StephChars v2.1 - World Of Colors Update! v2.1

These characters are amazing, and I'm glad you decided to make another character!

If Skip was good, his new partner is the same quality. Amazing Job!

What you got with Skip here is a fun utility character with interesting and beginner-friendly movement options. I think a lot of people miss a combination of a double jump with a dive so it's a welcoming sight to see this option presented. I especially like Skips friendly interactions with golden monitors that other people in MP can use (I mainly play this game in MP) and in boss fights, having a golden monitor ready to go is super helpful.

Skip is nothing short of a lot of fine-tuned effort and it shows. His movement especially in the air after following a dive is stupidly razor-sharp, allowing for some precision platforming parts to be mastered as I was to go in with two eyes closed, which is, in fact, blind!

With that being said, it cannot be overstated how busted Skip gets in vertical sections, and even in occasional horizontal parts. A double jump with TWO dives in succession is way too overpowered and allows for platforming challenges across the board to be skipped, plus it gives very good height with enough room given where I broke some of the levels I played completely in their structure. IMO you should consider fine-tuning his movement down to a bit to moderate values to have it be still a good option to go around, but not to the point where it makes Sonics Thok essentially inferior.

Otherwise, what you got here is a quality character I like to return to frequently. Thank you for this wonderful contribution and I wish you well <3.

Skip is an amazing character. In fact so much so that I'd went through the effort to make an account to express my opinion on him. He's almost perfect, but not bad enough for me to really give him anything less than 5 stars. A few of my nitpicks (Which can't be overstated on how much of a nitpick these things are) are as follows. Firstly, not a fan of the bangs, I don't like bangs, but that's just me. Secondly, I think that Skip's movement is a bit over-tuned, I think toning down his vertical mobility could really help the character feel more balanced. Lastly, I know it's from a pre-made script, and I understand that, but the Amy giggle from hugs is not ideal. Overall those things don't stop me from enjoying soaring through levels as Skip and droppin' shields for my buddies in co-op. I think the scrap mechanic is very interesting and enigmatic, it could be used for much more than just monitors, but what do I know?

I love Skip!!
As an addon he was one of my biggest inspirations to get into the SRB2 scene as a whole; I love how he controls, his gimmick, his animations. He's super cute and I love playing as him!

best character ever

I've always enjoyed Playing a Hat In Time (Except the Non-Boss Death Wishes lmao) so having a similar playstyle in SRB2 feels very welcome, the collecting gimmick is also very clever and enjoyable! Fine work!
