Neat! All this time I thought that Gill's sprite mirroring was accomplished through a simple color palette trick, but this shows that it was accomplished through multiple layers. And since Urien's sprite uses the same graphics, it had to utilize the same trick. Very good channel!

Tchitchouan Inouane Hmm, it's a little difficult to explain just in text but I'll try. Basically, Gill is two sprites, a red sprite and a blue sprite. If Gill is facing to the left, the red part is in the back and the blue part is in the foreground. The blue sprite is a "half sprite" that only reaches as far as the border between Gill's red and blue parts. When he turns around, instead of switching colors, the two halves switch priority with each other. So when facing right, the red becomes the front "half sprite" and the blue becomes the back sprite. This is how the colors can remain on the correct side even when he turns. It's illustrated in the video above as it shows various attacks going through Urien and Gill right at the border between the red and blue half, so the priority of the attacker's sprite is somehow able to get below Gill's front half but not his back half, creating the "penetration" effect you see. It works on Urien because in order to save on memory they used most of Gill's graphics to create Urien. So instead of having a red and blue side, they just made both sides of Urien the same color. I hope that explains it. There may be a little more to it, I only just started to understand this myself.

OLD FIGHTING GAME SPRITES ARE ALWAYS MADE OUT OF LAYERS FOR THINGS LIKE THROWS WHERE A LIMB MUST GO BEHIND. GILL IS DEFINITELY PALETTE SWAP LOL =)

@@SHINBAXTER That is true for a few games, but "always" is too far of an exaggeration. The reality is that it's something that's only used when necessary. There is no other reason I can think of for half of Gill to be a layer. For a throw you would never need to bisect him up the center.

1:27 wow... now i am going to have to research “Hentai Kamen”... is it like, the Hentai Kamen Rider jumps into another person’s crotch to enter their Persona 5 Mind-Palace, like Mario jumps into a painting to collect that world’s Golden Stars in Super Mario 64?
