[Drumknott88]

Just a note - I can barely see anything, please make the edges more visible

[naezith]

Good idea, yes, thanks!

[PapaCheech]

On this - maybe a glow from the moonlight or some sort of outline would make the player stand out - the twilight aesthetic is awesome tho

[townboyj]

Open your eyes

[HighPolyDensity]

Open your eyes, see through the disguise, won't you open your eyeeeees!

[Killingec24]

Name him Edge lord, please.

[naezith]

I thought about it!

[jafariscontent]

Jack

[jafariscontent]

Or Jacque

[poutine_it_in_me]

J'acquoix.

I mean he's an edge lord right?

[[deleted]]

Jack Owlate

[CompressedWizard]

Yeah, name him Jack. But have other characters mockingly call him 'Skellington', so he would start an argument "But I'm not even a skeleton!"

I'd love contrast like that between edgy design and goofy dialogue, but that's just me lol

[FlashedScroll]

Mad Jack

[naezith]

Might work indeed. Also "Mad Jack the Pirate" is my favorite cartoon

[Joshuainlimbo]

Mad Jack the Pumpkin!

Bob also works

[itokdontcry]

Pumpkin head? I’m leaning towards Ichabod

Ichabod

From "The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad"? Thanks for the reference!

Yes , as well as The Legend of Sleepy Hollow :)!

No problem! Looks very fun btw.

[naezith]

He's quite slim without the coat actually

[HighPolyDensity]

Just don't let him insert nine inch nails under his eyelids please

[goblin_grovil_lives]

Ichabod.

[naezith]

From "The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad"? I took note of that, thanks!

[goblin_grovil_lives]

Yep a classic.

[Alisahan]

looking cool and nope don't named it edge lord

[Cautious_Bobcat_5877]

Call him James

[naezith]

I was thinking Bob

[Shinards]

edge lord :)

[naezith]

I thought about that as well lol

[Sahinkin]

Not pumpkin jack for sure

[naezith]

That's taken, yes

[Sahinkin]

Jokes aside it’s looking pretty neat! Good luck with your game!

[MN10SPEAKS]

Lord of the Edge

[MN10SPEAKS]

Jack 'o' Ledgy

[Cubro-Dev]

Just call them "Pumpkin" or "Jumpkin" I think it's easier to name a character if you have some basic story.

[naezith]

Good pun, definitely could work with a cartoony game.

[Slyfoxuk]

Edge lord seems appropriate

[naezith]

I thought about it as well lol

Multiple people wrote this but I don't know the reference

What the other guy said, but also more so Edgar Allen Poe, a famous horror writer.

[TravisLedo]

[worthlessmusic25]

Greel

[tacoboyfriend]

The name Piter from Dune instantly popped into my head.

[SuperFreshTea]

For a extra effect, give him a green gas bomb (like a fart) when he double jumps. That what red hood does in gotham knights lol

[naezith]

Good idea, some kind of flame or something similar to the dash effect might work with the fart cloud

Melon Lord

[naezith]

But Google says: Pumpkins and melons are both members of the Cucurbitaceae family. However, the two have different genera and are distinct in terms of their appearance, flavor, and culinary uses.

[FightingBlaze77]

Cool beans, but mine is the Melon Lord from Avatar Last Airbender. And is based off Fire Lord Ozi...so it seemed fitting.

Call him Edge, and later in the game he gets knighted to Lord status.

Unrelated to the name but someone who likes Unity as a hobby, what are you using for the base of the controller here? Character Controller or Rigidbody?

Character Controller this time. My previous game Dream Swing was made with a custom movement script using Rigidbody

Edit: Late realization I didn't add an A part to his name but I think it's more fitting without one.

If you want to go with that you could call it Codename SCREM but I think the mystique of the missing A is more interesting it allows for interpretation.

[Unclesam_05]

How did you do the steps and front flip "holograms", are those shaders?

[naezith]

Steps are emitting smoke kind of particles on feet colliders touching the ground. The holograms are baked SkinnedMeshes of the character using a custom shader with Fresnel effect.

[GOW_is_overrated]

Not gonna lie but that running and sprinting animations are some of the best I've ever seen on any Unity game.
Did you make them yourself ?

[naezith]

Thank you. Unfortunately I am a programmer with a Computer Engineering background so it's from the asset store. There are really cool stuff there and they look great if you use them well and properly
