Ok so recently I have been playing like a lot of persona like constantly playing and replaying persona 3-5 and maybe one day I will play 1 and 2 but one my favorite things from the game were of course the critical hit animations when of course you get a critical hit!

so while I’m working for the bosses for the game currently I thought of adding of course and idea simlar to it because I thought it would be super friggin cool and because it’s an awesome idea so I made 2 of the guy with the stop sign and Diego from the series @JtSpeedRun made as something similar to like and a unlockable boss fight!

well this is basically the finished design of that character I made since the unfinished drawing kind of did look weird, I had the design finished the day after posting the one this topic but I never bothered to show it off because I lowkey kind of forgot 😅

Maybe if enough people ask for me for it, but it does seem like really cool idea!

Is that shading? I thought it was just cool looking gradients.

I like their art style because it is so unique.

this is basically the testing I was doing to get all of this coded and I will say it was really really diffcult! like I felt like I had to pull some super complicated Einstein type stuff to get it coded in!

basically just for testing currently and I will update this test thing soon after! if your wondering about how it been months since I actually updated the game hyper the dragon the next release will be the full release and I have a lot of cool stuff planned for it and already a full story and bosses planned out for it so just keep waiting!

even after a few years people are still looking forward and appreciate this game and I’m very grateful for that fact so just hold in there! so besides that by!!!
