Here’s one I’ve personally been excited about! Continuing the trend of showing off how the original 6 characters have changed since we last saw them, we’re checking off the last two, Blue and Purple!

(Doesn’t ask me why the gif has such a low frame rate)
Blue finally has more potion functionality! His Special Forward Air allows him to use potions bubbles to shoot himself forward, and his Special Down Air allows him to summon a being from another dimension to grab and crush your opponent! Something that I noticed that wasn’t mentioned is that certain attacks seem to leave “splashes” in the screen, with lingering bits of purple being smeared onto the foreground for a short time (most noticeable after the arm crushed Purple) This also happens whenever Blue is being hit (most noticeable in the second gif).

Purple has received quite a few changes, starting with adjustments to his air physics and attack properties, which I assume means he’s more floaty now. He also has a sick new gold sword now! It will be used in various attacks, which although not mentioned, seem to be Forward Attack and Up Air Attack. He also has a new Down Special, where he zips along the ground with a rocket and gives the opponent an uppercut if they cross his path.

In other news, it has been confirmed that the latest showcase video is indeed a look at working online features with rollback netcode. ALSO, a Q&A is being held in the comments of the Kickstarter post with this information, where the dev team will respond in a future video.

I have a MacBook Air, 2020, macOS Version being Sequoia 15.7.7

It’s stuck at this, nothing is moving, clicking any of the buttons doesn’t work, I can exit the app and do other things but that doesn’t solve the issue.

I’m afraid of closing the app or restarting the laptop since I don’t want to lose the recording

Sprite done by u/The_Ultra_Nerd on Reddit

Poriceme is being implemented into a ROM Hack called Pokemon Carnelian, a collaborative art project where artists ca create their own Fakemon based on prompts every week, and if they’re lucky, their submission will be put into the game!

If you want to see the other Fakemon, or even participate yourself, you can join the Discord server here: https://discord.gg/AwQ2wHmYk

I didn’t pull for Paradox Drive AT ALL, so trying to beat the mission with only Wonder Picked cards was hell

Skinkaga (Fairy/Normal)

Pokedex Entries:
Skinkaga are constantly in the process of shedding their skin, which causes discomfort to them. It is not uncommon to see one crying.
Although the shed skin stuck on her body may protect it from certain attacks, the restriction of mobility and overall discomfort it feels in her own skin is not worth the benefits.

Possible Abilities:
Overcoat
Shed Skin

Notes:
100% Female Ratio

Renegekko (Fairy/Fighting)

Pokedex Entries:
Having finally broken free from the skin holding it down, it has now gained increased speed, power, and a renewed level of energy.
The process of fully shedding his skin requires the loss of Renegekko's tail. Fortunately, it will grow back in time.

Possible Moves:
Poison Jab
Guillotine
Supercell Slam
Scald
Slash
Snipe Shot

Notes:
100% Male Ratio

Dedscin (Ghost/Normal)

Pokedex Entries:
Dedscin is the shed skin left behind during Renegekko's evolution, brought to life through the lingering negative feelings from Skinkaga.
Some people may mistake this Pokemon for a dead Skinkaga, greaty upsetting them. Thankfully, the existence of a Dedscin symbolises the opposite, that a Skinkaga has sucessfully lived through their transition into a Renegekko.

Possible Moves:
Shed Tail
Poltergeist
Dragon Tail
Tail Slap

Notes:
Genderless, Appears when Skinkaga evolves into Renegekko if the player has an empty slot in their party and an extra Poké Ball on hand.

This line is based on a skink, a type of reptile that has the ability to change its own gender. How convenient for a mon about transitioning! The first stage, Skinkaga, is a skink in the process of shedding her own skin. Similarly to real-life reptiles, she feels uncomfortable in her own skin. (Now doesn't that sound like something a transitioning person would say?) The act of shedding skin is meant to symbolise the act of transitioning, which is what happens when a Skinkaga evolves into a Renegekko. To do so, she would have to shed her own tail, which is meant to symbolize the struggles that have to be endured when someone transitions. Some skin is left on the limbs of Renegekko, acting like the remains of broken chains. (OMG GUYS IT’S LIKE THE MUSIC VIDEO!!!) Finally, there's Dedskin, the shed skin left behind from evolution. It symbolises the "body" left behind after a Skinkaga "dies", or so some may think. Just like a chalk outline seen at crime scenes, it may incite the thought of death even when there's nothing there.

From Muno through Kickstarter:

"Exciting news - Animation VERSUS now has a "Coming soon" page on Steam!

Steam Page

Here, you can wishlist the game to show your support and be notified when the game launches! Getting a lot of wishlists will help our game reach more people through things like Steam's "trending" page. So, even if you're already getting a copy through Kickstarter, adding the game to your wishlist will help us out a TON! And spread the word to your friends or anyone else you know who has a Steam account.

Speaking of helping us out a ton - seriously, backers, THANK YOU!! This is a really big milestone for us, and it wouldn't be possible without the truly humbling support we've received and the sheer excitement you've all shown. And, personally speaking, working on this project is really a dream come true for me."

*cough cough* rabbit hole *cough cough*

Another big one! Continuing the trend of showing off how the original 6 characters have changed since we last saw them, we’re looking into Yellow and Green!

Yellow was definitely one of the most lacking characters so far, so now he has 3 new special moves, all based on mouse cursors! His new Forward Special is Pointer Cursor, a slow projectile that allows him to walk behind it for follow-ups. Up Special is Hand Cursor, a projectile that’s pretty similar to Pit’s arrows from Smash Bros, being controllable using the control stick or arrow keys. Charging the move turns it into a command grab! Finally, Back Special is Hourglass Cursor, a boomerang-type projectile that travels forward, stalls, and returns back!

For Green, he gains the full potential of his Back Special guitar slide! After hitting opponents with the initial shockwave, pressing the special button again allows him to follow-up with another attack! Up Special is a simple two-hit combo that scoops up opponents. Down Special is a guitar slam that allows Green to avoid attacks before crushing the opponent with an overhead attack! Forward Special is a long jump and backstrike, mixing up the opponent in case they block forward.

This is probably the only Teto merch I’ll ever own for a while, and since I’m a fan of both Teto and Pokemon, it’s quite fitting

TL;DR, goes in-depth into the some of the completed moves for TCO (it seems that a few are still unfinished), as well as new universal gameplay mechanics!

More showcases for other characters coming soon as well!
