I'm a professional animator and digital artist with a huge love of fighting games and flashy combos. I'm also completely programming-illiterate. This is the game I used to fantasize about. The editor takes a bit of getting used to, but once you understand what's what, it's incredibly simple to use and puts a ton of potential at your fingertips. It allows someone like me, with zero programming knowledge, to create branching move trees, charged and uncharged projectiles, transformations, weapon-switching attacks, and all sorts of other wild shit that I would have zero idea how to code otherwise. Did I mention my digital art experience is exclusively 3D? The rig system is that good. The in-betweens are messy and tend to blur some of the detail, but there's genuinely no way around that without cleaning up every in-between by hand - which you can do by baking the rig to individual sprite frames, if you feel so inclined. Personally, I've just been using the basic rig and occasionally drawing the VFX for certain attacks, and I'm genuinely impressed by how good it looks in motion. The game's not without its flaws, and it's probably not a good choice for Baby's First Animation Project - you'll have a much easier time with the editor if you already have a general idea of how animation programs tend to work. That said, the devs have clearly put a lot of effort into making it as beginner-friendly as possible, and I found a lot of their tutorials and documentation legitimately helpful. Also, I fucking love the entire concept of this game and I've wanted to play something like it for years. Fingers crossed they continue supporting Smack Studio for a long time.

This game is everything a kid who grew up on Smash Bros could ever want. Anyone can make anything. Compared to other games like Rivals of Aether, this is so much more beginner-friendly. It's so nice that there are templates, and I don't need to know how to code. It's straight heat. I've been making characters for about 9 months now. I went into this thinking I'd get bored after a week or so. Yet here I am writing this review. I can't wait for 1.0. And to the devs, you guys are actual legends for making this possible. The community here is incredible.

This is a great pixel art tool, I have just been playing around with it but I'm positive this will save thousands of hours and make very nice smoothly animate pixel art sprites a possibility for your game project. get it, support it. I have literally no interest in the game the editing tool is attached to, didn't even try it. this needs to be in the art/design tools section, forget about the game and put all your efforts into this amazing editor (don't take business advice from me, I'm selfishly speaking for my own self interests here:) )

Feb. 2024

Honestly, I could care less about the game it's not great. Just play Rivals of Aether if you want a game. However the toolkit here is the selling point, and that part is fantastic. Honestly, I wish they would give up on the game part and develop this as a toolkit instead. Increase canvas sizes, improve rigging system, etc.
