Yatagarasu Donjon Game

Nocturnal

I did a search on this game and got nothing here so I figured I would let everyone know about it. Looks pretty interesting and the animations are pretty nice.

MOB712

I look at this and for some reason think 3rd Strike or Garou

09er

I'll keep my eyes on this.

Hanzo looks like Angel from KOF.

pootnannies

looks interesting...

Iduno

Looks like a game worth keeping an eye on.

Black Shroud

No, Hanzo looks like Rasetsu Shiki without a braid and with scarf

CPhame

Whoa

Aw, only four characters so far (from the youtube demo on the website). Will keep an eye on now, thanks sir!

Gravelneed

I really like the animation on this. I definitely like what I see. It has alotta of potential.

Lane

Looks good, I'd like to see more of the game mechanics.

Xiii

Interested.

Atb_555

I hope it has a good netplay code. Looks very interesting!

EDIT: wait a minute looking at the dev blog links, was Styleos a dude who designed K' in KoF?

furix

Looks awrite

Henaki

wow this game looks really good, near professional.

Aion

Looks great. Only complaint is that the moves are too damn generic. If that's worked on it could turn out real good.

Ghost Cobra

nice thx for heads up on this!

frustratedsquirrel

Looks really solid. I like the characters and the art. Music is pretty cool too. My only complaint is that it seems a bit slow and floaty from the looks of things.

Hayama Akito

Damn! and im at work now... i will check it out soon, but im somewhat hyped.

EDIT: Im almost very sure that the illustrator is, indeed, the same illustrator of KOF99/00 and Daraku Tenshi.

ReXXXSoprano

This looks too good. I'm definitely keeping an eye on this.

clue2025

Wow I like. Any idea how many buttons, how mechanics work, any of that? Sorry I didn't read the rest.

yay Dandy J already posted in here, I'll have someone to play new donjon with

Hecatom

it looks interesting

NegroNinja

I'm in and I'm maining Jyozumaru(?).

Zinac

I've been keeping up to date with the dev's blog. They sold a demo at Summer Comiket but i've never been able to find a copy.

yourmother

Looks like dude likes 3s. I see parries, and I'm pretty sure there's even a red parry at around 1:50 in this vid.

BANSHI

i'd play it

frustratedsquirrel

the combo counter/damage counter seems unusual. It gives two numbers per hit. Looks a bit cluttered but it leads me to think that it might have a deeper function.

And blagh this game is beautiful. I just wish it didn't look so basic in terms of character personality. Give us some flashy/unique attacks to further show off that gorgeous animation.

Yeah, plenty of parries on the second fight. I hope there are parry whiffs.

Game seems slow, though.

AtTheGates

i did a write up for www.hardedge.org a while ago, here's what i got:

- 6 buttons, 2 punches, 2 kicks, 2 parries (high and low).
- parry has no whiff anim. pseudo option selects should be possible. mashing parry doesn't help ot seems.
- EX moves, that often juggle or allow super juggles
- there are super jumps
- dashes are extremely slow and cannot be canceled at all.
- there are chain combos, but only with light hits. didn't find any major links into heavy attacks so far.
- throw is LP+LK
- HP+HK is a slow unblockable.



Hanzo:
Normals:
- 6LK = step kick. 6LK~LP for kara throw.
- 3HK = sweep.
- 2HK = "c.mk"
- 6HK = kick with high range.
- j.LK = crossup, but low hit stun.

Moves:
- 41236LP/HP/PP: command dash. EX version goes through enemy.
- 214LK/HK/KK: a launcher. Juggling with a super is possible, but sucks, damage-wise.
- [2].8+LP/HP/PP - Command Throw. because of the D,U charge, best used after command dash.
- 23623K: Rush Super.

combos:
- heavy hits combo into everything
- all light hits combo into LK launcher or super.

- combos into super:
- any heavy hit
- 2LP, 2LP, 23623K
- 5LP/2LP, 5LK, 23623K <- kann man einfach buffern: 2LP, 36LK, 23K.



pseudo fei long:

normals:
- j.LK - crossup, only little hit-stun

- 5A,5A - auto chain. the 2nd 5A has a different animation. special & super cancel.
- 5B, 5B. auto chain. the 2nd 5B has a different animation. super cancel only.
- 5C(f) - super cancel only
- 5D(f) - no cancel, but good range
- 3C - sweep
- 2C - "c.mk"

specials:
236LP/HP/PP x 3: rekkas. EX-Rekkas have up to 5 Hits, have to be done fast. normal rekkas do NOT combo after light hits.
623LK/HK/KK: dragonkick (anti air). Combos from light hits, eg. 5A,5A or 2B.
23623K: 3-Hit Rush Super. juggles rather badly.

Combos:
- 2HK, LP or HP Rekkas
- any close heavy hit into Super / Rekkas / dragonkick
- any light hit into dragonkick

- 2A,2B, EX Rekkas / Super
-5A,5A, EX Rekkas / Super
- 5B,5B, Super
- LK, LP, LK-LK, Super
- 5C(f), Super

- anti air 623K, super. only 1 Hit of the super connects.



Gou AKA Ryu/Ken chara no.1

6HK - jumping kick, probably invulnerable to throws, can be canceled into specials during its recovery. less damage than HP/HK, therefore probably only good for traps or hit confirm.
j.HK - good Crossup (!)


236LP/HP/PP: projectile.
214LK/HK/KK: Ken's Tatsumaki. EX-Version Knocks down & initiates Juggle State, but deals the same damage as the HK-Version. combos reliably from light hits.
623LP/HP/PP: SRK.

23623P: Shinku Hadoken

Combos:
- all heavy hits into Hado / tatsu / srk
- 6HK, SRK or Super
- crossup j.HK as a combo starter.

- 236PP combos into Super
example: j.HK, \/, 5HP(c), 236PP, link super

- 214KK combos into super, but hardly worth the damage.

- 2LK, 2LK is a chain (only goh and crow can chain 2LK into 2LK)
2LK, 2LK, 214LK
2LK, 2LK, super
3x2LK, Super is also possible (without crossup). deals as much damage as 2HP into super.

3x2LK, 623HP combos against crow (didn't test against other charas yet)

- max range 2LK,Super combos.


from dizlord:
Crow:
Normals:
j.HK - Crossup
2HK - ist auch hier "c.mk"
3HK - Sweep
6HK - Overhead, chained in 623P or 236236K

Moves:
236LP/HP/PP - projectile, LP is slower than HP, EX has juggle property
623LP/HP/PP - SHORYUKEN!!
214LK/HK/KK - LK seems to be the best verison, juggles and can be juggled after.
236236K - Shoryureppa super

Combos:
6HK, 236236K
2LKx2, 236236K
j.HK, 5HP, 214LK, 214LK, 236236K
any strong move in 214LK, 236PP, 236236K
2LKx2, 2LP, 214PP, 236236K



my tier list so far:
slight edge: Gou & Crow
normal: Hanzo & pseudo fei long

gou & crow both have a heavy hit as a crossup (with a generous hitbox), can chain c.LK into itself and have strong combos from various ranges, including easy hit confirms.

The game looks nice to be honest, although it seems slow as graupel said before, the backgrounds are well done, the parries, Ex moves and super jumps are a nice touch too, I will an keep an eye on the website for any update, and thanks for the information AtTheGates.

Thank you for the game info sir. I linked your post to the first post so people can get to it easier. Thanks.

how did you get to play this? is there a demo?

and what's the point in have a button just for parries if there's no start up animation?

Nocturnal

Looks like they added 2 new characters to the roster. Here is a pic:

http://homepage3.nifty.com/shizapen/image/hinashimo.JPG

They both will be able to used sword weapons according to the new creator's blog. I add the link the picture came from on the first post of this thread. Seems like they are going to announce when the new version demo will be out. I'll keep you guys posted soon as they post dates.

Denied link, go with http://homepage3.nifty.com/shizapen/image/hinashimo.JPG. Thanks for the heads up though, I'm interested in seeing what comes of this game.

Nocturnal

Weird it works for me. I'll fix the post. Thx.

Aria

Yeah, this looks like it's got potential. Hopefully we'd get a playable demo of this to try soon enough. Good to see Styleos is still working in the genre; I liked his designs/spirtework for the KoF NESTS characters.

CPhame

Hell yeah, sword girls!

NegroNinja

new chars lookin hot, hope they got a demo vid up soon..or maybe just a demo

ilitirit

Looks like there's been lots of recent development.

Anyone up for a translation?
http://hotapen.blog111.fc2.com/

What I got from Google Translate:
Wide screen mode
Commentary (announcer?)
Persistent match statistics? (tracking wins/losses between sessions)
Fixed a few input bugs
Move recorder for training mode
Adjustable input delay?
PC crashed, but managed to restore from backup?

Looked good till I saw a parry.....I'm out.

frustratedsquirrel

That character art is actually really good. I wonder who the artist is? And if they're the same person doing the animations?

Xiii

I think having a parry button is bad for the game if it removes the risk of parrying. I'm still excited for the end of the month for this game, I still think the game should be a little bit faster though.

This is silly. Having a button probably means that you can whiff parries, unlike SF3 where they basically had no risk since you could just jam forwards on the stick with no animation and then go back to blocking or w/e.

Well...

That and people often tap forward and down multiple times to bait out parries, but anytime you're not in back or db, you're vulnerable to getting hit. Parrying isn't as free as most people think it is in 3S.

pootnannies

i'm probably going to be buying this for the animation alone. hopefully if there's anything broken gameplay-wise, they'll have patches for it.

graupel

What's the point of having buttons just for parries if they can't be whiffed?

Cronopio

Yeah that sounds utterly retarded. Looks pretty though.

Xiii

I'm not even sure where you'd be able to buy this game at this point. Play-Asia maybe? The google translation makes it look like you can only get it from small shops that carry doujin-games.

Maybe a very kind SRK member could sell it to us? :D

I'm willing to pay more than the 1000 yen for it + shipping.
