Ravenous - The Lord Of Pain
created by Ex-Inferis
review by Legato
download: One of the three addresses in the readme.

Here's a quick guide to make Ravenous-esque sprites for YOUR original character:

  • Take the sprite of a character of your choice.
  • Make a palette that changes everthing except for the head and hair black. (You may need to adjust some colors.)
  • You're done!
  • So, for those not paying attention, the sprites are a crappy palette swap of Freeman. But more than that - this character is a crappy edit of a Freeman character. And you know how much I hate code theives.

    But first, let's talk about the gameplay. Talk Freeman. Add some stupid fireball moves. Add some lame supers that usually give you back all the power it took to use them, and that have virtually no charge-up time. You've got Ravenous. Freeman's QCF+Punch attack now uses a crappy looking axe or knife now - and is coded in such a way that at close range, it can go right past the opponent and not hit (see screenshot.) And I found a pretty easy infinte - QCB+Y super, wait until all the stupid wind things dissapear (use KFM's stage so you can see the shadows vanish), then move yourself closer and repeat while the opponent is still in the air. Since you automatically get back 1 meter of super (which you need for the move) whenever it hits, you can easily kill your opponent.

    Also, why is the "Hadouken" a helper called "Haohshoukouken?" Something tells me a lot of creators had their code stolen for this mess. Don't encourage code theives - don't download this character. Why this got character of the week at Mugen Guild I will never understand.


    Pros and Cons
    + Freeman's cool.

    - This is Freeman with crappy added moves and more cheapness.
    - Lots of stolen code.
    - Shitty sprite edits.

    Overall Score: 11
    Yes, 11. Code thieves get no love.
