Flare the Lizard v1.9 - Simplified
![]() Developer Last Online: Sep 2020
DISCLAIMER: This mod is not associated with any other Flares in SRB2.
A new face joins the battle to stop Eggman! A Disastrous Beginning As far as the public is concerned, Flare isn't a hero. Supposedly, he's a monster. After footage leaked of an underground experiment that he sneaked into, his reputation went south, leading to him being ejected from his hometown. With no means of survival on his own, he fled to another town to hide in safety. Now, the mysterious Black Rock has returned to the planet's orbit, and news spreads of Dr. Robotnik's conquest of it. The opportunity to turn his life around has finally arisen for the young lizard! Will he be successful, or does fate have other plans? Find out next time, on Sonic Robo Blast X! Abilties Flare's jump strength is second to none, and he gets up to speed fast! Of course, that's not all he's got: Fire/Spin - Flame Shot With the press of a button, Flare can launch a ball of fire. Blast Badniks anywhere, anytime, at almost any distance! FireNormal - Flamethrower (Classic only) Need something a little more aggressive? Hold FireNormal to torch that pesky blockade! You can't move while using this, and jumping will stop the stream. Double Jump - Tail Swipe Those plates aren't just for show! Take Flare for a spin with the Jump button - press multiple times for a rapid rotation! Spin - Spindash/Roll (Classic only) While standing still, hold down Spin to drop to the ground and rev up, then release to shoot off with a burst of flame! Alternatively, tap it while moving to curl up and knock down anything in your way. Passive - Fire Immunity For better or worse, the experiment Flare was caught in changed his life forever. A side effect of this? Fire and lava can't hurt you! Watch out for some lava falls, though - if the falls don't kill you, the void will. Other Features
Special Thanks
As my first vanilla SRB2 mod, it was certainly a far cry from making a Kart mod. I definitely feel like I've learnt a few things about the spriting process, Lua coding and matching the SRB2 artstyle. I hope you enjoy playing as Flare! From 1.8 onwards, the download features two versions: The main file, which simplifies Flare's moveset down to Jump and Spin to make him more inline with the vanilla cast; and the "classic" version, which uses 1.7's control scheme. Hopefully this will please everyone. Let's be realistic, though: it won't. Currently known bugs Spoiler: CHANGELOG Spoiler: Download Now

It's been real fun to see this lil guy progress in discord, and I wanna congratulate you on the official release! Flare's a great new addition.
Honestly, my favorite part is the amount of work put into the detail of this character. It's already a pain for me to make unique rotation sprites up to 5, and you went with 8 for most if not the entire character. That is so much more, extra work that I feel would go unnoticed by a good chunk of the playerbase. Flare is cute, his animations are pretty solid and all the custom rotation work is phenomenal. As for gameplay, it's pretty good. Simple and fun! It's not as barebones as a simple S_SKIN character, but not overcomplicated and overwhelmed with fifty thousand different buttons and abilities. It's a balanced mix. His fireball is the one i used the most. No complaints, it does what it needs to do. Just wish it was moved to Tossring, honestly. Combining a Twinspin like move plus the spindash was weird, but a very cool inclusion - kinda like having Amy spin, but also her hammer can be used multiple times. All in all, a really fun and solid character. As for some feedback... Spoiler: Feedback

the shield abilities still works even if they shouldn't, so it makes hard to use the tail swipe

This is a really great character, i enjoyed my time a ton with him, his design is cute, his abilities are fun, and it's rare to see characters that experiment with stats, so, this is good, the perma fire caused a bug? exploit? whatever you wanna call it, to me right away, it's with golden monitors, the fire would constantly break the monitors, otherwise, this is a really great character

Thank you to everyone for providing feedback! I wanted to fix as much as possible to make this a more enjoyable experience.

It's a bit annoying to being unable to use the shield abilities
You should make them work again and restrict Tail Swipe to Jump, like Amy does with her airborne hammer swing while using shields

It feels like every mod maker just hates shield abilities, or thinks that they're stupid or dumb. Like 5 character mods disable shield abilities.
- Modern Sonic - Kirby - Werehog (he can at least use armageddon) - Yoshi - Flare I probably missed some but idk, I guess some people just don't think they're important. Or they're just "special people", like Modern Sonic is def OP, but they probably can't use shield abilities because BALANCE??? I don't get it, maybe its the same reason Cobalt or maybe Katmint want to make Tails' flight slow as hell because "he can skip portions of levels." like nobody cares about character balance, if flight becomes not fun to use, then... that's a WHOLE different topic though.

Thank you for the further feedback! With all this in mind, I'm happy to bring you the 1.7 update! This should hopefully remove any SIGSEGVing that the prior versions had.
What's New:
---------- Post added at 12:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:29 AM ---------- It's been like an hour and it's become clear that some changes weren't right. So, I give you 1.8, which should hopefully appeal to both groups. The new zip file contains two versions: one with the streamlined control scheme, and the "classic" version with the full arsenal.
---------- Post added at 01:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:51 PM ---------- okay so theres still a few bugs lying around. i'll put 1.7 back up until i fix everything ---------- Post added at 01:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:01 PM ---------- Fixed the bugs (hopefully). 1.8 is safe to use again.
