Jotaro Kujo (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure)

I can't beat the crap out of you without getting closer...
You better not make him angry, otherwise he's going to show you retribution and it won't be fun...
Jotaro Kujo, the star, the crusader, joins the fight, show your opponents just how overwhelming the strongest stand can be!




Jotaro is a rushdown character focused less on combos and more on raw power, doesn't mean he doesn't have combo potential, though it will definitely be harder to net simpler strings with him. Jotaro is a overall simple character who's meant to make you feel like you're beating your opponents into a pulp!

Jotaro's main gimmick is his stand, Star Platinum. While performing jab, a tilt, dash attack or any aerial, you can press the shield button (or in this case the stand button) to have Star Platinum perform an attack alongside you, the attack varies based on input and it's not limited to what you're performing now. For example, if you use ftilt then quickly press up before pressing shield, Star Platinum will perform up tilt, and so on

Pressing shield during fspecial, uspecial or jab will make Star Platinum not return to you immediately after attacking, allowing it to control the area where it is. While detached, Star Platinum will automatically face the nearest opponent and will perform your inputs regardless of whether you press shield or not. Pressing shield during any stand attack will make it retreat at the end of it. Using up special will automatically recall the stand. While the stand is out, Jotaro will take slightly more damage from attacks. If the stand is hit it will retreat and Jotaro will take damage.
Certain attacks will make Star Platinum temporarily detached, allowing you to perform detached attacks on the fly but still have Star Platinum return to you right after

Pressing down and the special button after reaching the peak of up special will allow you to redirect it horizontally

After landing a long enough combo the hud colors will invert, if nspecial is pressed (while not in hitstun) any action you're currently performing will be canceled into the time stop. Jotaro will be fully invincible while time is stopped and all damage dealt to an opponent will be stacked up and dealt all at once after, projectiles Will be frozen in place and will only move again as soon as time resumes

Jotaro was a rather quick project all things considered, I was already working on DIO (very slowly) when I found Gonker's post with the base sprite, so I hit the guy up and the collab started. Give or take 3 months later he was finished, Gonker is a great sprite artist and his help with DIO after was very appreciated. Overall I'm so happy this is all done.
Also, massive thanks to MisteryJoJo for going along with my ideas and making the panels for the trailer, in the end it was worth it
