Rose Ninja Character: Rose

Akake on 2009/05/15 07:17 of Laser Samurai is Return!

I've decided to write down notes about the various characters in the game, both enemies and player characters.

First up is the game's star protagonist, Rose.

Rose's four attacks are:
Standing: A plain ol' slash
Running: A lunging slash
Airborne: A (cheesy) somersault slash
Crouch: A jumping uppercut
Projectile: Shuriken
(The melee attack used when wall-sliding or climbing a ladder is the same as the attack used when standing, just with different sprites. Similarly, the attack used when swimming is the same as the one used when airborne)

Rose looks a bit different this time around. Her stealth suit has baggier sleeves and legs, and she has foregone the full head-mask in favor of a face-mask and a ponytail.

Rose's stats are:
Health: Bad
Attack Damage: Average
Running Speed: Good
Jump Height: Good

I'll post a sheet of her sprites once I've got them all done! BooYeah!

Sounds good. :)

Just out of curiosity, what would be the gameplay difference between standing attack and crouch attack?

The crouch attack hits the enemies in the crotch? =P

Some games have it that you can toss enemies upwards if you attack from a crouching position. For instance, Mortal Kombat's uppercut.

I'm not sure if that's Akake's goal, but it could (?) be nifty. =)

That's one of the things that the attacks will do, but I will try to do it more cleanly than in the Pyweek version.

And yes, the enemies get hit in the crotch. The boy enemies wear cups, and the girl enemies don't have that particular vulnerability. ;-P
