Searching for people on Steam is sweaty asscheeks.

I'll play you.

 

[Roubjon]

What up guys. If anyone wants to play, I'm free right now. Don't expect expert playing though. I'm trying to learn Parasoul, so doubt I'm going to be screwing up all the time. The steam name is Roubjon

And on this final day of Beta they give Squigly an amazing set of new palettes (and removed a lot of the bad ones.)

 

[QisTopTier]

Sweet I'm no longer limited to using the black/green one only now XD

Also that beetlejuice one is gawdlike

Neat! Always fun to try and guess the references, though there's plenty I don't see. Here I go:
-Top row, third from left is Lydia from the Beetlejuice animated series.
-Top row, second from right, is Cream the Rabbit
-Middle row, third from left, is Shego from Kim Possible (?)
-Bottom row, third from right, is either Zone Tan or Gaz from Invader Zim.

Edit: I don't know the color scheme, but is there a Wicked Witch of the East in there? The striped socks are just asking for it.

Middle row, first one from left looks like Jane(?) from Disney Tarzam

Shame that there is no more earthworm jim color...

Probably all old news to you guys, but we've got a Squigly walkthrough with Mike and Alex up on GT today.

[Astarte]

That zonetan color

 

[Nyoro SF]

Is that black and white color for Squigly the Marie color? I call that shit from now and forever.

 

[toastyToast]

Are there plans to add the ability to change frame delay in lobbies or prematch? Netcode is great when set up properly but I'm a little out of the ways so I'm playing with people at a variety of pings.

Fixed in my post now.

 

[Anony]

I have another 30 or so beta codes to give out. PM me for one.

would you happen to still have any beta codes left?

 

[Karsticles]

Sent, though I don't know how much longer it's good for.

 

[Cosmo Clock 21]

Full game should be out today... right?

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

If you restart Steam, it should be able to be installed.

 

[Syril]

How is getting Squigly supposed to work? It gives an error when I try to Add to Cart. I'm not sure the Steam store knows how to handle items costing $0.00.

Thats funny, i just booted the game up and shes already there.

At least on my account, she's already added to my game as DLC. The other DLC characters are showing up on my DLC list, too.

 

[Delusibeta]

I'll update the OP and request a title change later, but yes: the beta is over and the stable client is available to download.

 

[alstein]

The beta just patched, is it to match the base game or for something else? (beginning of Big Band?)

 

[Ferrio]

Wait... skullgirls is free on steam?

 

[SirYoshi]

I think steam bugged.

 

[Nabs]

I think someone should probably put up a new thread for the game since the beta will continue to see updates.

 

[Cosmo Clock 21]

MikeZ riding that F2P fighter wave too

 

[Lazy vs Crazy]

Shows as $14.99 here.

You can get it at greenmangaming for $12 if for some reason you don't own it yet.

 

[nded]

My Skullgirls Beta changed its name to Endless Beta and it works as always, but apparently there's supposed to be a second entry for the "full" game that I don't have for some reason. Also, when I visit the store page it doesn't think I own the game. Pre-ordered on GMG if that matters.

Edit: Never mind, they just put the full game key in a confusing place. If anyone else is having trouble, click the "Download" link for Skullgirls in your GMG library and the key should be there.

First look at the next DLC character Big Band:

Obviously still very rough.

Interesting how huge he is.

 

[Ravidrath]

Interesting how huge he is.

He's actually not any taller than Double, because his sax neck doesn't have a hitbox.

 

[TDLink]

So with Mariel Cartwirght, the Skullgirls animator, working on the new Shantae, and its lead saying he would be fine with Shantae in Skullgirls on Sup Holmes?...

What are the chances of Shantae as a guest character in Skullgirls actually happening?

EDIT: actually meant to post this in the OT rather than the Beta thread. Apologies.

Playable? Extremely low given how much it costs to make a single character in this game.

NPC set up in one of the backgrounds? Maybe.

If the Sprite and Animation work is already done for Shantae that saves them a lot, I would think... If I remember right that was their most costly thing per character.

Yeah but the sprite work would be done for her game... in her style. It's not done at all. They'd have to redraw to fit Skullgirls and she'd need fightgame moves as opposed to jumpgame moves.

I don't see how it is that far off:

Obviously some work would need to be done with the moves/programming as well as voice work (as I believe Shantae is going to only have sound effects/hit noises). I am just saying, a big chunk of the work is potentially done.

I just think she would fit into Skullgirls, even moreso now that we know she is getting the same animation as Skullgirls...plus her creator is fine with it. So yeah, was just wondering about the feasibility here as a guest.

 

[Jintor]

It'd be good to use as an animation base but to be Skullgirls style they'd really need to redo every frame.

I'd fucking love it if she gets in though. But more likely as a background character.

 

[nded]

I don't see how it is that far off:

I think the number of animation frames Shantae has in her games averages around 500-600, massive for a sidescrolling platformer character but still less than half of the average frame count of a Skullgirls character at around 1400. Not to mention that the new Shantae sprites are done in a different style with different shading; I think she'd look quite out of place in Skullgirls if they just lifted her sprites straight from her game.
