Pepperman is complete! That's the 3rd battle of the update done, and with that it is over 90% complete! Read the article for details on Pepperman's attacks


Shoulder bash - Pepperman charges forward towards Peppino and upon leaving the screen, HUD elements show up depicting what Pepperman is doing and where he is relative to Peppino's location. Some of his art will spawn for you to dodge while he turns around and rushes right back to you.

Sculpture - Pepperman plops a rock canvas down in front of Peppino and you need to hit it to create an art piece to satisfy Pepperman or else he will stomp on you. Accidentally slapping away the finished piece will anger Pepperman and he will take an extra turn to perform a more difficult version of the shoulder bash attack.

Art barrage - A canvas spawns next to Pepperman and he paints enemies to rush towards Peppino. One of these enemies can be ducked under.

Bouncy pepper - Pepperman ground pounds and starts bouncing around the arena. The only way to keep him away is to hit him in the air or on the ground until the attack ends.

This was a really fun battle to make as it tested my updated coding method. Hope you enjoy the update when it comes out!

We at the Superstar Simulator coding team (of 1) take our work VERY seriously

I made the first devlog to catch everyone up on how the game is going. Enjoy!

I need to adjust every battle to accommodate for the playable characters' new code. Here's some WIP footage of Peppino's improvements against The Noise

Who's also excited for the new Mario & Luigi game?! #GJAsks

Here's Wario's finished piledriver special attack! The only change I need to make to it is the visuals of the trampoline

Wasn't really motivated today. Just have this Mr.Virtual doodle.

As the optimizations carry on, I've added small things in between the tedious coding to avoid burnout. This is Shadow's advance move during his spindash attack, where he throws a quick chaos spear diagonally during the bounce back

Sure this is a meme recreation, but it gave me an idea. A big one. Speculate to your heart's content, but I will keep it a mystery until the concept turns into an executed idea

I can’t unhear this version of Coconut Mall now. Thanks RANVISION 😂

Here's a work in progress of the EXE battle optimizations. The phase 2 theme was a for fun addition that I'll probably revert before release unless everyone wants me to keep it
