wiloxy5879 9 Jul, 2024 @ 9:33am 
ok😀
FelixBlobDev  [author] 9 Jul, 2024 @ 7:48am 
@wiloxy5879
Best way to do that is to contact me over on Discord and such. We got our own server (linked in each character description) and stuff too, so you're welcome to stop by!
Be aware that full characters are pretty expensive though! Most people expect them to be cheaper than they are, haha.

there is a glitch that activates automatically the triforce mode against UI Goku
if you want to try it, just try it
wiloxy5879 8 Jul, 2024 @ 6:11pm

wiloxy5879 8 Jul, 2024 @ 6:06pm

@wiloxy5879
Thank you and I'm glad you like Toon Link, haha! Give him a vote and check out the rest of the roster too, if you haven't!
We've got like 20+ characters by now that are all the same quality (including another version of Toon Link that's resprited and more streamlined). The original Toon Link definitely still holds up as a lot of fun though, haha!
wiloxy5879 8 Jul, 2024 @ 9:50am

wiloxy5879 7 Jul, 2024 @ 4:46pm

@Pat
Thank you and glad you like him! Make sure to vote if you haven't, and feel free to check out the rest of our roster as well!
Particularly Smash Toon Link might interest you if you like Toon Link (though it's possible you know and simply prefer this version, which is also fine lol).

And no, personally I have no plans to do anything Rivals 2 related, haha.
Pat 18 Jun, 2024 @ 7:16am 
This is fantastic! Bravo! Definitely my workshop main atm. Not sure if you have answered this, but are you considering working on Rivals 2 mods when that game gets workshop support?
Tactical Rat 3 May, 2024 @ 6:15am 
copilot AI recommanded me this so...
Mr G 13 Apr, 2024 @ 3:40pm 
@GreenGuyGaming you can change his moves from the character select! by choosing the icon on the bottom you can open a menu and choose the moves from before the match starts!
GreenGuyGaming 12 Apr, 2024 @ 12:34pm 
maybe refine how u change his abilitys
thats really all complaint i have
hes fun, cool, strong, not op as hell.
hes probably one of the better mods the game has:tigerinablanket:

why is the etalus photo a ice climbers reference
FelixBlobDev  [author] 27 Jan, 2024 @ 2:46am 
@Tinarg Oh yeah, also just for another note that may be helpful: The big purple galaxy effect you see sometimes on hit is basically what signifies a guaranteed KO in Rivals!
So unless you see that effect, then the hit is possible to survive!
FelixBlobDev  [author] 27 Jan, 2024 @ 2:44am 
@Tinarg Hi! I'm glad you like the character! As for the balance question tough: Skull hammer doesn't reliably kill at 20, even at ledge, so are you sure your friends are DI'ing correctly?

As it is a powerful move, but it's not quite the strength you describe and that'd be the only way to reliably die at 20% to it. Rivals in general is notorious for those very early kills due to how strong DI is in this game, causing no DI or DI out to kill at incredibly early %. So that would be my guess, at least.
Unfortunately I can't balance towards that though, so I hope this helps somewhat! Let me know if there's anything else!
Tinarg 26 Jan, 2024 @ 11:12pm 
Hey! This character's moveset is super fun, but he's so OP that none of my friends let me play with him. It's really easy to combo ice arrows into hammer and reliable kill players at ~20% from anywhere on the stage.
The hammer in general is a ludicrously strong kill move... Maybe you could decrease the knockback and increase the startup? I think the ice arrows could use a nerf too.
FelixBlobDev  [author] 20 Dec, 2023 @ 12:48pm 
@karelisho
You can always try Smash Toon Link if you prefer a more streamlined Toon Link design! I made both for a reason, haha!
All that said, not sure what you mean twilight link? Toon Link doesn't use anything from twilight princess in his alternate specials.
karelisho 20 Dec, 2023 @ 11:27am 
this looks interesting altough its weard that the f and d special has different moves. i wonder how they work. Are you sure this mod is not twillight link?
Theodore Masters Peterson 15 Oct, 2023 @ 8:44pm 
the lore chickens...
FelixBlobDev  [author] 15 Oct, 2023 @ 8:22pm 
@king of pronouns
He is simply the son of Sol (the lore thickens)
Theodore Masters Peterson 15 Oct, 2023 @ 7:44pm 
i really like how toon link was just accepted as a god like the kewtians lmao
link 14 Oct, 2023 @ 8:34pm 
could you make ocarina of time link next? he's my favorite
AlexEspeon 25 Aug, 2023 @ 10:33am 
I like the character, but the description was a little long.
FelixBlobDev  [author] 22 Aug, 2023 @ 5:49pm 
@serenityghost21 The actual reason is that Toon Link was my very first character, and I was getting used to the sprite style and scale, haha! Hence why he had to be updated to be downsized (well that, and just sprite improvements too). I just left the Smash moveset and full resprite concept for Smash Toon Link, naturally!

And that makes sense, haha. Either way, glad you like them, and make sure to leave a like on the characters so others might see, if you didn't already!
serenityghost21 22 Aug, 2023 @ 5:20pm 
@FelixBlobDev Yeah I figured that the size was probably an artistic choice to differentiate between the two characters. What made me actually want a wind-waker like moveset over the Smash moveset was this video that reminded me of your character when watching it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqRZN8XIZo0 . Anyways, I always enjoy the characters you put out (especially Jigglypuff and Eggman) and I look forward to what you do next! :steamthumbsup:
FelixBlobDev  [author] 22 Aug, 2023 @ 5:12pm 
@serenityghost21 Making him a little smaller and his animations a little smoother was a big reason for Smash Toon Link being made actually (well that and the Smash moveset of course), so yeah makes sense haha.
Good you discovered that STL also includes some extra moveset stuff though; it can be a little obscure and I'm not sure everyone is aware due to that... But it can make him a lot more fun, if you're interested in still having some cool stuff like skull hammer and not purely the more basic Smash moveset.

All that said, glad you like the characters, I always appreciate hearing that! Definitely give everyone on the roster a go (and a like for visibility) if you haven't already, haha!
serenityghost21 22 Aug, 2023 @ 5:06pm 
@FelixBlobDev Actually I have been using your Smash Toon Link a lot! The moveset was really fun but I wanted to try out the wind waker-esque moveset with this version but I felt that the character was much bigger in comparison to the other characters on the roster. However, I just learned that you could actually use the original moveset on the Smash Toon Link which made me feel a bit stupid haha. I absolutely love the characters though and the rest of your roster! Thank you so much for your hard work!
FelixBlobDev  [author] 22 Aug, 2023 @ 4:44pm 
@serenityghost21 I don't think he is too large personally (although the original version of the character was, as he was downsized a bit later), but if you want a smaller Toon Link, then Smash Toon Link has existed since 2021, haha.

He's linked in the description and under the larger roster collection, so I totally recommend checking him out (and other characters).
serenityghost21 22 Aug, 2023 @ 4:35pm 
This character is great, I just wish there was an option to make the character smaller. He just seems comically large.
D YellowMadness 11 Aug, 2023 @ 9:14am 
He has all the same problems at level 2 that Toon Link has at level 1 except he's even stronger & his hitboxes are more oversized & illogically shaped.

Edit: After trying for hours to kill him & not being able to launch him more than a few feet, I decided to test it in Practice Mode & I had to get him well above 700% to kill him at ledge with a fully charged strong.
FelixBlobDev  [author] 10 Aug, 2023 @ 8:15am 
@D YellowMadness For a player, not really, or at least not fairly, haha.
It's more like a really overpowered AI you can put against other characters who might have a similar thing, but for players I don't think you'd beat it normally. As it's not unwinnable... Just really powerful and he can't be launched while attacking etc. It's more for the spectacle, to be honest!

All that said, other Kewtians like Matt, Aria, Sol, etc, have a similar boss mode. And out of those, Matt is unique in that he has 2 boss modes (its an older one before the one they have now, which I moved to lvl 2). The reason I'm telling you that, is that this 2nd boss mode is much more toned down and beatable for a player, so if you want a more fair challenge then that could be worth checking out!

If you check that out and its something you're interested in, I can probably add this 2nd boss mode to Toon Link and others as well, if you'd like. Just let me know!
D YellowMadness 9 Aug, 2023 @ 11:48pm 
Is the boss fight actually winnable? When I hit him, his damage increases but he doesn't move or flinch at all so no matter what attack I use, he just instantly kills me before my attack ends & there's no indication of progress.

Even when I hit him with Tenshi's counter attack to use his own strength against him so he takes 70+ damage, he still just instantly kills me.
FelixBlobDev  [author] 6 Aug, 2023 @ 2:10pm 
@Clocks08 No problem!
Clocks08 6 Aug, 2023 @ 12:34pm 
Yes, this is what was happening. Thanks!
FelixBlobDev  [author] 5 Aug, 2023 @ 3:03pm 
@Clocks08 Well, if I were to guess (as others have also made this mistake in the past): You have to hold a direction with the control stick when doing the taunt. So if you're using a controller, then simply using the d-pad in the different directions won't work. That might be it, anyway, lol.
Clocks08 5 Aug, 2023 @ 2:56pm 
Intresting, everytime I try to use a taunt it just defaults to the wind waker.
FelixBlobDev  [author] 5 Aug, 2023 @ 12:23pm 
@Clocks08 Toon Link has several taunts; the normal taunt is the wind waker one, up taunt is a minish cap taunt, and down taunt is the picto box with the pictograph compatibility. He also has a secret one, and Smash Toon Link has some unique ones as well!

But to answer your question: You'd have to use down taunt to take the picture, and if a character doesn't have support then it'll generally just default to a question mark picture. So you can still use it, but it won't have a proper photo if the other characters doesn't have support. Hope that helps!
Clocks08 5 Aug, 2023 @ 11:57am 
If characters don't have pictograph support does it just do the normal taunt?
FelixBlobDev  [author] 25 Jul, 2023 @ 8:00am 
@⑨lnsmall Glad you like the character! And yeah he's relatively simple overall, haha.
Definitely recommend checking Smash Toon Link as well if you haven't; he's a bit more polished animation-wise and can access some different movesets as well (although mainly through inputs at the start of the match, he doesn't have the item mechanic). Either version is fun though!
⑨lnsmall 25 Jul, 2023 @ 3:09am 
This might be my favorite workshop character I've played. His moves are just really satisfying to use, and I love how the swappable items gives you a ton of options without making the character feel convoluted like a lot of other complex / reference-heavy workshop characters. Also I'm just a big fan of 360° aimable projectiles :P
Pikaverse24 23 May, 2023 @ 4:09pm 
just to yet you know, I used 4 toon links and it ended up lagging with the Triforce move
OhHeSoPringles 7 Mar, 2023 @ 11:33am 
@FelixBlobDev NVM it actually works now.
FelixBlobDev  [author] 6 Mar, 2023 @ 10:51am 
@Bandu If you have the buddy on, the meter is full, and Special doesn't use the final smash then I'm not sure. I tested it again after your comment just to be sure, but it does activate as intended.
OhHeSoPringles 6 Mar, 2023 @ 10:35am 
@FelixBlobDev I did download the Final Smash Buddy, and tried using it on him, but he somehow doesn't have one when I press Special. (I already know how The Buddy works)
