Ultraman Pack

[Supa]

A few days ago, I knew nothing about Ultraman.

But it was suggested by Spacer One and requested by Gojira54, so I couldn't anything else but make some Ultraman units for Modzilla !

Shin Hayata & Ultraman

Spoiler :

From http://ultra.wikia.com

Shin Hayata, the Science Patrol's brave, no-nonsense deputy captain, is Ultra Man's human host on Earth. When the radioactive archosaur Bemular attacked Earth, Ultraman's Travel Sphere crashed into Hayata's Delta VTOL. Ultraman merged their lives to keep Hayata from dying and gave him a microphone-like device he called a "beta capsule." Whenever he was in trouble, and the resources of the Science Patrol were not enough to help him, Hayata would ignite the beta capsule to transform into Ultra Man by using his right thumb to depress the red ignition button on the capsule's side.

Like many other ultra-men, the being called Ultra Man on Earth used to be a soldier stationed on a planet located in the nebula M78, "beyond the Fortieth Galaxy." But when their planet's primary disintegrated, they began to use an artificial sun that caused the inhabitants to 'evolve' into what the ultra-men look like today. He was a normal soldier who first came to Earth to protect it from various monsters that were threatening it after the radioactive archosaur Bemular, whom he was attempting to transport to M90 for disposal, escaped from him and headed for Earth.

Ryoko Hoshi & Ultra Yullian

Spoiler :

From http://ultra.wikia.com

80 is joined on Earth by the Princess of the Land of Light (the Ultra Planet), Yullian (ユリアンYurian?), 80's childhood friend (and in Ultraman: Super Fighter Legend, his girlfriend). She originally comes to Earth to warn 80 that King Galtan the Great is planning to assassinate him, but she ends up sticking around for a while and joins UGM (replacing Emi Jouno, who had been killed in action). She assumes the identity of Ryoko Hoshi. While not using any attacks as Yullian (other than Double Power, a combined attack with 80), she does shoot the Princess Ray, an infrared beam fired from the fingertips, as Ryoko.

That's a total of 4 units.

Great stuff, Supa! The Star Wars nerd in me says that Shin Hayata could pass as a Rebel Pilot with that orange suit. I wonder if the Superhero mod could use these units' talents?

 

[Gojira54]

Supa,

This is great work as always! I am kind of at a loss of words about what to say about Spacer One, but I am sure he would have loved this! He was really pushing me to put Ultraman in Modzilla, and now, thanks to you, it will be!

I love that you split it into 4 units too, making this usable for many other scenarios - the Shin and Ryoko units I think would fit well as a generic unit in the Superhero mod, Deth - Star Wars too!

 

[MeteorPunch]

Nice units.

 

[Grandraem]

As with your other units, these are wonderful! Great job with them!

 

[Gary Childress]

Nice Ultraanimations!

I was thinking that too, and the girl might work as a Star Trek officer with a little recoloring.

Great units, I also know nothing about Ultraman, but the animations are cool

 

[Goldflash]

I saw that "Ultraman PAck"Was the top thread in the units subforum and went "Oh, Supa made new units!"

 

[Supa]

Thanks guys !

 

[Vuldacon]

These are indeed Supa... Well Done Supa

 

[Blue Monkey]

Both the transforms and the energy attacks are superb.

I've only looked at the previews so far. Were you able to include the blue blinking light in his chest (power indicator), at least in the death animation? What about a flight animation to go with giving him the paratrooper flag.

Quoting Wikipedia on the kaiju in the show: "The principals were played by famous stunt actor Haruo Nakajima, who operated the original Godzilla."

 

[Supa]

The Ultraman does have his light changing color. Blue in all anims but AttackB, where it's red and Death where it's going black. I'm not sure you can see it at civ-scale, even daikaiju scale. But it's there !

I might think about a paradrop animation. Ultraman lands, then switches to human host. Good idea.

Edit :

I watched the preview : You definitely can see the jewel going from blue to red at the end of the close combat attacks.

I just didn't look carefully enough. A great tribute to spacer One as well as a contribution to the modzilla.

Very cool units.

I remember waking up way too early during 7th grade to watch old episodes of Ultraman.

 

[T-mun]

Oops! I had missed this one, I thought it was some new Super Meat Boy I had already seen. How does the "falling forward" death anim look in-game ? Very nice pack anyway, and a very unusual one!

 

[Supa]

Glad you like it, Utahjazz! It's all thanks to your tutorial I've began making units back in 2005.

Themanuneed > Well, it looks good. If you're afraid it might fall over the enemy unit, you shouldn't : Both units jump backward for AttackB and thus there is plenty space to fall without touching the opponent.

 

[T-mun]

And the opponent doesn't even touch them, because they have jumped backwards

 

[Supa]

It doesn't matter for shooting units. ;-)

For others, it doesn't really matter either in fact. I've tested it against several units, such as my daikaiju units, Firaxis dinosaurs, etc. Nothing annoyed me.

It wouldn't the first time a Knight would beat the air right in front of another Knight rather the opponent itself. You can't really make them connect in a 2D game, especially when there is so many unit makers doing it their way.

 

[Takhisis]

Wow, nice. I like the morph/swell effect.
