The other day we found out that #2XKO_Darius j.S2 has a fixed duration.
Basically regardless of how high up he does the move, he's hitting the floor at the same frame, he doesn't care.

I found the sauce with #2XKO_EKKO and #2XKO_DARIUS
Freestyle fuse

Many way mixup/reset sequence

It turns out that most of the #BlacklightGame files are just stored as straight up .png or .mp3 files so they're super easy to replace.

Anyway here's a Dan combo.

:)

#BlacklightGame

Another Cornell combo
This time in the corner if you do the easy confirm which is basically anything into 214B

The idea here is that everything is auto-timed, no delays until the very last 3 or so hits. You can replace them with immediate airgrab or end on j.D instead to avoid that

Making use of gravity scaling later in the combo to allow combo parts not usually possible.

Air throw ender ensures safe jump regardless of height or gravity scaling

#BlacklightGame

I played around with Cornell a lot today so here's some findings.

This is a good midscreen to corner combo if you get the good divekick confirm.
214B at a very specific height doesn't spend wall bounce but lets you combo.

Everything here is really cool.

The game supposedly has ROLLBACK but we've really just been playing locally so we're yet to test.

The game has a guard bar that depletes much more when you air block.

Dedicated anti-air buttons are air unblockable.

Throws can't be combo'd normally but can be cancelled into supers, which may then open up combos.

Scaling on meter gain during combos and meter penalty after using meter.

This game sticks out to us because the developer clearly has fighting game experience.
There's a lot here that other indie games get tripped up on that this one doesn't.

Characters have really unique tools and clear pros and cons.

There's gravity scaling as an infinite prevention system.

We have, from left to right

- The zoner character with a GUN
- The grappler with big armoured buttons
- The jack of all trades Castlevania boy
- The guy with the extra gauge and EX specials
- The setup/setplay character
- The counters and strike throw swordboy

Blacklight on Steam A combo-oriented fighting game with a simple system. Players who are familiar with fighting games will be able to play right away thanks to its responsiveness and ease of understanding! Fly, run, soli...

Perth is currently having a good time (again) with Blacklight
store.steampowered.com/app/2244620/...

A 2D fighting game with a relatively limited amount of characters but a lot of thought put behind everything.

The game feels great and they recently ran a tournament at EVO Japan

#BlacklightGame

I think it depends.
Some of this stuff isn't obvious. If you get the P6N debuff and don't know it makes you freeze and do a cone aoe in front, ok, makes understandable.

I get frustrated when the boss says "I AM GOING TO CLEAVE OVER HERE" and 5 people get hit by it... 4 separate times in that pull

The shibari guitari

I don't think this particular print is still on their prints website though.
At least it doesn't show under a search for "Shuten"while some others do.

I wish thee luck

Searched Shuten Douji and grapes on safebooru and found this image on page 3.

Can't confirm if it's still up.

I had this game's last boss spoiled for me once by a friend who was using it as an example of how games had been spoiled for her...

I was half way through my first playthrough but she didn't know.

They're shipping is, Jerry?
Where to?
I can't leave town, I owe some people a lot of money.

I really appreciate your "I don't have time to make a dodge animation because I'm too busy doing combos" kinda attitude.

This one was where I peaked

I learned something new today.

(Recording my desk so she doesn't notice and change for the camera.

Maccie cheese

More maccie cheese but a bit out of focus

Finally some barely in focus shots of the final product.

Some crushed doritos added a few minutes before end of cooking time to add a crunch.

My phone camera muted some of the colours a little bit I feel.
It's a bit less pale in person.

Good dinner.

Everything together in 2 baking dishes

Those 2 baking dishes in my somewhat dirty oven

Put them all together and drop them in the oven.

I made too much for just 1 dish but this goes real hard as leftovers.

Liquid gold

2 distinct cheeses grated and mixed in a bowl

1 cheese grated in a bowl

A container of Kraft parmesan cheese helps above an evolving cheese sauce

Red leicester, havarti, good old cheddar or as it is here "tasty" cheese and some parmesan.

Melted butter in a pot

Flour added to the melted butter. Looks like scrambled egg

The scrambled egg looking mix is now wet with milk and looks like mashed potato. Wild

The roux is here

Making the roux.
We're getting to the good part.

There's a fun step in here where this just looks like mashed potato.
It comes right after the step where it looks like scrambled egg.

Cider bottle on the left. Fireball whiskey bottle on the right. Glass with ice and drink in the middle

Plain old pasta in a strainer

Started the pasta quite late intentionally so I could take a drink break in between.

An old mix a friend over showed me. Apple cider and fireball whiskey is just an alcoholic apple pie in liquid form.

Uncooked chicken in a pan with a masterfoods brand smoked and charred Texan style rub seasoning in the foreground

Cooked chicken in the pan looking nice and brown-y orange from that seasoning

We season some chicken with this cool store bought seasoning. Really go hard on that stuff. It's going to be mixed with so much other stuff that if you half ass it then you'll never taste it.

Cook it up

Cooked bacon in a pan. Yum

I don't know what to really post on this account any more.
Fighting games don't feel like they have quite as much intricacies to really lab monster into these days...

So here's a mac and cheese I made today, but by bit.

Starting setting with bacon

Unless...
