ever hopeful that his previously mentioned update really comes out

stop hating i would like to see you guys do better

annoying to fight

Fuck peat

Fun character, but the risk vs reward on grounded neutral special is a bit skewed for what the move gives him. He suffers more parry stun than he probably should, given how easy the move is to bait out from its rather long startup.

Also, is down special supposed to inflict absolutely pitiful amounts of damage on grounded opponents in particular? Something about the damage output on them vs aerial opponents seems unintended.

he is so chad

The link to the server for Villains of Aether doesn't work. On a different note, Peat the Mole does work, and he's pretty great!

This is the best character ever created.

Did Peat DE ever become a thing?

Peat DE coming shortly after this direct

Ok theres a slight bug with him and up special? Whenever he hits it, from that forward, peat activates the hitbox of up special even if he whiffs it. its whenever up special gets interrupted by an attack,i think.

👍

Peat-a, the horse is here

peat :)

where my peatheads at

I feel like this guy's not going to be high-tier if they made him official, but he's surprisingly not bad from afar, since he has both a long-range move (Unlike Bowser) and a way to easily get in with his Down B (also unlike Bowser). He actually doesn't hit as hard as you would expect, but he's super heavy, making it hard to knock him out of the ring.

Also, chonks are my favorites. ...Kinda disappointing that he's a villain.

Wow, that would explain a lot for his sprites.

Also very impressive that Peat is you first workshop character, he's got some very cool moves and his kit flows together pretty well. If you ever remaster him trying to give him a central gimmick that ties his kit together like Etalus' Ice or Absa's Cloud is all I can suggest gameplay-wise. Besides that he's almost flawless.

@The Ogrelord

Thank you!

It actually is a 3D model that has been pixelized! I did my workflow through blender and Photoshop.

I agree, If I ever make a remaster of Peat I intend to make the colors more diverse. He was my first rivals character to make and at the time I was unfamiliar with many of the color coding options there are available. Hindsight is 20/20 I suppose.

Really awesome character, he might not have any synergistic mechanics that tie his moveset together but everything flows really well. His animations are so smooth it's uncanny, feels like a 3D model that was rendered as pixel art akin to DKC.

The one thing I think could use a change is his claws. His color palette is a bit too monotone and he kind of blends together as one big brown blob. Making his claws white or a light yellow would make him more visually appealing and add a lot of clarity to his animations.

Fat mole hit hard.

holy raw

We release Patch notes in the Villains of Aether Public Server, https://discord.gg/kQm5n5Vhq9

where do you guys put patch notes? I picked him today and fair feels incredibly sluggish, I assume there was an update.

this is pretty much if a FGC grappler was actually good and not bottom tier like in 98% of all fighting games. i have no idea why capcom hates zangief so much

im sorry but can you please switch his neutral B with his forward B? it makes more sense that the more mobile option is a side B. ( i have died multiple times because ive hardwired my brain into assuming forward B is a mobillity option only to die while grabbing the air)

I'm a fan of FGC in general tho I don't really enjoy playing those games for some reasons.
But when someone add a character from a FG, I instantly try to mess around and have tons of fun with it.
this character is basically Hugo and, I'm not a Hugo player (I kinda enjoy him tho) but, I love a lot this character because he's basically a FG character potraited to RoA, which is a thing I love to see (not only in rivals tho, in smash ryu (and also all the other FG characters) makes a really excelent work because of his being a FG character).

@hemuth I cant join the discord server link. it said the link expired.

@Watermelon, Yes he does have victory music and it has been fixed in ver. 1.5

Is there supposed to be victory music for Peat that plays?

The glitch with Fspecial causing the game to crash should be patched out with the most recent updates along with many other recommendations from the comments. Thank you everyone who has left comments and kind words! I'm very happy that you all enjoy Peat! I try to keep a close eye on all the comments to help continuously improve balance and game feel. If you'd like to get updates on Peat you can Join the Villains of Aether public server where we post updates on all our projects. Link to the server is here [discord.gg]
Thank you everyone!

for some reason when i use him he keeps crashing the game of the person i grab with his side special. does anyone else have this problem or is it just me and my friends?

@author Can you please make his air grab (up special) has the same property as his ground grab (forward special)? The property being that when you grab the enemy he cannot escape until the two of you hit the floor.
Sometime, I like to do what I call kamikaze grab, where both the enemy and I are off stage and I use forward special to grab the enemy. Causing the two of us to plummet to death. Not only it is funny to me but it is typical useful in scenario where my health % is in the high 100 (Let's say 187%) and the enemy just respawned or have way better health% than me.

Good lord thats a big guy

this is by far my most favorite character! keep up the good work, yours truly,

aw hell nah its eggman's fursona

largest man in the planet

moleman

i can FEEL the hugo in this

Hey! Love Peat but sometimes he makes people go sideways in FFA and he caused a crash as well. Love Peat!

The grab makes everyone go sideways in free for all, and it crashes the game often

There's a bug where if you have more than 2 players and peat grabs someone, all the other players on the screen will rotate 90 degrees and have inverted controls

can't wait for the echo fighter, repeat

Mole gaming.

Good character ! But aerial Nspecial OP, and ground Nspecial crashes the game. jwej

The only request I'll make is a Potemkin alt. Every good grappler needs a Potemkin alt. <3

My boy Kragg traveled all the way to a water-country port just to get eaten :(

Impossibility great sprite work and attention to detail

why does gui look like hampter not complaining

Just in time for Pride Month :] LET'S GO LESBIANS!!!
