Autumn Games and Reverge Labs to Unleash Skullgirls in 2011; Additional Details to be Revealed at GDC
Los Angeles – Feb. 3, 2011 – Prepare for the fight of your life! Autumn Games, a premier publisher of interactive entertainment, is working with game developer Reverge Labs to develop Skullgirls, a new fast-paced 2D fighting game that puts players in control of fierce female warriors in an extraordinary Dark Deco world. The team is led by renowned fighting game champion Mike “Mike Z” Zaimont and artist Alex Ahad, whose work has appeared in many publications, including Scott Pilgrim and Lava Punch. Using advanced graphical technology never before achieved in a game of its type, Skullgirls is currently in development for a 2011 release on high-definition home consoles.
“We believe that Skullgirls has the chops to be the next big 2D fighter – it has amazing art, tight gameplay, and a rich and deep backstory,” said Jason Donnell, president and COO, Autumn Games. “Working with the talented group at Reverge Labs is an added bonus, particularly with Mike Z’s expertise in the competitive games arena and Alex Ahad’s phenomenal art style. Together we’re delivering a challenging and competitive – and really fun – game, wrapped in the convenience and easy expandability of DLC on the two leading gaming services.”
“We’re aiming to create a new take on fighting games, drawing on our own experience as competitive gamers to combine the best elements of classic fighters into something with intense action, an engaging story and the most advanced 2D fighting engine ever created,” said Richard Wyckoff, CEO, Reverge Labs. “Autumn Games is quickly making a name for itself in the industry as a publisher of fresh and exciting games and a true partner to independent game developers, and they were the ideal choice for us to partner with on Skullgirls.”

Yea, saw a vid on it few days ago. Looks pretty interesting. Wonder how long 'til we get the sprite rips. =P

but uhh this make me wonder somehing, its kinda like fighting games even tho mugen emulated them , that now somehow they might be emulating mugen? is it me being crazy or is there some truth to that maybe? plus , imagine if Mugen creators, sprite artiss, Fx and coders and such banned together from the mugen communiy and put all they knowhow into forming a solid gaming developer company :o
reality or blasphemy. either way...it just boggles the mind to wonder. :-??

Impressed with the work being put into this game, and hope it does well both in and outside the tournament scene. Even if Skullgirls is released with an initial 8-character roster, this will still be a 1st day buy for me :)

Quote from: iPLAYWINNER.com
Our good friend Jesse Cortez over at Destructoid (http://www.destructoid.com/hands-on-with-parasoul-from-skullgirls-209206.phtml) had some time to sit down with Mike Z at EVO and try out one of Skullgirls newly announced characters Parasoul. He gives a great break down of her playstyle, relating many of her attacks to characters in other games to give readers a better idea what she is all about. Check out a small excerpt after the break and read the rest by clicking here (http://www.destructoid.com/hands-on-with-parasoul-from-skullgirls-209206.phtml).
Her special moves can be divided into two types. The first involves the use of her umbrella, which releases napalm grenades that travel in an arc dictated by how long you hold the button down. If you played as Cable from Marvel vs. Capcom 2, you should be familiar with this system. What I found interesting is that the Skullgirls team used EVO as a play-test and actually changed how these grenades worked based on what they saw at the convention. Therefore, the way to set off these grenades is still under development, but it's impressive that they are relying on actual gamer play-testing to decide on the final move set.
and just recently...

This has enough stuff for a full disc release, and yet it will be a live/psn title!its releasing with 8 chars and the game is like mvc2 with hand drawn sprites, so the most it will be is about 300mb. that would be a waste of money to get that out on hd dvd and blue ray disc which holds way more space than that
EDIT:
o.O# had this for a while and forgot to share it lol
here is the skullgirls art folder uploaded by one of the artist. it has concept art for characters in the game now and the one's that they will add later. squigly and umbrella will be 2 characters available for early dlc. they said squigl'ys moves are really out there so im guessing there's alot of spiriting involved to get her to work in with the other characters.
here they are

(http://pub.tenkuu.net/Images/060706_sg_lj_update/umbrella_portrait.jpg)
there are other characters in the folder that will be added later but i know these two will be in the game. the others could just be ideas that get scrapped later

Post by: Sabaki on February 08, 2012, 01:23:57 PM
word they are really draggin this on smh lol It would be jacked up if they decide to tank the game or put it on hold for next year^^ lol
^^(PM)^
But in all seriousness, RevergeLab is really putting in a lot of work in making Skullgirls a solid title, even for PSN/XBL download. Sure, it's gonna be updated with new content as time goes on, but I guess they want to make a positive impression on the FGC with the initial release.
But here's something to make the wait even more harder to bear lol . Been following the Friday Night Fights and the last two featured Valentine vs Parasoul. Great fights cuz both players really know how to use their character very well, plus we get to see closely how well Valentine will play :)

Peter “Ravidrath” Bartholow of Reverge Labs recently posted a brand new entry to the Playstation blog that reveals their latest trailer as well as a few details on the demo coming to PSN. Double, the unholy amalgamation of multiple characters’ movesets, is the featured character in the brand new teaser, and it showcases just how unique the character is compared to the rest of the cast. I quite like her transformation into a laser-ring shooting Moai statue.
He also went through some of the features the trial version of the game will feature, which includes Filia and Cerebella, as well as a full-fledged training mode to help you get situated with the game before dropping your money on it.
The full list is as follows:
Two Characters, Filia and Cerebella
An abbreviated Arcade Mode, with three AI battles
Local versus play, limited to duo teams
Four tutorials
Practice Room

For those who need a movelist and can't wait for the patch, go to the Skull Girls website, or head over to www.shoryuken.com (http://www.shoryuken.com) for their SG guide which has the full movelist, gameplay analysis, and much more :)

Also practiced with Cerebella and Peacock. Cerebella caught my eye during development as a strong & unique character...but as we can see everyone else saw the same thing, thus there will be lots of Cerebella players out there lol . I'm digging Peacock, but you gotta have a strategy with her if you want to be effective, since she's not much of a close range fighter and can have a hard time when peeps get in. Wanna pick up both (especially Peacock after playing with her in story mode) but time will tell.Next is Parasoul, Ms. Fortune, and Valentine. Anybody found their mains yet?

I'm sticking with Cerebella, Painwheel and Filia. Bella's damage output is insane, Painwheel's flight and super armor attacks are great, and Filia's comboablity makes her really fun to use. I rarely go with a team of 3 though, its usually 1 or 2 for me.
Post by: CheshireCat on April 14, 2012, 02:34:10 PM
For 360: Down, RB, Up, LB, Y, B
For PS3: Down, R1, Up, L1, Square, X
Am getting a feel for all the characters at the moment. Seriously a fun game, best 15 bucks I ever spent.
Post by: Sabaki on April 15, 2012, 11:00:04 AM
@Shadagear: Ms. Fortune is a fun character indeed! She plays pretty similar to Filia on certain levels, for example she can air dash cancel her jump attacks on contact the same way Filia can.
@BigJ: wow, that sounds like a strong & balanced team you got there.
@Cheshire Cat: Thx for the tip!
I'm guessing everyone knows about the DLC chars that are in the works. If you've been following the production, there have been talks about certain chars that could possibly be included in the game, especially those that play a big role in the SG storyline. For those who haven't seen pics, head over to http://wiki.shoryuken.com/Skullgirls (http://wiki.shoryuken.com/Skullgirls) and check out speculative characters to see those who could possibly make it in as DLC. My money's on Black Dahlia :)

I don't have input issues with other characters that I noticed even in a heated battle, but with Peacock I get a lot. It could be because she has a lot of move variants or something, not sure. The Argus Agony issue is the one that bugs me the most, since it is critical for long combos.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A1SkdaAw0FI&feature=youtube_gdata_player# (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A1SkdaAw0FI&feature=youtube_gdata_player#)
By now we should be familiar with the infinite prevention system and understand how to not repeat combos. Well this vid by Desk gives some clues about pushing the infinite prevention to its limits by varying up your reps and understanding when you've used up certain moves. This definitely helped me to on how to approach making long combos.

Reverge Labs and Autumn Games have announced that Skullgirls has managed to sell over 50,000 copies across both platforms in its first 10 days. This is definitely great news, especially since the game has yet to be released on the European Playstation Network. The Skullgirls Twitter account also announced that the developers are now working on the first title update. Details on what the update contains are still unknown, but it’s nice to know that the game sold enough copies to justify additional content.

i had to lose a good 12 times now. one time i nearly beat the B*tch and she killed me with some unknown force and took all my health away like it was one of those Guilty gear fatals. having that as a normal move sucks because she already have those skeletons thats damn there built of adamantium 8=|...
Now im just trying to end it off GP and thats it. ill prolly play one of you cats here but dont expect much competition from me in that game. you might as well use me as a punching bag and practice new tricks for the real competition^^

i just downloaded it today. i like the game in general on the strange characters and combos but seriously yo that last master is bullsh*t *Iceman ThumbsDown!*. Hard for no reason at all. maybe im gettin old but i dont find ridiculously cheap fighting game bosses epic at all...she barely takes damage and all her attacks are spam cheap >o:-(....im finding myself constantly trying to cheese her down for the win. Those one hit near fatal kills is retarded. if i could express that to those developers id say next time dont do that sh*t it takes away from caring to end the game. Make the boss intelligent not dumb cheap. In my strong opinion i dont like that at all :-w....

What? At first I had problems beating her, but after that I managed to beat her quite easily (i dont even know how to use Painwheel that much and I still managed to beat her, the same for Peacock GARBAGE DAY!!!). Basically I just rushed and beat her down as fast as I could. Made use of my Supers carefully. I guess I just got lucky =/

ehem...but yeh that last boss is a piece of sh*t :|
I almost killed her stupid @ss but i lost my momentum. i was hitting her with a lot of flurry quick cheap attacks and blocking on que WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN ITS LIKE MY CHARS HAD A STROKE AND COULDNT BLOCK ANYMORE.... :-w the dumb sh*t always seem to happen when shes either in her final round uterus bullsh*t form or the first form and she shoots out those dragon long heads...
cool game but right now im like f*ck that :-j Old kai nerves aint as tough as it used to be keepin up with that crap. eventually ill beat her though...i am a lil tired from work...maybe before me and my lady head out saturday to party with my family ill take another stab at it...

Yeah, boss is no slouch, though I usually win with no problems using Parasoul or Valentine. It's really easy for Valentine because she has that move that rushes by the opponent cutting, and puts her behind them.
lol yeah im still feeling my way with the characters. some of the spammy moves that seemed effective on that boss i gotta practice on getting right

On a side note, on the stage New Meridian, you can spot a character that looks like Ryu, and also the character Bonus Kun from Galaxy Fight and Waku Waku 7 is leaning on the wall next to him. They can be seen to the far right. =D

Some strategies work better on certain forms than others. It's just a matter of experimenting and reacting with a same move when the boss attacks...if you can.

Easiest to beat the final boss for me was Peacock. Qcf+hp - Argus Agony all day while safely blocking her moves, then qcb+hp on final form until dead.
Easiest for me is spamming Double's Hornet Bomber and occasionally linking it into a super. :P

If you guys are interested, there are some videos with Mike Z and the voice actors are hanging out playing the game. No really anything to learn from them, but some of them are entertaining. Can't post them here because of language, but here's a link to the channel that has them:

Post by: DEMONKAI on May 16, 2012, 08:57:07 PM
For me, the final boss has a few patterns that indicate certain attacks, but some are just guess work. Although, I think the issue isn't so much recognizing patterns, but having the right/safest response when the boss attacks. For example, parasoul's :2, :8 HK acts like a safety counter against almost anything because the invinciblity window is long useless against that dragon-looking skull attack, sheesh it is too long). For this to work, do crouch combos and when you see or even sense danger cancel into that attack. Same thing can be said about Filia's uppercut move, but the problem with that is it has very long recovery.
Some strategies work better on certain forms than others. It's just a matter of experimenting and reacting with a same move when the boss attacks...if you can.
yeah man that dragon attack is the sh*t that gets on my nerves but im starting to overcome that because i keep moving and jumping faking it out i guess. But that Last mode of hers?? ridiculous its like she just spams those lil skeleton heads all day...smdh

Dude.... sh*t its like damned if you do and damned if you dont on the block! The chip damage is severely ridiculous. it seems to damn there have the same impact if you WERENT blocking smdh...i havent played it for a hot while now cuz of that. i gotta be in the mood to try and end the game. the characters you fight before you get to her are tough but not way outta line. They are about as tough as Guilty gear characters.....SH*T now that i think about it that last B*tch from hell in skull girls is worse than INO in Guilty gear XX...and thats bad!
Its like it leaves ya with this sour taste like "aw cmon man with th*s bullsh*t :-w" when that dragon head be raping you on the stun 8=|
The idea of the game is cool though and it looks great but they need some schoolin on how to not make bosses cheap. Make them smarter yeah but not persistent damage cheap.. i dont have much patient for bosses like that anymore. Mugen is enough^^

i actually got the demo.....uhhhhh... WTF and dang this thing is like overkill hard! i couldnt even touch the one babe cause she spammed so much stuff it took me 3 tries till i just rushed her down like a mack truck over a badger! i couldnt get all funky like i wanted to but dang. >:(
The game is cool to play against friends lando. Its different. its just when it comes down to the CPU it gets retarded at times. On normal is like playing Guilty gear XX on HARD. You have to be relentless with your attacks. The thing that sucks about the last boss is she doesnt take much damage at all but she deals A whole f*ckin lot and certain specials (a special move i said :|) damn there act like one of my Revenge supers for my Terry :D

Here's the current changes that are scheduled to be implemented (not finalized yet)
____________________
1) Skullgirls Patch Changes
Added New Tournament Mode
All colors are available in tournament mode.
Sparring mode is not available in tournament mode.
Tournament mode starts you off in button check after controller select and before character select so you don’t forget to do it.
Unplugging a controller after a match takes you immediately back to controller select.
Match options cannot be changed off the default options in tournament mode.
Tournament mode will not grant you achievements, so the game will not freeze during gameplay.
____________________
2) Global Changes
Infinite prevention system now treats standing normal, crouching normal, and command normal as the same move. (Example, s.LP, s.MP, s.HP, c.LP, s.MP, s.HP previously wouldn’t trigger the iPS late in a combo. Now it will because s.LP and c.LP are both considered “grounded LP” for the purposes of detecting infinites.) This makes combos shorter and makes the game more “resetty”.
Hard tags now count toward the IPS.
DHCs no longer reset the IPS in some instances.
Random situations in which the IPS triggered without actually performing a loop after a one frame link have been fixed. (One frame resets still do trigger the IPS.)
The throw tech window has been increased by 3 frames after a grab. (Cerebella’s air command grab is not affected.)
Hit-sparks no longer change to pink when comboing an assist character.
When comboing a character after death, they become immediately invincible after the infinite prevention system is triggered, ending the combo.
Assists now take 20% more damage when hit, up from 6%.
DHC freeze glitch has been fixed.
Alpha counter bugs have been fixed.
Forward techs no longer take priority over backward techs.
Redundant achievement freezes have been removed.
Fixed an issue where characters would transform into hit-boxes while art was still streaming. Instead, they briefly turn into de-resed versions of their normal art. Mike Z describes it as “looking all eight bit.”
Assist inputs are now more lenient.
Assists can now be called six frames before you can normally act.
LP+HK and LK+HP are now assist 1 commands for pad players.
Double jumps no longer cancel their momentum when put into pre-block.
Menus now wrap.
Online performance has been tweaked to avoid slowdown on bad connections.
Glitches involving the game freezing when choosing to change stage have been removed.
PS3 matchmaking has been altered. Matchmaking is now more lenient. Only three tiers are available.
New regions are available for matchmaking.
Save data corruption has been fixed.
New training mode options and in-game move-lists are planned.
US vs. EU crashes have been fixed.
____________________
3) Cerebella
Excellabella is now easier to input on the custom assist menu.
Merry Go-Rilla does the correct ratio of damage as an assist now.
Excellabella’s range has been increased.
QCB+LP might be added as a secondary motion for her projectile reflect.
Glitches involving a snap back hitting an armored move have been fixed.
360 protection now applies to double jumps so you can spin the stick in the middle of a jump in order to throw when you hit the ground.
Cerebella’s run throw no longer whiffs on crouching Valentine.
Fixed a problem where Cerebella’s run throw would occasionally push back the opponent much further than it was supposed to.
____________________
4) Double
No longer gains meter while Catelite Lives is active.
Hornet Bomber H no longer has invincibility on start-up.
All versions of Hornet Bomber now cause techable knockdown. (Mike Z made a point several times to say that he personally thinks that the Hornet Bomber changes are unnecessary but he is being forced to make them.)
Jumping HP now causes 27 frames of hit-stun down from 37 frames.
MK followup and HK have both slowed down by 3 frames each and have slightly less hit-stun
Nightmare Legion is 2 frames slower on startup.
Nightmare Legion’s animation is faster.
Nightmare Legion knocks you in the opposite direction after it completes.
Nightmare Legion now causes techable knockdown.
Nightmare Legion’s damage has been reduced.
Nightmare Legion no longer stops when an opponent dies in the middle of it.
Double is no longer invulnerable during Nightmare Legion.
____________________
5) Filia
Air Hair Ball can now be negative edged.
____________________
6) Ms. Fortune
Ms. Fortune’s head flies approximately a screen’s length away from you after OMNOMNOM. This happens both when the move ends and when the opponent is hit out of it. It will always fly in the direction opposite of the nearest corner.
Mike Z said another OMNOMNOM change will be made but it is not implemented yet.
The last hits of Headless Furserker Purrage now hits all crouching characters.
Rekka timing is now more lenient.
Bugs involving strange head movement after death have been fixed.
____________________
7) Peacock
Input window for her level 3 is now more lenient
Teleport now has three more frames of recovery
____________________
8 ) Parasoul
Tear explosions now scale correctly based on ratio.
Tears now do damage to Marie.
Blockstun from tear explosions are now three frames shorter.
____________________
9) Painwheel
Minimum damage on Buer Thresher has been tweaked.
Painwheel’s tag in no longer starts you at combo stage 1.
Spin-Dash’s move input has been changed to hold down, mash kicks. It activates when 4 kick buttons are hit within 35 frames. It can be pianoed.
Spin-Dash can be canceled with a punch button.
Painwheels forward heavy kick command normal now has a shorter window for followups.
____________________
10) Valentine
Flatliner no longer stops when an opponent is killed in the middle of it
Flatliner no longer interacts with assists or Ms. Fortune’s head
Level 3 is now faster.
The animation of Level 3 can be skipped by holding punch.
Green (stun) poison wears off more quickly when the opponent is in hit-stun. Makes it harder to do extended poison combos. Removes many combo options along with IPS change.

double nerfs make me sad :(
I hear ya. I'm no Double user and although I agree that Hornet Bomber is abusable due to its invinciblity and already good hitbox, a reduction of invinciblity time (on start up frames only), or a 1-2 hit armor would've sufficed to make her balanced. Heck, I can live with no invinciblity since it's still good, but no hard knockdown is a weird choice as a nerf imho. Hell, Parasoul's Napalm Trigger should also get a nerf, like a reduction of invinciblity frames, cuz right now that move is just as abusive as an assist. Can't speak much on the normal attack nerfs Double received, though.
The other changes, more or less, I'm feeling. Making the game less combo-heavy and promoting resets & 50/50 setups will make things more interesting. Especially good for Fillia and Peacock players, Fillia is strong at resets, while Peacock now has an extended chance of survival against heavy rundown games lol . Changes to the IPS will also increase chances of bursting, which may make "burst baiting" strategies more stronger. All in all, we should be seeing more strategic gameplay with all characters, and how creative peeps will get with resets.
Looking forward to the tournament mode, along with the new additions to training mode :)

Here's a vid of the live stream on The Mixup where Like Z discusses the current patch changes.
Skullgirls: Latest Early patched version (with Mike Z) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXlmaFdzAhY#ws)
Seeing the new techable knockdown for Hornet Bomber in action, it's not too bad as long as you cancel into a Blockbuster, for you can catch the opponent before the tech. Still means you wont see Hornet Bomber that much cuz you're left at a 50/50 if the opponent techs the hit...that is, if the change really is final.

Post by: Swiziga on June 05, 2012, 03:27:58 PM
First set of DLC colors is coming for free. Three new colors for everyone.
A bug involving coming in the wrong way after death has been fixed.
5 frame chain buffer has been applied to jump and double jump cancels too.
Move Lists have been created.
Sparring mode now loads the exact game state of when you turned it on when you turn it off.
Input display has been entered, still buggy. It includes inputs on the bottom of the screen and a “custom assist” stick and button real time layout.
PS3 Matchmaking has been adjusted.
Xbox 360 loading times have been addressed.
IPS no longer carries over in one frame “uncombos.”
The screen now flashes and a sound plays when you find a match online.
Gamertags worked on being included in online mode.
Difficulty levels have been adjusted and tweaked.
Ranked will now be blind pick.
Unranked will let you see your opponent selecting your custom assist.
New tutorials are being worked on… though they aren’t the tutorials we are expecting.
Peacock
Peacock Milk Chan has no shading on it.
You can no longer DHC out of Lenny before he comes out.
Peacock’s hit invincible gun now is invincible through the active frames.
Lenny now does about 1,500 more damage on hit and more chip on block.
Peacock’s bottle item drop no longer knocks you the wrong way.
Parasoul
No Chun-Li pallete Parasoul.
Napalm Pillar lost three frames of invulnerability after the end of the hit.
Parasoul’s Jumping HP has been extended back toward her to prevent whiffing at close range in a corner.
Parasouls’ jumping MK starts floating faster. After stopping the float you are immediately able to act.
Bike super’s hit-stop changed to help them combo better. Increased DHC window by eight frames.
Parasoul’s tear explosions do three frames less block stun.
Filia
Gregor Samson has +3 Frames of Recovery.
Hairball now combos to Gregor Samson on all characters.
Squiggly requires changes to the game system to work. Those changes will be implemented in this patch but no one will use them.
You can now combo off of air hairballs.
Painwheel
Buer Thresher (Air Super) has had its minimum damage increased.
Buer Thresher leaves you in normal jump afterward, so you can fly or do specials afterward.
Painwheel moves up slower when the screen scrolls upward, allowing characters to hit her out of flight with a super jump.

Valentine
Valentine’s green poison now reduces 2/3rds as fast while in hit-stun, up from 1/2.
Savage Bypass now recovers faster. You can now hit the floor after an air Savage Bypass to do a ground EKG. You can also now combo off the wallbounce in a corner without using your OTG.
Double

Gradius head rings have been given reduced hit-stun. No longer combos from full screen when mashing.
Gradius head invincibility wears off as soon as you press a button.
Cerebella
Cerebella was nerfed by 50-75 on every normal hit (not command normals, specials, and supers). This translates to a loss of 700-1400 on combos.
Cerebella’s DP throw option select has been removed.
Ceretemkin color palate will be paid DLC.
Ms. Fortune
Ms. Fortune’s overhead rekka is slightly faster.
Using head recall now forces you to go through 9 frames of animation, making head recall cancels less useful.

Non-gameplay changes:
- Unlock colors 11-13 for all characters. Enjoy your freebies!
- Improvements to online play:
GGPO now rolls back properly instead of slowing down at moderate or high pings, increases playable ping range by quite a bit.
Reduce the number of tiers for PS3 matchmaking from 9 to 3, and lower the ‘acceptable match’ threshold so more matches will be found for a given number of players online.
Ranked matches online are now blind-pick, meaning you cannot see your opponent’s character choice until after choosing a stage.
Add screen flash and notification sound when you find a match.
Display opponent’s gamertag during a match.
Display opponent’s chosen assist types on character select.
Addressed the sound issues. Not all problems are fixed but overall should be much better, especially on item drops.
- Improve loading times on 360. Reorganized the entire filesystem. Hopefully it’s enough!
- Add In-Game Move Lists, now you can ignore them instead of just wishing they were there to be ignored.
- Rebalanced AI Difficulty.
- Added Tournament Mode:
Disables granting of in-match Achievements/Trophies to prevent gameplay hiccups.
Forces menu flow of controller select -> button config -> choose characters -> play.
Uses default rounds and time settings regardless of current choices in the options menu.
Disables Sparring Mode toggle.
Allows all non-DLC colors to be used regardless of in-game unlock status.
Returns to the controller select screen if 1p or 2p controller is unplugged at the post-match menu. (Does not do this if a controller is unplugged mid-match.)
Forces button config whenever both players choose to return to character select.
Is part of this complete breakfast.
- Added more Training Mode options:
The Select/Back button can be set to either save/load state, record/playback dummy actions, or do both at once. Easily test any setup with precise positioning every time, at the touch of a button! (Hold the button down to clear the saved state or actions.)
The dummy recording can be set to play back as a reversal. This has endless uses...figure out what is safe against Showstopper, learn to deal with reversal Napalm Pillars or opponents mashing LP or throw, etc.
Input Display (List / Realtime Stick / Both)
Dummy Action (Manual / Crouch / Jump)
Blocking (Never / After First Hit / Always / First Hit Only / Random)
Block Type (High / Low / All)
Pushblock (Never / After Anywhere From 1 to 10 Blocked Hits)
Throw Tech (Never / Always / After First Hit / Random)
Ground Tech (Never / Forward / Backward / Random)
Escape Infinite Combos (Never / After Anywhere From 1 to 10 Burstable Hits)
Dummy Playback (Once / Repeat / As Reversal)
Dummy Playback Side Correction: Choose whether the dummy recording is treated as relative directions (D,DB,B) or absolute directions (Down,Down-Left,Left) when the dummy changes sides. Useful for testing tech punishes or how to deal with crossups.
- Added Character Tutorials: Each character now has simple tutorials in place to teach the beginning players how to perform all of their Special and Blockbuster attacks, with some helpful tips on their use. (Note: Completing these tutorials is now a requirement for the “Sküllgirls” trophy/achievement.)
- Hitboxes displaying when switching characters is replaced by temporarily displaying 8-bit versions of the art, which is much less disruptive to gameplay.
- PAL-50 support with correct frameskip on both consoles.
- Logos at startup are now skippable on both consoles.
- Sparring Mode now saves game state when turned on, and loads it when turned off. Stop the match to check something and resume exactly where you left off! If a new match is started with Sparring Mode already on, the behavior is the same as before.
- Black-and-white super background now fades out in 8f instead of 15f, hopefully helps with determining when DHCs are allowed.
- Only the player in charge of the menu can press the Cancel button to leave the Controller Select screen for Versus and Tournament mode.
- Button config screen now counts mapping the same button or moving the cursor as an action that will keep a player’s screen open when the other player dismisses their screen.
- Button config no longer ignores button presses when another button is held. You can go as fast as you want!
- Main Menu and Training Mode now have 2-player button config, rather than just first player.
- Display chosen assist-type names on character select screen.
- In the Tutorials, move inputs are now described with button icons instead of text.
Infinite Prevention System (IPS) changes:
- IPS now counts stand and crouch moves as the “same thing”.
- IPS now counts all strengths of a given special move as the “same thing”, meaning anything with the same motion but a different strength P or K. This was already true for most characters, so now it is true for everyone. Considering how rare un-chained special moves are, this should not affect very much except specific known instances.
- IPS burst-allowed hitsparks no longer show up on anything except the point character.
- Tag-in attacks are now covered by IPS.
- All tags and DHCs now start you at the correct IPS stage when comboed into.
- IPS correctly handles 1-frame links, for example in Parasoul’s {s.LK->s.HP xx LP Tear Shot, s.LK->s.HP, tear explosion, s.LK}, the last s.LK is now correctly flagged by IPS every time.
- IPS state no longer continues across zero-frame resets. Each new combo should be completely separate.
- Without a jump-in attack, your first ground combo no longer erroneously counts as your jump-in chain. Previously, at the start of a combo the exact same ground chain could be repeated three times, but only twice if preceded by a jump-in. Now, the same chain may only be repeated twice regardless of whether you started with a jump-in.
Gameplay changes:
- 3% game speed increase (frameskip interval changed). DOES NOT AFFECT FRAME DATA / RELATIVE MOVEMENT SPEEDS / ANYTHING ELSE RELATIVE TO OTHER CHARACTERS, only player-experienced game speed.
- Increase frames-per-timer-second to offset frameskip change, time-outs still take roughly the same amount of real time.
Command normals count as the same also, so s.F+HK = cr.HK = s.HK and j.B+LK = j.LK.
- Throw tech window increased from 6f -> 10f. Grab Bag tech window is still 4f.
- All assist knockdowns that would be red bounces are now green bounces: still completely vulnerable, techable 9f after hitting the floor, vulnerable as normal if not teched. Requires better timing to OTG off random assist hits now - see MvC2.
- Add LK+HP as an additional command for Assist 1. Should help pad players.
- Add right-stick assist calls: move the right-stick up for Assist 1, move down for Assist 2. More pad-player help. Can be disabled from Button Config screen.
- Specifically disallow same-frame throw plus assist-call inputs like LP+LK+MK or LP+LK+MK+HP to prevent 1-button throw+assist macro abuse.
- Assist calls are now valid for 5f after the input is entered, similar to MvC2.
- Assist character damage taken when hit changed from 6% extra -> 20% extra.
- Assist characters are now always shown behind point characters except when grabbing someone, meaning no more invisible mixups behind large assist moves.
- Changes to prevent dead body abuse: stop time when the point character is dead; attacker gains zero meter from the act of hitting a dead point character, but dead character still gains meter by being hit; dead point characters become invincible as soon as IPS triggers on them.
- 5f input leniency added to chained normals, as well as normals and airdashes from jump/superjump/doublejump startup. You can now hit the next button 5f before your attack connects and it will come out, and you can now press buttons or input an airdash during jump startup and they will come out as if they were input on the first frame of the jump. Does not apply to throws!
- Fix assist call priority to prevent lots of weird cases of getting the wrong assist. Simultaneous inputs always win, so HK ~ LK+MP will be A1 and LK ~ HK+MP will be A2. For kara’d inputs, the input performed later will always win if they completed on the same frame, so HK~LK~MP is A1 but LK~HK~MP is A2. And lastly, calls for both are resolved for A2 (LK+MP+HK and LK+HK ~ MP) because they used to be random...but don’t do those. :^P
- Correct neutral-to-blocking transitions: changing block directions on the frame you are touched should no longer result in blocking a low attack with stand stance / blocking a high attack with crouch stance.
- All characters except Double can now cancel forward dash directly into backdash and backdash directly into forward dash. (Valentine will still get an airdash out of her ground backdash.)
- Allow PP backdashing from preblock animation. Previously when the opponent was attacking at close range B,B would backdash but B+PP would result in a normal attack. Now both will correctly backdash.
- Bug-to-feature conversion: Bursts now scale damage to 50%, plus count as one hit. ...why might this be necessary? (^.^)
theres more but this list is really long you can see the rest with the link

"...and every other fighting game you have never heard of. Plus Dragon Claw."
Maybe I'm stupid, but I've done some simple digging on the internet and... isn't Dragon Claw an original character for Mugen? Does this mean that someone in the skullgirls dev team knows who we are?
Perhaps we can get them to give us sprites to use to make skullgirls chars lol

They've funded Big Band as well as the mystery third character. I was reading through the playstyle possibilities of the characters (it's here - http://www.labzerogames.com/3rdcharacter/ (http://www.labzerogames.com/3rdcharacter/)) When I noticed one really interesting note in the style writing of Mrs. Victoria (the schoolteacher):Probably. This game was make by the FGC for the FGC, so I wouldn't doubt it.

Anyway, Isaac's mechanics intrigue me:

They certainly know about Mugen, but I'm pretty sure they don't take it as seriously.In today's Salty Cupcakes, Mike Z said he thought about MUGEN when trying to make a fighting game, but decided he couldn't do what he wanted to do with it, so he created the Z Engine.

Don't worry. This may have brought it back.
I hope so...I've missed out so much in this game. It would be great if Skullgirls made it to Evo. Also I may record some more videos, but I wish I had a better capture card because this Dazzle kinda sucks now. You can't even see the names of the players. Whatever works I guess...

Very well, for now I only know how to use Parasoul (somehow someway...), I wish I could get better with Cerebella, Valentine, or Painwheel.
I have another long video recorded, just needs editing and it'll be ready for upload.

Parasoul is my favorite too. I picked her up becasue she's the one with glasses. Her mobility is low but it's fun building combos off of the tools she does have.
Post by: Space (DCL) on July 01, 2013, 03:47:33 PM
I just need to learn more combos, and no I dont watch combo videos, I like to come up with my own stuff so people won't complain about "stealing" combos.

From the looks of these, I'd say Parasoul is your top pick.
She is, currently she's the only one I know how to somewhat use. Though no Double Jump, and No Air Dash, she makes up for it with fantastic mixups.

Hey, everyone - I just wanted to take a little of your time to update you on the status of the PS3 and Xbox 360 patches.
As it’s been alluded to in the past, things have not always been hunky-dory between Autumn Games and Konami. Around the time of the last update, it became clear that it would not be possible to proceed with the new patches as long as Konami was involved with Skullgirls.
So, as of today, Autumn and Konami have terminated their business relationship, allowing us to move forward with the PS3 and Xbox 360 patch in a more timely and cost-effective manner.
Testing on the patches is nearly complete, and we’re happy with how thorough our testing partner, Digital Hearts, have been in their review. But we’re still not out of the woods yet - before we can submit the patches to Sony and Microsoft for certification, the game needs to be transferred to a new publisher in their systems.
Autumn Games will be the new publisher of Skullgirls on PSN. We expect this transition to happen pretty quickly as Autumn Games has already taken the first steps to making it happen.
Since Microsoft doesn’t support purely digital publishers, Autumn is currently working with MarvelousAQL to secure a replacement XBLA publishing slot - this is an essential step, because without this Microsoft would simply delist the game from the Marketplace.
Because of the different levels of complexity with these transitions, the PS3 version of the patch should once again be out before the Xbox 360 release. But Xbox 360 owners shouldn’t worry - the delay between the two shouldn’t be anything like that with the previous patch, now that we have the format of the patching mastered.
Finally, since Konami was the distributor in the US and EU and not Japan, this shouldn’t have any profound effect on the release of the Japanese PS3 patch. However, before we can finalize the Japanese PS3 patch we need to get the US and EU patches completed. We’re working closely with our Japanese distributor, CyberFront, to make sure that all of the patches land as close to each other as possible.
So there you have it.
We apologize that these deep business dealings have come between you and the first character your collective efforts have funded, but we’re confident that subsequent patches will go more smoothly with this all of this behind us.
As always, thanks for your patience and understanding, and feel free to ask questions directly to indiegogo (at) labzerogames (dot) com.

Salty! Dec 06 News on Linux/Mac and Console patches (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G4bDxb4JNwA#ws)
Youtube video courtesy of Makross. For the original source, go here: http://t.co/Xb1PB4pNvD (http://t.co/Xb1PB4pNvD)
tl;dr, Following Lab Zero ceasing relations with Konami, Konami has asked for Skullgirls to be de-listed from PSN and XBLA on the 17th and 31st of this month, respectively. Mike is working really hard to get a build through QA to be published by Autumn Games (PS3 EU PS3 NA)/Marvelous AQL (360)/CyberFront (PS3-Japan), but details are sketchy. One of the reasons a new build is necessary is that if SG keeps using the same Communications ID for the game, Konami would be able to shut the game down whenever it wants.
Lab Zero only found out about this through a Sony account manager after the request had been approved, so the decision is probably final. They have requested the date for the PSN takedown be moved until the end of the month, but after claiming that Sony and then Autumn wouldn't let them, all three asked for the date to be moved and Konami has not responded since then.
What does this mean for you?
Sony has said that people won't have to re-buy the game through the store, but because this has not happened before nobody knows exactly how the transition will work. Also, this should not remove the game from your hard drive if you already have it, but may or may not cause netplay issues.
Also, time that Mike spends on this is time he isn't spending on Big Band. On the upside, if the new verison gets through QA on the first try, there's a possibility that the Big Band Build will be up sooner than it would have been otherwise.
What you can do -
Please, don't talk crap about Konami online. It isn't going to change anything, makes us look bad, and makes them think that they've made the right decision. Nothing good will be achieved by ripping into the powerless intern managing Konami's twitter account, etc.
Test out the latest Beta build if you have it. Mike has very little time to test the build before submitting for QA (Monday) if we want to prevent the game from disappearing after getting pulled. If you know how, using the -log option to run the game may be useful.
Update: The best way to let Mike know about any issues with the Beta is to comment on the Patch Notes update on Steam, or else send a PM @Mike_Z on here.
Keep playing, and keep having fun. This isn't the end of the world.
If you want to buy a copy of the game to help support Lab Zero, buy the Steam version. The PS3 and 360 versions won't result in any extra money for L0 at this point, and Konami gets a cut from those.
More info will be added over the coming hours, but I wanted to get this out as quickly as possible.

This is a shame. IMO SKullgirls has the best dev team and *flame shield up* community of any fighting game out there.

Wow Vad you're member number 1! Heh.
Oh hey, I can answer those questions:
Will the steam version be affected?
Nope!
[edit] There won't be updates to it - besides beta changes->real game - until this stuff is dealt with, but that's all.
Will game re-certification cut into IGG funds?
No, thankfully certification submissions are free on both consoles now. I THINK.
Also the artists are still working on Big Band cleanup / Eliza animation, it's just Ravidrath and myself that are doing this junk.
Does this mean that Lab Zero can use the Konami Code now?
Yes. But do we really want to anymore?
If anything I'd use it upside-down and backward (Start Select A B R L R L U U D D, the Lab Zero code?) or make it delete your game or something.
Does this mean that Lab Zero will be less likely to look at DLC/regular-update models for future games?
No, at least not for me. I am thrilled with both of those choices because it gives us an unprecedented* ability to communicate with the fans and improve the game to their liking (or disliking, heh). It certainly DOES mean looking more carefully at who we join up with to do business in the future.
You missed a bit of news, though admittedly it came later on in the stream:(click to show/hide)
* Try spelling that with very little sleep. Took me four tries.
i honestly dont think this makes a difference its almost impossible to even find matches online for this game. when there are ppl on its at most of them for lobby matches whenever i try and 2 of the 3 will be from japan with horrible connection. the game has been dead for a while, its always something. not blaming them but thats just how it is. every time we expect an update it gets pushed back again :-??1. Almost everyone has moved to the PC version of the game and the beta because of the patch thing.
atleast ppl with pc can enjoy it on steam with no probs
2. Most of the patch problems can be attributed to Microsoft and Konami. The team has been very open about this, which has lead to some streams having all traces removed from the internet.

Good morning, everyone! We understand that quite a few people still have not received their vouchers for their upgrade to #Skullgirls Encore.
First, some clarification: the vouchers being sent out are for the US PSN version only. We'll have news on the EU PSN version, the JP PSN version, and the 360 version soon. The US PSN version was the first to make it through the approval process.
Second, we sincerely apologize for the delay in receiving the vouchers. We are trying to get word from Sony on the status of the messages. There are several thousands of them that are being sent out, and we don't know how long it's supposed to take for all of them to reach their destination. We are told that this is only the second time Sony has ever done anything like this.
Lastly, because Sony is sending the vouchers out, we unfortunately don't have a way to check on the status of individual vouchers, and have no way to speed up the distribution process. A number of us at the office still haven't receive ours either.
If we receive any word from Sony regarding the situation, we'll post about it here on our page and on our twitter account: @Skullgirls
For those wondering, we would have loved to submit a patch update instead, but since we switched publishers, it wasn't possible to do so with the way PSN is set up.
We are sorry for any frustration or inconvenience caused.

Obvious shots being fired at Capcom is obvious. Though it was a joke they are including her as well. I think it only took a week for this character to be done...a week...
Mike Z already confirmed it took only 3 days.
