Usher

Usher loves rain, snow, umbrellas and chocolates.

awaken.

Usher Evalate, a girl who lives in an entire world of desperate utopia, seemingly, wishingly, free of conflicts. Her life is nothing more than a slice-of-life, not an adventure.
Not much things happened in her life to fill a profile for her, but that means she has lots more to experience in the world.
But experience is hardly gained from lack of trouble. And besides, life is not free of trouble, is it? Time and time again, her life twists and turns to see more trouble.
And this string of fate crossing, between worlds... is not one of these twists. it is strictly not canon

"my character was... greatly overhyped"
Her moveset and gimmick is a simple one. You don't have to play too long to figure out what she can do!

i do write changelogs, so check out the changelog page if you are curious what has been changed!



:: Neutral Special (Iceball)
...You know the iconic plumbers right? Yeah, those ones. This Neutral Special? It's literally their Neutral Special also.
But this time, it's an ice ball! Not that it makes much of a difference, but it Feels different, right??
Usher creates a forward-moving projectile that follows gravity, and bounces back up upon touching the ground.
I even tried my best to get the physics right, too. The height against the platform and the bounce height and all that.
And yes, you can "wavebounce"!
A new addition is that the grounded version of this move now throws the iceball high up with her umbrella! might create some interesting interactions!?

:: Side Special (Weather Flipside)
Usher charges up by spinning her umbrella, and releases it by thrusting the umbrella forward, letting out a freezing burst!
You can charge it more by holding SPECIAL, and even store the progress by pressing PARRY!
The umbrella blast gives Usher a recoil momentum backwards, which scales with how much you've charged the move!
It sends you pretty far with it fully charged! It might be a little hard to use it well, but it's probably a nice extra tool to have still!
In addition, when fully charged, it also shoots out a raincloud, of which the rain can be frozen over with your ice moves!
This is a whole extra bit of utility that's too long to explain here. Try it out yourself!

:: Up Special (Thru-cloud)
It looks like there's starting to be a pattern but nope, this move doesn't freeze stuff.
Up Special sends you upward with a hitbox on you! There's an early extra hitbox right before you launch up, too.
The early hitbox sends opponents downward if you are in the air when you start the move!
In addition, by holding or pressing SPECIAL at the peak of the ascent, Usher will open the umbrella, slowing down descent! Lets you float down and drift horizontally too.

:: Down Special (Weather Flipside)
A forward leap riding the umbrella. It can be held for a little while and you bounce on grounds, and with the hitbox on the umbrella, you can bounce on opponents too!
After a bit, you can exit it by releasing special, pressing parry, or pressing jump. Around the same time, you'll be able to fastfall, too.
It's a fine recovery move, maybe! You can walljump out of it, make good use of that!

:: Other details
- Neutral Air is a long-lasting kick, seen often in other Neutral Airs. Usher's work slightly different in that you can press ATTACK again to do an extra downward kick to launch people down!
- Forward Tilt is a forward umbrella swing. Sounds simple enough, and it is - but have you ever heard of Pivot Cancel? It's where you dash, and quickly turning around for a split second before doing Forward Tilt in the direction you were dashing originally. If successful, you do Forward Tilt instead of Dash Attack. This grants you extra forward momentum and range! This is, uh, probably only possible with Tilt Stick though.

it means a lot that you're still here.
as you do, you may as well enjoy the rain, not endure it. it'll help you along in the long run.
and besides, it doesn't have to rain forever.
