Project Luffy

POSTPONED!!! Project Luffy

This is where i will update my luffy project, other than the weekly post on the main part of the blog. but for those who are wondering who the hell Luffy is, here is a description. skip downward if you want to actually see the brawl hacks.

Luffy is a very un-average man, not only due to his immaturity, but his ability. when he was a child, he ate one of the many devil fruits, cursing him with with a body of rubber and removing his ability to swim in salt water. Using his rubber abilities, luffy intends to become the next pirate king, but thats a challenge due to The World Government and other pirates, on top of the 300 million bounty on him. His normal attacks consist of him yelling “Gomu Gomu No” (or Gum Gum in English) and then inserts some other cool word and stretches one or more of his body parts to attack his opponents. As of this Moment, he has 2 Extremely badass moves, Named gear 2nd and Gear 3rd.

When Luffy uses gear second, he rapidly pumps blood from his leg, to other parts of his body, dramatically increasing his power and speed. The only reason he can maintain this form is because his heart is made of rubber (you expected me to say gold didn’t you?), and can handle the blood flow, but a normal humans heart would be torn to shreds by using this Technique. Instead of yelling the usual phrase gomu gomu no, he yells “Jet” and inserts the name of his move. The gear 3rd technique is very different though. He basically just bites his thumb, and blows air into it. a lot of air. and his arm expands. a lot. He can then transer the air to any part of his body, and instead saying “Gomu Gomu No”, he yells gigante.

But of course, luffy has his flaws. to start off, his gear 2nd/3rd attack dramatically drops his lifespan everytime he uses it, due to the massive strain on his heart and body. His gear 3rd alone leaves him 1/4 of his original size temporarily after releasing the air. The most notable flaw of luffy, and ever other devil fruit user is that he cant swim, and when he even gets near salt water, he begins feeling fatigued.

The Project Base so far

So heres the idea. to start things off, i will be texturizing and animating luffy onto solid snake. I will program and test all of the animations before moving to the next step, which is the transfer. the transfer is basically exporting all of snakes edited animation, and putting the onto wario and warioman (that also means i will be model swapping luffy onto wario and warioman). the reason for that is so i can have gear 2nd as his final smash, and has a completely different texture with it. From there, it is all PSA work, which wont be too hard compared to animating. now comes the toughest part of all, its something called balance. this will be designed for use with Brawl+. something else i would also like to say is that i am releasing this as something im going to call a base. that means that anyone in the brawl hacking community can use anything contained within this project as a base for there own, or to add toward this one.
