Etna

Description
From the Netherworld to Aether, Etna, from the Disgaea series, is ready for some action!

-The Gimmick-

All of Etna's moves, that hit an enemy (with the exception of her specials) fill up a gauge at the bottom of you screen.
At 100%, you can unleash Etna's signature move, Sexy Beam, by pressing attack and special at the same time.


-The Specials-

Etna's up special, Flight of the Prinnies, does not go very high.
Lucky for you, Etna comes equiped with 2 wings, allowing her to jump an addictional time in the air.

Her side special, Prinny Raid, summons 3 prinnies in the sky,
falling downwards and exploding on impact. Those poor souls.

Her down special, Thousand Piercings, unleashes a relentless flurry of spear attacks, finished by one have blow.
The flurry lasts as long as you keep special and down pressed.

For her neutral special, she wields a gun.


-The Sprites-

95% of all used sprites come from a crossover fighting fan game called Card Sagas Wars.
You can download it for free here: https://cardsagaswars.wordpress.com/

She needs to be a little bit bigger and perhaps change the hitboxes according to her new size since the hitboxes seem to be balanced around her current size, good character nonetheless.

Fantastic character, great use of Card Saga Wars Sprite style, sorry that this isn't more popular it's a shame their are some people who are rivals of Aether Sprite style elitests, fantastic character !

i realized what u ment. my best solution would be to scale to 150. percent (rotsprite)
it would look a little less. quality wise but it will actually look better in game.
its better u try that than to leave Etna or any other CSW character to be so small. @Ydile

To touch upon your second point and also address @Twised Tempo's feedback, her gameplay flow, I'd like you to elaborate a bit more. Personally I like how she plays, but that might be my playstyle. Or bias.
Also about your point about making her moves play like card sagas wars, that is a very different game with a lot more moves, and many serving different purpose. It was hard enough making a plausible looking back air with the sprites I had access to as is, I was not really worried about making her play like she does in CSW. That goes for her whole kit, which I will not rework.
However, you are more than welcome to try creating your own mod character version of Etna. It's not like I called dips or smth.

@Nugear
Thank you for your critique. During the creation of this mod I tried scaling her up to 200%, however I didn't like it one bit. She absolutly towers over the main cast of the game at 200% size, so I left her at original sprite size.
I consider making a seperate mod and scaling her up, but this will most likely not happen anytime soon.

i dont give critique without a solution. i read ur latest post.
to increase the size just throw every sprite into MS paint (or any other program but MS paint is fast and simple) then use the resize tool and increase both sides by 200 percent. that doubles the sprite size.
all u have to do after that is re-add the alpha layer using photoshop or Gimp. maybe whatever program u use to do graphical stuff. if u have Asprite u should be good there.
if u do this u should be 100 percent fine. if u need help Dm Me. im busy making characters myself n im still learning how to code them. so i cant really help by doing it for you rn.
Good luck. but please please. dont leave this project to rot. cus i wont let it. u already started a character id have worked on. u should finish the job. Good luck.
Nugear 8 May, 2020 @ 10:12pm 
can u fix her size plz. Abysswolf and Orkamides would look down on her like all the other characters do in the game. also make her moves play like card saga wars plz. her moves dont really flow well.
Besorah 6 Apr, 2020 @ 2:24pm 
just a bit of feedback: moves dont really flow well and are a bit too slow in my opinion. otherwise one of my 3 workshop mains

@Delta_88 Glad you like her!
As stated in the description, all sprites i used came from a diffrent game, so that was her original size in that game, which worked well there as they had a much more zoomed-in camera. so it was either this size or double that size, as you can't really resize pixel art that well.
For D-Special, it is easily parried yes, i noticed that too during playtesting.
Thanks for your suggestion, I gonna look into it.
