grabs, jump cancels, projectiles, and more to overcome her weaknesses and secure advantage.


Move showcase (will be removed once I add a showcase video, although progress for it is getting delayed due to patches to this character):

Light grounded moves:
- jab: a simple, three hit combo if pressed multiple times. If you hold up and attack during the 2nd hit, the move will be canceled into an up tilt.
- up tilt: fling your opponent into the air, leaving them vulnerable to an aerial due to its ability to be jump-canceled.
- forward tilt: a multi-hit fantastic for putting damage in mid-combo.
- down tilt: trips your opponents, going through shield and pulling them close.
- dash attack: jump forwards to hook your opponent with Hungern's handle, grabbing them and slamming them downwards (Yes, this spikes). This command grab can be blocked, and will slide off ledges.

Aerial attacks:
- neutral air: after some windup, start spinning in the air like a buzz saw, vacuuming in enemies hit until landing or being canceled (which you can do by hitting attack, jump, or up). Landing will launch enemies up, while canceling will send your foe down (and you upwards if you land it).
- forward air: a quick overhead swing. The bottom of it spikes.
- up air: open Hungern above and spin in the air, dealing damage with it and your feet while slowing your fall and giving you increased air mobility so long as attack is held.
- back air: turn around and unleash a flurry of kicks. Utilizes Hungern to stall in the air for the duration.
- down air: stomp Hungern open beneath you incredibly quickly. Hungern's tongue spikes.

Strong attacks:
- forward strong: swing Hungern like a bat, dealing hefty knockback and reflecting projectiles.
- up strong: charge up Hungern above you with an immovable stance (Super Armor), dealing damage while it's charging, before swinging down and launching enemies up.
- down strong: splash water beneath you incredibly quickly. Deals very little damage and knockback, but causes enemies to tumble and has exceptional hitstun.

Grabs/Throws:
- grab: Hungern reaches out to grab with his tongue a long distance.
- forward throw: Hungern spits out the opponent forwards a good distance.
- back throw: Umbrella turns around as Hungern spits, sending further at higher opponent damage than forwards.
- up throw: Hungern spits out the opponent without much force, before Umbrella kicks them upwards with high hitstun.
- down throw: Hungers spits out the opponent without much force, before Umbrella slams them down with Hungern's handle. (Yes, this spikes)
- air grab/throw: Hungern quickly reaches out to grab with his tongue, chewing on opponents grabbed before launching them forwards (and slightly downwards), and launching Umbrella backwards (and slightly upwards).

Special moves:
- neutral special: Hungern blows a large bubble which lingers in the air, slowly drifting forward.
- down special: Hungern blows a small bubble which drifts in a larger, faster arc than the large bubble.
(Note: both bubbles have a cooldown to prevent spam)
- side special: Umbrella jumps and surfs on hungern, who slides forwards quickly (and off ledges). This move can be jump canceled to start combos off of hits and help Umbrella keep up with the other, incredibly fast fighters.
- up special: Umbrella does a flip while opening up Hungern, flinging water in front of her as she soars upwards with increased aerial control. You cannot grab ledge before this move ends, which you can end early by inputting down. The very bottom of the starting splash spikes, and Hungern will bludgeon those it hits while going up.


Planned features:
- voice lines and sfx from Skullgirls (Umbrella's awfully quiet right now)
- command inputs for more unique moves
- a meter system to add in blockbusters (Skullgirls finishers)
- balancing (naturally)
- trailer-style video and move showcase video for this page
- prettying this page up as a whole

NOT Planned features:
- palettes

yeah i found the stall, but luckily it was a situation where you could only barely do it, so only a minor nerf was needed

I like the up-air change, can't stall forever anymore but it's still useful.

Rolling back did not fix the bug, and is therefore not caused by what I've done to the mod, but instead the fraymaker's update. I will be putting out my planned update for the mod, and will be requesting help from the devs in the morning.

BUGFIXING IS CRINGE
AcKnowledge  [author] Feb 6, 2023 @ 1:50am 
I've been working on bugfixing for hours and haven't found anything conclusive, so I've rolled back the mod version to one that doesn't cause the crash. Once I find and fix the issue, the version 0.1.2.1 and 0.2.0 changes will be reapplied, on top of other changes I made before the issue was discovered

There is currently a bug where she crashes the game after a match, I have absolutely no clue why and have been going over every change I've made since the crashes started occurring. Once I find the issue I will be fixing it promptly

good port, very fun to play, but the character crashes my game after every 1v1 match against a bot, and other characters aren't crashing it
