This is brilliant.

But seriously, though. Everyone looks great! I love the expressions, especially Eri's.

Administration removed Awakened Miki for being too similar to regular miki.  As such,Like Imas 1 idols, and Chihaya's Damaged skin, to get a Papercraft of this youll have to ask me to change my skin manually and you will have to go the Papercraft section and select "Megurine_Luka" as a skin.

With an update to Wrestle for You with the likes of CLIMAX!!! comes a new story mode. This story mode is a bit more......complex than last time. Instead of one story, there are four.

Haruka and Hibiki's Story
Its been six months since Haruka became the JWSF's Celebrity Champion. However, a brand new tournament has approached and Haruka must start all over in order to defend her title as champion. Haruka sets off to train herself to keep the title that she oh-so-deserved, but not without a little help. Enter Hibiki Ganaha, who used to wrestle for Takane, decides to join Haruka as her new tag partner after the large amounts of support the two gave each other during the last tournament. Haruka accepts Hibiki as her new partner. Can the two make it to the top and defend Haruka's status as champion?

Characters Featured: Haruka, Hibiki, Chihaya, Azusa, Miki, Ritsuko

Ai and Eri's Story
After being rather upset of being shafted from the first tournament early on, Ai and Eri decide to go through intensive training in order to improve themselves and actually make progress in this new tournament six months later. With the help of their friends and supporters, Ai and Eri actually make progress in this tournament. However, conflict arises when they find out their best friend, Ryo, has not only joined the tournament, but has teamed up with Makoto Kikuchi, effectively making them rivals throughout the tournament. How will the girls get themselves out of this problem?

Characters featured: Ai, Eri, Ryo, Makoto, Yukiho, Miku (Maekawa)

Ellen and Nicole's Story
Yes, the JWSF Rivals finally appear in their own storyline. After seeing the amazing performances of 765Pro in the last tournament, Ellen decides to join this tournament as a competitor to see what they all got. However, he usual teammates Ayako and Marie are way too busy with their own lives. Ellen has to think of somebody else who can fill in. She goes up to the next best person, her girlfriend, Nicole Sanchez. However, they both know that Nicole retired after a near-fatal cage match a year ago, which conflicts Nicole greatly. She must now decide whether she wishes to come back to the JWSF or leave Ellen hanging.

Characters featured: Ellen, Nicole, Ayako, Marie, Kotori, Yayoi, Melissa, Alex, Jamie, Tanaka

Iori and Shiho's Story
Unlike the original, the villains get their own side of the story here. Takane hears of the new tournament and assembles her old team. However, she quickly realizes that Iori is the only one left after Hibiki and Azusa were defected. Iori has the idea of bringing in one of the backup dancers they met at the Arena Live's Summer Training (the events of the movie) as a potential teammate. Takane approves and Iori starts scouting out. Iori eventually remembers a girl by the name of Shiho Kitazawa, in which they had a fairly close bond with. Shiho at first rejects the idea, but then accepts it when she realizes that she has nothing better to do. Thus Iori and Shiho pair off and attempt to bring Takane's new plan into motion. However, Takane then hires the Jougasaki Sisters as her new teammates and they overshadow the Minase/Kitazawa Duo in every way possible. Will Takane still find a use for these two or will the Jougasaki Sisters serve as their permanent replacements?

Characters featured: Iori, Shiho, Takane, Mika, Rika, Leon

Bro, you're killing me with excitement for this game. Heattokun too.

All the new story modes seem really awesome! I can't wait for this to be legit so I can actually play it.

Because seriously. This must be legit.

Dunno if it's any help, but my sister found an app on the 3DS nintendo store that essentially lets you make your own video games. Maybe a similar app exists elsewhere?

However, conflict arises when they find out their best friend, Ryo, has not only joined the tournament, but has teamed up with Makoto Kikuchi, effectively making them rivals throughout the tournament.

KISS! KISS! KISS! KISS! KISS! KISS! GET MARRIED!!!
I'm sorry, OTP right there.

Wrestle for You CLIMAX!! has a more complex story mode than the original due to adding more than one story. I've already established this. To make it more replayable, I decided to give all four stories multiple endings. Each story has a total of three endings: Normal, Bad, and Joke. These can be achieved depending on what choices were made during the storyline or the results of certain battles. You need the Good Ending for each story to unlock the True Ending of the game, but the other two are mandatory for 100% Completion. Using the Iori/Shiho story as an example.....


Normal Ending
The canon ending. This ending is the one that is considered official in terms of the Wrestle for You storyline.

You have to win every single match and choose the right decisions when asked particular questions. If successful, then there will be a tag-team match between Iori and Shiho vs the Jougasaki Sisters. You must win this match to get the Good Ending Route. The match will be at a minor standstill until Mika uses a weapon she found to horribly injure Shiho, causing her to go to the hospital. Iori get furious and goes to Takane to tell her to stop. Takane refuses as she feels that the Jougasaki Sisters have been much more useful than the Minase/Kitazawa duo will ever be. Iori chooses to defect as Leon (Takane's rival) takes Iori in. Soon after, Shiho makes a full recovery and challenges Mika to a No Holds Barred rematch only between them. Iori warns Shiho that this could be a terrible idea, but Shiho is too blinded by revenge to care. Leon advises that Iori let Shiho do her thing as she knows what she's doing. The final battle is Shiho vs Mika in a No Holds Barred Cage Match.

Bad Ending
The worst possible ending. Usually ending in complete depression or horror, the bad ending is where it shows that you screwed up in your decision making and HAVE to do it again. However, it's not all bad......

This route can only be achieved if you lose the tag-team match against the Jougasaki Sisters. The same thing will occur with Mika getting the upper-hand on Shiho, but instead, Shiho will actually DIE from her injuries, causing Iori to have a mental breakdown and isolate herself as she has lost a friend for something as stupid as a pro wrestling match, ending the story on a horrid, depressing conclusion..................until Iori and Shiho are brought into Tanaka and Takagi's office for an advice channel similar to the "Help Me, Professor Kokonoe" segments from BlazBlue Continuum Shift where the two Presidents and the two Girls will have a humorous skit while the Presidents give you a hint as to how to get the Good Ending.

Joke Ending
This is where shit gets weeeeird. In the Joke Endings, anything can happen....and hilarity will ensue. These endings are meant for a good laugh or a good WTF moment and they can be as supernatural and wacky as one can get.

To get this ending, you must choose the latter option in a choice for Iori between "Train Harder with Shiho" or "We Should Check How Charles is Doing". Iori will take Shiho to her mansion where the two will meet up with Charles who has a bunch of other characters from the game (Haruka, Hibiki, Ellen, Nicole, Ai, and Eri) in surrounding seats. Its an intervention for Iori and Shiho's..............relationship. (The game will have intentional ship teasing between these two which will lead up to this) Both girls are in complete denial while everybody else tries to convince them that these feelings are not bad at all. Hilarity Ensues, especially with Iori's tsundere tendencies really starting to show here.

[MetalPredat0r]

A little bit of "promotional art" (for a game that isn't real yet. ) for Wreslte For You CLIMAX!! which shows that Aazusa has indeed switched sides and is partnered up with Chihaya. Chihaya only has two reasons as to why this MIGHT not end so well.......



(This was a long time when it came to finishing this, mainly due to procrastination. . I had this drawing made around the time I announced CLIMAX!! and just finished it today. Sorry bout that.)

[MetalPredat0r]

This more of a possible concept rather than confirmation due to me not knowing how much this can fit into the actual game. Maybe this can be saved for a full sequel.

Not impressed with the characters in this game? Wish you could have such and such in the ring that isn't from iM@S? Ever wanted to get into the ring yourself? Well you can with.......

CREATE-AN-IDOL MODE

Yup! Complete Character Customization! You can customize your girl's outfit, design, moveset, voice, just about anything involving her! With multiple options to choose from as well as more to unlock when playing the game. Build your character from the ground-up with a variety of choices for height, weight, and physical appearance. Then give her a moveset from the pool of just about every single special move from the game from every character. Then, you can even customize how she sounds. Over a dozen different voice packs are available for multiple personalities including: Cocky, Gentle, Shy, Upbeat, Cutesy, Cynical, Stoic, and even Kitten! This included with various sound editing to make her sound the way you want her to.

Why stop at making yourself? You can customize the character to resemble your own original characters! Or even add some other anime/manga/video game characters into the mix! Hell, celebrities can even be made for the game! The amount of possibilities with customization is nearly endless!

(So should this be in CLIMAX!! or should it be saved for a possible Wrestle For You 2?)

[MetalPredat0r]

What's a modern-day fighting game (or any game that involves excessive beating the crap out of opponents in multiplayer) without some online capabilities and sure enough, Wrestle for You will have plenty of online-related content. In terms of netcode, if this game ever gets made, I wish for the netcode to run off of GGPO, which is the same netcode server as Darkstalkers Resurrection, Marvel vs Capcom Origins, and Skullgirls.

REPLAY CHANNEL

Wrestle for You will allow you to record both offline and online matches so that you can view them at your leisure. However, the maximum time for the game to save a replay is 10 minutes. It cannot save matches that are longer than that time. You can also download replays from other players from the game's replay channel as a way of analyzing the playstyles of other people and try to improve your own skills. Also, you can take your replays and upload them to YouTube (as long as you have a Google account) and even Miiverse (only on the Wii U version)! While watching a replay, you can pause, fast-forward, rewind, and even skip through the video to further help in analyzing how others play the game.

RANKED MATCHES

As with many other fighting games, Ranked Matches are those that count toward your overall ranking compared to the rest of the world. You can either join some other player or create a match and fight. However, certain elements of the game such as items and custom characters cannot be used in Ranked Matches.

PLAYER MATCHES

Player Matches are essentially the game's offline versus mode, but with online capabilities. You can create lobbies of up to 16 players on online lobby mode. You can even invite a friend over to play the game online. What I would like to do for the game (if able to) is have a feature that allows people to play the game online via invite even if they do not own the game themselves. They would probably be limited to the idols of 765Pro, 876Pro, and Miku, but its still something. I want to do this as I thought that FarCry 4, which is gonna have that exact feature, really impressed me with that at E3 this year. Also, except for in online lobbies and unlike ranked matches, you can rematch with your opponent however many times you want.

JAIL

As a method of handling people who disconnect too often during an online match (i.e. ragequitters), there is a special punishment for them. A feature used in Killer Instinct for the Xbox One, players with a higher disconnect-to-complete match ratio of 55% or higher, will be sent to Jail. Jail has them only find matches with other people in jail for 24 hours. Once the 24 hours are up, they will be allowed to match with anyone again unless they keep up this high rate. Then they will be sent back to Jail for an extra 24 hours in addition to the standard 24 hours. You can have up to five jail sentences for the maximum limit to be in Jail, meaning the maximum time one can be sentenced to Jail is 120 Hours.

I hope you enjoy these Online Modes.

Since I'm too lazy to quote everything, I'll just say I'm loving this to death.

I don't know if it'll really help, but I have discovered a program that lets you make your own fighting game with unique moves and unique characters, called EF-12. I think it costs $1.00 to the the full version, but hey, that's still really cheap!

Can you send a link? Cuz I wanna know if it supports use for a 3D Fighter. Plus, I am taking a one-week course on Game Art and Animation next week so I could use that to make a small little "tech demo" if I ever get the chance. Btw, I'm starting to think Create-An-Idol should be saved for a potential sequel, since this one has so many dang characters and I want the sequel to actually have a smaller roster.

There's a link to a description and download/purchase of the program so you can take a look. Looks like it'll let you create 3D characters on a different program and import them in.
Good luck and have fun, in terms of that one-week course!

Hmm...yeah, I can agree with that, actually. Though I do like a big character roster personally, I can see where it'd just get too crowded.

[MetalPredat0r]

No updates since June? I think I'll fix that........

I looked back at some of the characters' attires and some of them I grew to loathe. The biggest offender being Megumi Tokoro. Her outfit just looked too plain, too rushed, and I also didn't like how Megumi herself came out. If only I could just re-do it..... Oh wait.....



MUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCH better! This is Megumi's FINAL design for Wrestle for You! which is based on an outfit that was originally going to be an alternate costume, but I decided "That outfit is WAY too good to make an alt., so I'll just change the default. It wouldn't hurt anybody." and did just that. Hope you guys like it!

[Amazing_Grace]

Ooh, I like it a lot!

Megumi looks great here, from the facial expression to the pose to the body proportions. Good work!

[MetalPredat0r]

One piece of advice for if you ever wanna draw Megumi, for the love of god, draw her facing the left. Her bangs are SO hard to draw when she's facing right, which I learned the hard way!

[MetalPredat0r]

Updating this topic further with two pieces of art.


This first piece is of a cutscene visual during the Ai/Eri Storyline in Wrestle for You! CLIMAX!! Similar to visual novels, these visual arts will be sprinkled into the story mode for added visual variety. In addition, some storylines will connect to each other and certain events may occur at the same time similar to Sonic Adventure.


This other piece is of a scrapped mechanic, the Focus Attack from Street Fighter IV. There may be a smiliar mechanic to replace it, but the Focus Attack in itself will not be in the final game. Don't worry, Yukiho will STILL use her shovel as an attack, so not all is lost. 

That's all the updates on W4U for today!
