thanks for the small but honest review :D
Maril
my favorite part was when specki said it's specking time and specki'd all over the place

Deleted my previous and rather harsh response to this review to think of it in a new light.
I appreciate you for trying out speckichars and giving your own honest opinion on it, and I'd like to clarify some things in a better way.
Both the characters aren't finished, and it's more likely they'll never truly be finished in my eyes, even if they seem so in another's.
Maril's missing a lot of sprites since she was carried over from another unfinished project of mine, so she only has single sprite rotations in various sprites. (even though it adds to the charm a bit :P)
Another thing I mentioned rather rudely was how Specki is transfem due to her trans flag wave. While this is true, I could see why you could've interpreted it as a FtM transition rather than a MtF transition, explaining your use of "his" and "he" in your review. I would like to correct myself for boldly saying that the trans flag confirms she's female, when it could've been the other way around.
Both characters are definitely different, and are both very much simple in their own ways, but this is intentional so they could be played by anyone and everyone without issues. They both take design cues from Sonic, and Mario games specifically, making one seem more broken than the other, or the other way around. I really appreciate your suggestions, and Specki is definitely going to be a slight bit faster in v1.2. Maril's flight being broken is something that I've joked about w/ others, and it's 100% intentional! You can prefer her over Specki without any issues. But there's people out there that find more enjoyment in Specki than Maril, it all comes to preference.
It's ok that the characters aren't for you, and you clearly acknowledged that I put a lot of work into both Specki and Maril, and I accept this review with sincere apologies. The style likely isn't going to change anytime soon (if at all), but I hope people can look at it in a different way than just "mspaint character w/ meh abilities." It would really help keep me motivated to work on them y'know. :P
