Is TFH gonna get the same revisiting treatment when the new character drops in six days?

[@NiadHGR]

maybe when the games fixes its controller issues lol

[@71507]

Restarting my PC usually fixes that, but it is annoying. Still, there is a patch coming that might fix that as well.

[@Stichez]

@@NiadHGR Sajam didn't have the controller issues you're talking about when he played, so that's not really applicable to him potentially revisiting the game. Also, if you're having controller issues, there is a pinned topic on TFH's steam community board that's directly about that. The problems that come up there are usually a Windows problem, not the game's.

[@android19willpwn]

man Annie's animation just looks... different. I know Lab Zero kind of disintegrated a while back, do we know how much of the original staff is still working on the new characters, if any? Mike Z obviously isn't around anymore but he was never part of the animation team.

[@djhero0071]

She WAS originally a part of the mobile game that was made by Hidden Variable. As far as who is working on it, Hidden Variable I believe is helping with the console game development. Future Club, the game studio made up of people that previously worked at Lab Zero before Mike Z fired everyone, announced they're also working on the new DLC.

[@cktken3336]

Mariel Cartwright, the old lead animator and the genius behind the honkers and Beowulf’s cock jiggle is still on board. Her linkedin shows her as the Creative Director for Future Club. Most of the people from lab zero moved to Future Club so Skullgirls is still the Skullgirls we know. Annie was developed entirely for the mobile version in a completely different financial situation, so it’s unsurprising that there are some differences.

[@SmileRYO]

I think the worst parts are the beam super which just looks lackluster and the dive kick move that continues into multiple kicks looks stiff. Also they didn't go far enough with the space theme imo.

[@djhero0071]

I don’t know about the beam super but they definitely could’ve gone harder on the “of the stars” aspect of her character.

[@ChronoTata]

They began working on Annie even before Lab Zero blew up so it was mostly the same team working on it. On the art team, I think the key members that had left before Annie started to be developed are Alex Ahad (creator and lead concept artist) and Richard Suh (lead clean-up artist). The rest of the main art team seem to still be on board and are part of the new company Future Club, including both the lead and senior animators. There is definitely something off with Annie's animations though (for example, her idle stance clearly has less frames than usual - very noticeable if you compare her side-by-side with older characters). I think it might be due to them saving on animation budget by reducing number of in-between frames, but who knows.
