Alex Kidd (Alex Kidd) Discussion

ALEX KIDD FOR CRUSADE!



First appearence: Alex Kidd in Miracle World (1986)
Last appearence: Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed (2012)

so lets start. i will give the reason why.

Alex kidd was SEGA mascot before Sonic, and he is SEGA master system mascot wich is a console mascot just like Crash bandicoot, he is living in Sonic's shadow, he was here before sonic exist in 1986 in the old generation of gaming, he had more than 8 games and he appeared in more than 15 games, he is better than having a 2nd Sonic character or any other SEGA chraracters, and he is the 2nd most important character in SEGA history, he was also Mario rival before Sonic, not only this but he is Sonic rival too.

all of his games was released in the wii eshop.

"i debuted as Sega's mascot, and went head-to-head against N*ntendo's Mar*o." -Alex kidd said this in Segaga on dreamcast back in 2001

Moveset: (NOT FINAL)

Neutral-Special:

This move wont deal any damage but it will change the smash attacks into rock hand and it has a different power and effect but if you click neutral attack again it will change into a different type of hand mode.

This move wont deal any damage but it will change the smash attacks into paper hand and it has a different power and effect but if you click neutral attack again it will change into a different type of hand mode.

This move wont deal any damage but it will change the smash attacks into scissors hand and it has a different power and effect but if you click neutral attack again it will change into a different type of hand mode.

Side-Smash:

its very powerful but it wont hit something far.

Its not powerful but it can blow people away from you.

Its like any normal side smash its not powerful or weak but it will leave the person that you did attack paralayzed for few seconds like Zero Suit Samus gun.

Side-B: Poripoto Bike:
A lighter, less powerfull bike than Wario's. It does have more speed, which is beneficial for recovery. It's also easier to pick up and carry around and doesn't leave parts when it's destroyed.


Up-Smash:

its very powerful but it wont hit something far.

Its not powerful but it can blow people away from you.

Its like any normal up smash its not powerful or weak but it will leave the person that you did attack paralayzed for few seconds like Zero Suit Samus gun.

Up-B:

Alex Kidd will turn into a fireball and goes up so fast.

you can control its direction only a little bit also its a strong attack if it hits when he is a fireball.

Down-Smash:

its very powerful but it wont hit something far.

Its not powerful but it can blow people away from you.

Its like any normal down smash its not powerful or weak but it will leave the person that you did attack paralayzed for few seconds like Zero Suit Samus gun.

Dash-Attack:

Alex Kidd will turn into tornado, when you hit someone the character goes up.

Down-B: Janken:
Attack by randomly presenting Rock, Scissors or Paper. Rock has Rock effect, Scissors has Electric effect and Paper has wind effect.

Neutral-Air-Attack:

just like Mario neutral air attack but it deals more damage than him.

Down-Air-Attack:
Similar to Greninja down air but when it lands it goes up.


Final Smash: Peticopter:
Hop into your Peticopter and use A to shoot at your opponents. You won't flinch.


Alex is easily sent flying and quite slow. However, he compensates that with jump-height and power. Alex is able to crawl.


Intro: Alex arrives on his Poripoto Bike, similar to Wario's intro.

Taunt 1: Eat Hamburger or Riceball (random)
Taunt 2: Rock his fist as if he was playing Janken
Taunt 3: Present Stone, Scissors or Paper towards the viewer (random)


Alt. costumes are: Red Jumpsuit (Enchanted Castle), Alt Red Jumpsuit (Miracle World, RT), Stella's Jumpsuit (BT), Egul's Jumpsuit, Green Jumpsuit (GT)

also he have a sword to fight.

other animations:
Air:


Down:


Fall (after using up B):


Run (i know its kinda weird running animation but i was confused while making this...):

also i am working on Alex Kidd sprites recently

but sadly i will take long time until i finish it because school has started on this week i dont have enogh time

he would fit pretty well as another sega rep,since he's the original mascot (if you don't count opa-opa :v)

I considered Alex Kidd at one point, but he's so... boring. What makes his playstyle unique? You say he's slow and light but has a good amount of power, but that seems like a typical glass cannon.

Eh, I actually think that Alex Kidd deserves to be in Crusade even more than Ristar, and Ristar is already playable in Crusade, soooooooooooooooooo...

I feel that Jankun should play a bigger role in his move-set. Too bad I can't think of something....

While the moveset is decent enough, and I like what you did with the sprites, I feel that the moveset is a bit lackluster. If I may suggest some ideas:
- In the Alex Kidd games, primarily Miracle World and Enchanted Castle, the Janken matches were based on chance. Why not incorporate a mechanic that revolves around this?
-- Also, in Enchanted Castle, if you lose a match, a weight would land on Alex. Why not incorporate that into his moveset via down smash or down special?
Ex:
-Just adding special moves and taunts probably doesn't help the devs much if they decide to include Alex Kidd. Try fleshing out the moveset even more to include standard attacks, smashes and aerials.
Some suggestible sources I would use includes:
-His games (primarily Enchanted Castle and Miracle World; you could also use his sword from Shinobi World in some attacks)
-Some artwork I found of him portrays some possible attacks, such as this one:

-Try using some of his crossover appearences in the moveset. Some examples includes "Sega Superstars Tennis" and "Sega and Allstars Racing/Transformed".
--You could probably use his appearance in Archie Comics's "Worlds Unite" as a possible source for attacks.
--In addition, you could probably give him a move that essentially doesn't belong to him. For example, Stella, Alex's companion in the Lost Stars, possibly had the ability to fling stars like shuriken (as shown in some art for Worlds Unite). That could be a possible side special, instead of the bike (which to me, sounds kind of bland, sorry).

Overall, interesting moveset (as of now) and I hope that the information above can assist you.




....Oh, and I also support.

I also will support, if the moveset will be improved.

i will think of it, but where can i see Archie Comics's "Worlds Unite"?

trust me i have alot of idea about Alex Kidd and you will see it soon and i can give him an ability that none character does have it he would be interesting

You have to buy it in order to see it.

While that is true, you can view pieces of it in "Megabeatman's True Blue Reviews" channel on YouTube, specifcally, parts 9 to 12 (when Alex Kidd actually makes his debut).

done making the down smash, i need to update the shoes

I'm pretty sure those sprites won't be used, but at least they give a good idea of the moveset.

this is just the beginning i havent show the ability that none other smash fighter has i have alot of ideas in my head.

look at my first post i did animate Alex Kidd sprites i am working on more sprites, my project is not dead, i must complete it!.
and i fixed the shoes

There's no need to make the sprites. They will not be used.

i am not making these to beg people to use it or anything but i just want to share ideas (and could make people more intersted about Alex Kidd appearing in a real smash game and gets more supporters), i will use these sprites for something else in the future, not only me but other people wouldnt find any better Alex Kidd fighting sprites better than me (unless if someone made a better sprites for him than me wich i havent seen yet), but after i release my complete/full Alex Kidd sprites you would see alot of people comes to me and ask me to feature my Alex Kidd sprites in their videos (mostly from europe). Alex Kidd was not the only sprites that i was working on but i finished making improved Geno sprites as well (with a freind) and guess what, these Geno sprites will be featured in SMBZ by Alvin-Earthworm, it could happen the same to my Alex Kidd sprites but with a different person.

You seem very egotastic about this. Don't expect everyone to flock to you for Alex Kidd sprites.

Also, I know you, just so you know. From the Social thread. It's the President.

Why not just make the whole moveset now and the sprites later? Sprites will be no good without a moveset to base them on.

Also, why do you expect me to believe Alvin will have your Geno sprites in? He has said nothing about Geno.

i am not saying "everybody will use it!!" but i can easily predict in the future that there will be people would come to me to use them.

because i am not sure about all the moveset in my head until i agree about spriting them, i can post all the moveset in my head right now but it wont really be my final ideas about his moveset, i need more time to be more creative about his moveset and showing it in the best way as i can.

because he said he couldnt find a better Geno sprites (he was going to use the paper Geno style sprites and he also said he is trying to find a better Geno Sprites if he looked hard enogh) but then i showed him my sprites (and a friend) and he said "Ah nice. These are pretty good. I may consider using these actually. I'll keep hold of them until I need them." i also got few comments from other people in the comments that were shocked by seeing these Geno sprites and they are hyped for seeing these sprites being used in SMBZ after seeing Alvin-Earthworm reply to me, he already confirmed that Geno will appear in SMBZ but in Smithy Saga season i asked him.

Okay, makes sense, but why not just post a rough draft of the moveset.

Also he said he'd consider using them. He did not say he WILL be using them. Better Geno sprites may come along, you never know. But I mean, nice job on making Alvin like your sprites. They must be good.

it has been couple of months since i posted any new update about my Alex Kidd sprites but now i got 2 weeks free time, i will make more sprites now!  
i finished making Alex kidd down-air check the first post if you want to see it!
EDIT: i also finished making Alex kidd neutral-special.
