I suppose I can say I'm a co-dev. But yes, I'm handling a lot of the polish once out of the oven so Shredditz can stay focused on making new content. Otherwise I'd be bombarding with feedback on the near-daily.
Some may have noticed that the whole accurate to the original games bit is no longer present on the front page. I could have helped achieve that with all the notes I've taken years ago, but with the addition of the Genesis roster underway I decided that we should give the existing characters some new tools to keep them as interesting. Rest assured we both seek to keep following the GG games in spirit. We did our best to emulate the characters up to a certain extent for our baseline and worked from there. Combos will be remain short and simple, but more open than in the originals.
I'm not too worried about balance as much as I'm trying to make sure everyone feels good (without being broken of course). Surely something we didn't take into account will come up if there are people who try to take this seriously, but all in all, fun is the goal here and I hope it stays that way even after players start breaking it down.
