Of course we post stuff firstly at our website then occasionaly on the forums, so make sure you're checking the site as often as this thread - http://gowmugen.com (http://gowmugen.com).

looks very nice,and i have a remote idea of what you're trying to do with Kratos :DWell, that depends on how far your imagination can go.

Very cool-looking WIP. I can see that you're putting alot of work into making the sprites look as close to Kratos as possible. Good luck with this WIP, it will probably be voted as character of the year if you release it this year :)
P.S - check you pm.

Good luck with this WIP, it will probably be voted as character of the year if you release it this year :)Thanks, I try my best to make him look as much Kratosish as possible, so I'm glad you noticed it. :) And about that release date, our (mine and Kratos') goal is to release him somewhere near GOW3 release. And that's probably 13.03.2010.
:o :o :o :o Wow Ill be waiting this!!!!!
looks good, cant wait to see moreThanks guys, but don't you have any questions maybe?

wow looks very good i have a question will he be able to "finish" his opponent?You mean like when P2 is almost dead, some icon appears above his head letting you know that Kratos can come closer, grab him and then jump back in slow-mo while you need to press some combination of buttons, and if you do it right, Kratos will perform some "fatality"?
:) Let me put it this way - you won't be dissapointed. :thumbsup:
Here's a question for you. As awesome as he looks, any chance you all can do a Master Chief next when your done ;) lolActually, this character is our (my and Kratos') way to say "goodbye" to the Mugen community. I'm way too old for that stuff now, so...

Because you know about 2d fighting games , means you are old enough to be involved in mugen ;*))
This hobby is more for the older guys that grew up playing 2d fighters in the arcade .
But I understand life has to come first . One day I may quit creating for mugen also .

Hey, COOL! I commented on this on the other forum! Can't wait for more progress updates! I really think you're doing an awesome thing making Kratos! %%-Thank you, and stay tuned for the updates. As for now, we're on that boring part - making basic stuff, like movements and gethits :-@ but it's needed go throught it to get to the fun part - attacks, combos, specials, supers, intros and outros. =P~
::salute:: :)
ok i got a question, will this be gow1 or 2 or even 3 kratos. theres not much difference but in the second half of 2 and i think all of 3 you have the golden fleece. will there be a golden fleece move or move with any other weapons besides the blades of chaos/athena.Our goal is to make our Kratos from somewhere after GOW2, just so we can give him as much bonus stuff as it is possible at the time. GOW3 is not released yet, so we don't really know what he'll be having there. Maybe we'll release a patch after he's done.

12) striker/helper ares/zeus?
13) voices from god of war 1
14) typhon bow and arrow projectile

16) icarus dive (wings obtained from icarus goes in the air and dives for a smash or combo)
17) zeus's fury (throws thunderbolts at opponent)
18 ) atlast quake (think of c.vipers special ground move but on a bigger scale)

Are you sure that's enough? I'm kidding, that's a great list. I'll tell you this, we already have A LOT from that list planned. Like DooM said earlier, this kratos will be from between GOW2 and GOW3. So you can pretty much assume that a lot of the weapons or abilities you saw in GOW 2, will show up in this character in some way. And even some GOW3 stuff.

great wip :thumbsup: will you implement the QTE gameplay as part of hypers or just fatalities?
We're still deciding on that. Since I'll be the one programming it, I'll just see what feels most natural to the player.
Post by: R.I.C.O - Teros on March 05, 2009, 11:56:41 PM

Post by: kratos on March 06, 2009, 12:06:20 AM
I am loving the sprites here. I think this will motivate me to do a stage from the GoW series (as I did one from Devil May Cry 3). I had already planned to make one, but I feel more motivated now to do one.
You know, that would be great! I had recently been thinking about a stage to go with our character. I love it when people contribute. If you really want to make one, we can talk more.
Most of the questions I had in mind have already been asked so i'd just like to say; much luck on this project. I'm sure a lot of people will love this. :thumbsup:
If you have any more questions feel free to ask and I'll try to answer them as best I can. Me and DooM are working hard to meet and exceed everyone's expectations. And so far it looks like people are expecting a lot! :P

We're still deciding on that. Since I'll be the one programming it, I'll just see what feels most natural to the player.it would be cool if you did both differently..what i mean is adding a level of qte elements to some of the hypers but not all of em while keeping the higher levels of qte to fatalities with different qte moves and all.

I'm in the process of learning how to make "good" characters right now. Kratos was one of the first people I wanted to make, but it looks like you beat me to it. I have so many ideas for him it's ridiculous. I'm sure you have it all planned out as well, and I wish you luck. The sprites look really good, and can't wait to see what you got next. If you're making him MvC style, you should definitely give him a move to where after he launches an opponent, he could rip them back down with his chains and slam them into the ground behind him or chain into another combo or something. That would be cool. =P~ This is definitely a good character to retire with. Again, good luck on this project.
Thanks for the support. He won't be MVC styled. We're going for a more original gameplay, and more true to the actual games. I guess it's time I should post his gameplay.
Kratos's gameplay will focus a lot on combos (duh), just like in the original games. If you saw a combo in the games, you're likely to see it here. He will be able to preform ground combos, air combos, and ground to air combos.
Kratos will utilize all 6 buttons, but will only attack with four of them. I will explain what the other two buttons are for below.
A - weak/medium punch
B - hard punch
C - block
X - weak/medium kick
Y - hard kick
Z - weapon system
Blocking
As you see, kratos has a block button. There are several reasons for this:
1) Holding back to block is too easy. Kratos will be a tactical character. That means you're going learn when you need to block.
2) It stays true to the original game.
3) Considering what we have planned for his gameplay, the block button is a key part of how he will play. It could have something to do with the golden fleece, as well as other gameplay mechanics. ;*))
Some of you may be worried about this, and may be thinking "a block button? Uh oh, I hope it doesn't play like mortal kombat, that's way too stiff". Well I assure you, it will not. I'm going to make it as natural and smooth as possible. Also, you will not be limited to just blocking. You will be able to roll(evade) during blocking, or you may counter attack. The choice is up to the player. Like I've said, the block button is a key part of his gameplay, and I think you will find it to your liking.
Weapon System
Much like in the original games, kratos will have a weapon system. You'll be able to switch weapons on the fly, as well as during combos. More to come about this later....

GOWmugen.com (http://gowmugen.com)
You may say it's a bit "too much" as for one char project or it can be "too soon" for this kind of things, so let me answer you already:
It's not "too much" because me and Kratos are very serious and we're putting whole our hearts into this project to make it perfect. This character won't be just for for one Mugen launching - I assure you.
And it's also not "too soon" for such step since we want to inform people about the progress in one specific place (it's more comfortable for us and you).
Note: There's no God of War full game coming from us, but new Kratos' journey. So please, don't ask if we could make some other characters from GoW too.
Stay tuned for some updates that are coming soon enough.

Weapon Systemthis sounds pretty interesting. how would it be? a graphic-based choose option like in magicians games or a drop-switch-up one like Alien Vs Predator?

The team of DooM and Kratos has been quoted as saying this WIP will be their swan song in regards to new character creations.We don't like those kind of requests. Lets focus on Kratos first. Also, I don't like to plan that much for future 'cause life is wicked and unpredictable and I don't want to dissapoint anyone.
Side note, the new website looks amazing.
YAY!!!!! you sir get a standing ovation. Finally someone decides to create another much needed mugen character inside another round of 8000 ryus, 3000, kens, 2300 guiles. i hope ppls take notes and start creative creations like this one. if i knew how to do half that stuff man i would release some crazy stuffzComment appreciated.

hey fellas one quick questionWe have enough introduction ideas to be busy with, so yeah, we'll just wait till Sony will show him in GOW3, since we don't know his name, how he exactly looks and sounds like.

Thats okay, those sprites look fantastic and fluid, so time is a good thing. The only thing I find weird is when he stops he just whips out the blades so fast that if it wasn't for that metal sound, it would seem like they just appeared there.

The only thing I find weird is when he stops he just whips out the blades so fast that if it wasn't for that metal sound, it would seem like they just appeared there.Actually, me and Kratos decided to go with the version where he's drawing his blades so fast that you can see only the fx of the swing's trace. There's no anim of Kratos drawing his blades because it would slow the gameplay down and that would be a bad thing.
It worked in God Of War: Betrayal (mobile game) and it works in our project as well.

i just saw that video...man the sound effects if f***** crazy man...just lookin at the vid with the sounds effects got me goosebumps and i feel pumped..LOL..great job on bringing the mood out.
seriously great job.
and the stages you picked for the video with the music and his voice is just.......DAMNN!!!!
even though you guys made the sprites from scratch the animation is really well done.
hey i just read the FAQ from the website. you guys are leaving after this project? does that mean you are just going to stop making characters BUT will stay , dl characters and play?
or do you mean leave the community completely, erasing all your data and never looking back?

It just means that we'll be retiring from mugen, but I'll still be around the communities.

My question is he going to be that size or be a bit smaller ?
Well even if that is gonna be his size on release if I remember correctly you can scale him up or down in the main CNS for the character that has all the stats like attack,defense,power,etc,etc....
So you can always change his size yourself but altering it alot will probably(just a theory I could be wrong) mess up the sprite quality a drastic amount depending on how much you scaled him up or down. Again its just a theory because I have never messed with that so I could be completely wrong.

In this article, mainly discussed his side of things, including:
- DooM's motivations behind this character
- how the project came together
- numerous subjects regarding graphics
- the use of QTE when he fights
- the website devoted to the WIP
Here is a preview:
1) Why did you personally decide to start work on this character?
Heh…actually, I have some question for you: do you know the feeling when you're at work and working really hard, and your boss is watching you only when you're taking some little break from time to time ('cause you're tired), and he’s thinking that you're probably doing so all the time? You want to prove him wrong, that you're worth more than that, that you deserve more.
Well, it's almost like that with me in the MUGEN Community. I spent a lot of time in the community, not leeching but learning how to program and design stuff for it. Opened a couple of MUGEN related websites, started few projects and released some screenpacks and stages, but never characters. So people are always like: "Umm... you consider yourself as a MUGEN veteran. OK. Did you release any characters?" I didn't. Why? I have had some real bad luck when it comes to the long term creations. There were a few accidents when I've been working on some (IMO) real nice characters (DM-Akuma, DM-Chun-Li, DM-Saiyaman and Nappa for the DBZ/GT MUGEN Project.) and when I was 50% or even 90% done(!), I always lost it somehow. My HDD crashed or my computer was so virused that there was no other option but to format all the drives. I know that I could backup all of those, but I didn't back then, so it's pretty late for such sayings now. And starting over? Well trust me that it’s really hard to work on something again with such attitude you had before.
...All this and more, including another special shout out to the fans. To check it out, go to:
