I downloaded this character expecting total and utter horse crap, but to my pleasant surprise, Insane hiryu isn't the worst thing ever. and the fact that it's sinasta's first public character release, i'm going to go a bit easy on this one.
let's start with graphics, shall we? the sprite alignment could be better. way better. the character jitters quite a bit, and is even floating above the ground when he crouches. not very pleasing to the eyes. other than that, i have no gripes with the rest of the graphics, except for quality, and maybe a few stray pixels out and about.
the clsn boxes are horrible. they are some of the worst i've ever seen, by far. now, to sinasta's credit, this is his first official character, so maybe he'll learn how to be more efficient with clsn boxes with time, but these boxes just suck. honestly. a blind legless horse could make better clsn boxes with its third nipple. i'd go as far as to say the clsn boxes have better animation than the character itself, with their constant wiggling and whatnot.
many invalid states and similar messages clutter the top of the screen. uh, i'm guessing that that means something is missing. i think sinasta should fix that pronto.
the character's gameplay is okay, at best. it is a 6 button character, in case you were wondering. some of the attacks do way too much damage, namely the supers. "??????" does way too much damage for a level 2 super. it reminds me of something that would be a hyper combo ultimate maximum finisher!!! or something. "Cypher's fury" also does too much damage for a level 1 super. Some of his attacks are quite useless, such as his teleport sweep thing. it goes the same distance no matter what button yo u press, and has little use. oh, and according to many people, his air HK trips the opposing character rather than his crouch hk. he also has quite a few infinites that need to be worked out.
all in all, it's not a great character, maybe not even a good character to some, but it does show a trickle of promise. if sinasta works hard and improves*, since this is his first effort, insane hiryu may become something other than a novelty.
*he should also work on improving his grammar. honestly.
