Another character whose original moveset has been out there for a while, so unfortunately no scrapped alt this time either, except with this one there's a WHOLE lot more to discuss behind the scenes! Such as, did you know the moveset that's currently on gamejolt is actually not the original?

The original version of the puppet's kit was somehow even less interesting, having no ice physics outside of lunging and forcing you to wait until your stamina was fully regenerated to sprint again. The next version would add those, but I still felt like Puppet's moveset was incoherent and rushed.

So for WAVE 2, I decided to rework it! Er, not at first, technically. Originally I was going to simply re-use another moveset I'd made for the Marionette for an entirely different asym, and while I won't go over what it was like exactly as it didn't end up being approved, I will say that when it came time to put everything to templates I realized the moveset didn't work for Pillar Chase at all.

As such, the moveset would be adapted. Taking the ideas present in Puppet's original moveset and the ideas present in the alternate Puppet moveset, they were mixed together to create the one you see now! I'm personally very proud of the finished result, and I hope you all are as well!

Oh yeah, and fun fact! The strings on Puppet's passive icons are designed to connect!
