Re: Sex MUGEN 2.0
what kind of thoughts?it is not a bad idea to share them.
Well, okay. lets see here. Inspired by that edit of her(one of the kuromarus has it also, where there's a prompt to hold A, B, C etc.) that lets you choose which animation to use after a grab instead of always going randomly.
She is kind of annoying to play though, and could use some ease-of-convenience updates: That slowdown/bullettime during grabs and the curtains has got to go.
The curtains themselves could use an update - the could stand to go for most of the sex moves, or just do a single simple left to right pass instead of drawing in from either side, saved for actual supermoves, or a post-win animation. Something different, that's all, its just kind of annoying. The bed can stay though.
I'd like to see her get an 'exxx mode' type toggle, in which you tap a button(i'm thinking replacing taunt/hitting start), which makes her strip down and grow her penis like she does when initiating a grab. Enabling it can alter some of her other moves:
Basically like a slightly more lewd version of the Ryu->Dark Ryu transformation move. Takes slightly more damage, mild naughty alterations to her moveset, but in return skips the animations while initiating sex-grabs and gets right to fucking, and moves around with a floppy dong out while in it. (swap to nude sprites, may need some animation work - if she gets sexgrappled while in this mode, the penis should probably stay while she's getting it.)
For example, soul fist might trail hearts while becoming shorter ranged, but and inflicting the same stun status that kuromaru's breath attack does but for a shorter time because its a faster projectile.(i've noticed a lot of compatable characters masturbation poses/sprites when hit by this). I'm sure other people will find ideas here.
Not actually a supermove, just a toggle with some benefits/tradeoffs associated. Also a 'hold start while selecting pallete' to start in it like minotaur has with his dark minotaur mode. Pretty much just pre-triggering the stripping animation.
The thing about succubi is.... there should be some sort of connection with the partner or control over the sex, instead of just playing out the animation. Edits of kuromaru and later rapers give you the option of which pose and speed to use, and this would be taking it to the next level - same idea, little more convenience, funner to play, giving people a reason to use her - just by playing with the speed of the already-existing animations. Minigame-ish.
If you've seen that variation of kuromaru, lite I believe - where the jump-and-hum dash move will trigger the fellatio, and then give you another option to branch into A or B and into another position - its kind of like that, except a little more fluid. Minotaur has similiarities where you can change between positions within the grab.
So you could do something where you start with the oral grab, then move to standing, and have an option to transition to the bed pose if you have enough meter. Or just end if you miss the prompt or aren't full enough, and the match goes back to continuing as normal.
Basically it would change ryona morrigan into dealing most of her damage through sex and flow better, without being an instawin like bao's animations are. Same kind of deal, more fairness.
Specifics:
New supermove: Pressing a button(start) while in a sex pose takes a super bar, but gives a sort of super-cumshot animation and then gives you a pause to select another pose. So you can pay a super bar to keep fucking. Since you do damage and gain meter while in it, you want to hit it near the end of the animation, so you may miss your window if you wait, or you can use a full bar to unload several times in a row for the finisher. Basically a halfway mix of the heavy damage minotaur does when cumming and a special kuromaru move where if he kills an enemy in it, he cums like 4-5 times as much and leaves a giant puddle when he pulls out. (its the ground grab where you have the option to squeeze/lick/fuck and can pull off two if you're quick on the fingers. I can try to find a video or gif if it isn't clear.)
I actually did some admittedly unskilled edits ( ryona.moe.in/hinanjo/siokara.php?res=3301[/url] ) over here towards the bottom, #3533 specifically, so you can see what i mean. Special animation and then a small prompt window to continue while you just keep unloading.
Succubi are sex demons, after all.
I'd like to see the fellatio cum animation for morrigan improved: Its a little weak, I think that sprite's from slime and his game-over animation. Morrigan's supposed to kind of be flirty and funny instead, though. So Instead of using that, make it instead a giant blast that just covers the victim, leaving a pair of wide-white googley eyes blinking and conveying 'holy-shit i didn't expect THAT much', before they shake it off and recover. You know that cartooney bubble bath/foam pose where all you can see is the eyes? Like that, but with spunk. One-size-fits-all sprite, goes over the model, plus the laughing sound.
You know that victory ending pose where Lilith drops down from the ceiling, all tied up? Stick a dick on her, and have her leak on the loser. Its much more humiliating and more morrigan's style. Stuff like that.
What else. Those are the main ideas. Meter gain/damage may have to be rebalanced, but I think it would be worth it.
Is it possible to have an attack do more or less damage depending things like the victim's current HP or super bar, or your own? I'm not sure how mugen works, there. I've noticed a lot of sex moves deal super meter damage, and there's some potentially interesting things there I don't know enough about to say if possible or not.
I was thinking that you would keep the duration of any sex move the same, but use the A B C buttons to change the speed of it - with either slight variations on meter loss for the opponents or your gain, or filling a small love-heart meter for your opponent - just a small thing to the side showing how much they're into it. Just a little heart for that move specifically that fills up as you go, and if it fills all the way you get a small bonus - vocal audio que, a little bit of meter, or a stun pose animation after the stance is over.
I don't mean applying the minotaur bar - which is used for the whole match - instead for a single sexgrapple move at a time.(it would start out fresh next time) In which case you have the choice to try to fill their heart and come out ahead, so instead of just using the most damaging move at your disposal. Loose idea involved the best move for that at any time being based on your opponents meter - slow if they're at tier 3, fast when its nearly gone, that kind of thing.
Basically, reading the situation really well and getting the victim off means a free or cheap continue type of deal, making the character more engaging to play instead of just firing off move after move.
It might also be possible to co-opt some lilith sprites for her split-in-2 shadow moves, or to change standard morrigan 'behind the curtains super-finisher' to just be a bunch of shadowishpanels of a comic book each playing out a different sex pose. Oral, then standing, then against the wall, etc, until they all play at the same time. Taking that stock finisher and spreading it out so you can see what -really- went down in the non-pg 13 finishing version.
Sorry if that was too many words. Uhm. You wanted to see the ideas and I guess I brought a text-bomb instead. Oops
