    Umbrella Alpha Gameplay Discussion Thread

    I did not realize that pressing left & right (4 & 6) is what made Hungern grind his teeth; I thought any input direction would do. I've been rotating my control stick like I'm playing Mario Party, lol. I also really like the idea of the Hunger Meter being empty when Hungern is STARVING.

    Umbrella Alpha Gameplay Discussion Thread

    I agree with this sentiment, but thankfully, Hungern changes visually depending on his Hunger Status, so there isn't always a need to glace at their portrait. While OVERSTUFFED, Hungern gets the meat sweats (as a particle effect) and is paler in color. He briefly flashes orange upon reaching...

    How do you think Umbrella will play?

    Well, trapping opponents in a saliva bubble wasn't on my Umbrella bingo card, lol. If wonder if it can be mashed out of with inputs, like Stagger. Either way, seems like a heck of a way to lock down an opponent! I wanna see Big Band in a bubble.

    How do you think Umbrella will play?

    Given everything that's been shown so far, I guess any and all Bite attacks will be left to specials? As opposed to any normals? I always just kinda assumed that even Umbrella's normals would be affected by the Hunger Mechanic to some degree, but maybe not. That might be for the best, lol.

    That's the last of what I've put together. For now.

    Oooh, another Parasoul and Luz! :D If I had known there was a Palette Editor app, I totally would've used that instead, lol.

    Umbrella Palette Ideas (for Fun)

    A new addition to the playable cast means more opportunities for fun color palettes and references. Umbrella & Hungern are no exception! Here's a thread to share some ideas for palettes you'd like to see. Here is Umbrella & Hungern's color map, as shown on the Skullgirls Twitter: This tweet...

    How do you think Umbrella will play?

    Read someone on Twitter call it "Iris Reflector", lol. Y'know, considering the projectile's electric visual effects, I now can't help but wonder if it might have any specific interaction with the aforementioned water balls/bubbles and puddles...

    How do you think Umbrella will play?

    That is some eye candy. The projectile's barrier-like appearance might suggest that it has a higher priority than opposing projectiles. Maybe it could even have reflective properties? I'm surprised to see an electric (?) visual effect from her moveset. It looks really cool.

    OFFICIAL: Annie Release Update Notes

    Is there any information to offer regarding the Switch port at this time?

    How do you think Umbrella will play?

    I love all the little sketches they include in each stream announcement image, lol. The potential tantrum attack and apparent puddle mechanic (?) immediately make me think of B.B. Hood's Beautiful Memory (Darkstalkers).

    How do you think Umbrella will play?

    Here's a normal I'm really looking forward to seeing in action: Umbrella's jumping Heavy Kick. It was seen during the first animation stream, animated by the team's Lead Animator. It think it'd be neat if it works similarly to Robo-Fortune's j.HK (Aerial Screw), with the ability to alter...

    Umbrella Dream/Nightmare Attack Thread

    I think it'd be awesome if Hungern had a means of consuming/negating projectiles! It could tie into their Hunger Level mechanic and complement the way that Umbrella & Hungern are intended to be a less-mobile fighter.

    How do you think Umbrella will play?

    It seems likes Hungern's eyes will constantly be visible, so I agree that they could totally be used to indicate Hunger Level. However, Hungern is shown with half-closed eyelids while STARVING, so that might need a little more than color map work. If not a meter, than maybe just an on-screen...

    Oh, I wanna repost here too! I'm so excited to see how Umbrella will evolve throughout development once she enters the beta! The Steam post states that she's meant to be a character with limited mobility but great range. Umbrella joining the cast is all I've ever wanted, but as a Filia...
