I hope you were waiting for something good...


Captain Viridian from the 2010 classic "VVVVVV". Flips into Rivals! This appearance is based on the one they take in Indie Game Battle. The moveset is original but takes parts from both indie pogo and game battleTheir gimmick involves flipping their gravity and using gravity lines to flip other's knockback. When you flip you also flip aerials and specials (two of them lol) To regain your nspecial, you have to either double jump, hit someone, or touch the ground. Recovering is recommended to doing a flip, wall jumping, and then flipping to get back on the ground.

That /does/ sound pretty fun, ngl.

maybe i could make it so nspecial has no cooldown and you guys could go absoutely nuts with it, it was really fun when I didn;t have a cooldown

Uuh, don't click whatever that link Steam decided put into my comment there. I have no clue what that's about. .-.

A www, don't talk like that-

The lack of motivation is understandable, as an artist I always deal with the roller coaster that is trying to find the motivation to continue my work, but I and many others share the sentiment that your Viridian isn't bad at all, his neutral special is just a bit wonky to us effectively. I'm not a modder, the farthest I've gotten with stuff like this is just making sprites, so I can't say for certain whether or not my suggestion for his gravity-flip would "fix" it, but I hope you rise from the rut you've fallen into and see that what you made isn't as awful as you think it is.

I'm sorry if my previous comments came off as rude by the way.

i know how badly i messed up viridian, but I don't change anything because I don't want to. He sucks and I can't have any motive to help fix what has already became such a dumpster fire of a character.

I genuinely don't know what could make this a good character considering the gimmick

Missed opportunity with not letting the side-special projectile bounce off the gravity trampoline too, but besides those two things I really like this Viridian.

I don't get why you can't just press B again to flip gravity back? Having to jump or air dodge or hit someone before then seems needlessly complicated. I bet it'd feel a lot better to use if you were just allowed to flip gravity twice, then need to touch the ground to recharge it with some exceptions like the up-b line.

you tap the jump button or airdodge, or touch a line, or hit someone, and then tap nspecial to flip back
