The Mugen Fighters Guild - "I'll CRUSH you!" (2024)

"Don't you think I look beautiful?"

Flower from Battle for Dream Island is coming to MUGEN!

~~~

Like with David and various other characters coded by Dawn, Flower will be a 6-button character with a playstyle inspired mainly by the POTS/CVS style and Marvel Vs. Capcom. Expect her to have some fun combo potential! She's also got a super expansive color separation, have a look!

Before I go, here are some various animations I've completed so that this thread has more substance, lol. These consist almost entirely of Flower's normals, which I finished up today before making this thread!
ALL ANIMATIONS are subject to change and do not necessarily reflect the full release!

On a side note I love the biting animation.

Honestly this looks really good. I was a huge fan of your and Dawn's work on David.

I can see its a her, no offense but it looks like a he to me, however the animations are dope, I would just add some female aesthetics to her like lipstick or one of those female bow ties not sure about the word in english on the top of her head.

A lot of characters in this series are far worse in terms of gender confusion (from the most recent season you have examples like Pie, Gaty, Saw, and Lollipop who have rather masculine voices but are female technically).

Going into detail about why this character doesn't look like a girl in the traditional sense would go on for a while. I feel like redesigning the character to make it less confusing would be against the spirit of the source material IMO.

I also respect your opinion but theres also nothing wrong with a female char having those features, its been used it animation for decades to distinguish males from females when it comes to simpler looking art.

Ohhhhh, my bad, I though she was an original char, thats what I get for not reading the first post tbh.

Ooooh how did this fly under my radar??? I really loved your guys' David, so I'm super eager to follow this one!

First up is Post-Production. There's not a lot of animation to show off here, because all Flower really does is pull out Camera. I might make an animation for Camera being clicked, but until then, this is what we've got. There's no frame for Flower putting Camera away because I might just reuse the frame of her taking them out. The idea of this move is that Camera flashes and bathes the screen in white (though this isn't a fullscreen move, yikes!) If it makes contact with the opponent, they'll be stunned temporarily. This GIF doesn't include the flash, but it does include the cute face Camera makes when they're used!

Next up is Hateworthy. When Hateworthy is inputted, Flower pulls out Fanny and uses the force of her blades to propel them both forward, dealing multiple hits of damage. Afterwards, Fanny is discarded and falls offscreen, though you can't see that here. A lot of Flower's specials and hypers are VERY helper-based, so they'll probably be easier to convey once we can actually start posting gameplay clips instead of raw animations, lol.

The final special of the day is Lightfling. It's kinda hard to explain how Lightfling works unless you've actually seen Lightning in action. Instead of just barreling forward like any old projectile, Lightning will fly forward, touch the opponent, and in the few frames the opponent is stunned, he sort of zips upward and slams back down, delivering a serious shock! I wanted to make it look the way it does in the show, and it created this really weird and disjointed projectile idea, but I like it. The sprites for Lightning's attack are complete, but I wanna wait on showing them until they can be viewed in-game, or at least until I can throw together a mockup for how it looks. Until then, here's Flower's throwing animation! Again, subject to change. I might try and push her poses a bit more.

Here's a bunch more Flower sprites! I've also made a lot of sprites for other characters who show up in her animations, but they don't make as much sense out of context, so I haven't been posting them, lol.
First, we've got her frozen state (obviously based on her frozen appearance in BFDIA 4), as well as an animation used during a hyper!

Next up, three animations that appear in intros...

And these three animations are used for winposes!

Last but definitely not least, here's Flower's simplest hyper attack- it's a powered-up version of her "Hateworthy" special that dishes out a lot more damage and lasts much longer!

Time to waiting her, are you maked something funny at already?
